- Aedificantium enim unusquisque gladio erat accinctus.
- Nehemiah 4:18
"Where priest and people together face the same way, what we have is a cosmic orientation and also in interpretation of the Eucharist in terms of resurrection and trinitarian theology. Hence it is also an interpretation in terms of parousia, a theology of hope, in which every Mass is an approach to the return of Christ."
Joseph Ratzinger - The Feast of Faith"In those situations where homosexual unions have been legally recognized or have been given the legal status and rights belonging to marriage, clear and emphatic opposition is a duty. ... If all Catholics are obliged to oppose the legal recognition of homosexual unions, Catholic politicians are obliged to do so in a particular way, in keeping with their responsibility as politicians." CDF 2003

For contemplation…
"One of the few things in life you can be absolutely sure about is that, if Management tells you it doesn't like your Tone, you are getting something right."
"Latin is a precise, essential language. It will be abandoned, not because it is unsuitable for the new requirements of progress, but because the new men will not be suitable for it. When the age of demagogues and charlatans begins, a language like Latin will no longer be useful, and any oaf will be able to give a speech in public and talk in such a way that he will not be kicked off the stage. The secret to this will consist in the fact that, by making use of words that are general, elusive, and sound good, he will be able to speak for an hour without saying anything. With Latin, this is impossible."

"We as Catholics have not properly combated (the culture) because we have not been taught our Catholic Faith, especially in the depth needed to address these grave evils of our time. This is a failure of catechesis both of children and young people that has been going on for fifty years. It is being addressed, but it needs much more radical attention... What has also contributed greatly to the situation is an exaltation of the virtue of tolerance which is falsely seen as the virtue which governs all other virtues. In other words, we should tolerate other people in their immoral actions to the extent that we seem also to accept the moral wrong. Tolerance is a virtue, but it is certainly not the principal virtue; the principal virtue is charity... Charity means speaking the truth. I have encountered it (not speaking the truth) many times myself as a priest and bishop. It is something we simply need to address. There is far too much silence — people do not want to talk about it because the topic is not 'politically correct.' But we cannot be silent any longer."

Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Find a Quality Realtor. Support the Gospel of Life!
If you, or someone you know, needs to buy or sell a house, office, or any kind of domestic or commercial property anywhere in the world, call Real Estate For Life on 1-877-LIFE-US1. They connect you with an expert agent with a proven track-record from a local franchised broker or strong independent. When the sale is completed, the agent gives a portion of their fee to Real Estate For Life as a referral fee. Real Estate For Life gives 80% of that fee to one of the pro-life organizations they work with: a house with a value of $150,000 means $1000 goes to the pro-life organization. It doesn't cost you anything.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

For your consideration…
"One of the most dangerous errors is that civilization is automatically bound to increase and spread. The lesson of history is the opposite; civilization is a rarity, attained with difficulty and easily lost. The normal state of humanity is barbarism, just as the normal surface of the planet is salt water. Land looms large in our imagination and civilization in history books, only because sea and savagery are to us less interesting."
- C.S. Lewis
More food for thought:
"I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history."

Six months after teaming up to win marketing approvals for the prostate cancer drug Xofigo (alpharadin or radium Ra 223 dichloride), Algeta said its board of directors approved acquisition of the company by Bayer, after the German pharma-and-chemical conglomerate raised its bid for the Norwegian biotech by $500 million, to about NOK 17.6 billion (about $2.9 billion) cash.
The deal, disclosed by Algeta yesterday, comes less than a month after Bayer moved to acquire the company through an initial $2.42 billion "preliminary acquisition proposal." The deal would give Bayer sole control of Xofigo, an alpha-particle-emitting radiopharmaceutical delivered once a month via injection—and by extension, expand Bayer's portfolio of cancer-fighting drugs and candidates.
Algeta has proven attractive to Bayer because of its pipeline of radiation therapy candidates. The Norwegian drug developer specializes in developing anticancer therapeutics based on alpha-particle-emitting radionuclides, whose short range (typically less than 0.1 mm) and high linear energy transfer enables them to be used in molecular targeted radiation of tumors. When selectively delivered to tumor tissue, the alpha particles kill the tumor cells, leaving surrounding normal tissues unharmed.
While Bayer would pay Algeta NOK 362 ($58.90) per share cash, the acquisition also has financial benefits for the conglomerate. The deal would free Bayer from having to pay Algeta a share of profits and royalties under their up-to-€560 million ($765.6 million) collaboration deal inked in 2009, through which they teamed up to develop Xofigo. At the time, the companies said Algeta had a profit-share arrangement giving it an option for up to 50% co-promotion with Bayer.
Xofigo is indicated for men with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), symptomatic bone metastases, and no known visceral metastatic disease. The FDA approved Xofigo in June under its priority review program, allowing decisions up to six months faster on new drugs that appear to provide safe and effective treatment when no other satisfactory treatment exists, or offer a significant improvement over existing treatments.
Xofigo won marketing authorization from the European Union last month.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Google's Nexus 7 tablet is set to clock over 5 million units shipped this year, according to a report in Digitimes.The report quotes "Taiwan-based players in the supply chain" to say that strong holiday sales are expected to push the number of Nexus 7 units shipped over the 5 million mark, double that of Google's initial expectations of selling 2.5 million units this year.
At the end of the second quarter, Google expected shipments of 2.5 million Nexus 7s in 2012 but since then it has continually placed additional orders in view of booming sales, with the cumulative shipment volume in 2012 will reach 5.0 million units based on orders released, according to Taiwan-based players in the supply chain.While international vendors usually place orders for shipments to peak in October and November to meet year-end peak demand beginning in late November, Nexus 7 shipments are expected to remain at a high level of 700,000-1,000,000 units in both November and December, the sources pointed out.

