Tuesday This 'n That
***Enough of that. It's too infuriating. Watch this, and remember that this land was founded by men longing for liberty and freedom. May God guide us out of the wilderness we are now in.
***Here's a great web site for entrepreneurs. Both my husband and I have small businesses, and are always looking for ways to expand and improve them. If you have a small business, or are thinking about starting one, there are certainly going to be challenges ahead when you look at what they're doing in Washington. Owning a business, though, is very rewarding if it's done right. You'll just have to stay on your toes!
***Here's a great motivational/inspirational site. There's some good stuff on here.
***Well, better get busy. Hope you all have a terrific day!
Monday, June 29, 2009
Here We Go Again!
***After we get back from our vacation in South Carolina, we'll be going to the Indiana State Fair on Friday for the Band Day finals. We do that every year. Go Centerville!
***Well, this is gonna have to be short today. Lots of work to do before I leave for work! Is it just me, or is there something wrong with that...?

Sunday Surfin'
***We're staying here on vacation this year! My daughter and her new husband are now in South Carolina, so for the first time in many years we're going to take a vacation in August to go see them. I've never seen the ocean, and I can't wait! We miss them terribly...August can't get here soon enough!
***Have you tried McDonald's McCafe coffees yet? I've gotten the mocha a couple of times...since I've had bariatric surgery I have to watch the sugar, but there's not enough in them to make me sick, apparently. They're a little strong, but if I get one on the way to work I add a little milk to it and it's okay. Not as good as a Bear Creek Coffee sugar free mocha latte...but passable!
***Well, better get some work done and then get ready for church. We're having our family reunion this afternoon, so it's gonna be a busy Sunday!
God bless y'all, have a great day!

Weekend Roundup
**We are so screwed.
**After that above story, it's a bit hard to be upbeat. Our politicians, our so-called "leaders," have sold us out for political gain. They didn't even read it. A huge boondoggle of a bill, and they all know it, and they passed it without reading it. They should all be thrown out, including/ESPECIALLY the RINOs who voted for this outrage. Here are their names. Write to them.
**Sigh...what a disappointing way to start the day. Time to go to my favorite verse:
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." -- Romans 8:28
**Another verse in Romans...my favorite Book, if you haven't guessed!
"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." -- Romans 8:18
Friday, June 26, 2009
***Here's a great site if you like grilling out, which my family loves. I've grilled shrimp before, and basted them with garlic butter. I did learn one thing...you really have to soak those wooden skewers first...I didn't, and the little suckers caught on fire!
***Finally, for all of your shipping needs, ZIP codes, Priority Mail and Express Mail boxes and supplies, check out USPS.com. It's a very user friendly site.
Michael Jackson, RIP
Before he went bonkers, he was a great entertainer. I've always liked his music, especially when he was at his biggest, during the 80s. Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller, etc. And the dude could *dance*. My thoughts & prayers go out to his family, especially his children. R.I.P., Michael.
Addendum: I had the radio on here at work to a station who was playing Jackson's music. I listened for a while because I do like his music. However, they were having people call in with their "Michael moments." It was okay for a while, but geez, it's starting to border on idolatry. I'm going back to my CDs now...

Thoughts Hither and Yon...
--Rush Limbaugh
Amen to that.
**What a shame, what an idiot. Mark Sanford had so much promise. Now he's ruined. I'm sorry for the loss to the Republican party, but I'm most sorry for his family. Jerk.
ARGH! I had several more entries to this post, and most of them just disappeared. Hopefully I'll have time to come back and add a little more later!

It's Dangerous To Be Clueless!
Remember this: "The essence to a government health care system--for people who have never lived under it and don't know--is waiting, waiting, waiting. You wait for everything. You wait for years for operations that are routine in America." -- Mark Steyn
**I'm going to be taking a medical coding course...I've been transcribing for 30 years, but with the advent of EMR I'm having to make myself a little more marketable. The more I know, the more I'm worth. It is supposed to take a year, but the man who interviewed me for Kaplan University (an online course) said it can be done in six months. That's exactly what I plan to do! I figure I can whine about losing some of my transcription to EMR, or I can be proactive and make sure my income level stays at least the same by learning something new.
**If you have one of these in your area, definitely check it out! They have the most delicious sugar free mocha lattes ever! I have to admit, I prefer their coffee to Starbucks.
**Bicycling has become my new favorite activity. It's such good exercise, and so pleasant on a nice day. Here is a great magazine dedicated to bicycling.
**If you haven't done it yet today...give your kids a hug!
Tuesday, June 23, 2009
Finding Good News
**Speaking of good news, you can read about the best news of all here and here. Being a sinner saved by grace pretty much usurps all the bad stuff out there!
**Sean Hannity does Freedom Concerts all over the United States to show support for our troops and America. Here is a list of venues this summer. I'm going to the one in Cincinnati and I can't wait! If only the main music wasn't country...but oh well. Looks like Michael W. Smith will be there too, and I just love his music!
**This is really an amazing phenomenon. Obama's ardent supporters really do seem to see him as the Messiah. How else to explain the utter blindness to his many blunders and completely socialist policies?
**Enough of that, it's depressing. Here are some stories of everyday heroes, people who put the needs of others above their own and put actions to their words. God bless them.
**Finally, watch this for some goosebumps. It's the US Army Chorus performing the Battle Hymn of the Republic. Wow.
Monday, June 22, 2009
RIP, Neda
Here's a web site ran by veterans where you can get some great T-shirts and other gear to show your support for our troops.
We took my husband here for Father's Day. It was awesome! Their food is fantastic, and the view of the lake is absolutely beautiful. If you're thinking about visiting Brookville Reservoir this summer, definitely make Ainsley's Cafe one of your stops.
I rarely watch TV, but I love to watch reruns of Home Improvement. I think Tim Allen is hilarious and it was a good, wholesome show at a time when it seems that bathroom humor is the order of the day on TV.
Countdown to July 17! That's when Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will be in theaters. There is rarely anything in theaters that I'm interested in seeing, but this one I want to see! I really like the Harry Potter movies.
Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

