You woke up one day and life as you knew it ended.
- Your husband left you for his 20-year-old secretary and your life is suddenly a bad General Hospital episode only you don't have perfect hair, you cried your mascara off weeks ago and you can't get out of bed.
- Your brother/sister/mother/father/best friend/baby/teenager died and the pain is so intense it hurts to exist.
- Someone you love more than life – maybe even you – has cancer/blood clots in their lungs/kidneys that don't work and you're terrified.
You were born to love and be loved. When bad things happen, you feel pain. Your world is rocked. You're devastated. You're grieving.
You find yourself:
- Scraping the last bite of egg off the breakfast dishes and sobbing to Lee Ann Womack's I Hope You Dance.
- Unable to answer the phone, respond to an email or have a conversation that lasts longer than 2.5 minutes.
- Yelling at your husband for the third night in a row not knowing what you're fighting about or why it matters.
Grief sucks. It is isolating, lonely, hard work. You want to figure it out/ignore it/sleep for 6 months. You want the pain to go away.
What if I told you that grief is one of the most powerful ways to change your life for the better? That by letting pain be your teacher and guide, you can create a more beautiful, purposeful life?
You'd either think I was nuts, or you'd want to know more.
If you think I'm nuts, you can stop reading. This isn't right for you at this moment in time, and that's perfectly fine.
Grief changes you. Unfortunately we all have to go through it – it's part of being human. But you get to choose if it leaves you thriving or barely surviving. Life falls apart to give us the opportunity to pick the pieces up, toss the broken bits out, and put the rest back in a different order.
What if…
~ You had a community of compassionate, like-minded women ready to talk about the tough stuff instead of tip-toeing around like you've got the plague?
~ You carved out regular time to take care of yourself, sit with your feelings and dig deep to figure out what's really going on inside?
~ You had a deeply caring and involved leader to answer your hardest questions, point you in the right direction and share practically-secret information about grieving?
What if every time the pain hit, you had a tool box full of specific actions to take to help you benefit from the experience instead of feeling like you're doing it wrong, losing your mind, or taking 8 steps backward?
You'd feel like a different woman. One who could face her day and her darkest fears with grace, guts and an occasional chuckle.
If you feel 1000 pounds lighter at the thought, then you want…
The Picking Up the Pieces Tele-Retreat
(new dates for mid-2013 tba)
The Set Up:
Week 1: Your Body
Your body is miracle and grief is hard on it. Learn how to take extra special care.
Find out what your body needs to feel healthy and vibrant.
Fine tune your intuition by listening to its deepest desires.
Move your way into emotional release, allowing your muscles to let go of stored memories that are holding you back.
Week 2: Your Mind
Your mind can help you heal or make you suffer. Learn how to make it a powerful tool that works for, instead of against, you.
Unravel the stories you tell yourself that keep you stuck and rewrite them to rewire your brain.
Discover how habitual thoughts are wreaking havoc on your body and emotions and begin to let them go.
Learn rarely shared facts about grief that will have you talking to others (and yourself) with insight and compassion.
Week 3: Your Heart
When your heart is broken open, life doesn't make sense. But it will again, I promise. Let your heart lead the way.
The "I'm trying to escape my emotions" marathon you're running every day is exhausting. Make friends with the scary feelings so you have energy for the joyful ones.
Identify the perfect ways to take care of you – not your mother, your husband, your best friend or your kids (because let's face it, you put their needs first don't you?)
Learn to trust that you are exactly where you need to be to heal your deepest pain.
Week 4: Your Spirit
You are gorgeous and wounded. We all are. Listening to the whispers of your soul will help you walk through the pain.
A belief system is vital to posttraumatic growth. Uncover what's working – and what's not – about yours.
Understand how energy connects us all and start seeing magic everywhere.
Rise like a Phoenix from the fires of grief. Because beauty, you are a miracle and it's time to start treating yourself like one.
Week 5: Your Relationships + Community
Grief can be isolating and loneliness makes everything harder. You need your right people, and they need you.
