Retro Disney World
Here's a recap of last week, a week filled with Christmas and Disney characters:
On Sunday, I went to the Magic Kingdom after work to see the first Cinderella Castle lighting ceremony of the year. At 6:15, "Cinderella's Holiday Wish" took place, and the Fairy Godmother lit the Castle in beautiful lights. I stayed in the park to watch Wishes, and then went down into the tunnel to wait in the Tomorrowland break room until the Christmas parade preview. A bunch of us from Cosmic Ray's then went to see the Cast Member preview of Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, which shows during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party. The parade was awesome! It was so magical to be standing on Main Street with all the Christmas lights on, and watching the Christmas parade. AND, it was snowing on Main Street. What a great night with great people.
On Tuesday, I had my Entertainment Show Production class at Hollywood Studios, where we toured the Fantasmic stage (the second time for me!) It was great to get another look at the mountain and the control booth, as well as the basement of the mountain. After class, I stayed at Hollywood Studios and met a couple friends from work. We had fun going on rides and interacting with the Citizens of Hollywood. We then went to the Animation building for character meet-and-greets. This was perhaps the most fun of the day! I met Belle, Jafar, the Queen of Hearts, Tweedledee, Tweedledum, Frozone, Mr. Incredible, Pluto, Chip & Dale, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Max, Aladdin, Jasmine, and Genie. Afterwards, we stayed to see the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights. That was really cool. I had never seen it before, and I was quite impressed.
On Wednesday, I visited Animal Kingdom for a few character meet-and-greets. I met Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, Thumper, Safari Mickey, and Safari Goofy. I also went to see Festival of the Lion King, which is always fun. Then I stayed to see the last showing of Finding Nemo the Musical, one of my favorite shows at Walt Disney World.
On Thursday, I went to the Magic Kingdom before work. I met the White Rabbit outside Cosmic Ray's, and then watched the 3:00 parade. After the parade, I went to the Tangled "play-and-greet" to meet Rapunzel and Flynn Rider. They were a lot of fun! Afterwards I headed over to Frontierland to meet Woody and Jessie, and then saw the 5:00 flag retreat in Town Square.
On Friday, I went to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party with my friend Krista's parents. They were visiting from Michigan for the weekend, so I was able to get discount tickets for the party, and I thought I'd join them for the fun. We saw the castle show, Celebrate the Season, twice. We also saw the parade twice. And not to mention the Holiday Wishes fireworks. Those were great, especially the perimeter fireworks that go 180º around the castle. We also enjoyed the free hot chocolate and sugar cookies (perhaps a bit too many….) After going on the Haunted Mansion, we met Cinderella's stepsisters and stepmother in Fantasyland. That was a lot of fun.
All in all I would say that was one of the most fun-filled weeks I've had in a while. And I especially love all of the Christmas decorations and music now taking over the parks!
Some days at work are better than others. Some days are slow, some days are quick. Some are more fun than others, some are more stressful that others. But in the end, I have fun. And I remind myself that it really isn't about me; it's about the Guests. It's about providing them the best possible experience possible. So what can we do as Cast Members to provide them exceptional Guest Service?
At Cosmic Ray's, one of the "magical moments" is singing a song to Guests wearing a birthday button:
Attention Cosmic Ray's! Today is a very special day! Does anybody know why? Because today is _____'s birthday!
Cosmic Ray's is here to say today's a day to celebrate! It's a very special day so have a happy birthday!
It only takes a few seconds, and it makes the Guest feel special. Sometimes it takes them by surprise. They aren't expecting Cast Members to run from all over the restaurant to join in the song. It's loud and fun, and it makes the day a lot less mundane.
So one night, a Guest approached me and handed me a postcard. He wanted to thank me for making his family vacation feel extra special by singing the birthday song. But I hadn't sung it to anybody in his family. He just saw me singing the song to couple of kids, but he wanted to thank me for doing that. It was so nice to be recognized for doing something so simple: just singing happy birthday!
He then returned a little later and took a picture of me holding the postcard. Hmmm….
When I got home, I took a closer look at the postcard. It was a custom-made postcard, with an Epcot Monorail stamp on it. Also on it was a web address, where I could see my thank-you note and photo. Aha! That's what the picture was for!
So I checked the website, (www.roseforest.com/wdw2010) and found this note:
So a few weeks later, I checked again, and saw my name!
When I clicked on my name, I was taken to a description of my "magical moment" with the picture he took of me and the postcard!
I am so honored to be considered a memorable Cast Member from this gentleman's vacation. It's nice knowing that the smallest, simplest things we do as Cast Members can really make someone's vacation that much more special.
I will forever treasure the postcard he gave me. It is a shining example of why I love being a Disney Cast Member.
I've been taking the 5 "My Disney Career Series" courses offered as a part of the College program. They are great resources for all aspects of marketing yourself as a professional. Five classes are offered: Acing the Interview, Personal Branding, image Excellence, Résumé Writing, and Networking 101.
I have learned a lot from these courses. They give you a great insight into what to expect in the future for job interviews and professional positions, as well as what Disney is specifically looking for in future Cast Members.
Some of the best parts of the classes are the quotes and statistics that really paint a picture of how important it is to be professional, all the time.
People are willing to pay 12% more for brands they know. That is why it is important to define your own personal brand and show others why you're unique. A good quote: "We are the CEOs of our own company; Me Inc."
It only takes 7 seconds to make a first impression. 55% is visual. 38% is vocal (tone of voice.) 7% is verbal (grammar, word choice.) That's why it is so important to be 100% professional, 100% of the time. Whether you're in the waiting room for your interview, or at the grocery store, you never know who might be watching you. And when you're making your first impression over the phone, everything is magnified. Your first impression is 70% vocal. So put a mirror on your desk, so you can see what you look like as you talk.