Rapid Profit Method by Lisa Diane?
by crimsonbook Posted: 01/30/2010
Anyone heard or tried RPM? Those on Michael Cheney and Fabian Tan's lists would have received an email on this.#product reviews #diane #lisa #method #profit #rapid
- Charles HarperWhat is she teaching. I heard about it early in my journey in Internet Marketing. I think if you do a search you will find something on here about her. Expensive program as I recall. If you are just getting started and want to pay a premium price I might recommend Site Build It. Others will recommend that you do what you can here for free.
- Janis10Buying this one is really up to you but here is small recap of this method.
It's only a 40 page pdf-document with many OTO's before you get the
product itself. Those OTO's are from $297 to $1997
For $97 it's very very basic info
This is the basic idea of RPM.
1. You choose a market where you have an interest and you
know people are already spending money.
2. Then you identify a few of the experts in that market and hold a tele-training or webinar with those experts.

- crimsonbookCharles & Janis, thanks for the feedback! Think I'll pass on this one though
- probizlinkThank You, Thank You
- jhtbizA Big Thanks to janis10 for the helpful post re: the RPM Blueprint!
Clever tho. she is, I noticed that she does not give refunds, so you
saved me and the others some hard-earned money.
Thanks for taking the time to spell it out for those of us who were
intrigued, but suspicious...
All Good Things...
- Charles HarperTo those who were about to buy....here is a suggestion...
Form a mastermind with each other and DO it in your respective niches, just as Janis laid it out.
Get off of all of the mailings lists that promoted this to you until you have launched.
It is likely that they will sell you something else to distract you.
- marin7I've also been disappointed with her products - I spent $1000 on 30kpayday and it turned out being an mlm opportunity. Which might work fine for some but it's not what I was looking for, and guess what, no refunds. I probably should have known better as she lays it on pretty thick.
- Joel.SchibbelhuteThanks for the info. I just got the video today and she's dropped the price to "less than $50". But even at that price, with no refunds, I'll take a pass.
- perswealthShe doesn't give refunds? How does she even compete in the make money niche? I can't imagine she sells a lot of stuff... I can see someone with a big name and lots of respect doing this (e.g. Frank Kern), but a Lisa Diane? Never heard of her.....
- sallycevI get emails from her all the time. She signs them but they come from a Bonnie. I'd like to unsubscribe and stop receiving them but she's on every safe list so I can't because I also use many of them to market.
It is always suspicious when people don't give any refunds, especially when they are selling big ticket items!!
The other thing is that if she's making all that money and such a successful marketer, why isn't she inside here at the warrior forum? Or that some pretty well known marketers here have never heard of her?
You have to wonder.

Same experience as you. She did not deliver on the final phase of a product UNTIL the refund period had passed. And made a promise to give us resell rights on a product , the e version with a price point of $1,000 but NEVER told us we would not get it until she had sold out her stock of physical products. I waited over a year and it was still not available. A wolf in sheep's clothing, and no refund...very sleazy, stay as far away from her and Bonnie as you can..
- MemberWingI just wonder how this "no refunds" policy is actually executed?
Unless buyers are all sheep to ask for it via payment processing company.
In modern world you may always contact your credit card company with complaint or, if paid by Paypal - escalate it with Paypal and you likely will get money back.
It's very hard for seller to enforce "no refund", regardless of what he/she says on his salesletter.
Just wondering...
- leaddogHonestly a lot of people don't KNOW that they can do chargebacks like this...especially the newbies that she targets.
At least that was where I was in 2006 when I couldn't get performance out of Lisa Diane or Bonnie and wanted my money back. $2K up in a puff of smoke.
I didn't get a refund. You won't either. You will have to FIGHT for it. I didn't know how. But 4 years later I certainly remember her name.
Buyer beware.

