Factory-refurbished and repacked with care Here's a chance to get a great deal on an amazing Bowers & Wilkins computer speaker system. These factory-refurbished MM-1 speakers have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they meet Bowers & Wilkins' strict quality standards for both sonic performance and mechanical integrity. The unit is repacked in special packaging, complete with all documentation. Best of all, they come with a full 2-year factory warranty, so you can buy them with confidence. Turn your desk into a musical oasis Warm, rich guitar notes, a smooth, clear saxophone solo, and accurate vocals that place you in the middle of a concert hall. Bowers & Wilkins' MM-1 speakers take up very little room on your desktop but reproduce the music stored on your computer in lifelike detail. These speakers are a great choice for folks who enjoy high-fidelity lossless or high-bitrate audio files. Custom-tailored for computer use These speakers connect to a USB port on your computer, bypassing its built-in sound card. That kind of direct digital output means there's less potential for noise and interference to degrade the sound quality. A built-in high-performance DAC (digital-to-analog converter) gives you far greater sonic fidelity than the DACs found most sound cards. A high-quality headphone output means you'll enjoy that sonic upgrade even when you're wearing a pair of headphones. Bower & Wilkins designed the MM-1s for "near-field" listening: the sweet spot (where the speakers sound their best) is just a few feet away, right where you'll sit at your computer. Spectacular audio performance Unlike many other desktop computer speakers, which rely on a single full-range driver to reproduce all the frequencies, each MM-1 features a carefully engineered 1" tweeter and a 3" woofer. The system has four separate amplifiers built in, one for each driver, for clarity and impact. Plus, digital signal processing keeps the bass sounding powerful and music sounding rich and detailed at any volume level. From the review Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 computer speakers -- A joy for the senses "The separately powered speakers and built-in DAC helped each track live up to its full potential — whatever that was as determined by its bit rate. My lossless files sounded full and finely detailed. It was as if there was large sphere of sound encompassing the area around my laptop. My compressed MP3 files still had some detail, but tended to sound thinner and a little harsher — but much better than through the laptop's sound card." — Ralph Graves, Crutchfield Blog Editor and A/V Writer See more info on this item Highlights:stereo speakershigh-quality built-in digital-to-analog converter18 watts x 4 (one amplifier for each driver)frequency response: 38-22,000 Hz3" woofer1" Nautilus tube-loaded tweeter for purer high-frequency soundspebble-shaped remote lets you change volume and control programs like Windows® Media Player and iTunes®USB input bypasses your computer's sound card for better performance (cable included)stereo minijack audio input for connecting an iPod® or CD playerheadphone output3-15/16"W x 6-11/16"H x 3-15/16"Dwarranty: 2 yearsOur 60-day money-back guarantee Hands-on research from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?)

Features MM-1 Powered Speakers: The Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 powered speakers bring true hi-fi quality sound to your desktop or laptop computer, transforming your computer into a hi-fi stereo sound system. The Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 powered speakers are ideal for enjoying music, video, and games from your computer. Full-Range Sound: The Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 is equipped with two drivers; one dedicated to bass and midrange frequencies, and another for the treble. Each speaker features a 3.0" woofer and 1.0" tweeter. The MM-1 is powered by an 18-watt x 4-channel integrated amplifier. This is how the MM-1 can reproduce sound with the accuracy of a true hi-fi speaker (38Hz to 22,000Hz). Nautilus Tube-Loaded Tweeters: The MM-1's tweeters incorporate the tube-loaded design, Bowers & Wilkins first developed for their famous Nautilus speakers, which dampens resonance and produces purer high frequency sounds. Near-Field Monitors: All hi-fi setups have a sweet spot, the area in the listening space where music sounds at its best. The MM-1 is designed primarily as a near-field monitor, ideal for listening to music while at your computer. The Bower's & Wilkins MM-1 speakers have been electronically adjusted to provide its best sound just a few feet away from your computer screen, so you have the best seat in the house. Digital Signal Processing: Thanks to built-in Digital Signal Processing, the MM-1 can produce big sound from a small speaker. By adjusting the sound balance depending on the signal, DSP keeps bass effects powerful and music sounding rich and detailed; no matter how loud you play it. Dynamic EQ: The Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 speakers provide powerful bass thanks to its Dynamic EQ technology which maximizes bass output. USB Audio Streaming: Computer speakers normally have to rely on the varying quality of the computer's analogue output signal. The Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 is different. It streams audio directly from your computer via USB (2.0) and converts the signal from digital to analogue internally. So you will always get the best possible audio quality, independent of the computer output. PC and Mac Compatible: The Bowers & Wilkins powered speakers perform equally well with either a Mac or Microsoft computer, through its USB 2.0 input. The MM-1 features a mini-USB type-B port, and comes with a mini-USB type-B to USB type-A cable to connect to your computer. Auxiliary Input: The MM-1 speakers also features an 3.5mm auxiliary input, and comes with a stereo minijack cable to connect your digital music player or CD player. Remote Control: Thanks to the MM-1's ergonomic, pebble-shaped IR remote, you will have complete control over your speakers, as well as iTunes or Windows Media Player, from anywhere in the room. The remote operates off of a single CR2032 3V lithium battery (included). High-Quality Headphone Output: The MM-1 makes private listening also possible, thanks to its high-quality headphone output (3.5mm). When you plug your headphones directly into the speakers, the audio from your computer is enhanced by high quality DACs used in the MM-1, producing a sound that is a noticeable improvement over the standard PC or Mac headphone output.