So last Wednesday was perhaps the highlight of my College Program experience thus far. I was like a kid in a candy store: I got to tour the Fantasmic island and the Beauty and the Beast stage!
My day started out by meeting the stage manager outside the control booth in the empty Fantasmic amphitheater. It was really weird seeing it empty. Usually it is filled to capacity. We made our way around to the back of the island, and crossed a bridge so we were behind the mountain. It was enormous! We then climbed all the way up to the top, and worked our way from top to bottom.
The backside of the mountain was really cool. There were pyro cannons all over, and a lot of safety cables and such. The stage manager showed me all of the little secrets of the mountain, where certain character stand, and explained where the tech crew are positioned and what they do during the show.
We then passed the dragon. It was really cool to see it up close and personal. It is huge! Then we walked onstage, and she showed me where all the lifts are located. It truly is a massive stage.
From there, we headed into the basement under the stage. Luckily this area is air-conditioned. In the basement, we saw the cauldron, and the various lifts. I actually stood on Maleficent's lift, and saw how the safety pedals work.We then headed back up and toured the steamboat. She showed me where the driver sits, and we then climbed up to the top where Steamboat Mickey stands.
Then, we headed into the maintenance/workshop area behind the theatre. Located here are costume/scenic storage, light/tech workshops, a rehearsal studio, a green room, a well as offices.
We went through the wig workshop, the light workshop, the rehearsal studio, the green room, and finally the costume room. That was my favorite room: so many character costumes, some of which you never get to see up close because certain characters never appear in meet-and-greets, such as Steamboat Mickey.
Our tour then came to an end, in the stage manager's office. But my day wasn't over yet! The stage manager mentioned that she would be calling the 4:00 show of Beauty and the Beast, and she invited me to sit in the control booth with her during the show, and then to take a backstage tour!So I met her again inside the theatre and we made our way to the control booth. She actually gave me a headset to wear so I could hear all of the tech communication!
Following the show, we made our way backstage. Everything was already preset for the next show! The tech crew did that really fast!
She showed me all of the costumes, props, and set pieces. We then walked onstage and took a look at the newly-installed backdrops.
The whole time, I was just in awe of the exquisite detail and wonderful theming of everything around me. I was just so impressed with how creative and innovative everything was.
Well after a few more questions for the stage manager, it was time to say goodbye. I am so thankful for her taking the time to treat me to such a wonderful experience. If I don't have one more good day on my Program, it will all have been worth it because of my day touring the theaters at Hollywood Studios!
Last week I was an extremely happy and lucky guy: I got to sit in the control booth during a performance of Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios!
It was definitely an out-of-this-world experience. The stage manager could not have been nicer when I met her the previous week, and when she offered me the opportunity to sit in with her during a show, I knew it was an opportunity I couldn't pass up.
I arrived at the Fantasmic theatre at 6:30 for a 7:00 show. I met the stage manager near the control booth at the back of the theatre. Inside the control room, I met Adam (in charge of show control,) Mike (in charge of fire,) Steve (in charge of lights,) as well as Dan (who is usually a spotlight operator.)
The control room itself was very cool. There were video screens and computer monitors everywhere, tracking everything from lights, temperature, wind and humidity. They check all of these things to make sure everything will be safe when it comes to all of the pyro and fire effects.
At about 10 minutes before showtime, the stage manager did a headset check to make sure everybody on headset could hear her. She also did a spot check to make sure all of the spotlight operators were in position and ready. Dan, who was supposed to be spot 4, sat in the booth because the instrument wasn't working.
The stage manager then waited for a call from the backstage manager that the green room was clear. Looking at the stage, the SM could tell that it wasn't quite dark enough yet for Mickey's entrance to work, so she held for 5 minutes. She then called places/5 minutes to showtime.
Soon, the show started with that famous musical intro everybody knows. Mickey popped up onstage, and the fun began. It was really cool to see the show with a perfect view of everything, as well as to be able to look at different backstage and onstage views from various cameras around the theatre, on screens in the control booth.
The SM's job was mainly to warn and call spotlight cues. The sound, lights and water effects are all pre-cued in the show control system, and it was Adam's job to make sure everything was synced up. Mike controlled all of the pyrotechnics and fire effects, following his own prompt book.
During the run of the show, I did witness some conflict resolutions. At one point, it appeared that one of the monkey performers fell down on the floating barge, so the SM called backstage to find out what happened. It turned out to be a costuming issue, and was nothing serious. Other minor conflicts that arose were also due to costuming issues, so the SM made notes to try to fix these problems before the second show that evening.
I did learn that the SM is trained backstage first, so they know how everything works. There is a lot to coordinate backstage, since many of the show's effects involve safety precautions for both actors and crew.
The show finally came to a close, and it was pretty much a smooth, flawless run (minus a few costuming issues.) The dragon worked, and all of the sound and lights were on cue.
I am most definitely thankful to the wonderful stage manager who helped set up this amazing opportunity for me. It was a night I will never forget!
I get asked a lot of questions at work. Most of them are about the food — how big or how much, or about the Disney Dining Plan. I also get a lot of repeat questions, like about where straws/napkins are or where the bathrooms are. Here are some of the questions I've been asked… some just once, and some quite often.
- Are these onions or is it sauerkraut? (I would like it if it were sauerkraut, but no, they're onions.)
- Where is Tomorrowland? (Ummm…you're in it!)
- Is this the place in Tomorrowland where they sell turkey legs? (No! That's Frontierland. I don't know who is telling all of these guests that Cosmic Ray's sells Turkey Legs.)
- Where is the bar on Main Street? (Keep dreaming, sir.)
- Can you keep my leftovers in a refrigerator and I'll pick them up later? (Wouldn't that be nice?!)
- Can I get a shot of orange soda in my Diet Coke? (Sure, whatever floats your boat!)
- Can I trade my chocolate cake for grapes? (That's the opposite of what I would ask!)
