Recently I received a letter from the CEO of a not-for-profit corporation that is dear to my heart. After seven years of leadership, he said, he believed it was time for him to step down. The first reason he gave was that the organization needed new vision for a new millennium. As noble as that sounded, I did not buy it. The second reason struck me as authentic.

The rut is not always kind. A prime example of that point is the eight-point buck found dead outside the Millerstown VFW last week.
In the midst of chasing two doe across Market Street the morning of Nov. 15, it's believed the buck lost its footing and slid across the sidewalk into the VFW's front door, breaking its neck, said post commander Bruce Hengst.
One of the doe hit the side of the building, but managed to survive, Hengst said. The buck wasn't so fortunate.
"It was in the middle of town, which is what is funny about it," Hengst said. Ever the hunter, the commander noted, "It was a real nice buck."
The randy deer scratched the door, but didn't break into the building. Repairs "won't be much," Hengst estimated. "We'll put some paint over it, and maybe replace a piece of trim. There's not much damage to worry about."
Hengst wasn't in town when the incident occurred. He came back from turkey hunting up north to find the news to be the talk of the town. Members of his post are glad the deer didn't manage to break through the locked front door because "it could have done some damage."
It was a freak accident, Hengst said, but he has heard stories of a similar incident years ago.
The run-in has given members an idea for a new hunting spot.
"We were kidding each other, saying we were just going to sit on the front step during deer season," Hengst said. "We couldn't believe it happened."
As for the buck, Hengst said it was taken by some locals. "I'd rather have (the buck) used instead of it going to waste."

A Bethlehem Township woman driving drunk was charged with aggravated assault after being found by Pennsylvania State Police passed out in her car on a ramp off of Route 33, court records say.
Police were called to the ramp to Henry Road in Bushkill Township about 2:45 p.m. Friday for an unconscious female in her vehicle, records say.
When police arrived, they saw Malinda G. Horninger, 44, of the 3900 block of Bruce Lane, sitting in the driver's seat and her Subaru Outback parked and running, records say.
Horninger's head was slumped back and her seat belt was on, records say.
Police said they attempted to wake her, at first unsuccessfully and could smell alcohol on her, records say.
When she was coming to, police asked to see her driver's license twice, records say, and she handed them a can opener the first time and her cell phone the second time.
When she was asked if she was drinking or to perform a sobriety test, Horninger replied "(expletive) off", records say.
When a second officer responded to the scene, Horninger allegedly responded the same way. When she was placed under arrest for suspicion of driving under the influence and asked to exit her vehicle, Horninger refused twice before being forcibly removed, records say.
Before being placed in handcuffs, Horninger punched one officer twice.
Police were able to get Horninger into a patrol car and she was transported to St. Luke's Hospital in Bethlehem Township, where she refused to submit to a blood test for the suspicion of driving under the influence, records say.
Horninger was arraigned in front of District Judge Jacqueline Taschner on charges of driving under the influence, simple assault, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, harassment and restriction on alcoholic beverages, records say.
She was place in Northampton County Prison in lieu of $25,000 bail with a 10 percent option.

The unanimous jury awarded $7,231,397 to Soma Mandal, a Manhattan internist who lives in Jersey City. The award includes $3 million for pain and suffering and $4 million for future lost earnings, following a trial that began April 27 before Superior Court Judge Mark Baber.
The jury found on May 17 that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey was 75 percent liable and Modern Facilities Services of East Hanover, which manages the station, was 25 percent liable.
Ron Marsico, a Port Authority spokesman, said, "We respectfully decline to comment" on the verdict or whether the agency will appeal it.
Christopher Hagar of Morristown, Mandal's attorney, said today his client's injury has had a major impact on her ability to practice medicine.
Hagar, who tried the case with his partner, Kevin Barber, said that at the time of the accident on March 18, 2007, Mandal, who was 35 at the time, was on her way into New York to NYU Medical Center where she was an attending physician in addition to building her own private practice.
He said because of the injury she no longer has full use of her right arm, her dominant arm, and had to stop working for NYU Medical Center.
"You're minding your own business and next thing you know your arm is snapped in half," Hagar said.
He said Mandal was walking on a sloping interior walkway, known as the North Corridor, at the Newport-Pavonia PATH Station, en route to the train platform, when she slipped on a rubber mat and fell on her right arm.
Her lawsuit, filed in October 2007, said she required immediate six-hour surgery to stabilize her fractures with screws and wiring.
Hagar said the majority of Mandal's patients are women who come to her for routine procedures, but "she can no longer do pap smears" because she cannot use the instruments properly because of her injury.
"She must refer those patients away to other doctors," he said.

Officials hope to nail down the details of a law enforcement services contract between the city of Cornelius and Washington County by early April, according to Cornelius Police Chief Ken Summers.
Last week, the Cornelius City Council unanimously voted to dissolve the city's police department – filled with long-cooking internal turmoil – and contract with the Washington County Sheriff's Office. Developing a contract is the next step. Once finalized, the three-year agreement will need approval by both the city and county.
Summers gave a short update on the contract Wednesday, Jan. 29, to the Cornelius Police Department's citizen advisory board, or COPCAB. Once the agreement is written and approved, the police services change will be "full steam ahead," he said.
Summers said the City Council will be interested to hear what board members think about the contract in its completed form. The chief also said he has frozen police department spending because of the agreement with the sheriff's office. The board did not have many questions for Summers.
Under the contract, the city's police chief position will be eliminated and replaced with a sheriff's office lieutenant, who will be part of the city's management team.
Lt. Gene Moss, who has been picked for the acting chief position, was also at Wednesday's meeting along with sheriff's Commander John Koch. Moss currently supervises the countywide narcotics and gang teams.

In other meeting business, sheriff's Deputy Jason Hermann gave the board a quick rundown of what gang activity looks like in Cornelius.
Hermann, a gang enforcement officer, said residents in Cornelius will see two main sets of gangs: Norteños and Sureños.
"You're going to see these two factions fighting on your streets everyday," he said.
Much of the fighting, which happens countywide, goes unreported, said Hermann, who is one of six members on the county's Interagency Gang Enforcement Team. Local gang members range in age from about 12 to 40 years old.
Hermann said he and the other cops on his team spend a large chunk of time in Cornelius, where gangs are an ongoing problem. Law enforcement is starting to see generations of gang members in the area.
Hermann said cops see gang activity in both the north and south sides of Cornelius. South 12th Avenue and Ivy Street, he said, can be a hot spot for fighting.
Graffiti has been an issue in Cornelius. Members of the board have worked with Cornelius police to remove graffiti, most of which is gang-related, across the city. Moss told the board they could explore different ways to combat the city's problems with the vandalism.
More information about gangs in Washington County is available on the sheriff's office website.