This was tough to rate. The good stuff: The buildings are in good shape. The lodge was awesome with a wood burning stove, kitchen, comfy seating. The office also had seating area with a gigantic dvd library (need to check the dvd's out). Rec hall was huge, book library was enormous. Nice pond with campsites surrounding it. Also had an indoor pool. The grounds are huge with lots of places to hike and walk around. They have a disc golf course, a driving range and an archery range as well. The park is surrounded by horse ranches and is located about 25 minutes from Bend.
The not so good: The pool is at least a half mile walk from the sites. The disc golf course, driving range, and archery range were in serious need of maintenance. The pond itself was nice, the geese and ducks in it were very territorial and plenty of fowl poop for you to step in. As we were not owners, we were only allowed to stay in certain areas, and none of the sites allowed were level. Plus, the pond sprung a leak (ground rodent of some sort) and they had to turn on the irrigation systems to lower the level of the pond. If that didn't work, we were welcome to find another spot. The electric posts were only 30 amp and we had to find a site where the electric functioned, and wasn't melted or burnt out. If in fact the park did actually fill up, you would actually have to share the electric. Since there was one post for two sites.
We were treated well by the staff, but the sites for non-owners sites were a disappointment and owners weren't all that friendly. In the end, due to the sites and lack of sewer and proper electric, we rated on this on the lower end. We will not likely stay again. - JS Dobson

We stayed here with Coast to Coast. I understand some of the poor reviews, but really overall we liked it. We knew in advance that we wouldn't have sewer or 50 amp and we planned accordingly. We chose site 66, which we pulled in nose first and had a great view of the pond just a few feet in front of our big window. We think the best site for Coast to Coast people. Many others weren't level. The pool was far from the RV spaces and we chose to drive. It is a big and deep (8 ft.) indoor pool. We had it to ourselves and really enjoyed it. There is a lot of playground equipment, mini golf, ect. These are nice amenities, but need a little better upkeep. We did not use the bathrooms or laundry so I have no opinion about that. The drive to town was an easy 5 - 10 minutes. We will stay here again! - Fishen4trout

I am giving this such a low score because I was not happy at all, if you have coast to coast do not bother ,we were not told by cc or the lady when we drove up what cc gets until we got to our sites .cc is able to stay in the area by the pond which is full of kept and geese poop. You do. It have sewer hook up only members of this park, cc fails to tell you that when u make reservations and yes I asked, the lady who checked us in seemed to have an attitude when we asked questions, cc is only allowed washer and dryer in rec room, which has one of each, not allowed to use other, don't know why. We stayed one night, it wasn't worth the 10 dollars at all and wifi is 5 a night, don't waste your time move on to somewhere else, - Cdewitt

The park is small with mostly smaller spaces and fairly narrow roads. We are a big rig so we felt the impacts of our size. Our back-in site would have been challenging had the sites across from us been occupied. This challenge would vary by site. The sites across from us were pull throughs but seemingly situated in the middle of the road. There is nice landscaping and some tall trees throughout. The park is an rv park in one section and a mix of very long term rv's and older single wides in another. Verizon and utilities worked well. - PBuds

We looked at the park's web site and weren't sure that we wanted to stay. All I can say is, don't believe the pictures. A nice park, large sites, well landscaped. All sites are paved, there's grass at every site. Only negative, the roads into the park are a little tight. - ta96silver

We thought this was a wonderful place to stay given that it is basically in the city of Bend - feels quiet and isolated. Day use area separate - on the opposite side of the road/river from the campgrounds. Our space (B18) was very level and spacious. Lots of room to roam {even with doggie off-leash ;-) } - scramble up the rock hill to the east and wander along the river to the west. Fishing and tubing on the river. - rvericksons

Very nice state park. Not much visual separation, but sites are big and comfortable. Free showers, clean restrooms. Good location on the Deschutes River. - Don & Sonja
Jul 2013 - $26.00
Tumalo State Park is a unique green oasis amongst the drier climate of Bend. Tumalo Creek is perfect for tubing on a hot summers day and it is definitely a local favorite for picnics and day trips. The campground is located just across the street and is also nestled in the trees, but the forest here is not overly thick so be prepared to be getting some sun. The RV sites are fairly close together and are all back-in, but paved. Clean bathrooms as well as a solar shower-house! Best time to use these showers is late afternoon, early evening since the nights here do cool off into the low 50's so your morning shower will be chilly. Very close drive to Bend and all this beautiful area has to offer. Be sure to visit the Newberry Volcanic Monument about a half hours drive south of Bend. - Addicted Camper