Happy Father's Day
"Theo, that's the dumbest thing I ever heard in my life. No wonder you get D's in everything. Now you're afraid to try, because you're afraid your brain is going to explode, and it's going to ooze out of your ear. Now, I'm telling you that you're going to try as hard as you can, and you are going to do it because I said so. I am your father! I brought you into this world and I'll take you out!"
Yep, we all need a kick in the butt from Dad every now and then. My Dad certainly knew how to do that! He passed away three years ago, and I really miss him. He wasn't big on showing emotion or affection, but we always knew he loved us. We never had to wonder if he was coming home, if he was going to continue to work and provide for us, if he and Mom were going to stay together, none of that. He was dependable and hard-working. Thanks, Dad!
**Here's a great article from Dr. Dobson's website on why fathers matter.
**This is just disgusting. Oh, to have adults in the White House again. Skateboarding in the halls of the White House? Where is the respect? Reminds me of when the Clintons took residence and had people jumping up and down on the bed in the Lincoln bedroom. He "sold" it to his biggest campaign donors. How quickly people forget. This is what you get when you elect liberals.
**Bet you haven't heard about this! Chubby people live longer than skinny people? Of course, they mean "slightly" chubby, but still. Not something you expect a headline to say, huh?
Here's a spot-on quote from Ayn Rand:
"Every government interference in the economy consists of giving an unearned benefit, extorted by force, to some men at the expense of others."
Have a terrific Sunday and Father's Day, everyone!
Saturday, June 20, 2009
**How I wish our president could bring himself to stand up for freedom and liberty! His mealy-mouthed, tepid non-responses to the goings-on in North Korea and Iran are embarrassing. Man up, Mr. President!
**Victor Davis Hansen is one of the most brilliant minds in journalism today. Check out his latest essay over at National Review Online.
**This is absolutely amazing! It's a Slovenian choir doing the song "Africa." Awesome! Here's their website.

And Miles To Go Before I Sleep...
Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
**Yep, it's gonna be a while before I sleep. Found a neat website for literature hounds, it's called The Literature Network. You can search for authors, specific works, etc. Pretty neat when you can only remember a phrase from a certain poem or book, it'll find it for you.
**Just want to direct you to another of my favorite websites, The Heritage Foundation. They have brilliant writers and great information that you certainly won't find in the mainstream media.
**"You know, most people, when they read 1984, were scared. When Barack Obama read it, he started taking notes." -- Rush Limbaugh
**Here's a great web site if you're interested in dispensational theology. Check it out.
**I'm pretty sure I know the reason for my insomnia tonight. I have applied for the early retirement offer from the Post Office, and today is the last day I can withdraw it. After today, I can't change my mind. I can make a lot more money in my transcription business, but EMR (Electronic Medical Records) has already cut in on a little of my business, and the way it's being pushed to doctors, I'm really not sure what the next couple of years is going to bring. Most of my clients are already on EMR and just don't use the letter generator feature because it's too cut and dried, but who's to say they won't start? Now they just scan my letters into the electronic system, something I certainly hope they will continue to do. However, I plan to be proactive about this. Apparently there is a need for people to help hospitals and doctors' offices transition to EMR, so I'm going to look into that just in case. Wish me luck!

Let The Sun Shine In...
I'm about to fix some coffee, or perhaps just have some Click, which is a protein/mocha/espresso drink with vitamins that tastes *really* good! It's great for bariatric patients like me who need extra protein. If you're looking for an energy drink that's coffee based, try it! The directions say to make it with water, but I make it with 1% milk in order to boost the protein count...and I love the way it tastes, like a mocha latte.
Oh no, ABC's not biased at all...
"However beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results."
--Sir Winston Churchill

What Day Off??!!
**I was looking at my son's Eagle Scout picture just now. Boy Scouts is an awesome organization, I highly recommend it to any parent who has sons. The lessons my son learned in that organization reflect our own values, and that was very important to us. He achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in 2007, and we've never been prouder of any accomplishment of his.
**Here's another great parenting tool that we used a lot when the kids were younger. It's Plugged In Online, at Dr. James Dobson's web site. You can look up movies that your kids want to see and get the scoop on what's in them and if they're fit for them to watch. You'll find that there is precious little that Hollywood is offering that isn't junk...but there are some good things once in a while.
**Okay, does anybody seriously still doubt that Barack Obama is a socialist? Check this out.
**Well, the sun is trying to shine here in Indiana, so I had better take advantage of the break between rain showers and hit the road on my bike. I try to exercise every day, either walking or biking. I don't always succeed, but I do get in some exercise at least five days a week. I figure that'll do!

She Works Hard For The Money...
**Since we're reminiscing, one of my favorite groups in junior high and high school was Creedence Clearwater Revival. They had a really unique sound.
**I'm so glad warm weather has returned to Indiana! Cookouts, bike riding, walks, cornhole, I love it!
**Another thing I love about summer is High School Marching Band competition season. I got involved with that when my daughter was a member of the color guard during summer band season at Centerville High School. Those kids work their butts off and put on some amazing shows. Centerville has a proud history, they have won the small band competition at Indiana State Fair Band Day 9 out of the last 10 years. They really are amazing. Check out statefairbandday.com for more information.
**Another favorite summer activity? Kings Island amusement park in Ohio! I've lost a bunch of weight and will now be able to ride more of the rides, I can't wait! I'm not one for the monster coasters, but I absolutely love the water rides. I also like to SHOP! They have some pretty amazing shows there, too. It's a bit pricey, but hey, it's summertime! Gotta do some of this stuff.
**I'll close with a great quote from a great man: "Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first."
--Ronald Reagan

Yo Monday!!
**I've been in an Irish music mood today. Check out this CD for some awesome Irish music. My daughter danced competitively with a traditional Irish step dancing studio (a bit different than the Riverdance dancing as it is much more technical) and I grew to love the music. I listen to it now in my Ipod and in my car on a regular basis.
**Okay, I admit it. I'm a big Harry Potter fan. Well, the movies anyway. I haven't read the books. I can't wait for the next movie, which comes out July 15. The next one is "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince." Here's the trailer, if you're interested.
**What are you reading right now? I'm working on the classics which I should have read long ago. Right now I'm reading "Les Miserables," the unabridged version. Sheesh. It's bigger than Atlas Shrugged, which I have read and absolutely loved. I don't like Ayn Rand's sniveling disdain for Christianity, but she sure knew what she was talking about when it came to capitalism and individual liberty.
Well, that's it for now. Hope you're all having a wonderful Monday!