Determine which relationships are supporting you and which aren't. Strengthen the good ones, and let the rest go.
Learn to ask for and receive help, because you can't do life alone.
Get brave. Get honest. Be kind. Set the tone for the quality of love in your life.
The Details:
~ Each Tuesday for 5 weeks, at 5pm Pacific/8pm Eastern, we'll have a 90-minute call*. You'll get tips, tools and information + a chance to ask questions and talk about your biggest challenges. Magic happens as you learn from me and each other.
* all calls are recorded for those who can't attend live.
~ After the call, you'll receive an email with your homework for the week. This is where you'll dig deep + discover exactly what YOU need to thrive.
~ Every week you'll download a special meditation that connects you to universal healing energy specific to each theme. That sounds "woo" I know. I'm an energy worker and Reiki healer so the woo is an added bonus.
~ Between calls we connect in the secret Facebook group. This is where you share your ups and downs, ask questions, and build community with the tele-retreat tribe.
~ Every weekday morning you'll get a short + sweet email with a radical self-care practice for the day. These bite-sized beauties pack a big self-love punch.
~ I am very accessible and deeply involved through the 5 weeks. I'm on your side beautiful and I want you to experience the life-altering power of your vulnerability.
The Picking Up the Pieces Tele-Retreat is right for you if:
~ You already know you're strong enough to live through this, but you're not exactly sure how.
~ You're ready to drop any victim story and take responsibility for your life.
~ You're able to talk about your loss without completely falling apart.
***Tears are warmly welcomed, but sometimes it's too soon after a traumatic experience to process it in a group. If you're still in shock or denial, or you're feeling incredibly raw, I recommend downloading the free Picking Up the Pieces Guide and scheduling a free 15-minute Shift Session so we can figure out what you need most right now.
Karma-Free Guarantee
I put my heart, soul and expertise into creating this tele-retreat and making sure you get what you need. If you attend all the live calls and do all the weekly homework for the five weeks of the tele-retreat, and you're as stuck and unhappy as you were when you started, I will happily refund your money.

Praise for the Picking Up the Pieces Tele-Retreat
Alana came into my life at the most miraculous time. We became friends just days before my mother's unexpected passing. In the midst of my grief, I decided to join her tele-retreat. It was the poultice my aching heart needed. She created a tight knit community, connecting us by sharing her weekly wisdom and providing a private online space for dialogue. If you've experienced loss of any magnitude, I cannot recommend Alana's Picking Up the Pieces Tele-Retreat highly enough. – Kerrie Blazek, Pleasure Catalyst @ In Her Element – Life Coaching
I am still thinking/feeling so much about your grief conference. I am currently enrolled in another tele-conference and it has given me a reference point to how professional and poignant your conference was. Right to to the heart of the matter and simple, simple, simple (but you know that simple entails a lot of complexity). Please know how profound and deep the work that you do and bring to the world really is! – Lynn E.
The tele-retreat furthered my healing and growth. The awareness of other forms of grief and acknowledging that most everyone is fighting a hard battle. It constantly peeled away the layers of stigma I had for myself and others about grief. For me, I feel I can tap into a more compassionate side of myself reserved for giving to, and was able give myself the same compassion. I was constantly sharing with my husband and opening up new avenues to let the light in. There was one period where the grief work got hard and I didn't want to acknowledge current grief (which would flare up old grief.) But I called-in, and thank God I did, b/c the topics on Relationships and Grieving was the kick in the butt I needed to release tears and love myself and others. – Jes L.
"Picking up the Pieces" was a lifesaver and got me through a very difficult period of grief. I cannot recommend it more highly. Alana's course contains so much helpful information about the grief process–it is information that everyone should know. I hope she teaches this course again. I will definitely recommend it to my friends. – Sharon M.
I felt like the tele-retreat gave me permission to face myself and take care of me. I was able to try some new tools and be aware of being super gentle with myself! I also appreciate having the calls & meditations to look at whenever I want. – Jenny K.