Deon Grant was impressed by Greg Jones when he first saw the young, undersized guy play this summer. The veteran safety just didn't know who Jones was.
Jones took off his helmet. And Grant still didn't have a clue who it was.
"Then they gave me his full name and where he played," Grant recalled today, "and I was like, 'Okay, I know him.' "
Now, everyone will know who Jones is.
One day after news broke the Giants will be without middle linebacker Jonathan Goff for the rest of the season due to a torn ACL in his right knee, the spotlight quickly shone on Jones, the rookie sixth-round pick from Michigan State. Though the team portion of practice is closed to reporters, it wasn't difficult to figure out who was working with the first team in the middle today.
He was the only true middle linebacker left on the roster — a rookie who has gone from
third-stringer to starter in four days.
"I didn't think it would happen this fast. I thought it would be a more gradual thing," Jones said after practice today. "I just want to be prepared. I feel like I am prepared and I have to get ready for this game."
Yes, he does.
After working out veterans (and former Giants) Chase Blackburn and Kawika Mitchell today, the team decided to pass for now. It's possible the Giants might be waiting until next week because the full-season salary of a vested veteran is guaranteed if he's on the roster Week 1.
So at this point, the Giants' best option — at least for Sunday's opener against the Washington Redskins — is Jones, who had 10 tackles, a sack and a blocked punt in the preseason.
"He's a good football player or he wouldn't be here," coach Tom Coughlin said. "Sometimes, it's just time to step it up."
That time is now for Jones, a two-time All-American at Michigan State who would have been drafted much higher if not for concerns about his size. At 6-foot and 248 pounds, Jones is a bit on the shorter side, but not by a whole lot. He's also rather stout.
"I think he's got that force, that inertia," Coughlin said. "He's always been an outstanding tackler and a physical player and I think you can see that."
If Jones gets the start, the Giants will likely make accommodations to ease his burden, with weak-side starter Michael Boley perhaps wearing the speaker in his helmet to receive the play calls from defensive coordinator Perry Fewell.
But it will still fall on Jones to yell out audibles and adjustments for his teammates to follow. That's quite the responsibility for a player whose NFL career began only five weeks ago.
"I do wish I had that time," Jones said the offseason workouts and minicamps canceled on account of the lockout. "I do."
Too late for that.
"It is too late," he said. "I'm taking steps forward. I'm not really worried about it. I'm just getting ready to go."
Boley has advised Jones to be assertive in his calls — even if he's unsure whether they're the right ones.
"I've always told my 'Mike' linebacker, even with Jon: 'You run the show, so whatever you call and as long as we're all on the same page, we're right,' " Boley said. "If one person makes a mistake but everybody makes that same mistake, you're right."
Jones is clinging to such advice from veterans who, if they're nervous about Jones being the centerpiece of the defense, aren't showing their fear.
"I'm a hard grader on myself because I want to make plays," Jones said. "But those guys have been helpful to me to say, 'Hey, calm down. We know you can do it, just do it.' "

yes, want to filter root data and as well sub store data as well through searchfield.
can you help for the same.
Thanks in Advance !!!
Hahahaha�. I finally found it !! I created a workaround to filter the nested list
Ok lets assume the default documentation data :
Your model should have the following fields :Code:var data ={ name:'Don Griffin', title:'Senior Technomage', company:'Sencha Inc.', drinks:['Coffee','Water','More Coffee'], kids:[{ name:'Aubrey', age:17},{ name:'Joshua', age:13},{ name:'Cale', age:10},{ name:'Nikol', age:5},{ name:'Solomon', age:0}]};
Now, if you want to filter your nestedList and only show the parents who (say) have a kid named "Cale" you do the following :Code:fields : [{name : 'name', type : 'string'}, {name : 'title', type : 'string'}, {name : 'company', type : 'string'}, {name : 'drinks', type : 'auto'}, {name : 'kids', type : 'auto'}, //This is the important one {name : 'age', type : 'integer'},]
1. Don't make a nested list component. Make only a list component and feed it the nested data above.
2. Use the filterBy function as below :
Now to the user it still looks like a nested list is being filteredCode:MyApp.stores.ListStore.filterBy(function(record,id){var theseKids = record.data.kids; //This takes the kids array using the "auto" type from the data and //feeds it into our variable. var flag = false; for(var i=0; i<theseKids.length; i++){if(theseKids[i].name.indexOf('Cade') != 0)flag = true;} return flag;});
If you need the data to look like a nested list all you need to do is use the NavigationView component to pull the data from the itemTap event and push a new view of a list with that array of data.
Hope this helps somebody

