text: Wild West Discussion – February 2010 David Lauterborn 12/16/2009 4 Comments Wild horses are viewed by some people as living symbols of the Wild West and by others as nuisances, as the mustangs compete with livestock on the open range. What do you think of the Bureau of Land Management policy of keeping a set number of mustangs in the wild, while placing the remainder in holding pens and putting them up for adoption? 4 Responses len 3/10/2010 A reading of Howard Zinn's "people's history of United States" re-enforces this idea, If all people are thinking the same, there is NO thinking. greg michno is a member of a culture that seems unable or unwilling to go beyond what mommy an daddy told him and cannot relate to any other people save those who "think" the same as he does. Reply Steve McCarty 11/6/2011 I live in Oregon. From here they send out animal lovers to round up the mustangs. They get several hundred a season. Most are in pretty poor condition, but they do hold auctions. The animals usually sell for $150 or so. People who love animals buy them and put them in their back yard, thinging they will become pets, like the family mutt. Not so. Horses to be properly cared for are expensive to maintain. One owner ordered an employee to take out out back and shoot it. So the young fellow did, using his 9mm pistol. After the horse came to, it wandered off and was discovered starving and blind in one eye. The found the owner and tried the shooter. Animal cruelty. He was sentence to five years in prison, as I recall. Other people just turn the horses out, and being alone, they starve. Some just keep them in the pen and starve them to death. Morale of the story? They were probably better off on the open range. They don't really compete for forage. You seen them in the desert where there are no cattle. There are also donkey's out there. Some of the horses are Kiger Mustangs which are a unique breed of wild Oregon horses. They IMO should be left out there, as they have been for 500 years. They are some of the purest Spanish stock brought over here by the Conquistadores extant. Left on their own hook the wild horses survive for a few years and starve. Brought in they live for two or three years and then starve. What's the diff? Reply Fran Cook 3/13/2012 I think that nature and God was intended to guide, protect and care for the wild and always has. What is the big deal of letting nature do what nature does best. After all, we are NOT the smartest race ever. Look at the extinct species you can tell that. We are guilty of killing off the buffalo by the hundreds for about $1 a hide and the tounge…think on that one for a moment. If we had to do that to insure that we did not starve, which most people won't if they are industruious enough to plant, save and preserve, then it wouldn't be such a crime. Now I view it a crime to go out into some pretty unpopulated places to chase out the remaining wild herds of mustangs and burros. Quit. Reply Steve McCarty 3/13/2012 Buffalo hides sold for between $3 and $5 for good ones. It was a very poor hide that sold for a buck. Hunting buff was big money in those days. The hunters did not shoot more than they could skin. Wyatt Earp hunted alone, doing the skinning himself and made $2800 one year. He would kill about six a day. Large buffalo hunting companies might kill and process as many as 70. The southern herds were gone by 1872 and the northern by 1886. Indians also hunted buffalo for their tongues, hides etc. While they did have a use for all of the animal they only used what they needed at the time. Several species of bison were driven extinct. The buffalo is doing fine now. It still thrives on the plains, it does carry diseases that harm cattle, a fact that riles ranchers.

But it won't be a hindrance for the Scouting Movement to continue its mission. This year, our goal is to help our fellowmen to rise and to be prepared to any disasters. In order for us to perform these activities we are in need of TENTS and any kits for disaster preparedness campaign. This will be used for many purposes especially when we are conducting outdoor activities. We hope you will join us with this mission of providing enough information on disaster preparedness.

Evaluation of a pneumonia practice guideline in an interventional trial
ABSTRACT There are few available data to define the medically necessary duration of stay for patients hospitalized with pneumonia. Therefore, we investigated the safety and effectiveness of a practice guideline that provided information about switching patients from parenteral to oral antimicrobials and early hospital discharge. The study was a prospective controlled study with an alternate month design. The practice guideline was studied in 146 "low-risk" pneumonia patients hospitalized during a 22-month period. Medical care consistent with the practice guideline occurred in 64% and 76% of patients during control and intervention periods, respectively (p=0.15). There were no differences in patient outcomes in the control and intervention groups when measured 1 mo after hospital discharge, including hospital readmission rates, health-related quality of life, and patient satisfaction. Explicit and implicit review revealed that 98.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 95.1%, 99.8%) of low-risk patients would not have benefited from continued hospitalization after the fourth hospital day. The 30-d survival rate of the low-risk pneumonia patients was 99.3% (95% CI: 96.2%, 100%) and patient outcomes appeared to be favorable compared with previously published values. We conclude that duration of hospital stay was frequently consistent with the practice guideline in both study groups, and patient outcomes remained unchanged. The guideline will require additional testing before it can be recommended for use.

