LEWISTOWN, Md. (AP) —
The man was pronounced dead Thursday at Frederick Memorial Hospital. He was not identified.
The sheriff's office says the man was found lying on the floor of a home garage on Putman Road about 5:30 p.m. Thursday. The office says a deputy saw the man through a garage window and could hear a lawn mower running.
The deputy and a neighbor who tried to help the man were both exposed to carbon monoxide. They were taken to a hospital, and were expected to be treated and released.
Volunteer firefighters aired out the house, and fire officials say the carbon monoxide levels returned to normal.

Just a few of the bills proposed by the GOP-controlled House so far in 2011:
Just a few of the bills proposed by the GOP-controlled House so far in 2011:
Val Kalende, chairwoman of one of Uganda's gay rights groups, on the death of David Kato
David Kato, in 2010
Here in the US, calling opponents "evil" has become a common part of using extreme rhetoric to gain attention, a way to push the Overton window further to the right. It's irresponsible speech here. Doing this in a country where the group one is calling evil is already extremely marginalized is much more irresponsible.
The Americans involved claim they had no intention of provoking a violent reaction, which suggests that they must be lying, or as dumb as a bag of hammers. Either way, they share in the responsibility for this man's death and the ongoing repression and violence occurring there.
David Neiwert, reporting on the murder of Brisenia Flores and her father, by an extreme right-wing offshoot of the Minutemen.
…it is a very natural thing that weak and vicious minds should be inflamed to acts of violence by the kind of awful mendacity and abuse that have been heaped upon me for the last three months by the papers in the interest of not only Mr. Debs but of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taft.
Friends, I will disown and repudiate any man of my party who attacks with such foul slander and abuse any opponent of any other party; and now I wish to say seriously to all the daily newspapers, to the Republicans, the Democrat, and Socialist parties, that they cannot, month in month out and year in and year out, make the kind of untruthful, of bitter assault that they have made and not expect that brutal, violent natures, or brutal and violent characters, especially when the brutality is accompanied by a not very strong mind; they cannot expect that such natures will be unaffected by it."—Theodore Roosevelt, upon being shot
It seems it would be appropriate to take a look at the effects of violent political rhetoric and propaganda in other countries as well. There is a different set of historical baggage in each case, but we as Americans are not so unique for that to be irrelevant.
There are many many cases of political violence in other gun-filled countries that also follow demonization of public figures.
Pretending that people here have a different ability to be influenced, especially the mentally disturbed, simply because we don't consider ourselves to be a third-world nation appears to me to be a sort if willful blindness to how humans everywhere react and overreact.
Our current wave of demonization by constant propaganda has recent precedents all over the world, I'm aware of none that have ended prettily.
Most all of us are grownups and can handle extreme argument, but clearly some people are not, and obviously I'm not just talking about Jared Loughner.
To see that, all you have to do is attend almost any family gathering, where once-loving relationships have been completely lost because of the overheated right-left culture war. If real family relationships are being lost to this kind of political debate, if someone on TV can reach into your living room and break up your family without knowing anything about you or even knowing that you exist, that tells us that this mechanized mass-media rhetoric has been almost unimaginably successful at dehumanizing whole classes of people."—Matt Taibbi
The point of Sheriff Dupnik's criticism, as I understood it, was that hatred and vitriol expressed by prominent people has a danger of inciting mentally ill people to violence.
Whether it's Loughner; Shelly Shannon and Scott Roeder; Michael Griffin; Eric Rudolph; Richard Poplawski; Gordon Kahl; Joseph Stack; Tharin Gartrell, Nathan Johnson and Shawn Adolf; Charles Polk; Willie & Cecilia Lampley; Joseph Bailie & Ellis Hurst; Peter Langan; Troy Spain; Todd Vanbiber; Bradley Glover; Jack Grebe Jr & Johnnie Wise; James Kopp; Buford Furow; Benjamin Nathaniel Smith; Richard Baumhammer; Sean Gillespie; Wade and Christopher Lay; Daniel Cowart & Paul Schlesselman; Keith Luke; Joshua Cartwright; James Von Brunn; Shawna Forde; or Dennis and Daniel Mahon, his point stands.
Their politics usually don't line up perfectly with mainstream parties, but they are all fairly recent examples of disturbed individuals who killed specific people or members of groups that had been relentlessly attacked by media figures. Conservatives can and should be defensive about this: not because the shooters were Republicans, but because it is conservative leaders calling for violence.
There are crazy people in this country and prominent people have no excuse not to expect that incendiary speech will motivate some of them. Lewis and Giffords were right when they called it "playing with fire," and Dupnik is right to call for more responsible speech.
It's interesting to note the recent comments by Sam Kashner about Lee Harvey Oswald:
…regardless of where he was on the political spectrum, he was more mentally ill than politically adept. Still, it was that over-heated climate of hate that kind of helped hatch his crazy plan.
Byron Williams' jailhouse interviews are frightening for this very reason.

- quadcast posted this
I have received a few questions about how I go about making the podcast, so I decided to write up a quick post for you all.
I use this for audio chat between guests and me. It is the best bet because it's free and multiplatform.
Price: Free
This is the best way to record audio on Mac OS X. This allows me to record both my audio and the guests audio without running a live mixer.
Price: $32.00 USD
While I have used Audacity and Garageband in the past, this is the only way I can slog through two and half hour episodes. It is fast and easy, so I didn't mind spending the money.
Price: $59.99
Blue mics are absolutely wonderful to use for podcasting. I have used them exclusively for years. This one is good for recording solo.
Price: $39.99
If you're going to record, you're going to need a quiet computer. I can't even tell audibly when it is turned on. I also upgraded it to 16 GB of RAM. You should probably have at least 8 GB.
Price: $1,159.97