Sunday Morning
**Soooo...thoughts for today. My son (20 years old, just finished his sophomore year at Wright State) is taking off to a big skate park in Indianapolis today. I love to watch him do that, he's really good at it! He has some good friends here in Richmond that he runs around with. Glad they're gonna have a nice day for their outing.
**I was just reading the Drudge Report...looks like the little dictator in Iran has pulled it off big time. Wow, bet THAT was a fair election...
**I would feel much better about the world situation if we had something other than a clueless, self-absorbed neophyte as our president.
**Wanna check out one of the best guitar players you'll ever hear? Go to http://www.ericloy.com. This guy is awesome.
**I'll leave you with this quote from Ayn Rand: "Every government interference in the economy consists of giving an unearned benefit, extorted by force, to some men at the expense of others."

Maiden Voyage
**The most recent thing to happen in my life is my daughter's marriage. Emily married a wonderful man named Peter on May 23rd. The downside is they moved to South Carolina as Emily will be starting an internship with Charleston Magazine (she just graduated from Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, majoring in English). Since we're in Richmond, Indiana...that is WAY too far away! Hard to let her go, but they are so happy I wouldn't change a thing.
**I had the Roux-en-Y bypass on May 29, 2008 and have lost 139 lbs. since then. I feel *wonderful*. I didn't realize how limited I was when I was morbidly obese until I started getting rid of it. Thank you, Dr. Samer Mattar! I'd like to lose another 40-50 lbs., but even if I never lost another pound I'd have the surgery again in a heartbeat.
**I love the military and I'm grateful every day for their sacrifice for our freedom. I believe the current administration is the greatest threat to American freedom ever, unfortunately. Hopefully we can survive the Obama administration without too much damage...though what he has inflicted in only five months is pretty daunting.
**My favorite web sites? http://www.rushlimbaugh.com, http://www.michellemalkin.com, http://www.obesityhelp.com, http://www.nationalreview.com, and of course, http://www.hardstarboardblog.com. Well, that should tell you where I'm coming from.
**I just got a new mountain bike and I love the thing! Think I'll go take a spin when I get finished here.
**I'm an entrepreneur, I have a medical transcription business which I run out of my home. The name of my company is Meditran Transcription Service. Hmmm...maybe I should start a blog for that...
**Okay, enough for the first day. See ya tomorrow!

Halcyon by Pierre Herbart illustrated by John Harrison
Halcyon by Pierre Herbart, translated by Agnes Mackay and illustrated by John Harrison. Published by John Lehmann in 1948. Not a very valuable book but you can nearly always rely on John Lehmann for quality. I didn't buy this in the end, but now that I look back at the quick snaps I took of the illustrations I begin to wish I had. So apologies for the phone-quality photographs... another one that got away...

Hyundai are aiming high with the stylish Tucson, a sharp-suited family Crossover aimed at the Nissan Qashqai. The experts at Car & Driving check it out....
Ten Second Review
Until the arrival of this Tucson model, Hyundai's idea of a Qashqai-style family Crossover model was encapsulated by its ix35. That car sold quite well but somehow, never quite captured the imagination of the buying public. The Tucson though, is a leaner, meaner-looking contender that might well catapult the Korean brand into credible contention in this important growing segment.
Back in 2004, Hyundai launched what should have been a ground-breaking model. Three years before Nissan's Qashqai launched the buoyant market for family-sized Crossovers, the Tucson could have been that car. As it was, the Tucson was marketed as a small SUV, sold poorly and was eventually replaced in 2010 by a model the Korean brand did pitch as a family Crossover, the ix35. Now though, the Tucson name is back, this badge attached to a design that replaces that rather apologetic-looking ix35 and which brings a fresh sense of dynamism to Hyundai's presence in the Crossover sector. It'll need to do that for once you get beyond the lower range models, Tucson pricing is pitched a fair bit above that which applied to that ix35. Still, this is a much more appealing product, offered with and without 4WD and with a wide range of efficient petrol and diesel engines. Let's check it out.
Driving Experience
People have come to expect a lot when it comes to driving Crossover cars. Although they want a lofty perch, they also want to feel like they could be driving a hatchback. The Tucson delivers exactly this blend of virtues, hence its very road-biased suspension setup - and the overwhelming emphasis on two wheel drive models across the range. We'll be driving this car soon but early indications are that all bases are covered when it comes to engines with a good selection of both petrols and diesels. At the lower end of the range, there's a choice of a 132PS 1.6 GDi petrol or a 116PS CRDi 1.7 diesel. Move a little higher and you can upgrade to a turbocharged 1.6 GDi with 177PS. Diesel fans will find a 2.0 CRDi with either 136PS or 185PS. If you want 4WD, then you'll need the turbo petrol or one of the 2.0-litre diesels. That 4WD system is fine for slippery surfaces but don't expect a great deal of mud plugging ability. As usual with Hyundai models, there's the option of varying the feel of the steering feedback, via different modes.
Design and Build
It's in this area that Hyundai has arguably made the biggest step forward. With an imposing hexagonal grille and sleek Santa Fe-style headlights, the Tucson is a good looking Crossover. The wheelarches are pulled backwards which, along with the rising windowline and prominent creases in the flanks, adds some athleticism to the side profile. The overall look may not be as overt as you'd find with some rivals but you could never call it dull and the effect is especially nice with the 19" wheels fitted to Premium models. Climb aboard and the overall fit and finish is a big improvement on the ix35, with a well laid out (if unadventurous) dashboard with a hint of BMW X3 about it. If you find the interior a little dark, then there's the option of a cream lower half to the fascia which does brighten things up significantly. Mechanically, it's all very conventional which is no bad thing but does mean the Tucson can weigh in excess of 1500kg before you've even sat in the driver's seat. With 513-litres of seat up boot space available (or slightly less if you go for 4WD), the Tucson comfortably beats Nissan Qashqai and Renault Kadjar direct rivals. Fold the seats down and this capacity increases to 1503-litres (or 25-litres less for 4WD). Rear seat space is good, although the rear doors are a little on the small side.
Market and Model
The range may start at less than £19,000 but it's very easy to spend an awful lot more. That price gets you entry level S trim with the non-turbo 1.6 petrol engine. Spend another £1,500 or so and you can opt for the 1.7 CRDi diesel. If you want the bigger diesel, then you'll need to look at 'SE Nav' trim at just over £24,000, with a further 4WD option adding nearly £2,000 more. If you want auto transmission or the higher output 185PS diesel and 177PS petrol engines, you'll have to pay for 4WD. All this means it's quite possible to spend well over £30,000 on your Tucson. Still, a rival Nissan Qashqai 4WD model could also top that figure with a few options added, so perhaps we shouldn't be too shocked. Even base 'S' trim comes with kit like a DAB digital radio and Bluetooth connectivity, plus USB and AUX connections, 16" alloy wheels, air conditioning and auto headlights. Next up is the 'SE' grade which adds 17" alloy wheels, rear parking sensors, heated front seats and dual zone climate control, plus the option of an 8" touchscreen sat nav system. Plush 'Premium' trim includes sat nav as standard, plus 19" alloy wheels, leather seats, front parking sensors, auto wipers and heated rear seats. Finally the top 'Premium SE' grade adds a heated wheel, keyless entry, a Smart Parking Assist System on autos, an electric tailgate, LED headlights, an opening panoramic glass roof and ventilated front seats. All models get six airbags, ABS with brake assist, traction and stability control. Plusher models gain a Lane Keep Assist System (LKAS), Rear Cross Traffic Alert Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) and Blind Spot Detection (BSD). The higher the model, the safer you'll be.
Cost of Ownership
The Tucson can't quite match some of its rivals when it comes to running costs. Still, carbon emissions are rated at a reasonable-sounding 119g/km if you opt for the 1.7 diesel. Go for the 2.0 136PS model and this creeps up slightly to 127g/km: add 4WD and you add 12g/km. The 185PS diesel offers a best of 154g/km thanks to standard 4WD, whilst the biggest sinner is the petrol turbo at 177g/km. Opt for the dual clutch gearbox however and this figure actually drops to 175g/km. As with the rest of the range, a 5 year unlimited mileage warranty is included with a 3 or 5 year fixed price servicing deal an option.
So, what do we have? The tough looks of an SUV, the sensible practicality of a 5-seater mini-MPV and the affordability of a family hatchback. These are the facts behind a Tucson model good enough to attract many new buyers to the Hyundai brand. It's nicely built, efficient to run and quite capable in 4WD form of getting everywhere any ordinary family driver might want to go. No, it's not perfect - a class-leading family hatch might offer slightly sharper handling and better all-round visibility - but these aren't deal-breaking issues. More important will be this model's competitive pricing and lengthy warranty. It's a Hyundai of the modern era. And that makes it a very impressive car indeed.