Nothing comes close to these speakers! Simply the best! Pros: Perfect sound! Cons: Cost Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Brilliant. Written By TomL, Fairfax, VA on Thursday, July 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great clarity and depth of sound, including bass. Perfect for classical. Connections and controls are simple. A keeper through my next couple of Mac upgrades. Refurbished had no discernable difference from absolutely new. Pros: Sound, appearance, design. Cons: Remember to turn the unit off: heat collects in the right speaker after several hours. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 Written By Bruce Mc., Northern California on Wednesday, June 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've had various speakers prior to the MM-1's. For example, the MM-1 delivers audio quality that's so exquisite, so pristine that it makes the mighty AudioEngine A-5's sound almost muddy in comparison. I was particularly impressed with the Bass response, even though there is no subwoofer! Sure, these may not rattle your floor joists, but the lows are absolutely clean, luscious and very well rounded and delivered. You have an extremely well rounded sound system with scintillating highs and midrange frequencies coupled with clear, crisp bass... not just bass for loudness sake. If you ever thought sheer power and woofers translates into great sound, you should give the MM-1's a listen. You'll have no trouble filling your home office or bedroom with remarkable sound quality, as opposed to loud, muddled, thumpy droning bass that seems to prevail in the audio industry today. Pros: Clear, Concise, Authoritative sound deliver in a professional format Cons: One always can argue price: But.... you get what you pay for in this world and these MM-1's are worth the investment. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 excels at intended purpose Written By JustinW, Hopkinton, MA on Tuesday, June 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These were my 3rd Bowers & Wilkins purchase, after the Zeppelin Air with 30-pin, not lightning connector) and the P7 headphones. I opted for the refurbished model because I was assured B&W issues the same 2-year warranty, and I feel very comfortable buying any product from Crutchfield. When I first set them up, I ran into a snag - the header on the USB cable that connects from Speaker A -> PC was damaged, like someone stepped on it. A call to Crutchfield and a replacement was on the way. It arrived much sooner than expected (I had been told a week before shipping, which wasn't good news to hear but a call on Friday ended with the cable coming on Tuesday). Once I had finally connected the speakers to the PC, I could enjoy using them. I rip all my CDs to ALAC for iTunes and despite their somewhat diminutive size the MM-1s can generate some appreciable "oomph". I listen to everything from classical to jazz, Deadmau5 to the Deftones, and I wasn't disappointed in any situation. The Air is my go-to for iTunes listening but I did want to test how the MM-1s handled music. I was worried how "Audiophile" computer speakers would handle gaming, but I've run through my Steam list, going from RPG to RTS and FPS and the sound quality is great, and despite being a 2.0 setup positional accuracy is pretty good. Overall. I would say 4 - 4.5 stars. Pros: Size for quality of sound. Aesthetics - fits right in with my taste as well as sharing my desk with the ZepAir Cons: I wish the cable connecting the slave -> master speakers was a bit longer. Speakers feel 'quality' but I wouldn't mind a little more heft to them. I'm happy I went refurb as the 20% discounted price-point is easier to justify. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

After a disclosure of abuse, children often express themselves
with feelings, words and behavior. If you notice changes in your
child's behavior, be patient and listen. Respect your child's feelings.
Remember that whatever your child is feeling is okay.
Be sure to tell your child that the abuse was not his/her fault.
Continue to reassure your child that you love him/her and are glad
that he/she was able to tell someone. Resist any urge you may have
to question your child further. Instead, let your child know if
he/she wants to talk, you will be there to listen.
It may be difficult for your child to talk to you about things that are personal, painful or embarrassing. It is okay if your child needs to talk to someone else - such as a therapist. Help your child identify safe people to talk to. The Child Abuse Network can help you address your concerns in more detail and provide referral information on services in your community.
At a time when children need adult support the most, adults are often struggling with their own emotions and reactions. You may find it is difficult to express your own feelings without confusing or frightening your child. It may help to talk about your feelings with a therapist. CAN is available to discuss counseling options for you and your family.
It is possible that your child may have to go to court. The Child Abuse Network works with the District Attorney's Victim Witness Center to offer a program called Court School that helps prepare children for court.
If you have questions regarding your case, please call either your child welfare caseworker or detective.
If you don't know who
to talk to, the Child Abuse Network can help. If you have questions
while you are at the Center or even after you return home, CAN's
staff will help you find the right person to talk to. Just call
(918) 624-0200.

The modification of orthotics is also a
common occurrence in the office. One
may need to replace or adjust top covers
and posts. Often, podiatrists may need to
adjust the curvature of the orthotic as
well. Physicians can return these devices
to the fabricating orthotic lab for adjustments.
This will obviously require a certain
amount of turnaround time.
Being able to make adjustments in the
office promptly can be an added feature
that you can offer your patients. The
materials required are relatively inexpensive.
You can bill the patient directly
for these services.
The offsetting factors are being able to
modify the orthotic device at the time of
the visit or possibly the next day rather
than having a week or greater turnaround
time in having to send the device
back to the orthotic lab. One may also
note to the patient that the fees charged
by the orthotic labs can be quite expensive.
Indeed, the patient may appreciate
the more prompt and less expensive
services that you can render. This is an
excellent practice builder as well.
How To Master Billing For Orthotics
- Volume 21 - Issue 5 - May 2008
- 56687 reads
- 2 comments
Orthotics are an integral part of podiatric practice. They provide viable treatment options for many conditions that we treat. However, there are also associated hard costs with orthotics that can be a financial detriment to the practice if the office cannot collect fees in a timely fashion.
Obviously, your staff should be very aware of coverage criteria for the principal insurance companies that your office commonly deals with when it comes to payment for any service rendered in the office. This will save a lot of time in determining whether orthotics may be a covered benefit for the patient. In regard to lesser known insurance companies, it is wise for office staff to contact them in order to determine eligibility and coverage criteria.
Collecting payment for dispensed orthotics seems to be a sticking point for many offices. Custom orthotics are not inexpensive so affordability becomes an issue. Being upfront with the patient in regard to your fees will put all parties on the same page. This candor allows patients the opportunity to decide if they wish to proceed with obtaining orthotics if the insurance company does not pay for them.
Each office should devise a form that states the cost of the orthotics and associated charges such as casting, orthotic adjustments, etc. Your office should also devise a policy as to what is included in the orthotic fee especially when it comes to patients who are paying cash.
If the insurance carrier does not cover orthotics, many of the services we commonly perform in conjunction with orthotics may not be covered as well. For example, Medicare does not pay for foot orthotics (unless they are associated in a diabetic shoe or with the shoe that is attached to a brace). Medicare will also not pay for range of motion and muscle testing if the testing is related to orthotic fabrication, casting, dispensing and adjustments to the orthotics.
Addressing Informed Consent And Patient Expectations
With any type of service we provide, we need to obtain informed consent.We do not proceed with a surgery without explaining certain risks and benefits. If you cannot meet the patient's expectations for the surgery, then obviously the patient will be disappointed. Give similar consideration to orthotic devices.Although orthotics can make patients better, they cannot always offer the ideal therapeutic solution. Patients will continue to have high arch or low arch feet, and may accordingly be subject to strain and stress with increased activities. Patients need to be aware that the intent of the orthotics is to improve the function of the foot but the DPM can give no guarantees that the patient will be pain-free.
I use the analogy of a pair of eyeglasses in the office. Orthotics do not alter the foot but they simply make it work better.There are no guarantees that glasses will give the patient 20/20 vision or that orthotics can allow the patient pain-free activity levels. Unlike a pair of glasses, which you can pretty much tell immediately if they work, orthotics will not offer instantaneous improvements but will offer benefits over the course of weeks and months.
Also discuss shoe gear with patients to better determine the proper type of orthotic to prescribe. Patients may be upset if they find that the orthotics fit a very limited number of shoes. The more patients are aware of how orthotics work, the more compliance and satisfaction you will see in these patients.
Have patients sign a payment agreement. This is helpful in documenting that they understand their responsibilities and realize the service may not be covered by their insurance carrier. Also be upfront with the patient when insurance coverage by the carrier is unclear. Most carriers, even if they render an authorization, will still have a disclaimer.The patient's policy must be active at the time of service and the services must be medically necessary.
CAN YOU BILL FOR ADJUSMENTS TO ORTHOTICS DISPENSED 2 MONTHS PRIOR? IF SO, WHAT CODE?Reply to this comment »
Great Article. We have been using the L3030 code across the board as our doctor says its what we need to do. We bill the initial E/M code along with the L3030. When the patient returns to pick up the orthotics, we don't charge. I know we are loosing money; what is a better description of L3030 -Why is a plaster/cast mold not L3030? What material is for L3030?Reply to this comment »

