The Woodlands Homes Sales Report
Positive momentum surged September sales upward 16.1%. We can expect strong sales activity through the month of October.
The picture below shows the number of sales by price range.
As we roll into fall and winter we can expect listing inventory inventory to remain high and buyer activity to ebb after October.
For Buyers: Selection is the best it's been in several years.
For Sellers: if ever there was time to adjust your competitive position in the market place, this is it. Right now. After October we will experience a significant drop in buyer activity.
Home prices and appreciation hold steady.
Selection for buyers = locked in excellent-mode.
Competition for sellers remains fierce. Expect longer Days On Market and tough negotiations. Merchandising, presentation and Transmedia marketing are a must. Follow through and follow-up will be critical in moving from contract to closing.

I spent yesterday, and now, as I write this weak description of the indescribable, processing my BurningMan experience.
Weeks leading up to #BurningMan2015 I spent plenty of time researching the web, reading forums, looking at pictures, visiting the official BurningMan site and so on and on.
It turns out that nothing you hear, read or see will prepare you for the actual experience. It's more spectacular on every level than I could imagine.
A sea of eye popping visuals, art, extremely-expressive-beautiful-humans, wildly decorated bikes, swirling white dust, expressive art-art, massively impressive, big as buses art-cars trimmed in brilliant bright neon lights, blaring non-stop-music and throwing flames, heat, dust, fatigue, streaming surprises and unexpected more.
Sonically it's a relentless sound bath, every second of every hours, 24 hours a day, seven days straight. Sleep was elusive. I found it almost impossible to sleep, In be my toes tapped unaided and base beats bounced around like super-balls in my head.
Radical free-expression is the rule and truth. It's the soul of everything, how people dress, or not, what they ride, the camps they live in, what's gifted, received, shared and talked about.
I didn't pick up my phone for four days. No texts, no calls, no email, no Facebook, zero cyber connection, just real world immersion. Well, I don't know if you can call BurningMan real world, but it was my real world for a few days. I didn't the miss the cyber connection at all. It also means that I didn't carry my phone anywhere, which means I didn't snap a single picture. I'm including a couple of links below to pictures that others took. While looking at pictures before I went I thought, "These pictures must be the highlights?". Nope, in reality the pictures you'll see are "reality", not highlights. A chaos of color and oh-wow was happening everywhere, all the time. Every second was a highlight.
One of the many remarkable things I observed and experienced is the sincere friendliness and complete lack of competition, aggression or judging. No handshakes or hesitation, big sincere hugs, bigger smiles and conversation about the Burn. "Is this your first?" How is your Burn going?" What have you seen that's blown your mind?, Is it like you thought? How would you describe it? What Art should I go see? How would you describe Burning Man to your friends at home?" These are were the common conversations, not "What business are you in? What do you do for a living?" and the usual at home conversation. Beautiful.
Overall the experience was complex and dense on multiple levels; visually, sonically, environmentally (hot, white out dust storms, serene sunrises, crystal clear nights with temps dropping into the 30's), emotionally and socially. Supremely impactful.
For me, sleep was hard to come by. One night we were out on the Playa till 4 in the morning dancing, swaying and bouncing like fools with hundreds of others (old, young and in between alike) at the Mayan Warrior Art Car. Later, shuffling our feet in dusty heat at Camp White Ocean and Disco Nights and electric biking-whizzing our way across the mile+ wide Playa wide eyed gawking at the Art and people.
The levels of dedication, commitment and passion required for 70,000 people to prepare, trek to, set up, participate, share, create, experience, tear down and leave without a trace is powerfully inspiring. You really have to see it to believe it and understand it. Even having lived it, I'n not sure I completely understand it. I'll have to go back.
My daughter Lauren, was a powerful positive force in creating the Cirque Gigante camp in which I stayed as a guest. Spending time with her, having her guide, introduce, educate and squire me through the experience brings tears to my eyes and a wrap around smile to my face. Lauren is a beautiful force of nature and a blessing to so many.
I met amazing people, saw unimaginable things and experienced an indescribable four days. Nothing can prepare you for your first BurningMan and afterward it's impossible to describe the impact it will have on your physical, social, mental and emotional self. In my 58 years I've had the great good fortunate to experience some amazing adventures. I put my dive into BurningMan in the profound on many levels category. It's impact will alter my life.
Thank you Lauren Brand. I love you.
Here's a few links to some pictures of the celebration:

Yes it's true! These aren't highlights, this is everyday living at #BurningMan: https://instagram.com/explore/tags/burningman2015/
The Woodlands real estate market is a teeter-totter. Down in January. Up in February. Steady in March. Down April, May and June. Sales spiked skyward 19.7% in July.
Year-To-Date listings placed under-contract lag last year's impressive total by a mere 3.4%, only 75 fewer sales. ( January – July = 1,804 in 2013 and 1729 so far this year.)
While unit sales lag a little, sold prices leap a lot. July's Average-Sold-Price is an eye watering 24.5% higher than last year. $515,122 compared to $413,571.
The Median-Sold-Price is up 16.7%. $402,750 this July, $345,000 last July.
We expected continued strength in the market. Sold prices will stabilize as a result of historically high inventory/selection.
The number or properties for sale in The Woodlands remains historically lofty at 947.
For Buyers: Selection is the best it's been in several years.
For Sellers: More inventory means more competition. Choosing the right agent is more important than ever. Take a look at this.
The July Average Sold Price is $100,000 over last year! Median sold prices are up over $50,000.
Employment, construction, inbound corporate buyer activity, oil prices and crystal ball gazing suggest steady sales, sold prices moving upward at a slower pace and historically high levels of inventory.
Selection for buyers = locked in excellent-mode.
Competition for sellers remains fierce. Expect longer Days On Market and tough negotiations. Merchandising, presentation and Transmedia marketing are a must. Follow through and follow-up will be critical in moving from contract to closing.
Congratulations on your excellence. I know our seller's appreciate your efforts. Thanks for all you do.

CIA DIRECTOR TELLS PELOSI, C'MON, STFU: Nancy Pelosi accused the CIA yesterday of lying over what it claims to have told Senate leaders in a 2002 briefing on "enhanced interrogation techniques," and today the CIA Director, arbitrary Bill Clinton political operative Leon Panetta, responded that no, the CIA did not lie. There is a MAJOR SCANDAL here: various high-profile political figures are making efforts to defend either themselves or their institutions! [NYT]

But the study is a reminder of just how problematic and tricky flu can be, especially in pregnancy, Siegel said. "Pregnant women should get flu shots, especially the H1N1 shot," he said.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention agrees that the best protection against the flu is to get vaccinated. This year, that means getting a seasonal flu shot and an H1N1 flu shot when the vaccine is available.
Because pregnant women are at a high risk for complications from the flu, the CDC has put them at the front of both the seasonal and H1N1 vaccine line.
"If you are a woman of reproductive age and likely to be pregnant, be very sure you have gotten vaccinated," Finch advised.
More information
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has more information on flu at its Web site flu.gov.

Become an eggspert!
For as long as we can remember, there have been myths flying round about the nutritional values and health effects of eating eggs. We'll solve a few of them for you right here…
How many calories are in an egg?
The amount of calories in an egg depends greatly on its size and the way it's cooked - for example, a medium-sized boiled egg will obviously have fewer calories than a large fried egg. As a general rule, an uncooked, large-sized egg contains approximately 78kcals, and a medium-sized egg contains 66kcals - or 131 calories per 100 grams.
What are the typical nutritional values of an egg?
The nutritional make-up of an egg per 100g is as follows:
- Energy: 547kJ or 131kcal
- Fat: 9.0g
- of which saturates: 2.5g
- Carbohydrates: <0.5g
- of which sugars: <0.5g
- Protein: 12.6g
- Salt: 0.358g
How much cholesterol is there in eggs?
Until fairly recently, eating a high volume of eggs was thought to have a negative effect on a person's cholesterol levels. But egg-lovers can now rejoice, as recent scientific research by the British Heart Foundation has disproved these theories once and for all.
People used to think that the cholesterol levels in our bodies was directly influenced by the cholesterol in our food - but high cholesterol levels are usually caused by eating too much saturated fat, rather than eating too much cholesterol itself.
So, while eating lots of fried eggs might risk raising your cholesterol, that's because of the fat used to fry the egg, not the egg itself. Poached, boiled, and scrambled eggs (without butter) will have no negative effects on your cholesterol levels, and can be enjoyed as often as possible. Eggs are also great for people slimming too - as they're free on most diet plans!
How many eggs can I eat a day?
There's no recommended limit on how many eggs you should eat a day - the most important thing is to eat a balanced diet and get all the nutrients you need. About 30 million eggs are eaten in the UK every day, which is nearly one egg for every two people!
Which vitamins are in eggs?
You might already know that eggs are a great source of protein. But you might not be aware that they also contains vitamin D, vitamin A, vitamin B2, iodine, phosphorus, calcium, thiamine, and riboflavin - quite an impressive lineup!
Can I eat raw eggs?
Nowadays, it's safer than ever to eat eggs - but having them raw is less safe than having them cooked. This is because the bacteria in raw eggs isn't killed through cooking, as it usually would be.
Many everyday foods and sauces (like mayonnaise, hollandaise sauce, ice cream, and mousse) are made with raw eggs - but manufacturers will usually use pasteurised raw eggs, which means the bacteria has been killed.
So if you're being adventurous and making your own food using raw eggs, it's always safer to used pasteurised eggs rather than normal raw eggs.
Should I keep eggs in the fridge?
According to the Lion Code guidelines, eggs should be stored in the fridge for optimum freshness - and if you're baking with your eggs, you should take them out of the fridge 30 minutes before using them.
Whichever way you store your them, remember that eggshells are porous - so if they're put next to something with a strong smell, they're likely to take on the flavour.
What makes up an egg?
First things first - the shell. The protective outer layer is made almost entirely of calcium carbonate crystals, which is responsible for the shell's bumpy, grainy texture and 17,000 tiny pores. The shell also has a thin coating known as the 'bloom' that helps keep out bacteria and dust.
Moving inside, you'll find the inner and outer membranes - these are surprisingly strong, and are partly made from keratin, a protein that's found in human hair. After the egg is laid and has cooled, an air cell rests between the membranes at the larger end. It can be beneficial to store eggs point down to keep this air cell intact and ensure a high quality product.
Now we're starting to get to the good stuff - the white, or 'albumen' to give it its proper name. Made of four layers, it contains about 40 different proteins, believe it or not! The white ropes that hold the yolk in place are known as chalazae - and the more prominent they are, the fresher the egg will be.
Finally, we've got the yolk, which contains more protein than the white, along with some fat, and most of the egg's vitamins and minerals. The shade of the yolk is determined by the hen's diet - and at the happy egg co., we're proud that our girls reward us with tasty, golden yolks every time.