Howdy, folks. Iowa here. You know us: 29th state, 3 million people, 16 million pigs. A great state fair, juicy sweet corn in the summer and, well, let's not talk about winter.
It's that time again.
Unless it's discovered that Michael Jackson and Britney Spears had a love child and named him Scott Peterson, our state's first-in-the-nation presidential caucuses are going to dominate the national agenda for a few days. (Related audio: Handicapping the field)
What's it like to be here?
"It is a wonderful celebration of democracy in a state that understands its heavy responsibility to help pick the leader of the free world," says our governor, Tom Vilsack. "There's no better place in the country to start this process, because Iowans are interested, involved and experienced."
You'd expect him to say that.
For the rest of us, it's hard to describe. It feels like the week before a political Super Bowl. Or, better, like our birthday. Everyone else in the country may go about business as usual, but this is our moment to feel blessed.
It's showtime, and we're the show.
This is the time of year when you can go to the Marriott Hotel in Des Moines and find the 12th Annual National No-Tillage Conference on one floor and CNN's Inside Politics broadcasting on another.
It's the time of year when a couple in Ames can host a party and have both Howard Dean and John Kerry show up.
It's the time of year when a Dean campaign volunteer meets a woman from Iowa Falls who needs a new wheelchair. He calls someone, and the next thing you know, the whole county is trying to raise $5,000 for Mary Sathoff.
Thousands of campaign volunteers have invaded. We've passed out credentials to more than 850 journalists, from as far away as Japan, Australia and Germany.
"This kind of exposure is hard to put a number to," says Greg Edwards, president of the Greater Des Moines Convention and Visitors Bureau. "It's basically free advertising."
Look, America, we hear the grumbling. That we're too white, too small, too old and too cold to have such a loud voice in choosing a president.
The caucuses, we know, are a quadrennial test, not just for presidential candidates but for Iowans, too. Are we worthy to play such an outsized role in choosing the nation's leader?
That's why we look forward to the caucuses. We know that a whole bunch of important people are going to fly here and spend months talking pretty to us. Calling us the heart of America, the breadbasket of the world, and the nation's last bastion of common sense, hard work and decency.
So please forgive us, America, if we feel jilted by Joe Lieberman and Wesley Clark, who turned their backs on us to woo that floozy New Hampshire. Just think of all the wonderful things they, too, could have said about us.
Maybe this tradition of flattery explains why Dean got in trouble last week for suggesting years ago — we are shocked! — that the Iowa caucuses are dominated by special interests. How dare Dean question the purity of Damsel Iowa?
But if we're vain, at least give us credit: Many Iowans take their role very seriously. They host candidates in their homes. They attend forums. They ask pointed questions.
See, America, that's the secret of the Iowa caucuses. We meet the candidates; they meet us. We shake their hands and invite them into our homes. We find out whether they take cream in their coffee and then listen to their 10-point plans for improving education.
We share a few laughs, solve a few of the world's problems. Then, on the morning of Jan. 20, the candidates will abandon us to whisper sweet campaign promises to the voters of New Hampshire, South Carolina and states beyond.