Why I'm not in the Catholic Community
1) The Priests themselves
Ohhh my, there are some HUGE issues with the way the priesthood is set up. Yes, there are some great priests out there and I really have no issues against good people doing great work for God. What I do have an issue with is Priests and their relationship with their sexual sides...or lack thereof.
I've always maintained that human beings have three aspects to themselves: the physical, the mental and the spiritual. You're golden if you manage to balance all three of those in your life...you're also very fortunate if you. For me, I was/am spiritual unbalanced...for the priesthood, they are physically unbalanced. They neglect their sexual selves by being celibate. Each priest is sexually unbalanced in a way that is extremely unhealthy for the body, and I would argue for the mind as well. I know, we've seen some very disturbing sexual crimes in the Catholic church, but I'm not convinced that is because of the celibate nature of the priesthood. What I'm more concerned with is that priests are supposed to be our spiritual guides to being human. How can they effectively fulfill that role if they are missing an entire piece of the human experience?
2) Sex, Africa and AIDs
Christians in general have hangups about sex. They love it, but they hate themselves so much for it. This almost relates to #1, but this time it's the Catholic Church's external efforts and attitudes towards sex that I have an issue with. They frown on extramarital sex. They frown on use of condoms. They frown on masturbation. It's no wonder Christians are so dysfunctional...they're all backed up ;)
What's probably most criminal is their whole stance on AIDs...especially in Africa. Go ahead on Google your heart out, but the Catholic church and their activities in Africa are well documented. They are preying on the uneducated...keeping them in the dark while this disease kills. It's disgusting.
3) Recruiting
I remember going to a Catholic wedding for a young couple some years ago. A large portion of the ceremony was directed at recruiting the couple's children into the Catholic church. I sat there, just flabbergasted wondering what gave this priest the idea that these kids would even want to be Catholics. They weren't even born yet and yet this guy has already decided what their spiritual path will be.
Actually, I shouldn't pick on just the Catholic Church on this one. This is an issue for all of the major religions. The decree that one is a Christian, or Muslim or Jew just because your parents are. If God's message is universal and speaks to the human spirit, then that very fact should be enough to let the child find their own path...not to have it dictated to them by birth.
That's it for now...but I do want to hear from others on this.
2 comments:
I was raised Catholic and have nothing but disdain for the idiots who brainwashed me in that shitty school and church. I came out of there intensely hateful towards homosexuals, absolutely certain that they were violating at least a few fundamentals of human decency. I'm not sure when that stupidity got out of my mind. To be fair, the education outside of religion and sex were pretty good (no creationism, or possibly worse since it's more dishonest, intelligent design) and another Catholic church that my family began to attend was much more open-minded and loving. It gets in trouble a lot for things like actively rejecting the hierarchy's call to not give communion to unrepentant homosexuals.ReplyDelete
It would be pointless to try to measure the relative ignorance promotion efforts of any major religion (except perhaps Buddhism, which seems to stay out of the way of reality), but, nvm, I did just say...
1) The material world is supposed to be subordinate to the spiritual and by rejecting it temptation can be avoided. Though I don't know why so many religious extremists are so damn rich. Also, the Vatican.
2) The Pope did sort of kinda maybe make half a possible step with his "you can use condoms to stop AIDS, just not pregnancy" declaration. Not quite sure how that works, but at least he stopped claiming condoms promote the spread of AIDS.
3) As much as recruiting annoys me, I cannot say I blame them. If you knew the one and only key to eternal life and bliss, the only way to avoid eternal damnation and suffering, wouldn't you want to spread that? Of course there is the strange level of confidence that each faith has the exact correct way...
I am still a "practicing" Catholic. I put it in quotes because it's really a forced effort. The reason behind that are another story though. But I have severely questioned the reasons why I still practice due to my anger I have toward the Church and mainly it's dogmas.ReplyDelete
It's really came to me when one of my best friends (who died recently)admitted to me he was gay. I was the one of the last of his close friends he told. He even admitted he told some of his friends who are openly homophobic before he told me. He said we was afraid that I would disown him, hate him, mock him, or something worse. You see, he knew I was Catholic, and he knew that the Church's stance is that gays and lesbians were at best, sick, or at worse, evil. This admission hurt me, but it made me realize that the Church was preaching one thing but practicing another. (I know the great cliche of "Do as I say, not as I do" comes to mind)
You see, this guy did not have an bad or evil cell in his body. He acted more Christian-like than most Christian's that I knew... including myself. Yet, I knew he would be an outcast in the eyes of the Church. And that angered me. You see, God is love. Not God is love when it's easy, or when it's convenient, or when it makes you feel good. It's "God is love." Yet the Catholic dogmas say not to accept those who are not like us, or who do not conform to our beliefs or traditions. (see The Crusades of the 11th-13th centuries) But what Jesus taught and showed in his actions, was to accept everyone for who they were. He healed the leapers, he dined with tax collectors, he visited and talked with foreigners. He loved everyone no matter who they were.
Now, I know, the question still begs, "Ken, why do you still practice as a Catholic?" Well, many reasons, and yes, it is a bit hypocritical. But the main reason is that the Catholic church, at it's basic foundation, that of the teachings of Jesus, has a good base to work with. My wife and I are using that base to teach our three boys about Jesus and what he wanted us to learn. I hope, that when it comes time for them to finally make a decision on what direction they want their spiritual life to go, that they don't necessarily choose to be a Catholic because that is what they were brought up as, but that they choose to be a loving human being because that is what Jesus wants us to be and that is what he taught.

EWTN appeals judge's ruling denying network protection from HHS mandate
(CNS file photo/Nancy Phelan Wiechec)
By Sarah Hinds
Catholic News Service
WASHINGTON (CNS) -- The Eternal Word Television Network has appealed a court ruling against the network in its challenge to the federal mandate requiring most employers, including religious employers, to provide coverage of contraceptives, sterilizations and some abortion-inducing drugs in employee health care plans.
The ruling was handed down June 17 by U.S. District Court Judge Callie Granada in Mobile, Alabama, denying the network the protection it sought from enforcement of the Department of Health and Human Services mandate.
EWTN, based in Irondale, Alabama, objects to being required by the government to provide coverage it opposes on moral grounds.
"We are extremely disappointed with the decision reached by the court in this case," Michael P. Warsaw, chairman of the board and CEO of EWTN Global Catholic Network, said in a statement sent June 24 to Catholic News Service. "The fact that the court has dismissed the serious issues of conscience and religious freedom that EWTN has raised is very troubling."
"As an organization that was founded by Mother Angelica to uphold the teachings of the Catholic Church, we do not believe that contraception, abortion-inducing drugs and voluntary sterilization should be defined as health care. We simply cannot facilitate these immoral practices. We have no other option but to continue our legal challenge of the mandate," said Warsaw, who is a Springfield, Mass., native and graduate of Cathedral High School.
On June 18, the network immediately filed an appeal of Granada's decision with the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta.
The state of Alabama joined the network as a co-plaintiff in the lawsuit when it was filed in October 2013. It was the second lawsuit filed by EWTN; the first one was filed in 2012 and dismissed in March of that year.
"The freedom of religion, and to believe as one sees fit, is our 'first freedom' under the U.S. Constitution," said Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange in a statement issued upon the 2013 filing.
"The people of Alabama have recognized the importance of this freedom and have enshrined it in their constitution as well. Alabama law does not allow anyone to be forced to offer a product that is against his or her religious beliefs or conscience," he said.
The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty filed the lawsuit for the plaintiffs. Lori Windham, senior counsel, is defending the network and noted in an interview with CNS that 80 percent of cases similar to the network's case result in rulings that protect the plaintiffs from the mandate.
"We don't think EWTN is different from those who have received injunctions," Windham said. "And that's why we immediately appealed to the 11th Circuit. The fight continues."
The Becket Fund reports that more than 100 cases against the Health and Human Services mandate have been filed since the regulation was announced in August 2011.

9. Student Owned by Professor on Facebook
"Stay in School" is usually sound advice, but this kid might want to take an extended leave after being proven to be both dumber and less cool than his high school professor. I'd say it gets better, kid, but I don't know if there's any coming back from this.
8. Girls Remind Hockey Player of Sexual History
Friends reconnecting is a wonderful thing, and that in this case they're reuniting over a piece of cardboard that has the word "dick" on it is a delightful bonus. Well done to Tyler for taking it all in good stride, too. Gonna have to need that self-effacing sense of humor if you want to be a professional Hockey player.
7. Guy Takes Care of Girlfriend and Best Friend Simultaneously
"Bros Before Hoes" from now on is the mantra of people who obviously aren't trying hard enough. You've changed the world this day, guy in plaid who isn't throwing up in this picture.