Article: Assessing the Impact of Continuous Quality Improvement on Clinical Practice: What It Will Take to Accelerate Progress[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The literature on continuous quality improvement (CQI) has produced some evidence, based on nonrandomized studies, that its clinical application can improve outcomes of care while reducing costs. Its effectiveness is enhanced by a nucleus of physician involvement, individual practitioner feedback, and a supportive organizational culture. The few randomized studies, however, suggest no impact of CQI on clinical outcomes and no evidence to date of organization-wide improvement in clinical performance. Further, most studies address misuse issues and avoid examining overuse or underuse of services. The clinical application of CQI is more likely to have a pervasive impact when it takes place within a supportive regulatory and competitive environment, when it is aligned with financial incentives, and when it is under the direction of an organizational leadership that is committed to integrating all aspects of the work.Milbank Quarterly 02/1998; 76(4):593-624, 510.

Article: A Multicenter Intervention to Improve the Care of Hospitalized Patients with Community- Acquired Pneumonia[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Objective: To assess process and outcome mea-sures before and after a multifaceted intervention for patients hospitalized on the medical floor with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). • Setting and participants: 1054 patients with CAP admitted to 12 acute care community hospitals from March 1998 to February 2000 (baseline, n = 517) and from October 2000 to March 2001 (postinter-vention, n = 437). • Intervention: Hospitals could select 1 or more of 4 tools (preprinted orders, care pathways, a clinical pathway development tool, and sticker reminders) and 2 improvement strategies (physician profiling/ performance reports and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement's [IHI] Rapid Cycle Methodology). Update meetings and conference calls were held periodically to promote collaboration among hospitals. • Measurements: Time (in hours) from patient triage to initiation of intravenous (IV) antibiotics, percent-age of patients who receive antibiotics within 8 hours and within 4 hours of triage, days from triage to conversion from IV to oral antibiotics, days of in-hospital observation after switch from IV to oral antibiotics, length of stay (LOS), and in-hospital mortality rate. • Results: Significant improvements were noted in the mean time to administration of first dose of IV antibi-otics (4.01 to 3.57 hours, P = 0.002), percentage of patients receiving antibiotics within 4 hours (67.9% to 75.9%, P = 0.001), mean days from triage to switch from IV to oral antibiotics (2.02 to 1.25 days, P < 0.001), and mean LOS (5.62 to 5.04 days, P = 0.006). • Conclusion: Certain CAP process and outcome measures improved after the multicenter interven-tion. A controlled study is needed to verify that this type of intervention can result in improvements in antibiotic timing and LOS.

Show will run from October 16 - November 6, 2015
Part of the human experience is searching for meaning in life. People achieve this in different ways including: sports, travel, socializing, volunteering, adventures or shopping, some choose to create. Art provides the receptacle to express the intersection between the intellect and intuition and this process reinforces the evolution of accepting what it is to be human. It is through this process that we achieve a greater connection to those around us and to who we are. While the approach of this work is opposed; the commonality is in the value of making. This body of work expresses a sampling of observations from nature and life experiences retold in art making using paper, ink and clay.
Valerie Albicker: "The underpinning of my work comes from searching for the discarded. In this particular show, I found bricks and flooring that became the platform for the series. My work is inspired by observations from nature as I ride my bike to work, the sound of humming birds, flowers, underwater environments and other entrapment's less desirable. It is the unexpected nature of working with glaze and high temperatures that enables me to get out of the way to allow the pieces to create themselves."
Ms. Albicker is the director of the Visiting Artist Lecture Series at the University of Colorado. She graduated from Munson Williams Proctor Institute School of the Arts, Albany State and Russell Sage College.
Helen Baribeau: "The Giant Garden Glove series is an ongoing project that explores blending my traditionally 2D art practice with an exploration of its potential in a 3D format. The project deals with the natural world and the challenges imposed on the environment by the demands our culture makes."
Helen Baribeau moved to Arizona from Montreal, Canada in the 70's and focused on printmaking at the University of Arizona in Tucson. She moved to Colorado and received an MFA in printmaking in 2010.and after two-years in the DC area she returned to Colorado with a passion for papermaking as an added component to her art practice.