That's the question, whether like it or not Bill Self has to answer. And he thought deciding to play a Box & One in the second half of Monday nights game was a difficult decision…Sorry Bill, it fails in comparison! Reality is, you won the National Championship despite that bonehead call you made for a couple of possessions…Had the ability to change your mind! And thanks to the Memphis Tigers, they delivered you a championship ring on a silver platter!
On Monday, the wrong decision was to switch to a Box & One…So will Self make another wrong decision in figuring out whether or not he wants to leave Fog Allen for Eddie Sutton's court? Now we know it's not all about the money…Sure, and pro wrestling is fake, (or do I mean scripted) either! Before the nets were even cut down in San Antonio T. Boone Pickens sent his personal Orange & Black armor Brinks truck to go sit right outside your picket white fence in Lawerence. So what's KU to do, but the next morning send a Blue & Red armor Brinks truck to the same location, (inside information…T. Boone's truck is way bigger). Huh, look at that…All of a sudden, the KU faithful wants to up the paycheck. Funny how that works…Another school has a current employed coach at another school, willing to pay him Big Bucks, (with no wammies) and it takes another school's action to cause a current school to react. Funny how that all works…Sounds exactly like women who can't make their minds up in relationships, only until out of the blue her Mike Hunt is to be rumored with Muffy McBalls.
Now we all know the story regarding Pickens, who once gave Oklahoma State's athletic department a $165 million donation, (to help his taxes) could probably outbid any single Kansas booster. But with an extensive alumni base and a love of athletics, the Jayhawks are not without financial firepower of their own. But as the song and dance goes, it's not about the money! Because I'm sure he's not at all feeling unappreciated…No, not at all! When this cat just brought a national championship back to Lawrence for the first time in 20 years…When he coaches at a basketball school and somehow makes less money than Mark Magino! What's up with that shit? My guess, The Fatass needs the extra cash to feed his tummy…Only thing I can think of! Yes, Quadruple MM has done a hell of a job turning around one of the worst football programs in the nation, but it's a basketball school! Not only is it a basketball school…It's one of the premier Division I basketball jobs in the country! For some reason however, the upstart football coach gets paid more.
Although I guess Kansas should be happy, to Self it's not about the money "allegedly"…It's more about the facilities. "People may misread this," Self said, "but I just want to make sure that we have the opportunity to continue to compete at the highest level. You do that with facilities, you do that with how you recruit, you do that with multiple things. There are definitely some areas that could be improved -- in large part, facilities." Nobody's misreading it because it is true, the facilities play an important factor in any recruitment of a kid, but come on Bill lets not try to look for excuses now. Look, we all know that everybody likes to go home…Nobody would blame up for doing so, especially when you get to drive a Brinks armor truck to work everyday, (my guess gas is a bitch on that thing) but your're at Kansas for God sakes! How bad could the facilities be? Come on now…It's not like you're at IHOP University, somewhere in Boo-Foo-Idaho. Or perhaps you're just sore about being at a premier basketball school where the upstart football program seems to receive more? Pissed off at those wealthy KU boosters who are already paying for an extensive state-of-the-art football facility set to open this summer, including the Anderson Family Football Complex. I'm willing to bet that the little devil inside of you feels like nothing would feel better than to stick it to the Rock-Chalk-Jayhawk-Nation…Jamming your $1.375 million peanut annual salary up their tailpipes where they should've ponied up in the first place, to return home where you'd be God! Although a word to the wise, Eddie Sutton was a God there too until he started making out with Jim Beem!
If you'd leave, nobody would blame you, write you hate mail, threaten to kill your dogs and burn your house down…Well, outside the state of Kansas that is. However, there'd be good news…You and Rich Rodriguez could collaborate on a book together then. "If they're asked to make contributions, they will make contributions," Monte Johnson, a prominent Kansas booster said. "Our athletic director and chancellor knows the value that Bill has to our program. Bill has created a situation where he needs to be compensated for what he's done for this university, and he's done a lot." Knows the valve, rrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhtttttttttttt! And if OSU still had Sean Sutton, the Lawrence Emergency Meeting with all the big time Jayhawk boosters would've never came to order…Just like pro wrestling is scripted too!
"All Oklahoma State has to offer him is money," "We're going to do our best to make him comfortable in staying. You work out a way to retain great people." said Johnson. Um Monte, glad to see you're not too smart…"Comfortable", huh? Doesn't money make you comfortable? Just a thought I had! And silly me to think this, but in a relationship doesn't one go beyond the call of duty, bend over backwards to make everything work before the fact…Not after! All you guys are doing is grasping for straws now hoping you don't lose another great coach, (please see Larry Brown & Roy Williams)! That's all that this is about…And so with that said, why shouldn't Self fly the coupe? A native of the OK State, with national championship credentials, more money than God, and it looks like more appreciation too! Besides, it's not like OSU is some door mat…They've been to two Final Fours in 13 years!
So Jayhawk fans, you might want to start making up your "Bill Selfish" signs now, thanks in large part to the university not being proactive, but rather reactive. Yes Kansas, you might've won the game, but you penny pinching, nickel & dimming asses could very well lose the war!

Excellent Experience
My experience with Dr. Hines was exceptional. He is comfortable to meet with and careful to keep you informed about what's going on. He is understanding and non-judgmental. It's easy to feel that he has your best interest in mind. He's very knowledgeable, demonstrated by his many degrees with honors and scholarly papers. It's important, since he says abreast of the latest research and practices. Yet, he talked in understandable ways to me. Once treated, he likes to have the patient followed up by phone or with an email. He even sent an email with additional suggestions after leaving the office, in order to ensure that the instructions for the treatment were clear. A subsequent visit was equally excellent. He is concerned about your health and offered to do an inspection for skin cancers as part of the visit. I felt very grateful to be treated by Dr. Hines and would recommend for any of your dermatology needs.

Coal devolatilisation - two competing reactions
Dear all,
I am looking for advice in describing devolatilisation of coal in CFX using two competing reactions. I have been told that the reactions need to be specified in a CEL code. Does anyone have a code example that shows how to set this up? Any other hints regarding this?
Best regards,
I have defined two reactions - Devolatilization RC1 and Devolatilization RC2 - and included them in the Multiphase Reactions List. I get the following message by the solver when running the simulation:
Parallel run: Received message from slave
Slave partition : 8
Slave routine : SU_REAC_HCFUEL
Master location : End of Continuity Loop
Message label : 002100073
Message follows below - :
| ****** Notice ****** |
| |
| For hydrocarbon fuel proximate/ultimate analysis, multiple |
| reactions of the same type found. Only one of these will be |
| effective for calculation of volatiles reference enthalpy. |
| |
| Particle : HC Fuel |
| Reaction type: devolatilisation |
| Reaction for volatiles heat release calculation: |
| Devolatilization RC2 |
Has anyone seen a similar solver message?
Do you have any recommendations how to setup the simulation correctly in order for both reactions to be used?
|All times are GMT -4. The time now is 08:55.

