We needed a place for the night on our way back to Texas to visit with family and this was close to them. City RV park with permanent residents, clean and neat, excellent cable and WiFi; the shower facility was very stuffy with poor ventaliation but clean. We would stay again when in town to visit family. - Caroline and Joe

We, a Dutch family on our first visit to the US, stayed one night at Apache Palm RV Park in order to return our motorhome in Mesa. The only garbagecan we could find was closed so we put our little bag beside it. The next morning the manager wanted to charge us an extra 5 dollars for cleaning up the garbage that had unfortunately been spread out in front of the office, presumably caused by a dog or cat. Even though we apologized, she still charged us for the little clean-up. An hour later we returned to the office with a second garbage bag and our question was again where the garbage cans are? We were not allowed to drop it in their garbage can. Instead she insisted that we should take our garbage with us in the RV and leave the park (!) which we eventually did to avoid further escalation and to return our motorhome in time. We have been visiting several hundreds of campsites in Europe in the past 30 years, but we never experienced a situation as unfriendly and unwelcoming as this! During our stay in the US, the staff of all other RV parks were very friendly and helpful. - Peters 2016

Be aware of the 14-day cancellation fee. We had a reservation for five nights; asked to change it to four when we arrived but too late, had to pay for five. Park is small with sites crammed in everywhere; some are wider than others. Access to sites is not a problem as long as you pay attention to where you were going. Restrooms, pool and the grounds in general are well-maintained. Location is convenient to any place in Tempe, and even downtown Phoenix since the light rail station is across the street from the park. Some airplane noise when the planes take off to the east, but generally quiet at night. - Ray Z

Just an older park located close to ASU in Tempe. Right next to the metro line. Quiet enough, but most sites are permanents who pay no attention to speed limit signs in the park. Back in sites only, you need lots of sewer and water hose as well as a long electric cord as all the sites have hookups at the very rear of the site. The sites were just wide enough to avoid a cramped in feeling and deep enough for a 45ft motorhome. We found the manager friendly enough, and it was OK for a couple of nights. - run2

This was a convenient campground for visiting friends and family in the area. As a result, we did not spend much time there. Clean. It appears that there are mostly permanent or semi-permanent residents. Interior roads are navigable, but can be a bit tight even for a 35' motorhome. Owner wonderful and very helpful. We would not hesitate to stay here in the future. - dandd

This place is a gem! We are relocating for a job to the Phoenix area from Indiana. I checked out at least 15 places online where I could park our 33' travel trailer long term while I found a rental house and my wife was packing in Indiana. I am so lucky to have found Green Acres. I visited several of the other places I had looked into and this was hands down the best choice for short or long term stays in Mesa. There are several locations that claim to be RV Campgrounds but are either an old motel that was partially torn down or an aging mobile home park that has vacant spots between extremely run down ancient mobile homes, very scary. First of all, for Green Acres the facilities and grounds are spotless with many nice touches that make it feel like home. The staff is extremely accommodating but very firm on making sure things are kept clean and rules followed. The laundry facilities are very usable and next to the pool that has a misting system over a covered seating area...just right for waiting on the dryer. The spots are small but adequate and as expected with this being so close and accessible to everything including the metro rail system. There is an amazing Thai restaurant and Vietnamese bakery just across the street. I would stay here again and would recommend it for anyone looking for a clean, value based, comfortable place to stay while in the valley. Only reason why I gave the bathrooms a 4 and not a 5 is that while house like nice and extremely clean they do not have AC so unless you go first thing in the morning they can be hot in the summer. - Dodgeboy64

Older park in town, sites are very closely packed together. Best selling point is the location, less than a block from Safeway and a stop on the light rail system that goes right into downtown Phoenix, Cubs stadium within a mile. Big rigs would have an issue. I'm little, so I'll be back! - ldukeb

Great place to stay in Phoenix. Yes, this park is older, but it is well maintained and the staff are second to none. As others have mentioned this is a mobile home park that rents vacant lots to RVers - the sites are large and well spaced with hookups that used to serve mobile homes so are generally located at the rear of the site, but we had no problems with anything. The only amenity we used was the laundry room (excellent), but they also have a pool, hot tub, and various organized activities. Compared to other parks in the area, Holiday Village represents great value and we will definitely stay here again. - MaggieMouse
Mar 2015 - $31.00
We made reservations to stay here. When we arrived, the site was a vacant lot full of weeds. No central hook ups, just residental stubs left over from a long gone park model. Avoid this place. - Luke
Dec 2013 - $18.00
This manufactured home park is central to everything in the Mesa and Phoenix area in our opinion. This is our third time here. Last time was three years ago. There are many many more sites available to RVers because of the aging population here. Many of the mobiles have been dismantled and as a result the sites are huge!! The people are very friendly. The two swimming pools are well maintained as is the very large hot tub. The roads are very wide and are asphalt. This is a very easy park to negotiate to the sites. Just check the site before you drive in as there may be some left over metal from the previous home but the park has tried to clean the sites up. Water, sewer, and electric are included. The price reflects the monthly rate divided by 30. The nightly rate is around $30 a night. This is the best deal that we have found in the area and will come back whenever we are in Arizona. - Rib