'Make. Do.' is a showcase of young artists working in the denver community who expanded upon the idea of arte povera to make work. Each piece alludes to the lives and hands of the artists. As a continuum of arte povera, the works highlight the use of simple and recognizable materials and objects to explore different concepts, methodologies and processes. The work featured in the 'make. Do.' exhibition is juried by artist, gallery owner and director Eric Dallimore, artist and current host at the Clyfford Still museum Diego Rodriguez-Warner and curator and art historian Petra Sertic.
Jenny Fillipetti
Opening Night Friday December 11, from 6-11pm
1st Friday Reception January 1, from 6-10pm
Show will run from December 11 - January 1, 2015
Interfascia is about edges, boundaries, membranes. The hazy borders between organism and environment; the sites of nerves and mouths and pores and cell membranes where perception transpires and molecules mix. Where we are all becoming: exchanging atoms; affecting and being affected by the people, animals, plants, and objects around us.
This body of interactive work transforms Hinterland into a living space where even the tiniest of our actions have visible creative power. Here, the rhythm of your breath is translated into intensities of line and form, your movement into patterns of light; and plants, people, and objects all exist in intimate circles of interconnection. Your presence at the show will also be the seed for a future series of artworks, to be perceived by other eyes, ears, and skin cells.
Jenny Filipetti is New York-born, Denver-based electronic media artist and educator. Her work involves the use of digital technologies to capture the ephemeral and render the imperceptible visible. In interfascia she explores the union of traditional ceramics with digital fabrication processes including 3D printing and CNC milling.

Sing it @CoachNeuheisel! To celebrate the beginning of the season, Rick debuts this little diddy about the Top 10. http://t.co/QZ7mOkD4Lr
— SEConCBS (@SEConCBS) September 5, 2015
On the first episode of CBS' new "College Football Today" studio show, Rick Neuheisel was apparently expected to grip it and rip it. With his analysis as well as with his guitar.
So he did. And very acutely acoustically with both tasks, we should add.
Ripped away from the Pac-12 Network as its featured studio analyst, the former UCLA quarterback and head coach has already set the bar high for those who expect a song-and-dance man to summarize the SEC coverage that CBS is locked into these days.
(See the clip above: He also managed to find a way to get "CBS" in as the last rhyme. His next appearance is on Saturday's pregame before Georgia-Vanderbilt at noon on Channel 2).
"I like goofing around with the guitar, but on a much smaller scale," Neuheisel said this morning. "Give me a verse and I'll sound clever and half-way entertaining. These ensemble pieces are going to out me as a clear amateur in the ways of music. Hopefully we can reduce it so it still catches the listener by surprise and they don't realize I'm really tone deaf.
"I'm just a guy who can play 30 percent of every song, but it's really much better if you've had a lot to drink."
Having decided that he's so committed to this new CBS gig that he actually relocated to New York and is putting his Manhattan Beach place up for rent, Neuheisel explained some of the transition involved in this latest media-related career move, which includes doing a daily show called "Full Ride" from 7-to-10 a.m. PT on Sirius XM College Sports Nation Channel 84 with partner Chris Childers:
Q: This isn't just a weekend gig for CBS that involves flying up to San Francisco, doing a few studio shows and then relaxing at the beach? You've really had to do a lifestyle change for this?
A: I feel like I've gone away to college again and I'm staying in my dorm room. Swear to goodness. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches all over again. I'm in constant contact with college football, whether it's TV or talking on the radio or doing interviews. I do feel like a coach again. I look forward to having my wife finally able to join me here in the Big Apple. This really is a leap of faith, taking a swing at network TV. I loved working for the Pac-12 Network and especially with the people there.
Q: But now you have to become an expert in the SEC, because that's CBS' baby, and that must be something of a culture shock as well?
A: I gotta tell you, I went on my own private tour to all 14 SEC schools. Took my wife and got in the car and did the whole Grizwolds thing. I even stopped at the Mississippi River as we were going to Memphis and Knoxville and I did the whole Clark Grizwold line about the 'Old Miss …' It was my own 'Vacation' movie.
I had been to Georgia before, because we played there when I was UCLA. Tennessee, I had coached there. Texas A&M and Missouri I had seen. But never had I been to the other places, and to go to these little college towns like Auburn and Fayetteville … I get it now. I don't mean to any abandonment of the Pac-12, but I get the media attention to this conference. They have this beacon on the hill as a stadium and the towns revolve around it. It's really charming. It's just a completely different take on the game than anywhere else.
Q: So all the way back in New York, were they talking about Josh Rosen's first game at UCLA? Were some there calling it the best performance by a true freshman — ever — as many in the media were going off? Continue reading