Exploring South Africa's role in climate negotiations
President Jacob Zuma has pursued ambitious climate diplomacy despite limited support for it at home. FLICKR/WorldEconomicForum
As the COP17 host and a member, with Brazil, China and India, of the influential BASIC group, South Africa has the potential to play an important role in climate negotiations. Aaron Atteridge explores how well that fits with the country's priorities.
South Africa has built a reputation both domestically and internationally as a constructive participant in the UNFCCC process and an active 'bridge builder' between different parties. At COP15 in Copenhagen, President Jacob Zuma offered a voluntary emissions reduction pledge, and with its BASIC partners, it has carved out a position in negotiations that is distinct from both developed and developing countries.
With COP17 slated to take place in Durban from Nov. 28 to Dec. 9, South Africa is in an even stronger position to show leadership. But as SEI research fellow Aaron Atteridge notes in a blog post on the Climate & Development Knowledge Network, unlike the other BASIC countries – particularly China and India – South Africa is not under pressure to take on mitigation commitments, and at home, climate change is not a hot issue, so there are few political points to be scored by pursuing ambitious climate diplomacy.
Atteridge explains South Africa's ambitious climate diplomacy thus:
The identity projected from South Africa reveals elements of both a developing country and industrialised economy, and this dichotomy influences its approach to climate diplomacy. A post-apartheid desire to present moral leadership, a neo-liberal view on both its own and regional economic development, a desire to transform the power structures in international institutions and a grounding in African reality are among the key driving norms.
But South Africa's international allegiances often involve conflicting interests, and domestic economic issues could also become an obstacle, Atteridge notes, especially as climate policy moves from rhetoric towards implementation.
Atteridge is a co-author of the SEI report Together alone: Brazil, South Africa, India, China (BASIC) and the climate change conundrum (forthcoming in August). He has also written a policy brief about South Africa, part of an SEI package about emerging economies and climate change.

GRANBY – Community members are putting on their thinking caps to figure out if Granby can get a big chunk of state money to repair or replace the West Street School– and they have a deadline coming up this fall to show progress. No dollar estimates have been made available to build a new school or to repair it.
The process to obtain the large state grant to underwrite the potential building project is contingent on Granby forming an ad-hoc panel to study the matter.
Selectmen Mark Bail says that committee is now in place.
Bail chairs the newly formed Granby School Building Committee.
The Massachusetts School Building Authority voted on Jan. 30 to provide Granby a "270-day Eligibility Period" in which the MSBA "will work with Granby to determine the district's financial and community readiness to enter the capital pipeline," according to a statement from the agency.
"The next step is for the district to complete preliminary requirements pertaining to local approval and formation of a local building committee. Upon timely and successful completion of the eligibility period requirements, the district becomes eligible for an invitation into the feasibility study phase of the capital pipeline, subject to a vote of the Board of Directors" of the MSBA, the statement said.
Bail recently said that the Granby School Building Committee has begun the data collection and discussions necessary for addressing the building deficiencies of West Street School.
He said the panel is studying enrollment, code and education requirements for school buildings, and what is best for the town's children.
The committee promises to keep residents updated on their progress, according to Bail.
The other ad-hoc school building committee members are: vice chairman Joseph Rokowski, president of Mass Mutual Trust; secretary Jonathan Cavallo, the East Meadow School principal; School Superintendent Isabelina Rodriguez; Town Administrator Chris Martin; Director of School Maintenance Ken Scully; Finance Committee Chairman John Libera; School Committee member Emre Evren; Granby resident and architect James Morrissey; School Committee member James Pietras who is a retired East Meadow school principal; Town Moderator Lynn Mercier; and Parent Teacher Orgaization co-chairman Andrea Kennedy.

We hunt a lot and are truly blessed to be able to do so. We hunt deer all over the U.S. and we live in Illinois. When it's deer season, we are on the road a bunch and when we get home, I don't spend much time hunting…I'm usually catching up with RJ and work. With that being said, I haven't filled an Illinois buck tag since 1999. Yikes!! I have tried, but it just wouldn't happen. And then, I tried to deer hunt in Iowa and I couldn't fill my buck tag there either…so I have this "I" jinx!
Well, this past November, I was hunting down at Eagle Lakes Outfitters in Pike County Illinois. I had Dan the cameraman with me up in the tree trying to get rid of this jinx! We sat out on a windy afternoon. Tina Sprague from Eagle Lakes let me borrow her father's decoy 'Larry the buck'. She said it would help me!
Their daughter, Ella, gave me a buckeye nut for good luck too. We sat the decoy out with only one antler attached to his head, hoping a more dominant buck would like to come over. We saw a few good bucks and a bunch of does. We spotted a nice 10-point across the field from us, but he had does and wasn't looking to leave them and then he disappeared into the woods. About an hour later, he showed back up, directly across the field from my Ameristep stand. I grunted a little and he decided to walk over to investigate!
My heart was about to come out of my chest! He was beautiful and his feet were covered in mud up to his ankles. He started to walk closer to 'Larry the buck' and when he got to 32 yards, I drew my Hoyt Vicxen and let my Beman fly!! I hit a hair forward of where I wanted to, but he went about 50 yards and piled up.
I was shaking so bad after that—I couldn't believe it! My "I" jinx was broken and I had a beautiful 10-point Illinois buck down in my sight.
Thank you Ted & Tina Sprague from Eagle Lakes Outfitters and of course, thanks to Ella for my "lucky buckeye"! For more info, go to; www.eaglelakesoutfitters.com