After the sad Twitter meltdowns (by which I mean "communication breakdowns") surrounding today's Nines leadership conference (from which no one seems to have emerged more Christlike), a prayer.
Will you join me? (Comment with an "amen" if you feel like it.)
+ + + +
Jesus prayed that his followers may all be one.
In the power of the Spirit, we join our prayers with his.
O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
our only Savior, the Prince of Peace:
give us grace seriously to lay to heart
the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions.
Take away all hatred and prejudice,
and whatever else may hinder us
from godly union and concord;
that, as there is but one body and one Spirit,
one hope of our calling,
one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
one God and Father of us all,
so we may henceforth be all of one heart and of one soul,
united in one holy bond of peace, of faith and charity,
and may with one mind and one mouth glorify you;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
I am the vine and you are the branches.
Abide in me as I abide in you.
As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.
Abide in me as I abide in you.
No one has greater love than this,
to lay down one's life for one's friends.
Abide in me as I abide in you.
You are my friends if you do what I command you;
love one another as I have loved you.
Abide in me as I abide in you.
Intercessions are offered for the unity of the Church.
Lord of the Church
hear your people's prayer.
Silence may be kept.
Lord Jesus Christ,
who said to your apostles,
'Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you':
look not on our sins but on the faith of your Church
and grant it the peace and unity of your kingdom;
where you are alive and reign with the Father
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

Awe Inspiring Beach Day
Beach day!! Today can be summed up quite simply as a day of sun, relaxation and swimming with a smattering of water sports. However, since this trip began, when have you known me to skimp on the details?

Bad Reichenhall Vacation Packages
Why not spend some time exploring Bad Reichenhall? Start with a visit to the the Old Salt Works.
From much-loved, tourist hotspots to lesser known gems, the area around Bad Reichenhall is brimming with natural and cultural attractions. Head 9 miles (14 kilometers) north to Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden, where you'll find the Hintersee and Goetschen Ski-Center.
Ruhpolding, is another good spot to head to. It is approximately 11 miles (18 kilometers) from Bad Reichenhall and offers a wide range of tourist attractions, including Ruhpolding Amusement Park, Vita Alpina and Golf Club Ruhpolding. Be sure not to head back to Bad Reichenhall until you've stopped by Ruhpolding's Unternberg Ruhpolding, Church of Saint George and Barthlomaus Schmucker Heritage Museum.
The most rewarding places for tourists to visit when they discover a place they have never been are the spots that offer a snapshot of the local culture. Head to Upper Bavaria's theaters, art galleries and history museums. When the weather's great, why not take the chance to explore Upper Bavaria's gardens and open-air museums?.
A fun way to explore the wild open spaces in Upper Bavaria is to sign up for a mountain climbing or hiking adventure. There are times when one of the most effective ways to see a place is by tapping into local knowledge. The Upper Bavaria offers a range of guided nature walks and city walking tours.
As your time here draws to an end, spend what's left of your euros on that last souvenir and say Tschüss to the people you've enjoyed getting to know and the spots you've enjoyed.