I've just had five wonderfully inspiring days with a student photographer aged twelve.
This young lady sees the world in a fresh young way naturally, but she also has such an instinct that she
can "see" the picture and capture it in an instant. She breaks the rules and makes it work.
So thanks to Liza I'm once again appreciating the rule of no rules.
So if you'd like to learn more about photography while visiting Paris email me and I'll make it happen!
I was recently back home to Ireland and was pleasantly reminded of the "Irish cead mile failté".
My Landscape photography workshop was attended by delegates from California and Paris, and the people
and the scenery of Co Donegal never let us down!
My next workshop in May (hopefully May 22nd or 23rd) is something I'm really looking forward to.
It really was magic!

Desktop Testing: LDTP 1.0.0 Released
Three years after the initial version, the Linux Desktop Testing Project (LDTP) has finally released version 1.0.
The test software uses the C and Python programming languages. It is designed to use the Cspi library to penetrate the GUI desktop.
Libcspi is part of the Atspi bundle in the Gnome barrier free project. Users can use test scripts to automatically test their desktop environments for functionality or usability. The LDTP test architecture includes scripts that rely on the LDTP API. The interface uses a Unix socket or TCP to communicate with the engine. The application under test (AUT) is tied in with the engine by the AT-SPI library. The tools and technology is based on the Software Automation Framework, an Open Source framework by SAS.
The LDTP architecture starts with the test script written by the user. Under the hood the AT-SPI library connects the application under test with the engine.
The project's download page lists RPM packages for 32 and 64 bit x86 platforms. Packages are also available for Debian and Gentoo, although the Debian package is currently in "unstable". Besides this, there are Solaris versions and the source code. The project opted for the Lesser General Public License (LGPL), also known as the GNU Library. In contrast to GPL'd software, LGPL-licensed software can be used in non-free products.

Corbin Bleu is a former High School Musical star who is competing on season 17 of Dancing with the Stars with season 13 champion Karina Smirnoff. The Disney alum will blog for PEOPLE.com about his experience on ABC's hit show.
My sister is usually very internal with her emotions, so getting to see her reaction and to be able to hear how much last week's dance meant to her made the whole experience absolutely worth it. I know the dance made an impact. It made me so happy.
It was so great that Karina took my family's emotion and story and was able to put it into a dance. It's really incredible to be able to trust her with that.
This week we've got the Viennese waltz. We're doing it to something very epic and I'm just super stoked about it. We're going to be in costume and we're telling the story of characters from a popular TV show. It's my favorite show.
It's been pretty difficult this week because I've had so many outside things going on. I did the Ellen show, I've had a photo shoot, I did KTLA and I launched my Indiegogo campaign for the movie The Day I Died. It's the story of a young boy who was brutally bullied in high school due to his sexuality. It's a very touching story and it's very raw. I'm very passionate about it.