Inject patients more safely with our easy to use system:
Connect the medication syringe to the spinal needle
Confirm that system connectors mate correctly
Inject with confidence knowing that the correct syringe is attached to the spinal needle
The problem…
Patient lines can often look alike, posing a risk for misconnection that may lead to serious harm and even patient death.
The solution…
The CorrectInject™ Safety System's unique interlocking connectors allow only medication delivered with a CorrectInject™ syringe to reach the patient through the spinal needle.
Connections of the CorrectInject™ Safety System are distinctly different from standard Luer connections commonly used on medical products. The difference helps to prevent the attachment of a CorrectInject™ syringe to a connector that is not a component of the CorrectInject™ Safety System.
Available in the UK, Australia and New Zealand
The CorrectInject™ Safety System for Spinal Anaesthesia Administration is available to healthcare providers in the UK, Australia and New Zealand.
Reducing Risk of Epidural-Intravenous Misconnections¹
Share your thoughts…
…on medication administration safety.
A highly encouraged practice
Regulatory bodies and professional organizations worldwide urge healthcare providers to implement strategies and best practices that reduce the risk of medication administration errors for neuraxial (spinal and epidural) applications.
National Patient Safety Agency (UK) issued two Patient Safety Alert bulletins calling for "safer spinal, epidural and regional devices."Read more…
National Patient Safety Agency (UK) set the deadline of 1st April 2012 requiring the use of dedicated neuraxial medication delivery systems with safer connectors that will not connect with intravenous Luer (industry standard) connectors for all spinal (intrathecal) bolus doses and lumbar puncture samples performed using syringes, needles and other devices.
World Health Organization recommends the purchase of tubes and catheters designed to enhance safety and to prevent the misconnection of other devices or tubes.Read more…
Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (US) in a Sentinel Event Alert recommends: "do not purchase non-intravenous equipment that is equipped with connectors that can mate with a female Luer IV connector."Read more…

December 21, 1998
WOODINVILLE--The Woodinville City Council passed a $25.7 million budget for 1999 early last week that squirrels away more money for a city hall/civic center, hires more employees, and holds the line on property tax rates.
"It ramps the city up to where we need to be in terms of levels of services," said Mayor Don Brocha. "Once we have that in place, we can concentrate on capital projects."
Specifically, the '99 budget calls for:
Also, design work will be done on the Hollywood Schoolhouse intersection, NE 177th Place, the intersections of State Route 202 and 522, and State Route 202 and 127th Place, and improvements to 124th Ave. NE.
With the gap between revenues and expenditures narrowing, and a host of capital projects that could go under construction in the coming years, Brocha has advised he'd like to see city department budgets level off. He said the challenge would be to build without raising property taxes, though he broached the possibility.
"We haven't seen the need to raise property taxes, but once we get into our capital projects, we may have to," Brocha said. Sales tax continues to be a key revenue source for the city. Jim Katica, serving his final weeks as interim city manager before Pete Rose takes over, says that the city is budgeting for a 10 percent increase in sales tax revenue for 1998. Woodinville expects to collect $5.8 million in sales tax.

At the end of a two-track road in rural Manistee County, an ancient tradition is being kept alive and lovingly nurtured into a small family-owned business. Gerard Grabowski and Jan Shireman began Pleasanton Bakery nine years ago in a small building behind their house. Their dream was to create a home-based business that reflected their beliefs in organic agriculture, whole food nutrition and sustainable living, while producing a product that would be useful and valuable to the community.
A chance encounter with a chewy piece of bread at the Blissfest in the summer of 1990 gave them their first insight into the world of bread making. They quickly realized this was the business they had been looking for.
"As we started to research and connect with a greater circle of artisan bakers, crafts-people, organic grain providers and assorted "bread heads," we saw in this kind of bread-baking a chance to realize some of our dreams," Grabowski explained. "The hunger for organic, flavorful, and non-toxic foods coupled with a revitalization of traditional methods and a resurgence of community hearths was creating a bread renaissance in our country. It seemed to us that making this kind of bread would nourish both body and soul."
Jan and Gerard decided to jump in with both feet and began building a traditional brick oven that would be the center of their bakery business. The brick oven method goes back to the early Egyptians, who paid the laborers who built the pyramids in bread. Brick ovens provide the ideal environment for baking bread the loaves are baked right on the bricks, generous amounts of water are sprayed on the bread and bricks before the oven is sealed tight for a steamy bake. The oven retains heat for hours, allowing several batches of bread to be baked on one firing.
"We started on a very low budget, and a commercial baking oven wouldve been well over $10,000 to install. Instead, we built the brick oven ourselves for about $500, bartering bread to those who helped us along the way," Grabowski said. "We fuel it with downed and dead wood as well as piles of scrap wood from the local sawmill. The design of the baking chamber allows for nearly complete combustion, so it all has a limited effect on the environment."
To make the most nutritious and flavorful bread they could, they chose to use a process of natural leavening known as Flemish Desem. The Desem is made by carefully culturing whole-wheat flour and water into a sourdough starter. This eliminates the need for sweeteners, fats, milk or yeast.
"For 5,000 years bread was made without yeast," Shireman explained, "It is easier to digest, contains more nutrition and does not break down like yeast bread does. Our bread can keep for weeks and just needs a little water and a warm oven to make it fresh again."
Their sourdough started, or mother" as they affectionately refer to it - is made from pure well water and organic flour, and the microbes are given the time and right environment to grow naturally into a leavening agent that makes it rise and retains all the nutrients from the grain.
The next essential step in their fledgling bakery business was to use organic fresh-milled flour, which costs more than five times as much as the kind that most commercial bakeries use. They connected with one of two bio-dynamic farmers in the nation to get organic hard spring wheat, which is the basis for all of their bread, and they began stone milling it themselves. A bag of organic flour costs $20, and a bag of non-organic, mass-produced flour that is shipped globally and perhaps months old costs around $8.
"As soon as any grain is milled into flour it starts to go bad, and it can test rancid within a month," Shireman explained. Their bread flour is made from grain they mill themselves using a cool milling method. It is much slower than high-speed commercial milling, which heats the grain and kills much of its vitamins and proteins. It takes about an hour to mill 50# of flour using the cool milling method, where a high speed operation can do that much in 5 minutes.
"The advantage of this kind of baking is that you start getting re-connected to the world around you in a more intimate way," Grabowski offered. "You try and maximize your benefits from what you do with your life, from working in a wholistic way with the Earth, to getting your grains to yield a bread that is truly nutritious.
"When you bake this way you start looking at bread real close, and you just can't waste your time processing that commercialized stuff from the store. Our work and our food should have a deep and sustaining value. When the costs to the Earth and overall health of consumers is considered, using organic fresh-milled flour and organic ingredients makes economic and ethical sense."
All of this hard work and effort has paid off nine years later with an enthusiastic and loyal customer following, who are more than willing to pay the higher cost of the specialty bread (around $5). Pleasanton Bakery now produces an average of 500 loaves during their peak summer season, and just under 200 loaves in the winter.
They sell their bread and get there early because they usually sell out at the Farmers Market in Traverse City on Saturdays from May October. Other outlets include Port City Organics in Manistee, Ware Farm and the IGA in Bear Lake, Shop-n-Save in Benzonia, LChayim Deli in Beulah, and Oryana Food Co-op in Traverse City.