CLEVELAND -- The Memphis Grizzlies are doing just fine with their best player sidelined by an injury.
Friday night's 103-92 win over Cleveland was the Grizzlies' third straight victory without leading scorer Zach Randolph, who is out with a sprained left ankle.
Marc Gasol scored 22 points and the Grizzlies held off a late run to win for the 11th time in 12 games.
The past three games, which also include victories over Orlando and Portland, have been particularly impressive since Randolph, who averages 15.7 points and 11.6 rebounds, has been unavailable.
"We've got a lot of options, even without Zach," Gasol said. "Everyone is playing well."
Memphis strengthened its hold on the fourth spot in the Western Conference playoff race and is 12-4 since trading star forward Rudy Gay to Toronto on Jan. 30.
The Grizzlies' previous victory in Cleveland came on Nov. 29, 2003, LeBron James' rookie season with the Cavaliers. Mike Conley, who helped Ohio State reach the Final Four in 2007, added 17 points for the Grizzlies and was happy to get his first pro win in Ohio.
"It's very special to finally win here because it's always tough to play in this building," he said. "For us to win and me to play this well in front of so many fans who watched me play in college, it's really great."
Kyrie Irving, who missed Cleveland's morning shootaround with flu-like symptoms, scored a team-high 24 points, but the Cavaliers were outscored 32-18 in the third quarter after leading 51-48 at halftime.
"That third quarter just killed us," he said. "If we could avoid third quarter holes like that we could get a lot more wins."
Asked why the Cavaliers have struggled in the third quarter, coach Byron Scott said. "I have no idea, but we have to figure out a way to regain that focus when we come back out. For some reason we're somewhere else when we come out (after halftime)."
Jerryd Bayless scored 17 points and Grizzlies pulled away after the Cavaliers cut the lead to 88-84 with 5:21 to play. Conley also had 11 assists while Bayless scored 11 points in the fourth quarter.
Gasol and Ed Davis combined for 18 points in the third quarter to help the Grizzlies build a double-figure lead. Gasol scored 10 in the period while Davis, starting for Randolph, added eight. Memphis took a 72-61 lead with 4:22 remaining and still led 80-69 after three quarters.
"We started attacking the basket better," Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins said. "In the second half, we got inside and we got to the basket. It was pretty simple."
Irving re-entered the game with 6:31 remaining in the fourth quarter and scored a minute later on a left-handed drive to the basket, cutting the lead to 88-84. Bayless hit a 3-pointer while Conley scored on a drive and added a jumper to push the lead to 95-86.
Irving, the Cavaliers' All-Star point guard, was listed as doubtful Friday morning. He said he began filling ill Thursday night, but felt better after going to the doctor and resting most of Friday.
Irving arrived at the arena about 90 minutes before game time and said he was going to play. He was 11 of 21 from the field and had three assists in 36 minutes.
Irving was recently held out of three games to rest a hyperextended right knee. He said following Wednesday's win over Utah that the injury was still bothering him.
Scott said Thursday he would consider shutting down Irving again, rather than risk him making it worse. Irving said before Friday's game his knee was fine and he wasn't getting shut down.
Dion Waiters, who usually starts in the backcourt with Irving, returned after missing two games with the flu that has been affecting the Cavaliers' players and coaches. Waiters scored three points and missed all four shots in 21 minutes.
Cavaliers forward Alonzo Gee ended the first quarter by hitting a 65-foot shot at the buzzer. Gee scored 12 points while C.J. Miles had 13.
Cleveland's Marreese Speights sustained a laceration to his right elbow late in the game.
Notes: Former Portland C Greg Oden, who hasn't played in the NBA since 2009, attended the game. The Cavaliers are one of several teams exploring the possibility of signing the No. 1 overall pick in 2007 whose NBA career has been cut short by injuries. Oden has undergone three microfracture knee surgeries -- two on his left knee. It appears unlikely he will sign with a team until the summer. Oden and Conley were teammates at Ohio State. ... Hollins said there's no timetable for the return of Randolph, the league's third-leading rebounder, averaging 11.6. Randolph hasn't played since March 3 against Orlando. ... F Darrell Arthur missed his second straight game with neck and back soreness. He isn't travelling with the team. ... Cavaliers G Daniel Gibson was available to play after missing Wednesday's game with flu, but saw no action.
It was Canada's night at the NBA Draft as four players from north of the border were selected.

He Knows I'm Jailbait [Se7en] |2|I already kind of wanna rename this story. It doesn't say enough about it... Okay, it does, but thats besides the point. Now go read!!! Rate/Msg! &heart ash
Skyler's POV
I arrived right on time at my meeting with Mike and Brokencyde. They were waiting paitiently for me in the studio, looking nonchalant from the outside of the room.
But once I opened the door, I found fucking hell.
This guy with black and red hair was spinning in a rolling chair. The blonde guy- the only one with facial hair- was wrestling with a bigger guy. Then there was a hot, streak-haired guy was sitting casually on the couch.
Mikewas nowhere to be seen. I assumed this was Brokencyde.
I closed the door behind me and knocked on the wall. All of the guys looked at me.
"Hey, you're Brokencyde, right?" I asked, hoping none of them would try to kick my ass.
The guy on the rolling chair smirked. "Hell yeah." He winked. "I'm Antz."
The blonde guy with facial hair smiled. "Mikl."
Bigger guy: "Phat J, bitch." He did a weird gangster dance.
I twitched.
The last guy checked me out, then smirked evilly. "Hey, baby, I'm Seven with a 7." He winked.
I scratched my head and ruffled my hair. "Do you guys know where Mike is?"
"Nope," Mikl said. "Don't know, don't care."
Phat J looked at me again. "Who areyou anyway?"
I rolled my eyes. "I'm Skyler. I'm gonna be working with you guys on your full-length."
Seven continued staring at me. "We need a better name for this bitch..."
I gaped. "Bitch?"
Antz's eyes went wide and he shook his head furiously. "Don't take it personally, that's mostly how we talk to people." I blinked. "It's a crunk thing."
I made an O with my mouth.
"Skizz," said Seven. I turned sharply to face him. He smirked. "And you respond to it too. Fuck Skyler, Skizz it is."
I rolled my eyes and leaned against the wall while I looked down at myself. It was then I realized how I was dressed- baggy jeans, a tight black cami with a slutty lace bra under it, and converse.
I was begging to be a victim of sexual harassment.
As I stood there thinking about how fucked I was, the guys continued on doing whatever it was they were before.
Except for Seven.
He got up off the couch and stood infront of me, leaving a few inches for me to breathe. He was so close I could feel his breath on my face. And at that moment, I actually wanted him. He was just... so sexy that I could barely control myself. But I did.
"So Skizz... What brings a sexy bitch like you into our world?"
I sighed. "I don't even fucking know."
"Hey," he took his hand and put it on my waist, then slid it around to my back. He slowly slipped his hand down to the spot he wanted- grabbing my firm ass. "Don't worry about it. We got you covered here." He leaned in closer. "Once your with us, you're ruling the fucking streets."
He quickly checked if anyone was looking, then leaned in to kiss me fiercly. My eyes went wide in shock, but then closed easily when I started kissing back. He nibbled on my bottom lip to ask for entrance, and I gave it to him.
I felt like such a slut- I was supposed to be working with them on music, not making their screamer hard. Why the hell couldn't Mike show up and save my ass already?!
I didn't really want him to save me, though. Seven was good at making me feel like I was his whore or his bitch or something.
That is a disturbing feeling.
How the hell could I just come out and tell him,
"I'm seventeen."
I pulled back abruptly when I said that out loud. His eyes went wider than I'd ever seen anyone's go before.
"...Jailbait..?" he asked, taking his hands off me just as abruptly as I'd stopped making out with him.
I looked down guiltily. "Yeah." Then I pointed blame on him. "You're supposed to be recording for your fucking record anyway, not making out with me!"
Seven glared. "Fuck you, hoe."
The door opened and everyone stopped what they were doing once again.
"Oh, hello everyone. I see you've met Skyler," said the man I assumed was Mike.
"It's Skizz," Antz pointed out. Seven shot him a thankful smile, like, I really don't wanna talk about her, so thanks for talking for me.
Mike smiled at me. "Hi, Skizz, I'm Mike." He held out his hand and I shook it.
"Hello, Mike. Thank you so much for letting me work with you on this album. You have no idea how much I want to be here right now."
Not as much, now that Se7en already won't fucking talk to me. That's fer fuckin sure.

