People are constantly in motion and are controlled by their emotions .
" I enjoy as a designer to think of beautiful things and, as a professional stylist, to materialize these. It is a great experience to see that my creations are widely appreciated by many different people from all kinds of different cultures. This confirms my idea that the quality of a good design is universal. "
Gerard van den Berg is a researcher and epicurean. The urge for adventure and his curiosity about 'the other' brought him as a young man hitchhiking to all corners of the world. His luggage consisted of a backpack, a keen observation and a creative open mind. During that time he discovered the beauty of simplicity and purity, and his love for natural forms and materials that would characterize his designs many years later.
Another basic experience from his youth is his training as a furniture maker.
"I have learned to execute the craft to technical perfection. Instructed by highly skilled craftsmen, I have learned to tinker with models and all kinds of materials and I tried out all kinds of production techniques. Thus, I know very well how people are sitting and how sitting furniture should be made. My technical knowledge is an essential contribution to my artistic creativity."
Sitting furniture made by Gerard van den Berg in all respects is the result of designing and shaping. Furniture fit for the purpose they are intended for, namely sitting with comfort. That natural combination of creativity and craftsmanship ensures that many of his models are purchased by a global clientele. His models are sold worldwide.
The art of designing according to Gerard van den Berg is continuously thinking very pure. He focuses on a basic concept and avoids the inclination to decorate and complicate .
" I try to grasp the singular, pure form from the first sketch up to and including the final production. In my opinion a concept is not improved if you are constantly adding things. The power is not in the finery but lays in the essence of the keynote. As soon as you need finery there obviously is something missing in the concept itself. "
One of the innovations Gerard van den Berg has encouraged, in post-war furniture design, is the notion of not basically starting from the framework.
" Concerning the frame you are always tied to a particular gauge and this determines your design . If you take the lining as starting point , it usually gives you much more freedom in your options . For example, the hammock gave me the idea that, by smart use of the upholstering, you can create optimum comfort without needing a heavy interior construction. As a result, I was able to make my design nimble and slender yet sturdy and comfortable. At those moments I feel that the combination of creative thinking and knowledge of materials and technology is more than a simple addition."
The furniture by Gerard van den Berg, without exception, suggests tension in design and choice of material. Clear straight lines contrast with a full, flowing seat shape. Hard metal supports soft furnishings such as supple leather. Cool against warm and colourful. Materials rich in character such as personally developed robust leather and pure types of wood highlight the design.
" I do not like to see furniture pieces stuck to the floor. Hence the elegance. The combination with the fuller, more organic shape, for me, is very natural. Consider the appearance of the woman or the racehorse. Without tension and contrast a design does not swing. It takes two to tango . "
Gerard van den Berg has also designed high-profile models for Montis, Molteni, Wittmann and Lensvelt. During his long career, Gerard van den Berg received several prestigious awards, including the Kho Liang Price (1984), the Mobilia Innovation Award (1990), the Price for Interior Architecture (1991) and the prize for the best Dutch Furniture Design (1984 and 1997).

The newly John Idzik managed Jets focus for the 2013 draft is on top talent available after first round selections of cornerback Dee Milliner and defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson. The Jets had the 9th and 13th overall picks and chose not to select offensive players to combat last years bottom three finish in passing yards.
Idzik told the New York Post "We were not going to succumb to temptation. Talent will trump need, especially higher in the draft. You stick to what you believe and if you have players on your board you pick them.''
Alabama's Dee Milliner was elected to first-team All-American and All-SEC teams as a junior standout cornerback after their championship season. Jets fans hope Milliner will fill the freshly vacant cornerback position after the Darrelle Revis trade to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Milliner has all the tools having the experience of playing and winning at college football's current powerhouse along with his ideal size and elite speed with a sub 4.40 40-yard dash.
Rex Ryan spoke about the seeming replacement pick after Revis' departure in saying, "Nobody replaces Revis." He plans to pair Milliner with veteran Antonio Cromartie and added, "We want Cro to be Cro and we want Dee Milliner to be himself. That's it. He's a great football player. All these guys are. They don't have to worry about trying to be compared to Darrelle Revis."
The next selection of Sheldon Richardson out of Missouri surprised fans but again, the Jets valued his talent too high to pass at the opportunity. Richardson is an incredible athlete that has impressed scouts with an exceptional quickness for his large stature as a defensive tackle.
Rex Ryan enthused, "These two guys are going to make an impact for us. We love what they bring to the defense..the kind of mentality that both these young men play with are the same traits that we look for in all of our players, but they certainly play like a Jet."
To fans awaiting that needed offensive improvement Idzik explained, "We're not done. We have two days of work to go. We feel this draft is very deep. Once you get down a little further in the draft, there'll be more offensive players that stack up."
The Jets went on to shock some fans and grab quarterback Geno Smith out of West Virginia in the second round. Smith had previously been projected as high as the top ten but fell to 39th overall. The focus then switched blocking with pick ups of offensive linemen Brian Winters, Oday Aboushi, William Campbell and fullback Tommy Bohanon.

