Last week the government announced that there would be no cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) in Social Security benefits next year because the consumer price index it uses shows no inflation over the last two years. In fact, the index shows a slight decline in prices over the last two years.
But this has not stopped the grumbling of many retirees who want more money next year. So with an election just around the corner, the White House and some congressional leaders are suggesting that the government should simply write $250 checks to Social Security beneficiaries. The Concord Coalition opposes this plan as fiscally irresponsible and unfair to younger taxpayers.
In a new blog post Diane Lim Rogers, chief economist for the Concord Coalition, explains why she takes a dim view of the $250 plan, noting that a similar proposal came up a year ago. It is, she complains, simply pandering to one segment of the population. Nor would the money be a particularly effective form of economic stimulus, she says.
She reiterates her argument from a year ago: "Because seniors are guaranteed to receive Social Security benefits regardless of the strength or weakness of the economy, they more than others have had a significant part of their income protected in this recession, and they received special aid in the (February 2009) stimulus package, too."

You guys are superstars. Thank you
Here is a quick video of my assemble Pre-Vizsla season 4-5 gauntlet.
The magnets are "Rare Earth 1/4 x 1/4 cylinders."
The very end of the video was cut off and I was about to say that you can add 2 small strips of velcro on each end near your wrist and elbow to help keep the open end closed once it is on your arm if needed.
PS Remember that Bo-Katan's Top detailed gauntlet parts are on the opposite side as Pre-Vizsla's. And Bo-Katans top covers need to have the 2 small side circles filled in and made smooth.
Kevin W.
Thanks so much for the tips Kevin! Every little bit helps and although I'm still buried in my helmet project, the help you're giving Ash is going to help me a bunch later. :)

Comments about Baudville Character Award Plaque - Full-Size - Red w/ Silver:
This plaque was given to an outstanding, dedicated mechanic in the air ambulance industry. The message was great and unique, the wood looked better in person, not cheap. The ONLY problem I had with this item was the added personal message lines. The script was very nice on the provided message. However, the personalization font, size, and relation to the rest of the plaque were very small comparatively.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I'm about to undertake a CELTA course entry level but can only commit to the 12 week part time course. Can anyone recommend a decent school in London where I can get high quality training for less than £1000 (or ever so slightly above). I've heard International House is good but they charge £1250 and that is over my budget.
Thanks so much.

| Using Technology to Support a Music Curriculum
The newsletter this month includes some ideas that are in keeping with the theme of providing enriching educational opportunities for young people through music. Although such opportunities can come, for example, through simply playing an instrument we are keen at Dolphin Music to shed some light on the opportunities that are available through the use of music technology.
Positive Feedback on Dolphin's Educational Courses
I attended the Dolphin music two day training course in Liverpool last week. I would just like to let you know how good it was. Everything about the course was brilliant.
Portable Ableton Live System
As this is our first newsletter it falls to me to start the ball rolling with an article about some cool kit and how I've been using it. Between finishing at the end of the academic year in July and starting work here at Dolphin I have been away to Australia and SE Asia DJing with Ableton Live. I travelled with my trusted Inta-Audio music laptop, M-Audio FW Audiophile soundcard, Novation Remote 25 MIDI controller and loads of MP3s. That's a lot of kit to be carrying around on planes, boats and 'Tuk-Tuks' you might say – but it's better than carrying a flight-case or two of records I can tell you!
Changes at Dolphin Education
One of the main changes that will be happening at Dolphin Music for education customers is our web site. We're going to change the structure and content so as to simplify the process of browsing for products and as mentioned above offer helpful guides about technology and equipment.
Teacher Training Courses in Liverpool and London
As you may know Dolphin Music offers courses of training for teachers who want to learn about music technology and its application in an educational context. The course is two days in length and covers a range of topics, focussing on relevant equipment, Cubase and Reason [as the two most popular educational software packages] but extending to cover other systems and looking at practical educational application.
Competition and user submissions to web site help guides info
As part of our developing education services we would like to invite our customers to contribute to our newsletter and helpful guide pages.