Psst, Harrisburg Senators fans...want to see Washington Nationals uber-prospect Bryce Harper up close?
Well, head to Hagerstown, Md. Apr. 5 for an exhibition game between Harrisburg and the Hagerstown Suns, the Nationals' Class A affiliate.
The two clubs have announced a two-year agreement to play a pre-season exhibition game. This year, the game is in Hagerstown. It marks the first time that two affiliates of the Washington Nationals have played against one another.
Harper, the Nationals number one draft choice last season, is expected to begin the season with the Suns. He played in the Arizona Fall League for former Senators manager Randy Knorr.
"We are excited to put this exhibition game together with two very important and valued franchises within our organization", said Doug Harris, Washington Nationals Player Development Director. "It is not only an opportunity for us to continue our preparation as the season approaches but also gives the fans in Harrisburg a chance to see the players of the future as well as Suns fans to reconnect with many of the players who have called Hagerstown home in the past."
Tickets for this game will be available for sale beginning March 15 through the Hagerstown Suns. The Senators will not be selling tickets to the game this year. Ticket prices are $5 and are available in person or by calling the Suns at 301-791-6266. Hagerstown is approximately an hour from Harrisburg and will be the first opportunity for Senators fans to see their 2011 team.
The Senators open their 2011 season Apr. 7 when they host the Bowie Baysox.

richard r blakeBridgman, MIAge: Over 65Gender: male5 Stars Out Of 5A New Paradigm in Healing MinistryFebruary 18, 2011richard r blakeBridgman, MIAge: Over 65Gender: maleQuality: 5Meets Expectations: 5This review was written for Healing Starts Now!: Complete Training Manual.As a Christian bookseller in the 1970s and 1980s I became intrigued by the writing and personalities of Charles and Frances Hunter. The Hunters had a major impact on a whole generation of Christian leaders in that era.
In her new book "Healing Starts Now" Dr. Joan Hunter presents a powerful and effective model for healing. This is a complete training manual expanding lessons learned through the tutelage of her parents Charles and Frances Hunter. Dr. Hunter takes the mystery out of healing prayer.
The manual is made up of four parts: Healing, Root Causes of Disease, God's Wisdom for Vibrant Health and Wealth, and The 4 Corners of Your World.
Biblically based, filled with practical principles, the format is reader friendly with easy to follow directions, diagrams, photos, and model prayers. There is a natural progression of presentation throughout the manual.
Dr. Hunter's writing is clear, strong, and vital, specific in direction, offering the reader a new confidence in ministry. Included with the narrative are questions for consideration, opportunities for taking notes, and suggested prayers. Examples and illustrations are introducing using the testimonies of people released or healed from physical trauma, and stress related disease, mental illness, and generational curses.
I found the chapter dealing with nutrition especially helpful. Dr. Hunter provides a wealth of additional resources for reading and future reference in the endnotes.
"Healing Starts Now" is a manual with guidelines for Kingdom ministry for all Christians. Clear, proven instructions provide the reader with new insight and power for experiencing an anointed ministry of supernatural healing and miracles. As reviewd for Midwest Book Review

Hi Guys, Interested in building up one of my shifter karts with a CR250 to just to go have fun with. First question, I found a 2003 motor, are there any issues I should not about with that year motor? Second question, suggestions on where to get a pipe & what kind..Again, very doubtful that I will be doing any road racing with this package. Most preferred carb setup?
Any other tidbits of information will be greatly appreciated.January 2, 2014 at 5:50 pm #18851

I have the parts you need http://www.sharkshifter.com/zc cr 250 pipes / mounts / carbs give mike a call can help on your questions 503-538-1325January 5, 2014 at 8:10 pm #19015

The pipe the Shark Shifter folks sell will work fine, we've used it on ours. The 2003 engine fits in the earlier mount but it makes the carb sit at a slightly steeper angle. The 2002 and 2003 engines have an electric power valve that you can disconnect and put stop screws in the cable holes to hold it open. You'll never drive below the speed where it works anyway. You will need to keep all the electronic boxes on it so the ignition will work. Don't worry about porting it. We have one that is and one that is stock. The modified one is faster but the stock one ends up nearly as fast and is way easier on parts and to drive. All the carb things that work for a 125 Honda will work on the 250 – except that you can go bigger. Ours runs fine on a 38mm but LIKES the 41mm. Fills the top part of the power band in nicely. Keep the rpm to 10,000 or below and it will have a long and happy life. Best part of the power curve is 8000 to 9500 anyway. Gear for about 10 mph higher than what the fast 125's are doing for starters. The hardest thing will be is to keep your self from driving it like a 125. You'll just burn the tires off of it and go barely faster than a 125. Baby it off the corners is the fast way. Another last thing to look out for is vibration. They shake differently than other kart engines (harder and at different speeds) so you'll find that different stuff falls off. Keep close track on all the nuts and bolts until you figure out what's what.
The last thing is I would reconsider not Road Racing it, they do great! Enough power to really go and enough room to "stretch its legs". It's a blast!
Here's an example. Not our best effort.January 6, 2014 at 5:03 am #19025

Anyone know how a stock CRF450 compares to a stock CR250?

Hey Benn,
Thanks for the tips & cool video…I do miss running at The Streets…
Would you be able to point me in the direction of a relative gear ratio for a sprint track..Lets say I am at Santa Maria & running my TM icc with a 1.48 ratio…Approx 250 gearing? While I'm thinking of counter shaft gears…what would you recommend for a variety just in case I want to run Laguna, ButtonWillow, Big Willow…
I will probably have a few more questions once I get the package bolted up…Many thanks again..
Actually, a quick radiator question…How big? I have a large Champion & shockwave for my icc, but I do have a midsize Champion…How much cooling do they need in a sprint setup. Running 120-130 ok?January 11, 2014 at 5:19 am #19396
nigel cooperParticipant
if you have not, check out the link in this forum "All things CR250" and the Classic forum archive.Very helpful and interesting.There are a couple of excellent posts by Ian Harrison of Viper Racing regarding your topic-spark plug choice,needle/seat,powervalve ect.
Something to consider is how you will be starting the engine.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were the beneficiaries of four interceptions and a muffed punt from the Buffalo Bills as they ran away with a 27-6 win Sunday.
Tampa Bay improved to 4-9 on the season after the win, which came as a result of incredible opportunistic play on defense. The Bills gave the Buccaneers every chance to make the lead even bigger than it was, but the offense for the Buccaneers was simply poor all day.
So what can the Buccaneers take away from this sloppy win over a struggling Buffalo team?
Here are my takeaways, starting with the truth about the final score.