** Click here to see RotoBaller's 2014 fantasy football waiver wire wide receiver pickups and sleepers list for the 2014 fantasy football and NFL season **
Below is RotoBaller.com's Ultimate 2013 Waiver Wire Watch List from the 2013 fantasy football and NFL season.
2013 Waiver Wire Pickups by Position
Leonard Hankerson (WR, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: It seems as though Hankerson has officially surpassed veteran Roddy White on the Atlanta Falcons' depth chart. Ready for this? Since Week 2, Hankerson has been targeted 25 times, while White has received five targets. Yes, five. This has resulted in White totaling two catches for eight yards during that span, while Hankerson has posted 15 catches for 225 yards and two touchdowns. With the Atlanta offense simply exploding over the past two weeks, scoring a combined 87 points, don't expect them to slow down anytime soon. Hankerson simply looks like the newest weapon in the Atlanta offense, and as he and Matt Ryan continue to build their chemistry, things are only going to get better for him. While opposing defenses do their best to lock down Julio Jones, it should lead to the 26-year-old receiver having no problem putting up some solid performances moving forward in 2015. The Falcons take on the Redskins, Saints, Titans and Buccaneers over the next four weeks, all of which have beatable secondaries. Realistically though, the fact that Jones is lined up across from Hankerson is really the main selling point of grabbing him.
Jacoby Jones – WR, Baltimore Ravens
Baller Move: Add in Deep Leagues only (12+ Teams Standard) Analysis: This season Jacoby Jones has been sidelined in large chunks due to injury. This week he finally looked to be getting closer to 100% with his best game of the season (4 catches, 103 yards & 1 TD). The previous two weeks Jones only had 4 targets all together so he makes a poor PPR option to consider. You should continue to monitor Jones to see if his health is back. However, if you are in a deep league Jones might be a waiver option to consider.