- Can you cut my sandwich in half for me? (Are you afraid to use a plastic knife?)
- What exactly is Sonny Eclipse? We thought he was a hippo. (He's an alien. A lizard alien.)
On Tuesday, September 14, I went to the opening night of Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! This is a separately-ticketed event, so regular park guests must have a ticket for the party itself. Luckily, I was able to get a Cast Member discount for the ticket at a Company D store. Tickets for certain nights are upwards of $70 each! That's almost as much as a one-day park ticket!
It's definitely a fun event. From 7:00 pm to midnight, the Magic Kingdom hosts a number of special Halloween activities exclusive to the party. Guests are encouraged to dress up in costume (and there were plenty of guests all dressed up even this early in September!…. kids and adults too!)
On the topic of costumes, there are actually a few "rules" guests are supposed to follow. Costumes should be child-friendly and not offensive. (It's still the Magic Kingdom!) Adults can wear masks, as long as they can still see safely. And guests dressed up as Disney characters are not allowed to pose for pictures or sign autographs for other guests.
Throughout the park, there were Trick-or-Treating stops, hosted by "Goofy's Candy Company." Everyone entering the Magic Kingdom received a (small) bag to hold all of the candy. Plastic pumpkin pails were available for purchase.
There were also special character meet-and-greets not normally available during regular park hours. I met Timon, Baloo, Jane and Terk, Aladdin and Abu, the Mad Hatter, Buzz Lightyear, as well as Donald and Daisy. There were also character dance parties, where favorite Disney characters rocked out to music and you could dance right alongside them! There was Stitch's Club 626 over in Tomorrowland, and Woody's Happy Harvest Roundup in Liberty Square inside the Diamond Horseshoe restaurant.
One of my favorite parts of the night was the show in front of the Castle, Disney's Villains Mix & Mingle. It's a live show featuring famous Disney villains — Maleficent, the Queen of Hearts, Captain Hook, Jafar, Cruella De Vil, and the Evil Queen. It was cool to see them all together in one place! And after the show, they came down in front of the castle to "mingle" with the guests and take pictures! I was lucky enough to get my picture with Cruella!
After the show, I headed up Main Street to pick a spot to watch the fireworks — Happy HalloWishes, A Grim Grinning Ghosts' Spooktacular in the Sky. It's a great fireworks show, with plenty of Disney villain songs in the soundtrack. And the lighting on the castle is amazing! It's so cool to see the castle lit up entirely green!
The parade, Mickey's Boo-to-You Halloween Parade, is definitely the highlight of the night. Favorite Disney characters are all dressed up in costumes as you've never seen them before. There are also many floats featuring famous Disney villains, as well as characters from the Haunted Mansion — like the hitchhiking ghosts! A headless horseman starts the parade by riding down Main Street.
More memories from my Fall 2010 CP at Cosmic Ray's
The Disney College Program is all about living, learning, and earning… so here's a little bit about the earning aspect of the program.
I'm working at Cosmic Ray's Starlight Café, which is a quick-service restaurant located in Tomorrowland at the Magic Kingdom. It is the largest fast-food location in the Magic Kingdom, so we definitely get a lot of business. Apparently it is the second busiest quick-service restaurant in the WORLD, right after a 24-hour McDonald's in Moscow. Now that's something to brag about! Who else can say they've worked for one of the busiest restaurants in the world?!
Cosmic Ray's has three individual bays, at which you can order different types of foods. Bay One is Chicken, and serves selections like rotisserie chicken, ribs, chicken nuggets and chicken sandwiches. Bay Two is Burgers, and serves burgers, hot dogs, chili cheese dogs, veggie burgers and chili cheese fries. Bay Three is Sandwich, Soup and Salad, and serves burgers, wraps, pork sandwiches, greek and caesar salads, and soup. All three bays serve kids meals (chicken nuggets, turkey sandwich or peanut butter and jelly,) as well as drinks and desserts. Kosher Meals are available upon request. They also do a really great job at accommodating guests with food allergies.
In the lower eating area (the Starlight Lounge,) an Audio-Animatronics lounge lizard known as Sonny Eclipse entertains guests. Sonny is on an interplanetary tour, having traveled to several solar systems. Cosmic Ray's is his first gig on Earth. He sits behind his famous Astro Organ, which backs him up with music…. all at the touch of a button. He is also backed up by his invisible back-up singers, the Space Angels. Though the music is cheesy and his jokes are corny, Sonny is an entertaining aspect of the restaurant and makes work a little more fun.My costume for work isn't that bad either. Black pants, black shoes, and a gray futuristic shirt make up my costume. I can also wear a Pin Trading lanyard (most of the time…)
Overall, I enjoy working at Cosmic Ray's. It's busy, so I'm usually not just standing watching time go by. And the people are great, the managers are nice, and it's a fun environment. Plus, I get to look out the window and see Cinderella Castle! That really makes it enjoyable.
On Saturday, August 28, the Disney Fairy Tale Wedding Pavilion hosted an open house. With some free time before my work training began, I thought I'd check it out and see how magical it really is.
Walking up to the main building, Cinderella' carriage was parked in front. What better way to show up to your wedding than in Cinderella's very own horse-drawn carriage!
I then walked over to the chapel. Inside, there were cakes to sample. Very delicious! Walking down the aisle, you look out over Seven Seas Lagoon and get a picture-perfect view of Cinderella Castle. A few fireworks even shot off as I was taking in the marvelous view.
Suddenly, the organ started playing and a "mother-of-the-bride" walked a few guests down the aisle. She introduced a panel of wedding planners, florists, chefs and other designers, who answered questions from the audience.
It was definitely a wonderful way to spend a Saturday morning. I've always wanted to get a close-up view and inside look of the Wedding Pavilion, and I'm glad I took advantage of this opportunity.