Safe, quiet, and clean. Everyone is very friendly. Park has a lot of shade trees and grass. Spaces are large and accommodate my multiple vehicles, patio, and dog. Very convenient location for Old Town Scottsdale, shopping, dining, arts, and freeway access. - Cynthia T

As other reviewers have stated this is a former modular trailer park under transformation to an all RV park. That said, the park caters primarily to long term clients. Short term visitors are relegated to unshaded, very close sites. The large, shaded sites are only available to long term clients. No WiFi or cable is available to short term sites. Although the only office worker is friendly and upfront, and apologetic about the lack of amenities; I had to constantly repeat myself when responding to her questions. The park only accepts cash or checks....NO CREDIT CARDS! The office closes at 5 P.M. and is not staffed at all Saturdays and Sundays. While walking our dog, I noticed may leaky water spigots. Although it bills itself as a "Resort", the park fall far short of description! Photographs of the park contained on its website are long term sites and are not available to short term visitors. Many of the long term sites I saw were in a poor state of repair. The ONLY reason we stayed here was proximity to friends living in Scottsdale. I can't recommend this park and would not stay here again. - Joe-n-Doe

I parked my new 32' Motorhome here from January through April. The rate I paid was a monthly rate. Although we kept the RV there (hooked up), I did not stay there full time but we were in and out all winter. I really enjoyed my stay there. The managers were great to me and very accommodating my entire stay and went out of their way to greet us every time we arrived. The management worked 7 days a week making improvements to the park. They were diligently working on removing the remaining mobile homes to make it entirely an RV park. I believe when I left there were only maybe 3 mobile homes left to remove. They have plans for even more improvements by next season. Finally, I cannot finish without saying how friendly all the campers were in the park and we have made some good friends. - Dino H

I suspect this is a great park in the winter for snowbirds. But for an RV in the summer: not so good. Electricity was not good. I wasn't getting full 50amps and you need every bit of it when it's 110 degrees. Pool and clubhouse was very nice but the AC in the gameroom was very bad. - LEB2
May 2012 - $42.00
I would not recommend this resort during the summer months, as the pool was like bath water with debris falling from the palm trees into the pool. The site size is very very tight. No grass anywhere to dogs to walk on. People are unfriendly. Said "Good morning" to everyone we passed on the streets, no one person acknowledged. Especially, I said "Hello" to a lady riding a bike, she did not respond. However, as we were walking our two dogs towards the lake area, she yelled out that we are not permitted to walk dogs in this area, only on the perimeter of the property. The perimeter was asphalt and concrete. The website is very deceiving. It is in a very bad looking neighborhood. - The Sconyers and their boys

55+ park, but allows 38+. One of the best parks we have ever parked our 40' coach. We are insurance property adjusters and stay at many parks across the nation. Roadrunner has a 1st class staff and park. Always friendly and accommodating. The park is sparkling clean and friendly residents. We were sad to leave, and know we will stay there again when back in the area. Kim and Kathy are so friendly and helpful. We call Roadrunner 'Pleasantville'. Must visit and treat yourself to an awesome time. Great location to many activities, but quiet and away from traffic. Security guard on duty. Thank you Roadrunner - you are top of our list of great places to park! - Nancy DJ

You can only make reservations by email. Cash or credit card are not accepted. This is a"gold mine" as Scottsdale has lacked for RV parks.They were in the processing of moving trailer park full timers out and putting in RV folks at 4 times the rate. Consequently it was messy and unkept. Location excellent for Scottsdale and ASU. - grey wolf

This park is all about location--an easy walk to old town and eating. The park is very compact which makes it difficult to back into your site--no pull throughs. The managers will help you, and you will get it done. Once you are in, the spacing and parking are decent. Because of this I would not recommend this park for a short stay unless you are very small and maneuverable. Good water, power and fast Wi-Fi. Some grass, flowers, and trees. I like the park a lot. No credit cards accepted. - rjallred

We stayed here for a few days for Angels spring training baseball. From their website, this place looks pretty good so decided to give it a try. Don't be fooled, it looks really nothing like website shows, kind of deceptive. The sites are mingled in with double and single wide trailers, many of which have seen their days. The surrounding area is not the best either. Some of the positives are a very nice pool / spa, clubhouse & gym. Plenty of room at the sites. At best, use this spot as a home base to check out the surrounding areas. We would not stay here again. - kirksumida

This RV resort is convenient to the freeway bypass and provides easy access to the Phoenix, AZ area. The resort is undergoing changes, moving from a mobile home park into an RV resort and vacation retreat. The sites are mingled with Mobile Homes and do provide total hookups. The community access is gate controlled, the amenities offered are clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly. This is a good stop, for overnight or long term, worth the effort. Just know it is a bit more than an RV resort, at least for now. - SilverBear

