ST. MARYS - The St. Marys Area High School swim and dive team held their last meet before the halfway mark when they met the DuBois Beavers at home on Thursday night. The evening was not short on excitement, as it took until the very last event to determine the winner of the girls' meet, with the Lady Dutch falling short by only four points with a final score of 92-88. The boys didn't need to win the final event, but still managed to bring the crowd to their feet with a closely contested 400 freestyle relay race that ended with a Dutchmen win to bring the final tally to 111-74 over the Beavers.
The Lady Dutch had a stellar night of swimming despite coming up short of a win. Steph Buerk was the first individual event winner with her season best time in the 500-yard freestyle. Later in the evening, Emma Daghir and Kylee Proudfit took top honors in the 100-yard breaststroke with their 1-2 placements while achieving top times in the race.
The relay teams were successful, clinching two of three of the races. The 200-yard medley relay of Brittany Orr, Daghir, Michaela Rupprecht and Proudfit won the first event, as did the 200-yard freestyle relay of Daghir, Proudfit, Megan Barber and Buerk. The foursome is less than two seconds away from a school record as a result.
Second-place finishers included Buerk in the 200-yard freestyle, Proudfit in the 200-yard individual medley, Daghir in the 50-yard freestyle, Rupprecht in the 100-yard butterfly, Barber in the 100-yard freestyle, Orr in the 100-yard backstroke and the 400-yard freestyle relay team of Rupprecht, Barber, Orr and Buerk.
"We had some nice time drops and personal bests out of our girls tonight," said Coach Mark DeMuro. "The meet was exciting and fun. It would have been nice to walk away with a win, but we saw what we wanted to see tonight and it was all good."
The Dutchmen, on the other hand, had an easier time with things. The evening was capped with a very exciting 400 freestyle relay swim which included Alex Renwick, Thomas Murmann, Ryan Struble and Jeffrey Moore. The Beavers gave the Dutch a run, but Moore held his own in the final leg to capture the event by a touch. Moore was equally impressive in the 500-yard freestyle, where he won the event with a career best time, as well as anchoring the 200-yard freestyle relay to another first-place position. The remaining members of the relay were Corey Koss, Ryan Struble and Matt Hoffman. Struble also had a personal best and a win in the 100-yard freestyle, as did Koss in the 100-yard backstroke. Hoffman also was an individual winner in the 100-yard breaststroke. The 200-yard medley relay of Koss, Hoffman, Renwick and Murmann were also victorious.
Justin Huey had an impressive win in diving, with over 200 points for his six dives.
Second-place finishers included Koss in the 200-yard freestyle, Hoffman in the 200-yard individual medley, Moore in the 50-yard freestyle, Jake Burns in diving, Renwick in the 100-yard butterfly and Murmann in the 100-yard freestyle.
"We switched things up a little tonight and the guys delivered," noted Coach DeMuro. "They had a good time with it, but still stayed focused enough to get the job done."
The team will travel to Brookville next Thursday, Febr. 3 to kick off the second half of the dual meet schedule.

Do you see what I (tried to do) there?
I'm not sure if anyone is watching the Bears VS. Packers. Please humor me and consider this Dolphin related for 30 minutes Mods -- we traded Brandon Marshall for two third round picks. And so many people want to hammer the Dolphins for doing so. By the way, Brandon Marshall was one of my favorite players and I bought his jersey last year. I also bought a Vontae Davis jersey in July, LOL.
I will not be buying a Ryan Tannehill jersey for obvious reasons.
Anyway -- Brandon Marshall missed a TD, and lazily allowed an INT right in front of him. He IS drawing double teams out there, but it's not like some sort of light went on over the offseason.
He's a physical freak, who drops the ball when it counts.

Written by acclaimed playwright Catherine Johnson, based on the songs of ABBA, _Mama Mia_ is one of Broadway's most popular productions. The play, which has grossed over $2 billion dollars worldwide, has garnered the approval of both critics and audiences across the globe. The fictional story of a bride-to-be in search of her biological father features some of ABBA's most popular songs, such as _Super Trouper_, _Lay All Your Love On Me_, _Dancing Queen_, _Knowing Me, Knowing You_, _Take A Chance On Me_, _Thank You for the Music_, _Money, Money, Money_ and _The Winner Takes It All_. Those looking for a fun, upbeat night in the theater can find **Mama Mia tickets** available at seatgeek.com.
'Mamma Mia!:' Wielding the Power of ABBA For Broadway's Best Sing-Along
Blame it on the tenaciously upbeat tunes of Swedish group ABBA: they get the audience to its feet, they make camp the most unironic fun since The Rocky Horror Picture Show, they even manage to transform paternity confusion into a cause for jazz hands and kumbaya togetherness.

"Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson!"
The chant boomed throughout the Corning Activities Center gymnasium Saturday at the Class 1A District 7 wrestling tournament.
But, to fully understand why the crowd that included fans from 17 different schools backed East Union senior 170-pounder Bryson Kinyon so strongly, we must first take a step back and revisit last year's Class 1A district wrestling tournament.
Kinyon defeated the top-seeded wrestler at 152 pounds in the opening round of the 2012 Class 1A district wrestling tournament, but in the process, broke his thumb.
"I thought, 'man, my thumb hurts,'" Kinyon said. "After the match, I got off and my thumb was about twice the size it was supposed to be. I lost the championship match 2-1, and saw there was a wrestleback, but just didn't have any fight left in me."
The injury left Kinyon, who has dreamed of making the state wrestling tournament since he was a child, heartbroken.
"It was horrible," he said. "Worst feeling in the world."
The injury, and seeing a berth in the state tournament slip away, drove Kinyon to become even better this year.
Kinyon enters the state tournament with a record of 44-1 this season, with his only loss coming to Class 2A fifth-rated 160-pounder Trevor Frain of Creston/Orient-Macksburg.
He also broke the East Union single-season pins record, previously set in 1996-97 by Thomas Bradley, who had 29 pins. Kinyon enters the state tournament with 34 pins this season.
"I think, really, a lot of it has been from that moment," Kinyon said. "I worked all summer on the roof (summer job) and built up some endurance. I don't wear down as fast as I used to. It's just been in the back of my mind all year. I want to make it to state so bad. This year, I've been hungry for it."
"Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson!"
Bounce back to Saturday's meet in Corning, as Kinyon wrestled Guthrie Center's Austin Laabs for the fourth time in four weeks with the District 7 championship on the line.
As other wrestlers competed in their matches, cheerleaders from their teams sat matside, pounding out beats on the mat and cheering every step of the way throughout their matches.
But when it came time for Kinyon's match, there were no cheerleaders since East Union does not have a cheerleading program.
As Kinyon took to the mat for the championship match, something strange happened.
Suddenly, cheerleaders from Nodaway Valley, Corning, West Central Valley and Martensdale-St. Marys swarmed the edge of the mat, sat down, and began cheering in an ultimate sign of respect.
"Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson! Let's go Bryson!"
Before he knew it, the entire crowd, except for the Guthrie Center section, chimed in as well.
"The first time I saw the cheerleaders, I saw Corning and Nodaway Valley," Kinyon said. "I thought, 'what are they doing here? Their kid isn't wrestling.' They started cheering and my name came up. They were cheering for me."
When Kinyon pinned Laabs in 4:34, the crowd popped with excitement as Kinyon pointed to the East Union section in the stands.
As he walked off the mat, he was nearly mobbed by people wanting to congratulate him on the victory.
"I was really happy. I've been waiting for that moment since I was real little," Kinyon said. "I was happy so many people showed up from our school to experience it with me. It was just lots of emotion."
Kinyon said he believes he's received so much support simply because he is kind to everyone, isn't cocky and will shake anyone's hand who wants to shake his.
"I just think I'm very well-respected for trying not to be cocky and going out and talking to people," Kinyon said. "I have so many people now that I recognize their face, but don't have a name for them, just coming up and shaking my hand and saying congrats."
State tournament
Kinyon's father, Steve, who is the head wrestling coach for East Union, said it was an exciting moment when Kinyon won the district championship, qualifying for the state tournament.
"I was excited for him, because he deserves it. He's worked hard for a long time," Steve said. "I was excited for our crowd to be there. I was excited for him, as a coach and as a dad. You're proud as heck as a dad, and, as a coach, you're glad that he got through."
Even though he's making his first appearance in the state tournament, Kinyon feels confident going into it.
"One match at a time, but I'd love to win it," he said. "I think I got a really good draw. I think I have the less stacked side of the two sides of the bracket. Hopefully, I can come out on top and make it to the championship match and wrestle Saturday night."
But one thing's for sure — neither Kinyon nor his father will forget the amount of support he's received in his journey to the state tournament.
"We're thankful for the people who have supported him," Steve said. "We just appreciate their support. We appreciate our fans, and we appreciate the support of all the surrounding communities."