Twitter Use at a Family Medicine Conference: Analyzing #STFM13
Ranit Mishori, MD, MHS; Brendan Levy, MD; Benjamin Donvan
Background: The use of social media is expanding in medicine. A few articles sought to describe participant behavior using Twitter at scientific conferences. Family physicians are known as active participants in social media, but their behavior and practices at conferences have not been methodically described.
Methods: We recorded all public tweets at the 2013 Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) Annual Spring Conference bearing the hashtag #STFM13, using commercially available services. We created a transcript of all tweets for the 5 days of the conference and 3 days before and after. We looked at the total number of tweets, number of original tweets and re-tweets, active users, most prolific users, and impressions. We categorized the content based on (1) Session related, (2) Social, (3) Logistics, (4) Ads, and (5) Other. We compared major metrics (but not content) to the 2012 STFM Annual Spring Conference.
Results: There were a total of 1,818 tweets from 181 user accounts: 13% of the conference registrants. The top tweeter accounted for over 15% of the total tweets, and the top 10 accounted for over 50% of the total volume. Most original tweets (69.7%) were related to session content. Social content came in second (14.2%), followed by other, logistics, and advertisement (7.6%, 6.9%, 1.6%).
Conclusions: This preliminary analysis provides an initial snapshot of twitter activity at a family medicine conference. It may suggest avenues for further inquiry: trend identification, "influencer" identification, and qualitative analysis. Interdisciplinary research should focus on evaluation methods that can assess the quality, value, and impact of tweeting.
(Fam Med 2014;46(8):608-14.)
The Society of Teachers of Family Medicine (STFM) Annual Spring Conference is held annually and is a central event in academic family medicine. It offers participants the opportunity to attend educational sessions and engage in formal dialogue, as well as in informal networking and conversation.
Physicians have been urged to become active participants in social media as a form of engagement with the larger health community, patients, and peers1 and as a way to "start an online dialogue" with policy makers and stakeholders.2 Twitter—the microblogging medium—has been hailed as "an essential tool for every physician leader,"3 one that is "crucial to the development of medicine today,"4 and "just what the doctor ordered."5 This rapidly growing social network has approximately 500 million users worldwide, 140 million of them in the United States.6
The use of Twitter has been encouraged at various conferences, including at STFM meetings, by organizers and physician leaders,7 as a means of increasing participant connectivity and engagement while also enhancing message dissemination.
A few articles have previously sought to describe participant behavior using Twitter at various scientific and medical conferences.8-16 For example, researchers conducted a content analysis at a large kidney conference, looking at tweets they designated as "informative" (educating the reader about kidney disease) versus "uninformative" and further applying sentiment analysis to the content.17 Other investigators looked at trends of use in scientific meetings. One study looked at meetings held by anesthesia professional associations in the United Kingdom, and noted a 530% increase in the number of tweets posted in 1 year compared to the previous year's conference.16 A "large growth" in the number of twitter users was also noted at a 2012 hospice and palliative medicine conference,18 but the author noted several barriers to physician use including lack of training and concerns about public online communication. Finally, a large virtual participation—"social" participants as opposed to "physical" participants—was noted at the International Conference on Emergency Medicine (ICEM) 2012.19
As the ICEM 2012 paper noted, increasingly, conference-related dialogue and engagement are taking place not only within the convention hall, but also online, among stakeholders who are not physically present at the conference. Internet tools facilitate in-person interactions while extending the reach of events to those unable to attend and even allowing valuable conversations to persist and grow organically long after the posters are packed. Recent analysis has shown that this is becoming a trend and that at many medical conferences there are now more people participating digitally than are even present on the conference floor.20 In this way, social media can simultaneously offer a reflection of the zeitgeist as well as shape it.
Family physicians are known as active participants in social media,21,22 but their cyber behavior and engagement at family medicine conferences have not yet been documented.
We decided to observe and analyze public tweets coming from the 2013 STFM Annual Spring Conference to see who is talking about the conference and in what ways. This preliminary content analysis may provide an initial snapshot of one aspect of the social media presence of this important family medicine conference for future comparison, trend identification, "influencer" identification, and hypothesis generation.
The STFM Annual Spring Conference took place between May 1 and May 5, 2013 in Baltimore, MD. The hashtag #STFM13 was assigned to this conference by organizers. Prior to the conference, we set up both the HootSuite (www.HootSuite.com) and Hashtracking23 (www.HashTracking.com) services to record every tweet bearing the hashtag #STFM13. We recorded and created a complete transcript of all tweets occurring for the 5 days of the conference and 3 days both before and afterwards (https://www.hashtracking.com/reports/blevy/STFM13/P2h51259).
The complete transcript included the message itself, the sender, and any additional hashtags used, beyond #STFM2013. The hashtracking.com service also calculated several key metrics (number of tweets, number of re-tweets, number of individuals or accounts generating tweets) for us based on the data, including providing a histogram of the users sending Tweets most frequently and those that were most widely disseminated.
We then excluded all re-tweets and manually categorized only the original tweets based on criteria developed in previous studies19 as follows: (1) Session related—all tweets whose content was related to a conference session (quotes, impressions, statements, knowledge gained, for example: "#STFM13 Dr John Saultz—in one year—you can't change the world—but you can begin conversations, you can change a person or two"), (2) Social—tweets not related to session content; tweets related to social gatherings, meet-ups, new followers, joining twitter, humor, banter, musings, and jokes, for example: "Thanks #STFM13 for a great conference. Shout out to all my new twitter followers from mtg. Time to head home!", (3) Logistics—tweets informing participants of official STFM events, sessions, and meetings, including room numbers, speakers, and activities, for example: "The 46th STFM Annual Spring Conference starts Wednesday! Follow the #STFM13 hashtag to catch live-tweets and conference highlights," (4) Advertising—tweets by commercial entities and companies promoting their services and products and job openings. For example: "Need ride to and from the airport? #STFM13 attendees get @SuperShuttle discount when they use the code A626D," (5) Other—all tweets that do not fall into the above categories (including advocacy, resources, tweets in other languages, links and conversations not related to the conference directly). The third author categorized all the tweets, each of which was later reviewed by the lead author in consultation with the second author in order to reach a consensus on the correct category.
As a form of comparison, we also looked at similar analytics generated by The HealthCare Hashtag Project, Symplur, which generates some data for free and posts it on their web site (Symplur.com).24 Additionally, Symplur had, on their public website, data available about the 2012 STFM Annual Spring Conference, and we compared the Symplur-generated 2012 to the 2013 Annual Spring Conference on key common metrics.
Additionally, to supplement our quantitative data with some qualitative materials, we asked the top tweet generators why they tweet and why tweeting from a conference is important, via direct email inquiries.
The study was deemed "non-reviewable" by our institution's IRB due to the public availability of the data and the fact that it does not involve human subjects.
Basic Metrics
In total there were 1,818 tweeted messages from 181 different user accounts. This is compared to the total conference attendance, which is reported by STFM to be approximately 1,370 (personal communication). It is equal to 13% of the total in-person conference registrants.
