What's the best cocktail bar in town?
That's easy and it's no big secret. The Broken Shaker in Miami Beach is a one‐of‐a‐kind cocktail beach bar experience that is not to be missed. This place has the greatest vibe and the tastiest cocktails that are concocted with elixirs, syrups, and infusions made from garden herbs and spices, fresh‐pressed produce and exotic ingredients from around the world (and their very own garden growing all around the outdoor tables). This place is fabulous, even if it is in a hostel!
What's the best drink in town?
Anything they're pouring at The Broker Shaker for starters. Their cocktail list seems to change so often that it's hard to pin down a single favorite, although last time I was there I had a Salted Caramel Old Fashioned which was unforgettable. Another contender would definitely be the Sage Thrasher at Blackbird Ordinary, a nearby Brickell watering hole where the drinks are anything but ordinary. This place is also a great place to rub shoulders with real locals.
Who do you think is the best bartender in Miami?
I'm partial to girls behind the bar, so I think I'd have to pick Virginia over at The Broken Shaker. I know I keep mentioning that place...but sorry, I love the drinks there! If you can track her down, Ashley Danella, the head bartender for Pubbelly is also fabulously talented.
Where's a great place to catch some great DJ sets over some good drinks?
I can't say enough about the Rec Room at the Gale. It's an amazing combination of retro style and approachable cool which feels exclusive and welcoming at the same time. It's super hot right now so try to get there early (it opens at 11pm) to avoid a long wait or disappointment.
Where's a great place to go for a great beer?
I'm not always a beer girl, but our very own Biscayne Tavern is always a good bet it you want to sample some local craft drafts. You can usually count on seven or eight locally brewed beers on draft, including some of my favorites from the Wynwood Brewing Company.
What's your favorite local brewery?
Top of my list is the nearby Wynwood Brewing Company, which finally opened their tap room at 565 NW Street, just a few minutes away. I adore their famous La Rubia Blonde Ale, but I'm also partial to their IPA. Thursday is ladies' night from 7pm to close and it's a great place to start the evening.

Goodge Street was a London Underground station that wasn't on the Circle line, but was within the Circle line's perimeter. Largely because of this fact, it was able to be used a central headquarters for the British Army as they monitored the spread of the Web around the Circle line. However, this meant that once the Web had spread all the way around the Circle anyone at Goodge Street was, as Staff Sergeant Albert Arnold put it, "trapped".
In the Army headquarters off the main platform, the Doctor and Edward Travers renewed their friendship, while he and Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart got to know each other for the first time. (TV: The Web of Fear)
Behind the scenes Edit
Goodge Street's location relative to the Circle line is made clear during Lethbridge-Stewart's initial briefing in the third episode. There Arnold literally points to a map to get his point across.

The socialite is hoping to release her sophomore album featuring label mates Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj and Drake.
Hotel heiress and socialite Paris Hilton wants to revive her music career and she signed up with Birdman's Cash Money Records to move closer to her goal. For her sophomore album, the 32-year-old celebrity would like to feature multiple hip-hop acts and joining the hip-hop recording superstar-filled label is looking to be a wise decision on her part.
"This is a lot different than my first album," Hilton said about her intended follow-up to her self-titled debut album released back in 2006. However, despite the presence of top hip-hop artists, Hilton said, "It's really going to be house music" with Afrojack serving as the record's producer.
Although her rep did not confirm the record deal, Cash Money Records CEO Birdman was quick to welcome the multi-media star to the family. "Welcome @ParisHilton to tha Family. RichgangRichgirl. YMCMB," the Young Money Cash Money Billionaires boss tweeted on Wednesday, May 22.
Meanwhile, Hilton made her own confirmation as well of joining the hip-hop label by posting the music video of "Last Night" on Twitter, her collaboration with Lil Wayne released late last year. "Love this song I recorded with @LilTunechi, Love Lil Wayne, he is so amazing! Can't wait for our new song! #I(heart)YMCMB," went the caption. By joining Cash Money Records, Hilton can have all the dream collaborations she wants with label mates Nicki Minaj, Drake and many others.