This is a great park! The campground is several miles South of Bend along the Little Deschutes river. The sites are gravel and level. The campground is located among the pine trees and the sites are not too close together. There is a cute western themed town square with a small store. This campground is not on a main road and is not in town. - Another brick in the wall

We love this park! It's truly a campground with trees, rocks and wildlife rather than paved pads and grass. You get the real outdoors experience with the convenience of water, power and sewer hook-ups! But the listing for this park is wrong; it should be listed under the town of La Pine. And it's 24 miles west of La Pine in a beautiful but remote area so don't expect to run into town quickly if you forget something. Crane Prairie definitely caters to the fishing crowd and the lake is known for it's trophy "Cranebow" trout. This means the sites are very wide and well spaced so there is room for your RV and tow vehicle and even another vehicle and boat. One prior reviewer complained about the quality of the water but we didn't notice anything wrong with it so maybe this is a problem that has been fixed. Cell service is a bit spotty. My AT&T only worked by the boat ramp but our TracPhone worked fine at the campsite. There is only one plumbed restroom and a separate shower house/laundry in the park so plan to use the facilities in your RV. The shower requires LOTS of quarters and is really used by campers in the forest service campground next door. The store is minimally stocked with food and mostly sells fishing tackle. You can also rent boats there or arrange to keep your boat in their marina during your stay. They do have a fairly restrictive cancellation policy so make sure you are firm on your reservations at least two weeks ahead of time. We will definitely go back to Crane Prairie Resort. - SiskiyouSenior

This campground is more of a fishing resort. It is woodsy which I liked; however, the site we were in was narrow. My biggest complaint was the drinking water! It smelled and tasted very bad! We even filtered it three times! To bathe in it it, left you smelly. The laundry only had cold water and of course the water made the clothes smelly. The lake was very beautiful with the Three Sisters mountains in the back ground. - mivo49

First, this park is not in Bend. It is about 37 miles SW of Bend. Do not trust your GPS. Use their directions. This is not an RV resort, but it is a very nice campground. Our site backed up to the lake where we saw bald eagles and osprey. You can see snow covered mountains too. We couldn't stay the entire month we booked unfortunately because their power was not reliable. We did have LTE Verizon coverage in our spot which really surprised us for the location. I don't think all spots were this fortunate. We work from our rig, so this is important to us along with power. The owner told us the power was installed 35 years ago and couldn't confirm its reliability, so we had to leave after two nights unfortunately. On check-in, we weren't charged the $1 fee, and the balance was refunded when we had to leave early. The store and surrounding grounds were in tip top shape. If you do stay at this campground, you would be wise to have a power monitoring system on your rig. We would consider returning. It's a great location. You are remote, so just be prepared for it. It reminded me of places we'd tent and popup camped in the past. It had that vibe. - 2Fliers

This was the biggest and most expensive park we have stayed in over 14 states. It was also the nicest. The sites are 23 wide and 72 feet long. The Garden RV Park in Sisters is comparable and has better views of the Sisters Mountain Range but it was full so we came here. Very quiet and nice here. The sites are actually big enough for two RVs. Nice grass between sites. There are discounts for longer stays. - Gtwood65

Agree with previous campers, it is just a parking lot with power for 8 or so rigs. However, the sites have been newly blacktopped, re-striped and are a bit wider. Need to use jack pads on the new blacktop. Asked about the rv park plans and was told original plans were for a full service rv park, however the amount of money the City of Bend wanted made it impossible for the lodge, so parking lot it will remain. Little train noise, but no highway noise; nice, convenient safe spot for overnight or to visit area. Would definitely stay again. - Lawsons
Sep 2014 - $15.00
Per previous reviews, the sites are extremely narrow and sloped forward - we needed 6-inch blocks to level up. It is best to arrive before 5pm when cars start to park across from the sites, making backing in even harder. Despite these drawbacks, the location is perfect for visiting Bend for a fraction of the price of nearby parks. The Lodge is very welcoming and has great activities and food throughout the week. We would stay here again. - Mingo Papa
Jul 2013 - $15.00
Bend Elks: This seems less about hospitality and more about revenues. Just paint eight white stripes on the parking lot and install eight 30Amp posts. There is no restroom, shower, gym, lawn, picnic table, or host. Not a tree has been planted for shade or a faucet run near the 'sites'. At night, the obnoxious lights around the parking lot are impossible to completely block out. Makes one wonder if it's a safe neighborhood. There is noticeable traffic noise. On the upside, the wifi is good, it's convenient to Hwys 97 and 20, and there is good shopping nearby. - L. Allen