The majority of tweets were original messages (61%) (Table 1), and over half of all tweets (56%) originated from a group of only 10 users (Table 2).
The top tweeter with the handle @SingingPenDrJen accounted for over 15% of the total tweets, and the top 10 tweeters accounted for over 50% of the total volume.
Tweet Content
Most original tweets (69.7%) were related to session content (Figure 1). Social content came in second (14.2%), following by other, logistics, and advertisement, respectively (7.6%, 6.9%, and 1.6%).
The Symplur data (Table 3, Figure 2) shows that there was actually a slight decrease in the number of tweets recorded compared to the previous year (2012) but a slight increase in the number of participants. Over the duration of the event the tweets appear to follow approximately the same pattern with slightly more tweets at the beginning and ending of the conference in 2013.
Impressions measure the maximum possible dissemination of a message. They are calculated by taking the number of tweets sent by each participant and multiplying it by the number of followers that a participant currently has and adding them all together. While it is possible to calculate the number of impressions, calculating their "value" is challenging. There is data from internet marketers that attempt to objectively measure their "value," showing that the average "value" of an "impression" to company revenue is comparable to paid internet advertising.25 Thus, while there is a way to establish the monetary value of a tweet, it remains to be seen what this means for the propagation of scientific or educational information.
Interestingly, in this case, despite the increase in participants the actual number of impressions went down almost 41% between 2012 and 2013. This may be largely because a small number of highly active and followed users were less active in 2013 or absent from the conference.
Reasons for Using Twitter
Based on the responses of the top tweet generators (n=9—we excluded STFM because they have an obvious reason to tweet from their own meeting; 100% response rate), we identified four main themes: (1) Sharing information with others, particularly those not in attendance, (2) Facilitate networking, (3) Family medicine and medical education advocacy, (4) Note taking and note keeping (Table 4).
This study sought to characterize and describe Twitter activity at one of the major family medicine-
specialty annual meetings. Social media research is a field still in its infancy. Descriptive analyses are the first steps in trying to understand this medium, by looking quantitatively at the messages themselves, their dissemination, the messengers, or the recipients. Such basic data can benefit users and organizers of future meetings and suggest avenues for inquiry and, perhaps, offer a better understanding of participants' actions and behaviors related to conference activities. This type of information may assist organizations to adjust their social media strategic planning, identify "top influencers" and design advocacy or information dissemination activities. Our study reveals that most participants used the medium to relay content from the scientific sessions. Content delivery included direct quotes, paraphrasing the speaker, photos of the speaker(s), personal commentary related to the content, and speaker encouragement.
Social use was notable as a means of having an informal dialogue between users, making new introductions, welcoming new users, and setting "Tweetups"—face-to-face meetings of twitter users who may have known each other only virtually but now have a chance of translating their social media connection to an in-person engagement. It offers a good example of how Twitter can be used as a "conversation starter" among like-minded individuals and can help create social connections and networking opportunities among people who might otherwise never get to talk to each other. Advertising content, primarily from conference sponsors, vendors, job offers, and transportation services, comprised the smallest portion of the tweets. It would be interesting to follow this trend, as commercial entities and industry sponsors are likely to enhance their efforts to reach a wide audience via Twitter in the coming years.
Around 30% of the total number of generated tweets were re-tweets—original messages penned by somebody other than the user, that the user decided to relay to his or her followers. In previous research, these tweets tend to propagate in a power law distribution, with most tweets not being re-tweeted at all and a small number being re-tweeted thousands of times, with some messages persisting and spreading for as many as eight re-tweeting generations.26 The retweets allow participants to engage in the dialogue albeit in a somewhat more passive way. It may be a suitable, preferred, or even common way for newcomers to partake in the conversation until they feel more confident and adept at this medium to generate their own content. The re-tweeters have the power to propagate the message and they are, in fact, the key to dissemination efforts. When comparing the basic metrics from 2012 to 2013, a few things are noted: (1) The volume of tweets is nearly similar, varying by less than 10% between 2012 and 2013, (2) The number of participants has grown from 166 to 180. Although seemingly a small number, this change has the potential to be very significant depending on the number of followers of each new user. The more followers a user has, the larger the dissemination potential of the message, (3) Impressions—that measure the maximum possible dissemination of a message—decreased between 2012 and 2013. This could be due to the absence of several key participants or cumulative changes in the number of followers across the population. It is important to note that despite the increased number of participants or content generators, the volume of tweets has not followed suit. In fact, the number of tweets per hour and tweets generated per person were larger in 2012: fewer participants generated more content than in 2013. Analysis of individual users and "top generators" or "top influencers" and their sphere of potential influence (eg, number of followers and re-tweets) can shed more light on this matter in the future and help identify key individuals who may serve as the "social authority" when it comes to family medicine or conference-related content.
Our study has several limitations. (1) As far as content is concerned, we only looked at the 2013 STFM Annual Spring Conference and therefore can provide only a brief snapshot of Twitter activity for this one meeting. In order to document trends, and even impact, comparison with future conferences and follow-up studies will need to be carried out, (2) It is extremely hard, with the current analytic methods that are available, to gauge the dissemination of any messages sent and the impact of the tweets. Tweet volume cannot provide much insight about content and impact. While we can analyze what was said and how widely that message was broadcast, it is impossible to tell who is reading the tweets and what action the recipients are taking as a result, (3) We captured only the tweets that bore the official hashtag (#STFM13) of the conference. It is possible that tweet generators sent messages related to the conference without the official hashtag or that some generators used the wrong hashtag for some, or all, their tweets. As a result, we may have missed tweets, which would have affected the accuracy of our content analysis and other statistics.
What is clear, however, is that the use of twitter during medical conferences (in family medicine and outside our specialty) is expanding overall.
Participants vary from year to year, and their likelihood of tweeting is not a constant and may be influenced by multiple issues (time, other activities, Wi-Fi access, technological platform and gadgets, and mood, among others). Several "social participants" were not physically at the conference, which demonstrates, even in this small sample, how traditional hierarchical information dissemination from authority can coexist and engage in a way that allows outside voices, even those physically outside the convention, to participate in dialogue. The importance of technologies that allow degrees of virtual participation is clear, and their role is expanding. Organizations and events that encourage and actively engage in electronic discussions may be able to broaden their reach and attract new followers. It will be interesting and beneficial to examine virtual participation and its effects on the dissemination of content-related materials, the expansion of conference-generated dialogue, and on conference registration and participation.
Interdisciplinary research, both quantitative and qualitative, from fields such as health communication, linguistics, social and computer sciences, tele-health, and others should be developed to design evaluation methods that can begin to assess its quality, value, impact, and outcomes based on tweeting behavior.