Good news on D-backs' injury front
Good news on D-backs' injury front
Slaten threw a simulated game on the back practice fields at Tucson Electric Park on Sunday, throwing about 24 pitches to Minor League hitters. He faced right-handers and left-handers and used all his pitches. He even fielded a ball hit back to the mound, giving him a taste of pitchers fielding practice.
"It's kind of the next step for him," manager Bob Melvin said of the simulated game. "I'm really encouraged about him potentially starting [the season] with us. More so than the other guys."
Though Melvin wasn't ready to start speculating on a target date for Randy Johnson to join the roster in the regular season, he has been encouraged by Johnson's smooth progression through recovery so far, including his start on Saturday, when he threw 43 pitches in three innings and allowed only one hit. Johnson is working his way back from back surgery.
"It's been great," Melvin said of Johnson's progress. "We're backing off to the point where we're just thinking about health. That's the most important thing, and he knows to alter from his routine if he has to. We haven't run into any snafus yet. If we get a day where he's a little sorer than normal, we'll just back off a day. If we have to bump him back a day or bump back his bullpen or a start, we'll do it. Everything's been on time so far."
The news is not quite as promising for Miguel Montero (broken finger) and Chad Tracy (microfracture knee surgery). Though neither of them has had a setback, their odds of being ready when the D-backs break camp are getting longer.
"The longer we get, the tougher it is, with Montero several days away from actually doing baseball stuff, and we're going to ease into that, too," Melvin said. "That one's probably a difficult guy to get ready for the season."
MLB.com coverage | Schedule | Ballpark | Tickets
Tracy is in a similar situation, though he is gradually increasing his level of baseball activity. Sunday he participated in some defensive drills with the catchers, taking throws on the bag but keeping away from any kind of fielding or activity requiring lateral movement. He has taken batting practice throughout his rehabilitation process.
"We can do stationary drills with him," Melvin said. "We're maybe a few days away from getting out there and moving around side to side on a field. We're probably still a ways away from doing it in a game.
"The longer Trace isn't out there in game activity, the tougher it'll be for him," Melvin said of Tracy's prospect of making the Opening Day roster. "We do have different scenarios with him, whether it's a limited role, or a guy that's ready to go every day. I would doubt that [he'd be ready for an everyday role]. The farther we go along here, the more difficult it is to get him ready even in a limited role."

On November 6, 2009, the UK's PEM Friends met for their regular Autumn Lunch which is always held in London. As usual, it was in Peter Jones, Sloane Square. The management is always extremely helpful and we have all the space we need for a gathering of between 12 and 20 people, and are never hurried or bothered in any way.
This year's gathering was as enjoyable as ever, although at the last minute five people sent text messages to say they couldn't make it. We were nevertheless a party of fourteen and as ever, new friendships were forged and old friendships rekindled.
It's always so helpful and reassuring to be with people who understand what it's like to have active pemphigus or pemphigoid. Those attending a lunch for a second or third time exhibit such an improvement in their bearing, demeanour and

Dr. Jane Setterfield, who has both private and NHS patients in London, was our guest. Unfortunately she was held up at the hospital and couldn't join us until fairly late on, but those still present had a most illuminating chat with her. As with Dr. Karen Harman, Dr. Setterfield is so generous with her knowledge and answered all our queries in great depth.
From PEM Friends funds, the guest dermatologists are given a £50 Marks & Spencer Gift Voucher as a token of our appreciation.

While several publishers (including O'Reilly) supply excellent documentation of router features, the trick is knowing when, why, and how to use these features There are often many different ways to solve any given networking problem using Cisco devices, and some solutions are clearly more effective than others. The pressing question for a network engineer is which of the many potential solutions is the most appropriate for a particular situation. Once you have decided to use a particular feature, how should you implement it? Unfortunately, the documentation describing a particular command or feature frequently does very little to answer either of these questions.Everybody who has worked with Cisco routers for any length of time has had to ask their friends and co-workers for example router configuration files that show how to solve a common problem. A good working configuration example can often save huge amounts of time and frustration when implementing a feature that you've never used before. The Cisco Cookbook gathers hundreds of example router configurations all in one place.As the name suggests, Cisco Cookbook is organized as a series of recipes. Each recipe begins with a problem statement that describes a common situation that you might face. After each problem statement is a brief solution that shows a sample router configuration or script that you can use to resolve this particular problem. A discussion section then describes the solution, how it works, and when you should or should not use it. The chapters are organized by the feature or protocol discussed. If you are looking for information on a particular feature such as NAT, NTP or SNMP, you can turn to that chapter and find a variety of related recipes. Most chapters list basic problems first, and any unusual or complicated situations last.The Cisco Cookbook will quickly become your "go to" resource for researching and solving complex router configuration issues, saving you time and making your network more efficient. It covers:
Kevin Dooley is an independent networking consultant who has been designing and implementing networks for more than ten years. In that time he has built large scale Local and Wide Area Networks for several of Canada's largest companies. He holds a PhD in physics from the University of Toronto and is the author of Designing Large-Scale LANs.
View Kevin Dooley's full profile page.
Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animal on the cover of Cisco Cookbook is a black jaguar (Panthera onca), sometimes called a black panther. While the color of black (melanastic) jaguars differs from that of the more common golden-yellow variety, they are of the same species. Jaguars of all types are native to the tropics, swamps, and grasslands of Central and South America (and rumored to still exist in parts of the southwestern U.S.), but the black jaguar is usually found only in dense forests. They are between 4 and 6 feet long and have a long tail that is usually about 30 inches long. Males can weigh up to 250 pounds, while females are considerably smaller and rarely grow to more than 150 pounds. Even though black jaguars often appear to be a solid black in artistic renditions and photography, their coats still have the dark rings containing even darker spots that are a distinguishing feature of all jaguars. Also notable are their eyes, which are a shiny reflective yellow.Jaguars will eat almost any animal, including sloths, pigs, deer, monkeys, and cattle. Their hooked claws allow them to catch fish, frogs, turtles, and even small alligators. Even though they sit at the top of the rain forest food chain, humans are a large threat to jaguars of all colors-- it's estimated that only 15,000 jaguars are left in the wild and the species is listed as near threatened. They are hunted for their coats (the black coat is greatly prized) and deforestation threatens their survival.The black jaguar plays a large role in many South American religions, and is often considered a wise and divine animal who is associated with the worlds of magic and spirit. The Aztecs believed that the jaguar was the earthbound representative of their deity, and both the Mayans and Toltecs believed that their Sun God became a black jaguar at night in order to pass unseen through the underworld. Philip Dangler was the production editor and copyeditor for Cisco Cookbook. Sarah Sherman, Derek Di Matteo, Jane Ellin, and Claire Cloutier provided quality control. Julie Hawks wrote the index. Jamie Peppard and Mary Agner provided production assistance.Ellie Volckhausen designed the cover of this book, based on a series design by Edie Freedman. The cover image is a 19th-century engraving from the Dover Pictorial Archive. Emma Colby produced the cover layout with QuarkXPress 4.1using Adobe's ITC Garamond font.David Futato designed the interior layout. This book was converted by Andrew Savikas to FrameMaker 5.5.6 with a format conversion tool created by Erik Ray, Jason McIntosh, Neil Walls, and Mike Sierra that uses Perl and XML technologies. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSans Mono Condensed. The illustrations that appear in the book were produced by Robert Romano and Jessamyn Read using Macromedia FreeHand 9 and Adobe Photoshop 6. The tip and warning icons were drawn by Christopher Bing. This colophon was written by Philip Dangler.