Kentucky's Noel Entering NBA Draft While Rehabbing Knee Injury
University of Kentucky freshman Nerlens Noel will enter the National Basketball Association draft as he continues to rehabilitate a torn knee ligament that ended his college season in February.
Projected by analysts, including ESPN's Chad Ford, to be the top pick in the draft on June 27, Noel announced his decision today in a statement on the university's athletics website. The 6-foot-10 forward had surgery two months ago to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
"I have loved my time at Kentucky, but I feel that I'm ready to take the next step to the NBA," Noel, 19, said in the statement.
Noel led the National Collegiate Athletic Association in shots blocked per game, with 4.4, and had 50 steals, the only player taller than 6-foot-5 to place in the top 30 in that category, the statement said. He also averaged 10.5 points and 9.5 rebounds per game.
Noel tore the ligament in a game against Florida after landing awkwardly on his left leg and running into the basket support.
Analysts from ESPN and basketball website Sheridan Hoops are among those projecting Noel to be the top pick in the draft, held on June 27 at Madison Square Garden in New York. The order for the top 14 picks is determined in a lottery next month.
The NBA's age limit prevents players from going directly to the NBA from high school. Anthony Davis, the top pick in the 2012 NBA draft after one year with Kentucky, was guaranteed about $9.1 million over his first two professional seasons.
The Wildcats this season became the fifth defending national champion since 1985 to miss the NCAA tournament, going 21-11 and losing in the first round of the National Initiation Tournament. They have the country's top-rated 2013 recruiting class, according to ESPN.

Friends of Knox County Public Library selling used books
Not all of Knox County Public Library's books are borrow-only; those with a love for the literary can pick up used books for a buck or two.
Friends of the Knox County Public Library will have used book sales at five branch libraries, raising money for programs for children, teens and adults, library-sponsored events, and professional development for library staff.
The first sale will be today and Monday at the Burlington branch, with sales to follow Nov. 5 at the Halls branch, Nov. 14 at the Powell branch, Nov. 18 at Cedar Bluff and Dec. 9-10 at Bearden.
Most hardcover books sell for $2; paperbacks are $1 or less. Children's hardcover books are $1, and board books and paperbacks are 50 cents or less.
Though the sales are popular events with larger selections, Friends of the Knox County Public Library offers used books for sale year-round at Lawson McGhee Library, 500 W. Church Ave.
And if you're interested in how libraries in Knoxville and at the University of Tennessee came to be, plan to attend a free program at 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 30, at downtown's East Tennessee History Center. Bruce Wheeler will present "Mr. Dabney Builds His Library."
Knoxville and UT saw the need for a library at about the same time, but while the Knoxville library was a group effort, the university's library was largely the work of one man: Dr. Charles W. Dabney, UT president from the late 1880s to 1904.