I find it hard to fully explain how hard grief hit me. It was devastating and debilitating and left me hurting and immobilized and confused as to what was going on and how to get through the pain. I began searching the library and bookstores and the internet for some clues about grief, and that's how I found Alana and her tele-retreat. I've taken a couple of online classes, so I figured this would be similar, which wasn't encouraging because in those classes, I felt lost amidst all the students. In this tele-retreat, I felt found and understood and comforted and part of a community.
My grief seemed to turn into suffering when I judged it – judged what I should be feeling or obsessed about what my grief should look like. Alana helped me believe that there are no shoulds, that my grief is my own. Alana doesn't show you the way through grief; she helps you open to your way into and around the grief process. – Carla E.

Senator Mark Grisanti (R, I-60) today announced that the Senate has passed bill S.868, which calls for moving the election of members of the City of Buffalo School Board from May to November, a measure that he says will improve voter turnout and save taxpayers money.
The bill marks the third time that it has passed the Senate.
Grisanti estimates that his bill would save taxpayers over $100,000 due to elections being condensed to one day in November.
The legislation also calls for extending the terms of current members of the Buffalo School Board to the last day of December rather than June, allowing for future terms of office to run from January through December.
Grisanti is passionate about the issue, saying many constituents in the 60th District have asked him to continue to push for passage of his legislation.
New York State Senator Mark Grisanti (R,I- Buffalo) and New York State Assemblyman Sean Ryan (D,WF- Buffalo) announced today that legislation they sponsored in the Senate and Assembly has passed and been signed into law by Governor Cuomo. The legislation (S2075, A836) adds Scajaquada Creek to the state list that defines inland waterways.
Prior to this new law, the list did not include Scajaquada Creek, which meant it was not eligible for state and federal grants under the New York State Environmental Protection Fund's Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (EPF-LWRP). Adding Scajaquada Creek to this list will allow funding from the EPF-LWRP to be used to improve water quality and assist with clean-up efforts along the creek.
Senator Mark Grisanti (R, I-60) announced passage of bill that amends the highway law to designate the bridge that crosses over Route 198 into Delaware Park that connects Nottingham Terrace with Hoyt Lake in the City of Buffalo as "Scajaquada 9/11 Memorial Bridge." The renaming of the bridge - approved with the passage of Senate Bill 1599 - culminated the efforts of local community activists who have been working on this project for over two years as part of their ongoing efforts to have a memorial in the city that honors people who were killed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
Senator Mark Grisanti (R, I-60) announced passage of Senate bill S. 1710 which would provide green development home tax exemptions. Grisanti's bill would allow a tax exemption of 35 percent for real property for a period of no longer than 20 years if authorized by the local municipality.
According to Senator Grisanti, the legislation will help to incentivize builders to invest in green homes, which are typically more expensive to build.
New York State Senator Mark Grisanti recently announced he nominated United States Army Captain Roger L. Woodworth as his nominee for the New York State Senate's 2013 Veterans Hall of Fame Honoree Celebration.
CPT Woodworth was recently recognized at a ceremony and luncheon in Albany for his efforts in the military as well as his work as a veteran in Western New York.
"I am proud to nominate Roger for this honor because of the many contributions he has made and continues to make in our community," said Senator Grisanti. "His efforts at the Veteran One-Stop Center and the Western New York Veterans Housing Coalition as well as his various interests outside of that work are to be commended, which is why I am glad to acknowledge the work of him and all veterans as part of our celebration of veterans."
We are currently celebrating National Women's Health Week.
With this in mind, I'm pleased to report that I've just voted to approve two critically important bills that are designed to improve women's health care throughout our state. These measures include the following:
Breast Cancer Mapping — Few New York families haven't been touched in some way by the great pain, suffering and loss that can be caused by breast cancer. Fortunately, both the Senate and Assembly have now taken action on legislation allowing funds from the Breast Cancer Research and Education Fund to be used for breast cancer mapping initiatives, and to generate innovative proposals that can help identify why some areas are more prone to breast cancer than others. We've made great strides in identifying the incidences of breast cancer statewide, but more can and should be done to isolate clusters and areas of the state where this insidious disease is more common than others.