Most people go to college so they can eventually get a higher-paying and
satisfying career. But to get to that point, most students need to work
at least in the summers if not year-round. These jobs are important for
the combination of money, experience, work ethic, and relationships they
provide. When you graduate, however, you're ready for a career—not a
job. Your undergraduate work experience will help you develop the skills
and connections that are critical to securing a career after college.
The world of work you encounter, both part-time jobs and careers, holds
many challenges and rewards. By being prepared, you can be sure to
As both a student and an employee, you are a valuable member of our
campus community. We rely heavily on Student Employees to help provide a
fast and efficient service to the student body. We hope you enjoy your
experience working at Saint Martin's and that you have an opportunity to
develop work habits, skills, and contacts that will serve you well in
your professional life.
Determining your employment needs
Students on campus may be awarded through their financial aid
package a work study grant. It can be one of two types, federal
or state work study. Each requires different actions and support
from Financial Aid and the Career Center. Students that do not
qualify for work study grants will be seeking non-work study (or
general) employment.
Federal work study
This program is funded through the federal government, and the
award appears on the financial aid package if a student has demonstrated
financial need. This is awarded to students that are in their freshman
or sophomore year in college. This funding does not credit the student
account, so it should not be counted toward the bill when trying to
determine the balance due for any given semester. This funding is
available for students to earn by working a part time job on campus.
Jobs can range from working in the athletic department, to working in
academic or administrative offices. Additional information is available
on Federal Work Study.
State work study
This program is funded through the Higher Education Board of
Washington. This is awarded to students that are in their junior or
senior year in college and has a need for financial assistance. This is
a program allows students to gain job experience in the field they would
like to work in after graduation. With the state work study program,
students at SMU are hired by off campus employers who are reimbursed by
the state for a percentage of the wages paid to the student. This
funding does not credit the student account, so it should not be counted
toward the bill when trying to determine the balance due for any given
semester. The funding is available to students to earn by working a part
time job off campus. Additional information is available on
State Work Study.
International students
International students are eligible for on-campus
employment only. Additional information is available on
international student
employment on-campus.
Financial aid support
All of the funding and paper work is handled through Financial
Aid. Once a student has been awarded work study, depending on the type,
and a job has been secured, financial aid requires additional paperwork.
If you have any addition questions about your grant or paper work please
contact financial aid in 245, at
or call 360-438-4397 or toll free 800-368-8803.
Career Center support
The Career Center partners with
employers when it comes to connecting with students about part-time
jobs, full-time jobs, and internships. We facilitate these connections
in a number of different ways—job postings, career fairs, on-campus
interviewing, and more. All on-campus and off-campus jobs are posted on
Saints4Hire. With State work study there are many companies that don't
have work study contracts but if a student is interested in working for
them we can help make contacts. Most on-campus and off-campus employers
ask for a resume to apply. We are more than happy to offer our services
to help create or edit a resume or cover letter.
Please note: Being awarded work study doesn't
guarantee a job. Both programs students are responsible for researching
and securing employment. Once employed students are paid a paycheck by
their employer and pay dates vary from organization to organization.
This money will not be applied toward the bill; it can be used by the
student for personal and miscellaneous expenses. Students are not
required to use the work study awarded, but this funding will not be
replaced by any other financial aid if declined or simply not used

Is God the Creator?
Does BioLogos believe that God is the creator? Yes, all Christians believe this; the question is, how did God create?

Does BioLogos believe that God is the creator? Yes, all Christians believe this; the question is, how did God create?
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
A video greeting from BioLogos President Deborah Haarsma
In this series, Ryan Pettey offers several clips from his powerful documentary "From the Dust". This feature-length film is divided up into various sections, each of which wrestles with the difficult problems that arise when reconciling Scripture with the theory of evolution. A light of hope dawns on the science-faith conversation, however, as scientists and theologians engage in honest dialogue about tough issues such as the interpretation of Genesis, the nature of the Fall, and the idea of random design. Their profound insights are sure to enlighten all minds, raise deeper questions, and provoke new thought.
These commercials were produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and feature BioLogos Senior Scholar Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright. They're a great introduction to our work here at BioLogos.
These commercials were produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and feature BioLogos Senior Scholar Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright. They're a great introduction to our work here at BioLogos.
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
As he endeavored to learn more, David was intrigued by Francis Collins book The Language of God because Francis did not present evolution as a rival theory to Christian faith, but as something that described God's method of creation.
What are the best ways to spark productive conversations about science and faith? Certainly there are books, articles, blogs (like this one), and podcasts. But there are particular advantages to using film.
In today's video, Brian McLaren discusses the value of considering Scripture in light of the cultures that surrounded them. The Biblical writers were aware of the myths of the power nations that surrounded them, but flipped their stories on their heads to reveal truth about God.
To understand and apply Genesis 1 correctly, we have to consider issues of genre and intention. Too often these chapters are read as if they present a purely straightforward historical and even scientific account of cosmic and human origins.
In these two brief video Conversations, John Walton discusses the problem of trying to integrate ancient scripture with our modern worldview.
In this video, John Walton talks about ancient myth and how we might better understand it if we think about its intended functionality—that is, myths were a way to explain a culture's origin and universal significance though they lacked the advances of scientific discovery.
In this video Conversation, N.T. Wright emphasizes the importance of understanding the context of biblical texts in order to know whether to read them as literal or metaphorical narratives.
In this video conversation, Pete Enns sheds light on the key difference between the ancient and modern mind with regard to interpretation of texts. A literal understanding of Genesis from an ancient mindframe would not necessarily be the same as what we now think of as a literal reading.
In this video Conversation, N.T. Wright explores how the ancient Jewish audience read Genesis before and up to the time that Jesus arrived. He asserts that readers of Genesis today who focus simply on the number of days of creation and whether there is evidence in the text pointing to an old or new earth—are in effect not reading the complete text.
John Walton offers some important reminders in this video with regard to how we should approach a reading of the book of Genesis. While it is a text that is written for us—in the sense that it was written for all people in all times and places—it was not written to us.