Outfielder Torii Hunter offered Porcello, of Chester, a large amount of money to wear his No. 48 when Hunter signed a two-year, $26-million pact with the Tigers, according to the report.
But Porcello turned it down and asked Hunter to donate it to an organization helping Hurricane Sandy victims, the report said.
The report didn't specify the donation amount.
Porcello graduated from Seton Hall Prep in West Orange and was selected in the first round of the 2007 MLB draft.
The righthander was 10-12 with a 4.59 ERA in 2012.

The University of Arizona South location in Sierra Vista is getting a new name.
Effective this week, the UA South headquarters in Sierra Vista will be known as UA Sierra Vista. The new name more specifically reflects the UA's long-standing presence in Sierra Vista, Ariz., about an hour and a half south of Tucson.
Signage reflecting the new name is being rolled out and is consistent with the naming of most other locations outside of Tucson where UA South serves students, such as UA Douglas and UA Santa Cruz in Nogales.
Founded as a UA branch in 1995 and given the name UA South in 1999, UA South administers 21 degree programs, with the bulk of them available through UA Sierra Vista. The programs are designed to serve transfer students who have already completed their first two years of college coursework and need to complete upper division or master's level coursework.
The branch serves more than 900 students. The diverse student body includes a proportionately large amount of older adults, compared with the main campus, including many who have families and full-time jobs or who are serving in the military or have a spouse serving in the military. UA South also is designated as a Hispanic Serving Institution, with greater than 25 percent of its student enrollment defined as Hispanic origin, and more than 40 percent defined as having minority status.
"UA South, and UA Sierra Vista in particular, are important parts of the University of Arizona in that they permit students from around the state who are not traditional students – a student who has a family, who works full-time, who doesn't live in Tucson – to get a University of Arizona education," said Jim Shockey, dean of UA South.
With its new name, UA Sierra Vista will continue to engage in ongoing efforts to provide access to affordable degree programs; to provide educational services in conjunction with businesses, industries and organizations; and to strengthen collaboration with Cochise College in Sierra Vista through the Cochise Cats and UA Bridge transfer programs, Shockey said.
Shockey noted that UA Sierra Vista will continue to reflect UA President Ann Weaver Hart's vision of the University as an institution that works hand in hand with local communities, serves an increasingly diverse student body and engages students in a meaningful college experience while preparing them to be global citizens and future leaders.
Programs and degrees offered through UA Sierra Vista have gradually increased over the years in a response to industry and student degree demands. The branch offers 19 bachelor's degrees and two master's degrees, as well as a wide array of continuing education programs and educational services.
Classes are held at UA Sierra Vista, as well as online and at learning centers throughout Southern Arizona, including centers in Douglas, Nogales, at the UA Tech Park and at several Pima Community College campuses.
Providing UA degree options to individuals across Southern Arizona, these locations have an important role in the UA's economic development mission, Shockey said: "As the University seeks to meet the needs of outlying regions, these critical locations provide educational opportunities to meet the needs of our communities."

College students in Lehigh County want you to roll up your sleeves and a pant leg for another important issue.
Thursday is the International Day for Landmine Awareness.
The "Lend Your Leg Campaign" was on display at Lehigh-Carbon Community College in Schnecksville.
The campaign got started three years ago in Colombia.
It has already assisted in the passage of a land mine victim assistance law in Colombia and Somalia's ratification of the United Nations Mine Ban Treaty.
The U.S. is among dozens of noteworthy nations that have not signed the treaty.

Alpenhof B&B, just minutes from Philly and many popular attractions, is a serene respite from most other getaways! We're known for our comfortable beds, beautifully decorated rooms, numerous amenities, fabulous cooked-to-order breakfast, beautiful gardens, object-de-art, and warm hospitality. We're 2 minutes from Pennsylvania's largest State Park and Arboretum and 5 minutes from Media and local rail lines for easy travel into Philly! Alpenhof is definitely NOT your typical B&B!

This is the best B&B there is, and better than any hotel I've been in. We rented the cottage and it was amazing. Its got plenty of space, comfy bed and furniture, the kitchen is great, and the staff is very friendly and the food is out of this world. The place is like a museum of fine antiques and art from around the world. If you're looking for a great weekend, rent the cottage.

I enjoyed the beautiful home with welcoming atmosphere and nice breakfast. I would come back again.

Roland and Judy are most hospitable. This was our second time to stay. Great bed and pillows made for a comfortable and wonderful sleep. Made to order breakfast was also quite nice. Reasonably priced and great location in outskirts of Philadelphia. Recommend!!!

I stayed here as part of the bridal party for my friend's wedding at Ridley Creek State Park. We had a lovely time - everything was absolutely fantastic.

We searched online for a hotel near our 50th class reunion location and instead found a bed and breakfast. After reading the reviews and looking at the photos, we decided to give it a try. We were warmly welcomed by the owner, an interior designer, and given a tour of the inn. The inn was decorated with interesting pieces of furniture and art, creatively and tastefully placed. The innkeepers were very warm and attentive, and the breakfast that followed each morning was delicious. So glad we found the Alpenhof Bed and Breakfast Inn!

My partner and I were out of towners for a wedding in Media and stumbled upon this gem of a place online. We arrived beaten up from traveling and instantly felt at home. Roland and Judy were both very welcoming and accommodating and gave us plenty of privacy. The house is breathtakingly beautiful (pics don't do it justice), it has a castle feel to it without being stuffy, it's quiet, you could tell they pay attention to detail, the shower in Otto's room was ah-mazing and the breakfast was delicious. We may go out of our way and stay there when we go back to Philly for a visit. Thank you for everything!

By far and away an absolute TREASURE tucked away in Media Pa...My wife and I had the opportunity to meet two great people, Judy and Roland, who by the way make hands down the best omelets and breakfast danish and rolls from scratch. A relaxing, beautiful, comfortable setting as you will find. Access to everything the Tri-State has to offer. A true diamond in the rough,don't miss an opportunity!!

We wish we could have stayed longer! We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Alpenhof. Our room was beautifully furnished, the public areas of the bed and breakfast were clean and cozy, and breakfast was superb! How many bed and breakfasts can you go to that have a long menu of what is offered at breakfast? Roland and Judy were very friendly and welcoming, it was as if you were family. We walked the grounds, and while we didn't have a chance to enjoy the pool, it was very nice. We greatly enjoyed our stay and wish we could have stayed longer. We definitely will be back, hopefully soon!