To report an emergency in progress, call 911.
May 21, 2015
The public will get a chance to check out the new carpeting and linoleum in the Auburn Library when it reopens at 10 a.m. Friday, May 22.
The Auburn branch of the Placer County Library has been closed since May 1 while almost 16,000 square feet of new flooring was installed to replace carpeting and linoleum that were in bad shape after 21 years of high-traffic use.
The branch library will resume normal operations on Friday.
"We are excited about welcoming the community back," said Director of Library Services Mary George. "I appreciate the library community's support and patience, and can't wait to show everyone how the new flooring and a few other changes have given the library a new, fresh atmosphere that everyone will appreciate."
She thanked county Capital Improvements and Building Maintenance staff for their work on the project. County capital improvements funds were used to pay for the new flooring. No library operational funds were used.
The old carpet was installed in 1994. The life expectancy for flooring in high-use community libraries is typically 10 to 15 years.

Happy Thanksgiving
>> Thursday, November 26, 2009
I was awakened at 2:25 A.M. (CST) by a telephone call from my youngest son, Craig. When I answered he told me he was calling to wish me a happy Thanksgiving. I asked if there was something else he wished to tell me, and there was. He informed me that I had a new granddaughter, Sammi Elizabeth Pifer, born at 12:03 A.M. (PST). So, we have another grandchild to be very thankful for. We now have eleven grandchildren, seven granddaughters and four grandsons.
As I was carrying in firewood this morning I noticed that one of our strawberry plants has it's seasons confused!
Our fall has been quite mild with a low temperature of about 30 degrees only once or twice. I still have several items in the garden. I went out and gathered greens for today's salad. I had radish leaves, beet leaves, turnip leaves, two kinds of lettuce and two kinds of chard. With a little oil and vinegar dressing it will be yummy.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Heaven Scent Red Poppies
by Nancy Medina
Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Heaven Scent is a new little red poppy in the studio, a diversionary tactic to help me avoid packing the suitcase and the EasyL Easel and paint tubes for my solo art show and class in Fredericksburg, Texas, this week. It's amazing what I can get done when I'm supposed to be doing something else. I can get the whole house cleaned in an hour if I'm really supposed to be working on tags for paintings. I can get two pugs bathed in half an hour flat if I'm supposed to be packing paintings to ship. And I can make the coolest art workshop banners with pretty text fonts I absolutely did not need but purchased anyway when I'm supposed to be writing my newsletter. I am the most productive procrastinator on the planet. Is that true for all artists, I wonder?