The present application claims priority from and is a continuation of patent application Ser. No. 11/011,498 filed on Dec. 14, 2004 and entitled "Method and System for Seamless Service Availability for Multi-Mode Terminals in Different Access Networks," the contents of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
The present disclosure relates to telecommunications, and in particular to methods and systems to provide seamless communications service availability for multi-mode terminals over different access networks.
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) offers wireless broadband service, including VoIP and other data services, in a small area with limited mobility. WLAN, especially in terms of Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g), is been widely deployed in many places. Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) offers voice and/or data services over a large geographical area with true mobility. Some device manufacturers are developing or have developed multi-mode terminal devices that are able to work in WLAN and WWAN.
However, the multi-mode devices typically cannot or do not operate in multiple modes (both WLAN and WWAN) simultaneously due to technical difficulties, cost, battery drain, and so forth. For example, if the terminal is working in WLAN mode, then the WWAN circuit may be shut down which makes the terminal unavailable in WWAN.
In addition, typical multi-mode terminal devices have unique directory numbers in different access networks. For example, a terminal may have a directory number in the corporate environment (for example, PBX or PABX) and a directory number in the WWAN network. The problem of ensuring that a call to the terminal's number in an access network reaches the terminal that is currently in a different access network requires a solution.
Current solutions in the industry focus on new functional nodes and signaling protocols in the network to handle the call routing based on the presence of the mobile terminal. This approach requires new network nodes and protocols to be implemented by the network service providers in the current networks, which can be costly, technically difficult, and problematically places the burden of the solution on the service provider.
The present disclosure is further described in the detailed description that follows, by reference to the noted drawings by way of non-limiting examples of embodiments of the present disclosure, in which like reference numerals represent similar parts throughout several views of the drawings, and in which:
In view of the foregoing, the present disclosure, through one or more of its various aspects, embodiments and/or specific features or sub-components, is thus intended to bring out one or more of the advantages that will be evident from the description. The present disclosure is described with frequent reference to telephones or cell phones. It is understood that a phone is merely an example of a specific embodiment of the present disclosure, which is directed generically to mobile communication terminals, equipment, systems and methods within the scope of the disclosure, together with attendant networks such as Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN) and Internet Protocol (IP) telephony, including but not limited to Voice-Over IP (VoIP). The terminology, therefore, is not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN): a wireless network that offers wireless communication and covers a small geographical area, typically less than 100 meters in diameter. WLAN includes Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g), HiperLAN (an alternative, European, WLAN standard to the American IEEE 802.11 standards), and the like.
Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN): a wireless network that offers wireless communication and covers a large geographical area, typically a few miles. WWAN includes 2G and 3G wireless networks (GSM, IS-136, IS-95, UMTS, CDMA1x, etc), WiMax, 802.16, and the like.
Wireless multi-mode device: terminal device that is capable of access and work in both WLAN and WWAN networks.
Intelligent Call Forwarding Module (ICFM): a functional module which can be either a software or hardware implementation that resides in the wireless multi-mode device. When a triggering event happens (for example access network change), the ICFM automatically or manually (by user interaction) enables the call forwarding feature in the previous access network to the directory number in the current access network and disables other call forwarding settings that may conflict with the new call forwarding action. The module also logs the events (access network and call forwarding status) in the device's memory for later use.
Call forwarding (or call diverting), in telephony, is a feature on some telephone networks that allows an incoming call to a called party which would be otherwise unavailable to be redirected to a mobile telephone or other telephone number where the desired called party is situated. Typically, special types of call forwarding can be activated only if the line is busy, or if there is no answer, or even only for calls from selected numbers. In North America, the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) presently uses the following vertical service codes to control call forwarding:
forward all calls: *72 activation; *73 deactivation on busy or no answer;
activation from select callers: *68, *88, deactivation;
activation on ISDN: *63, *83, deactivation;
change forward-to number: *56.
Customer-programmable features are also available through some network providers:
busy line: *90, activation, *91, deactivation;
change number: *40;
no answer: *92, activation; *93, deactivation;
change number: *42.
The present disclosure includes a combination of algorithms, software and hardware implementation to provide the service availability for multi-mode terminal devices that are capable of communications over Wireless LAN and Wireless WAN. The basic idea is to use a modified call forwarding feature in the networks to forward calls placed to the terminal directory number in other access networks to the directory number in its current serving network.
That is, rather than call forwarding between two different terminals, call forwarding of the present disclosure forwards a call to a selected multi-mode terminal in a first network mode to the same terminal in a second network mode. Forwarding to the same terminal is facilitated by exploiting the distinct assigned terminal phone number for each network environment in which the terminal can operate.
WWAN 120 and local network 120 are linked by communication backbone network 140. Accordingly, incoming call 115 to the WWAN network 120 phone number can be forwarded to terminal 110 in the local network through backbone network 140.
Terminal 110 is able to receive calls regardless of which directory number (of the multi-mode terminal) originating call 115 was targeted. An advantage is that no new network nodes and protocols are needed from the network service provider and the solution only needs to be implemented in the multi-mode terminals.
The module then logs that the call forwarding is enabled in network #1. The information is stored in its internal log. Upon the confirmation 40 from the current network #1, the intelligent call forwarding module, multi-mode terminal 110 registers 50 in the new wireless access network #2. If registration is not successful, terminal 110 cancels 55 call forwarding in network #1.
After the successful registration in the new wireless network #2, the Intelligent Call Forwarding Module checks its internal log to see if call forwarding has been previously enabled in the new serving network (#2) 60. If so, the Module instructs the multi-mode terminal to send out a signaling message to disable call forwarding settings in the new serving network (#2) 70.
If the registration with the new wireless network #2 is not successful, the Module instructs the multi-mode terminal to cancel the call forwarding it had just enabled in the serving network #1 and the multi-mode terminal continues to work in current mode 65.
For example: Assume multi-mode terminal 110 is GSM and WiFi ready. The terminal has one number X in GSM network and one number Y in the corporate PBX or PABX (with WiFi as access network) at the office.
The multi-mode terminal with number X is registered in the GSM network. The multi-mode terminal has network detection hardware and software, and discovers that a preferred WiFi (802.11a/b/g) network connected to a corporate PABX, which supports the service (e.g., voice or data) offered in WWAN, is available.
The multi-mode terminal enables call forwarding in GSM network to forward calls to the number Y. In a specific embodiment, forwarding is enabled by a supplementary services command (e.g., **21*Y#) or other signaling commands supported by the network. When the Home Location Register (HLR) in the GSM network receives the command, the GSM core network forwards incoming calls with destination X to number Y through the communication backbone network. After the call forwarding is enabled, the multi-mode terminal registers with the PBX via the WiFi access network.
The multi-mode terminal queries the PBX or checks its internal memory to discover any previous call forwarding set up (to number X in the GSM network, for example). The terminal disables the call forwarding in the PBX by sending commands (that are supported by the PBX for call forwarding) over the WiFi access network. The terminal now receives calls dialed to number Y. Calls that are dialed to number X will be forwarded to number Y. Therefore, from the calling party's view, the multi-mode terminal is also available as number X.
When the terminal leaves the WiFi network (corporate PBX), the ICFM performs the call forwarding procedure again so that it is now available as number X and calls to the PBX number Y are forwarded to number X.
Although the disclosure has been described with reference to several exemplary embodiments, it is understood that the words that have been used are words of description and illustration, rather than words of limitation. Changes may be made within the purview of the appended claims, as presently stated and as amended, without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure in all its aspects. Although the disclosure has been described with reference to particular means, materials and embodiments, the disclosure is not intended to be limited to the particulars disclosed; rather, the disclosure extends to all functionally equivalent technologies, structures, methods and uses such as are within the scope of the appended claims.

