Study: Shift to Hospice Care Often Comes Too Late
"This was not what I expected to see," Teno said. "We've done a good job improving the numbers of people receiving hospice care, but the pattern of care we see in this study suggests that hospice has become an add-on treatment to aggressive care."
Teno said there is "a complex set of reasons" why this is occurring. One reason can be a sudden change in health status that doesn't leave people time to prepare. Another reason is that people are referred late to hospice care. Patients may not understand their prognosis, she said, and they may have never had a discussion with their doctor about what is important to them.
Another issue is the way services are reimbursed. There is no question that ICU care and ICU doctors are reimbursed for their services. But Medicare doesn't pay for primary-care doctors or specialists to sit down with their patients and have discussions about end-of-life care. Teno said this type of care was initially included in the Affordable Care Act, but was removed during political negotiations when the bill was making its way through Congress.
The study also found that people with some conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or emphysema, were less likely to get hospice care than someone who had cancer.
Both Teno and Tinetti said the findings show that you need to advocate for yourself or your loved ones. Ask the doctor what the prognosis is. If it's your parent or spouse, talk to them about what's truly important to them. Do they want every measure to be taken or do they want to just be as comfortable as possible at the end of their lives?
"Often, the best way to get your loved one's wishes honored is to get hospice [care]," Teno said.
Tinetti added that there should be standards put into place for who receives ICU care.
"Why do we have to fill out 25 pages of forms to get hospice [care] or a skilled nursing facility, but not for ICU?" she said. "We need to start proactively thinking about ICU care, and what role it plays in the care of the critically ill."

Ruwalk's Ten Step Guide To Seducing Your Recalcitrant Colleague3 Reviews
Set of drabbles. Because Alfeegi would be as obstinate about being seduced as he is about everything else.
Over time, Ruwalk had perfected seduction into somewhat of an art form. Flirtation came easily for him - an attractive man with a prestigious job, women were falling all over themselves to get close to him. He'd developed a reputation as a lover ("More like a hopeless skirt-chaser," Alfeegi had snorted) and he was proud of it.
However, he'd never tried to seduce a colleague before, especially colleagues that were Alfeegi, the very personification of obstinance, and he suspected it just wasn't going to work quite so easily.
Ruwalk grinned. It had been a while since he'd had a real challenge.
Flowers were always his first step.
Women liked them, Ruwalk reasoned. Alfeegi admittedly wasn't a woman, but that didn't mean he couldn't enjoy beautiful things, right? He didn't have many possessions (he couldn't stand the clutter, he said), but what he did have was high-quality, and this bouquet had been arranged by the finest florist in Dusis.
"What is the meaning of this, Ruwalk?"
"To brighten up your office?" he suggested hopefully.
"They're dropping petals all over my desk," Alfeegi huffed. "I would appreciate it if you removed them and let me get back to work."
"You don't like them?" he tried.
Alfeegi glared. Ruwalk wilted.
It wasn't a well-known fact that Alfeegi had a sweet tooth. Ruwalk had suspected at times that Alfeegi was a little ashamed of it; he did like to portray himself as a man of no vices. Still, Ruwalk had picked up that he had a particular weakness for chocolate, a kind so dark it was almost bitter.
It had been expensive and hard to get hold of. If it didn't sweeten Alfeegi up, nothing would.
Alfeegi eyed the box in Ruwalk's hand suspiciously. "Should I inform Kai-stern you're enroaching on his job?"
"Huh?" Ruwalk frowned.
"Why else would you be trying to bribe me?"
Romantic dinners always worked. Fine food and wine for two, soft candlelight and conversation, perhaps a serenade... it was enough to soften the hardest of hearts, even slightly. Ruwalk had made reservations at the best restaurant in town (Lykouleon had highly recommended it). Now it was just a matter of getting Alfeegi there without giving too much away.
"I can't even consider it; I'm far too busy," Alfeegi said when Ruwalk tentatively broached the subject.
"We both need to eat, why does it matter where?" Ruwalk asked reasonably.
Alfeegi only frowned and went back to his sandwich, still scribbling with the other hand.
People liked to talk about themselves. It was part of their makeup: give them an inch and they'd talk you into oblivion. Alfeegi was no different. He loved an audience to vent all his little grievances on, preferably one that wasn't prone to arguing back (Kai-stern) or sneaking away mid-rant (Kai-stern). What better a way to inveigle himself into Alfeegi's favour than by encouraging him and lending a sympathetic ear?
He just hadn't expected that Alfeegi was going to complain about /him/.
"...that's completely irresponsible of you, Ruwalk, I don't know what you were thinking, but..."
Ruwalk fumed inwardly and bit his lip.
Ruwalk surveyed his handiwork with a self-satisfied smile.
He'd noticed that the mess on Alfeegi's desk had been piling up, leaving Alfeegi cursing as he tried to find a particular form or an unbroken quill. He'd made half-hearted attempts at tidying up, but they were merely stopgap when a fresh load of work arrived every morning. Not only had Ruwalk organized his things, he'd also finished a couple of reports so Alfeegi could begin the day at a neat desk. Bound to put him in a good mood.
"I'm going to kill whoever did this," he heard Alfeegi vow. "Where is it?"
Ruwalk loved him, but he'd be the first one to admit that Alfeegi could be a smug jerk at times. In this case, it was a bonus that flattery could get you everywhere with Alfeegi.
"You work so hard for us all."
"I do," Alfeegi agreed.
"We don't tell you enough how much we appreciate it."
"You certainly don't."
"There's no way the castle could possibly run without you," Ruwalk continued.
"In fact, we take terrible advantage of you and run you off your feet shamelessly," he said, massaging Alfeegi's shoulders, watching his eyes slide shut with a purr.
Alfeegi opened his eyes. "What do you want?"
/Ply him with alcohol/, Kai-stern had suggested.
Indignity of being forced to turn to Kai-stern for help aside, it had seemed like a good idea at the time. If he could get Alfeegi's defenses down -not to take advantage of him, that wasn't what Ruwalk wanted- but to just loosen his inhibitions and his tongue enough to allow him to admit how he really felt...
Ruwalk patted the head resting in his lap a little sulkily. Alfeegi had only had two glasses, and he was out like a light. So much for that idea.
At least he was cute while he was sleeping.
/Absence makes the heart grow fonder/.
It was a somewhat desperate move, but maybe once he wasn't there, Alfeegi would realize how much he missed having Ruwalk around (which, in turn, would hopefully lead to other realizations of the romantic kind).
Ruwalk, with Lykouleon's assistance, engineered a trip out of town to visit family. He was only gone a week.
"I hope you had a nice time," Alfeegi said bitterly when he returned. "While you've been off holidaying, some of us have had to work double shifts to make up your slack."
Ruwalk winced. And he still had a pile to catch up on.
Maybe he'd been approaching it from the wrong angle. He'd been presuming that all his sneaky little techniques would translate just as easily to the other gender, but it seemed to be turning out that wasn't the case. Perhaps what he needed was to put away the pretense and simply be direct.
"I'm in love with you, Alfeegi."
"Hmmm?" Alfeegi said vaguely, hunting under a particularly large tower of paper. "What did you say?"
"I want you," Ruwalk said, getting slightly frustrated.
"To do what?"
Ruwalk could have screamed. Or beaten his head against the wall. What did it take to get through to Alfeegi?
Ruwalk was forced to conclude that Alfeegi just wasn't interested. There was no way anyone could be that dense.
(It only hurt a bit, anyway.)
"So, when you were going to tell me, Ruwalk?"
"I'm not blind, you realize. Trust you to be completely incompetent even in this area."
Ruwalk was still trying to work out what was happening when Alfeegi kissed him.
"Bastard," he floundered breathlessly. "You just wanted to watch me embarrass myself, didn't you?"
Alfeegi smiled, a little feral with a hint of fang, before kissing him again in a way that said he knew lots of other ways to make Ruwalk squirm.