Survey of CAM interest, self-care, and satisfaction with health care for type 2 diabetes at group health cooperative
Very little research has explored the factors that influence interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) treatments. We surveyed persons with sub-optimally controlled type 2 diabetes to evaluate potential relationships between interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) treatments, current self-care practices, motivation to improve self-care practices and satisfaction with current health care for diabetes.
321 patients from a large integrated healthcare system with type 2 diabetes, who were not using insulin and had hemoglobin A1c values between 7.5-9.5%, were telephoned between 2009-2010 and asked about their self-care behaviors, motivation to change, satisfaction with current health care and interest in trying naturopathic (ND) care for their diabetes. Responses from patients most interested in trying ND care were compared with those from patients with less interest.
219 (68.5%) patients completed the survey. Nearly half (48%) stated they would be very likely to try ND care for their diabetes if covered by their insurance. Interest in trying ND care was not related to patient demographics, health history, clinical status, or self-care behaviors. Patients with greater interest in trying ND care rated their current healthcare as less effective for controlling their blood sugar (mean response 5.9 +/- 1.9 vs. 6.6 +/- 1.5, p = 0.003), and were more determined to succeed in self-care (p = 0.007). Current CAM use for diabetes was also greater in ND interested patients.
Patients with sub-optimally controlled type 2 diabetes expressed a high level of interest in trying ND care. Those patients with the greatest interest were less satisfied with their diabetes care, more motivated to engage in self-care, and more likely to use other CAM therapies for their diabetes.
Risk factor control is generally poor for people in the United States with type 2 diabetes. Estimates from large national surveys, US medical centers and primary care practices all suggest less than half of patients meet recommended targets for the individual cardiometabolic risk factors hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), blood pressure and lipids, and at most 10% have all three risk factors within recommended target ranges
Interest in complementary and alternative medical (CAM) treatments has increased over time, and CAM therapies are used by significant numbers of patients with type 2 diabetes. Excluding solitary prayer, estimates of CAM use
Little is known about the effectiveness of multi-modality "whole-system" CAM approaches to treat diabetes. One small, randomized clinical trial of multi-modality, whole-system Ayurvedic care for type 2 diabetes suggested Ayurvedic approaches reduce clinical risk factors, including fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1c
In order to determine which types of CAM are being used by patients
Study Design
Our goal was to administer a telephone-based survey to 200 patients with moderately to poorly controlled type 2 diabetes who receive care from Group Health Cooperative (GHC), a large non-profit, integrated health care system in Washington State. We used electronic medical records to identify potentially eligible patients. All elements of the study were reviewed and approved by the GHC Institutional Review Board.
Eligible participants were GHC members aged 21-65 years diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Because our survey was performed in preparation for a clinical trial, and we were interested in surveying patients with the greatest potential for improvements in clinical risk factors, we only surveyed patients who had a HbA1c value between 7.5-9.5% within the past year in their electronic medical record who also had at least one additional cardiometabolic risk factor (i.e., elevated lipids, blood pressure or obesity). Similarly, we applied the same exclusion criteria in our survey that we planned to apply in our clinical trial. We therefore excluded patients using insulin, those who had a myocardial infarction or stroke within the past six months, and those with a recent history of bariatric surgery or diagnosis of severe psychiatric illness. To avoid interference with other studies, we sampled patients receiving care from clinics outside of the immediate Seattle area. We mailed invitation letters to 350 randomly selected patients meeting our inclusion/exclusion criteria. The letters included a $2 bill and a response card allowing patients to refuse the survey.
Study Questionnaire
Between 2009-2010, a research specialist telephoned non-refusing patients, explained the study and confirmed eligibility. Once eligibility was confirmed, patients were queried about their demographics (e.g., age, gender, education, ethnicity and income), personal health behaviors, i.e., smoking status; medical history including: year of diabetes diagnosis, history of cardiovascular disease (i.e., heart failure, heart attack and/or stroke); and the presence or absence of micro-vascular complications (i.e., neuropathy, retinopathy, cataracts, and/or nephropathy).
Patients were then asked to rate their health care overall and their health care specifically for their diabetes on 0-10 Likert scales with 0 = "Worst care possible" and 10 = "Best care possible". They were also asked to rate their knowledge of ND care (1-5 Likert scale ranging from 1 = "No knowledge" to 5 = "A lot of knowledge"), whether they had ever visited a ND provider for their diabetes, and about their interest in pursuing ND care
To assess current self-care behavior for diabetes, we used the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) instrument
Statistical Analysis
Data were recorded in a master database and analyzed using SAS statistical software version 9.2 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC). Our data analysis plan was developed before the analyses were conducted. Because our primary study questions related to possible differences in self-care, perceptions and readiness to change in ND interested patients vs. patients with less interest we defined "ND Interested" as those patients who said they were "Very likely" to try ND care if covered by their health plan; all other patients were defined as "Less ND Interested". Descriptive statistics were calculated for all patient demographics and health history variables for the entire cohort and then responses were compared using chi2 tests for proportions and t-tests for means to see if there were differences by level of interest in ND care. Our primary analysis compared mean responses to the SDSCA, PBSC and the RI. Finally, the proportions of ND Interested and Less ND Interested patients with history of CAM use were compared for each category of CAM using chi2 tests.
Of the 350 patients who were sent invitation letters, 56 (16%) refused participation, 45 (13%) could not be contacted, and 29 (9%) either volunteered previously unrecorded medical history requiring their exclusion (including cancer, type 1 diabetes or bariatric surgery) or were no longer current GHC enrollees, leaving 321 eligible patients for inclusion in the sample. Of this remaining sample, 219 patients were successfully interviewed (68.5% of the 321 eligible patients).
Reflecting the demographic characteristics of western Washington, survey respondents had relatively high levels of education and income (Table