Having viewed Twin Palms on Google Earth, I was a little apprehensive about spotting the entrance on arrival but no problems.
A very well maintained, clean park with excellent facilities. Grounds keepers were there about 8:00 Tue morning, trimming, mowing and blowing to maintain the very neat appearance.
I was especially impressed with the sewer hookup. It had not been run over, cross-threaded by an 800 lb. gorilla or otherwise abused and made unusable.
This was our first visit but not the last. - jrbarber
May 2015 - $18.00
This tiny park is well groomed with small flowering trees when I was there in April (no shade). Any rig under 34 feet should fit in any of the 20 spaces arranged in a U-shape. Very nice bathroom (single use) and small laundry ($2 load). No other facilities are present.
Since it is the backyard of Steve's Cycle Shop (the owner), on Main Street in Mesa, the noise is right there. Roaring motorcycle noise plus regular traffic made it unpleasant to spend a month there.
It is on the east side of Mesa, close to carpet and awning shops and many RV sales lots. If you are in the market for an RV, there are several within walking distance. Camping World is across the street.
The daily rate listed here is based on $425 monthly fee (includes $10 electric meter reading fee, plus a $15 Trash fee) plus all the other fees charged including electricity.
When you check out, another $10 meter fee (owner checks the meters so he charges for his time (2x $10) to read the meter when you check in/out), plus water/septic/trash charges and a $10 key charge (refundable). There is an $8 billing charge plus 13 cents per KWh, which is about average for the area.
The site rental paperwork is the same as though you are renting an apartment/house rather than an RV site. He does let you fill out the paperwork and return it to him.
There is a $250 deposit required at time of reservation which you must get refunded after the utilities are deducted and the keys returned. If you are leaving the area, don't plan on departing Sunday or Monday as the shop is closed. - Margo Armstrong
Apr 2015 - $28.00
Stayed here for one week. The park is small with only 15 sites but it was quiet (except for occasional motorcycle noise from the shop next door). Our site #10 was a back in site and had plenty of room with our 36 ft motorhome with 2 slide outs and our tow dolly and car. No bad smells all week we were there. We would stay here again for a short stay...for the convenience of the location. Camping World right across the street. - kemosabe

I really enjoyed my stay here, a very good value for the cost (apparently a year-round price). It is difficult to find a reasonably-priced RV park this close to the Gilbert/Chandler area. The Manager made me feel right at home.
My stay lasted four months during the summer season. Due to the time of year, it was very quiet. The small RV sites are clustered together among the park models. At this time of year, there were no neighbors in my section except a few park model occupants.
The park is old and the electric meters could use a paint job, but the laundry room, restroom facilities, and community center were kept immaculate. The pool was small but well maintained. - Margo Armstrong

Thanks for the lead in for todays group of fat/pachycaul Pelargoniums. By
the way the installment after this will be on geophytes and though some are
minatures they often have large tuber/roots that can be raised to show off
the 'fat parts'. Since the fat ones for today are spread across so many
Sections I've grouped them by Section and have also listed a few other
interesting species in each section.
+++++++++section Otidia
For the most part species from this section are from the winter rainfall
area from SW Africa into Namibia. Stem succulence is the common adaption to
the arid environment where these species are found. The 'review of the
section Otidia' published by the Geraniacea Group in 1991 lists 23 species.
I've included photos of 3 and listed a few others that are generally
available. If anyone would like to see images of some of the others please
let me know and if I have one I'll try and post it.
This species in this section are often difficult to identify especially the
ones closest to carnosum.
Pelargonium crithmifolium:
The pictured plant is almost 2 feet tall. The branching and persistent
inflorescence remains are distinguishing characteristics separating it from
the very similar looking P. paniculatum.
Pelargonium laxum:
This is the only species of the section that grows in both winter and summer
rainfall areas. The seed grown ones have a much nicer growth form than
thoughts commonly available as cuttings. Cuttings tend to grow long and
viney and seldom branch. Seed grown plants form a nice pachycaul stem and
brance profusely.
Pelargonium rotundipetalum:
This one is very similar to P. carnosum except for the more rounded
predominately white flowers.
p. paniculatum
P. carnosum
P. alternans
P. ceratophyllum
P. dasyphyllum
P. klinghardtense
++++++++++++Section Cortusina
This section consists of plants from the desert and semi deserts of the
north western cape and Namibia. Winter rainfall of less than 100mm
(4inches) plus sea fogs.
Pelargonium crassicaule:
Just a great looking species. I've not been able to set seed on this
species. I'd sure like to hear if anyones been successful setting and
germinatin seed.
Pelargonium Crassicaule - less chunky form (has been called P. mirable
though it is considered syn with p. crassicaule):
P. cortusifolium
P. echinatum
P. sibthorpiifolium
+++++++++++++Section Polyactium
Plants in this section have thickened roots or tubers.
Pelargonium gibbosum:
Just an interesting oddball with night scented flowers. Easy to grow.
P. bowkeri
p. lobatum
P. luridum
P. pulverulentum
P. triste
++++++++++++Section Isopetalum
Pelargonium cotyledonis:
The only species in this section though there does appear to be 3 distinct
forms of this species. From the island of St Helena in the southern
Atlantic. The flowers are white, many and have a long bloom time. Seed is
not easy to set. Cuttings root easily. For me it seems to chose its own
time to grow and when it is in growth can take watering freely.
++++++++++++Section Ligularia
A very diverse section so much so that it could end up being split up.
Pelargonium xerophyton:
>From the north western cape and Namibia area this species survives on less
than 200mm of winter rain. A schrublet with small leaves this species makes
nice bonsai. The pictured plant is growing on lava rock with less than 1/4
inch of soil on the surface and is about 6 inches tall.
P. barklyi
p. crassipes
p. fulgidum
P. articulatum
p. hystrix
p. pulchellum
p. spinosum
Thats all the pachycauls for now. Any specific requests for info on others?
This is a prevue of a species from the next installment of GetW. Geophytes
with fat roots that can be raised for effect.
Keep Growing