Magmaw -- You can try and have your Felguard tank the adds, and it is a great strategy for sure, but the viability of it really isn't there for every group. We tried it at first, as we also tried having a specific person kite the adds, but it can be difficult for any one person to actually hold aggro on all of them against certain classes.
Survival hunters, balance druids, and fire mages in particular can dish out a lot of AoE damage in comparison to other classes. Rather than relying on the adds -hopefully- being tanked by a pet, it is simply better to put your chips on controlling the adds and killing them all.
Tron -- I will concede the point of DoTs. If I am wrong, then I am wrong. That is what my guide has been operating under and what I have seen on a few other sites. Perhaps it was a bug during beta that was changed in-game but a few sites didn't pick it up; I don't know.
I won't complain about it either way, though, as this only makes my life easier when I go back in there later today. :)
As for pools, you want everyone in them that you can, this is true. But if you have to choose between having a small number of healers vs a small number of DPS in one due to Electron being up, then I would favor the healers over the DPS. It regenerates 1,000 mana every second. 10,000 mana for a healer will more than offset any DPS gain that you could get within the same 10 second time frame.
Note, however, I said to only do this if your healers -need- the mana. If healers don't need mana at that time, then you would put a DPS in there; but, honestly, that may or may not even be the warlock. If you can only have a few DPS in there, you want your highest DPS to go in. It differs from guild to guild and raid to raid who that is, however right now survival hunters are generally the highest ranged DPS so you would send them in first.
It can be argued that DoT classes generally get a higher benefit from such buffs, but it wouldn't make up for any innate DPS difference that exists between a DoT class and another class.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
One thing that struck me was who is paying for the chat server and who has admin rights to it. I agree that, at this time, shutting it down is tantamount to breaking up your guild. But the fact that it exists is troubling to me.
I run the Vent server and I have admin rights to it. I've sent up a number of rooms where people can go including a few that are password protected. Last year, when my guild went through a very rocky patch, I noticed some people going to one particular room. When asked if there was something wrong, they said, "No, they just wanted to talk with their friends and not in the lobby." While they weren't doing anything subversive, their unwillingness to join in general conversation isolated them and made them seem like an exclusive group.
Eventually, they would log onto Vent and immediately go into what was turning into "their" chat channel. Other people felt unwelcome in that channel even if they were running with this group. I finally told them I was going to have to shut it down because it was dividing the guild. They decided they wanted something different than what we offered and left.
The only private chat rooms my Vent server has are one for officers and one for 18 and older chat. Everyone knows this and this cuts down on "private" chats.
I think the key is to make sure everyone in the guild knows they can come to you about anything, whether it's your leadership or someone's bad play or ideas they have for raids, and you'll listen to them and consider what they say. It seems to me you have done a great job of being sensitive to concerns and that's made you a better guild. If you make it clear your ear is always open to guild members those people with an axe to grind won't find too many interested in listening to them and there's no reason to be chatting in a private chat room.
When I created my vent server, I've excluded personal private channels to avoid this very issue of clique-ishness. It's worked wonderfully well, and I take pride in knowing I've helped cultivate an atmosphere where everyone would be welcome in all channels. You can peek at our vent channel setup on latecrew.net
@Docrev. I completely missed that it was about private chat channels using the in-game client. My ultimate point about a guild leader being open to all comments still stands. If the GL indicates they will listen to someone, even if it is criticism about them, there is no need of a private channel.
@Freedom. Since I control who is allowed to set up chat channels in Vent, there are no private channels save for the one for officers and the one for 18-years old an up. Other than when we really are dealing with guild business, we rarely use the officer channel. If people want to talk to me privately, I will take them there. Since that one group left, we've not had a problem with people talking privately to the exclusion of others. I won't say that people don't gripe and complain, it's a human quality. But I hope everyone feels that they can come to me with an issue, even if it's "You suck" and know they will be heard.