Table 1 details the baseline demographics and clinical characteristics of the entire survey sample and compared by ND Interest subgroups. The reported P-values are for differences in proportions compared between subgroups by chi2 test.
Almost half of the patients (48%) said they were "Very likely" to try ND care for their diabetes if covered by their health plan (Table
According to their SDSCA responses, participants reported relatively high levels of adherence to taking their medications and following healthful eating plans (Figure

Respondents generally reported high motivation to change self-care. 59% reported they "Strongly agreed" that they think about the consequences of not changing their self-care and 52% "Strongly agreed" they need to change current self-care behavior. However, only 32% reported that they "Strongly agree" to active planning for changes in their self-care behaviors. Although respondents were generally highly motivated to change self-care (Table

Table 3 reports the frequency of CAM use by the entire survey sample and compared by ND Interest subgroups. The reported P-values are for differences in proportions compared between subgroups by chi2 test.
Our results suggest that use of and interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is high among patients with type 2 diabetes. Current and previous CAM use and knowledge of ND care were associated with greater interest in ND services
These findings differ from those of the ELDER study which found significant associations between use of CAM for diabetes and increased self-care behaviors, including more days following a healthful eating plan, monitoring glucose, engaging in foot care and adhering to medication
Patients in our study using more CAM practices and expressing more interest in ND care, reported higher motivation toward self-care. However, patients with greater interest in ND care rated care for their diabetes
The findings from this survey have important clinical implications for conventional and CAM clinical care settings. In general, our sample had a high frequency of elevated cardiometabolic risk factors, and therefore risk reductions and subsequent improvements in clinical outcomes are possible if these patients were to be matched with effective services, perhaps including the one-on-one dietary and physical activity counseling recommended per preventive service guidelines
The major limitation of this survey is its restriction to members of a single health plan in Washington State. Because our sample was nearly 70% white and nearly 80% had at least some college education, our results may not apply to geographic regions with more diverse populations. In particular, because CAM use has been associated with higher levels of education in other observational studies
A high priority for diabetes research is how best to design, implement and evaluate innovative programs in primary care that motivate patients to adopt self-care behaviors
We found that patients interested in naturopathic (ND) care did not report higher levels of self-care behavior, which contrasts the common belief that users of CAM therapies are inherently more engaged in their self-care. We did find, however, that ND Interested patients were more highly motivated to change their behaviors than those with less interest. Another novel finding of this study has been that ND interested patients rated their diabetes care less favorably and considered healthcare less helpful for glucose control, feelings which may contribute to their greater interest in trying alternative approaches to their diabetes care. Our results document, possibly for the first time, a significant use of CAM therapies, especially natural products, specifically
The totality of these findings suggest there is a subgroup of patients with type 2 diabetes who are not satisfied with their current diabetes care, but are highly motivated to improve their self-care behaviors by trying new approaches, such as CAM therapies and ND care. These circumstances suggest that the time is right to conduct scientifically rigorous studies evaluating the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of ND care and perhaps other CAM therapies for this common, debilitating and costly health problem.