Does it pay to push your kids into studying law or medicine?
We're asking this because a Government education advisor has attacked ethnic minority parents for pushing their children into law and medicine. Professor Les Ebdon has criticised parents who do this - he says a lot of students are dropping out of Uni because they're being forced into doing highly pressurised courses which their heart isn't into. He also says many school leavers miss out on a university education all together because they're not allowed to do what they really want to do.
What do you think about this? Does it still happen? Do Asian parents push their children to study to become doctors or lawyers no matter what the children want? Are you someone who wanted to be an actress or a hairdresser only to be told by your parent they won't let you?
Who know best when it comes to deciding what to study, parents or the kids themselves?
Are you a parent who thinks he knows what's best, even if it means telling your children to study something they don't want to?
Did you do what your parents told you and are now secretly glad you did? Or will you always wonder whether you could have made it as an actress, singer or Lion tamer?
And later in the show - Nihal will be speaking to the co founder of a new music label Dharmam Sewa Records.

Mizuno Elixir 6 Shoe Review
Hello World, this will be my first official product review for the new blog! What better product to review than the shoes I am currently running in. There is a very satisfying and blossoming relationship developing between myself and the Elixir 6. They have been very good to me so far; no injuries or major issues to side-line me from what I love to do.
The Mizuno Wave Elixir is a great light-stability, light-weight road shoe that offers a variety of bennies. I'm currently enjoying this shoe on anything from 20 mile runs in the mushy snow of Bend, OR to short fast interval workouts on the local track.
The Elixir 6 offers a light, snappy feel at only 9.5 ounces for men and 7.9 ounces for the ladies. It's light enough to feel fast in it but not so light to second guess using as a day-to-day trainer. With colors like 'surf the web' and 'lime punch' —what's not to love!
I will admit that the first thing I noticed when I tried the shoe on was the firm heel. You definitely feel the support of the dual wave plate in the heel of this shoe. Mizuno uses a patented wave plate technology in the midsole, inspired by nature; it really helps to dampen the shock of each footfall. It guides your foot through the foot strike in the most efficient motion possible.
For those who love the super smooth effortless transition from heel to forefoot, the neutral Mizuno Wave Rider may be a better option, but for those who don't mind sacrificing some of that natural roll for a more stable supportive ride; you can surf the web with your lime punch in hand any day of the week!
The Mizuno Elixir also dons their custom Dynamotion Fit. This encompasses a variety of technologies involved in the construction of the upper (definition of upper: every part of the shoe above the sole–heel counter, toe box, tongue, and laces) to create an effortless and seamless foot roll. It does a great job forming to your foot with no bunch points or hot spots noticeable to me.
The new upper of the Elixir 6 is perhaps the biggest change with this version. We see this in its new independent lateral panels, flex eyelet shoestring system, and strategically placed hold areas for an improved fit. I have always thought that the Mizuno upper is the best upper in the business and the Elixir 6 does not disappoint. It is so form fitting that you hardly feel it on your foot. Big time plus for Mizuno!
Points of interest jargon: lightweight, form-fitting upper, slightly roomy forefoot, firmer heel, low-profile heel wrap, 22mm heel to 10 mm forefoot equals a 12mm "delta" drop.
Side Note: From my experience Mizuno shoes run very true to size. I'm a 12 in most brands, 11.5 in both Asics and New Balance, but a 12 for all the other major players including Mizuno.
I'm 212 miles deep into my pair (shown above) and they are holding up swimmingly. I love the latest movement away from white running shoes by Mizuno. Colored shoes shouldn't just be for the trails, especially if you live in a climate where your bright white shoes can get dirty quickly. The Mizuno colors keep your feet looking flashy for more than just your first few jaunts.

It may be time to make the split from your old trainers and start something new with the Mizuno Elixir 6!

Great post. I bought a pair yesturday, and after switching from the Mizuno Nirvana, the lightweight upper is what sold me. The heel-toe yes isnt as smooth, but its a great trade for the light weight of them. Plus they look amazing and run like a dream. I went for a short 3 miler yesterday and its like I floated the whole time.

How many miles roughly should a pair of Elixir 6′s get?
- 5 Greg { 07.18.11 at 7:33 am }
Hi. I have been using these shoes (Size 12.5) for the last 4 months and think they are great. However, I had to have special inserts made to correct a few minor issues and now notice that the front of my foot feels tight. Not necessarily against the tip of the shoe but at the sides. Do you think moving to a size 13 would alleviate this?