Homelessness is not an excuse for defeat
All across the world there are homeless people moving from place to place to find shelter and food. I believe that as humans they have the ability to build shelter and find food in the wild. I don't think these people should be given handouts of shelter and food, But as men we must help each other to ensure our evolution. What we should offer is education on agriculture irrigation and construction.

Dec 9 2011: i can sympathize with the aliments, but even a broken mind has potential to do great things. In my eyes they have a unique perspective that most of us don't have. Encouraging dependent behaviors is what puts them into chronic self disbelief. Motivational speeches would do them more good than accepting them as useless. People always want the quick fix to these problems and the quick fix is basically " here have some food, we gave up on really helping each other a long time ago".
Dance AokiDec 10 2011: I think you're oversimplifying a vastly more complex issue. The path out of homelessness has as much to do with economics, geography, culture, domestic partnerships, education, job training, availability of social services and opportunities for success rather than individual motivation alone. Many individuals experiencing homelessness don't have the kind of human support they need to exist in a stable environment. Many individuals have had doors closed in their face at every turn. Many individuals experiencing homelessness were married, but when their spouse passed away, they weren't able to make ends meet on a solo income. Many individuals experiencing homelessness are employed, but are living out of their cars because their minimum wage isn't enough to pay for a security deposit. Many of those experiencing homelessness couldn't afford health insurance and suffered under the pressure of expensive health care. Since the economic downturn, many soup kitchens and shelters have seen a spike in the number of families seeking relief. I believe in finding a balance between providing relief to a suffering individual by offering food and shelter, but also providing services that develop each individual's ability to find their independence. In a country so wealthy and with access to so many resources, there should be no reason we can't provide relief for the most vulnerable and exposed among our citizens in a sustainable and responsible way. In developing countries, social entrepreneurship and microfinance is a way for the poor to pull themselves out of poverty. America is less accepting of this practice.
I'm wondering if there is a deeper question to be asked here.

IT professionals, like people in every walk of life, can develop strong preferences that influence decision-making. This can be a challenge for companies using only in-house staffers to see to their IT needs because when it is time to hire a new person for the tech department, leaders in the department may subconsciously, or even deliberately, choose to interview only those candidates that share their own vision of IT.
One way in which this tendency can manifest itself is in the determination of which operating system a server should use. Some people are predisposed to favor Windows products above all others, while other individuals prefer the open-source Linux solution. Arguments can be made in favor of either solution, but when, for example, a Linux approach would be best for a given firm's needs, in-house staff predisposed to favor Windows at all costs will probably stick to the approach that for them is 'tried and true'.
One way out of this challenging issue is to contract with an IT company to provide additional staff that can visit on a regular, scheduled basis. This model for IT services, known as a managed programs approach, can be used for the installation, maintenance, and ongoing upgrade needs of a program that is unfamiliar to in-house staffers. A managed programs approach has the added benefit of requiring those very staffers to broaden their IT horizons. This can happen through informal discussions with managed programs personnel and through ongoing contact with the new software incorporated into the business environment through the managed programs approach.

It's surprising how easy it is to cultivate the 'WASP-y-chic' look with only a couple of items.
- Trench Coat: Banana Republic (straight up the most expensive clothing item I have ever bought. It was 40% at Portland's Fashion Night Out and I still agonized over the purchase for about a whole hour. Buying expensive things makes me incredibly anxious, because I should probably not be allowed to have nice things).
- Sunglasses and tan headband: pretty old and definitely very cheap. The sunglasses are ones my mom gave me because she didn't like how big they are. Honestly, the headband is probably from Claire's, or like, Target.