Ho, who won matching 6-2 sets, has now won consecutive matches playing in the Oles' first singles spot. In the two wins, Ho has won 24 games while dropping just seven. She currently has a 3-1 record in singles play this season.
Sarah Carlson '10 has also won back-to-back matches in singles play for the Oles. Carlson rallied back from a 6-4 loss in the first set to win the second set 6-2. She secured St. Olaf's second and final team point Friday by winning a convincing tiebreaker 10-2.
However, the women suffered from lackluster doubles play and found themselves down 3-0 after being swept.
Kristina Poplavska '09 and Ellen Goerss '09 struggled against St. Benedict's top doubles pairing, which featured two of the Bennies' senior leaders, and fell 8-1 in the opening match.
Aimee Ny '10 and Carlson formed the second St. Olaf pairing, but found similar results as they lost 8-4. The first-year combination of Anna Klenke and Ho fell in the third and final doubles match eight games to six, ensuring the Bennies' sweep heading into singles play.
Aside from Ho's and Carlson's wins, the Oles struggled in their matches on the singles courts. Poplavska played in the second singles spot and lost two sets with scores of 6-4 and 6-2.
Goerss played a tough opening set in third singles, but fell 7-6 and could not rebound. She lost her second set 6-2 which clinched the match for St. Benedict.
Ida Holdahl '11 suffered a similar outcome playing in the sixth singles position. She lost her opening set 7-6, and her second-set rally fell short as she lost 6-4.
Friday's conference loss places the Oles seventh in the MIAC standings with a 1-2 record. St. Benedict's, which improved to 4-1 overall this season with the win, is trying to match last season's 8-2 MIAC record.
The women look to rebound on the court this weekend as they travel to Moorhead, Minn. for a Sunday morning MIAC matchup with the Concordia Cobbers.
The final indoor match of the season is set to start at 8 a.m.
Last season, the Oles defeated the Cobbers 6-3 on the Carlson Courts, and had a 3-2 record heading into spring break.

What Do You Want Gizmodo To Do More Of?
Gizmodo began as a compendium of gadgets; page after page of strictly hardware and gear. But in the decade since, the ways society talks about and interacts with technology have evolved. This site has, too. And as we continue to, I'd like to know what you want to see us doing more of—or less—along the way. »

This review is outdated. Information may be inaccurate.
Stone Castle Publications have years of experience producing spanking magazines and they bring to you Vixen Ladies, a collection of no-nonsense women who will punish any man who misbehaves in their company. The content here is completely unique, all filmed at various locations in Poole, Dorset. Some of the women are even available for one-on-one real-life spanking sessions, though a trip to England might be a long way to travel to get your buttocks reddened.
The design of VixenLadies is quite good overall - the colors echo that of a well-punished backside and the navigation is simplicity itself, with everything running off the main menu on the homepage. There are 278 sets of high-res photos and there are around 70 pics in each set.
Still photos just don't seem to portray the whole spanking experience very well, but these contain naughty dudes over female knees, leaning over desks and kneeling on a bed, all taking punishment from a beautiful, fully clothed woman. There is little to no sexual stimulation in these photos except for the spanking, paddling or caning being given out. This is definitely a fetish site, aimed specifically at submissive men who enjoy pain and humiliation.
The 123 videos are mostly split up into two-minute clips and the movies usually come in something like five to nine parts. The videos come in Windows Media format and the newer ones have improved a lot and offer stellar-quality playback. They provide a complete experience as you can see the action and hear the sounds of hands spanking down on butt flesh, as well as the moans and groans of pain and pleasure.
Each video has a theme and some tilted acting, where you can appreciate the beauty of these British beauties and their sexy English accents. There are scenes of aunties spanking fully grown nephews, wives beating husbands and cheating guys being punished by the women they were cheating on. These ladies are serious about their punishment, so you won't find any sexual pleasuring going on here, it's purely and simply about pain.
There used to be stories and artwork included with a membership, but they seem to be gone now. The extras that remain are sample clips taken from websites like Hard Spanking Vixens and Linas House Of Discipline. You can get full access to these sites if you're willing to pay extra when you first sign up.
Vixen Ladies is a well-designed Femdom site. If you are into powerful, no-nonsense women punishing men, then you'll have no complaints about what you get for your money here. Updates get posted twice a week, so things continue to improve.