so cuuuute…
I just keep being unable to open the pattern pdf file! Could you please send it to my email address: firstname.lastname@example.com
thanks, Muriel
Kimara says
Try rebooting your system. Sometimes it just its a tad bit wonky and a reboot helps. There should be no reason why you can't open the file unless you have some specific security settings prohibiting it. Or… try clicking directly on this link: http://weefolkart.com/wp-content/uploads/patterns/walking-bunny-fingerpuppet.pdf . If you still can't open it, let me know and I'll email the pdf to you.

Hi! I just finished doing the felt pizza and I love it! I am confused about something, though. When you say 6 strands, what does that mean? Does it mean six seperate pieces of the embroidery thread? Or does it mean you split the individual piece by the threads? I am trying to do the eyes with six pieces of embroidery thread and it id difficult! Help!
Kimara says
I mean you use all 6 strands of the embroidery floss. Do not separate the strands. But here's a little trick I found that makes it easier when you are doing the woven spider wheel. After you make the 5 spokes, use the blunt "eye" part of the needle, not the sharp point, to weave the thread in and out of the spokes. It does start getting crowded, but keep weaving until you can't see any part of the spokes. Hope that helps 🙂
Jessica says
Haha wooooow. My fingers are rejoicing! I wish I had thought to ask before I did 3 pieces of embroidery floss for the whole pizza! Thank you so much for your responses… I really want to be able to sew and I am trying to teach myself, starting with your patterns. I am really enjoying myself and, again, am so thankful for the information you have on this site!!!

Back in 1993, before SatAM had even aired, the developers at the Sega Techinical Institute were already brainstorming ways to bring its world and characters to the Genesis. Sadly, the project was aborted before it had even begun in earnest, and all we have today is the following pitch video, an animated demo made on Amiga computers by Peter Morawiec and John Duggan to demo the game concepts.
The video was donated to the Sonic community by Peter Morawiec, who describes it in this interview with Sega-16:
Shortly after finishing Sonic Spinball, Roger Hector (STI's boss) took Naka's team and a number of us down to DiC Animation in Burbank, CA. The studio was about to start production on a Sonic cartoon series for the ABC TV network. It was a funny meeting – the storyboards were super Warner Bros'y, all squash-and-stretch, and full of silly slapstick humor. The Sonic Team guys sat through the spiel all stone-faced, so I don't think they liked it very much. Roger was interested in having STI create a spin-off game based on the show, so I tried to come up with a gameplay format allowing for more story and adventure than the original Sonic games. I had made a number of these Amiga demos by then, so it didn't take very long to put together, probably less than a week. John Duggan (STI's Art Director) created the title screen and helped with the character sprites.
Unfortunately, it wasn't easy to animate fast-scrolling backgrounds in Brilliance, so the demo came off too slow-paced, though I always intended for it to have some fast-moving sections. From what I heard, Naka gave the design thumbs down, but it was probably the right decision. The cartoon wasn't even out, so banking on its success would've been premature, and too many spin-offs for a fresh new franchise are likely to do more harm than good. I was really excited to get started on Comix Zone which was just green lit, so the design was shelved…
As an avid viewer of SatAM, as well as a fan of the games, I know I would have been absolutely delighted to play this if it had been made. I can't help but feel that nixing this was a big miscalculation on Sega's part, especially considering the creativity, attitude, and great animation on display in Comix Zone, STI's subsequent project. There's no doubt in my mind that, given the chance, they could have pulled this off, and pulled it off brilliantly.
It may be easy for some to be all "sour grapes" and dismiss this demo as too slow paced or clunky, and claim that it's all for the best that it was never greenlit. But – as is clearly demonstrated by the Amiga pitch video for Sonic Spinball below – had this game actually made it to the Genesis it would have been dramatically faster and cooler.
Sometimes I wish STI had not only gotten the chance to make this Genesis SatAM game, but that it had been the start of a long line of them extending into the 32-bit era. When playing games like Spyro 2, I occasionally find myself mentally swapping out the characters with SatAM ones and wondering what a western developed Sonic game of that time would have been like had Sega not put the squeeze on their American team. It's still sad that the messy tale of Sonic X-treme is how it all came to an end.
At the end of the day, though, it's cool that we even have this video at all. I wonder how long until some enterprising Sonic fan makes an attempt at recreating it? 🙂