Where are your cabins?
Our cabins are located all throughout the wooded rolling hills and valley of Greer. Each is privately owned and completely unique, with a wide range of amenities and features—including gorgeous wood burning fireplaces, spacious decks with BBQ grills, Jacuzzi tubs, outdoor hot tubs, game rooms, media rooms, satellite TV, WiFi. All of our cabins have propane BBQ grills and propane is supplied by us.
Some cabins are located in the village of Greer and some are on spacious wooded lots surrounded by Aspens and Ponderosa Pines. When you rent a cabin in Greer through Greer Cabin Keepers, you are sure to enjoy a "genuine Greer" experience! There's nothing "cookie cutter" or corporate about this adventure.
Are there grocery stores nearby?
Yes, there are plenty of grocery stores in the area. There is a Safeway and Bashas grocery store in Eagar, a scenic 15 minute drive from Greer Village. But if you're on your way up to Greer from the Phoenix area, you should consider stopping at Eddie's Country Store or Safeway in Pinetop to pick up any snacks or drinks you'd like to have on hand at your cabin. You might also choose to stop in Show Low as it is the last outpost with a Wal-Mart or K-Mart. Keep in mind; however, there is a small local grocery shop in Greer called The Lazy Trout! While staying in Greer, you'll find that this is a convenient and friendly place to grab an energy drink or purchase basic groceries, drinks, beer, liquor, wine, toiletries, fishing gear, souvenirs, and more!
Are you close to White Mountain attractions?
You bet! All of our cabins are located throughout the valley and rolling hills of Greer, which is a lovely 'trapped in time' slice of alpine paradise in the heart of Arizona's White Mountains. Explore the 'Plan Your Visit' link from our Homepage to see just how many attractions and recreational opportunities there are within Greer—or a quick drive.
Notably, Greer is only 12 miles from Sunrise Ski Park where guests can enjoy skiing, snowboarding, sledding and sleigh rides in the winter, and hiking and mountain biking in the pines, water slides and the newly installed zip line in the spring, summer and fall! One of the most attractive aspects of Greer is that it is not a town on one of the state byways. Instead, it's just tucked away enough to give you the privacy and relaxation you deserve during your vacation while still giving you accessibility to everything the White Mountains have to offer.
What do you provide?
We provide towels, bed linens and STARTER amounts of wood, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, detergent for the dishwasher, garbage bags and hand soap for the kitchen and bathrooms. We ask that you bring your own shampoo, soaps, hair dryers, and any special cook ware such as a crock pot needed.
What do we need to bring?
All of our cabins have fully equipped kitchens and outdoor propane grill (with propane provided) most have washer and dryers available for use. You will need to bring; food, beverages, spices, foil, plastic wrap, etc. as well as shampoo, soap, hair dryer and toiletries needed. If you have an infant, you may need a portable crib and linens for the crib. While we provide linens, including towels, we do suggest that you bring beach towels if your cabin has an outdoor Jacuzzi. We recommend to all of our guests that you pack a first aid kit and a flashlight in the unlikely event that you would need them.
What about fishing?
A valid Arizona fishing license is required for Arizona resident and non-resident anglers 14 years of age or older fishing any public accessible water in Arizona. Youth under the age of 14 and blind residents do not need to purchase a state fishing license to fish in Arizona. Check the Arizona Fishing Regulations for additional information. A variety of hunting and fishing licenses are available online, including some stamps and temporary nonresident licenses. To access the Arizona Game and Fish online license service, visit the secure site by clicking here.
When can we see Fall colors… and when does it snow?
The breathtaking fall color in the White Mountains always depends upon the amount of rainfall and the temperature leading up to October. The fall colors usually peak anywhere from early to mid-October. The golden aspens normally last until the beginning of November. If you want to see snow, your best bet is to visit anywhere between mid-December and the end of February. Although few people think of Arizona as having any snow, at 8,500 feet elevation our Winter snowfall is quite dependable. We tend to get most of our snowfall in December and January—and it's simply magical. Of course the higher elevations will see more accumulation, specifically nearby at Sunrise Ski Park. When it does snow substantially, it tends to stick around—giving Greer its reputation as a Winter Wonderland, perfect for sledding, skiing, snowboarding, sleigh rides, building snowmen and having snowball fights!
Will we see bears at our cabin?
It is certainly possible, but not likely. Even so, we recommend being mindful of not leaving food or trash outside at night.
What is there to do in Greer?
Greer is an endless adventure of outdoor recreation! Hiking, biking, fishing, zip-lining, water sliding, horseback riding, ski-ing and snowboarding. There are also great shops such as the Grey Goose, Copper Barrel, and Art Etc along with the historic Butterfly Lodge Museum.

Severn Suzuki addressed the UN as a representative from ECO (Environmental Children's Organization) on the issue of the environment in 1992. Although this video may be old, her worlds ring loud and clear today. I urge you all to watch her speech to the UN:
Severn was twelve years old when she gave this address. Her courage and bravery are remarkable, but even more so is her passion. She is a living example of a youth taking on leadership and giving the adult world a reality check. She proved to us teens that we can have a voice among the adult world. Imagine hundreds and thousands of Savern's coming together and talking to their local governments. I think that would create quite the impact, don't you?

Long Billed Curlew
Posted by Douglas Brown , Thursday, September 16, 2010 11:59 PM
Long Billed Curlew
After a month or so of absence from my camera I went out to Blackie Spit just to see if things are still happening, and came across the Long Billed Curlew.
This is a good start to come back with.
The next stop was Deer Lake in Burnaby, and as I was ready to leave for lack of anything avian, I spotted the kingfisher up in a tree hurling up something she ate, or whatever behaviour this is.

I know a lot of people who are absolutely terrified by locations like the deep sea or outer space. And yeah, I guess I can see why it would be scary – the unknown is almost always scary – but on my personal list of things to be frightened of, those places rank pretty low (due to zero probability of me actually ever being in those places.)
Watching films like Gravity will be the closest I'm getting to going into space, as well as the closest I'm getting to understanding why people are so terrified of it. Directed by Alfonso Cuarón of Children of Men fame, Gravity is about two astronauts, played by Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, who find themselves stranded in space after an accident detaches them from their shuttle and cuts off their link to Earth.
The movie trailer had already been released a few months ago, but more teaser clips have been trickling out recently. The clips highlight the isolation and panic of the untethered astronauts quite well, and I found myself pretty unnerved by how tiny the two of them seemed compared to the vast darkness of space around them.
I'm not entirely sure how this is going to work as a full-fledged movie (the concept and general tone of the clips seem more fitting for a short film so far), but the clips are interesting enough to pique my interest.
Watch the trailer and clips for yourself below, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Gravity is due out in theaters on October 4, 2013.