What is a personal injury trust
Personal injury trusts are usually established following payment of a compensation award to a claimant who has suffered personal injury. In some instances the Court will be involved giving specific direction as to how funds should be used and invested, however, more commonly, the claimant (or his representatives) will seek professional legal advice in respect of which type of trust should be set up. In either case, the trust will usually be treated as having been created by the claimant (a self-settlement).
1) To preserve entitlement to means tested benefits - When a compensation award is paid directly to the claimant, it will often have an adverse effect on means-tested benefits which may be reduced significantly or even stopped. By setting up a trust to
receive the award, most means-tested benefits can be preserved. This trust could also be used to protect any future entitlement where a client is not currently in receipt of means-tested benefits.
2) Where the claimant is mentally incapable – in some circumstances compensation may be awarded to someone who is incapable of dealing with their own affairs. The use of a trust ensures that the award, and the claimant, is protected. The trustees will need to satisfy the claimant's needs and ensure they act within their statutory duty of care when administering the trust fund.
3) Where the claimant is a minor – an award may be made in favour of a minor who will be unable to legally deal with the sum of money. In this case a trust is equally beneficial as again it provides protection for the minor and the trustees are legally responsible for administering the trust fund in the best interests of the minor taking account of their statutory duty of care.
4) Tax benefits – provided the trust is structured correctly and the beneficiary meets the definition of a disabled person, the trust can qualify for beneficial tax treatment. There are different rules for income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax, but a correctly structured trust can meet the criteria for all three.
5) Wider personal reasons – the claimant may decide that they don't have the necessary knowledge and experience to invest and manage large sums of money and would prefer to appoint other family members/professionals who would be best placed to look after the award. This would also mean that the claimant would not
have to deal with the burden of trust administration themselves.
A personal injury trust is simply a trust that has been established to hold/receive a personal injury award, and may take any number of different forms with bare and discretionary trusts being the most common.
Discretionary trusts have the advantage of flexibility, allowing the trustees to accumulate income rather than pay it out and also to make payments to persons other than the settlor where necessary. But this flexibility comes at a cost as a more rigid tax regime applies. Creation of the trust will give rise to a chargeable lifetime transfer and there will be on-going charges periodically every ten years as well as when capital is applied in favour of a beneficiary. Trustees must also comply with the IHT reporting requirements. However, if the claimant/beneficiary satisfies certain criteria and the trust is structured correctly, the trust will be afforded special tax treatment and the onerous tax regime that applies to standard discretionary trusts will be avoided.
Definition of disabled person
• Someone who is incapable by reason of mental disorder defined by the Mental Health Act 1983 of administering their property of managing their affairs; or
• someone who is in receipt of attendance allowance or disability living allowance; or
• someone who is in receipt of the care component of disability living allowance at the highest or middle rate.
Definition of vulnerable beneficiary
• Someone who is mentally or physically disabled; or
• someone under the age of 18 who has lost a parent
through death.
Where the trust is set up on a bare trust basis, the absolutely entitled beneficiary/claimant will be the taxable person for income tax and capital gains tax purposes so there will be no need for vulnerable beneficiary elections which are required with a discretionary trust. Similarly, as the trust fund is not settled property for inheritance tax purposes, the value of the trust fund will automatically form part of the claimant's (settlor's) estate for inheritance tax purposes.
This article provides a broad overview of personal injury trusts and some of the aspects which ought to be considered. It's essential that clients who meet the definition of a disabled person (or have a condition that might reasonably be expected to lead to their becoming disabled) take professional advice to ensure that tax saving opportunities are not missed.

Urban Decay B6 Vitamin-Infused Complexion Prep Spray ($33) was just recently launched as part of an early preview of the Urban Decay Fall 2013 Collection. I told you about it earlier this week and have been testing it out all this week to see what I think.
Urban Decay has introduced makeup setting sprays in the past but the B6 Vitamin-Infused Complexion Prep Spray is actually the first prep spray the brand has done. Being a rather fond fan of facial mists I was curious about this formula but unfortunately it addresses issues I don't really have a problem with such as redness, larger pores, and oil.

P.S. I caught up on Whodunnit on my way to work this morning. I don't typically watch or like reality TV game shows like this but it just sounded like something I might enjoy so I decided to give it a go.
Gosh…it is absolutely a train wreck to follow. First off the contestants all seem like hired, untrained actors. It seems like they took them into a room, told them how to react and what to say, and started filming within an hour of the "training session".
The mansion they are staying at seems massive outside but inside it seems so small!? While the contestants are running around trying to find clues it seems like they are doing so in only a small amount of space yet the mansion is supposedly massive from the outside?! Is it the Tardis in reverse?!
Everything progresses so quickly….it seemed like we jumped from the murder to the clues in record time and we never really got to completely see each contestants "guess" on how the murder happened only cut up edits of their statements.
I've hosted and been to many Mystery Murder parties and I don't think you can honestly take one of those and make it into a 60 minute TV show (40 minutes if you count all those commercial breaks).
Hopefully it gets better but right now I feel like I can't stand all the contestants….!
Anyone watch?
Might I suggest you catch up on the BBC Whodunnit classic hosted by Doctor Who himself, Jon Pertwee, from the 70's which this show is copied after. That's worthy of a watch!