A STOURPORT-based organisation has received a £5,000 grant to fund a project to train volunteer mentors and staff in supporting children and young people bereaved by traumatic bereavement, such as suicide of a parent or family member.
The Santander Foundation grant to Mentor Link was provided from the foundation's Community Plus initiative, which provides grants of up to £5,000 for projects that help disadvantaged people in local communities.
The grant will provide specialist training to the volunteer mentors and staff on the impact of traumatic bereavement on children and young people, provide peer support for the children and supervision for the mentors.
Andrea Maddocks, chief executive of Mentor Link, said: "This is wonderful news for the charity as, sadly, we have seen an increase in the number of referrals for traumatic bereavement.
"The charity is dedicated to providing the best possible service to children and young people and we see this grant as helping us to do so.
"If anyone would like to contact Mentor Link about this new service or make referrals please contact our head office on 01299 822336 or firstname.lastname@example.com."
Jamie Hughes of Santander's Kidderminster branch said: "Community Plus allows our staff and customers to nominate local charities that are most in need of assistance. We are delighted to be supporting Mentor Link and hope the donation makes a real difference to local people."
The Community Plus fund provides grants of up to £5,000 to small, local charities with funding available to cover salaries, equipment or materials.
Mentor Link provides weekly one-to-one support to children and young people across Worcestershire by providing them with a volunteer mentor.
The aim of the mentoring is to provide an informal listening ear and improve confidence, relationships, emotional resilience and engagement.
Formed in 2002 the charity now mentors around 350 young people each week across Worcestershire.

Women are more likely to receive Social Security benefits, live longer after retiring, have less money and rely more heavily on the government retirement insurance program, according to federal and private data.
Some groups representing women and minorities say individual investment accounts would transform Social Security and its guarantee of lifetime benefits into a risky investment plan.
"Privatization is about taking benefits away from women," said Heidi Hartmann, president of the Institute for Women's Policy Research. "I'm disgusted that this is not talked about more. I guess it's because President Bush is setting the agenda and he doesn't want to talk about how women and men use Social Security."
Others say Bush's plan would be no more risky for women than the current system.
"Women are smart enough to decide for themselves whether they want a personal account," said Leanne Abdnor, executive director of Women for a Social Security Choice and a member of the bipartisan panel Bush assembled in 2001 to propose solutions to Social Security' s looming financial problems.
"The existing system is a risk because the country is dependent on elected officials to decide their level of benefit," Abdnor said.
Social Security is the only source of income for one of every four women 65 or older, according to the Institute for Women's Policy Research.
Women also depend 10 times more heavily than men on the parts of Social Security that pay benefits to widows and widowers and to the spouses and children of disabled workers. Bush's plan is silent on how those benefits would fare under his proposal.
That's a particular concern for black women, who are disproportionately single and in poor health and are twice as likely as white women to receive disability benefits.
Maya Rockeymoore, vice president of research for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, said individual accounts "represent a threat of deep poverty because they reduce the 'guaranteed' aspect of Social Security."
Opponents of Bush's plan also note that women typically earn less than men, which makes many women reluctant to support any changes to Social Security. Currently, workers who earn lower wages get a larger percentage of their income back after they retire than do higher-income workers. Social Security benefits also include a cost-of-living adjustment.
Income from personal investment accounts would not favor lower-income beneficiaries, aren't guaranteed to last a lifetime and don't offer a cost-of-living adjustment.
"I want Social Security to be there for younger workers when the stock market goes up and down," said Bettye Ashwood of Muskogee, who receives a $2,000 monthly Social Security check.
"I don't think private accounts are a very good idea," said Ashwood, 75, a widow who worked for 35 years for the telephone company.
Martha Moydell, 66, a retired nurse from Fort Gibson, receives a $1,200 monthly Social Security check. She also said individual investment accounts are too risky.
"Somebody is going to lose under this plan, and it's usually the middle class or somebody who really needs the benefit," Moydell said. "I know, because I've lost money in the stock market."
But Kit Stuart of Muskogee, a senior who declined to reveal her exact age, disagreed. She supports Bush's plan.
"I think it's a good idea because Social Security is not going to be sustainable under the current program," said Stuart, who receives about $450 in Social Security benefits. "If I were young, I'd invest in private accounts because I think they would do better (than the current system)."
Bush's plan would affect only workers who are age 54 and younger. Current retirees wouldn't be affected by the accounts, but their opinions have helped shape the debate over the proposal.
Some younger women, including Sandra Jones, 27, of Des Moines, believe that creating personal accounts would be less risky than doing nothing to change Social Security.
"I'm not afraid of the small risks," said Jones, a state lobbyist. "My generation is going to get the short end of the stick unless we do something. It really frustrates me when I hear politicians say that 70% of the benefits will still be there in 40 years if we don't do anything. Are you kidding me? Seventy percent is not good enough."
Bush would let younger workers invest up to 4% of their first $90,000 of income in personal accounts consisting of a limited array of stocks and bonds. When those workers retire, their Social Security benefits would be reduced by an amount roughly based on money accrued in the personal accounts.
Alma Morales Riojas, president of MANA, A National Latina Organization, said private accounts probably wouldn't benefit Hispanic women, the poorest of all workers, because they don't earn enough to set aside money for investments. In addition, Riojas said, many Latinos don't trust financial institutions.
Riojas said Latino women also live longer than white or black women, according to 2002 census data. As a result, Latino women depend on Social Security to a greater extent for retirement income. Without it, 61% of Latino women age 65 and over would be living at or below the federal poverty level.
"Social Security is not just a safety net for us but a matter of survival," she said.
The details about how Bush's proposal would handle a minimum retirement benefit if stocks plummet aren't clear. He also hasn't said how his strategy would deal with disability benefits.
That's exactly why Cathie Holt, 44, of Warner Robins, Ga., opposes the president's plan. Holt was earning a six-figure salary in pharmaceutical sales before a 2001 car accident left her with multiple disabilities. She now gets $1,500 a month for herself and $800 a month for her 6-year-old daughter in Social Security disability benefits.
"I don't want to be the generation that is the guinea pig for privatization," said Holt. "I have dreams for my child and I know that college is still a possibility for her because of Social Security."