We stayed in the Grand Master Suite. The view from the room was so serene...so many trees and wonderful flowers to boot. There is even access to a sundeck which adjoins an area with a table and chairs to sit at and enjoy the serenity, overlooking a wonderful swimming pool. The bed was super comfortable and the accommodations were spacious. The décor is a mix of antique and eclectic which blended nicely. The breakfasts were scrumptious, offering fresh fruit salad bowls, fresh baked goods and eggs cooked anyway you want along with great bacon and sausage available to boot. On Sundays, they have a delicious eggs benedict offered up. They even had homemade gravlax with bagels, cream cheese, tomatoes and red onion. For us, the best part of Alpenhof are the people who run it, Judy, Roland and Roland's wife Anh who helps with the breakfasts. I felt as comfortable there, as I do at home. You won't meet kinder, warmer and more helpful people. They truly care about your comfort and your needs. They make it very difficult to leave, because we wanted to stay longer. We feel that it's a great value for the money and we will be coming back again and again to enjoy the B&B as well as Philadelphia.

It was the first big-league pitch he'd seen in 20 days, and Moises Alou lined it into left field for a two-out, two-run single in the bottom of the first inning.
It may not have been as surprising as the two-out RBI single Carlos Delgado hit one pitch earlier, but it was a jarring reminder of just what Alou can mean to the Mets' lineup. Fernando Tatis in the same spot...let's just say he might not have been as effective.
Difference-maker? Tough to say, since we have to wait and see if he can stay on the field. But one thing's for sure about Moises Alou -- dude can hit.

A year after leading the Baseball Writers Association of America's Hall of Fame voting in his first year on the ballot but falling shy of the required 75 percent for election in a rare year without inductees, Craig Biggio fell short of enshrinement by the slimmest of margins Wednesday.
The former Astros second baseman and Seton Hall graduate appeared on 74.8 percent of the 571 votes cast. It was an increase of 6.6 percent from his 2013 tally, but two votes short of election. Instead, Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, and Frank Thomas received the call from the museum in Cooperstown in their first year of eligibility on the congested ballot.
Joining Biggio were former Mets catcher Mike Piazza and former Yankees starting pitcher Mike Mussina. Piazza finished fifth in the tabulation with 62.2 percent in his second year of eligibility, a slight uptick from his 57.8 percent last year. Mussina, in his first year of eligibility, was on 20.3 percent of the ballots.
Starting pitcher Jack Morris, in his 15th and final year on the BBWAA's ballot, had 61.5 percent of the voters check his name.
History indicates Biggio and Piazza will receive the nod in the near future — 16 players have received between 50 and 70 percent of the vote in their first year of eligibility and all 16 were eventually enshrined.
Biggio, a winner of four Gold Gloves, played the majority of his 20-year career at second base, but began as a catcher and shifted to the outfield for two seasons. He hit .281 and posted a .796 OPS while tallying 3,060 hits and 414 steals. He slugged 291 homers while playing the majority of his career at the pitcher-friendly Astrodome, and his 668 doubles are the fifth-most all-time and tops for a right-handed hitter.
But some view Biggio, a seven-time All-Star, as a compiler. He posted just one 200-hit season and one other 190-hit season. He never finished in the top three of the MVP voting.
"I was like shocked," Frank Thomas said in a conference call Wednesday. "To hear that he didn't get in by two votes, man, I don't want to use the word 'tragic,' but it's got to be a tragic moment for him right now. He was one heck of a player. I didn't watch him play every day. But I know the gamer he was."
Piazza, the 1993 National League Rookie of the Year and a 12-time All-Star, hit .308 with a .922 OPS and 427 home runs over 16 seasons. He spent his formative years with the Dodgers and Mets — with a week-long stint as a Marlin separating the chapters — and finished his career with the Padres and Athletics.
Piazza played eight seasons in Queens. He led the Mets to the 1999 NLCS and 2000 World Series. He was inducted into the franchise's Hall of Fame in September and has said he wants his Hall of Fame plaque in Cooperstown to have him in a Mets cap if he is ever inducted.
Piazza's offensive exploits are countered by the performance-enhancing drug cloud hanging over him and his era. Though he never publicly tested positive for a banned substance and has denied ever using performance-enhancing drugs, voters have voiced their suspicions and declared they would never vote for any players they suspect of performance-enhancing drug use.
A similar narrative has developed for Astros first baseman, and Biggio's longtime teammate, Jeff Bagwell, who appeared on 54.3 percent of the ballots in his fourth year of eligibility.
"On behalf of the organization and our fans, Mike is a true Hall of Famer," Mets COO Jeff Wilpon said in a statement. "We proudly display his plaque in the Mets Hall of Fame, and we're hopeful that he'll soon have one hanging in Cooperstown."
Mussina never won a Cy Young Award. He won 20 games just once — in his final season — and he registered a 3.68 career ERA, which would rank as the third-worst in the Hall of Fame.
But he posted 270 wins pitching in the high-scoring American League East over 18 seasons between the Orioles and Yankees, and finished in the top six of the American League Cy Young voting half those years.

I was looking for a good solution to host some small wordpress blogs for bsdstammtisch.at but it was a bit tricky because I had some special requirements.
Since the blogs are currently wordpress based with some custom plugins and themes and it's own domain that needed to stay the same. In addition to that I also want to be able to modify and fix the code myself because it's great for flexibility.
Thanks to a friend I stumbled across openshift.com which is a SaaS solution from RedHat and very developer friendly. Many standard applications like wordpress, owncloud and drupal are available immediately and custom applications based on php, java, ruby, python, perl and node.js can also be setup. The customizations are deployed via a git repository that you push your code to so it's pretty easy to use.
The first 3 applications are for free and you have 1GB diskspace and 512MB RAM per app which should be enough for small stuff.
The service itself is comparable to Google AppEngine but OpenShift is based on standard technology including well known relational databases and support for all big scripting languages while AppEngine uses a special SDK and lots of non standard APIs and datastores. Google also tries to widen it's support and has a closed beta for PHP and MySQL but it's not available for regular use yet so it will take them some time to get there.
So far I am very pleased with the flexibility and the free plan of openshift. We'll see if the stability and quality of their service can keep up with that.

Iraqi Shoe Thrower Who Terrorized President Bush To Face Trial
Not long ago the world watched in shock and horror as the noble President Bush, giving a final inspirational speech to an Iraqi people to whom he brought freedom, was assaulted by the shoes of a crazed Iraqi journalist.
As Bush was bringing confidence and security to Iraq during a speech, the journalist stood up and threw both of his shoes at Bush, a blatant display of terrorism and bloodlust.
Fortunately, President George Bush was blessed with the quick reflexes of a lemur, and was able to dodge the potentially lethal shoe throw.
The Iraqi shoe thrower terrorist's trial will start on February 19th and he will formally face the charge of assaulting a foreign leader.