Young Warrior matmen looking to improve
By: BRUCE MORGAN Record Express Sports Editor email@example.com, Staff Writer
When Warwick's Cody Shoenberger walked off the mats last February at the District Three Wrestling Championships, he did so with a sense of optimism.
Not only would Shoenberger be returning for another season, but he was coming back with two District wins under his belt.
The future is now, and with Warwick ready to dive in to the 2011-12 season, Shoenberger has the distinction of being the Warriors' only returning District qualifier.
"We're looking for a lot out of (Cody) this year," Warwick boss Ned Bushong admitted.
That is particularly the case with a young squad surrounding him — and with depth being a big concern this winter. Warwick lost eight starters from the squad that finished 3-3 in Section One last year and bring back only 21 wrestlers for 14 weight classes.
Among those who have moved on include District qualifiers Bryan McCall (37-7), Ian Stoeckl (20-17) and Dylan Stauffer (14-17), along with Cody Stockdale, Trevor Havemann and John Devenney.
"Most of our team is young kids," Bushong said. "(But) they're working hard. It's a good bunch of kids. We'll do alright … We've got to really stay healthy, and you look at it and kind of figure, 'How much are they going to grow and what are they going to do off-season?'"
Although Warwick is young, there is plenty of promise throughout a lineup which will wrestle under a newly-adopted weight class format. At 106, Josh Charles is one of three sophomores starting for the Warriors — and one of eight on the squad. Last year with the junior high squad, he finished 24-0 and won an Elizabethtown championship. Another sophomore, Logan Stroh, won a fifth-place medal at Leagues last year and he will be moving up to the 113-pound class this winter.
"We have some good kids that aren't afraid to work, so they're going to improve," Bushong said. "And I think we're going to be in there and I think we'll surprise a few people … But they have to stay healthy. We can't afford injuries and we can't afford somebody getting sick."
Returnee Cody Diem — one of just three seniors on the squad — starts at 120. Last year, he competed in the 130-pound class.
"We're counting on (Cody) as a senior to do pretty well," Bushong said.
Junior Ethan Quinn, after seeing his promising freshman year cut short by an injury, returned last year to compete at 112 and he is back to fill the 126 spot. Junior 132-pounder Matt Mousetis also returns with two years of varsity experience. Junior Tyler Esbenshade is currently sidelined with an injury, but he could add depth down the line.
Moving into the middle weights, junior Evan Ney is a first-year varsity wrestler at 138, junior 145-pounder Colin Schnupp will be looking to build off of a solid 16-15 campaign last year, and junior Ryan Gray, up from the JV team, gets the starting nod at 152.
Shoenberger should be a steady point-scorer for the Warriors at 160, following a junior season in which he finished 31-15, and senior Mitch Mellinger, who wrestled as a sophomore, steps in at 171.
In the upper weights, sophomore Carson Snavely — who was 18-4 and placed at the E-town Tournament last year in junior high — is moving up to take the 195-pound spot, while junior Zach Sayevski starts at 220. Junior Tom Devenney, who was 16-6 last year and came within an eyelash of qualifying for Districts, returns at heavyweight.
"I expect a lot out of (Shoenberger and Devenney) this year," Bushong said. "In our Section, (Tommy) took fourth and the three guys that finished ahead of him were all seniors, so he should be there when you look at it that way. (Cody) was third in the Section last year and I think (Joe) Welk might have been ahead of him. He's back from Solanco. It's going to be tough … (But) we have some good potential. We have Devenney, Shoenberger, Schnupp, Charles, Stroh — we've got (five) right there that should win most of their matches."
With the bulk of their roster comprised of underclassmen, Bushong and his staff are just hoping to see steady progress.
"I think we have enough that we could have maybe six or seven guys qualify for Districts," Bushong said. "That would be placing in the top three in the Section. But it depends on how much they improve during the year and how much they're willing to work."
They will certainly have to work hard to compete against the likes of Solanco and Manheim Township in Section One. Bushong is predicting the Golden Mules and Blue Streaks to place at the top of the pack, with third and fourth place up for grabs.
"(Township) has four or five kids right through the lightweights and middle weights that they're going to be real hard to beat," Bushong said. "Solanco's going to be solid from top to bottom. The last three years, they cleaned up at the E-town tournament — I mean, nobody's come close to them. I look at it as it's going to be Solanco number one, Township number two and then it's going to be pretty much (teams battling for) third and fourth. That could be any of us. I mean, Cedar Crest has some good kids back, they're pretty solid. McCaskey always has some good athletes. Penn Manor has the numbers. Hempfield had a real good freshman class last year. So I'm looking at it and saying, 'OK, first and second, (Solanco and Township) are in there. Now it's going to be a battle as to who comes in third and fourth." More WHS MATMEN, page B-8