MILLERSBURG -- When passions meet, good things happen.
Take the passion the late Sterling Humrichouser shared for the Holmes County Fair, and the passion Holmes County Fair board President Kerry Taylor has for the new fairgrounds and the relocation project has a promising future.
Humrichouser left a sizable portion of his estate to the Holmes County Fair, so it may build the livestock barn with what project consultant Matt Hughes called "divine intervention."
"Kerry Taylor is very passionate about this project, and Sterling Humrichouser was also very passionate. When you match passions, good things happen," Hughes said. "This situation with the donation from Humrichouser was like divine intervention. There is nothing like when you are planning on relocating, and you think about putting people in a building that is unfunded, and have the funding fall out of the sky."
In his youth, Humrichouser showed livestock at the Holmes County Fair as a 4-H member. He was never married. He inherited a 220-acre farm on Township Road 223, west of Holmesville, from his parents. Humrichouser worked at DataCard in Holmesville until it closed, and then went to work for the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, working on the farm there for more than 20 years.
He was stricken with colon cancer and put up a battle for two years that ended in March. He was being cared for by family and friends at his residence.
"He wanted to give back to the community, and one day last fall, he and his cousin were driving around and they drove into the new fairgrounds. They drove into the grounds and saw the Baker building, and being someone who worked in agriculture his whole life, he was really taken by the restored barn," Taylor said. "He looked at his cousin and said, 'this is where I want to put the bulk of my estate.'
"When I went to that meeting with them, all of the legal paperwork had been done, that was going to grant the Holmes County Fairgrounds a share of his estate," Taylor added. "Once the estate is settled, it is going to be a significant sum of money, potentially in the half-million dollar range."
It is a very heartwarming story, whether you are a supporter of the new fairgrounds or not.
"Those of us involved from the fair feel the need for this story to be told," Taylor said. "It has done so many things ... just knowing now that we are going to receive this generous gift has invigorated the project. This has been a marathon project to raise money. It is big. The ability to fundraise is still going on, but it has slowed over time.
"We're now over $5 million in contributions, grants and in-kind toward the project and we're nearly to the top of where we need to be to get the fair moved by 2016. With this donation, our need for additional funds was nearly cut in half in order to have a real solid foundation of a new fairgrounds and a community events center for year-round activity," he added.
"The one, big unfunded item that we had that was beginning to be a concern was our large animal barn. The planning committees had made the decision, unlike traditional fairgrounds, where you have multiple small livestock buildings each representing a species, we wanted to have one or two large buildings that would house all the animals.
"It makes economic sense to do that today," Taylor continued. "For long-term maintenance, it makes sense. Utility-wise, it makes sense. And it makes the grounds much more flexible, offering a large building for livestock events outside of the fair. For example, a larger dairy cattle show. But this building was unfunded, and the idea of putting all the livestock in tents in 2016 was not very appealing.
"So, when I met with Sterling, and not having an expectation of what kind of gift we were going to get, I was shocked when that potential number was revealed to me," Taylor said. "It clicked immediately that what we were talking about pretty much equaled the cost of the large animal arena. I asked Sterling how he would feel about the livestock barn being named after him, and he said he wanted his parents name on the building as well."
The building will be called the Tom, Eva and Sterling Humrichouser Livestock Barn.
"It was a very pointed moment, one that I will never forget in my lifetime, when we had that conversation," Taylor said. "It turns out that the fair board is extremely glad that we were able to meet with him personally, and thank him prior to his death, and let him know how much we appreciated the legacy gift he was about to give to us."
Taylor met with Humrichouser in February, and his health was failing.
"By Saturday afternoon, I brought a framed picture of the planned building, and I was able to present him this picture on behalf of the fair board," Taylor said. "When I made the presentation, he looked up at his cousin, and asked if they could find a spot on the wall to hang it. That right there, totally reaffirmed, validated what we were doing to try and recognize him in advance of his death."
He died a few days later on March 13.
"Sterling knew, along with his cousin, that they could fill a huge hole on what Kerry and the fair board had been doing," Hughes said.