We stayed here last year for two weeks, and it is the same as we reviewed then for this two week stint at $125 a week. We were comfortable here, but it is not everybody's cup of tea. They have finally supplied toilet paper in those giant Texas toilet paper dispensers. The long termers may look seedy, but they are friendly, helpful, and kind. One of the worst places we stayed at was a high dollar park where everyone seemed cold and judgemental. I would definitely stay here than there. - mycelia

The place was tacky town. All but 3 or 4 sites were full time(monthly). Stereotypical trailer trash. Joe Dirt would have been at home. We were glad to have it as an emergency came up and we had to stay 2 weeks...at $75 a week. That's the best thing about the place. We felt safe but were cautious. Some people asked for $20 that they would pay back on Tuesday. Bring your own toilet paper to restrooms. - mycelia

Deschutes County Fair & Expo RV Park
It's a very nice park and the woman that works at the counter was really nice. I believe the park is about 8 years old, but you can't really tell. It's very clean, and neat. The pads are cement and the spots are surrounded by large gravel. There is a very nice dog area and the plantings around the campground are attractive, but no trees around the campsite. We were in full sun all day. Very clean laundry room, $1.50 to wash, 25 cents for 10 min. to dry.
The negatives would be 1) the dump hook up is inconvenient, as one would need a 30 ft. hose. We had to back up our motorhome (as did others) before we left to connect to the dump and the neighbors dump hook up was right outside our door. 2) Bathrooms were nice with the exception that there is something wrong with the drainage. Excess water from the showers drain to the middle of the bathroom, yet there is do drain there. Also, there is a bench that one could use to dress, but one would have to stand in the water to get dressed. Also, one walks through the water to get to the toilet stall. The men's and woman's rooms have the same issue. I mentioned the situation to the office staff and she stated that the county owns the park and it takes them a while to fix things. I think a small dam wall at each shower would solve the problem.
We camped in a 30' coach with a car dolly. Our site was a back in. We had room to store the dolly and have our car in front. There are some pull in sites, but we were unlucky and did not get one. WiFi was virtually non-existent and there was no cable. We would definitely camp here again. - Living the Life

We have stayed here before, it is industrial in design, plain and simple. it is clean, looks brand new but it is more than 5 years old. there is no cable or wi fi which brings it down in value. It is fairly close to all the big stores in Redmond, and a nice golf course and restaurant is in walking distance. There is another high end RV park ($60-$90) in Bend itself which people like, I like this simple quiet RV park. Handy to everything. - saturn7

Crazy entrance, very sharp turn if you're coming from Sisters. We had to disconnect our tow vehicle to get in.

Beautiful grounds, clean bathrooms, plenty of space between sites. One HUGE PROBLEM. The wifi is very, very slow to dead. The guy in the office told me it must be "sun spots." (Either he is an idiot or thinks I am.) What a joke. For a 5 Star resort to have this kind of wifi service is TERRIBLE. Also be aware of crowing roosters, ducks, geese, etc., from the Secret Garden that will awaken you at 4:30 am every morning. - Phoenixaway

Rome: You can go market to market, show to show and hear the shows and they all sound pretty similar. I figured if I was going to have any chance at all, the show had to be different. So I don't think I revolutionized anything, but I think I can sit here confidently and say it's a different show and I'm a different host.
Rome: The term 'clone' (Rome fan) is both slightly derisive, but at the same time it's a term of affection. They're my people. These are my people. I would not have a show, nor a career, nor a Tour Stop without my listeners. I'm nothing without these people, but at the same time, if I don't keep them in check, who will?
Rome: My old man used to tell me 'why don't you go outside and do something? Play ball, tennis.' And I'd be like, but, Dad, there's six football games on TV today.
Rome: If you do what I do, ESPN is obviously the place you want to be. I was pumped when Mark Shapiro brought me back to the network and am even more fired up now to be doing it on a daily basis.
Rome: If Tim thinks the dress code is retarded... what do you think he thinks about getting tossed from the bench for laughing? (On Tim Duncan being thrown out of a game on April 15, 2007)