From legendary football star to the man at the center of the "trial of the century" to prisoner 1027820 at Lovelock Correctional Center in Nevada, O.J. Simpson's life has captivated the nation for decades. Here is a look at some key moments.

Banned From Ultra After $400,000 Brutality Lawsuit, Miami Police Union President Javier Ortiz Fights for Back Pay
Miami police union president Lt. Javier Ortiz (right) and fellow officer Sgt. Edward Lugo were awarded back pay after they were banned from working Ultra following a police brutality incident in 2011.
Photos via George Martinez, Facebook
In 2011, Jesse Campodonico, a 27-year-old fitness trainer from New York, was thrown to the ground and tasered by police at Ultra Music Festival. Campodonico later filed a lawsuit claiming police brutality against the City of Miami and the festival, and Ultra ended up paying $400,000 to settle the case.
Naturally, festival organizers weren't too keen on rehiring the cops involved in that expensive mistake. So in 2014, shortly after settling with Campodonico, Ultra reps emailed the city to request that the two cops who had tasered him — Sgt. Edward Lugo and police union president Lt. Javier Ortiz — be banned from working future editions of the event.
That didn't sit well with the two officers, both of whom filed grievances saying they were being unfairly disciplined. Now both cops are locked in a court battle with the city, asking not only to be allowed to continue working at Ultra, but also for back pay from the past two years they didn't work the EDM fest.
The origins of the dispute trace to 2011's edition of Ultra, when Campodonico and his girlfriend were stopped by a security guard outside the gates because his girlfriend had a glowstick in her hands. Campodonico complained, which is when he says Ortiz, Lugo, and two other cops stepped in — beating him, choking him, and then tasering him three times on the ground.
Campodonico was charged with battery, but the charges were later dropped. Ortiz was eventually cleared of wrongdoing after an internal affairs investigation. (The other two cops involved in Campodonico's beat-down both later left the force amid unrelated corruption cases.)
After Ultra demanded that the two cops stay away from the festival, Lugo, Ortiz, and the city went to arbitration. The city argued that off-duty jobs are a privilege, not a right, while Ortiz's union claimed the city unfairly put a customer's preference over the rights of the officers.
In May, the arbitrator sided with Lugo and Ortiz, awarding them back pay for 2014 and 2015, the two years they were banned from working off-duty assignments at Ultra. Now the city is now fighting that decision, asking a judge to throw out the arbitrator's ruling.
"A police officer has no more entitlement to work for Ultra than a raver does to attend it," the city's attorneys wrote in a court motion filed last month.
Congrats to my best friend, Sgt Edward Lugo pic.twitter.com/PQ7t24L9BM— Miami FOP 20 (@JavierOrtizFOP) October 23, 2015
Gene Gibbons, a Fort Lauderdale attorney who represents the two officers, says the city's attempts to throw out the ruling are "frivolous." He says that neither Lugo nor Ortiz worked Ultra this year because they were working another event but that they should be allowed to work Ultra in future years if they choose to.

"It's not crazy money, but it's money that they would like to earn like everyone else in the police department," he says.
Attorneys for the city did not respond to a request for comment, but their legal filings are terse. According to the city's most recent motion, the ruling presents a "bizarre dilemma" by which the rights of the officers to work off-duty assignments trump the preference of the event organizers and businesses who pay for police services.
"In light of the award, vendors such as Publix and Winn-Dixie are stuck with an off-duty police officer who is rude or offensive to its customers because the officer chooses to be there," city attorneys wrote.
If the court upholds the arbitrator's decision, Lugo and Ortiz would be allowed to work the three-day event next year just as any other eligible officer would. Ultra 2017 is scheduled to take place March 24, 25, and 26 at Bayfront Park.

Six years ago, Lane did some videos for Straight Fraternity; it's been a long time and he's back. But judging by the size of that gun, I think he's over compensating for something. He's kind of funny because when he strips off his clothes his dick isn't hard at all and he says, "Sorry, it's been a while, I'm a little nervous." Relax. We don't expect you to be raging hard the minute your underwear hits the floor.
I love heavily inked guys, so Lane's body gets me revved up. Plus, the fact that he's a redneck and hyper straight is also a little ball tingling. I was never too turned on by the whole straight guy or gay-for-pay thing -- didn't really get it to be honest -- but I'd get on my knees and blow Lane. His cock isn't huge, but it's meaty. I'd even let him hold his gun while I gulped on his dick.
Lane wasn't joking about being nervous because he was having some trouble getting the boner maker in gear, so Franco offered to give Lane a hand. The inked stud just closed his eyes and before you know it, Lane's cock is hard and Franco's hand is covered in jizz.

Thank you for considering adopting a rescue companion! We look forward to helping you on your journey to finding the perfect friend for you and your family. We strive to ensure that each pet is a good match on a variety of lifestyle, energy, temperament, and personality levels.
The street dogs in Houston's Sunnyside neighborhood are in desperate need of help. They live in deplorable conditions fending off starvation and abuse. South Side Street Dogs is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that works exclusively and tirelessly for the street dogs of this area.
SSSD strives to change the attitudes towards animals in the hearts and minds of residents in Sunnyside- working to raise a sense of compassion through education, awareness, and setting an example of humane human to human/human to companion animal coexistence by our presence in the field.
SSSD aims to change lives through action and awareness- not just enriching the lives of the animals, but also of the residents.
SSSD does NOT pull from shelters or accept dogs from the general public.
We only accept STREET DOGS into our program from our feeding routes on the streets of Sunnyside if fosters and funding are available. There is a waiting list of triaged street dogs, prioritised by the dogs in most danger feverishly networked and placed first. Minor injuries and illnesses are vetted in the field and seriously injured dogs are taken off streets and vetted asap.
We do not have a public facility. Our adoptable pets live in volunteers' foster homes, and some even in boarding facilities due to lack of fosters. If you see a companion you feel would would fit in with you and your family, please contact us for an adoption application. You can not visit with one of our dogs until you are approved for adoption.
Additionally, if you feel you would like to open your home to an animal in need as a foster, please apply to foster at: www.southsidestreetdogs.com/applications.html
Fosters are an invaluable resource in the work that we do rescuing these homeless dogs from the streets. It is a very rewarding way for dog lovers to give back to the community!