Ray-Ban was founded in 1937 by Bausch & Lomb after lieutenant John MacCready asked them to make a pair of sunglasses that would not only protect his eyes from the damaging effects of the sun but also look good. Today, they are the world's best selling sunglasses.
Pilots in the United States Air Force began to wear the sunglasses and when General Douglas strode on to a beach in the Philippines in World War II wearing Ray-Ban, the sunglasses became a massive hit back home in the USA. Since then, Ray-Ban Sunglasses have been worn in hundreds of Hollywood films and remains a favorite among celebrities.
With great styling, comfort, quality and a clean cut design, Ray-Ban sunglasses are one of the most popular sunglasses on the globe. High-quality materials are one of the more prominent features of their eye-wear.
Classic Ray-Ban – the Wayfarer and the Avaitor
The two most imitated sunglasses in the globe are Ray-Bans – the Aviator and Wayfarer.
The name of the Aviator sunglasses arose because of the oblique teardrop shape of the lens. Naval aviators found that the oversized sunglasses would help to hide the white skin under their eyes caused by wearing goggles during flying. The bar across the nose also held a cigarette in place.
Aviators sunglasses are designed to cover the entire eye and to stop sunlight reaching the eyes from the side of the glasses.
In 1952, sunglass designer Raymond Stegeman invented the Wayfarer for Baush and Lomb. The first pair of eyewear to use plastic, it was a radical new look.
Like the Avaitors, the Wayfarer was originally marketed to be used by pilots. But as female celebrities such as Kim Novak and Marilyn Munroe began to photographed wearing the new eyewear, the glasses quickly became popular among women. Audrey Hepburn wore a pair in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's", furthering the sunglasses popularity.