The momentum a delegate front-runner had coming in to the Pennsylvania primary less than a month ago apparently dwindled.
Sen. Hillary Clinton (D) New York, won the keystone state in Tuesday night's primary event, defeating Sen. Barack Obama (D) Il. with a win of 55 percent of the vote, over Obama's 45 percent.
Clinton's win can be credited partly to her win of blue-collar workers, women and whites.
The results of the Pennsylvania primary essentially wrote themselves. Obama, the self declared under-dog, lost the state to the predicted favorite.
"For six weeks Senator Obama and I have criss-crossed this state side by side making our best case. You listened and today you chose," said Clinton.
In a race for every delegate that has, for better or worse, lasted as long as it has, neither candidate seems ready to throw in the towel.
"We're coming to the end of the process. We've won twice as many states. We've won the popular vote by a substantial margin, we've got a very big lead in pledged delegates. We've competed in that respect, win or lose," Obama said Tuesday.
"It's been an amazing year, but it's also an exhausting year," said El Paso County Democrat Chairperson John Morris.
Despite the excitement, Morris thinks many voters are ready to see some light at the end of the tunnel.
"They're worried about internal damage to the party, because it's really all about a victory in November," he said.
The party first has to make it to the National Convention in Denver this August, about two months before one candidate has to take on all other presidential opponents, only after months trading verbal punches with each other.
"I think people would like to see the convention as it's been for the past 50 years, as a show of support for the presumptive nominee as opposed to an actual fight," Morris said.
With a Clinton win in Pennsylvania, the front runners stand poised to ring the bell for the next round.
There are nine more primary contests ahead, starting with Indiana and North Carolina on May 6.