SBTRKT – Hold On (SISI BAKBAK Remix)
The pulsing beat that carries SBTRKT's "Hold On" track is still present in the SISI BAKBAK Remix, but the vibe has been totally recreated into something more melancholy. The more downplayed tone is expected, considering SISI BAKBAK is Thom Yorke of Radiohead's electronic side project. The remix is about twice as long as the original, and substitutes SBTRKT's heartbroken prose for a more unintelligible trance sound.

The Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank and our network of member agencies provide an essential service to people in need of food assistance. While it is important to feed the needy, it is equally important to ensure that food being distributed throughout our network is safe and suitable for distribution and consumption. By following some basic food safety precautions while storing, preparing and serving food, we can ensure that the men, women and children we serve will be well fed and protected at the same time.
Effective immediately, the Foodbank is requiring at least one representative from each of our member agencies participate in a basic food safety training course. The representative from the member agency should be one of the key food program managers or coordinators.
The basic food safety training course will cover five key areas:
Basic food safety
Personal hygiene
Cross-contamination and allergens
Controlling time & temperature
Cleaning and sanitation
The food safety training also includes an assessment measure to ensure that all attendees understand the basics of food safety.
New member agencies will be required to complete this training during their orientation.
For more information on food safety training go the the Civil Rights & Food Safety page under Education & Training or contact the Member Services Department.

One veiny arm wrapped around my neck and a set of massive legs squeezing my torso, I wriggle for escape to no avail. The hunk dominating me is twice my size, bulging with strength. He clamps down on me again; I can feel his cock throbbing against my back as he works me into submission. It's time for him to have his way with me, so I submit to his prowess. He throws me to the ground and grabs a rope, harnessing my hands and legs in the air. I ready myself as he slicks up his 10" dick, rubbing it against me.

The kids are back in school and with it comes peer pressure of a different kind: Having the same snacks as your friends. On the Kids Eating Healthy board, ishagirl, who tries to pack a healthful lunch for her kids, finds herself struggling with her daughter, who wants all the sugar-laden treats that her friends eat, like green and purple Trix yogurt. Mom does her best to offer similar, more nutritious options, but her daughter is still balking. How do you handle your kids' begging?
Izzyandalexsmommy found that some tough-love techniques dialed down her kids' complaints. "I have for the most part told whichever kid was complaining to get over themselves. We also noticed a significant drop in begging once we got rid of cable. There are so many things my kids don't even notice, because they didn't see the commercial for it," she says.
Nathanielsmom110100 takes the creative route, making fruit kabobs with dipping sauce, or finding the organic equivalent of high-sugar treats. "My son wanted those yogurt tubes, too, so I bought the Horizon Organic Tuberz yogurts. Of course, they are treats and I reserve them for his lunchbox. At home, we eat yogurt with fresh or frozen fruit in it, but I don't mind sending those to school with him."
Do your kids beg for the foods their friends are eating? Join the discussion on the Kids Eating Healthy board.
There's been a lot of talk in the news these days about male menopause -- a controversial condition also known as testosterone deficiency, andropause and late-onset hypogonadism. The Today show's Dr. Nancy Snyderman recently sat down with Matt Lauer to discuss the myths and realities of the condition. According to the Mayo Clinic, men lose about one percent of their testosterone every year beginning at the age of 30. By the age of 70, their testosterone could be 50 percent lower. This could account for decreased sex drive, as well as reduced mood and energy levels. In a newly exposed letter to his wife, even Mel Gibson wondered if mid-life hormonal changes could be causing his bizarre behavior. On the Sexual Health board, iVillage women weigh in on whether they believe male menopause is a true or made-up diagnosis.
iVillage member moonlightnroses says she has witnessed male menopause in the man she lives with, and knows several men who are getting testosterone shots to up their flagging hormone levels.
Nhgal2006 is also convinced that male menopause can impact a man's mood and behavior. "I believe my husband has gone through something along the same lines. Losing all sexual desire and being depressed didn't help. His doctor told him that that is what happens when one gets older."
What's your take on male menopause? Chime in below.

By MARCIA DUNN
AP Aerospace Writer
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - John Glenn joined the proud, surviving veterans of NASA's Project Mercury on Saturday in celebrating the 50th anniversary of his historic orbital flight.
The first American to orbit the Earth thanked the approximately 125 retired Mercury workers, now in their 70s and 80s, who gathered with their spouses at Kennedy Space Center to swap stories, pose for pictures and take a bow.
"There are a lot more bald heads and gray heads in that group than others, but those are the people who did lay the foundation," the 90-year-old Glenn said at an evening ceremony attended by NASA officials, politicians, astronauts and hundreds of others.
"We may be up on the point of that thing and get a lot of the attention, and we had ticker-tape parades and all that sort of thing. But the people who made it work ... you're the ones who deserve the accolade. So give yourselves a great big ovation," Glenn said, leading the crowd in applause.
Glenn and fellow astronaut Scott Carpenter, 86, spent nearly an hour before the ceremony being photographed with the retirees, posing for individual pictures in front of a black curtain with a model of a Mercury-Atlas rocket. Glenn and Carpenter are the lone survivors of NASA's original Mercury 7 astronauts.
Earlier in the day, the Mercury brigade traveled by bus to Launch Complex 14. That's the pad from which Glenn rocketed away on Feb. 20, 1962.
Some retirees were in wheelchairs, while others used walkers or canes. Most walked, some more surely than others. But they all beamed with pride as they took pictures of the abandoned pad and of each other, and went into the blockhouse to see the old Mercury photos on display and to reminisce.
As retired engineer Norm Beckel Jr. rode to the pad Saturday, he recalled being seated in the blockhouse right beside Carpenter as the astronaut called out to Glenn right before liftoff, "Godspeed John Glenn."
But there's more to the story.