Cisco Cookbook Review
By Gavin Newman
from Undisclosed
Comments about oreilly Cisco Cookbook:
This book is going to sit on my bookshelf along with the other O'Reilly "bibles" that I use on a day to day basis. It distils into on book valuable information required for those who grapple with Cisco routers on a day to day basis.Congratulations to the authors - now that this book has been done what about a similar book covering the Catalyst switches in a similar vein?

By Keith Olson
Another excellent book published by O'Reilly carrying foward their 'tradition' of precise cogent publications for computer professionals.The book's breadth is wonderful - it can be useful to the casual router user but it seems also to have enough material that even someone as advanced as a CCIE would probably find this a handy instrument.As a manager who occassionally is involved in the complexity of networking minutiae, this book was perfect. I could simply review a concept by checking the index and then proceeding to the salient page.The book also had an excellent introduction to basic router hardware and configuration file upkeep. It also had an thorough section on static routing and associated routing masks in chapter 5.I had my staff Networking engineer review this book also - he too thought it was excellent. So good, in fact, that he's planning to purchase his own personal copy. One of his remarks was that this book covers many subjects that cisco itself fails to cover in their website.Overall, this is one of the best O'Reilly books I've ever read - and I've been buying them since 1986.

Approximately one in five Iowa school-age youth participate in 4-H programs, said Keli Tallman, 4-H youth development specialist. In other words, more than 105,000 young Iowans are involved in 4-H clubs, special interest groups, school enrichment, camping and other 4-H programs each year.
Iowa 4-H programs are headquartered at the Iowa State University campus in Ames and available through ISU Extension and Outreach offices in all Iowa counties. During National 4-H Week, local 4-H programs are hosting open houses and special events, and inviting youth to learn about and enroll in 4-H.
"4-H prepares Iowa's youth to be successful, contributing members of society," Tallman said. "We empower youth to reach their full potential through youth-adult partnerships and research-based experiences."
"4-H'ers are kids who learn by doing. We're 'hands-on' with projects that range from citizenship to communication, foods and nutrition, leadership — even science and technology. We're developing life skills today — to become Iowa's leaders tomorrow," said Black Hawk County 4-H'er Mitch Juhl. "We have fun, work hard and learn from our adult mentors. 4-H also provides opportunities for us to 'give back.' Experiences like these are the foundation of 4-H's success."
"4-H is an organization that has taught me how important it is to be involved in my community and I am committed to staying involved as I grow older," said Sac County 4-H'er Renae Drey.
"4-H has given me the chance to hold countless leadership positions, not just in my county, but also statewide through 4-H council and nationally," said Webster County 4-H'er Rebecca Nellis.
"I've developed leadership and teamwork skills that will be immensely beneficial when I go to college and begin looking for a job," said Van Buren County 4-H'er Grace Westercamp.
More than 7,500 adult volunteers contribute their time, energy and expertise to engage youth in hands-on learning experiences in healthy living; science, technology, engineering and math; citizenship and leadership; and communication and the arts.
ISU Extension and Outreach 4-H Youth Development partners with nearly 3,000 organizations, associations, businesses and school districts to strengthen local 4-H programs, including long-term learning experiences with youth through 4-H clubs and shorter-term learning through camps, special events and in-school and out-of-school programs. Nearly 1,000 4-H afterschool programs serve approximately 17,000 children and youth in grades K-12.
"We fully support long-term learning experiences for youth through 4-H clubs. However, we offer a range of short-term to long-term experiences for youth, including clubs as well as after¬school programs, camps, events, and in-school programs. We offer our programs in multiple ways in order to reach more youth," Tallman explained.
"4-H will continue to focus on positive youth development combined with a strong educational foundation for Iowa's youth," she said.
Research has proven that participation in 4-H has a significant positive impact on young people. Recent findings from the Tufts University 4-H Study of Positive Youth Development indicate that, when compared to their peers, young people in 4-H are
Also during National 4-H Week, hundreds of thousands of youth from all around the nation will complete a single, innovative experiment on 4-H National Youth Science Day, on Wednesday, Oct. 9. The 2013 National Science Experiment, 4-H Maps & Apps, will introduce youth to the importance of geographic information systems (GIS) and geographic positioning systems (GPS). Youth will design and map their ideal park, use mapping to solve community problems and contribute data to the U.S. Geological Survey National Map Corps project.