This is the story of a snake, a bear, and a little girl. Three great friends living together on the forested slopes beneath a mountain. There is a glade within the forest. Evergreens surround the meadow-grass, fireweed, and bee balm. The mountain's snowcap is visible on clear days. Warmed by the sun, the three friends lay in a lazy pile near a broad, flat boulder. The bear licks the bottoms of the girl's bare feet. The coiled snake dozes on the boulder. Summer is over but the days remain pleasant.
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern's Hippo
Last night I dreamed a production of "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead". In regulation dream-fashion, it wasn't really "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead". Best of all, there was a great zoo scene in it. With a hippo. In a wading pool.

A Country Christmas Story About Dogs and Metal Buildings
I wish I could say it was a Merry Christmas. I wish I could tell you everything worked out all right. Okay, I'll go ahead and play it like this: yes, in the end, everyone was fine and nobody got what they didn't deserve.
For years, I'd been listening to that dog across the street. Most of the homes around here are spread out; there's plenty of wide open space and not a lot of trees, owing mostly to the fact this is all "improved" former pastureland. Everywhere except on the side of the road opposite my own driveway.
I don't hang out with those folks—not that I'm all that social with anyone around here. I smile and wave at the majority of my neighbors but also wonder if they're going to line me up with a scoped rifle someday soon. Anyway, about the family across the street, we didn't even make a bad attempt at being friendly. I can't recall a single specific incident that could have caused a rift, but it just seemed as if our wiring was out of phase or something.

The last of the collections is leather scraps. It smells the best. If you burrow into the bins, you don't want to touch bottom—damp, mulch-like, maggoty. Stay close to the surface and you'll be fine. Soak up the scent of soap, bay leaves, and fresh-cut softwood.
Someone rolled gray enamel over the windows. Who would paint a window? Nothing inside this warehouse has borne daylight in a decade or more. This isn't completely correct; a million billion holes permeate the roof and walls. Matrices of light stand out against the dust that is suspended perpetually. That's a lot of exposition, so let's move on.