"Before he said that, he said, `Remember, John, this was built by the low bidder,'" Beckel, 81, told The Associated Press.
The Mercury-Atlas rocket shook the domed bunker-like structure, although no one inside could hear the roar because of the thick walls.
"Nothing was said by anybody until they said, `He's in orbit,' and then the place erupted," Beckel recalled.
Beckel and Jerry Roberts, 78, a retired engineer who also was in the blockhouse that historic morning, said almost all the workers back then were in their 20s and fresh out of college. The managers were in their 30s. "I don't know if I'd trust a 20-year-old today," Beckel said.
"They don't know it, but we would have worked for nothing," said Roberts, who spends the winter in Florida.
Bob Schepp, 77, who like Beckel traveled from St. Louis, Mo., for the reunion, was reminded by the old launch equipment of how rudimentary everything was back then.
"I wonder how we ever managed to launch anything in space with that kind of stuff," Schepp said. "Everything is so digital now. But we were pioneers, and we made it all work."
The Mercury team included women, about 20 of whom gathered for the anniversary festivities. One pulled aside an AP reporter to make sure she knew women were part of the team.
"Most of the women here are wives," said Lucy Simon Rakov, 74. But not her.
"We weren't secretaries. We were mathematicians," said Rakov, a pioneering computer programmer who traveled from Boston for the reunion.
Patricia Palombo, 74, also a computer programmer, said working on Project Mercury proved to be the most significant thing she's done in her career.
Glenn's flight was the turning point that put America on a winning path that ultimately led to the moon.
"It's been downhill from here," Palombo said with a laugh. She lives near Washington, D.C.
Roberts praised the wives who endured the hardships back then. He recalled how he and his colleagues worked 16- and 18-hour days, seven days a week, especially after the Soviet Union grabbed the prize of first spaceman with Yuri Gagarin in 1961. Gagarin reached orbit on his mission; another Soviet cosmonaut also rocketed into orbit before Glenn's voyage.
Many marriages ended in divorce because of the excessive workload, Roberts noted. Turning to his wife, Sandra, he said proudly, "This gal's been with me for 57 years."
"Not that many," she told him. "We're going to be 55."

Symptoms of a corrupt world (and how can You react)
There is something wrong in the world and there always has been something wrong in the world. However, we likely wouldn't know about that should there have been no people to blow the whistles, to speak against the current state of things (that being "the system", "the establishment" or whatever). We would come to accept the current state of things as normal and all the negative effects on our life as mere "facts of life" as supported by "common knowledge" and "common sense".
So called "conspiracy theory" movements are gaining strength. The Free Software and Free Culture movement are providing a shelter from digital restrictions on individual freedoms. The anti-war movement organized the biggest anti-war protest in history in 2003, not so long ago. The internet is doing wonders in rising support for an otherwise completely unlikely president candidate in USA: Ron Paul (albeit whether this would get him elected is highly doubtful).
All of these are symptoms of corruptness of our world. It is the immune system of our societies fighting back at the cancer that is developing in them. You do not have to agree with Alex Jones or David Icke on everything. You might even consider them frauds trying to earn their fortunes on people's hunger for some sort of a change. However, if everything was fine and if people really didn't have anything to rally against, they wouldn't have the success that they had.
Furthermore, despite sometimes dubious story arks presented by these people, many of the things they say do reflect the truth as I see it and some of the reactions they awake in people are indeed ones that should awake. I once recently read a comment about libertarians from someone who doesn't necessarily agree with them. He said, and I paraphrase, that a good thing about libertarians is that they serve as a detector of bad government behaviour since they put government at so much scrutiny. My point is that even when you disagree with the general context surrounding a particular political faction or a campaign, there may be some things about it which are worth picking out and recognizing as good effects.
This is why I advocate inquisitive exploration and open minded analysis of everything, as long as you are capable and well trained (by yourself) to resist classical propaganda appeals. This way you can separate the stuff that makes sense to you from the stuff that, as some aptly say, alarms your "bullshit detector" (which too must be well trained).
However, open minded exploration must be combined with another incredibly important thing: self-determination. You must respect yourself, believe in yourself and be confident. You must discover who you are and what you want to be in order to know the context of your interests and your exploratory journey. Here is the thing. No book, no newspaper, no TV station, no internet podcast, no holly book, no government and no leader deserves an absolute trust. The only one you must trust is yourself.
To borrow a saying from the movie idiocracy: "Either lead, follow or get out of the way". I think there is quite a bit of wisdom to those words. What I would urge everyone to try to choose among these three options is "lead". Seriously, I want everyone to be leaders!
You might ask how is this possible? Someone must be a follower, right? Well, there is nothing about this piece of wisdom which denies the possibility of combining either of these three options. What I advocate is a certain way of prioritizing where "lead" comes first, "follow" comes second and "get out of the way" comes third. For example, when exploring someone's presentation of "truth" you must think like a leader, the leader of yourself and determine whether it is a good idea to lead yourself to the following of this new "truth". Just the same, when you are considering "getting out of the way", this is the mind set which should be employed. Following something or someone as well as getting out of the way (possibly submitting to a sort of ignorance) are options that should be picked with much more deliberation than they usually are.
You must be a leader.
Imagine a nation of such leaders, self-determined, confident, curious and open minded. Who is going to pull one over their eyes? How can they be manipulated? They can't. This is why I believe this mentality of leadership, when adopted by ideally everyone in our society might be one of the fundamental pillars of positive world change.
That said, going back to the real world as we see it today, here is an interesting observation. Why are "conspiracy theorists" like Alex Jones and David Icke so full of propaganda material appealing to ones emotional triggers? Could it be because the majority of our society has become so numb to intellectual rationalism that there is no other way to reach them other than propagandist emotional appeals? If this is so (and I would be willing to bet it is), then it is certainly a sad state of things. These common people are essentially like remote controlled drones – you only need to press the right switches for them to move.