Says Mortgage Tax Collections up 16.8% Over Same Period Last Year
Erie County, NY-Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs announced his office will soon distribute to local governments throughout the County their share of the Erie County Mortgage Tax collections based off of real estate transactions recorded in the Clerk's Office. The total to be distributed on May 15th is $7,896,969.86 and covers the six month period October 1, 2012-March 31, 2013. This amount is 16.8% higher than the same period last year.
"Record low interest rates have fueled both refinancing and home purchases throughout Western New York. This is a positive development for Erie County's municipal governments since mortgage tax distributions are a major source of revenue for many of the County's cities, towns and villages," stated County Clerk Jacobs.

Twitter targets TV

SARATOGA SPRINGS — A new justice court judge has been appointed in Saratoga Springs.
Mayor Mia Love selected Carolyn E. Howard to fill the post left by the Dec. 31 retirement of Judge Keith Stoney.
Howard is a tenured professor in the Legal Studies Department at Utah Valley University and has worked at the law office of Wasatch Lawyers, Bartholomew & Associates since 2007. She received her law degree from the J. Reuben Clark Law School after receiving a Bachelor of Science degree from BYU.
Howard's appointment is subject to certification by the Utah Judicial Council and completion of the court's new judge orientation.
Stoney spent time on the bench in Saratoga Springs and West Valley City and met with controversy in both cities after allegations against him led to reprimands from the Utah Judicial Conduct Commission. Stoney announced that he would retire in September after he struck a deal with the commission that he would retire if any pending complaints against him were dropped.
Clint Gilmore took over the vacancy left by Stoney's retirement in West Valley City.

In the past, I've had a tendency to vacillate between eating to live and living to eat, but now I'm aiming for a place between these two extremes. A place that is neither feast nor famine. A place where enjoying good food is as beneficial to my body as it is to my soul.
Chipotle and Rosemary Roasted Nuts from Ina Garten fit this philosophy perfectly. The recipe for these amazing nuts comes from Barefoot Contessa How Easy Is That?: Fabulous Recipes & Easy Tips.
The nuts are a mix of cashews, pecans, walnuts and almonds glazed with maple syrup, brown sugar, and freshly squeezed orange juice, then seasoned with rosemary, salt and chipotle powder. The result is a scrumptious sweet and salty combo with a little kick of smoky heat from the chipotle. Yum!
These roasted nuts are hands-down the best I've ever tasted. They are also super healthy, but like most good things, should be enjoyed in moderation.

HoopsHype.com RumorsRodrigue BeauboisVisit the HoopsHype Forums to discuss the latest news and rumors in the NBA. |
» Thursday, June 28 2012 |
Mavs president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson said he believes Beaubois, finally healthy enough to train for the full summer, has the desire and toughness to excel, and that he's been the victim of a veteran log-jam in the backcourt. "Yes, the injury really set him back," Nelson said. "There's another late first-round pick that's quick as a cat, upside and again you're stuck behind one of the greatest point guards to ever play (Jason Kidd) and then Delonte (West) really did some nice stuff for us this year and we certainly have to figure out a way to get him minutes. So in fairness to Roddy, the injury set him back, it's been a little bit disjointed in terms of playing time as a result of that, but last year he really helped us win some games and we're really looking forward to him building on this past year." ESPN.com |

Paris, we have a problem. The French National Team who will play the Olympic Games in London in the summer, lost two important pieces in the last hours: Rodrigue Beaubois and Ian Mahinmi. Both players won't be in London. The first was 'asked' by the Mavs not to participate in the campaign with the National Team after the injury he suffered two summers ago while the second one because he is negotiating a new deal in the NBA with the Mavs. Sportando |
» Tuesday, June 12 2012 |