Discussion in 'Football, Baseball, and Hockey' started by BillLaimbeer, Jan 19, 2013.
is this like rolling the ball down the court ?
I would DEFINETLY consider THAT more delay of game than a puck going in the stands.....Why not just make ICING a delay of game penalty??
Maybe because it's not always on purpose.
You know what, I understand why that rule is necessary but I would rather watch a guy chasing the puck than standing around frozen while everyone gets in position until the refs drop it. I'm glad you're back. I was starting to fall asleep.
How about a rule where instead of a shootout, they just mandate the removal of goalies? That would still keep some of the hockey dynamic in there.
I think all sports should have a penalty box. In fact, I think all places of work should have a penalty box. If you burn the french fries, go to the box for 2 minutes. If you mistakenly forget to collate the photocopies, go sit down for a 5-minute major.
An excellent day of Hockey posting starting with OLD SKOOL HQ. Gotta laugh at his prediction though. This ain't the Pistons. We have an excellent coach. We have excellent locker room leadership. Last time I checked, the Ice still says "HOCKEYTOWN". Wings in 7..........book it. RELEASE THE KRAKEN !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop reverse reverse jinxing us. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Get ready to knock those Black Hawks right out of the playoffs!!
I wouldn't ever get anything done if they implement your plan.
What if they have a Hydra ?
The beast with many heads?
Stanley Cup playoffs: Second round preview * little preview * One look at it's eyes and you turn to stone.
Even though the Wings were out shot about 40 the 19 it was tie game until about the 9 minute mark...Then the BHawks poured it on from there. I went into chat again and no one was there? Was it built for Piston games only??
I wonder if Nick Lidstrom would consider coming outta retirement. Our defensemen played like poop. Jimmy Howard was awesome except for that play where he was preoccupied with getting the puck un-stuck from the back of the net. What the heck was he trying to do there?
Wings win 4-1. Last game they lost their energy level and were taken out of the building. This game, we shifted into overdrive and Bloused those Blackhawks. Now two games in HOCKEYTOWN !!! Release the Kraken !!!
Lots of hustle. Great defense, especially by the forwards. Huge win.

Two round natural amethyst are faceted for the maximum shimmer. Around the perimeter are facets and the entire backs are also faceted throughout so the light catches these from every aspect. In the front, inset into each at the center are small natural seed pearls. Thin black enamel surrounds the bottom pearl. All in 14k there is also a pearl between the top mount and bottom dangle.

Dear Auntie,
Some students have complained to me about their teacher, they say he isn't active enough in class. This teacher is fairly new to teaching.
I don't know how to handle the situation. I was promoted to head teacher last year and all this is new to me. Do you have any ideas?