Communication as Culture by James W. Carey
Book DescriptionIn this classic text, James W. Carey maintains that communication is not merely the transmission of information; reminding the reader of the link between the words "communication" and "community," he broadens his definition to include the drawing-together of a people that is culture. In this context, Carey questions the American tradition of focusing only on mass communication's function as a means of social and political control, and makes a case for examining the content of a communication-the meaning of symbols, not only the motives that originate them or the purposes they serve. He seeks to recast the goal of communication studies, replacing the search for deterministic laws of behavior with a simpler, yet far more challenging mission: "to enlarge the human conversation by comprehending what others are saying." This new edition includes a new critical foreword by G. Stuart Adam that explains Carey's fundamental role in transforming the study of mass communication to include a cultural perspective and connects his classic essays with contemporary media issues and trends. This edition also adds a new, complete bibliography of all of Carey's writings.

by Stuart Chang Berman
Nothing goes with a terrific meal better than a warmly told story about family and friends. In Potsticker Chronicles, celebrated chef, restaurant owner, cooking teacher, and raconteur Stuart Chang Berman offers a generous supply of both, with a delightful collection of classic Chinese recipes and family tales.
Drawing on his culinary expertise and Chinese heritage, Chang Berman invites you to explore the many flavors of China in 160 recipes that range from hearty soups and tempting appetizers to delightful desserts, complete with a sumptuous array of potstickers, spring rolls, rice and noodle dishes, vegetable and tofu creations, and savory sauces.
There are recipes for favorite Chinese restaurant dishes as well as heirloom family dishes. You will discover the secrets to preparing unbelievably tender Drunken Chicken, crispy Shrimp Croquettes, luscious Moo Shu Pork, Lamb and Pine Nut-Stuffed Squash, Lobster and Scallop Potstickers, and more. For special occasions, Chang Berman offers extraordinary banquet dishes, such as Braised Venison with Quail Eggs and Bamboo Shoots and Marinated and Grilled Wild Birds.
Clear and easy-to-follow instructions demystify every key cooking technique, from passing food through oil for a grease-free stir-fry to crimping the edges of a potsticker. There is also advice on choosing equipment and ingredients to bring out the best in every dish.
Throughout, Chang Berman shares wonderful stories about his family, friends, and career, as well as Chinese history and culture. You will hear about the time he cooked a Chinese banquet in an Italian castle full of ancient Egyptian artifacts for the famous American poet Ezra Pound and his family. He also recalls the loving way his grandmother taught him how to cook, his mother's fabulous success in creating an upscale Chinese restaurant in Washington, D.C., and his own delight, as a child, in horrifying his non-Asian friends with outlandish descriptions of the ingredients in Chinese food.
Enchantingly illustrated with beautiful ink drawings by Chinese artist Dora F. Lee, Potsticker Chronicles takes you on an enticing journey of culinary discovery with an extraordinarily knowledgeable and personable guide to show you the way.

Envisioning Medical Technology and the Future of Healthcare
In reviewing the interesting graphic from Envisioning Technology, I find this overview of technology interesting for its attempt to capture a wide range of technologies and represent them visually, grouping current and future technologies into these six categories:
- Augmentation
- Regeneration
- Diagnostics
- Telemedicine
- Biogerontology
- Treatments
While the graphic's details encompass a good range of important technologies that will sooner or later impact healthcare, the graphic has several key problems. First, there are a few errant placements (too early or too late) of technology. This of course may simply ensue from subjectivity, which one of the principals behind the graphic, Michell Zappa, acknowledges ("actual forecast of when certain technologies are likely to reach maturity [or the] mainstream is very subjective").
Second, the segmentation of technologies by the six categories above artificially separates groupings of technologies that naturally belong together. For example, biogerontology is wholly and intrinsically linked with regeneration. Treatments and regeneration are too close to be considered distinct. Telemedicine and diagnostics are initially one and the same, with emerging technologies expanding on the therapeutic aspect of telemedicine (e.g., remote surgery, remote inteventional medicine, and other telepresence capabilities).
Of course, all systems of categorization are at their root a simplified representation of a complex system for the purpose of identifying discrete sets of elements with common characteristics. Also, the old adage is true that, "All forecasts are wrong; some forecasts are more wrong than others".
What I fundamentally appreciate about this type of visualization is its attempt to reflect in some form — especially in capturing a macro view that understands both trees and forests — the relatedness, interconnectivity and otherwise dynamic interactions between elements that are otherwise seen disparately. The macro view captures chronology, sequential progression, functional associations and similar.
Therefore, the only limitations I see to these representations are the conceptual macro ideas that are intended to be represented and this is not stated or obvious in the Envisioning Technology graphic. In other words, what understanding is being portrayed by segmenting technology by the categories of Augmentation, Regeneration, etc.? Moreover, the implicit assumption that "now" is at the center of the graphic misses a fundamental tenet of medical technology development.
Let me elaborate. Like a family tree, a representation of Now at the center reflects a view that, as we expanding radially outward, we are encountering an ever-widening circle in which there is continued proliferation and differentiation of elements (children, grandchildren, etc.). However, one of the fundamental aspects of current and emerging medical technology development that makes it so stunning is the convergence of technology as medical science gains the ability to both comprehend systems more as a whole than disparate parts (cardiology, orthopedics, neurology, etc.) and intervene more comprehensively with therapeutic solutions that, minimally, do not produce collateral damage on adjacent systems and, optimally, leverage the body's comprehensive physiology in recovering from disease and trauma.
Therefore, a more cogent argument can be made that, for a variety of reasons, including the convergence of multiple scientific disciplines, the financial limitations of healthcare expenditure and others, the center of the graphic ought to perhaps be the future, with trends and developments being driven toward a smaller number of more comprehensive healthcare solutions.