Website Redesign
Website Redesign Blog
Survey results guide interim home page changes
Amid the holiday hubbub last month, more than 100 students, staff and faculty members answered a Qualtrics survey about interim refinements to UW-Superior's home page.
These refinements are not part of the full-scale website redesign, which is being led by Figleaf Software. Rather they're being made partly to respond to market competition and partly to place a stronger emphasis on messaging and visuals, which are expected to play a larger role in the full redesign.
Respondents were asked to view three versions of the UW-Superior home page and click on the elements that first attracted their attention. Although there were some minor differences between the versions, "heat maps" of each design showed a strong preference for the expanded messaging and visual spaces you see on today's home page.
For information on next steps in the overall redesign process, check back here with the Redesign Blog.

SHAWANO, Wis. (WSAU) -- The search for a missing person north of Shawano did not have a happy ending Sunday.
Sheriff's deputies were called at 12:43 p.m. with a report of a missing 44-year-old woman from the Green Bay area. Deputies searched the area near Highway HH in the Town of Washington and located the missing woman deceased in a wooded area near the residence she was staying at.
Officers say there is no sign of foul play, and no potential danger to the public. The cause of the woman's death remains under investigation. Her name has not been released.

Cioffi plays big for URI ruggersBy Bob Fredette
STAFF WRITER | April 28,2014SUBMITTED PHOTO
Rutlander Eliza Cioffi, right, carries the ball in a match playing for the University of Rhode Island. CIoffi and the Rams won a Division I and a DIvision II "Beast of the East" title during her four seasons.Size isn't everything, unless you count the heart.
Eliza Cioffi is a good case in point. Told she was too small to play sports like basketball and soccer at Rutland High School, Cioffi took up rugby in her senior year.
Rugby? Cioffi is 5 feet tall and 110 pounds.
Yes, rugby. And she was impressive enough to be elected captain at the University of Rhode Island, which won two "Beast of the East" tournament titles in Cioffi's four seasons there.
Cioffi's statement that she would go out for rugby was at first a joke. But she did it anyway and liked it. So, no more Raiders soccer for her.
"After I understood what was going on I liked it a lot," said Cioffi, who is getting ready to graduate and move on to pursue her PhD. "It was weird because in soccer you run away from the ball to create space, and in rugby you run to the ball."
But rugby? For an athlete of such diminutive stature?
"I definitely usually am the smallest person on the field," she said. "I think I know how to play without getting beaten up. I think most people get hurt because they don't play aggressively.
"I've been lucky; I've only had two concussions and a couple of black eyes."
Cioffi, a 2010 Rutland graduate, was recruited to the team at URI and the Rams don't regret it. By the second half of her first collegiate game she was on the field, and barring injury was, there the rest of her college years.
Cioffi plays the scrum half position, where one of the assignments is to take the pass from the scrum and move it along to the fly half.
It was Cioffi's sophomore year when the Rams won the Division II portion of the Beast of the East, an annual tournament in Portsmouth, R.I. which attracts more than 30 colleges in two divisions.
URI breezed through the event without allowing a point.
In Cioffi's junior year, the URI women's team moved up to Division I and finished second behind Boston University, commendable for a team that had graduated much of its experience.
But the Rams came back this year and scored a Division I crown on the weekend of April 12 in impressive fashion.
They started out with victories of 34-0 over Boston College and 38-5 over Yale.
Then they knocked off 2-0 Northeastern 18-0 before engaging in a dogfight with UConn, winning 8-3 with a late try.
Ironically, Northeastern is one of the schools to accept Cioffi into its post-graduate program.
Cioffi, who seeks her doctorate in audiology, will study next year at Hofstra and does not rule out more rugby.
"I would definitely encourage them to try it," she said when asked what she would tell an aspiring rugger.
"It's a community. It's normal during a game to try to hurt other teams, but then we all get together and have a barbeque.
"I could sit with a bunch of 50-year-olds and talk rugby for hours."MORE IN News