Lots of good advise here. If you want to read about an amazing couple who bought a cheap, rough 100 year old 28 foot boat in Malta because it was cheaper than renting a flat, look up anything you can about Tim and Pauline Carr. They became enchanted with the boats history, learned to sail her well, ended up becoming sailing legends (they are our heros). I.e. living aboard lead to a whole new life path for them.
Although I don't like to go against the flow, I think I would recommend
learning to sail on a smaller boat, something around 12 or 14 feet. Get out with a local club or take a course. Or even borrow a small boat and get out on the water to learn the magic of sailing. Small boats react faster to sail adjustments, teach you what balance means, teach you to maneuver up to docks under sail and you can't do much damage to anything other than your ego. When you can competently sail the small boat, you will be able to figure out how to upgrade the rig on your 30 footer so it is easy to sail.
Sounds like the beginning of a grand adventure.
Lin Pardey
|Go for it if. I would say check out the Pardys book "The Cost Consious Cruiser" I would have liked to have read it before buying, and I would have loved to bought right now also. As I bought my boat almost a year ago and the boats I've seen that are simular are 2-5k less now. Check out Sailingtexas.com there are tons of boats from all around the gulf area and a nice looking Pearson in the 30 foot range for I think around 15k in the Kehmah, Clearlake area of Texas. Don't think less of boats with a tiller as thats one thing I would prefer a year down the line, that and less is more and more is more of a pain!!
Sorry for the (very) late thanks for all the support and suggestions! I'm still in the market, but have not taken the plunge yet. Hopefully this fall after my current assignment is over I'll have more time to research and shop. I'll let you guys know how it turns out!
|--I'd only been out sailing with family friends a few times before taking the plunge. As one of them put it, "It only takes you about 2 hours learn to sail, but you'll spend the rest of your life learning how to sail correctly." It doesn't have to be a barrier to your entry if you're willing to be a slave to the details and be smart about the progressive risks you're willing to take.
Hi anewsailor,
Your circumstances and motivations sound similar to mine a year ago (26, traveling job, didn't want a house, love the water), and I've been happily living aboard a 30'er since last fall. When all was said and done I spent about 15K to have the boat in the shape I wanted and in its slip, with help from a small loan from a local credit union. Since then I've nickel and dimed myself into more expenses and sweat labor, but it's out of love so who's counting. . .
I was going to add a few things about the lifestyle but it went and turned into manifesto length. C'est la vie, make some popcorn. First with the general/financial:
--The insurance suggestion is key. I've found that marinas want proof that you're covered before they'll let you moor there. I also found luck with BoatUS where others wouldn't cover me based on my lack of sailing experience (we had power boats growing up too but it didn't translate over).
--Also to echo another comment, liveaboard moorage can be hard to find so it may end up being your biggest headache if you want to move the boat around much. In Seattle there's a 10% liveaboard limit at all marinas, so I had to sublease someone else's slip for 6 months and make friends with the marina manager to get my foot in the door to my own lease. I recommend this approach to cold-calling marinas -- many have bulletin boards showing sublets or you can keep an eye on craigslist too.
--The bank told me that if I'd wanted to buy a house instead they weren't sure they could support it based on my lack of long-term credit history (no car payments, but many years with a credit card). It's interesting that one needs to make large purchases in a certain order - so in a sense I feel like I'm not only circumventing the system, but improving my chances to buy into it later if I wish.
--A good marine survey is worth its weight in gold. The $400 I paid for mine identified rot in the floor timbers that cost me around 8K to have repaired. Because I knew early, I was able to negotiate with the seller in such a way that I ended up paying exactly what I wanted to spend on the boat.
--Boats take a lot of maintenance, though I can't compare it directly to a house. My list of little tasks and improvements has only grown the more I understand my boat's design and systems, no matter how many evenings and weekends I dedicate. That said, I find it very satisfying to have picked up a number of new skills (sewing, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, etc.) and I'm a constant forum lurker in search of more knowledge. Be prepared for the boat to take lots of your time.
Now on to the saily stuff:
--I'd only been out sailing with family friends a few times before taking the plunge. As one of them put it, "It only takes you about 2 hours learn to sail, but you'll spend the rest of your life learning how to sail correctly." It doesn't have to be a barrier to your entry if you're willing to be a slave to the details and be smart about the progressive risks you're willing to take.
-Books are good. Having a partner is good (for reasons already mentioned which I second). Being a patient learner and teacher is good. Having a GPS and charting program is good. Having someone show you how to maneuver a sailboat into the dock is very good (it surprised me how differently they turn compared to power boats and how that impacts your timing/choices). All the rest is just pulling on ropes until you like what you see. I say this being a mostly fair-weather sailor, so apply the grain of salt here.
Final thoughts:
--When I was still in the considering phase, my best friend put the question to me this way: "Suppose you buy the boat and it sinks within a year or you just don't like it anymore. And if in the end you lose that money and have just **** in your hand, will you still be glad that you chose the experience?" So far I'd still say yes, and the switch from apartment to moorage fees cut my rent in half so I can convince myself that it's paying itself off. Math is fun.
--Living aboard feels surprisingly normal within a short amount of time. Now I have no problem plodding up the dock to the shower in my bathrobe, I've gotten used to rearranging the whole boat in order to get at that one thing you need, and I've even grown to like the slight boaty smell. I'd find it hard to share, but 30' fits me very well.
--Things that suck include ironing your clothes, trying to get intimate in a low-ceilinged v-shape bed (sorry, true), the fridge that's never quite cold enough which leads to lots of soup, sandwiches, and pasta onboard, and finding a place for shoes and tools (I just use the head as storage when at port). But hey, as long as I can boil water and use the Internet, I'm largely happy because I come home to a freaking boat!
Good luck!
BTW - I've had people say very similar things to me about my boat and sailing ability!
Thanks mang. It's my namesake, from the comic book Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, which is sort of like a twisted dark bloodthirsty calvin and hobbes by the guy who did the show invader zim.
Good on ya for your avatar btw. "Your little car's gonna drown. And you're gonna die, wearing that stupid hat. How does it feel? "
nailbunny, dude, very cool avatar! What the hell is it?
And welcome to you and anew!

I would suggest that you read information provided by either glen beck or lou dobbs , both of whom have studied the whole transcripts.

It is also of interest that he was given an honorable discharge from the army , whom the prosecution has contended he was given a letter of reprimand for gun charges; something that the army disputes. Of course the government can call a you a terrorist because you like guns and that by its very nature makes you a law breaker.