In the pursuit of an elegant life I often turn to elegant periods in history. Recently I found a lovely set of French Antique silverware from the Belle Époque (circa 1870s). Each piece of silverware has a French coat of arms emblazoned upon it, and each has the makers marks of The French Minerve or Minerva on all, 1st titre designating .950 silver content (higher than the .925 standard for sterling silver). Silversmith marks for Maison Cardeilhac (Emile Cardeilhac,
c. 1851-1904). I just can't wait for my next dinner party when these charming antiques will be used by me and my guests and may even invoke that period known as the Belle Époque. Paris

My obsession with history and antiques has led me to a recent auction of royal memorabilia in which I purchased this lovely pair of Art Deco cuff-links (circa 1930). These cuff-links are 18K yellow gold with emerald green, white, and gold enamel, which feature the initials "A W" under a coronet. They once were the property of Alastair Author Windsor, 2nd Duke of Connaught, and Strathearn (August 9th, 1914 - April 26, 1943). He was one of the great grandchildren of Queen

*Epiphyllum oxypetalum,Night Blooming Cereus*
I am in love with this plant. It is my first Cereus. I have had it for 6 months and it has been super healthy!
It normally sits in the sunniest spot of our lounge.
However ... today was a super sunny day - and I got home the leaves have gone a bit yellowy brown and super wrinkly (it is normally waxy smooth) - I have misted it with water as I think it is sunburnt(?)
What does it have? and how do I save it?
I purchased special cactus soil for it too :( !!
Help! Wrinkled *Epiphyllum oxypetalum,Night Blooming Cereus*
*Epiphyllum oxypetalum,Night Blooming Cereus*
Yes, they can be sunburned. I wouldn't worry too much but the pot you have seem to be too small and that can make the leaves wrinkled. I have propagated a lot of night blooming cerus and they don't need a big pot but need repotting every 2 yrs. The leaves won't turn back green or unwinkle but you can have new growth and the new growth will be healthy once the situation is corrected.
These plants are epiphytes from tropical rain forests, so don't treat it like a cactus, though it may like the cactus soil very much, just water more often than you would a real cactus, don't let it get completely parched. As they would naturally be hanging in a tree, or on the ground under it if they fell out, too much sun can be overwhelming.
I agree with Purpleinopp, these are like a lot of plants that latch onto another type of growth (trees / shrubs ect) and use these as a way of getting nutrients, water and PART light, they don't want full hot blazing sun and the heat of strong sunlight through glass will de-hydrate them causing the foliage to work too hard trying to shade the plant from the magnified sunlight from the glass.
Just remove the plant from the STRONG sun but allow it to have good light, keep away from winter draughts and away from heating boilers or radiators, Mist the foliage regularly and this gives humidity and removed dust from the pores in the leaves,
As mentioned, give a larger pot and by all means use a special Cacti or Orchid soil mix but after watering, wait half hour and then drain away any excess water from the saucer, they don't like roots sitting in wet and it would cause rot,
Hope we have all helped you understand your plants needs a little and all goes better from now on.
Kindest Regards. Weenel.
Not to put too fine of a point on it, but this plant isn't parasitic, just epiphytic. It would not obtain nutrients from its' host, just use it as a support. Excellent advice about emptying the drain saucer.
I don't believe in misting but if you want to, please don't do it while the sun is shining on the plant.

Gotta love the ravello. Would be my ultimate pair of chukkas. Do they still sell the chukkas in ravello?
Is there a particular flannel cloth you guys recommend for buffing shell?
Also, in the Mac Method is says to wipe with a damp cloth. does the cloth matter? can I use like a handtowel or something? I have always used a slightly different method and want to try this. Thanks!!

Fishing reports are starting to come in from area lakes as ice is off or about off on most bodies of water.
The reservoirs over by Helena are always a good bet this time of the year. Trout fishing has started to pick up and will only get better as spring type conditions make their way into Montana. Shore anglers are doing well using Power Bait.
Tom Jenner reports from Seeley Lake that the ice is coming off Salmon and Seeley lakes and there is some open water, though very few anglers have been out fishing the open water so far.
Jenner did say that he has had some good luck on the Clearwater River at the junction of Highway 83 and Highway 200. Jenner has been using in-line spinners and spoons with no one color better than the other. If you are bait fishing, Jenner recommends trying night crawlers or smelt.
Spring Mack Days on Flathead Lake is still underway with the anglers already entering 9,300 lake trout as of last Sunday. Flathead Lake is another great place to try your luck for lake trout and maybe do your 2009 maiden voyage for your boat at the same time.
You can enter for free at www.mackdays.com.
Perch fishing is also starting to pick up on Flathead Lake. Some anglers are doing well in East Polson Bay, fishing from boats. The perch are still a little tough to find. The water temperature might need to warm a little bit more.
Boat anglers and shore anglers are also catching perch anchored near and fishing from the Polson Docks. The perch are a smaller there but if you give it some time you should be able to catch enough 9-11-inch perch to make a nice meal.