I've been in hvac 36 years & don't agree with a lot of the suggestions for "saving energy" a lot of them will in fact cost money as well as problems with the newer equipment. The more sensible "rule of thumb" for thermostats used to be unless you are going to be gone more than 72 hrs. don't vary the temp more than 5 deg. 10 degrees for just an 8 hour period is asinine !, If the outside temp is low enough for the house to drop 10 degrees in that period this constant change is also hard on paint furnishings etc., the recovery time eats any savings & the biggest factor to consider with modern equipt is that if there is any issue with inadequate air flow i.e. sizing, dirty filters or too many vents shut off or blocked, the furnace will over heat & eventually shut itself off.Furnaces doing this creates probably 65% of no heat calls in the winter & a common response from people is "my old furnace never did that", As for these new "smart thermostats" I personally don't think the majority of consumers have any chance of recouping the cost, but think a lot of people just want the newest fanciest "toy" like the smart phone game, most of these will probably be outdated or have failed before ever recouping plus most people with these type of controls are constantly playing with them. I also feel that the High end variable speed "bell & whistle " models are not are good investment. They are becoming more reliable & most have a ten year part warranty which is better than the one or five year previously. in a lot of cases a step down from the top of the line to one with 2 stage technology & ecm motor is a better investment, none of these are any better than the way they are installed, a lot of contractors push the high end as it is better for them for obvious reasons, a lot of the savings depends on the efficiency &size of the house as well as the area it is in i.e. energy costs, climate.The best investment for energy savings is common sense !
OK, I've got a Nobel prize winning observation here: Put some freaking clothes on. Big time thermals, 2 layers of pants with 3 layers of shirts, 2 pair of socks, and a hat or beanie. If you run to your thermostat wearing shorts and a short sleeve shirt you deserve to lose your shirt.
Don't heat air- heat objects instead. Small wattage radiant heaters work best and they work in drafts, too. A 400 watter keeps me comfortable and the only time I run the central heat is to protect the pipes during a plunge.
I think LEDs are crap. I used them 2 yrs. ago on my wreath. Took them out last year and most didn't work. I had to search for lights again. By the time I got done, I had 4 sets of LEDs on my little wreath.
They don't have a long life. Yes, they were battery-operated for the wreath - I kept changing the batteries but it was actually the lights - I used the batteries for other things and they worked fine.
I don't put up a wreath until my b-day ( the 8th) and only run them for a few hours. I hate LEDs. Give me the mini-lights - brighter & they last. Can't find the battery operated minis anywhere now.

The Lucky Children's Book Continues Its Flight
In Indonesia's Maluku Islands it is not unusual to find wild parrots or cockatoos chained to perches outside local shops or in the homes of the wealthy. Lucky, a rainbow lorikeet, was one such bird. Trapped from the nearby forest and chained to a two-foot wooden stick, he lived outside his owner's restaurant for more than a year before he was discovered by representatives from the Indonesian Parrot Project. Monica Engebretson, senior program associate for Born Free USA united with the Animal Protection Institute, was a member of the 2003 Indonesian Parrot Project ecotour and remembers Lucky's story ...

(LifeNews) Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack has unearthed an old video from 2003, when President Barack Obama was running for the U.S. Senate from Illinois, in which he defends his position favoring late-term abortions.
OBAMA: "I am pro-choice."
REPORTER: "In all situations including the late term thing?"
OBAMA: "I am pro-choice. I believe that women make responsible choices and they know better than anybody the tragedy of a difficult pregnancy and I don't think that it's the government's role to meddle in that choice."

Carroll County Extension Homemakers invite members and others interested in joining its Ice Cream Social and Yard Sale from 5-8 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 13, at the Carroll County Extension office.
Delicious ice cream with special toppings and cookies will be served.
Exten-sion Home-makers' President Gloria Lindsay extends a special invitation to women who may be interested in joining or just want to learn more about the programs and activities in which members are involved. She also encourages members to invite a friend to attend.
Starting next Wednesday, Sept. 7 and running through Nov. 10, we will be teaching our fall 10-week "Weight, the Reality Series" from 5-6:30 p.m. at the Carroll County Extension Service office, 500 Floyd Drive, Carrollton.
I have taught this series for several years and recently been fortunate to have Becky Wilson, R.N., of Three Rivers District Health Department working with me so I have a medical professional who understands any underlying medical concerns that our participants may have.
With a new school year, you can pack your child's lunch and send your child to class with safe and healthy lunches with these easy tips.
Six habits – six weeks. That is the challenge that the Northern Kentucky Cooperative Extension family and consumer sciences agents are giving to everyone in the eight-county area.
Health and Wealth Challenge 2011 runs from Aug. 29 to Oct. 9.
We invite all Carroll County residents to sign up for the challenge. If you complete and log six health and wealth habits during the challenge, and submit your completed tracker form you will be eligible for a number of nice prizes.
Watermelon was the theme at last week's First Friday, held monthly on the lawn of the Carroll County Courthouse in downtown.
Coordinated by the Carroll-ton Main Street Program led by Sam Burgess, Jeff Moore and Deborah Garrett and anchored by the RiverView Farmers Market, this team has worked hard to provide entertainment and an interesting program for everyone attending.
On Friday night, Garrett organized a watermelon bash with demonstrations of watermelon dishes and a seed spitting contest.
The Carroll County Extension Service is offering several programs that will be of interest to local residents.
There are other programs offered in the region too, that residents may want to attend.
On Aug. 10, a special program, "Resi-dential Rain Garden Design for Homeowners" will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Kenton County Cooperative Extension Service office in Covington.
They survived. That is the 61 campers and 13 adults and teens that attended 4-H Camp last week.
It was hot, but we had a great week and I hope that they want to go back next year. We had a great bunch of leaders at camp and three were there for the first time, Levi Underwood, Traci Morgan and Crystal Richards. The other adult leaders were Crystal Franklin, Sharon Hopkins and Kayla Stewart. Our great teen leaders were Haley Hendrick, Nikki Hill, Nicky States, Jamie Glauber, Cameron Logsdon, Conner Dermon and Taylor Hill.
With all the ripe summer produce, I have been teaching food preservation workshops to help you learn proper methods of "putting up food" for those cold winter months ahead.
Last week I concluded teaching the canning workshops.
In August I have two more workshops scheduled — one on freezing on Tuesday, Aug. 9 and making pickles and relishes on Thursday, Aug. 18. Both of these are all-day workshops from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. A $12 fee will be charged for each workshop, which includes lunch.
On July 10th, three Carroll County 4-H Shooting Sports Club members, Dustin Rosenbaum, Elizabeth Mouzakitis and Lauren Wright,participated in the 2011 Kentucky Bluegrass Games Shooting Sports at the Anderson County Sportsman Club in Lawrenceburg, Ky. The Bluegrass Games is an annual event similar to the Olympics, open to citizens of Kentucky of all ages with athletic events in a large variety of sports. The events usually have classifications based on age and/or athletic abilities.