While there was still hope a few weeks ago, it seemed to have disappeared completely yesterday after the statement from coach Vincent Collet. Rodrigue Beaubois wouldn't play with France this summer. "He's not going to come", said Vincent Collet to L'Equipe. "His situation is unique, he's getting too much pressure, and there's no chance to interfere". That pressure comes from the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, Mark Cuban, who is not a big fan of National Teams. Catch and Shoot |

Backup guard Rodrigue Beaubois missed Sunday's game after he strained his right calf in Friday's game at Portland. But the Mavs aren't considering the injury serious, and said he could play in tonight's game at Utah. Fort Worth Star-Telegram |
» Sunday, April 8 2012 |
Rick Carlisle on Rodrigue Beaubois' play as of late: "He has the ability. It's time for him to play with attitude. The ups and downs are due to his inconsistency in terms of being able to keep the motor going. I had some candid talks with him this week about that and what he's capable of and the fact that he needs to keep that motor up and on. We need him right now. He did a great job the other night. He was into it, and he was playing with attitude. He was playing with force, and we need him to continue to do that for our franchise." Dallas Morning News |
» Monday, April 2 2012 |
The writing seems to be on the wall for Rodrigue Beaubois regarding his spot, or lack thereof, in the Mavs' rotation the rest of the season. Coach Rick Carlisle, however, indicates that isn't necessarily the case. "Just because he didn't play the other night doesn't mean that he's not in our plans," Carlisle said. "We're going to need him." Beaubois got a DNP-CD in Orlando on Friday night. Not coincidentally, that came the day after Delonte West returned from a 5 1/2-week layoff to recover from a gruesomely fractured right ring finger. ESPN.com |
» Tuesday, February 21 2012 |
Sources say Dallas is about ready to move on from the Roddy Beaubois experiment. The Mavericks have thought for years that the talented young Frenchman could be another Tony Parker, but he has not been able to master the move from shooting guard to point guard. Nor has he been able to fill the void left by J.J. Barea. If they don't move him before this year's deadline, he could be gone over the summer. ESPN.com |
» Monday, February 13 2012 |
Two years ago, Mark Cuban declared Rodrigue Beaubois "pretty much untouchable" in the trade market. Now, it's relatively notable for Cuban to say that Beaubois, who hasn't gotten off the bench in the two games since Jason Kidd returned from a strained right calf, remains part of the Mavs' long-term plans. "That's the way we see it now. Absolutely," Cuban said. ESPN.com |
» Friday, February 3 2012 |
The play of Roddy Beaubois has opened the question of whether Jason Kidd's return from his calf muscle injury would mean Kidd will come off the bench. Don't hold your breath, Carlisle said. "No, I wouldn't," he said when asked if he would consider starting Beaubois over Kidd. "At this point, it's just something I wouldn't do. Jason is a starting player on this team at this time and that's my view of him. "Now if he came and begged me to do it, I'd probably listen. But you're talking about situations where we don't know when Kidd is coming back. It could be awhile. Or it could be next week. We're getting a little ahead of ourselves." Dallas Morning News |
» Tuesday, January 24 2012 |
Having seen promising young guard Rodrigue Beaubois go down playing for France and now seeing face of the franchise Dirk Nowitzki nursing an injury and out of Dallas' lineup after playing for Germany, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said he will continue the uphill battle to make international basketball off limits to handsomely paid NBA players. Cuban has argued that NBA owners should not be saddled with the full risk of their players suiting up for their countries in the offseason, and he said other owners agree with him but aren't as vocal in their opposition. ESPN.com Beaubois' level of toughness was questioned Monday night when Phoenix Suns guard Sebastian Telfair clobbered him on a fastbreak attempt early in the third period. Telfair was assessed a Flagrant 2 foul and ejected from the game, while Beaubois picked himself up off the floor and calmly sank the ensuing two free throws to give the Mavs an 86-74 lead. "The Flagrant 2 play was a massive play in the game – a big momentum play,'' Carlisle said. "I thought (Beaubois) showed toughness, he showed resolve, he continued to concentrate. "He's more and more coming to the realization that his game is predicated on the defensive end first, and that's what's going to bring us success this year.'' Fort Worth Star-Telegram |