It is hard to tell who is guilty of turning them into this. Is it the system (media propagated culture of consumerism, culture of desire etc.) they help fuel or is it themselves for letting it happen in the first place? It may really be both, since it is hard to see things ever being much better in the past. If anything people have been even more ignorant and conforming. However, one thing that seems to be different and most scary about the present culture of conformism and ignorance is that they believe they are free and that everything is just fine.
And this is because they failed to grow up into leaders of themselves and are still nannied by the corrupt system they live in and perpetuate. It's time to make kids into adults and turn this movement of sub-humanism into intellectual super-humanism.
Disclaimer: Again, I have to say that sub-humanism and super-humanism do not refer to inherent state of human beings. We are all simply human. Instead, I refer to the aspirations which may be towards sub- or super-. This is not about eugenics and not about trans-humanism, nor do my views condone treating people as less or more human. Perhaps I will get tired of these disclaimers and come up with alternative terms. Feel free to make suggestions.
Disclaimer2: The fact that I realized and acknowledged these notions does not necessarily make me an end result of these "super-humanism" aspirations. I wouldn't even claim to be a very good leader of myself. I have my problems and I am, after all, a mere human. However, I think it is the realization that matters as the first step towards making yourself more superb. I am on my journey. I hope you will or already had started yours.

An article in the March 1 Metro edition of The Press incorrectly stated that Dr. Leah Dorman, a former veterinarian with the Ohio Department of Agriculture, was an appointee to the Ohio Livestock Care Standards Board.
She hasn't been appointed to the board. She will discuss State Issue 2, which established the board, at the Ottawa County Agriculture Community Breakfast on March 26 in Oak Harbor.

Candidates vying to be Ohio's next governor have found an issue they can agree on.
Family farms in Wood and Lucas counties are among the 11 properties totaling nearly 1,000 acres being added this year to the holdings of the Black Swamp Conservancy.
The new properties, which are protected through perpetual land conservation agreements with the conservancy, include:
• South Lake Hunt Club, a 71-acre marsh in Ottawa County
• Four farms covering about 320 acres near Delta in Fulton County
• A scenic overlook parcel near Sidecut Metropark in Maumee
• Port Clinton Lakefront Preserve, a 14-acre public park near Lake Erie
• A 73-acre wildlife sanctuary along the Maumee River in Paulding County.
• A 247-acre farm near Tiffin
Jerusalem Township's police steering committee is preparing a questionnaire to get feedback from the public on what kind of police services they would like to have.
The committee, which consists of six residents, meets every couple of weeks to discuss options on providing police protection to the township.
"Policing is supposed to represent the population, and we want to know what they want," said Ron Frederick, a member of the commission.
Voters last November rejected by over a two to one margin a 3.5-mill, one year police levy that would have raised revenue to pay the sheriff to patrol the township.
The township currently receives sheriff's patrols at no charge from Lucas County. That will end this year. Lucas County commissioners last summer notified nine unincorporated areas in the county, including Jerusalem Township, that they will be charged for sheriff's patrols due to budgetary constraints.
The notification sent townships scrambling for ways to raise funds to continue getting their current level of services from the sheriff, or contract with adjacent communities for police protection. To maintain sheriff patrols, Jerusalem Township, which has a population of 3,181 within a 30.4 square mile area, would have been charged $347,000 annually by the sheriff.

A couple of weeks back, we received some unconfirmed reports stating that Apple sneaked in HomeKit support to Apple TV with the 7.0 update. But things became official on Tuesday, when the Apple TV 7.0.1 beta 2 was rolled out to developers. In the changelogs, Apple has acknowledged that the update "can be used for testing AirPlay and HomeKit with your iOS apps."
Once again an Apple patent is under the microscope, as Apple Insider caught up with an application submitted by the Cupertino engineers. Titled "Browsing Remote content using a native interface", it re-imagines how the remote app works with Apple TV.
Along with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, Apple announced an entire new product line up today morning. Like many had speculated, its a watch; not called the iWatch though, its the Apple Watch (learn morn about Apple Watch). And among the hundreds of features Apple boasted to be stuffed into this tiny metal square, the Apple TV also made its mark.
So Amazon has finally dropped the curtains on its set-top box, the Fire TV, which comes as a direct competitor to the Apple TV. One of the major features boasted by Amazon is its voice search function. You'll be surprised to know that you can get the voice search feature on your Apple TV, right now.
Thanks to the latest courtroom war between Apple and Samsung, a lot of private mails and documents shared between Steve Jobs and his top employees has be made public. iPhone for normal people, Samsung's marketing strategy, and a Holy war with Google are some of the most discussed ones. But what is significant for us Apple TV lovers is this excerpt from a mail Jobs sent in 2010 regarding the Apple TV 2.
Together with a German tech blog Curved.de, Martin Hajek, a popular 3D designer, has worked out a concept design of a next Apple set-top box – an Apple TV touch, on which we reported a few days back. The highlight of this concept was a new, completely redesigned touch-based remote. Leter on, Hajek added a new, different concept of a remote – he turned it into a "true gaming controller". This is how it might look like.

Welcome to Backpacking Nor Cal. This site is about, you guessed it, backpacking in the northern part of the great state of California. No matter where one might live here, they are never more than a few hours drive from an ocean, 14k peaks, deciduous rain forests, high desert, glacial carved canyons and open river valleys. There are very few other places in the world, if any, that share such an intense dichotomy of landscape. That, my friends, makes Northern California a backpacker's paradise.
Because of this significant variation of landscape, much of the information found here is applicable to almost any place in the world one might choose to backpack in. So if you don't reside in or around Northern California, the content here will likely apply to wherever you choose to backpack.