Dyanna Villesca, Ph.D., LSSP, ABSNP
Licensed Psychologist
Katy Psychological Services has doctoral level psychologists that use cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients to learn to identify common negative thinking errors that often fuel depressive thoughts. Once a client can recognize these patterns, he/she learns to challenge these thoughts and counter them with looking at many different ways to view a situation in a proactive and realistic way. Cognitive behavior therapy is more than just "thinking positive". It's a systematic approach that takes practice, but it can be effective if you can match a good therapist "coach" to guide you through how to change the negative down spiral thoughts.

In my counseling practice, I work with clients who are struggling with the pain of depression. It has been said that depression lies to you.....depression tells you that you are not good enough, or that you will never accomplish your goals, or that you are not lovable. I help clients identify the causes of their depression, and to develop individual strategies that work specifically for them. I assist people in creating new patterns of thinking and new positive habits that contribute to happier, more satisfying lives.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, sorrow, loss of joy, suicidal thoughts, lack of interest in activities, loneliness, and being withdrawn, are some of the warning signs of depression. Sometimes depression is also accompanied by anxiety. Working against depression can feel exhausting and it can be heartbreaking to watch someone you love suffer from Major Depression. Our Lord wants to make your joy complete and ensure your life has meaning and worth. He wants to see you rise above the depression. And so do we. We all deserve to feel fully alive. As professional counselors , we are ready to give you the help you or your family needs to overcome depression and turn your tears into dancing.
Depression Therapist
Angela Pham, MS, MA, LPC Intern
Bad days come and go but they do not necessarily have to stay. When medication does not seem to be enough talking to someone can help. I have worked with many individuals that have struggle with depression and though the course of therapy have described a sensation of "fog" lifting. Depression has many origins, such as early childhood attachment or recent losses. It has been my experience that the most efficient way to come out of depression is to explore and understand one's symptoms.
Depression Therapist
Leah Fordham, LMSW, LCDC
Addiction Counselor - Individual, Couples & Families
Depression manifests itself in many ways some times in great sadness, others in anger and sometimes even in anxiety and panic. In working with clients in their depression we most often begin with identification of the depression, clarifying what is depression and what is anxiety, learning how their depression is connected to other thoughts and feelings. We work together utilizing Gestalt therapy, DBT (dialectical behavior therapy) and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) in creating a better understanding of triggers, warning signs and coping skills in very tangible ways.
Depression Therapist
Eliza Boquin, MA, LMFTA
There is a difference between being depressed & feeling sad. Depression affects a person's entire life--emotionally, spiritually, physically. It's difficult to ever believe that life will ever get better--there is a constant dark cloud that looms above. It makes getting through the tasks of a day monumentally challenging and it eats away at our relationships, health, and, ultimately, ourselves. You don't have to suffer alone. Together, we will exam your situation and develop a collaborative team approach with other professionals & resources to help move you forward. To establish a sense of hope that life DOES NOT have to be this way. You deserve to thrive not just survive.
Depression Therapist
Debbie Grammas, Ph.D.
Licensed Psychologist
Life ofen throws us curve balls, and at times it can be overwhelming. Depression is a common symptom that occurs when life becomes too stressful. I help clients understand the relationships among thoughts, feelings and emotions, and how they impact depression. Once we understand the thoughts that are impacting your depression we can work on ways to challenge the destructive thoughts, and help you decrease your symptoms of depression.

"Beer goggles" exist: people do appear more attractive after a few drinks, according to researchers from the University of Bristol. Students who had consumed alcohol rated pictures of people their own age as being more attractive than did the controls in the experiment, who drunk only lime cordial.
Gentlemen do not necessarily prefer blondes. In a study of 3,000 women, 20 per cent of brunettes had had five or more relationships in their life, while only 13 per cent of blondes said the same.
A study by the Canadian Federal election board in 1974 found that attractive candidates polled two and a half times as many votes as unattractive ones.
Being on the pill may affect women's ability to sniff out the perfect partner, according to the University of Liverpool. 100 women were asked to sniff 100 men's sweaty shirts. Those on the pill mostly chose genetically similar odours as the most attractive. Human beings are instinctively inclined to go for genetically dissimilar mates.
A study in Pennsylvania in 1980 found that defendants rated as "attractive" received considerably lighter sentences than unattractive ones.
A study of skulls of human ancestors and modern humans found that women select males with short upper faces. The region between the brow and the lip is scrunched proportionately to the overall head size. Will Smith and Brad Pitt fit the bill.
Wearing too much make-up can mask the scent that attracts men during ovulation. An experiment found that women's armpit scent was at its most attractive to men between the end of their cycle and ovulation, but this can easily be obscured by cosmetics.
A tendency to prefer genetically similar partners may be becoming more pronounced in some social classes, some scientists say. It is possible that one of the causes of the autism epidemic is the growing tendency for successful men to be attracted to and have children with powerful, assertive and intelligent females.
Not everyone is attracted to other humans - there are believed to be around 40 "objectum sexuals" in the world who feel attraction, arousal, love and even commitment for an object instead. Eija-Riitta Berliner-Mauer, for example has been "married" to the Berlin Wall since 1979.
First impressions count. We make a decision on the suitability of someone as a partner within four minutes, a study found.
Don't rely on chat-up lines, as only seven per cent of attraction is down to what you say on a first encounter. Body language is much more important, accounting for 55 per cent, whilst the tone and speed of your voice provides 38 per cent.
Acting like Hugh Grant may be the key to a woman's heart, as self-deprecation is highly attractive. The anthropologist Gil Greengross, who conducted the study, said: "It is a risky form of humour because it can draw attention to one's real faults. But self-deprecating humour can be a reliable indicator, not only of general intelligence and verbal creativity, but also moral virtues such as humility." Trying to be too clever can be off-putting.