Yes, After running in the Wave Nirvana I will never go back to a heavy shoe again. I have been running in the Elixr's now for 3 years and usually get high mileage out of them 500 miles is not to many on this shoe, they have been the most reliable shoe I have had. For Half's or shorter races I use the Mizuno Musha's another winner!

Hi Chase,
A question. I'm more of a neutral runner, left foot supinating a bit more than the right one. So far, I've run in Rider 12, 13, and Ronin 3. I'm looking for something in the between of Rider and Ronin, in particular more cushioning than Ronin. Do you think Elixir is good for me? Thanks.
- 9 Ravi { 03.01.12 at 12:19 pm }
Its been a year since you wrote this post. What has been your experience with this show so far? I went ahead and ordered one today. I usually run with Saucony, but decided to switch to this Mizuno model after reading reviews from you and others. Do you still use this model?
- 10 Phuc { 03.03.12 at 8:32 am }
A note for those who just stumble on this post. I ordered a pair of Mizuno WE 6. Here are my first impressions. Size-wise, they are similar to Ronin 3, roomy in the toebox, and snuggly fit the rest of the foot. Use the 'shoe fit' tool on runningwarehouse website if you need help. The upper material is very similar to Wave Rider 12, very supple and comfortable, much better than that of WR13, which is too stiff IMO.
I'll update it later once I take them for a run. Hope this helps.
- 13 Ravi { 03.05.12 at 9:36 am }
Hi Phuc – I just ordered a Mizuno WE6. Did you get a chance to try them? What are your impressions? Thanks.
- 14 Phuc { 03.05.12 at 10:32 pm }
Hi Ravi,
Not yet. Hopefully in the next few days. I plan to test it out on the treadmill a few times before going outside. Although Theo on the runningshoeguru website advises me against the WE6 because I'm more an underpronated runner rather than over-. What's your pronation type? Update me if you have a chance. Thanks.

Prayer for Missions
God of truth and love: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Hear our prayer for those who do not know You. That they may come to a saving knowledge of the truth, and that Your Name may be praised among all peoples of the world. Sustain, inspire, and enlighten Your servants who bring them the Gospel. Bring fresh vigor to wavering faith; sustain our faith when it is still fragile. Continually renew missionary zeal in ourselves and in the Church, and raise up new missionaries who will follow You to the ends of the world. Make us witnesses to Your goodness full of love, full of strength, and full of faith for Your glory and the salvation of the entire world. Through the prayers of all the missionary saints, Have mercy on us and save us. Amen.

Selling Stock
An initial public offering, or IPO, is the first sale of stock by a company to the public. A company can raise money by issuing either debt or equity. If the company has never issued equity to the public, it's known as an IPO.
Companies fall into two broad categories: private and public.
A privately held company has fewer shareholders and its owners don't have to disclose much information about the company. Anybody can go out and incorporate a company: just put in some money, file the right legal documents and follow the reporting rules of your jurisdiction. Most small businesses are privately held. But large companies can be private too. Did you know that IKEA, Domino's Pizza and Hallmark Cards are all privately held?
|Watch: Initial Public Offering (IPO)
Public companies have thousands of shareholders and are subject to strict rules and regulations. They must have a board of directors and they must report financial information every quarter. In the United States, public companies report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In other countries, public companies are overseen by governing bodies similar to the SEC. From an investor's standpoint, the most exciting thing about a public company is that the stock is traded in the open market, like any other commodity. If you have the cash, you can invest. The CEO could hate your guts, but there's nothing he or she could do to stop you from buying stock.
Going public raises cash, and usually a lot of it. Being publicly traded also opens many financial doors:
- Because of the increased scrutiny, public companies can usually get better rates when they issue debt.
- As long as there is market demand, a public company can always issue more stock. Thus, mergers and acquisitions are easier to do because stock can be issued as part of the deal.
- Trading in the open markets means liquidity. This makes it possible to implement things like employee stock ownership plans, which help to attract top talent.
Being on a major stock exchange carries a considerable amount of prestige. In the past, only private companies with strong fundamentals could qualify for an IPO and it wasn't easy to get listed.
The internet boom changed all this. Firms no longer needed strong financials and a solid history to go public. Instead, IPOs were done by smaller startups seeking to expand their businesses. There's nothing wrong with wanting to expand, but most of these firms had never made a profit and didn't plan on being profitable any time soon. Founded on venture capital funding, they spent like Texans trying to generate enough excitement to make it to the market before burning through all their cash. In cases like this, companies might be suspected of doing an IPO just to make the founders rich. This is known as an exit strategy, implying that there's no desire to stick around and create value for shareholders. The IPO then becomes the end of the road rather than the beginning.
How can this happen? Remember: an IPO is just selling stock. It's all about the sales job. If you can convince people to buy stock in your company, you can raise a lot of money.

Funny Demotivational Posters
A motivational poster is a type of poster commonly designed for use in schools and offices. Motivational posters generally use a three-part template consisting of
- A photograph in a wide black border
- A title in large text
- A description in smaller text beneath the title
This kind of poster has been repeatedly parodied, and parodical "demotivational posters" have become an Internet meme.

Today I'm using the Yippee-Skippee set again to show you that life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful!
I think these little critters are funny! They go with the card's sentiment well because they aren't really any animal, but they're still cute. It sounds like my life. Sometimes you can't tell exactly what it's supposed to be, but you just go with it! My stamper gals were calling them moose-cow-monkeys. One gal even made hers into a pig. (It was adorable!) The idea came from a card I saw by Lynn Pratt. I'm pretty sure that her animals were moose, though.
I used the woodgrain embossing folder, the heart framelits, and punches. The critters' bodies were made with the owl punch.
Here is the other version of that I card that I used for my husband's Valentine card.
You can check out all Stampin' Up! items, including this week's weekly specials and the new items added to the clearance rack in my online store.
Have a great day!