Cloud gazing
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Cloud gazing, or Aeromancy, is the scientific study of cloud formations. This often often done in the belief in a connection between the atmospheric conditions and terrestrial matters.
Cloud gazing has played an important part in human history, having various regional branches including Indian or Chinese aeromancy, and European aeromancy. Cloud gazing has in fact been instrumental in shaping the course of human history.
edit Etymology
Aeromancy come from the Greek ἀήρ, ἀέρος, (aer, aeros) meaning "air" and the verb Μανία (mania) meaning "madness, frenzy". This reflects that early cloud gazers looked at clouds with a fervent passion - a passion that is still matched in professional cloud-gazing today.
The first recorded instance of cloud gazing as a modern science being used was found in Chambers, Cycl. Supp, 1753. It was defined as "That department of ʃience which trætſ of the atmoſfere". This has often been referred to as an early form of meteorology, although it has been suggested that this was generally just developed from awkward social occasions where everyone just stood around and talked about the weather.
edit Current practice
Cloud gazing can be practiced by anyone, given sufficient clouds. It can be done indoors, though more commonly practiced outside. Reading the clouds for amusement is not a new past-time, and engaged by many as a hobby, but professional cloud reading is a very serious business, with stronger academic roots than ever before, and providing lucrative opportunities after study. The cloud gazing business in the US generates approximately 15% of the gross national product.
An intense and rigorous pursuit of study in school cloud gazers have to hone a variety of skills and talents. Some suggest that cloud gazers are born, not made. It does require prodigious demands on the faculties of the cloud gazer to pursue gazing as a career choice. Cloud gazers who wish to go professional after school will have to be versed in all the major cloud forms, not only in identification but reading and predictive morphology, as well as being able to demonstrate a clear understanding of the portents the clouds forewarn. Generally practitioners don't travel far from their universities or colleges where they got their degree, since climate patterns in other areas may prove obstacles to what they're familiar with, while for others this is a reason to voyage out.
Of course Masters and PhDs are also offered at some schools, and are generally better paid after school, as their advanced studies will often specialize in particular concentrations, such as Pileus or Cumulus. Very specialized fields, like Altostratus Undulatus and Cumulonimbus Calvus are offered at fewer universities, and often students must go to specialty cloud gazing and reading schools for their degree.
edit Predictive morphology
There are various methods used toward divination from cloud formations, however the Encyclopedia of Occultism & Parapsychology, Fifth Edition, Vol. 2 edited by J. Gordon Melton, notes:
| In order to divine terrestrial events from the atmospheric conditions the diviner or gazer must first empty their mind of all conscious thought. This is a skill that takes some practioners many years of effort, however thers are more naturally inclined toward lack of thought initially.
The diviner now looks at the pattern of clouds in the sky and allows the imagination to play around the colours and shapes suggested by them. They might look like a letter, a heart shape, or a fluffy white thingy. These shapes are then interpreted intuitively or by means of a fairly standard system of symbolism, such as: snake (enmity or falsehood), spade (good fortune through industry), mountain (journey of hindrance), or fluffy white thing (change, success).
Melton's notion that readers give intuitive interpretations reflects his unfamiliarity with cloud reading; most readers use the standard symbols that have been handed down through several generations. There are, however, many who prefer to read by feel and intuition, as stated by Melton. The most common readings however are:
|Atmospheric conditions
|Clear skies
Sun shining
|The sun will set within 12 hours.
|Clear skies
Stars/moon shining
|The sun will rise within 12 hours
(It may be more approriate to take up Astrology.)
|Significant cloud cover
Dark grey colour
|It may start raining
|Significant cloud cover
Water falling from sky
|It will stop raining eventually
edit Early Origins
Cloud gazing in its broadest sense, is the search for meaning in the cloud formations. It has therefore been argued that aeromancy began as a study as soon as human beings made conscious attempts to measure and record their experiences staring at clouds. This argument is obviously idiotic and can be dismissed out of hand as the ravings of an individual with extraordinarily low IQ.
Cloud gazing has been dated back to Isrealite times. It was mentioned in Deuteronomy 18 as being condemned by Moses, who felt that staring at stone tablets with a dozen or so commandments on them was better than staring into the sky and relaxing.
It is also condemned by Albertus Magnus in Speculum Astronomiae, who describes the practice as a derivative of nigromancy (a form of divination via necromancy). Why he believed dead people were pushing around the clouds and making them form into different shapes is still unknown, but it is believed to be related to his own practice of al-essdy (divination via hallucinogenics).
In Renaissance magic, aeromancy was classified as one of the seven "forbidden arts," along with necromancy, geomancy, hydromancy, pyromancy, chiromancy (palmistry), and masturbation.
edit Modern Controversy
In 1926 Hitler stated in his book Mein Kampf that his political opponents often used cloud gazing to create their political opinions, and referred to them living in Cloud Cuckoo Land. This effectively discredited his opponents, and allowed him to take power over Germany, which then lead to WWII. It is commonly believed by supporters of cloud gazing that it was primarily due to this prejudice that millions of people died.
Starting in the 1980s the debate as to the practicality and utility of cloud gazing being offered in schools was seriously challenged. It was listed, along with egg nog smithery, tree refueling, and conversational binary as one of the courses proposed to be axed under the Regean administration. In the proposal drafted by the 1986 Congress these courses were cited to 'have no friggin purpose' and 'be a total waste of time', despite time wasting being proven to have many benefits.