You don't have to take the 911 onto the racetrack. But you can, more so than ever, because dynamic engine mounts are now included as part of the Sport Chrono Package.
The electronically controlled system minimises the oscillations and vibrations of the entire drivetrain, especially the engine, and combines the benefits of a hard or soft engine mounting arrangement.
A hard engine mounting delivers optimum dynamic performance because it offers the highest degree of handling precision possible. Soft engine mounts, on the other hand, minimise oscillations and vibrations. While comfort is improved on uneven road surfaces, this comes at the expense of dynamic performance.
Our engineers have solved this problem by enabling the engine mounts to adapt their stiffness and damping properties to changes in driving style and road surface conditions. This has been achieved by use of a fluid with magnetic properties in interaction with an electrically generated field. For the driver, the results are tangible. Handling is perceptibly more stable under load change conditions and in fast corners. Whenever a less assertive driving style is adopted, the dynamic engine mounts provide a higher level of comfort.

The Elk County Catholic Lady Crusader volleyball team raised their dual-match record to 7-0 on the season with a 3-0 victory over the Johnsonburg Ramettes last night at the ECCHS gym.
The Lady Crusaders won the first set by a 25-23 score. They took the second set 25-18 and won the third set by a 25-8 margin.
"We were slow to make adjustments but once we did we played well," said ECCHS coach Diane Gies.
"The last game tonight was the best we played both offensively and defensively. Now we have to keep working to get better," added Gies.
In the first set, the score went back and forth, with neither team holding more than a two-point lead. Late in the set, the Ramettes were up 22-12 when Elk got the serve back with Marissa Cunningham serving. A kill by Cunningham tied the score at 22. Elk made it 23-22 off a block. Jessie Ginther recorded a kill for ECC, 24-22. Brittany Watts made the score 24-23 off a block. Johnsonburg hit the ball out of bounds, giving ECC the 25-23 win.
The second set saw Taylor DaCanal give ECC the 5-0 lead as she recorded an ace, with Kristie Wehler and Ginther both recording a kill. The rest of the set went back and forth as Elk maintained a five-to-seven- point lead. The Ramettes were able to close the gap to three points on a point by Watts. Elk got the serve back on a block by Carli Schneider, 19-15. Elk Catholic went on to win the set by a 25-18 score.
With Cunningham serving, the Lady Crusaders opened a 7-0 lead. Cunningham had two aces in that stretch, while Schneider had two kills and a block and Wehler had a kill. Elk got the serve back, leading 8-1. With Wehler serving, they opened a 12-1 lead. Ginther had a kill and Schneider a block. With Elk leading 13-2, Camille Smithbauer served five straight points. Anna VanEerden had three kills and Schneider one. Johnsonburg was called in the net, 19-3. The teams traded sideouts, 20-4. Hayley DaCanal served an ace and Elk got a point on a hit out of bounds. A tip by Watts made it 22-5. With Sam Bevacqua serving, ECC hit the ball out of bounds and Watts recorded a kill. ECC got the serve back leading 24-8 on a kill by VanEerden. With VanEerden serving, Taylor DaCanal recorded a kill, giving the Lady Crusaders the 25-8 win.
"The first game was one of our better efforts. We passed well and hit the ball well," said Johnsonburg coach Bill Shuey.
"The second game we got behind and you can't get behind on good teams. But we're coming along, we'll get better," added Shuey.
Taylor DaCanal led ECC with 10 service points, while Marissa Cunningham had nine and Hayley DaCanal eight. Jessie Ginther recorded eight kills, while Anna VanEerden had eight and Carli Schneider four to go along with her four blocks.
Brittany Watts had five service points for the Ramettes, while Chelsea Benson had three kills and two blocks.
In junior varsity action, Elk Catholic won in two sets, 25-7 and 25-11.
Elk Catholic, now 7-0, will be off until next Tuesday when they host the DuBois Area Lady Beavers. Junior varsity begins at 6 p.m., followed by varsity.
Johnsonburg, now 2-4 overall, will travel to Punxsutawney on Thursday. Junior varsity action begins at 6 p.m., with varsity to follow.

Name: Late stage assay provider results from the probe development effort to identify inhibitors of Protein Arginine Deiminase 4 (PAD4): colorimetric biochemical substrate assay to assess potency of HTS hits against PAD1-4.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic and progressive autoimmune disorder that affects about one percent of the US population (1). Existing therapies treat the symptoms of the disease but not the underlying cause, and are associated with numerous side effects (2). The activity of Protein Arginine Deiminase 4 (PAD4), one of four known active PAD isozymes, is increased in RA; where it is thought to generate a subset of antigens that the immune system recognizes as foreign (3). Genetic, serological, and biochemical evidence suggests that dysregulated PAD4, and potentially PAD2, activities play a role in both the onset and progression of RA (1). Cl-amidine, a compound that specifically inactivates PAD4, reduces disease severity and incidence in the collagen-induced model of arthritis (CIA) (unpublished observations). However, because Cl-amidine inhibits all of the PAD isozymes with equipotency, it is unclear whether the observed reduction in disease severity is due to the inhibition of single or multiple PADs. This is particularly relevant because both PAD 2 and 4 are overexpressed in the joints of patients with RA (4). Thus, the identification of PAD selective inhibitors would facilitate the characterization of their individual contributions to the onset and progression of RA and represent a promising novel therapeutic approach for RA.