The dulcet tones of Owen's voice: Qt3 Podcast10 Jan 2013 0
I had a bit of a late night last night - I stayed up to chat with Tom Chick and Jason McMaster for Quarter to Three's games podcast. I brewed a fresh cup of coffee when we started the show at 11pm London time - a mistake in hindsight because I was wide awake reading about air crash investigations on Wikipedia for long after the recording wrapped up.
I've been reading Tom Chick's writing since I was just a pup, so spending an hour and half chatting about games with him was rather exciting for me. Check out the show over at Qt3 - we discuss PT's game of the year picks, some of the news coming out of CES, and even my secret nationality.
The Skype connection isn't brilliant at first, but it does clear up as the show goes on. Thanks again to Tom for having me on.

Office for iPad was unveiled today, does it matter?
Microsoft finally unveiled the Office for iPad app at an event today, 27 March, in San Francisco, complete with an entire Office suite that includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
Microsoft appealed to iPhone users in the past with an Office app, but it's left iPad users without. Some users have been wanting the iPad version of Office since the iPad launched in April 2010. And now Microsoft is finally giving it to them.
Unlike Apple's iWork suite for iPad, the Office for iPad app isn't a one-time fee. Instead, Microsoft charges for access through its Office 365 program.
Some could argue that if Microsoft released Office for iPad back in 2010, or around there, it could have capatilised off huge sales. But is it too little too late now that Apple, Google, and others have created alternatives to Office that iPad users can take advantage of?
If Microsoft chose not to release Office for iPad, it would potentially have negative impacts on its dominance in the business software space. Microsoft's business division saw $16.2 billion in profit in 2013. And while not all of that is directly contributed by Office - not even a large portion - it does factor into Microsoft's influence on the broader business market.
There are the Microsoft Office loyals - the business and student types - who use it every day and will treat the Office for iPad release like a gift from the heavens. And there are more of those than you might think.
This also could be good for Apple, who has the chance to capitalise off even more business customers. Now that Microsoft is on the platform, more business users will presumably feel comfortable to use the iPad on a daily basis. This translates well for Microsoft - who will see more Office 365 subscriptions as a result.
"It's clear that the enterprise area has huge potential, and we're doing well from a percentage of companies that are using iPhone and iPad," Peter Oppenheimer, CFO at Apple, said on a January conference call. "It's up to unbelievable numbers. The iPhone is used in 97 per cent of the Fortune 500, and 91 per cent of the Global 500, and iPad is used in 98 per cent of the Fortune 500 and 93 per cent of the Global 500."
Office 365, which costs $100 (£79.99) per year for the Home Premium version (there are several small business pricing options too), is believed to have big potential for Microsoft's bottom line. In one year, it's grown to 3.5 million paying customers. And the iPad version will probably help that number even more.
"This past year we grew Office 365 deployed seats over 350 per cent in FY13 alone," Kevin Turner, chief operating officer at Microsoft, said in September 2013. "It's still accelerating. We're only at the tip of the iceberg of this particular opportunity."
Analyst Ross MacMillan of Jefferies predicts $4 billion of additional annual revenue for Microsoft from the Office unit very soon, and calls it one of the most important parts of the company.
But we have to wonder - what if Microsoft released Office for iPad a lot earlier than it has? You would more than likely have a larger business presence (than there already is) on the iPad. And probably a lot less Surface customers for Microsoft.
Compared to the $4 billion business that is being predicted for Office, how does that compare to Surface revenue - and Microsoft's broader picture of $78 billion dollars in revenue? Not very significant.
Maybe it's Apple who is really set to benefit more than Microsoft.

JLCO Hosts: Mulgrew Miller & Kenny Garrett
02/21/14 through 02/22/14
Jazz at Lincoln Center
Rose Theater, 10 Columbus Circle Map
This event has already taken place. Click here for the latest events.
For the first of two "Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra Hosts" concerts of the 2013-14 season, JLCO trombonists Chris Crenshaw and Vincent Gardner turn their attention to the music of pianist Mulgrew Miller and saxophonist Kenny Garrett, whose paths intersected during tenures with Mercer Ellington, Woody Shaw, and Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. As both masters have primarily focused on small ensembles in presenting their respective voices over the last two decades (Miller with the Wingspan combo; Garrett in quartet and trio contexts after a long run with Miles Davis), it will be fascinating to hear them interact with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis' unique sound and sensibility.