When even a key architect of Obamacare says the law's implementation will resemble a "train wreck," it is clear that its biggest remaining supporters need to finally level with the American people about what's in store — starting with President Barack Obama.
The president must step into the breach and explain to the public that skyrocketing premiums and a raft of new taxes, penalties and fees are coming their way.
It may not be easy, but the president has a responsibility to explain as frankly as possible what this law will mean — before its major components take effect. He could start by delivering a major address, just as he did to push the law's passage, laying out exactly what Americans can expect. He should also instruct his Cabinet secretaries to explain what this could mean as well. Families and businesses across America need time to prepare — and that means they need to know the facts.
Here are just a few we already know:
For many families and individuals, especially younger Americans, the law will lead to increased health insurance premiums. These have already gone up $2,370 per family since Obama took office, not down by $2,500 as he promised. And this is before most of Obamacare's most costly mandates have even taken effect.
For many business owners, Obamacare will mean a crushing tower of red tape, demonstrated by the nearly 20,000 pages of regulations already issued. Employers have already planned layoffs due to uncertainty surrounding this law, according to the Federal Reserve. Obamacare could result in up to 800,000 fewer jobs, according to some estimates.

Tuesday's dedication of the Downtown Plaza at Sixth Street and Central Avenue moved the focus of community attention back to where the town was established in 1878 by the Central Pacific Railroad.
The corner of Sixth Street and Central Avenue was the crossroads of the new town where two railroad lines connected. Across one set of tracks in the switching yard was the railroad depot, and Tracy's first businesses, housed in woodframe buildings, lined unpaved Sixth Street on both sides of Central Avenue.
At the corner on the northeast corner of Sixth and Central, where Tuesday's dedication ceremonies were held, was the original Tracy Hotel, and across Central Avenue at the other corner was Philip Fabian's general store.
Central Avenue, which dead-ended at the Front-and-Central corner, had only scattered buildings, homes and churches extending as far north as "the county road' — later renamed 11th Street.
As Mayor Brent Ives mentioned Tuesday during his dedication talk, the dedication ceremony and tonight's Cinco de Mayo fiesta in the new plaza aren't the first community events held on the corner.
In October 1910, three months after the city of Tracy was incorporated, Tracy staged a street fair on Sixth Street, extending east from Central Avenue.
From reports in the Tracy Press, the fair was a major success, attracting a large number of townspeople. Tracy's population then was just about an even 1,000.
The accompanying photo shows a view of the street fair, looking east from Central. It was obviously a lively event, judging from the theater tent in the photo at right that featured "Thelma, the most perfect formed woman in the world!"
In downtown Tracy, no less.
Dropping a 'U-y'
And we can't forget that until the 1970s, Central Avenue dead-ended at Sixth Street. That's where local youths "dropped a U-y" — making a U-turn — while "taking the drag."
Local insurance broker John Frerichs was a member of the Clutch Burners auto club in the late 1950s, when making that U-turn was part of the cruising ritual of the era.
After heading north on Central, the guys (and some girls) turned east on 11th Street and made it to Tracy's Drive In, next to where Ralph's Club is now. From there, they went west on 11th to check out the A&W Rootbeer stand and then made a turn around a service station at the southeast corner of 11th and Tracy Boulevard, heading east back to Central.
When not taking the drag, the car guys went on poker runs, gathered for a beer or two and even did some drag racing, mostly on MacArthur Drive from Grant Line Road north to Delta Avenue.
The club died in the 1960s, but John and five friends brought it back to life in 1980, this time concentrating on hot rods and restored cars and trucks. Those friends were Allen Cossey, Larry McDonald, Tom Buettner, Gary Hyman and Russ Vital.
The annual car show was inaugurated in 1991. John is no longer a Clutch Burner, but other club members are staging the modern-day version of the car show, "A Picnic in the Park," this Saturday in Dr. Powers Park.
Charred memories
Flames that destroyed a home April 22 at the San Joaquin River Club southeast of Tracy carried some childhood memories of a well-known Tracyite with them.
That well-known Tracyite is Mayor Brent Ives. It was his boyhood home that burned to the ground, the home where he lived while attending New Jerusalem School and later Tracy High School.
After the fire, Brent and wife Lynda drove out to the River Club to view what was left of the house, which residents believe was vacant when fire struck. It was a sad sight for them.
Ashes, charred rubble and a brick chimney were all that remained. Brent's mother, the late Betty Ives, would have been devastated by the loss of her longtime home.
Hazardous hips
There seems to be an epidemic of fractured hips these days. John Serpa, the retired Tracy police captain long active in veterans affairs, fell at home and underwent surgery.
John is now a patient at Tracy Convalescent hospital. His roommate is B.R. Costa, a retired dairyman, who also broke a hip but escaped surgery.
And, finally, my brother Tom broke his right hip last week at home, underwent surgery and is back home after spending a few days in Sutter Tracy Community Hospital.
By the way, John Serpa told me that because of the hip injury, he will be unable to install officers of Tracy VFW Post and Auxiliary later this month. This will be the first time since 1952 he has been unable to officiate.

Hi Sriharshan,
Welcome to muziboo. This song is a great start. You have sung it very well. In a few places you sound a bit flat, I felt you can modulate your voice more – for example in the line Meraa jeena mera marnaa inhi palkoan ke ….'. Overall you are sounding great, these are finer details which can embellish your singing further in my humble opinion. Look forward to more songs from you.

Judy, Judy, Judy
Judy, Judy, Judy.
Contrary to popular opinion, Cary Grant may never have coined the above phrase, but no other will do when talking about Judy Garland. My Grandpappy was a Sherrif for the L.A.P.D back in the '50s and had many a colorful tale about the woman … but … no matter her private life or flaws, we are ALL flawed. And few possess Judy's inimitable talent. This clip from George Cukor's A Star is Born, "The Man That Got Away", as well-known as it is, never ceases to jerk my tears. From a twelve year old with the voice of an angel, in whose path like nothing but possibility, by 1954 she'd become something of a fallen idol about to reclaim her throne as entertainer extraordinaire in this four minute stretch of celluloid.
But was it worth the price?