If you want to add a sound file to the list of available sounds (in mail, ichat, or system prefs) then you'll need to drag it to *Your Home Folder*/Library/Sounds/. However, it would have to be an aif file I believe. You can convert a sound file in quicktime or iTunes. (Quicktime is easier.)
Hope that helps!

It's now 2:00 AM on a Tuesday night and you've been lying in bed riddled with thoughts. You toss and turn trying to get comfortable but it just is not working! Your brain is racing a mile-a-minute and you begin to get frustrated. Falling asleep seems impossible.
This is an all too familiar scenario that many people face every night when trying to fall asleep. They start to think about if they remembered to pay their credit card bill, or if they forgot to call someone, etc. It's natural; many people think these thoughts while trying to fall asleep. Fortunately for you we live in a world where there are plenty of remedies for sleep deprivation, and sleep insomnia.
There are many options on the market place that can be used as a natural sleep aid. The problem with using a medication is that you can become dependent on it and an addiction can occur. There can also be side effects and a potential relapse when coming off of the medication. In addition, some medications make it very hard to wake up in the morning or you remain drousy all day. If you need to drive to work or otherwise stay alert this is a problem. Many of the more extreme sleep deprivation and insomnia cases must use a prescribed medication because natural ways are just not strong enough for them. Until you get used to them, you should consider using a driver alert device the next day to protect you from dozing off while driving and causing an accident.
More and more people are turning towards natural remedies to conquer sleep issues. Just like you would consult your doctor before taking any medicinal sleep aids, you should also confer with them when seeking a natural sleep aids. This is because there are many different types of herbal remedies on the market, but not all of them will work for you and this allows your doctor to monitor the situation in case you do need to go on a medication. For the most part doctors like to try out natural sleeping aids before prescribing anything to you as a sleep aid.
There are many different natural sleep aids available to the public without needing a prescription. One of the most well know of these is Melatonin. Melatonin is known as the "sleep hormone", this is what your body is supposed to produce at night, but often times our bodies do not produce enough of it which is why melatonin supplements are usually the first thing to try. This is a simple solution that could work for you and it is the most popular natural sleeping aid. Keep in mind that natural remedies can be powerful as well and care should be taken the next day when driving or operating heaving machinery. You may want to consider getting a driver alert if the supplement you are taking has this effect on you.
There are a handful of others as well: SAMe, Valerian, Chamomile, Tryptophan, 5-HTP and Kava, just to name a few others. One of these could work as well; your doctor will be able to determine which one is best for you can provide you with a good night sleep once again. The best natural sleep aid is what works best for you so you may have to try out some different options.
If you can not conquer your fatigure while driving, at work or at school you may find a Stay Awake Device handy: http://stayawakedevice.com

Beachbody's P90X is a popular and intense series of home workout videos designed to get you in peak shape in 90 days. This set of videos is not for beginners. I have decided to review the first video in the series, titled Chest & Back, in order to give some insight into how this specific workout is set up and what it has to offer.
Chest & Back Review
The Chest & Back workout is a 52 minute video comprised of two rounds. Each round contains 12 exercises, divided into 3 sets of 4 exercises each.
Each set is separated from each other by a 30 second break.
The exercises in each set are combinations of push-ups and pull-ups, with three exercises using dead weights.
There are 6 pushup exercisesin total, and they are regular push-ups, wide-fly push-ups, military push-ups, diamond push-ups, decline push-ups, and divebomber push-ups.
The 3 pull-up exercises include wide front pull-ups, close grip pull-ups, and reverse grip chin-ups.
The deadweight exercises are heavy pants, lawnmowers, and back flys.
My Opinion
The Chest & Back workout, which is the first workout in the P90X series, is a solid foundation for the series. It is very old-fashioned, in the sense that most of the exercises employed in the video have been around for years. There is no real fancy equipment in this video; most of the exercises use the floor or a pull-up bar, and you use your own body's weight to create resistance.
That being said, this video works me. I am always dead tired after finishing these 52 minutes and have noticed significant results with this video.
Before I had ever used this video, it was a struggle to finish 20 push-ups. Now I can crank out 35 with ease. I could hardly do 3 pull-ups before, and now I can do more than 10.
If you put the work in, these exercises will get you results. If you're looking for a good weight set to use with the series, I recommend the Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbells.
Good luck! If you have any questions, just ask.