S3 . ,ir D.v f1 Tuesday, 8 July 1986 Vol. 46 No. 62 Council elects new chairs The Weber State College Institutional Council appointed a new chairman and approved a number of changes in the constitutional bylaws of the college's Faculty Senate. Harold Steed, president of Clearfield State Bank, became the new chairman of the council, and Richard Myers, president of Myers Mortuary, was selected vice chairman during the group's monthly meeting July 3. The Institutional Council is one of two governing boards of the college, including itself and the Utah Board of Regents. The Council handles theday-to-day operations of the college while the Board of Regents handles the long-range operations. The Council is made up of both the studentbody president and the alumni president for the year. It also consists of eight members not directly involved with the college. These are appointed by the governor. Steed has served on the WSC Institutional Council for a total of 16 years. Myers served on the WSC council for one year in 1965 and was reappointed last year for a four-year term. In other matters, the WSC Institutional Council approved a large list of changes for the college's Faculty Senate. "This is the first time in some years that the faculty senate has taken a thorough look at their constitution, and they have made some major changes in the bylaws," Academic Vice President Robert B. Smith told the group. Those changes are mostly a streamlining of the organizational structure and a redefining of a number of committees and boards, he said. WSC president Stephen D. Nadauld noted that the college is in the process of reviewing academic offerings at the college "to get a feeling of where we'll make cuts and what programs we'll emphasize."This is the time to make some substantive changes in terms of where we're going," Nadauld said. Those changes are necessitated by tight budgets, he said, but will result in a more refined institution. Referring to the college's limited revenues, Smith reported that 13 teaching positions currently vacant would not be filled for the coming year. mi' m m ..Ha : V-V -a y ( S3 C-. y - ; V r, '" 'jiMBKaJSr .7 !

Studies show that students who are oriented to college have a higher success rate in classes, and tend not to dropout. "I think it's very important for students to be oriented to academic life," Arbuckle said. Different orientations are set for students with declared majors, and for those who have not declared a major. In addition, there are sessions for transfer students, for older, returning 'students, a couple of evening orientations, an overnighter and one for parents. (see SEMINARS on page 2) DIGI-TALK aids NUSAT Susan Fishburn Staff Reporter Sometimes, three comes before two. Three comes first in the NUSAT project. NUSAT III will be ready to launch before NUSAT II because it is a less technical project than NUSAT II, according to Bob Twiggs, associate professor and advisor to the NUSAT project at WSC. NUSAT II will take longer to complete because it has "more redundancy, more pizazz, extra experiments," Twiggs said. The school is building the computer boards and some of the other technical equipment that was purchased from others for the NUSAT I project, according to Twiggs. NUSAT III will include a device called DIGI-TALK, developed by Richland Community College in Decater, Illinois. The NUSAT program welcomes participation of other institutions. "We are committed to sharing information and expertise with others interested in doing related projects. I really like to work with those kinds of "people. "If "you keep it all to yourself, you end up not getting as much done," Twiggs said. The DIGI-TALK synthesized voice communicator would transmit one way. It will use radio waves close enough to amateur frequencies for ham radio operators to pick up the transmissions, according to Twiggs. NUSAT III is licensed by the FCC on an experimental frequency. "It's tough to get those frequencies, but about a week ago, we got renewed for another couple of years," Twiggs said. The satellite will continually broadcast battery charge and temperature data. "That means there will be no need to contact the satellite from the ground," Twiggs said. NUSAT I must be contacted from the ground. "There are five contact opportunities daily. Sometimes, all your passes are at night," Twiggs said. "Ham radio operators will be able to send us cards from everywhere, stating that they contacted the satellite at such and such a date and time. They will send us the data and we will send tham a membership card in the Nusat III group." he said. A video camera may also be included on NUSAT III. "We want to see what it looks like coming from up there," he continued. The camera would also be useful in providing information on the aurora borealis. Don Lind, retired astronaut and professor at Utah State University, has been doing high altitude research on the northern lights, and NUSAT III could provide more data, (see NUSAT on page 2)