Panel Information
§ Panel component ID.
Assay Overview:
The purpose of this assay is to determine whether cherry picked HTS hit compounds can inhibit PADs 1-4 using a substrate-based assay. In this assay, the target enzyme (PAD1, 2, 3 or 4) is pre-incubated with test compound followed by addition of substrate Na-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester HCl (BAEE). The percent activity remaining is determined by measuring the amount of citrulline produced using a standard colorimetric absorbance assay. Test compounds that act as PAD inhibitors will prevent the production of citrulline.
Protocol Summary:
Recombinant PAD1 (Assay 1; 0.2 uM), PAD2 (Assay 2; 0.5 uM), PAD3 (Assay 3; 0.5 uM), or PAD4 (Assay4; 0.2 uM) in assay buffer (50 mM NaCl, 10 mM CaCl2, 2 mM DTT, 100 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.6) was treated with test compound (10 uM) or DMSO for 15 minutes at 37 C. Substrate BAEE (10 mM) was added, and the reaction was incubated for 15 minutes at 37 C in 60 uL total reaction volume. The reaction was quenched by flash freezing in liquid nitrogen, and a color-developing reagent for detection of the enzymatic byproduct citrulline (COLDER; 200 uL), which consists of solution A (80 mM diacetyl monoxime and 2 mM thiosemicarbazide) and solution B (3 M H3PO4, 6 M H2SO4, and 2 mM NH4Fe(SO4)2) in a 1:3 ratio, was added. This mixture was incubated for 30 minutes at 95 C and the absorbance was measured at 540 nm. The amount of product produced was determined by comparison to a standard curve with known concentrations of citrulline.
%_Inhibition = 1 - ( ( ABS_Test - Blank ) / Correction_Factor ) / ( ( ABS_DMSO - Blank) / Correction_Factor )
ABS_Test is defined as absorbance at 540 nm for target treated with test compound.
ABS_DMSO is defined as absorbance at 540 nm for target treated with DMSO.
Blank is defined as the absorbance of a blank sample at 540 nm.
Correction_Factor is defined as the correction factor generated from a standard curve of known concentrations of citrulline.
PubChem Activity Outcome and Score:
The following applies to each panel in this assay:
Compounds with greater than or equal to 50% inhibition were considered active. Compounds with less than 50% inhibition were considered inactive.
The reported PubChem Activity Score has been normalized to 100% observed inhibition. Negative % inhibition values are reported as activity score zero.
PAD1 Score: The PubChem Activity Score range for inactive compounds is 100-0. There are no active compounds.
PAD2 Score: The PubChem Activity Score range for inactive compounds is 100-0. There are no active compounds.
PAD3 Score: The PubChem Activity Score range for inactive compounds is 100-0. There are no active compounds.
PAD4 Score: The PubChem Activity Score range for inactive compounds is 100-0. There are no active compounds.
Overall Outcome and Score:
The overall outcome was active if the compound was active in at least one panel, inactive otherwise.
The overall score is 0 if the compound was inactive, otherwise the score is taken as the fraction of panels where the compound is active, multiplied by 100.
The PubChem Activity Score range for inactive compounds is 0-0. There are no active compounds.

Meet Patience Brewster: designer, artist, children's picture book author
Patience Brewster (her real name) was born in Plymouth, Massachusetts to a large family of eight. She describes the horses, dogs, cats, chickens, pigs and cows that populated the fields surrounding her home as her "pals" and talks at length about how she was, and is, inspired by them.
From an early age, drawing was her passion—a practice she continues today. By the time she married in 1977, she had created a towering portfolio of original artworks. At the suggestion of her husband, she presented a series of her illustrations to publishers in New York and, at age 25, signed her first children's book contract. Over the next 25 years, Patience went on to illustrate 35 books for both children and adults. She continued to provide illustrations to several greeting card publishers and painted for exhibitions; her subsequent shows helped to define her style even further.
In 2000, she licensed a collection of holiday illustrations to create what would become the renowned line of unique ornaments and gifts she called Krinkles—and they sold out immediately. This astonishing success encouraged Patience to launch her own greeting card company in 2002, which was met with a warm welcome from its inception.
In 2009, she began production of her signature ornaments and gifts. Her objective was to create a smaller line of handmade and hand-painted sculptures, which she could nurture from drawing all the way to store shelves. Working directly with craftspeople, sculptors, and painters, from start to finish, she creates the whimsical, one-of-a-kind gifts and collectibles coveted by Grandin Road customers today.
Patience Brewster continues to be the lead artist, creating every single image for the pieces her two companies produce. She works with her husband, her daughter, and a small team of dedicated employees, and resides in the Finger Lakes region of New York.
From her Dash Away Reindeer and Elves to her playful Nativity Scene and Nutcracker characters, Patience Brewster's original artworks come to life in many forms (ornaments, stationary, linens, and more).