New "Smart" Fareboxes in Service on Monday, February 24th!
Topeka Metro's new "Smart" Odyssey fareboxes will be in service on all fixed route buses on Monday, February 24th. These new fareboxes allow more flexibility for our passengers and will eventually allow for more electronic payment options and enhanced reporting of ridership. Cost of fare has not changed.
31-Day Pass
Topeka Metro's current monthly passes that are valid from the first day of the month until the last day of the month will be discontinued. Instead, we will offer a 31-Day Pass. The 31-day time period begins the first time the pass is used on a fixed route bus. The passenger will insert the pass into the card slot to initialize the pass. The date of first use and the expiration date will be printed on the back of the pass. Once initialized, the pass can then be swiped through the card reader on future trips.
10-Ride Card
This card replaces the 10-ride paper ticket strips. The passenger will insert the card into the farebox card slot for payment. The ride will be deducted and printed on the back of the card.
Passengers will be allowed to continue using the old paper tickets until December 31, 2014 or they may exchange full ticket strips at Quincy Street Station for the new 10-ride cards.
Cash Fare
The new fareboxes will accept any U.S. coin (including dollar coins), $1, $5, $10 and $20 bills. Operators do NOT make change; however, the new fareboxes will offer a "change card" for your convenience. The passenger may use the change card toward future bus fares. Change cards are not redeemable for cash.
Upon boarding, the passenger should let the driver know if a transfer is needed. A transfer card will be printed with the date and time issued and expiration. Transfers are good for 90 minutes from the time issued.
Passengers are encouraged to attend one of two open houses to learn about and see a demonstration of the new fareboxes. Both open houses will be held at Quincy Street Station at the following times:
Tuesday, February 18th – 3:00pm to 5:00pm
Wednesday, February 19th – 7:00am to 10:00am

"Of course children suffer from divorces. I remember talking to Sean when Mel and I were divorced. Children think, 'Perhaps he didn't love me very much, my father, if he could go away'. That's the way I felt when my father left. So, you become very insecure about affection and terribly grateful for it. You have enormous desire to give it and receive it. Having miscarriages is heart-rending, but so is divorce. It's probably one of the worst experiences a human being can go through. I tried desperately to avoid it for my two sons' sake but I just couldn't. Could not manage that. I hung on to both marriages very hard, as long as I could, for the childrens' sake and out of respect for marriage. You always hope that if you love somebody enough everything will be all right — but it isn't always so. I always wanted lots of babies — that's been a conducting theme in my life. Even when I was little what I wanted most in the world was to have a child. That was always the real me."
"People always ask me if I'm not bored just being a wife and a mother. I'm not - not at all… I think you need time to live, to invest in the things you care for the most. For me, that's raising my boys. Children grow up by themselves, of course, but they do need to be given love. That they can't do by themselves." Audrey Hepburn.