The 3rd Annual Jennifer Garmany Hallmark 5K Memorial Scholarship Run will be held on Saturday, Sept. Sept. 27, at 8 a.m. Participants can register and pay online here or participants can fill out the registration form and deliver via mail or in person. For more information about the race, contact Dr. Amy Langley at email@example.com or call 256-840-4185.
Amanda Garmany remembers the day her sister-in-law, the late Jennifer Garmany Hallmark, convinced her to enroll in the RN program at Snead State Community College.
"I'll never forget the day she asked me, 'You want to go to nursing school?' Jennifer was super smart, but she was always the one who passed out when she had to have her blood drawn. I never knew she was even interested in nursing," said Mrs. Garmany.
Mrs. Hallmark was a wife to Shane and a stay-at-home mom to 6-year-old Arianna. She valued her faith and her family as the most important parts of her life. But she opened her life up to studying to be a nurse, and she did so with her sister-in-law at her side.
"We felt God leading us to nursing school. Jennifer was my right-hand man. She was super smart, and once she learned something, she remembered it, even if it was something we studied a while ago. When we were in clinicals, she did what needed to be done without a problem, and she did a good job. She studied and worked hard. She wasn't a procrastinator.
"We got through it all together with strength from God. She loved serving older people, and her goal was to be the head over a nursing home," said Mrs. Garmany.
The sisters-in-law enrolled at Snead State in 2008. After completing the core curriculum, they began striving for their Associate in Nursing degree, which they achieved in the Spring of 2011. Mrs. Hallmark was recognized for maintaining the highest GPA in her class as both a first-year and second-year RN student.
But before Mrs. Hallmark could claim the diploma she earned, she – along with her husband, her in-laws, and her nephew – was killed as a result of the April 27, 2011, tornados that hit Marshall County. As her family coped with the tragedy, Mrs. Hallmark's Snead family also mourned the loss of a woman whose heart was to serve God and others.
"Her heart was on fire for God, and she gave Him the glory in everything she did. She loved her family, and we both knew how very blessed we were to have supportive families we could rely on while we were in school," said Mrs. Garmany.
Mrs. Hallmark's achievements and legacy did not go uncelebrated. Her memory was honored at Snead State Community College during the RN Pinning Ceremony on May 11 and the Spring Commencement Ceremony on May 12, 2011. Ari attended both ceremonies to accept the nursing pin and Associate in Nursing degree awarded posthumously to her mother. Her family has also honored her memory by establishing the Jennifer Garmany Hallmark Scholarship Fund.

Minnesota Legislature: A few job-climate positives
Wednesday, April 24, 2013
Opposition to legislative proposals from Minnesota's business community has received plenty of attention on these pages, and at the Capitol.
But, from a better-business-climate-leads-to-more-jobs perspective, what about measures business leaders see as helpful?
The list is relatively short, they say, but it does include some positives.
Exemption from up-front sales taxes for capital purchases would eliminate a refund process, providing an example of the streamlining efforts businesses say they need from government.
With more capital to work with, and purchases made easier and less expensive, "you would expect more capital investment," John Spry, a University of St. Thomas economics professor, told us.

A MASSIVE CONGRATZ go out to Dane Reynolds for being named 2008 ASP Rookie of the Year! Although Dane admittedly surfs more for personal performance benchmarks rather than a rating or placing, he left no one guessing as to his ability to put a heat together let alone blow the minds of everyone on the beaches and on the web around the world. In fact his 1st event at Snapper in the Quik Pro Aus. saw Dane throw down one the most dynamic maneuvers of the event, a layback blow tail fin release into a sliding double handed recovery. Without a doubt, one if not the best turn of the entire event, he finished 17th. His season looked a little like this on his way to ASP ROOKIE OF THE YEAR. A 5th pl. at Bells and a 9th in Tahiti. A pair of 5th's at Trestles and the Quik Pro France followed by an unexpected ankle injury he suffered after Mundaka while freesurfing that forced him to miss Brazil. Dane closed the season with a valiant effort to compete at Pipe despite only being at 20% on his ankle. To top it off while juggling his travel schedule of the tour, he has gained momentum editorially and finished 3rd overall at this years Surfer Poll. Here is one of his latest covers featuring Dane in the Feb. issue of TWS.
Everyone at QS as I'm sure all of Dane's fans are looking forward to next year to see what he will bring to each event. This guy is GOOD!

"The final product for our invite turned out perfect. The designers did a fantastic job and the customer service was top notch, we asked for a few additions and some word changes such as "bridal shower" to "wedding shower". The result was just perfect (looked like it was the original design) and I couldn't have been more pleased with the result. I would highly recommend this design."
"I ordered this magnet solely because my fiance wanted them. I was good with postcard- simple/cheap/out the door.

BUT WAS I SURPRISED! The photos are completely clear and lovely on this heavy duty magnet! Only worry is the cost of shipping- have a feeling the regular stamp wont cover the weight of these puppies but I am still overjoyed with the finished product!"

Research to enhance
red raspberries
National Roadmap for Red Raspberry Research, Teaching and Outreach Activities
According to Catherine Daniels, WSU Extension Specialist, a two-year effort has resulted in the National Roadmap for Red Raspberry Research, Teaching and Outreach Activities document. This is the last of the outputs promised when USDA-SCRI funded a planning grant. The other two outputs were the open meetings during 2012 in Sandusky and Seattle. Information from the open meetings was included with industry documents and used to sketch out this roadmap. She notes that her hope is that it will be a useful starting point, and, that as a group, you'll want to update it over time as more common opportunities and challenges are identified. It is also her hope that one or more of you will host this document (and future updates) on your website(s). The SCRI Raspberry Group is continuing to prepare a full research grant proposal so as to be ready for a USDA call-for-proposals. They feel strongly that thry can successfully tackle some of the research needs indentified and contribute to industry growth. If you have questions, please let Catherine know.
Creating practical, economic, and environmental progress for the red raspberry industry through research
In Spring and Summer, red raspberry growers are concentrated on growing a quality crop, getting it harvested and maximizing their income. Fall and Winter are for vacationing, planning, going to meetings and workshops to meet with other growers, learn about the results of the previous season's research or new ways to grow a better crop. Perhaps there is new machinery on the market that offer new ways to harvest or spay that could be used on their farm. Maybe there is new information about a pest insect or disease that will reduce a spray treatment or focus it for the most impact. There might be a new cultivar that shows promise. All those possibilities come from some sort of research or R&D done by someone.
Every year the Washington Red Raspberry Commission decides on the areas of research that the Board feels are most significant. Then the Commission requests proposals from those who do research through the publication of a RFP (request for proposal). Though most research has traditionally been done by Land Grant University scientists, anyone can offer a proposal for consideration.
After the annual meeting held in December, the Commission decides on the amount of funds it can spend to support research. The Commission receives the proposals and the Board chooses those they feel will benefit the industry the most. Board members are volunteers and it's to their credit that they take the time and energy to sift through the proposals and make a decision for the good of all Washington red raspberry growers.

The River Sheaf in Abbeydale
Parts of the mill are still visible today if you look very carefully. The back of the wheel-pit and outlines of the buildings to the east of the stream can be seen. Bits of the weir and the goit earthworks on the Ryecoft are visible.
The bank of the dam contains lead slag, particularly on the eastern edge running towards Limb brook.