Almost all places I visit are gems in their own right, but the real ones -- they're often the ones that I either had no idea about or had little to no expectations of.
A few are frequently observed and seen on a daily basis but not considered impressive -- SSDD to many eyes; other gems begin initially as merely figments of my imagination when they were mentioned in a novel or in classical and contemporary literature -- only to become a-sort-of-fiction-turned-reality type experience.
Curiosity, wanderlust, and the yearning to explore and discover. To document what is not necessarily new to the world, but new to me.
The plan is that there is no plan...
Whether to stumble across something brilliant or to road trip without a destination in mind -- this is just really about the joy of finding something unexpected.
Hike up to "the Roof of Africa" for New Years Day 2016? Potential altitude sickness? Experience the local latrines on the mountain? Why not? I joined a group to tackle the Lemosho Route back in December, and you can see what it was like.
So how long does it take to hike a trail that is close to 900km long? Well, we're still going at it and you can follow along.

LG Joint/Muscle Repair Liquid
LG Joint/Muscle Repair Liquid
I've been using this liquid for about 6 days now. I've been applying it to my lower back and bicep. My bicep is now better, but since it was a muscle pull, I can not say whether the juice helped at all of if it just healed naturally. I can though comment on my lower back. For over a year now i've had lower back pain and visit the chiropractor at least once a week. I apply the liquid 2-3 times daily and I can say that my pain after roughly one week has been relieved some. So far it seems to be helping out and I will continue to use the mysterious liquid. I'll post back in a couple days.

It's amazing what a difference a change of location can make for "American Idol." As proof, you need look no further than this week's pair of episodes.
Tuesday's Los Angeles auditions episode was, in a word, excruciating. The hour felt like three as the show exhibited all its worst tendencies in focusing on the deluded and the delusional and tedious sniping between the judges at the expense of the actually talented people we'll be seeing in later rounds.
Wednesday in Dallas? Totally different story. Yes, we saw more than one awful audition (looking at you, Dexter Ward). But instead of five-minute segments on people with no shot and no talent, we got to see a decent number of Hollywood-bound contestants actually sing. It didn't hurt that guest judges Neil Patrick Harris and Joe Jonas were more interesting than Avril Lavigne and Katy Perry were on Tuesday, but the focus on the good singers — the show's reason for existing, after all — made for a fine hour of TV.
Granted, the focus of any given audition show is going to be determined by the depth of the talent pool — and the L.A. pool looked a lot shallower than the Dallas pool. Except it wasn't, not really: At the end of Tuesday's show we found out 22 people advanced to Hollywood from the L.A. auditions, while 31 made it through from Dallas. Given that thousands showed up in each city, that's not a huge difference.
But you wouldn't have known that from Tuesday's show, would you? And it's not even like we saw so many more good singers in Dallas than in Los Angeles — we got good looks at seven people who advanced from Texas to six from L.A. But the tone of the L.A. show was so mocking and cruel that it became an ordeal. Dallas was much more balanced, and the hour breezed by. That's how I like my "Idol."

FIFA 13 (Xbox 360)
Five game-changing innovations revolutionize artificial intelligence, dribbling, ball control and physical play to create a true battle for possession across the entire pitch, deliver freedom and creativity in attack, and capture all the drama and unpredictability of real-world football. All-new Attacking Intelligence infuses players with the most sophisticated artificial intelligence ever achieved.
Players have the ability to analyse space, work harder and smarter to break down the defence, and think two plays ahead. Now every touch matters with the most comprehensive and intuitive dribbling system ever developed for the franchise. Inspired by the world's best player, Lionel Messi, Complete Dribbling enables players to face their opponent and use precise dribble touches combined with true 360 degree mobility with the ball, so it's easier to be more creative and dangerous in 1v1 opportunities.
FIFA 13 1st Touch Control transforms the way players control the ball, eliminating near-perfect touch for every player on the pitch, and creating more opportunities for defenders to win back possession. The second generation of the Player Impact Engine expands physical play from just collisions to off-the-ball battles between players.
Defenders can push and pull for position, and utilise their size and strength to force opponents into poor touches and decisions before the ball arrives. FIFA 13 Tactical Free Kicks provides the tools to create dangerous and unpredictable free kicks. Position up to three players over the ball and utilise dummy runs and more passing options to outwit your opponent.
FIFA 13 delivers the largest and deepest set of game-changing features in the history of the franchise. Additional features and new modes will be revealed in the months ahead. Attacking Intellig

Time is gaining by those little momments of sharing the precios seconds of our love.
We must be loved so we can love back in the knowing that we are not alone,and wee will
be precios to the person that we love.I know that there are some up and downs in the
family,but thats just apart of beeing loved is,The world is one big cirlce serrounding
the living things,who can put the smile on our faces or cursed them in there faces of
rudnes and rudles.But dont lose jet your hope,because,once the wise man sad to me: That
you canot please everybody in the world,so you please those who is searcing to be
pleased.Love anyone and everyone,because the love will travel back and you will feel
more real that those who dreamed of beeing loved.