Try reading the whole chapter in context. Verse six "God spoke to him in this way:'Your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years. But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves,' God said,'and afterward they will come out of that country and worship me in this place.'
Genesis 46:27
With the two sons [ 46:27 Hebrew; Septuagint [ the nine children ] ] who had been born to Joseph in Egypt, the members of Jacob's family, which went to Egypt, were seventy [ 46:27 Hebrew (see also Exodus 1:5 and footnote); Septuagint (see also Acts 7:14) [ seventy-five ] ] in all.
That cave was a tomb that Abraham bought from Ephron the Hittite, son of Hamor. Shechem did not buy the tomb, Shechem is where the tomb was. Verse 16 "Their bodies were brought back to Shechem and placed in a tomb that ABRAHAM HAD BOUGHT from the sons of Hamor at Shechem for a certain sum of money. (Check your references more closely next time.)
There are only 25 verses in Exodus 2. Not 40. There are 40 verses in Exodus 12. (Just another one of the many errors in your sources.) Acts 7:6 says that they will be "enslaved and mistreated" for 400 years.
I don't know what version you are reading, but my Bible says that Numbers 25:9 says this: "but those who died in the plague numbered 24,00". Those verses are talking about completely seperate happenings.
Mount Hor was located in Moserah.
God was telling us not to kill without a reason. For instance, I wouldn't just go kill you because I don't like you. There are times and places for killing, this was one of them. The people were worshipping false Gods, getting drunk, and building idols. Moses gave them a chance to repent and alot of them decided not to. So they were killed, plain and simple.
What don't you understand about the verse "ALL this took 450 years"? You said "to David BEGINNING his reign", yet you added 40 years of David's reign. Okay, why don't I give you a chance to rephrase this one and then we'll talk about it.
He inquired of God but gave up because he didn't feel like waiting for God's answer. He then had a medium (witch) help him talk to the long-dead Samuel. He died because he was "UNFAITHFUL TO THE LORD" and because he did not inquire God honestly and WAIT FOR HIS ANSWER. He had a witch help him instead.
Jesse had "seven of his sons pass before Samuel, but Samuel said to him,'the Lord has not chosen these'. So he asked Jesse, 'Are these all the sons you have?' 'THERE IS STILL THE YOUNGEST,' Jesse answered, 'BUT HE IS TENDING SHEEP'. Jesse SHOWED SAMUEL SEVEN OF HIS SONS. The eighth was David who was busy tending the sheep.

Popular passages
Page 36 - If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time destroy slavery, I do not agree with them. My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery.
Page 375 - Because half a dozen grasshoppers under a fern make the field ring with their importunate chink, whilst thousands of great cattle reposed beneath the shadow of the British oak chew the cud and are silent, pray do not imagine that those who make the noise are the only inhabitants of the field, — that, of course, they are many in number, — or that, after all, they are other than the little, shrivelled, meagre, hopping, though loud and troublesome insects of the hour.
Page 112 - American people, that after four years of failure to restore the Union by the experiment of war, during which, under the pretense of a military necessity or war power higher than the Constitution, the Constitution itself has been disregarded in every part, and public liberty and private right alike trodden down, and the material prosperity of the country essentially impaired — justice. humanity...
Page 78 - And then there will be some black men who can remember that, with silent tongue, and clenched teeth, and steady eye, and well-poised bayonet, they have helped mankind on to this great consummation; while I fear there will be some white ones, unable to forget that, with malignant heart and deceitful speech, they have strove, to hinder it.
Page 102 - If you can find any person, anywhere, professing to have any proposition of Jefferson Davis in writing, for peace, embracing the restoration of the Union and abandonment of slavery, whatever else it embraces, say to him he may come to me with you...
Page 93 - And every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him; and he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.
Page 41 - while I approve the measure, I suggest, sir, that you postpone its issue until you can give it to the country supported by military success, instead of issuing it, as would be the case now, upon the greatest disasters of the war.
Page 144 - And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
Page 66 - Yet, thoroughly imbued with a reverence for the guaranteed rights of individuals, I was slow to adopt the strong measures, which by degrees I have been forced to regard as being within the exceptions of the constitution, and as indispensable to the public safety.
Page 66 - Must I shoot a simple-minded soldier boy who deserts, while I must not touch a hair of a wily agitator who induces him to desert...

69 apprenticeships, work experience or potential job opportunities were pledged at the Big Hospitality Conversation to inspire and educate young people about vibrant careers in hospitality.Industry experts, from across London came together to interact with students and young job seekers looking to get into a career in hospitality, hear their views as well as understand and respond to the challenges they might face with securing employment at the Big Hospitality Conversation held at Skills London - ExCel Centre.
Top businesses including Accor, Marriott Hotel and CH&Co attended the event, pledging live throughout the day alongside Springboard's CareerScope team who were on hand to offer practical employability advice and guidance on gaining relevant qualifications, interview techniques and career choices.
Abby Paterson, Careers and Education Director, Springboard said "Unemployment in London remains high amongst young people and in order to combat it, businesses need to inspire them at an early stage about careers in the great world of hospitality."
"This is why the Big Hospitality Conversation worked with the hospitality industry to help change perceptions of careers as well as create and generate employment opportunities for students and young job seekers to avoid them becoming another statistic on the youth unemployment chart, and we have had great success doing so at Skills London."
The British Hospitality Association' Big Hospitality Conversation in partnership with Springboard has brought together more than 2,000 business to provide a platform to recruit and offer job and apprentice opportunities for young people through the careers event. It also creates a dialogue between industry leaders and job seekers/students.

Awesome render! Lighting and textures are fantastic!
Well done!
I like it. What was your render time?