Really good and easy to make. I used Haagen Dazs vanilla ice cream. The amaretti crust is amazing. I might sprinkle crushed amaretti on top next time. The texture of the whole apricots was kind of strange. Next time I will make a little more of the apricot puree and put half on the crust and half between the ice cream layers.
Apricot Almond Swirl Ice Cream Pie
Photo: Yunhee Kim; Styling: Karen Shinto
A crunchy, almondy crust of ground-up amaretti cookies holds vanilla ice cream layered with honey-simmered apricots—on the bottom, a puree in the middle, and more puree curlicued over the top. We used an 8-in. cheesecake pan with removable sides, but you could also use a regular 9-in. pie pan and sprinkle the toasted almonds on top instead of packing them onto the outside of the pie.

- Cookie Crust, using amaretti* and an 8-in. cheesecake pan with removable sides
- 1 cup toasted sliced almonds
- 1. Simmer apricots with 1 1/2 cups water and the honey, covered, until apricots are very soft, 15 minutes; let cool. Take 1 qt. ice cream out of freezer to soften.
- 2. Arrange 1 cup apricots over cooled cookie crust. Whirl remaining apricots and liquid in a blender into a thick, pourable purée (add more water if needed). Strain.
- 3. Stir softened ice cream until smooth. Spread over apricots in crust, set on a plate, and freeze until firm, about 1 hour. Spoon on all but 2 tbsp. apricot purée. Freeze until purée firms, about 1 1/2 hours.
- 4. Let remaining 1 qt. ice cream soften; spread over purée. Top ice cream with small dollops of remaining purée, then swirl with a chopstick. Freeze 2 hours more.
- 5. Remove sides of pan and pat almonds firmly into sides of pie. Serve immediately.
- *Get super-flavorful dried Blenheim apricots by mail from brfarms.com Find crunchy, very almondy Italian amaretti in well-stocked grocery stores. Or use almond biscotti instead and whirl in 1 tsp. almond extract with the melted butter.
- More pie tips:
- Let the pie soften for 5 minutes at room temp to make slicing easier.
- If you're having trouble freeing your pie from its pan, set it over a bowl of hot water for a couple of minutes and then slide a thin knife between the pan edge and the crust. It should pop right out.
- Make ahead: Once the pie is fully frozen through step 4, it keeps for up to 4 days, double-wrapped in plastic wrap. Top with almonds just before serving.

In this day and age, a lot of people are quite thankful to have received the innovations that technology has provided. Convenience is at an all-time high compared to the days of old, where everything used to be manually done.
Of course, some practices still carry on up to this very day, including exercising and healthy eating in order for people to actually acquire a fitter and slimmer physique.
Yet, in relation to the conveniences of modern living, there are some individuals out there who wish to make the weight loss process even lesser of a burden. This is where one might actually find a lot of benefit in the use of fat burners.
Fat burning supplements have become quite popular as of recent times simply because they are effective forms of assistance to people who are struggling with obesity.
It can be particularly difficult for some overweight individuals to achieve the results they desire with just exercises and dieting, after all.
Therefore, making use of fat burning products such as pills can certainly prove quite gratifying. In essence, a fat burner does exactly what it is advertised to do – burn fat.
There are loads of benefits that one can experience when using these products, with three of them provided below.
- One would experience increased metabolism upon using fat burning products. One would simply be able to burn a lot more calories when performing physically intense activities such as playing sports or engaging in exercise. This simply means that a person who is living his or her day to day routines can expect to shed a few more pounds with any amount of physical activity performed. After all, the burning of calories simply equates to weight loss.
- There's also the enhancement of a person's energy levels to look forward to when using these supplements. Fat burning products are known to help a person perform a lot better physically, thus eliminating the possibility of quick exhaustion. With this, a person who is a little, or even greatly overweight can expect to exercise a lot more, implement a more active lifestyle as well as burn fat quite efficiently.
- Suppressing the appetite is certainly one of the key benefits that one can experience with fat burners. It surely does pose a challenge for someone to lose weight if they're eating a lot of food just to nourish their cravings. However, these pills can make one feel as if their stomachs are full even with just a small portion of their meals consumed. With this taking place, the body will then resort to the stored fats as a means of using up energy. It will convert those fats into fuel that will allow a person to be physically engaged, thus leading to significant weight loss.
These are the three major benefits that one can expect when he or she uses fat burners, especially when accompanied by exercise and dieting.