I saw and commented on another persons WoW collection not too long ago, and figured I might as well put up one of my collections.
So I more or less have every Metal Gear game that's been released within the US. I also have the Japanese collection on the far left there. I've kind of stopped since Peace Walker. I don't have the new HD Collection, and don't really intend to.
I don't know if I've just become disinterested, or am just growing out of it, but I don't have much of a desire to obsessively get everything as they're released as I used to. It might help that I just don't have as much money right now, and am no longer working. I'm also just about to graduate with my B.S. and am too busy stressing about getting my life started than to buy more games that I obviously have several copies of already.

Columbia Sportswear & CEO Back Same-Sex Marriage Initiative in Oregon
October 2, 2013 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Deputy Director of Marketing
Today Columbia Sportswear joined a cadre of Oregon businesses and corporations fighting to repeal the state's ban on same-sex marriage.
In addition, Columbia's CEO and largest shareholder Tim Boyle will personally support 2014 initiative to pass marriage equality in Oregon.
"It doesn't make any sense to exclude people from the constitutional rights they should have," Boyle told Willamette Week. "Frankly, this should have happened a long time ago."
Currently, HRC is on the ground with the Oregon United for Marriage campaign, working to secure the right for all Oregonians to marry the person they love.

Metal in the Mouth: The Abusive Effects of Bitted Bridles by Dr. Robert Cook
METAL IN THE MOUTH: The Abusive Effects of Bitted Bridles written by W. Robert Cook, FRCVS, PhD & Hiltrud Strasser, Dr. med. vet. PhD., 144 pages, including color images discusses in layman's language the negative effects of the use of a bitted bridle and shows why the new crossover bitless bridle makes riding simpler, safer, and more satisfying. The bit is the cause of over 100 harmful effects. First and foremost, a bit is painful and it frightens a horse. It makes it difficult for a horse to be happy in its work and for a rider to achieve that harmony so essential to a partnership. It also makes it difficult for a horse to breathe, stride, perform, and stay healthy. Learn more about the positive effects of a bitless bridle in this book.