Thread: A Great Story I wanted to Share
A Great Story I wanted to Share
This is a great story that I took off our website and thought I would pass it on to my friends here at 3dshoots.com
Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it. From a distance, each horse looks like any other horse. But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing. Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him. This alone is amazing. If you stand nearby and listen, you will hear the sound of a bell. Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field. Attached to the horse's halter is a small bell. It lets the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can follow. As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see that the horse with the bell is always checking on the blind horse, and that the blind horse will listen for the bell and then slowly walk to where the other horse is, trusting that he will not be led astray. When the hor se with the bell returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, it stops occasionally and looks back, making sure that the blind friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell. Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges. He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need. Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing bell of those who God places in our lives. Other times we are the guide horse, helping others to find their way.
Good friends are like that... you may not always see them, but you know they are always there. Please listen for my bell and I'll listen for yours. And remember... be kinder than necessary everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.www.Missouriwhitetails.com

But I think whether you like horses or not this is a very moving story. It is sad that at times animals can show more compassion and willingness to help one another than most people can in a life time. On a different note, when I had to have an emergency appendictomy, after I got home when I was alone my English Mastiff Merlin was always by my side and would'nt let me out of his sight especially when I would try to get up and had trouble moving around. He also kept my basset hound away after he got really wound up and jump up on me. It is weird that animals can sense when you are in pain and upset and just be there for you when you are down.Target: Hoyt ProElite XT3000 C2, 60# 30", CBE Quad Lite, CBE 3x .019, Trophy Taker, Easton Fatboy 400's(indoor) lightspeed 400 (outdoor)

April 2, 2014 – The Dutchess Community College Foundation's annual Gala - Community's Bridge to the Future - was held on March 29 at the Grandview in Poughkeepsie. The event drew approximately 400 guests to honor seven outstanding individuals and raised more than $160,000 for student scholarships.
Patrick, Stephen, Mark and Sue Adams, James Fedorchak and Wayne Nussbickel were inducted into the Alumni Hall of Fame, while DCC President D. David Conklin received the Bernard Handel Community Leadership Award.
Adams Fairacre Farms is one of the most successful independently owned and operated businesses in the Hudson Valley. Since it opened as a farm stand in the early 1900s, Adams has earned a reputation for value, variety, convenience and customer service as it has grown to include four stores. Patrick Adams is CEO for the company while Stephen serves as General Manager.
Mark Adams owns Adams Greenhouses with his wife, Sue, who is vice president. They oversee five acres of greenhouses and a production area where hundreds of thousands of plants are grown every year, making for the largest selection of locally grown plants in the Hudson Valley.
Fedorchak currently serves as Dutchess County attorney following a successful 30-year career as a lawyer in private practice. He is an adjunct instructor at both DCC and Marist College, and his professional affiliations include membership in the Dutchess County Bar Association and New York State Bar Association, where he has served as a member of the House of Delegates for four terms. He serves on the DCC Foundation Board and is a former College Trustee.
Nussbickel is the President and CEO of N & S Supply, a family owned, full service plumbing, heating and air conditioning wholesaler with headquarters in Fishkill. His honors include the Poughkeepsie Journal's 2006 Business Person of the Year award, the 2006 Marist College President's Award for Community Service and the 2009 Gateway for Entrepreneurs of Tomorrow Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
Dr. Conklin will retire from his position as president of Dutchess Community College in August. His commitment to community service is demonstrated not only by his work to make public higher education accessible to area residents, but also his personal involvement with numerous organizations across the county. He served as chair of the Dutchess/Poughkeepsie Empire Zone Administrative Board for 16 years. His additional civic contributions have been many. Currently he sits on the Dutchess County Economic Development Corporation board of directors as well as its External Marketing Council, and on the Vassar Brothers Medical Center Board of Trustees.
Gala sponsors included Bonura Hospitality Group, Clear Channel Radio of the Hudson Valley, the Poughkeepsie Journal, Absolute Auction & Realty, Adams Fairacre Farms, Rhinebeck Bank and Royal Carting.

Practice practice practice Work on going up to the door (with noone there) and having her sitting calmly and waiting beside you, have a family member or friend volunteer to help you and have them knock at the door. Depending on what you're looking for, shape the behaviour you want. So if you want an alert bark let the dog bark the number you'd like and mark and reward. Same thing with greeting, shape the greeting you want slowly and heavily praise when they comply
Shaping really helps in showing the dog in small steps what you're looking for. It'll take time, keep a small bag of treats at the door for those unexpected moments as it will come in handy. You should see the dog realizing that certain behavious get rewarded and they will start to gravitate towards them
Train her to have a "spot" when she hears the doorbell ring. Make sure it is out of the way of your incoming guests.
She must stay in that spot, quiet and calm until your guest are ready to greet her. She only gets to greet them when she is calm though.
This will take a lot of practice, since the doorbell is always so exciting! Lot of treats, and I would suggest a clicker to help train. I just picked one up from our petstore for a few dollars, and my dog picked up on it right away. WE love it!
Greeting Visitors Calmly
Hi All, I need some advice on how i could train my German Shepherd to greet visitors calmly. She is about 1.5 years old, sweet and lovely girl, but she gets all jumpy, happy and excited when visitors who she has met before come home. As soon as the door bell rings, she goes nuts, starts barking, pacing around. When my friends come home, she jumps on them and i keep telling my friends to ignore her, but they start petting her, talking to her and she jumps all over them. How can i teach her the right way to greet visitors?