Forrester's digital marketing prediction sparks hot debate
A report from global research firm Forrester calling for "digital marketing" to lose its prefix and become just "marketing" in 2013 has sparked a debate between marketers who agree with the forecast and those that believe digital should continue be treated as a separate discipline.
Forrester's "Trends for the B2C CMO to watch in 2013" report warns new digital disruptors will threaten all businesses– such as YouTube challenging broadcasters and bank platforms competing with services such as Square – if marketers do not expand the utility and value of the experience their brands deliver.
The report suggests marketing budget should be repurposed out of channel silos and into new cross-platform divisions organised around consumer segments, with experts on the relevant media, channels and devices sitting within the new product or services verticals.
Underpinning the call is its forecast digital budgets will become 20 per cent of total marketing budgets in 2013, accounting for $50bn (£31bn) worldwide.
Corinne Munchbach, Forrester's CMO and market leadership professionals analyst and author of the report told Marketing Week: "Consumers switch from instore, to online, to mobile - sometimes all at once. Having separate budgets for each is counter intuitive to what customers are actually experiencing. Logical brands will be able to join all this together in a functional way to deliver the experiences customers expect from them."
Munchbach says P&G in the US is an example of a B2C company breaking down channel silos to streamline media costs and show the value across brands – part of the reason its Dawn washing up liquid brand and Olay skincare brand appear together in marketing, which would not have happened before, she suggests.
Shaun Gregory, Telefonica's global advertising director, says other major brands need to organise themselves in this way going forward.
"Ultimately you have to push your own personal specialisms to one side and think of your consumer – when did you last hear a consumer talking about 'digital?', they just see it as a multitude of screens. The [marketing] industry needs to catch up with consumers' behaviour – even though there may be push back from talent and [specialist] agencies, " he adds.
Tess Alps, CEO of television marketing body Thinkbox, agrees the idea of "digital" acting as a lone silo away from marketing disciplines is outdated and that integration is an "absolute must".
She adds: "The idea that everything internet and mobile is one discipline that sits in a silo is crazy. TV is entirely digital, newspapers have digital editions but the technology is pretty invisible to the actual viewer. It's like having a silo called 'electricity' or 'paper and ink'."
Jonathan Bass, managing director of mobile marketing agency Incentivated and deputy chairman of the Direct Marketing Association's mobile marketing council, disagrees with the proposition that the majority of brands will truly integrate digital across marketing this year, due to a lack of understanding at the top of organisations.
He adds: "From an agency point if view, if digital is not understood from a board level you are banging your head against the wall. At companies like Tesco and M&S digital is discussed at board level but we are a long way from this understanding being [common place] at the top – it's hugely better in the States. In the UK there's nowhere for a CMO or CEO to go to learn about digital marketing."
On the other hand, Charles Allen, head of marketing at Arsenal FC, questions whether it is necessary for every brand to fully integrate digital into every element of the business as Forrester suggests.
He adds: "Digital has perhaps had a disproportionate amount of air time because it's flavour of the month and cool. It's unhelpful to look at it from a start point of 'we need a digital strategy' and then looking at why. You have to first ask the question whether consumers really want you to show up in every area their digital world and [are you actually one of those brands where] will they invite you in?"
The idea that "digital marketing" accounts for spend on search, social, mobile, display and many other areas of the spectrum is confusingly catch-all and does not really reflect the way digital has become an integral part of almost every marketing campaign.
Perhaps if we stopped referring to all these specialisms as one conglomerate discipline, marketers would be keener to reorganise their teams in the way Forrester suggests – focusing on the consumer benefits of each individual element rather than placing "digital" as we know it on a pedestal apart from the rest of the marketing sphere.
Readers' comments (11)
I think it makes sense to drop the digital. When marketing to customers, there needs to be one voice from the organization regardless of the media that it is delivered on. Marketing needs to be unified.
I know this won't happen in 2013 in the US. Give it to 2030 and maybe the corporate silos will yield, but that may be pushing it.
It doesn't make any sense yet to drop the "digital" term as the two worlds and yes it's two different worlds are not enough connected and independent from each other.
Then when we could speak of marketing strategy or asking someone if he knew about marketing (without giving any more information) the next step for this person would be to ask if it's on the digital side or not. Marketers people and most of the time clients don't understand anything about marketing unless a specialist has given then an explanation about the benefits this would create.
We would be able to remove the digital term when the whole online side would be 50% of the total expenditure thus making marketing with both offline and online parts the normal way to talk. As of today, as it's barely overcome the tiny 15%, it doesn't make any sense and will create troubles if we don't make a clear separation.
The solution to this is not to make people confuse and blurry about the terms but to create integrated campaign, flipping from offline to online and online to offline.
Digital *spend* may be only 15% (maybe for your company anyway - it's a lot higher at ours) but that doesn't mean that the efforts only make up 15% of the results.
Digital activity is usually substantially cheaper than traditional offline activity, such as Direct mail, and can have a much higher response rate as that is where consumers are moving to.
I doubt the term 'Digital' will be dropped for a while but as all companies should be striving towards fully integrated campaigning, there is no reason why it shouldn't be dropped in the future.
And yes... I work in Digital (Client side!)
'Marketing' is the umbrella term for every activity (including digital) which marketers employ to connect with consumers and achieve marketing objectives.
'Digital Marketing' is defined as 'achieving marketing objectives through applying digital technologies'.
It mystifies me why anyone would think 'Digital Marketing' and 'Marketing' is the same thing - it is not and never will be.
We have not dropped terms like "print" or "broadcast" from our terminology, so since digital is relatively new I do not see that term being dropped any time soon. Also there is a difference in how an organization is structured, like an agency, vs. how you market to consumers. I might work on the digital team while a peer works on the print team but we market to the same consumer an that should not be siloed.
It is not much different in the States as boards and upper management doesn't always get and don't care to understand the concepts. I have worked with heads of multi-million and billion dollar companies that think PowerPoint is high-end graphics software and cannot attend a simple webinar without help. With no interest in understanding basic technologies, how can a company even know what staff it needs to hire to stay relevant. More often they are at the mercy of sales people. This is a technologically fluid world.
Digital is like the "Turbo" of the 80's and added to nearly everything regardless of merit. Digital is the base format structure for almost every deliverable today. Creative tools are becoming interconnected so that once elements are in digital formats, the end format, whether web, print or Blu-ray/DVD, with skill, time and effort are becoming just an output selection. I cannot see the word Digital lasting as new technologies needing description take over such as 4K and 8K Ultra HD. The big discussion is going to be bandwidth and compression. And we thought digital was a tough idea to explain.
The goal of digital marketing is ultimately marketing and so digital is a method than the objective.
In a way digital is just another channel and so becomes an integrated part of marketing.
However the differentiation comes in due to the technology platform over which digital rides which is complex and sophisticated, two way in interaction, participatory and engaging. This distinction places digital in a category that needs expertise and methodology different from other channels.
This is soon becoming the past. Today many marketing and brand managers have caught up with the digital movement and have detailed understanding and insights in the digital marketing. This understanding and expertise brings digital back into the realm of an overall marketing plan and places it on par with other channels.
Digital will therefore be another channel for marketers and brand managers will retain its nomenclature like print marketing, direct marketing, outdoor marketing, event marketing and television marketing in their plans and execution.
Given the role that digital places post the awareness stage and its enduring presence in the customer engagement life-cycle, digital will move into the core of marketing strategy and all other channels will direct into the digital core. This integration is already happening in some industries but needs evolution of thought in some others.
At UnifiedM, we see digital forming the central core of marketing strategy and campaigns being created with a digital mindset and then being extended and adapted to other real-world channels which point to this digital core.
This will mark a significant shift in thinking, planning and creative for marketing and brand managers as well as for agencies.
This also makes digital more central in marketing than it has been so far and in a way implies that digital marketing is main-stream marketing in operation and outcomes.
Forrester's B2C Trends 2013 report sparks debate but isn't moving away from channel silos just common sense? http://tinyurl.com/bfddh3b
Is there a term called digitaling? So it is still marketing and it is only a matter of time all marketers will develop digital skills and views. Marketing is an umbrella term as commenter Alliso Brolls explaied. On the other hand to be honest what people call digital marketing lately is only diital advertising which has not yet covered all aspects of marketing. Most marketers know that marketing is an innovative and complex process. Thats why we have a term called called Integrated Marketing Communications either it is pop, guerilla, atl, btl or digital it is not independent or self-centric it should be a part of a bigger plan.
The Perfect Communication Strategy 2013
My name is Hayley Irwin and I am currently a 4th year on a Fashion and Textile Management course at Nottingham Trent.
I am putting together a New Communications strategy for 2013 and its relevance in the marketing climate for my dissertation.
During my placement year at Wrangler Europe EMEA, I identified a distinct lack of credibility being given to traditional communication strategy due to the inability for the PR channel to prove a clear return on investment or return on relationship.
I will therefore look to create a new communications strategy that reflects the current marketing environment and provides measurable outcomes.
To help me prove or disprove my aims and objectives, I would like to set up a live debate on skype would any of you be interested as i have cited this debate in my dissertation?
Here are a few questions to set this discussion off:
1) What is your opinion on Traditional B2C communication?
2) What is your opinion on Digital B2C communication
3) How do you think digital has changed traditional B2C communication?
4) What are the Benefits (Short and Long term) for retailers who integrate digital as part of their traditional PR Strategy?
My email is email@example.com if you would like to get in touch.....