Backpacking is fun. With the right equipment, know how and attitude, backpacking can be enjoyed by almost anyone. Therein lies the goal here at Backpacking Nor Cal. We'll do our best to give some recommendations on gear that will give you the best opportunity to have fun. We'll strive to teach you how to stay safe and save weight, both of which will maximize your fun. We'll give you some suggestions of fun places for backpackers of any skill level to explore. Most importantly, we'll show you how most anyone can find carrying a bunch of crap on their back and walking for long distances can be a very rewarding and fun experience.

When New Zealand Post CEO Brian Roche collects his mail, he will need a bit of help to carry a Giant Postcard sent with a special message from Dunedin - Save Dunedin Metro Post Office and Kiwibank.
A special public signing of the Giant Postcard will be held at 12.30 today outside the Civic Centre in The Octagon.
Save Dunedin Post Shop and Kiwibank campaign spokesperson Victor Billot says members of the public are invited to sign the Giant Postcard and add their messages.
The postcard reads "Dear Brian, please don't shut out post office. Yours sincerely, Dunedin."
The giant postcard can be viewed online at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22147001/Dear_Brian.pdf
The Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank is under threat of closure next week.
Head office managers have refused to meet with local people to hear their concerns.
Following the unveiling and public signing outside the Civic Centre, supporters will carry the Giant Postcard to Dunedin Metro Post Shop in the Exchange where an attempt will be made to freepost it.
"We will be asking people to trudge all the way down the Exchange with us to symbolize the trip that busy, heavily laden New Zealand Post customers will have to make every day without their post if Dunedin Metro is closed."
Supporters are gathering outside the Civic Centre today to highlight that not enough organized support from city representatives has been seen.
"We have had a letter or two sent, some individual councillors joining us, but there does not seem to be the co-ordinated and high profile public backing that Dunedin ratepayers would expect from the City."
The mayor has declined to meet with the group today as he has a prior engagement.
Mr Billot says a meeting has been arranged with the Mayor next Tuesday.
"We want to meet with the Mayor, it would have been good to have had some kind of meeting a month ago."
However the group would be staging a walk past of the DCC at today's gathering to register their concerns.
2518 signatures have been gathered on a petition and sent to New Zealand Post.

Everything you need, but no post office: good one NZ Post!
In their latest public relations fiasco, New Zealand Post have enraged the hundreds of box holders at Dunedin Metro post shop by delivering leaflets into our boxes today advertising services that they intend to close next week.
What do the leaflets say?
"Sending offers to send you to your local PostShop" reads the headline, and the flyer goes on to advertise diverse goods and services including parcel post, Kiwibank credit cards and iTunes vouchers.
We congratulate New Zealand Post on their proactive advertising of their services.
But we point out that users of Dunedin Metro will not be able to access any of these goods and services if NZ Post closes our post office next week.
Makes you wonder, doesn't it.
The Mayor
Dunedin City Council
PO Box 5045,
Moray Place,
Dunedin 9058
Cc: the citizens and ratepayers of Dunedin
By email email@example.com
15 June 2011
Dear Mayor,
The Save Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank campaign seek an urgent meeting with you this Friday 17 June at 12.30pm.
The reason for setting this time is that we have no time left. New Zealand Post intend to shut the doors of Dunedin Metro on 23 June.
Dunedin has already lost Mornington post outlet and now the main post office in the central business district in Dunedin is under imminent threat.
A public meeting was held by our campaign last night in Community House, and your apologies were given to the meeting. We acknowledge the short notice that is the result of the lack of consultation by New Zealand Post.
Yesterday evening you were attending an event on the future of Dunedin's urban planning. While this is important, the battle to maintain basic services in our City in the here and now is even more pressing.
In attendance at our meeting last night were a number of local people that included a property manager for a number of commercial properties in the Exchange area, a business owner who sends and receives international parcels on a regular basis, local office workers, parents, and retired people.
Those attending represented well the diverse nature of the Dunedin ratepayers who will be affected by a closure of Dunedin Metro.
Those present were extremely concerned at the response of the City Council in representing their interests in this matter.
Apart from some individual councillors offering their support, and a one off letter that you sent to New Zealand Post, there has been in our view a failure to provide the consistent and proactive leadership by Council that would be expected in this situation.
For example, one of our members contacted the Economic Development Unit and was surprised to find there had been no communication between the EDU and the Mayor on this issue.
This begs the question, what is the point of trying to attract new business when the basic facilities required and wanted by currently existing business are being pulled out of the city.
It was pointed out that many of the efforts of our group have been focussed on trying to mobilize the civic leadership to take serious action, with frankly disappointing results.
It was pointed out that the same issue in Auckland with regards to their Grey Lynn post office, which is under similar threat, has been responded to in quite a different manner.
Within a few days of their local campaign being established, a public meeting was organized and attended by the former Chairman of the ARC and councillor Mike Lee, who spoke strongly in favour of retaining local services.
The Auckland meeting was also attended by NZ Post Community and Government Relations Manager Peter Faa'fiu, who promised to take back the concerns of the meeting to management.
Contrast this to Dunedin.
The same NZ Post manager has refused to meet with either local customers or even the Mayor of the City. This is a complete insult to our City.
Others attending our meeting wondered if the same situation was happening in Invercargill, what would the response of Invercargill mayor Tim Shadbolt be to such a downgrading of his city facilities? We felt that the issue would at least be in the media.
A group of concerned local citizens will be making our feelings about the response of the Dunedin City Council known this Friday at 12.30pm.
We will be assembling in the Civic Centre in an orderly way with signs and petitions promoting our cause and we request that you meet with a delegation from our group in your offices to hear our concerns.
In addition we request that if NZ Post will not come to Dunedin, that you fly to Wellington early next week and insist that they meet with you in person.
They need to understand that this city wants to keep its services and is not a second rate city that accepts second rate treatment.