The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs will host a Director's Lunch with author, Emile Simpson to discuss his book entitled War From the Ground Up: Twenty- First-Century Combat as Politics, in the Belfer Center Library (L369).
Sir Michael Howard in a recent literary review described Simpson's work: "Emile Simpson's War From the Ground Up is a work of such importance that it should be compulsory reading at every level in the military; from the most recently enlisted cadet to the Chief of the Defence Staff and, even more important, the members of the National Security Council who guide him." The Times Literary Supplement
Emile Simpson served in the British Army from 2006-12 as an infantry officer in the Royal Gurkha Rifles. He completed three tours in Southern Afghanistan, as well as service in Brunei, Nepal, and the Falkland Islands. He previously graduated in history from the University of Oxford, First Class Honours, and subsequently returned as a Visiting Defence Fellow to the Oxford "Changing Character of War" research program. He holds a graduate diploma in English law. War From the Ground Up: Twenty- First-Century Combat as Politics (2012) is his first book.

Arsène Wenger believes the Arsenal 2012 Tour, presented by Emirates, was an invaluable experience on a number of levels.
Wenger and his players returned to London on Monday morning after a successful three-stop trip, which included games against a Malaysia XI, Manchester City and FC Kitchee.
The manager knows there is still work to do on the training pitches ahead of the new season but he says the tour was a big success.
"It has been good for us because let's not forget that we had a very demanding tour physically, with a lot of travelling and a lot of hot weather," Wenger told Arsenal Player. "You could see that it took us time to get into the games.
"But it has been a good experience on all fronts; camaraderie and meeting new people in new countries. On the physical side we had to dig deep every time.
"All of the players are fighting to get back to the physical standards that are requested. But there are some positives. Diaby played three games - OK only three halves, but it is still three games. We have no injuries from the tour and it was a great experience."

I appreciate zuffa have to be tough and stick by what the regulators say, but putting forward 130k and then taking it back, off a silly mistake - but ultimately forgiveable act, is harsh. to give the bonuses is within their gift, they had the option of taking back a percentage. taking back the lot is moody.
they still have the tape of that wicked fight which i imagine they will sell in whatever format forever anyway. maybe if they are so keen to send a clear message they should delete it from the DVD etc. are they gonna do that? no, course not.
I'm defending a man who beat Paul Daley and Dan Hardy when a shot at the main stage was within grasp for them years ago, years before UFC came to the UK. i have resented him for years off the back of that - real talk lol - but i wouldn't wish this level of severity on anyone.
general point not directed at any individuals - if life is so black and white for you that you don't feel any sympathy for this fella, dunno what to say. or care what i hear.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Would it be possible to get him a friend? I have always had at least two just for this reason. I, too, have done the pretend-to-leave tests, and they settle in and sleep. I care for my sister who requires a treatment at a hospital in another city once a month, so they are left alone for about 6 hours that day. I do crate one, but the other is loose, in our mud room/breezeway. When we get home, they are both calm and yawning, as though we woke them up.
Separation Anxiety
My Golden is a 5 years old male and he was with me since he was a puppy.
He comes with me to work everyday and we spend a lot of time together.
When I need to go somewhere (run errands or have fun) I leave him in a dog run. I leave with him toys, water and some treats. He is not hesitant to go to the dog run, he actually leads the way. He eats the treats immediately, but it looks like he never touches the water or the toys. I think all he does is run from one and of the run to the other and stresses out . He also howls, my neighbors told me, and once I myself pretended that I left, but actually I was sitting in the car on the street and listened what happens. First 20 minutes or so was quiet, then he howled for a minute or so, then it was quiet again for a while and then he howled again.
I also tried to leave him in the backyard, not sure if he howled, but when I came home I observed him from the inside and again all he did was run from one end of the backyard to the other end and stress out. When I come home from work I leave him in the front yard sometimes, he seems to be ok there. Sometimes he asks to go out in the backyard and I let him go and he is ok while I am at home, but when I leave he stresses out. He is also ok left alone in my room while I take a shower or alone downstairs while I do things upstairs.
I think he has mild to moderate separation anxiety and I just don't know how to deal with it. It is affecting my life too much and it stresses me out. Knowing that while I am gone he is himself stressing out and tormenting the neighbors with the howling puts quite a pressure on me. When I am out I always hurry home because of him.
I read tons of books about separation anxiety, but the process is so lengthy and in addition when I have to leave now I don't have anybody I could leave him with. How do I deal with it? I hope someone has an answer. Did someone go through a similar case of separation anxiety? How did you solve it?

Carolina junior Marta Malmberg was the Elite 89 winner in 2011. The award is now in its fourth year, and UNC is the only school to have won more than once.
"Loren is such an outstanding example of a student-athlete who is excelling both academically and athletically," UNC coach Karen Shelton said. "That's what we want to see from all of our Tar Heels. She works so hard on and off the field and it shows - while earning straight A's, she also has earned All-ACC Tournament honors.
"And I'm so proud for our program that we've received this award two years in a row. To even be eligible, your team has to be one of the last four competing, which is such an achievement in itself. To play outstanding field hockey and be the best of an elite group academically is a great accomplishment."
Shealy starts at forward for the Tar Heels, who will take on Syracuse Friday at 2 p.m. in an NCAA semifinal game. Maryland and Princeton will face off in the second game, with the winners advancing to the national championship game on Sunday at 1p.m. UNC is playing in its fourth consecutive final four and fifth in the past six years.
The Elite 89 program was founded by the NCAA to recognize "the true essence of the student-athlete by honoring the individual who has reached the pinnacle of competition at the national championship level in his or her sport, while also achieving the highest academic standard among his or her peers."
Shealy, the first student-athlete to be part of the prestigious Robertson Scholars program at UNC, is the fifth Tar Heel student-athlete to win the NCAA award. Bill Dworsky was the men's soccer winner in 2009, Kristi Eveland won for women's soccer the same year, Meredith Newton won for women's lacrosse in 2010, and Marta Malmberg won for field hockey in 2011.