Conservative leader
The loyalty of most of the Conservative former ministers to Peel and the death of Bentinck made Disraeli indisputably the leader of the opposition in the Commons. Disraeli spent the next few years trying to extricate his party from what he had come to recognize as the hopeless cause of protection. While Disraeli's policy was sensible, it raised mistrust among his followers, as did his pride in and insistence upon his Jewish ancestry. The party could not, however, do without his talents. His election to Parliament as member for Buckinghamshire in 1847 and his purchase of Hughenden Manor, near High Wycombe, in 1848 fortified his social and political power. His finances, however, remained shaky.
When the Whig government fell in 1852 and the earl of Derby, leader of the Conservative Party, formed a short-lived minority government, Disraeli was chancellor of the Exchequer despite his protest that he knew nothing of finance. His budget in fact brought the government down in 1852, though Disraeli could hardly be blamed. The free-trade majority in the Commons was determined to defeat measures that relieved agriculture, even though the method chosen did not involve protection, yet Disraeli had to bring forward some such proposals to placate his followers. Again, until 1858, the Tories were in opposition. Then Derby again formed a minority government with Disraeli as chancellor of the Exchequer. Disraeli for some time had felt there was no reason to allow parliamentary reform to be a Whig monopoly, and so he introduced a moderate reform bill in 1859. The bill, however, seemed too obviously designed to help his party, and so it was defeated; the Tories again were out of office and remained so for six years.
In 1865 when the Whig-Liberal leader Lord Russell brought forward a moderate reform bill, a combination of Tory opposition and a revolt against Russell toppled his government. Derby formed his third minority government with Disraeli as chancellor of the Exchequer. Although the initiative for a new Conservative reform bill came from Queen Victoria and Lord Derby, Disraeli introduced it in the Commons and conducted the fight for it with unsurpassed enthusiasm and mastery of parliamentary tactics. He believed the bill should be a sweeping one with certain safeguards, and he was determined that it should be carried by a Conservative government. The Liberals, however, had a majority, and he had to accept their amendments, which removed nearly all the safeguards. The bill that passed doubled the existing electorate and was more democratic than most Conservatives had foreseen. Derby called it a leap in the dark, but Disraeli could fairly claim that the bill had gone far toward realizing the dream of my life and re-establishing Toryism as a national foundation.
In 1868 when Derby retired from politics, Disraeli became prime minister. Yes, he said in reply to a friend's congratulations, I have climbed to the top of a greasy pole. The government was only a caretaker one, for the general election awaited only the completion of a new electoral register, and later in 1868 the Liberals won. Disraeli set a precedent by resigning before Parliament met.
In the following 12-year period, politics changed from the chaotic collection of ill-defined, shifting groups that had been common from the beginning of Disraeli's career. Now the old politics defined by personalities shifted to an emergence of two parties with coherent policies. The party leaders, Disraeli and William E. Gladstone, were implacable enemies, and they polarized the parties.
At first Disraeli played a comparatively peaceful role. He tried to create a new image for the Conservative Party that he hoped would persuade the new electorate. His seeming apathy disturbed his followers, and his novel Lothair (3 vol., 1870), a political comedy, seemed to some of them undignified.
From 1872, however, Disraeli ran the party with a firm hand. He sharply differentiated Conservative from Liberal policy on several issues: he defended the monarchy, the House of Lords, and the church against what he took to be the threat of radical Liberal policy; he put forth a policy to consolidate the empire, with special emphasis on India; he dwelt on social reform; he enunciated a strong foreign policy, especially against Russia.
In 1872 Disraeli's wife died of cancer after many months of illness. Her death brought material losses: her house in London and her fortune passed to cousins. At age 68 his health was not good, but he turned implacably to political battle. He began a romantic friendship with two sisters, Lady Bradford and Lady Chesterfield, with whom he corresponded on politics and his personal feelings until his death.
His political fortunes turned when Gladstone's ministry was defeated in 1873. When Gladstone resigned, Disraeli refused to take office, pleading there was too much uncompleted business to dissolve Parliament, and that a minority government could only damage his party's prospects. Gladstone reluctantly returned to office, but within a year he dissolved the Parliament himself. Disraeli had been at work on party organization and electoral machinery, and the Conservatives won a resounding victory in 1874.

Much like the murderous mutant cannibals who stalk the rocky cliffs in the film, The Hills Have Eyes 2 is cretinous, gruesome, and relentless. Of course, those who actually had held out hope that this sequel to Alexandre Aja's commendable but flawed 2006 remake would be any better than the laughable sequel to the original were likely only fooling themselves to begin with. And while that pile of celluloid slop at least took a stab at continuing the original storyline, this hastily assembled stalk-and-slash fiasco simply falls back on the old formula of introducing pretty stereotypes and knocking them off one by one -- and with nary a dog flashback in sight. To deny the impact that Wes Craven has had on contemporary horror cinema would be ignorant; however, it's important to note that while Craven's strongest visions as a director/screenwriter have been iconic (A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream), his later efforts in those arenas occasionally leave much to be desired (Cursed, Pulse). While as a filmmaker Craven has proven especially adept at tapping into universal cultural fears, as a screenwriter his attempts to shock have often proven silly and ham-handed. The reason that the "original" Hills Have Eyes movies (both the 1977 film and the 2006 remake) resonated so well with viewers is that they both pitted your typical nuclear family against your decidedly atypical atomic radiation-mutated clan -- the idea of having to band together with your own family in order to avoid being slaughtered and consumed by another family effectively reflected growing Cold War fears back in 1977 and still felt compelling nearly 30 years later. Even if the 2006 remake didn't offer as much distinct characterization in regards to the mutant clan, the political slant injected by screenwriters Aja and Gregory Levasseur was enough to keep things current while being reasonably faithful to the ideas put forth in the 1977 original.
Flash forward just one year later, and all co-screenwriters Wes and Jonathan Craven seem interested in is getting a group of pretty faces up in those hills and dispatching with them in the most brutal (yet strikingly uncreative) ways imaginable. Curiously enough, son Jonathan was also the primary screenwriter for the similarly lame-brained 1995 shocker The Outpost (originally conceived as "The Hills Have Eyes 3") -- which found a group of government scientists locked in an underground bunker with a super-powered mutant. Even back then, the plot for The Outpost seemed tired and all-too-familiar. Now it seems that audiences are being asked not only to lap up regurgitated gruel -- but regurgitated gruel that was originally consumed well after the expiration date. When all is said and done, The Hills Have Eyes 2 certainly delivers if all you're looking for is a generic Friday the 13th clone set on a desert mountainside, yet even viewers who are willing to check their brains at the door are likely to feel cheated when they're handed back their grey matter after the credits roll.

Finally Got It?
Okay … I'm cautiously optimistic here … Here's hoping that this border is going to work. It's narrower than I had really wanted … about 4-5″ wide, but I think it will work. I hope.
So … in terms of other news? Not much. First Monday of Daylight Savings Time, so getting out of bed this morning was hard. The fact that it was raining didn't help.
I DO have a bunch of links for you, though.
From BoogaJ, this great animated video, "Sita Sings the Blues: The Greatest Break-Up Story of All Time." It tells the Indian legend of Rama and Sita, but with clever animation and fantastic music from Annette Hanshaw (a 1920s jazz singer).
Over at Ask the Bellwether, she mentioned this new travel spinning wheel. The SpinOlution Bee. OMG, how adorable is that? Look at it!
Speaking of wheelmakers, wheelwright Bill Wyatt passed away this weekend. I never met him, but have heard about his legendary wheels and therefore mourn.
Then … I've heard of people proposing marriage on their own blogs, but how many people think to get help from someone else's?
Do you still have a VCR? Don't throw it out! You can hack it and get all sorts of useful things … just, make sure you have a bag of marshmallows handy. (Trust me on this one. That 2 minute video is worth it.)
Tired of spinning that boring old wool and cotton and other traditional fibers? How about spinning … newspaper! (No, seriously.)