|Signpost (Weber, Utah), 1986-07-08, Vol. 46, No. 62
|Weber State College
|Associated Students of Weber College; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Magazine Stack Stools: Designer vs DIY
I try to get most of my reads online now, but there are still a few magazines I pick up regularly and keep in little stacks to re-read when I need some inspiration. I fell in love with this magazine stool by NJU Studio the second I saw it, but then I found this DIY version. Now I'm torn.
There's a lot to love about both ideas, not the least of which is the price. I think I might have to make my own in between version. What do you think?
(image source: 1.NJU Studio 2.Curbly)
11 Comments
I'm crazy about the NJU Studio version...not so much with the DIY version. I think it would be great to create a more sophisticated DIY version with some sort of a base, vintage belts, and a pillow top like the NJU Studio version.
PS) I'd love to see pictures when you make your DIY version!
I agree with neefall. seems like a higher end take on the DIY might be the best road. you'll get the cost benefits but also be able to customize for your space.
yeah, the diy version looks slapdash (at best). But! With a little bit of effort and maybe a thrifted footstool or something (and maybe some leather belts?), I think you could DIY a MUCH classier version.
Deja vu. The only thing I dislike about Apartment Therapy are the constantly recycled posts.
I'm so making an upscaled version of this. Should the spines of the magazines all face one way, alternate, or random? I think my wine spectator mags might be the perfect choice. Note that this also could allow one to revisit old magazines very easily!
I just can't see this working well (either one) for a long period of time. The mags will shift no matter what, it won't be stable.
I want to make a stool out of used jeans. My idea is to use a belt like was used in the pictures.
Neither of those look very comfortable.
Where might one find the nice wooden base for the one that is complete? I suppose if one wanted some sense of design thru color the local second hand bookstore might have plenty. Allison

The Wolseley
160 Piccadilly, W1J 9EB
Dean Street Townhouse is a boutique hotel and dining room from the Soho House Group. It's located on (yes) Dean Street, which is constantly buzzing with the Soho crowd who can frequently be found perched at the bar — cocktails in hand.
The restaurant serves classic British cuisine with favourites such as the twice-baked, smoked haddock soufflé to start, mince and potatoes or roast Banham chicken with sage and onion stuffing as popular mains.
The interiors are dark, cosy and seductive with walls scattered with the cream of contemporary British art. The small but perfectly formed terrace is a delight in warm weather and has the added benefit of being right in the heart of Soho.
Dean Street Townhouse serves Soho's faithful from first thing in the morning until the early hours and if things go horribly wrong (or if you get lucky), you can crawl a few paces to the hotel rooms upstairs. It's also a great place for a business lunch, but make sure you clear your afternoon calendar as lunch can often merge into dinner.

The classy socialite/ex-con took a dip in Malibu over the weekend -- and so did her bathing suit!
Wearing goggle-sized sunglasses and an ill-fitting one-piece, the giddy Paris was attempting to mount a surfboard (a Boost Mobile board to be precise)-- and took a revealing tumble. Catch the wave!
#41 Your point is?
Hilton will undoubtedly become involved in some charity work -- not just because she may want to become more involved in philanthropic activities, but because she simply has no choice. She has become âpersona non grataâ on a number of fronts, thanks -- in part -- to her disastrous performance on The Larry King show. If she doesn't follow through on her plans for charity work, her âcareerâ will be in the shredder.
Oh my god. She is one ugly girl. I don't get it. She has no chest, wears to much make-up, and has a hidious taste in sunglasses. She has no morals and no class. Why is everyone so infatuated with her?
She has this complex that every one owes HER something. All the money in the world can not buy deceny.
I wish she'd grow up and use her wealth for something worthwhile. I'd rather ready about Angelina & Brad trying to save the world over a truly trashy selfish human being like the blonde skank.....
#41 well said
WOW All you guys who leave negative comments, need to get a life!!!!!! You all hate her soooooooooo much then why do you even read about her then waste your time commenting about her? SO JEALOUS. And now you say she should get implants, well when they show pics of girls with implants all you people say is negative things about them. GET SOME SELFESTEEM PEOPLE AND START LOOKING AT YOURSELVES. Paris is beautiful,sorry you'll never be!!!!!!!!!
Are you people crazy? I'm surprised at how many comments prompt her to get implants. That is ridiculous. And when you see an obvious boob job, you all gripe that they are fake and shallow. And also... a bathing suit slip is SOOOO common and has happened to ALL girls/women who have ever jumped into the water. I don't think Paris is anything newsworthy, but I don't think she needs implants. NOBODY does, unless it's something THEY feel is important for THEMSELVES -- not a bunch of cheetoh eating, beer drinking, computer addict losers.
Where's her bible?
ewwww she looks like a boy!!!!!!!!!
Yawwnnn!!!! Go away, you bore me biotch.
WELCOME TO US!!! We needed new faces, we're tired of these white trash girls!
Some of you people are nuts..
Why would she have a bible in the water with her??? Idiots
All of you are enjoying your summer, so should paris.
Even ugly perez hilton is out enjoying the summer sun..
isnt this a wase of copy ,nothing.whos blowing who to get this attention.
Paris - I just got out of jail - what is the address of the halfway house that you promised I could stay in?
I have a house in Cabo and lots of ladies wear bathing suits. I see very few accidents like the one Paris seems to have had. Most of the accidents are not asccidents, but rather trashy women wanting to show their fun bags. I like the accidents as much as any guy would, but the females showing themselves have no class. Parass I guess cash and class for you cannot be used in the same sentence!!! Go away you nasty big footed skank!!!!
What is up with the implants comments? There is nothing wrong with leaving what God gave you alone. I say more power to her for being happy with the way she is and not thinking that just b/c she has money she needs to go to a plastic surgeon and get implants like every other flat chested celeb does.