The Center for Environmental Protection (CEP) is a federal agency seemingly modeled after the real life Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It was featured in three separate Season One episodes:
- In Hug, Bob Rickman met with Paul Hendrix, an agent from the CEP. Paul was concerned about Bob's intentions to build another plant in Smallville because his last plant contaminated the groundwater. Paul had a restraining order against Bob from building any more plants until all the cases against him have been resolved. As Bob went to leave, he shook hands with Paul. Bob used his kryptonite-inspired powers of persuasion to convince Paul that he was in pain and the only way to end his pain was to end his own life. By the time Bob got to the lobby, Paul had jumped out his window.
- In Zero, the CEP is sent out to investigate after some LuthorCorp pesticides spill and kill the entire herd at the Kent Farm. Jude Royce's impersonator pretended to be a CEP employee, and tasered Lex Luthor into a waiting van.
- In Drone, the CEP investigates the attack by a swarm of bees on Student Body President candidate Paul Chan. The CEP determined that the bees that attacked Paul came from several different hives from all over the area.

Writers On Board For Nick Ratchet
Stan Lee project takes shape
Stan Lee's Nick Ratchet has, er, ratcheted up a notch or two with writers Douglas Cook and David Weisberg signing on to pen the script.
The comic-book legend's story is a mystery-thriller about a meek police officer transformed Jekyll and Hyde-style into Nick Ratchet, a tough avatar cop who emerges from a video game to assume control of his creator. Cook and Weisberg co-scripted The Rock so should know a thing or two about mild-mannered law enforcers turning seriously alpha.
As reported last month, Nick Ratchet is one of three projects Lee's set up with Disney via his POW! Entertainment imprint. Like Nick Ratchet, the others, Blaze and Tigress, are based on characters he hints may see the light of day on the page as well as the screen: "You either have a great comic-book and it becomes a great movie, or you have a great movie that becomes a great comic-book," Lee said. "These things have a natural progression."
Richard LaGravenese (P.S. I Love You) is attached to direct, with Larry Jacobson and ex-NYPD officer Sonny Grosso in talks to produce.

Fast, Easy, Cheap: Breakfast Recipes for College
May 2nd, 2008 admin
Usually I just eat cereal & milk for breakfast, but on the weekend-or sometimes even for dinner-it's fun to cook a bigger breakfast. Here are some fast, easy, and-most importantly-INEXPENSIVE breakfasts you can eat any time of day:
French Toast
Cost: less than $1 (for 4 slices)
4 slices of wheat bread
1 large egg
2T milk
Note: You can use a George Foreman grill (or equivalent) by simply propping it up so the grilling surface is horizontal. This works great if you're in the dorms or just in a rush!
Directions: Heat grill or stove top to about 350 degrees F. Whisk egg and milk together in a shallow bowl until they are well blended. If you like extra-eggy French toast, use 2 eggs instead of 1. Dip both sides of each slice of bread in your egg mixture and let the excess drip off. Place bread in heated frying pan/on a Foreman-style grill and cook until golden brown. If you are cooking in a pan, be sure to flip the bread so both sides cook evenly (if you're using the grill, you can just lower the top!). For a little extra flavor, try sprinkling a little cinnamon on one side before grilling.
Yummy Egg Sandwich
Cost: less than $1
1-2 eggs
2 slices wheat bread or 1 English muffin
Butter or margarine
your choice of toppings
Directions: Heat stove top to about 350 degrees. Crack your egg(s) into a frying pan, and break the yolk; add a sprinkling of salt and pepper. "Fry" the eggs by cooking them like a pancake-let them cook until the edges get a little stiff, then flip-just be sure they cook all the way through. (You could also scramble the eggs if you prefer that texture. See how here.). Toast your bread (or English muffin) and butter it. Stack your eggs and toppings between your bread slices, or just eat your egg sandwich without any garnish.
Topping ideas:
grilled zucchini (its surprisingly good!)
WiseBread has four more yummy-but-cheap breakfast ideas here, and I'll be sharing more in the future, so make sure to subscribe so you can keep up. I'd love to hear your own recipes or breakfast faves, too, so please leave a comment!

Nothing better than a george foreman in college. I use to make grilled cheese sandwhiches with an iron. They actually were pretty tasty!
2. Jamie | June 19th, 2008 at 8:58 am
Like that movie Benny & Joon. They looked tasty (the sandwiches, not the people).
3. Desserts Recipes | April 23rd, 2009 at 6:26 am

Consumers with private health insurance are paying more out of pocket when they check into a hospital, and the amount has risen in just the last few years.
A study in the JAMA Internal Medicine says even consumers with a "good" benefits policy could end up paying $1,000 or more in out-of-pocket expenses, an increase of 37%.
Researchers at the University of Michigan Institute for Healthcare Policy looked at the billing records for more than 50 million U.S. consumers over a four year period. All of the subjects had health benefit packages offered by four major companies.
The researchers trace the increase to two changes: both deductibles and co-insurance went up.
Deductibles – what you pay out-of-pocket before the insurance company begins to pay – went up 86%. Co-insurance – the percentage of the hospital stay that patients must pay – rose 33%.
"It shows that even people with the most comprehensive insurance are paying thousands of dollars, at a time when they need hospital care and may not have time to shop around," said first author Emily Adrion.
ACA policies not included
The period under review is 2009 to 2013 and focuses solely on private insurance plans and those offered through employers. It does not include plans offered under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which tend to have even larger deductibles than private health plans.
It suggests that health plans were beginning to shift more costs to the patient even before the ACA went into effect. The percentage of patients paying deductibles and co-insurance went up by more than 5% during the study period.
Co-payments for hospital stays actually went down during the study period – about the only cost to consumers that declined.
There were also pronounced differences in the expenses paid by people with "consumer-directed" health plans, which are usually the least costly on a premium basis, and people who bought individual private plans.
People with consumer-directed plans paid, on average, $1,200 out-of-pocket for a hospital stay. But for people who had purchased individual private plans, the out-of-pocket expense averaged $1,800.
The researchers say the results underscore the importance of reading the fine print when you choose a health care plan, and understanding what your financial obligation will be if you have to check into a hospital.