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 08/183,560 filed Jan. 19, 1994, now abandonded.
The field of the invention is battery powered medical equipment, and particularly, indicators of the remaining battery capacity on such equipment.
Mobile equipment is often battery powered so that it can be moved to any location and used without the need of an electrical power outlet. One such device, for example, is a mobile x-ray unit which is moved rapidly from patient-to-patient in the emergency department of a hospital. Such units must always have enough battery capacity available to produce a diagnostically useful x-ray, and if it is self-propelled, enough capacity to return the unit to its recharging station.
Battery powered medical equipment requires some means for indicating the remaining battery capacity. Typically, this takes the form of a voltmeter which indicates battery voltage. However, as shown in FIG. 1, because the battery voltage drops very little over much of the battery's usable capacity, and drops linearly over an even smaller portion of its usable capacity, this method of indicating battery capacity is not reliable. Normal voltage profile differences between battery manufacturers as well as changes in voltage profiles as the battery is cycled during normal use can result in misleading capacity indications. Such a variation is shown by the dashed line 2 in FIG. 1, where the battery voltage drops slightly at the outset and remains fairly constant until very little charge is remaining.
The difficulty of measuring battery capacity based on voltage is increased where accuracy is required while the battery still has substantial remaining charge. As shown in FIG. 1, when the battery is nearly discharged the voltage drops substantially and a warning indication based on low voltage may accurately indicate the remaining charge shown by cross hatching 3. On the other hand, where the warning indication must be made with a larger remaining charge as indicated by the cross hatching 4, the measurement of battery voltage may be a very inaccurate indication. For example, the measured voltage may properly indicate the remaining charge at dashed line 5 on a new battery, but the same voltage may trigger a much earlier indication at dashed line 6 after the battery is cycled a number of times.
The present invention relates to an improved battery capacity indicator, and particularly, to one which measures the actual battery usage and subtracts the used capacity from the known fully charged battery capacity to arrive at a remaining battery capacity that is indicated to the user. The battery usage may be measured directly by integrating battery current over time, or it may be measured indirectly by integrating over time the known current requirements of each mode of equipment operation.
A general object of the invention is to provide an accurate indication of remaining battery capacity. The capacity of the battery is known from the device's specification, for example, 20 ampere-hours. By measuring the current drawn from the battery during its use and integrating over time, a running total of the ampere-hours consumed is maintained and can be subtracted from the rated full capacity to indicate remaining battery capacity. This measurement is completely independent of battery voltage and is not, therefore, subject to the variation discussed above.
Another object of the invention is to provide an indication of remaining battery capacity without the need for any special sensors or measuring devices. The equipment drawing current from the battery has a finite number of operating modes, and each of these modes draws a known amount of battery current. The used battery capacity can therefore be measured indirectly by integrating over time the known current demand of each mode of operation as it is used. No separate current or voltage sensors are required.
FIG. 1 is a graphic representation showing how battery voltage declines as a typical lead-acid battery is discharged;
FIG. 2 is an electrical block diagram of a portable x-ray unit which incorporates a preferred embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 3A and 3B are flow charts of programs executed by the unit of FIG. 2 to practice the present invention.
Referring particularly to FIG. 2, a mobile x-ray unit is operated by a programmed microprocessor 10 which receives commands from a set of switches 11-15 that indicate its mode of operation. When a switch 9 is closed, the microprocessor 10 and other electrical components of the x-ray unit are powered by a rechargeable battery 20, which in the preferred embodiment is a lead-acid battery. The battery 20 drives a power supply 21 which provides electrical power of the desired voltage to the electronic circuits, including microprocessor 10, and it supplies much larger amounts of power to a number of other devices. These other devices include a drive motor 22 which propels the x-ray unit from one location to another, and a field light 23 which illuminates the area of the patient which will be x-rayed. When an x-ray is taken, the battery also supplies power to x-ray preparation circuits 24 that prepare an x-ray tube 25 for an exposure by heating its filament and rotating its anode. A high voltage generator 26 is enabled during the prescribed exposure time to provide the prescribed MA dose.
In response to commands input through the switches 11-14, the microprocessor 10 energizes relays 30-33 to operate corresponding contacts 34-37 in circuit with the operating elements 22-26. The microprocessor 10 thus controls which elements receive current from the battery 20 and for how long. As will be described below, this is used to measure the current discharged from the battery 20 and to provide an indication of the battery condition on a display 40.
There are five distinct loads on the battery 20 when the x-ray unit is turned on. These include: "idle" energy which is required by the electronics power supply 21; "drive" energy which is required by the motor 22 to propel the unit; "field light" energy which is required when the light 23 is turned on; "prep" energy which is required by circuit 24 to prepare the x-ray tube 25; and "x-ray" energy delivered by the tube 25 during the prescribed exposure. All of these loads except the drive motor 22 are relatively constant, known values. In the preferred embodiment, the drive motor current is assumed to be constant at a level required to propel the unit at top speed on a level surface. For these modes of operation, the energy discharged from the battery 20 is as follows:
idle energy=elapsed idle time�300 mA (1)
drive energy=elapsed drive time�3000 mA (2)
field light energy=elapsed light time�2500 mA (3)
prep energy=elapsed prep time�3000 mA (4)
The x-ray energy discharged is determined from the exposure prescription:
x-ray energy=cumulative exposure energy�conversion factor,(5)
"conversion factor" is a measure of the x-ray generator efficiency and is 13 in the preferred embodiment.
Referring particularly to FIG. 3A, approximately every 5 seconds the microprocessor 10 executes a program which updates the display 40 with a value indicating the remaining battery capacity. In the preferred embodiment this is a percentage of full battery capacity and it is calculated as indicated at process block 50 using the above equations (1) through (5) and the following:
capacity=capacity-idle energy-drive energy-field light energy-prep energy-x-ray energy.
This is converted to a percentage as follows:
%=capacity/fully charged capacity�100.
Timers 41 are maintained for each mode of operation, and these are then reset to zero as indicated at process block 51 and the cumulative exposure energy is reset to zero at 52. The updated % value is then output to the display 40 at process block 53.
During the operation of the x-ray unit a program shown in FIG. 3B is executed periodically to update the mode timers 41. A clock 54 in the microprocessor 10 generates an interrupt every 25 milliseconds and the system is vectored to this program. As indicated at decision block 55, a test is made to determine if another second has elapsed, and if so the current mode(s) of operation is determined at decision blocks 56-59 and the appropriate mode timer(s) 41 is incremented one second at corresponding process block 60-63. The elapsed time in each mode of operation is thus accumulated for use by the above-described program to calculate the remaining battery capacity.
Two other programs are important to the implementation of the invention. The first is a program which controls the operation of the x-ray tube 25 during an exposure. In addition to its other functions, this program updates the "cumulative exposure energy" number used in equation (5) each time an exposure is performed. This is simply a multiplication of the prescribed mA dose times the prescribed exposure time, times the x-ray tube voltage. A second program is executed when the charge request switch 15 is closed. In addition to energizing a relay 65 to close a switch 66 and thereby connect a battery charger 67 to the battery 20, this program updates the value of "capacity" to reflect the increasing charge on the battery 20 as recharging progresses and to indicate the percentage of battery capacity available on display 40. At the completion of the recharging sequence, the battery is fully charged and the "capacity" value reflects this fact. When the display 40 is subsequently updated, it will indicate 100%.
It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications can be made to the preferred embodiment described above without departing from the spirit of the invention. In addition, while the invention has particular application to a mobile x-ray unit, it can be applied to other battery operated equipment where an accurate indication of remaining battery capacity is required.

Recent political and legislative developments could re-energize the discussion on performance management and focus government attention on the issue.
After the pay freeze: 5 ways to keep performance up
One such development is the Telework Enhancement Act that President Barack Obama signed into law in December. It requires agencies to establish policies for their employees to work from locations outside the office. And that, experts say, can't be done without developing outcome-based performance measures.
"There's always been a need for performance standards in government, but attendance has been used as the default instead," said Jon Desenberg, senior policy director at the Performance Institute. "That's not possible with telework."
The boost in Republicans' standing in the new Congress — into the majority in the House and with greater numbers in the Senate — could also bode well for performance management because it has traditionally been a Republican issue. For example, it was a very public issue during the Bush administration, as exemplified by the President's Management Agenda.
However, the new Congress could also bring some pain for government employees. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) has recommended going beyond the recent across-the-board federal pay freeze by also halting step increases and has said he will introduce legislation to that end.
But such a move could promote even more discussion about performance management, Desenberg said.
"Unlike the Bush administration, the current administration hasn't really gotten involved with performance management," he said. "With Republicans coming back into power, we'll likely see it [come] to the fore again."