|Using Google Maps to Find GPS Coordinates
This evening I stumbled across how to use Google Maps to determine GPS coordinates.
I did it by doing something I had never done in years of clicking the Link button on a Google Map - I actually read the link. Usually I'm busy getting the link to put into an entry in the blog. I never read the jumble of letters for heaven's sake! I'm right in the middle of trying to get something done dammit.
But this time I stopped long enough to look at it - which comes dangerously close to proof reading.
As I did, it dawned on me that some numbers in the middle of the link looked similar to GPS coordinates. Could it be? After a minute or two of copy and paste activity, I had my Duh-Oh! moment. They ARE coordinates! Who knew?
Well actually, I bet a lot people know. It's probably another example of the rest of world way out in front of me and I'm back here in the mountains of Vermont sucking wind.
So, for my fellow in-the-weeds, off-the-grid woodchucks, I proudly present how to find GPS coordinates from Google Maps . . .
Go to maps.google.com, enter an address in the search bar and click Enter
On the next page, right click the red balloon on the map. In the popup, click the last item, Center Map Here. (Or right click elsewhere on the map if the red balloon is not where you want the coordinates.)
In the upper right part of the blue bar, click Link.
In the window under "Paste link in email or IM" you will see what looks like a tragic explosion in a type setting shop:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en& geocode=&q=94+pine+street+duxbury+vt&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=30.130288,56.601563&ie=UTF8&ll=44.295457,-72.771957&spn =0.006635,0.013819& z=16&iwloc=addr
'Bout two thirds of the way through all that are the letters UTF8&ll and then the = sign. The numbers immediately following the = sign . . . 44.295457, -72.771957 . . . are the coordinates for my inn at 94 Pine Street, Duxbury, Vermont, the street address I entered in the Google Maps search window back in step 1.
You will probably notice that some other numbers in the Link code are coordinates. You are correct. It's weird but the first is for Coffeeville Kansas and second is, I kid you not, Baghin Iran. What's going on with that, I have no idea. And I really don't have time to mess around with it now but I'd love to some other time.
At any rate, if you ever need coordinates for your travels, that's how you can use Google Maps to help. Give it a try and email me to let me know how it works out for y'all.

Has anyone had problems with their RFC-E foot control producing less than the set peak welding amperage?
I bought my Miller Foot Control model RFC-E to use with a Maxstar 91 years ago, but rarely used it, replacing it with an RFCS-14HD because I liked the heel stop on the newer pedal. I brought the RFC-E out of storage and attached it to my Miller Dynasty 200 DX recently and find I can not produce the top amperage set when welding; for example if I set the peak amperage to 55 amps, I can produce only about 28 amps while welding with the pedal floored.
After several frustrating runs, I measured the resistance of my old trusty RFC-14, the RFCS-14HD, and the RFC-E. The RFC-14 and RFCS-14HD produce a resistance range of 0 to 1K ohms while the RFC-E produces 0 to about 700 ohms. I took the RFC-E apart and adjusted its internal gear on the potentiometer by a tooth then put it back together and tried it again. Now the arc comes on too hot, but does go all the way to full set amperage.
The RFC-E's trouble appears to be a design problem. The full travel of the pedal does not rotate the potentiometer through its full 0-1000 ohm range.
Is anyone aware of a recall on this product or a repair kit that corrects this problem? The owner's manual does not show internal parts. Elsewhere on the web I found a post saying this model foot control was OEM'ed by Miller from Linemaster Inc. Any truth in that?

It's an old 1993 style pedal, that apparently never caught on, so it was discontinued. Maybe its just worn out,

The RFC-E is virtually new
Hello Cruizer and thank you for your interest and advice on my problem.
The RFC-E is virtually new. When I had trouble getting full amperage on the Maxstar 91 years ago, I put the RFC-E aside and fixed the problem with money by buying an RFCS-14 (that I disliked until I upgraded it to a RFCS-14HD), but at least I did get full output and was able to finish the field job I was doing at the time. My Miller factory rep offered to buy back the RFC-E at the time because he said there were known problems, but I decided to hang on to it because I liked the its small form factor and sturdy cable (which the replacement RFCS-14 didn't have).
I've been chasing the problem with an ohmmeter, comparing the signals from my RFC-E to both the RFCS-14HD and RFC-14 -- they don't match. I used the description in the Miller Owner's Manual of the pin-out and I found a handy description you wrote up on building a 14-pin extension cord that was easier to understand. I cut/pasted it just below:
.....Anyhow a basic cable your after would be a 16/6 SOOW
.....A - 24vac
.....B - Contactor Control
.....C - Control pot input
.....D - Control pot common
.....E - Control pot wiper
.....G - 24 Vac common
.....This will be your basic all round cable
C->D resistance is 1075 ohms. The internal pot is marked 1K ohm and is a Clarostat type J. Clearly the pot resistance is about 8% too high.
I don't know which pins the welding power supply is reading E->C or E->D. Is the welding amperage proportional to the resistance or inversely proportional to the resistance?
On the RFC-E I'm measuring E->C, which is 1070 ohms with the pedal in the off position and 170 ohms with the pedal floored, E->D, which is 3.6 ohms with the pedal in the off position and 965 ohms with the pedal floored.