If you require a conversation starter with them, we bring to your attention the following points from page 4 of the New Zealand Post Statement of Corporate Intent:
"… to deliver to our customers what we have promised; we will listen to them and involve them in our solutions and innovations;
"… we will consider the impacts of our business on the communities in which we operate, and we will engage with our community stakeholders. We will find opportunities to use our capabilities to add value to communities where they need it".
In order to have a result in this situation, the Dunedin City Council needs to use its resources and influence and simply do its job.
To recap – the efforts of our volunteer campaign have achieved:
1. Approximately 2500 signatures and 150 online signatures
2. Around 150 signed letters to NZ Post
3. A rally, two post shop protest events, and a public meeting
4. National and local media coverage, website etc.
What has been the official contribution of the DCC to this campaign, with all its resources and contacts?
You have informed a member of our campaign group that to continue efforts would be "futile". We disagree.
We acknowledge the support of Crs Weatherall, MacTavish, Brown, Butcher and Collins who have individually responded in a positive way to our campaign. But this cannot replace the co-ordinated top level response that is needed.
In closing, our meeting last night noted that failure to take this issue seriously would mean that we would be raising this issue in next year's Council elections and if necessary campaigning against those representatives who did not take on board their communities wishes.
Yours faithfully
Victor Billot
On behalf Campaign to Save Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank
PO Box 339

The campaign to Save Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank is ramping up its efforts to stop the proposed closure of our post office on 23 June.
A demonstration has been called for 12.30pm Friday 17 June outside the Civic Centre in the Octagon, Dunedin.
The purpose of the demonstration is to call for the Dunedin City Council led by the Mayor Dave Cull to up their efforts to save the landmark post office.
Campaign spokesperson Victor Billot says the Mayor has been invited today in an open letter to receive a small delegation from the group at Friday's event.
"We will be asking the Mayor to demand a meeting with New Zealand Post to deliver the message that their decision is against the interests of Dunedin, and not accept their fob offs."
No response has been received to this morning's invitation to the Mayor but the campaign was hopeful that there would be a positive answer.
Mr Billot says that New Zealand Post had sent a senior manager along to a public meeting in Auckland to take on board community concern at the closure of the Grey Lynn post office, but the same manager had declined to come to Dunedin to meet with NZ Post customers or the Mayor.
He says the protest action was needed to activate the city leadership.
"The Dunedin ratepayers at our meeting were very concerned that the Dunedin City Council was not taking a strong and united stand on behalf of us all."
"The DCC have to back Dunedin, with all their resources and influence, that our rates pay for."
Mr Billot says several individual councillors have been supportive, but there was a lack of organized top level support.
"What is the point of having economic development strategies if we can't keep a major post office open?"
Mr Billot says another event earlier in the week attended by the Mayor and councillors was described as being about "spatial planning" and future urban design for Dunedin.
He says it is good the city is concerned about the long term, but there seemed to be a lack of action on pressing short term issues.
"The spatial planning issue we have at the moment is there is going to be a big space in the Exchange where our Post Office is, unless the City Council gets its act together."
The campaign is also being backed by the Otago Chamber of Commerce and Unions Otago.
Media release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday 13 June 2011
The Save Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank campaign is lifting up a gear with a string of public events to defend "our post office."
More events are planned after today's lunchtime event, when New Zealand Post customers will join the queue and buy a stamp at Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank in the Exchange at 12.30pm to show their support.
Hundreds more petition signatures have been gathered over the last couple of weeks, since the first batch of over 2000 signatures was posted to NZ Post chief executive Brian Roche.
The campaign has now called a public meeting to be held at 7pm on Tuesday 14 June 2011 at the Alexander McMillan Room, Dunedin Community House, Moray Place, Dunedin.
Save Dunedin Post Shop and Kiwibank campaign spokesperson Victor Billot says local customers were concerned and outraged over the lack of interest from head office management.
"New Zealand Post sent a management representative along to a public meeting in Auckland, yet refused to have a manager collect a 2000 signature petition in Dunedin. Is Dunedin too far away?"
Mr Billot says it appeared New Zealand Post CEO Brian Roche was distracted from his duties.
"We have not yet had any personal contact with Mr Roche. We were told he was overseas at a conference. Then he has his other job as Rugby World Cup chairman. He seems to have plenty of time for everything except listening to his NZ Post customers."
The campaign has been in contact with another campaign group in Auckland, fighting to save the historic Grey Lynn Post Shop and Kiwibank.
The groups were sharing information and working together.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I am very happy with the direction my sons school is headed. There has been change in leadership over the past couple of years and feel the new leadership is great! Teachers show a great deal of concern for their students needs. The principal is fantastic and has worked with me in many ways. I can't wait to see what events are planned this year to give our community the chance to see all the positive things in action! Thank you Mr. Durham for creating a safe, fun, respectful and disciplined environment for my child to grow and develop in!
I myself attended this school and now both of my children do. I moved back into this school district when my son was ready to start school. This is an excellent school. The teachers are all great and make an effort to help each child as much as possible. The school could use some work but it is due to lack of funding. However there is no lack of educational ability by the teachers that my children have had so far. I love this school and would not send my kids anywhere else!
LJES tries very hard to be a good school. But it seems that everything that they try comes off as unprofessional and sort of thrown together at the last minute. The office staff could use some training in showing more kindness the the children themselves. The school seems to have a lack of funding issue which may have a lot to do with their sort of 'thrown together' atmosphere. We have an excellent teacher for our child who truly excells with the children. I think overall the teachers do a good job. I feel that the negative appearance of the school can be blamed on the county/state. LJES does not have adequate music and art classes. They seem to combine music, art and then science and math. I think they would do better with more funding.
Wonderful school with a Excellent Principal... My children have excelled highly in this school.... can't say enough wonderful things about this school... If I ever move from this district I will tranfer my child back to this school
A very good school for any child to attend. Small class size and great teachers.