» Monday, January 9 2012 |
Carlisle wants Beaubois to be this year's J.J. Barea. He needs players at every position — but particularly guards — who can come off the bench with unbounded energy. Beaubois knows what is expected. "I know I have to come in and be ready to bring my energy and do what I can," Beaubois said. "I'm working on it. I just came back from the injury, so every day I feel better. I just have to keep pushing myself. "Offensively, the more I play, the more comfortable I get. But defensively, there is no excuse. I just need to keep pushing myself." Dallas Morning News |
» Sunday, January 8 2012 |
Before Saturday's 96-81 win over New Orleans, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban blew off Thursday's blowout loss at San Antonio and even said he wasn't surprised that his 38-year-old point guard Jason Kidd tweaked his lower back playing in his sixth game in eight nights. In fact, Cuban put a positive spin on it, saying that it'll at least give Kidd some forced time off and will allow some younger players more court time. Cuban wasn't even terribly concerned about the Mavs still having a larger number in the 'L' column than the 'W' column. "That's going to be the thing that people have got to realize and we do already, that you can't take any one game or any two games in some cases as a reflection of anything," Cuban said. "It's really going to come down to, do you make the playoffs and can you figure out a way to get in the playoffs rested?" ESPN.com Dirk Nowitzki said he doesn't have a problem with Roddy's defense, but harped on his skills running the offense. "He's got to work on his decision- making, I think we all know that, coming off pick-and-rolls, making the right plays, seeing the floor that's sometimes problems for him," Nowitzki said. "But I like when he plays hard, he makes stuff happen, and I like when he's aggressive. Sometimes he has to find a better mix of driving and shooting and finding the open guy, but we need him." ESPN.com |
» Sunday, December 18 2011 |
The compacted 66-game schedule will afford that as Carlisle will look to spread playing time as far down the bench as he possibly can. So far in training camp, Beaubois seems to have his quickness working for him as he regains the confidence he showed as a rookie. "The thing with him, we've all seen the flashes of brilliance," Carlisle said. "But we're looking for consistency. We're looking for consistency in terms of concentration and in terms of him utilizing his abilities. And, I believe he's getting better. He had a really solid day [of practice Saturday]. We really need him and Dominique [Jones] and Ian [Mahinmi] and our young guys to be ready because we're going to need them." ESPN.com |

Ndiaye plans to also seek deals in Europe for some of his other NBA clients, such as Portland's Nicolas Batum and Denver's Timofey Mozgov, but added that Roddy Beaubois of the champion Dallas Mavericks underwent surgery on left foot surgery last month and won't pursue opportunities in Europe. "This is a trend. Everybody is trying to sign NBA guys," Ndiaye said in a telephone interview from Paris. Seraphin "may just sign with a team, because I don't think it's a good idea to wait. The market will be overloaded by NBA players. It doesn't hurt to have a pre-agreement if we find something we like. We may just wait and see. But nothing would happen until the European championship ends." Washington Post |

Dallas Mavericks guard Rodrigue Beaubois, who re-injured his troublesome left foot in the regular season finale, had surgery and will be out two to three months. The team released a statement saying the surgery addressed lingering lingering symptoms from the fracture he suffered last summer. The team said the procedure was successful and Beaubois is expected to make a full recovery. The story was first reported by the French-language website sports.fr. Beaubois, 23, played in only 28 games this season after fracturing the left foot while preparing for the 2010 World Championships with the French national team. In the season finale, however, he sprained the same foot and didn't make it onto the floor during the playoffs despite being active. abc.com |

Village water officials failed to meet several treatment technique, reporting and record-keeping requirements for Ruidoso's water supply from May to July. An extended drought and the Little Bear Fire in June were blamed for the problems, but officials emphasized the water supply is safe.