More about Miller 14-pin foot controls
Well I have certainly learned a lot more about Miller and Miller-compatible foot controls than I thought I would ever know investigating how exactly a foot control signals the welder's amperage control circuits.
Thank you to everybody that took time to offer advice. The folks at Linemaster Switch Inc and Miller were both very forthcoming with help and advice.
Linemaster did in fact manufacture the RFC-E foot control for use mainly with the Miller Econotig. It uses a white plastic rack to drive a pinion gear on the Clarostat 1K ohm pot. After carefully measuring the resistance between pin C (10V reference voltage) and pin E (potentiometer wiper signal sent back to the welder; 0V= min amperage, 10V=max amperage), the trouble is cause by the RFC-E rack and pinion gears not rotating the pot shaft though its full rotation. The RFC-E's control of the welder's output amperage (tested on a Dynasty 200, and Synchrowave 350) is not perfect, but is much better. By shimming the heel end of the plastic rack to travel a little farther toward minimum output, and adjusting the pinion gear set-screw on the pot shaft using the ohmmeter to zero ohms when the pedal is floored to maximum output; it now starts a little hot when the pedal is just depressed, but does reach full welding current output when the pedal hits the floor.

A call about an armed man and an "officer down" on Wednesday afternoon prompted more than a dozen Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers and local authorities to descend on a local stretch of the Ohio Turnpike.
Anthony Strenger, 19, of Chicago, was charged with felonious escape of custody, vandalism to state property, assault on an officer, carrying a concealed weapon, resisting arrest and drug possession, as well as misdemeanor marijuana possession.
At about 4 p.m., a trooper from the Highway Patrol's Milan post pulled over a vehicle driven by Kinlawyed Hendrix, 26, of Chicago, for speeding. The vehicle was driving in the westbound lanes of the Ohio Turnpike in Berlin Heights, and it was pulled over just west of Humm Road, Highway Patrol Lt. Brett Gockstetter said. When the trooper approached the rented Chevrolet Malibu, he smelled marijuana near the car. A second trooper arrived at the scene to assist, and a search of the front-seat passenger, Strenger, yielded suspected cocaine, marijuana, and a small semi-automatic pistol tucked into his waistband, Gockstetter said.
Strenger was handcuffed, but he then began to resist arrest, and he allegedly spit on Trooper Bryan Holden. Troopers successfully led him into their cruiser, and they returned to the Malibu to continue their search. Strenger, meanwhile, managed to kick out the cruiser's backseat window, out of which he then tumbled. Troopers ran back to the cruiser, and Strenger apparently reconsidered his approach — he tried to climb back through the window and back into the cruiser, Gockstetter said.
He then allegedly kicked and hit troopers, who held him at bay as they waited for backup to arrive. Troopers from the Milan, Sandusky, Fremont, Norwalk and Elyria posts converged on the scene, as did Erie County deputies and Berlin Heights police. Strenger was taken to the Erie County jail, where he remains without bond.
As of Wednesday night, Hendrix and the vehicle's second passenger were not charged with any crimes.

The full spectrum of essential vitamins and minerals support healthy development, strong immune function as well as emotional and mental vitality.* Research shows that one of the fundamental reasons for the decline in children's health and immunity is the decline in the nutritional content and value of their diet. Supplementing a child's diet a smart way to ensure that all nutritional needs are fulfilled.
Today's children face unprecedented challenges from two very important areas. On one hand, the nutritional value of the food we eat decreases as the nutritional content of the soil is depleted through time and modern farming methods. On the other hand, the rapid increase in environmental pollution and toxic burden creates an increased need for these nutrients - the vitamins and minerals that protect, nourish and sustain a child's natural, healthy development. Support your child's growth and development with this Multivitamin and Mineral formula.*
Directions for Use: For infants 6 months to 1 yr: 1 teaspoon daily. For children 1 to 4 yrs: 1-2 teaspoons daily. For children 4 to 12 yrs: 2-3 teaspoons daily.Shake well before use. Keep refrigerated after opening. Give directly or mix with your child's favorite drink.