Sign man now calls Marco home
Paul Sellers has always been a happy-go-lucky kind of guy, but found himself in an unsatisfying line of work in Chicago. In 1998, a hurricane and a career move toward happiness made all the difference in the world, dropping him on Marco Island and turning him into the "sign man behind the scenes," at Art Sellers Signs.
"My parents were living on Marco Island back in 1998 and called me up one day to ask me to come down from Chicago to help them button everything down for this hurricane named Georges that was coming their way," Sellers recalled. "Then, I was watching TV and I heard Al Roker say 'Marco Island,' and I said to myself, 'Al Roker said Marco Island,' along with the word 'hurricane,' and I was on the next flight to Florida."
Luckily, Georges veered off toward northern Florida, so Marco Island — along with the Sellers — were spared. But, the trip to Marco convinced Sellers of one thing — he had found the place he would like to relocate and an idea for a new career. "Since I had a few extra days down here, I went over to what was known as Marco Walk at the time and saw they had some small little stores there," Sellers recounted. "I kinda thought I was going to try something new that I didn't do up in Chicago."
Sellers owned a computer business in the Windy City at the time when a friend noticed a stained glass window that Sellers had drawn. "I always had a creative streak, and when I showed her that, she asked me, 'What are you doing in a computer shop? You should be doing artistic work.' She kinda convinced me at the time to do something different, something that I would enjoy. I was kind of tired of the computer scene, anyway.
"We did a lot of repairs ... we were really good and did really well," Sellers related. "But people would come in and they were upset about having their computer gone. It was like bringing their car to an auto shop — you know, 'I don't wanna fix the car, I just want it workin.' Or, 'How much time is it gonna take?'
"I just got tired of people being unhappy when they came to see me in that profession. And when I came down here I was doing the faux etch — the doors that look like they're really etched in glass — and I did things that people really wanted to see me for and were happy about what they saw. They were happy to come in the door and say, 'I'd like this.' Nobody wants to give anybody money, but they were happy to buy something because they want it, instead of being required to because their machine doesn't work."
Sellers, however, still does some computer work, although it's not really his focus; he still has a number of cables hanging on the wall. "So, I guess you could say I'm diverse and that's something I enjoy, which was definitely beneficial while I was growing the business," Sellers pointed out. "I'm at the point right now where I can definitely survive with the signage business by itself. But I'm certainly not turning down any other avenues, either."
Sellers is now known around Marco Island as "The sign guy." Prior to moving to his new location, adjacent to the popular watering hole known as the Sand Bar, on O'Neill's Alley, Sellers was located in the Town Center. He also sold gifts, but now is sticking to signs. "Dropping the giftware was one of my concerns, because I was changing the direction of the business," Sellers noted. "I didn't want to be as multi-purposed as I had been in previous times. It was just time for me to move on and go on with the signs alone. I had a couple of things going for me in that respect, in that I had received some equipment that isn't in every sign person's arsenal."
One especially important piece is a computer-controlled C&C router that enables Sellers to make things that cannot be done by hand. Not too long after Sellers got the router, Mackle Park was in the midst of building the current playground, with picket fence surrounding the area. In order to help defray the cost of the playground, people could pay to have their name engraved into the wood.
"I got my foot in the door by doing work for the City of Marco Island at the time, and I started doing the names on the pickets for them," Sellers said. "That was a project that lasted a long time and there were always more names coming in. That was something that enabled me to get to be known with the city, as well." As a result, Sellers has taken on a variety of other projects for city departments, along with being a licensed sign contractor with the county.
One of Sellers' most striking products is the unique etched glass annual award bestowed at the MICA Humanitarian of the Year ceremony. "I've been doing those for quite a number of years and am very proud of them," Sellers pointed out. "I've gotten into more awards like that since I've gotten into this new location two-and-a-half years ago, because now I have more space. I've also been able to get some more equipment and I'm able to do large-format printing now. Full color — as in banners, as well — is now available in signage and is becoming more and more the norm. It's standard, nowadays."
Another modern innovation Sellers features is long-lasting ink that is resistant to the high ultraviolet radiation exposure in Florida and is more durable and able to last longer. He has also begun doing colorful business cards and other printed materials. "I like to feature unique products," Sellers added, "such as an illuminated stand with a person's logo or product shining through, like an open house or paperwork you'd like to exhibit at a trade show. I also have an illuminated floor mat, as well, and a unique creation called a carpet graphic, with a removal logo attached to the thin-napped carpet. I'd like to take credit for these original ideas, but I won't. I do, however, keep my eyes open for things that are new and different in the industry, and then try to improve upon them, as well."
Finally, there is a safe, low voltage lighted sign with colored letters that can be customized for advertising. "I try to be something more than just a for sale sign shop," Sellers summed up, "and have something different for everyone." So says the "Sign man behind the scenes."

Travel Blogs from Konstanz
... every lane we change. Today's most tense passages were done without sat nav. Today we got lost for 8 miles - without sat nav. I'll willingly do the advert... Tomorrow will be easier because it has to be. About 100 miles to the schloss and therefore more time to find a campsite where hopefully we can relax for a couple of days. Germany has been pretty but also pretty tense. And ridiculously full. The pay-off? Pils at 50p a litre from Lidl. And the view to ...
Constance was Constant - Zurich Not so Much
... of Constance would leave their lights on and the bombers would think that it was part of Switzerland and not drop their bombs. Its right on the boarder. Full of history and amazing buildings and people were everywhere. It was great to walk through and enjoy. We thought about having dinner in this delightful town but because we were free camping decided to head back. We had our own party at the beast and took advantage of the fact that we had no neighbours and turned the music ...
The Pratts Go German (And Parisian, Too!)
... Andy was home from work. As it was around dinner time, we decided to take them out for their first meal in Germany, which was at a local Italian restaurant in Old Town. They really enjoyed the food at the Italian restaurant - my dad had his first German beer there! After dinner, we took them for gelato (naturally), and then headed back to our apartment to relax for the rest of the evening.