Good luck on the border!!
We didn't have rain yesterday morning, fortunately. But apparently there will be snow today. Blech.
Flickr is having issues so I can't see the picture. Sad to hear about Wyatt. His wheels are on my lifetime wishlist. The spinning community has lost an artist.
Risa's last blog post..Mojo
The border is looking good! Did you know that yesterday was National Napping Day? (The first Monday after DST when everybody drags themselves out of bed.) My husband took the day off and celebrated! LOL!
Mary's last blog post..E is for
That border looks great. And, it shouldn't roll under. Looks like success!
gail's last blog post..Accomplishment!!
K, some freaky links here…must go see!
Tanya's last blog post..Yup, and there was the floor (and pimps)
Did you watch it? Pretty cool, huh?
Julie's last blog post..Go Watch Sita Sings the Blues
Hello Stranger -
I would love to see your lovely thow, but none of the photos have been loading lately. Good luck on the border. I will call you soon.
Your new border solution looks like a terrific compromise. Don't you want to scream when you realize that your first choice means you will run out of yarn before it's done? Can't wait to see it finished and learn all the details (size, yardage, etc.) and how you like it.
BTW an elderly friend who does plastic canvas work was using a plastic yarn needle with a MUCH smaller eye than the new ones I have seen. She said she got it just a couple of months ago in the cross-stitch section of her local Jo-Anns! Might be worth checking out! I know how much you miss your old favorite.
I still USE my VCR….for all those old spinning and knitting and weaving videos I collected over the years!

Our final stop on our adventure in Chile was Santiago. Santiago is a very modern city with a large population and is completely surrounded by the Andes mountains. From almost every point in the city you can see the snowcapped Andes, which made us excited to get up to the snow! We walked around the city exploring the many sites, restaurants, and one of the largest malls in the world. My favorite outfit during my urban adventures consisted of skinny black jeans, my fringe sweater, and a fedora. This was a casual, yet stylish outfit that was comfortable to walk in and perfect for the cool nights. I love the boho vibe of this sweater and felt it went great with all the brightly colored buildings of Chile.
After a couple days in the city we decided to venture up the mountain and end our trip with snowboarding. We actually managed to drive up the mountain, snowboard until dark, and then hop on our flight home all in one day!
Keep reading for tips on where to sleep in Santiago, shop in the city, and where to snowboard in the Andes! (more…)

Summer Intern Approved | The RVCA Cooler Satchel
Take this RVCA vacancy cooler with you anywhere. The uses are endless and so are the beers that fit inside this handy parrot covered man purse. Avoid wrapping your beers up in a t-shirt or getting caught looking like a bum by drinking out of a brown paper bag! It's no longer a mission hauling your 6 pack down to the beach, you can disguise this cooler as a beach bag and look super trendy while doing it.

Take A Walk. Style Post by Guest Blogger, Leah.
One of the greatest ways to have an adventure is to simply walk. It's hard to enjoy the world around you when it's passing by at 60 miles per hour. Sometimes in life we need to just get out and take a walk. Whether that walk is in a city, down a country road, or on the sand, few things are more enjoyable than truly stopping to "smell the roses". Whether those "roses" are the smells from corner pastry shops, the rustling of flowers, or the splashing of tide pools, taking the time to go enjoy your surroundings is so refreshing. Getting to enjoy life as it surrounds you, not as you look on from behind a glass window. This past weekend I took advantage of my summer schedule to enjoy a hike in the Bolsa Chica Wetlands in Huntington Beach.

Sweet, Sweet Summer Style Post by Guest Blogger, Leah.
Since I was a little girl, my family has always been all about fresh fruit. My mom and dad would never pass up a fruit stand. Living in Southern California, we have always had access to many. One of the greatest things about summer is that all of my favorite fruits are in season, and I can promise you that it always tastes better when you get to buy it fresh from the farmer. I wore my brightly colored summer dress with a pair of platform sandals for a weekend visit to a fruit stand in Huntington Beach California. I love that this dress is as sweet and fresh as a new case of strawberries on a warm summer's day. Nothing says summer like enjoying some local grown fruit in a cute summer dress!

I saw Sinaxi flipping her shit so I got so afraid they killed off Rebekah I had to check the tags I'm trash
this fbi virus scam is getting out of hand damn short list to remind me
- don't click on urls who message you
- don't click on urls who reblog you
- real blogs are being affected and is spreading the shit so even people you know - don't click the url
- so basically don't click on urls
- don't click on tiny grey boxes on your dashboard
- ignore strange blogs that follow you
- scan for malware from time to time
- pray to your gods
- stay on netflix and ps
Im laughing rn it just occurred to me that since I never wear my glasses I've never really noticed everything is a little out of focus for me
and that I might in fact be oversharpening everything I make, so I checked my gifs and let me tell you son they did not look like that when I made them
Monsters didn't fear. They were fear.
Now I had a chance to try that for myself.
in order to make a gif as your tumblr icon if you're a chrome user you have to download an add on in order for you to see it; however, firefox, ie and opera users don't need any add ons to see it :—))
so doing that, you're going to need a .gif to .apng converter NOT .png…

[Image Description: A twitter conversation between lizzie c and British feminist writer Caitilin Moran:
lizzie c: "what a surprise @caitilinmoran loves lena dunham. white feminists who ignore the experiences of WOCs have got to stick together guys!!!"
Caitilin Moran: "@lizziecoan THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT"
lizzie c: "@caitilinmoran did you address the complete and utter lack of people of colour in girls in your interview? i sure hope so!"
Caitilin Moran: "@lizziecoan Nope. I literally couldn't give a shit aboutit."]in which caitlin moran reaffirms her status as an arsehole
caitlin moran legitmately just told me that she could not give a shit about the representation of WOC. SHE JUST SAID THOSE EXACT WORDS. as one of the most prominent feminists in the UK today, her particular brand of white middle class feminism is THE FUCKING PITS AND I HATE HER. please excuse my rage but CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS.
her book is called 'how to be a woman'. HOW TO BE A FUCKING WOMAN.
can i not be a woman if i think representation of WOC in modern media is really important? more important than the representation of white women?
fuckkkkk her