The rosemary-garlic fries are interesting in theory, but I'm not a big fan of shoestring fries.
Just a generic chain. Ill go there again if there's nothing else around and hungry, but I won't be going out of my way.
Props for having moerlein beers though.

I'm betting that if indeed there is a 10 man version of lich-king it will be drastically different from the 25 man. That almost goes without saying, but hear me out: remember Star Fox 64? You could go the easy way, the medium way or the hard way depending on how well you did on the previous level (brilliant design by the way) But my point is that the final boss was just a measly robot that was pathetically easy and short time to kill, but it wasn't the true Andros.
I bet cash money thats what blizz does with Lich boy here. The 10 mans will go into the thrown room, take out some sort of twin copy of the guy, and the story line can go and say you have destroyed the evil king's body, but his demon soul is too strong to be so put down... But then a 25 man comes in and BAM, thats all she wrote, for reals this time.

WBA/WBC Welterweight and WBC light middleweight champion Ricardo Mayorga was looking to get his first MMA win against Semi-pro fighter Rene 'Level' Martinez. The bout took place on 07/27/2013.
Level martinez he followed in kimbos footsteps with backyard fights and things, been following him for a year or two, got him on facebook
So that's what happens to Mayorga when he's not fighting a guy with 4 times more losses then wins? At least he didn't cheat this time.
Gotta say a lot of people called this. Not really a great idea for boxers to do MMA if they have developed 0 ground game.
Good thing he didn't fight Din Thomas way back like he was supposed to. If Level Martinez handled him that easy wow I cant even imagine the hurting a skilled MMA fighter like Din would have done.
He actually did show SOME ground skills. He was bumping hips pretty well and did manage to get on his feet. It's really hard to be cognizant of every single aspect of a fight. Struggling to get back to your feet while simultaneously defending strikes and subs.
No boxer stands a chance in MMA, not even GOATS like Ali or Tyson.
They give him Level for his first fight LOL!! Come on!!
He would have won if he knew how to properly set up the choke. His right arm was no where it should have been
He panicked and tapped out. That guillotine was on for all of one second.
lol @ failsonnen….that was a failcomment. Or maybe you meant to put 'leg' instead of 'arm'.
Generally it's pretty safe to say you can't finish the guillotine if the guy has you in side control… as was the case in this fight. Twas not an issue of where it right arm was, but more an issue of where his right leg was.
El matador used to be a terryfying fighter, he wasn(t the most gifted but he was a tough guy and a very agressive fighter.
He used to be in many wars and he is washed up now.And MMA is so different .He had the guts to go to MMA where a boxer has almost no chance if he didn't train in MMA
If jackson goes to boxing he will easily be beaten the same way even versus an old and washed up roy jones.
As a boxer, MMA and boxing are too different.If Dos santos thinks he can beat any top 50 in boxing he will take a serious beating
And on the contrary any boxing champ can compete againt any top 50 in MMA
stop anatagonizing the 2 disciplines;it is not the same thing
I meant any boxer CAN'T compete against any top 50 in MMA
@Beast w/ 8 Limbs – You are right he did have some ground skills unlike what the guy above you posted. It will take time to get better if ricardo wants to.
Not comparing the two just telling it like it is. The MMA guy is going to destroy the boxer in a street fight 9 out of 10 times. Only because being well rounded in 5+ disciplines is better than being great at 1. I rather speak 5 different languages good Vs just english great. Know what I'm saying?

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - The latest Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor says it's time to start changing Governor Scott Walker's policies from the inside.
That's what Mahlon Mitchell said Monday when he announced his plans to run against Republican Lieutenant Governor Rebecca Kleefisch in the expected recall elections this spring.
The 35-year-old Mitchell is from Madison. He heads the Professional FireFighters of Wisconsin, and has spoken around the country against the GOP state law that virtually eliminated public union bargaining.
Milwaukee private detective Ira Robins is also running for lieutenant governor. But he didn't get public statements of praise from State Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate or gubernatorial candidate Kathleen Falk. Both hailed Mitchell's candidacy Monday.
Republicans said Mitchell issued a statement over a year ago thanking Walker for exempting firefighters from the union limits. And he vowed to work with the governor to solve the state's budget problems.
Mitchell said he recanted the statement after learning more about Walker's plan.