Getting Pregnant
Labor and Delivery
Baby and Beyond
I've decided that I'm going to find training for and become a Natural Childbirth Educator. I found a course where you self train at first and do an exam. Then you find someone to shadow who has the certification and you do a certain number of hours shadowing and teaching with them. They evaluate you and give you a mark and then you get your certification if you pass.
It seems to be the best training track out there that I could find, or at least a start. There are other ones I could do as well like Hypnobirthing or the Bradley Method, etc. But I just want basics to start.
My hopes are that eventually I can offer to teach the courses through my cities continuing education system. You can apply to teach anything through them, they arrange to take all the payments and arrange for the location, you just teach and they pay you.
Oh that's awesome! Sounds fun! I would love to do something like that. Sometimes I daydream about quitting my job and becoming a doula. Can't afford it though and running to births in the middle of the night all over the city sounds tough, but I love babies/birth that much. I guess it would help if I actually had a natural birth first though. My doula had both epidural and natural and was great on making me feel not as disappointed in myself for taking the epi after 17 hours of labor and pitocin.
Good luck! Have fun!
sounds like a wonderful idea! KUP on how it's going!

Goltz, who played the second half and completed 13 of 15 throws for 170 yards, was in charge for Winnipeg's only touchdown of the game, a run by Chad Simpson late in the fourth quarter.

Dad's Dish Retro Blog Reboot for 2013
Some of my other interests include beach cruiser bikes, bicycle restoration and customization, writing, reading, toy collecting, and anything to do with Disney, Tiki, and Sci-Fi. Fortunately, most of my interests always intersect with the vintage and retro aspect at some point, so I never run out of topics to write about. That being said, doing all I can to raise my family properly, sometimes leaves little time to pursue personal interests including blogging.
Less is not more when it comes to blogging. If you stop producing content, or even slow down enough.. you start losing exposure, as well as readers. I at one time had several blogs I regularly updated, and have slowly incorporated them into this, my oldest blog. I've decided to bring one more into the fold.. that being my food blog. That being said, I will now be able to offer lots of varied content that I hope my readers will enjoy. I think I've found my happy medium with this blog which will should offer at least one new post per week.
So many friends and family in my life never "got me". Even some of my closest friends shared very little in common with me in regards to my hobbies and leisure activities. I've connected with tons of great people over the years online that actually share my same interests, and enjoy listening me talk about them. Therefore, I feel it my duty to keep turning out fresh content that they are so thirsty for.
Scheduling my time to write for the blog will help with my new goal. A fresh coat of paint and new blog banner has also lit a fire under me to do more with the site. So here's to 2013.. and hoping it will be a great year that produces more great retro content not only here, but across the entire blogosphere.

Wow, love the new look, Darrin! Looking forward to new posts!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Pam! It's a work in progress.. and will surely be tweaked a few times pretty soon.Delete
Yeah! You're not quitting! At first, that's what I was afraid I was reading. Do it at a pace you like and that keeps you interested, but not so much it's a chore.ReplyDeleteReplies
Amen to that! It was so easy to fill the site with content when I had lots of spare time. However one or two posts a week is very doable for me right now.Delete
Cool Darrin, sounds good. Love the new layout and I look forward to more posts! Glad to become friends and I completely understand that life gets in the way. I've dropped to about 2 posts a week as well if I'm lucky. But the main thing is that we're all still here!!!ReplyDeleteReplies
We sure are Jay! Even if only a couple people read the blog, I would still be doing this. I need to get the stuff out of my head that's rattling around after all right? ;^DDelete
Can you send me some of your home brew? We can trade. What do you want?ReplyDeleteReplies
Do you homebrew too? I've got a decent Tart Chocolate Cherry Stout I brewed not too long ago. Also did a SMASH IPA recently that's pretty good.Delete
Well cheers! I'll be watching.ReplyDeleteReplies
Heh Heh, thanks! (I can Haz a blog wifout burneeng myself owt!) ;^DDelete
Darrin the site looks wonderful!! I totally know what you mean about finding time to blog. It definitely is a balancing act to find time for everything. Hooray for your new outlook and I can't wait for all your new posts. Cheers! :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Chelly! I appreciate that.Delete
Glad you are sticking around. I enjoy both your blogs!ReplyDelete
Aw thanks, It feels good to know folks actually enjoy what I put out there.ReplyDelete
Love the new banner! I've been trying to find a happy medium with blogging too. For me personally, I dislike the thought of having a different blog for every interest I have so I've used just the one to cover everything...which might be a mistake? I gained a lot of followers who thought it was a vintage-only blog, but I don't want it to be a vintage-only blog. :) Anyway, looking forward to more of your posts here.ReplyDeleteReplies
Aw thanks Bets! I've tried the every blog thing a few times, and it simply takes up too much time for me personally. I understand your dilemma too. It's tough sometimes when you feel required to stay within certain parameters, while at the same time you have so many other interests. Fortunately for me, just about all my interests can be tied into my overall theme of this blog. You do a nice job with content, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.Delete

Summer Solstice
by, 20th June 2012 at 11:40 AM (562 Views)
I thought it was too generic to do a mega mention on my Bulbaversary. Doing it the day after, however , is a completely different story. Let's get this started:
@Abbadon; You and your time travel amazes me. how your remain 5 hours ahead will be forever shrouded in mystery.
@Baron Brixius; Hurry up and return from your ban. You are an awesome troll.
@Mellowaffle; The Hispanic. Your inability to be offended is a life skill.
@Neltharion S. Deathwing; My first real forum friend. You are a rock in a fickle society. You will never go on drugs.
@Hypersonic; For being a fan of the best show in the world, Spongebob.
@Gym Leader Iris; For puttting up with the shit I sent via Swapnote. Endured longer than the rest.
@TheCapsFan; At first I thought you were a n00b. Then you got WAY more VMs than me. This is when my mind changed
@Steelrush; Our many conversations that cannot see the light of day have been great.
Now for the real mega mention:
@Snoozle; @Serperiority; @Water Max; @Reader; @Professor Erin; @Lavender Frost; @Gym Leader Homika; @Gym Leader Giovanni; @Milkapoke; @Ghost; @Skyla; @Elite Four Koga; @Ino-Chan; @Mijzelffan; @Kyumorph; @Roaring Chuck; @Enzap;
@Nicoleta01; @RaccoonGoon; @Bouffalant Herdier; @NfiNity; @Hallowheart; @Ghetsis-Dennis; @TheMissingno.; @System Error;
If you're not here, I must've either forgotten you, or don't like you.
Also you bastards made this so difficult. I had to keep checking to see who half of these Gym Leaders really were. Why did my Bulbaversary have to coincide with this fad?
Enjoy the 6 months we have left until the world ends.