About Ingredients:
- LEMON 450 mg capsules
LEMON 450 mg capsules
Freeze-Dried Lemon powder, Vegetable capsule
History: Lemons are believed to have originated in India or China. Lemons have been principally used for their juice, and as an ingredient in cooking and baking. Because of its citric acid content and low ph of 2-3, lemon has been used for its antiseptic characteristics, for digestion and for helping clear common ailments such as clogged sinuses. Most germs do not survive at low ph. Lemon tree cultivation spread to Europe during the 1400's through their trade with India, and eventually were carried by sailors to the "New World" during the exploration by Spain. Lemons and their seeds spread across the globe as sailors recognized that this citrus fruit could help protect them from the ravages of scurvy.
Processing: Seagate's lemons are grown in the interior valleys of Baja California. Seagate freeze-dries these whole lemons (which includes the skin, the pulp, the seeds and the juice) to make this whole lemon concentrate powder contained in each capsule. This is a very delicate low-temperature / high vacuum process that removes only the moisture contained in this fruit, retaining all of the valuable nutrients. These lemons have been grown and processed without the use of any chemicals.
Benefits: Seagate Lemon is made from the whole lemon. While most people use only the juice and very infrequently due to its very acidic taste, Seagate Lemon is a low-cost, convenient way to enjoy the benefits of whole lemons on a daily basis. Lemon has many diverse applications. Although it is acidic, the metabolism of the lemon by the body will actually cause it to become slightly alkaline, which is less tolerable for fungus. It is a natural anti-microbial, supports kidney, liver and bowel functions, and has a very attractive smell. Just smelling the pleasant aroma of this product can make you feel good.
Convenience: This product is the only practical way to consume the entire lemon.
Competition: This freeze-dried whole lemon concentrate is unique. The manufacture of this product requires specialized machinery that can capture all the juice and recombine it with the ground up seeds, pulp and skin which are dried in a vacuum chamber and then pulverized into a fine powder.
Suggested Use: Take 1 to 2 capsules a day.

Lemon 450 mg V Caps
By: consumer from Shreveport, LA US on November 1, 2018
"These are AMAZING ! Had kidney stones for 10 years. Was having to take daily shots of lemon concentrate per doctor's orders to keep them at bay but it wasn't a cure all. Came across these online one day by accident and decided to try them. 7 months in I no longer have any stones. A true miracle. Another plus, my husband started taking them for the vitamin C aspect and it cured his acid reflux., something he has had daily for 40 plus years. Another true miracle. I cannot thank this company enough for making our life better. Not exaggerating. "

Lemon Powder
By: BBBB from Warren, US on July 4, 2013
"After reading about this product on Doug Kaufmann's Know the Cause website I decided to try it. Instead of squeezing lemon into my water I now use this knowing I'm now getting all the benefits of the whole lemon. It makes sense to use this lemon powder to help keep our bodies more alkaline, which in turn helps to kill fungus overgrowth we all deal with whether we know it or not. "Listening to my body" so to speak, I feel healthier and less bloated when I consume the lemon powder. "

Lemon Powder 100 grams
By: sisj from Perth Amboy, US on January 4, 2014
"The Product did not taste like lemon...called Seagate the Seagate Representative explained it depended upon the time or season the lemon was process; found the taste to be more of the Lemon Seed (Color was Dark like the Seed) instead of the lemon taste I expected from an actually fresh Squeezed Lemon or TRue Lemon Crystals....I have tried other products; was really happy about but would have loved to experience the real lemon taste with Seagate since all the Products are Natural with No Additives and since I love lemons I felt this was the best way to have the Product I love in its' most natural form...would only recommend if you like the taste of the seed of the lemon...Thank You "

Excellent Product
By: Philip from Lexington, KY US on November 13, 2014
"Great service from this company. Purchase arrives quickly - within 3-days usually. This is the type of product I have been looking for - a whole food supplement - the entire lemon is ground into a powder. Actually tastes great, a little sour but to be expected with lemon. "

It also has pretty much every popular mac and pc app available but is NOT a place for IM stuff. When people could get away with it memberships were trading for $100 plus. Anyway, I've been a member from day one and have a few invites available for anyone with good ratios on other PT sites (or anyone with a good rep here). I only have about 7 invites so be sharp (anything given in return will be greatly appreciated but totally not necessary).

Finance Minister Bill Morneau says Canada should be exempted from the aluminum and steel tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump is weighing.
He says Canada is a "staunch ally" of the U.S. and that it has been "firm" in its opposition to the tariffs.
Speaking at a women's entrepreneurship event in Toronto, he stressed the tariffs are not advantageous to either country or national security.
Morneau's comments came hours after Trump tweeted he would nix aluminum and steel tariffs if NAFTA negotiations end with a new agreement that's more favourable for the U.S.
The latest round of NAFTA talks are concluding this week in Mexico City.
The Trump administration has been citing national security as the reason why it's eying tariffs of 10 per cent on aluminum and 25 per cent on steel.