Five years ago, Wauwatosa neighbors Sandy Murphy and Brett Swider opened Highlands Café in a tiny space on North 60th Street. A few weeks ago, they expanded that space from eight to 49 seats in a space that now reaches to the corner of 60th and Vliet.
Despite the expansion, Swider tends to be rather humble when describing his restaurant.
"It's a neighborhood place," he said.
Indeed, the Highlands Café IS a neighborhood place. Originally started as more of a coffee shop that happened to serve breakfast and lunch items, it has now grown up into a full-fledged restaurant with, you guessed it, an executive chef - Steven Holz - who also happens to be a Tosa native.
And although the management and the food are decidedly local, the menu is one varied and sophisticated enough to attract diners from all over the city.
Some of their signature or most popular dishes include: the fried chicken - boneless and served with polenta ($10.99), baked french toast ($6.99) and chorizo, veggie or ribeye and pancetta hash ($3 for a half-order/$7.99-8.99 for a full order.)
"Everything is moderately priced with a great plate presentation," Swider said. "We do a lot of local food here and we simply serve really good American food."
Since the expansion is a recent change, there is still no sign designating the restaurant. But the large windows clearly expose the new dining area and it's fairly easy to spot Highlands Café on the northwest corner of 60th and Vliet.
"Highlands Café is a gathering place for people from the neighborhood," Swider said. "We have a lot of walk-in traffic. And we're just a bunch of Tosa natives having fun."
NAME: Highlands Café

They had come for a good time, to listen to music, hang out, play drinking games. But as the night stretched on, a fight seemed inevitable:
Kaleb Yazzie and Ammon Karr were not getting along, witnesses testified Monday in 3rd District Court. As a half dozen of their friends partied around them, the two men argued, refused to apologize. The more they had to drink, witnesses said, the worse it got.
Eventually, Karr asked Yazzie to leave, and moved to escort him out the front door of his Capitol Hill area home.
What came next was a blur besmirched by blood and screams.
Adam Karr leaped into a fist fight between his brother, Ammon Karr, and Kaleb Yazzie on the front porch of the house, prosecutors said. He pulled a knife he had concealed behind his back, prosecutors said, and stabbed Yazzie until the man could barely walk.
Adam Karr, 27, was ordered Monday to stand trial on charges of first-degree felony murder and second-degree felony obstruction of justice in the July 2012 slaying of 22-year-old Yazzie. If convicted, Karr could face life in prison.
Witnesses from the party at the home near Girard Avenue (560 North) and Desoto Street (40 East), most of whom were underage and intoxicated at the time of the stabbing, said Yazzie stumbled off the porch, bent at the waist and clutching his friend Christopher Hernandez for support.
Yazzie collapsed near the base of a tree on the far side of the property. Blood pooled around his body. His breathing became ragged.
"I tried to pull him away from the house, but I saw people coming after me," said Hernandez, who called 911 before walking from the party back to his Midvale home. "I had no clue where I was. I didn't know what to do."
According to witnesses, Adam Karr had threatened to stab Yazzie earlier in the night in defense of his younger brother.
"He looked at [Yazzie] and said, 'This kid don't even know,' " said Jacob French, who lived with the defendant at the time of the stabbing. "He said he was going to shank him, then he got up, pulled out a knife and went upstairs."
Marisa Lee, 18, said she pleaded with Karr to hand over the weapon, a pocket knife with a silver blade and white handle.
"Adam had a knife in his hand and said, 'If he touches my brother, I'll stab him.' That's when I asked him to give me the knife," she said. "He said no."
Karr's defense attorney Richard Mauro pointed to inconsistencies in the witnesses' testimony and questioned the accuracy of their claims given the amount of alcohol and drugs several consumed on the night Yazzie was killed.
Mauro characterized Karr's actions as legal and reasonable under a defense of habitation law passed by the Utah Legislature in the 1980s.
According to the law, a person has the right to defend their home from an intruder by use of lethal force if they perceive the intruder will cause them bodily harm or will commit a crime in their residence.
"If the police were called because Yazzie hit his brother in his house after he was told to leave, Mr. Yazzie would have been charged with a felony," Mauro said. "I think once he's told to leave, remaining in that house is unlawful."
Prosecutor Paul Parker said because the stabbing happened after Yazzie had already been forced out of the residence, it was not a protected act of defense.
"If you have someone intoxicated in your house and you want them to leave, you can't just kill them," he said.
Judge James Blanch did not rule on this characterization after hearing nearly eight hours of testimony Monday.