I agree wholeheartedly that Republicans pay more attention to performance management. But the approach this time is likely to be much more punitive than under President Bush. Say what you want about the previous Administration, there was a sincere interest in promoting better Federal management, and not just punishing Feds or privatizing their jobs. The approach from Mr. Chaffetz and others is likely to be much different. And on the Senate side, a huge void has been left with the retirement of George Voinovich, a champion of sound management and of Federal employees in general. Sad to say, we will not see his like again soon.

Title: Schedule for pollen and nectar for bees in Austin
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:For beekeeping in western Travis County (Cuernavaca at Bee Caves) I need to know what nectar and pollen is flowing when. I have asked my local beekeeping club, but they are in Blackland Prairie and don't know. Do you? What I see is juniper, live oak, prickly pear, yucca, yaupon and possumhaw holly, Lindheimer silk tassel--basically what you find at Wild Basin Wilderness preserve plus invasives like Nandina and Asian Jasmine.
Bees are somewhat out of our range of expertise in native plants, but if you demanded a quick answer from us on when nectar and pollen was flowing, we would say it would be when the flowers are in bloom. In fact, we are not even sure we understand what your question is. Are you asking what flowering plants already in existence in range of your beehives will be flowering at a certain time? Or do you want to know what plants to plant to feed bees from your beehives? Since we begin this by knowing nearly nothing at all about bees, we found this website from outdoorplace.org Backyard Beekeeping, which is probably all things you already knew but at least it's a start.
As you no doubt know, there has been a disturbing trend of the bee population declining and, in some areas, almost disappearing. Giving them a new habitat will be one small step in reversing that trend, we hope. First of all, just for an overview, here is an excellent article, "What's the Buzz on Planting a Bee Garden?" by Stephen Buchman. Next, since there are many similarities and interchangeable information on planting for bees, wildflower meadows and butterfly gardening, go to the "How To Articles" and, in particular, read the articles on Wildflower Meadow Gardening and Butterfly Gardening Resources.
The only way we know of to find out if a specific plant is blooming and will attract your bees is to go to our Native Plant Database, look up that plant and find out if it is a bee-pollinated plant. That material is not always going to be available, but we will try to address the ones you named:
Juniperus ashei (Ashe's juniper) - nothing to attract bees
Quercus fusiformis (plateau oak) - nothing to attract bees
Opuntia engelmannii var. lindheimeri (Texas pricklypear) - flowers are nectar source, blooms May and June
Yucca constricta (Buckley's yucca) - flowers are a nectar source for yucca moth, the yucca pollinator
Ilex vomitoria (yaupon) - both male and female bloom in April and May, attracts insects
Ilex decidua (possumhaw) - same as above, but blooms March to May
Garrya ovata ssp. lindheimeri (Lindheimer's silktassel) - attracts birds
Now, if your question is what you should plant to attract your bees, we accumulated a list of bee-friendly plants for Austin in answer to a previous question. We will reproduce this list, and you can follow each plant link to our page in the Native Plant Database on that plant, find out when that plant blooms and, under Benefits, learn about its production of nectar. We would also suggest you get out and walk around in the area where you wish to keep bees, and see if you can find any wild bees feeding on plants, and try to determine what those plants are.
You would be wise to elect to plant only native plants. Sticking to plants native to your area is important in establishing and maintaining some sort of natural balance for the bees and other pollinators that will be patrons of your garden. You surely already know to avoid spraying herbicides or pesticides, which can certainly disturb the bee population, and natives are far less likely to fall prey to the pests that might need to be artificially treated. The plants we have listed are all native to Texas and should do well in the Austin area. Liatris elegans (pinkscale blazing star) Gaillardia pinnatifida (red dome blanketflower) Monarda citriodora (lemon beebalm) Echinacea purpurea (eastern purple coneflower) Rudbeckia hirta (blackeyed Susan) Clematis drummondii (Drummond's clematis) Coreopsis grandiflora (largeflower tickseed) Solidago nemoralis (gray goldenrod) Lantana urticoides (West Indian shrubverbena) Ratibida columnifera (upright prairie coneflower) Plumbago scandens (doctorbush) Chrysactinia mexicana (damianita) Refer to our list of Native Plant Suppliers to find nurseries or seed companies in your area that sell native plants.