A's stopped by Royals, rainApr 11, 2012 - 7:34 AM
A delay of 40-plus minutes preceded the start of the game, and the rain continued to fall throughout the night. The game was called with two outs in the top of the eighth inning when the conditions become more adverse.
Duffy (1-0), a California native, walked four and struck out eight.
The rain didn't dampen Duffy's spirits.
"I had a great time out there. I couldn't help but smile a couple times. [It was] a lot of fun," said Duffy, who had family and friends in attendance.
Aaron Crow tossed a 1-2-3 seventh and picked up his first career save.
Billy Butler and Jeff Francoeur each had two hits and scored a run for the Royals, who were shut out 1-0 in Monday's series-opener.
Graham Godfrey (0-1) allowed two runs on six hits in six frames for the A's.
"I thought [Godfrey] did fine," said Oakland manager Bob Melvin. "We just couldn't get it going offensively."
Cliff Pennington had the lone Oakland hit, a one-out double in the third.
The Royals pushed two runs across in the fourth inning. Mike Moustakas doubled home Butler, and Francoeur, who followed Butler's leadoff double with a single, scored on a Humberto Quintero sacrifice fly.
Oakland's Jerry Blevins surrendered a home run to Mitch Maier to lead off the seventh.
Game Notes
The Royals ended a string of 25 scoreless innings against the A's...Kansas City center fielder Lorenzo Cain left the game after the third with a groin injury...The A's announced Tuesday that pitcher Joey Devine will miss the entire 2012 season after having Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. He had the same procedure performed on his pitching elbow in April 2009.

Lawrence B. Marcus
BiographyBeaver, Utah, USA
Born in Beaver, Utah, during World War I, it was not until the next World War that Lawrence Marcus found his niche as a writer. Serving in the Army Air Force, he found that he had a knack for writing and began scripting radio shows. The irony of discovering himself applying skills that are usually honed and developed only after one receives the traditional high school diploma and a degree or two from a reputable university, of course, lay in the fact that while growing up in Chicago, Marcus had gone only as far as the eighth grade in school. Read more... fifty-year writing career, he also found that he had a knack for award-winning scripts. He received an Academy Award nomination for his work on the 1980 "Stunt Man." His writing also garnered the Writers Guild of America Award, the Golden Globe, a Christopher Award, and an Alfred Sloan Award. One of his best remembered works is his 1968 adaptation for Richard Lester of the John Hasse novel "Me and the Arch Kook Petulia." "Petulia," the title of the resulting movie, starred George C. Scott and Julie Christie and is consider by many one of the ten best movies of the decade. Interestingly, Marcus attempted to bow out of working on the script. He became frustrated and disappointed with his efforts and, after the first thirty-five pages, sent what he had to Richard Lester with a letter of resignation. Lester immediately wired Marcus: "Love the pages; hated the letter, work." He also experienced disappointments in his writing when he collaborated on a screenplay with Jim Morrison of The Doors fame. But this time, unlike the reaction Richard Lester supplied, Morrison destroyed the script and the project. Throughout his career he collaborated with Douglas Fairbanks III, Rosalind Russell, lived in Rome, where he developed feature films, traveled to South Africa for a story on diamond mining. His final project was work on a early 1990s project for Universal Studios and Paul Newman, tentatively entitled "Homesman." In the 1980s, helping others achieve heights (i.e. degrees) that had eluded him, he taught screenwriting at New York University. Not bad for a man with only an eighth grade education.

Right now, it is appallingly easy to cause qemu disk snapshots to alter a domain then fail; for example, by requesting a two-disk snapshot where the second disk name resides on read-only storage. In this failure scenario, libvirt reports failure, but modifies the live domain XML in-place to record that the first disk snapshot was taken; and places a difficult burden on the management app to grab the XML and reparse it to see which disks, if any, were altered by the partial snapshot. This patch adds a new flag where implementations can request that the hypervisor make snapshots atomically; either no changes to XML occur, or all disks were altered as a group. If you request the flag, you either get outright failure up front, or you take advantage of hypervisor abilities to make an atomic snapshot. Of course, drivers should prefer the atomic means even without the flag explicitly requested. There's no way to make snapshots 100% bulletproof - even if the hypervisor does it perfectly atomic, we could run out of memory during the followup tasks of updating our in-memory XML, and report a failure. However, these sorts of catastrophic failures are rare and unlikely, and it is still nicer to know that either all snapshots happened or none of them, as that is an easier state to recover from. * include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_ATOMIC): New flag. * src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Document it. * tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotCreate, cmdSnapshotCreateAs): Expose it. * tools/virsh.pod (snapshot-create, snapshot-create-as): Document it. ---
(sometimes it's not that rare (but then you've also got some other problems) :D)+ * that it is still possible to fail after disks have changed, but only + * in the much rarer cases of running out of memory or disk space).