A native of Greece who now makes Vienna her home, Marilena Leavitt has at least one aspect in common with her Greek contemporaries: She loves food. More than that, she loves to cook.
Not surprisingly, she got her first taste of the joys of the native Greek kitchen at home, in Greece. �My first experience was cooking Greek food,� she said. �Food plays a central role in daily life there. From that beginning, I branched out to explore Mediterranean cuisine.�
Those childhood food memories — particularly how her mother focused on meal planning and expressing her love for the family through her cooking — inspired her growing involvement with how to cook well. To bolster her skills, when she eventually moved to Italy from Greece, Leavitt attended a culinary school in Rome. And when she moved to the United States 5 years ago, she took an intensive 6-month culinary course—on classical cooking techniques and traditional French food—at Gaithersburg�s L�Academie de Cuisine.
Armed with practical culinary knowledge, Leavitt decided to launch private cooking classes in her own home. �When I moved to the States,� she says, �I found that many people use frozen food and face a big rush around 6 p.m. to put dinner on the table. As a result, there is not much meal planning, but it is so simple to plan ahead early in the day for easy and healthy meals.�
Leavitt�s small classes of six to eight students per session attracted people in her neighborhood. �I found out when people know each other and have friends, the classes are fun,� she said. �People are having a good time, and are learning along the way.� Eventually, and by popular request, Leavitt took these classes on the road, rotating them from house to house.
But about two years ago, Leavitt changed her primary venue, and became one of the teaching instructors at Vienna�s Culinaria Cooking School, with a program that features the healthful benefits of the Mediterranean diet.
Planning ahead certainly is important, she said, but providing healthful meals is central to Leavitt�s cooking philosophy. �The Mediterranean diet is really a lifestyle approach,� she said.
�What you eat and how you eat are priorities,� she said, adding that leisurely eating plus healthful ingredients are the core of the Mediterranean way of life. She notes that students are amazed at how simple it is to replace fast foods with healthier options, such as offering children fruit and nuts as between-meal snacks and substituting unhealthy fats with olive oil.
And what does Leavitt routinely serve her family? Typically, she uses whole-wheat breads, dark leafy greens, legumes weekly, fish routinely, and red meat only occasionally. �We always have fruit for dessert,� she said. �That is healthful and satisfying. We set aside time to savor every bit of food. Family time is very important.�

Ganglion cysts are noncancerous lumps that most commonly develop along the tendons or joints of your wrists or hands. They also may occur in the ankles and feet. Ganglion cysts are typically round or oval and are filled with a jelly-like fluid.
Small ganglion cysts can be pea-sized, while larger ones can be around an inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Ganglion cysts can be painful if they press on a nearby nerve. Their location can sometimes interfere with joint movement.
If your ganglion cyst is causing you problems, your doctor may suggest trying to drain the cyst with a needle. Removing the cyst surgically is also an option. But if you have no symptoms, no treatment is necessary. In many cases, the cysts go away on their own.
The lumps associated with ganglion cysts can be characterized by:
If you experience a noticeable lump or pain in your wrist, hand, ankle or foot, see your doctor. He or she can make a diagnosis and determine whether you need treatment.
It's not clear what causes a ganglion cyst to develop. It grows out of a joint or the lining of a tendon, looking like a tiny water balloon on a stalk, and seems to occur when the tissue that surrounds a joint or a tendon bulges out of place. Inside the cyst is a thick lubricating fluid similar to that found in joints or around tendons.
Factors that may increase your risk of ganglion cysts include:
You're likely to start by seeing your primary care doctor, although he or she may eventually refer you to a hand surgeon.
Before your appointment, you may want to write a list of answers to the following questions:
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions. Being ready to answer them may reserve time to go over any points you want to spend more time on. Your doctor may ask:
During the physical exam, your doctor may apply pressure to the cyst to test for tenderness or discomfort. He or she may try to shine a light through the cyst to determine if it's a solid mass or filled with fluid.
Your doctor might also recommend imaging tests — such as X-rays, ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) — to rule out other conditions, such as arthritis or a tumor. MRIs and ultrasounds also can locate hidden (occult) cysts.
A ganglion cyst diagnosis may be confirmed by aspiration, a process in which your doctor uses a needle and syringe to draw out (aspirate) the fluid in the cyst. Fluid from a ganglion cyst will be thick and clear or translucent.
Ganglion cysts are often painless, requiring no treatment. In fact, in many cases, doctors recommend a watch-and-wait approach. But if the ganglion cyst is causing pain or interfering with joint movement, your doctor may recommend:
To relieve pain, consider an over-the-counter pain reliever, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen (Aleve). In some cases, modifying your shoes or how you lace them can relieve the pain associated with ganglion cysts on your ankles or feet.
An old home remedy for a ganglion cyst consisted of "thumping" the cyst with a heavy object. This isn't a good solution because the force of the blow can damage surrounding structures in your hand or foot. Also, don't try to "pop" the cyst yourself by puncturing it with a needle. This is unlikely to be effective and can lead to infection.