Swirling in the Service of the Lord
We had no idea our hosts were evangelical Christians with a sinister agenda. But when we arrived at their compound, the look of it was bad enough to give us pause. Each detached "unit" was brand-new, but they were all made to look like crackers' shacks. I made a sneering remark alluding to "Tobacco Road".
It wasn't long before they invited us to leave. At the farewell dinner, I annoyed our hosts by singing a parodic hymn of praise and thanksgiving, "Swirling in the Service of the Lord." Then we helped ourselves to macaroons and bagels "for the road".
Before I set off walking for the car, I went down to the basement and scooped up a boxload of drugs, also "for the road". Waiting for the freight elevator, I spied a pair of shoes in a bin of items collected for a fundraising sale. I nicked them. "Like walking on peas," they were.
At some point during the night, I had to wear a badge indicating that I was a Woman Who'd Had One or More Abortions. But that was a different story, I think.
Last night I dreamed
Kansas City. Or more rightly Leawood, Kansas. 119th St. A street fair of sorts. Jazz and barbecue. White tents. A billion people swarmed it seemed. Overwhelming. Overwhelmed. I was in the deepest basement of a store storing display props. A mannequin on a stand. A woman horizontal. Shaped like a dolphin. The leg came off. I had to wrestle to carry it with the rest. Awkward, wobbley, moving through dim-lit aisles. Found a good spot, threw the extension cord over. The added weight started it leaning forward. It wasn't going to stand. Fukkit I thought. Picked up my phone. Went upstairs. Outside. Street was crazy. Growing bright. Noisy in the dusk. My phone rang. It wasn't my ring. It wasn't my phone. Had a coiled expansion cord with three loose wires. I tried to call its number to find the owner, realized I had the owner's phone. I think I remembered where I left my phone. It was on a shelf in the society department of the store where I worked. I went into a store-front. There were refreshments. Gordon Lish followed me in. White hair wisping like his white hair does. I said Gordon! What are you doing here? Getting my boat fixed was his reply. He head-gestured toward the drive out front where sat a long, long cigarette boat. Black. Shiny. I said what's that on the back? Jet engine he said. He was gone. Sheila walked up wearing layers of clothes. She said the outer layer was her on-the-lam-bswool vest. She asked if I wanted to go out for a smoke. I said oh, hon, I stopped smoking….Back in March she finished. I nodded. She looked disappointed. I said you want to sit a minute? We sat. I couldn't stay seated. I needed my phone. I said you want to walk with me? She nodded. We started up the street.
Tonight I will sleep the sleep of the justified.
Super-true story: via @yrstrulyrel met Bud drinker @paulbogaards who shot me & Elmore Leonard for @cirinda #nbaward12 twitter.com/HuisceBeatha/s…
— Heather McCormack (@HuisceBeatha) November 15, 2012
This is so cool I can't hardly stand it.
I've been way way down lately, so when India's and Lucy's friend Heather commenced live-tweeting about Elmore Leonard from the National Book Awards, I got all excited. She and I got going back and forth, and I told her about my crush on Leonard. And we got talking about one of Leonard's minor gifts — how he never strikes a false note when he writes about music. Anyway . . .
She said she'd try and get me a photo. And she did.
Travel Planning: New Orleans, 2013
A friend and I are planning a road trip for August 2013: a drive from Chicago to New Orleans, where he'll be speaking on a panel at the annual meeting of the Society of American Archivists.
The other night I dreamt about this trip, dreamt a dream that offered guidance worth sharing with my friend. Here is what I wrote him.
I do hope there's been no misunderstanding over the business with the rifle. My insistence on retaining it was not motivated by a desire to "teach you a lesson" nor exact a petty bit of payback. Please know that I was not especially upset over your having hustled me onto that express bus at a moment when I was concerned over the fate of my missing wallet. Under the circumstances, your having opted to take the express to the conference hotel made sense, as you had a session you needed to get to, and my negligence, wallet-wise, could scarcely have been a concern of yours. Mildly hesitant though I was about the bus, I did not protest, as I counted on having an opportunity to hop off near that subterranean restaurant where I suspected I'd left the article, claim it, then join up with you later on. Whether or not you were aware that the bus would make no intermediate stops and that it would take us so very far from the restaurant is no longer at issue, being what you might call a "moot point."
Dreams of Small Recitals
You are caramel and hot wax. I am a new wool sweater with a bull's eye on its back. The ladder in the yard climbs high into the air and I go up, up, up. I'm afraid to look down. The ladder stands unsupported as if it's a flagpole. I remove bandages until the fabric coils like snakes, but nothing within is wrapped except old air. A woman in line at the deli complains: "My feet are killing me and I can't stand for very long because it hurts my back." I suggest she should wait instead for service at the shoe store. Strangers don't appreciate it when you're trying to be helpful.

OT made its name through the 2000s in large part because of its pioneering patent auctions. Although most assets in each one usually went unsold they were major events and did attract some big buyers - Read more

More motions for fee-shifting are being filed but the rate at which they're being awarded is steadyFee-shifting may have been overtaken by the future of the IPR regime as the most sensitive topic on the US patent reform agenda, but it remains one of the most politically loaded parts of the proposed legislation. For Republicans who hunger for broader tort reform it represents one way of clipping the wings of the trial lawyers lobby – for example, both Senators Cornyn and Hatch have been particularly strong proponents of fee-shifting.

This model was tops in gas, with perfect marks for browning and simmering on the stovetop: less turning and stirring needed when you cook. In the center, there's a fifth griddle burner that's ideal for making gravy in a roasting pan. The oven produced superior cakes and cookies, a result of its very even heating pattern.

Ever wonder how some of your colleagues seem to get telephone calls out of the blue from a new prospective client, with which they no prior relationship? General counsel are always on the prowl for lawyers with expertise in their industries. The obvious question is what is the most effective way for you to get on their radar screens and get those telephone calls. The answer lies in the blogosphere. A remarkable 41% of clients rely on legal blogs to identify counsel knowledgable in their industry. General counsel use a variety of different tools to be alerted when a blog is posted which might be of interest to them, even when these lawyers don't subscribe to your legal blog. And, of course, when they are looking for a lawyer on a particular new case, they also use plain old Google searches. Remarkably, 96% of law firms do not even post legal blogs. If you don't have a legal blog, you won't be seen or known to the 41% of general counsel who rely on legal blogs. Here are the basics of legal blogging.