Sea Life
... but it was nice because we were in a spot we could see the beautiful lake. Before taking this trip, I studied the map to find out exactly where I needed to be and when...when we got to Konstanz. Maps and actually being in the situation are very different. I got off the bus and was all turned around. So, I walked toward the giant mall at the end of the street. I saw the sign for Sea Life but there were no directions. No "1/2 mile this way"...nothing showing me where to go. Great. ...

CHARLES DUELFER spent over 25 years in the national security agencies of the US government. He was involved in policy development, operations, and intelligence in the Middle East, Africa, Central America, and Asia. Duelfer was also involved in US nuclear weapons and space programs. Most recently, he was the top CIA officer directing the investigation of Saddam's regime and its WMD programs.
Duelfer's experience with the Iraq tragedy began in the 1980's as Washington considered its role regarding the Iran-Iraq war. During the 1990's, by virtue of his position at the United Nations, he was virtually the only senior American to have regular contact with the top members of Saddam's regime in Baghdad. At the same time he worked with the senior Washington officials in both the intelligence and policy areas of Washington. He saw how US policy and intelligence went wrong and he saw how Iraqi intelligence and policies went wrong. His experience and perspective is unique.
As Special Advisor to the Director of Central Intelligence for Iraq WMD, Duelfer led the Iraq Survey Group (ISG) that conducted the investigation of the scope of Iraq's WMD. The ISG was a unique intelligence organization of over 1700 military and civilian staff that investigated Iraq WMD programs. It used all available collection and analytic capabilities in a hostile environment. The Duelfer Report is the definitive work on the relationship of the Saddam Regime to WMD and was presented to the President and Congress in October 2004—shortly before the presidential election.
In the 1990's Duelfer was at the United Nations serving as the Deputy Executive Chairman and subsequently, acting Chairman, of the UN Special Commission on Iraq (UNSCOM) from 1993 until its termination in 2000. UNSCOM was the original group of UN weapons inspectors in Iraq that was at the friction point between Baghdad and Washington in regular crises until President Clinton ordered a limited bombing in response to Iraq non-cooperation in 1998.
Duelfer has recently headed a small entrepreneurial space launch company as well as consulting and lecturing. He is currently Chairman of Omnis, Inc.

Letter to the Editor: Murphy's Law in action
Vic Walker, Wichita Falls
I have a news flash for all who think the Carnival cruise ship should be banned from this world after everybody bleeds it dry through all kinds of frivolous lawsuits.
And any others who are bad-mouthing what happened without really thinking. One of the first things I was taught in boot camp was Murphy's law. What? You never heard of it? This could be a "teaching moment" for you.
Research it yourself (space limitation here, do an "Internet pause" as 501 Hanaba would say) you will remember it longer.
Anyway, take it from a former U.S. Navy sailor — anytime you leave port the possibility of something happening goes to sea as well (even of the nature of what happened to Carnival Triumph). Just imagine if you were a U.S. Navy submarine sailor or on an aircraft carrier with over 5,000 fellow sailors, or jet pilot or fly in a bomber.
When you board a plane do you require in writing a "guarantee" that the plane will not crash. I think not; it would never be granted nor should it — that possibility takes flight with every plane that takes to the air. BTW, the ground, they kissed, is probably just as "unsanitary" as some of the things they complained about on the ship.
No airline would ever fly, no ship would ever sail if they were required to guarantee no mishaps on board, great or small, that is not the way real life comes to us. You take it for granted that nothing will happen "to you" so you board that plane, take that cruise ... and then when something does go wrong you cry bloody murder and find a "money grabbing trail lawyer."
Gee, I wish I could have done that when I was in the military — I would be a very rich retiree, but not proudly retired.

You're not going to find a better cable for the price.

Unfortunately the cable had a "bare place at the end of the connector. i'm sure it came from the factory this way as it was packaged in plastic. rather than go to the trouble of boxing and returning i am going to install a new connector and check that there is no short before I run the cable. the cost and promptness of shipping was great

This was a replacement cable for a recent cable order which did not work. The replacement too would not pass the video signal and would do so by jiggling the BNC connector, I could get it to work as long as I held it in that position. This problem implies a quality control issue. These are probably not tested before packaging. Getting two non-working cables in a row is very frustrating and cost me time and money on the project and more inconvenience to send it back again.