In a public notice scheduled to be published Friday, the village will notify the public of the violations of drinking water standards. However, they stressed that village drinking water is safe and that discoloration is connected to a chemical reaction between chlorine used to disinfect the water and manganese found in the water. Village councilors were briefed about the interaction at a special meeting Thursday. They were told that the village is switching to a well-based supply until Grindstone Reservoir, which serves 30 percent of the village, recovers from its low water level.
"We are required to monitor your water for specific contaminants on a regular basis. In May, June and July, several treatment technique requirements and several reporting and record keeping requirements were not met," according to the village notice. "Although this is not an emergency, as our customers, you have a right to know what happened, what you should do and what we are doing.
"The United States Environmental Protection Agency sets drinking water standards and determined that the presence of microbiological contaminants is a health concern at certain levels of exposure, officials stated. If water
"The EPA set requirements for treating drinking water to reduce the rise of these adverse health effects," the notice states. "Treatment such as filtering and disinfecting the water removes or destroys microbiological contaminants. Drinking water, which is treated to meet EPA requirements, is associated with little to none of this risk and should be considered safe."
Officials advised that the public does not need to take any precautions at this time.
Because of a prolonged drought that extended from winter over the spring and early summer, the village was unable to replenish Grindstone Reservoir, Village Special Projects Director Justin King said Tuesday. With the added effects of the Little Bear Fire in June, the level of Grindstone Reservoir dipped extremely low, officials wrote in the notice.
"Water quality in the Rio Ruidoso is unfit to put in Grindstone Lake to recharge it. With that, the water quality in Grindstone Lake has become very hard to treat to meet state and EPA standards with the current treatment techniques," the notice states. "The water coming from Grindstone Treatment Plant has passed all microbiological testing required by the New Mexico Environment Department. The color is believed to be caused by a chemical reaction between manganese and chlorine gas. Manganese is a secondary contaminant and is considered to be aesthetic."
Village officials are installing five pressure-reducing stations to allow water from village wells near Alto and Eagle Creek to enter into the Grindstone water system. The change should be accomplished by mid October, they wrote.
"The Grindstone Water Plant is already in compliance with all state and EPA standards," they stated. "The Staff at Grindstone Water Plant has worked very hard to accomplish this."
Officials asked those reading the notice to share the information with other people who drink the water, especially those who may not receive the notice directly, such as people in apartments, nursing homes, schools and businesses.

Wide input (6~32 V) 140-watt high voltage DC-DC intelligent power supply that can control the ON/OFF switch of a mainboard based on the ignition status.
The M2-ATX-HV is an intelligent, high-performance, vehicle (car/boat/electric cart) 12-volt DC-DC ATX PC power supply designed for car PC and battery-powered applications. Designed to provide power and to control the ON/OFF switch of a mainboard (car PC) based on ignition status, the M2-ATX-HV is a wide input (6~32 V) vehicle/car/battery operated ATX power supply capable of surviving tough car engine cranks (down to 6 volts), as well as transient over-voltage situations. Just connect it to your car/boat/RV/solar battery and power up your PC! Dimensions (w x h x d): 160 x 19 x 45 mm (6.31" x 1.77" x 0.75")
The M2-ATX comes with a complete cable harness consisting of:
M2-ATX-HV has 8 user-selectable microcontroller driven timing modes, allowing you to choose up to 8 ignition/shutdown car PC timing schemes via a built-in shutdown controller. By removing all user-selectable jumpers, the M2-ATX-HV becomes a traditional PC PSU with no ignition control (shutdown controller bypassed), and it can be used in non-vehicle computer applications.
Even if your computer is totally off, a PC will still consume a few hundred milliwatts, which are needed to monitor PC ON/OFF status. When the computer (car PC) is in the suspend/sleep mode, it will consume even more power, because the RAM needs to be powered at all times. The power consumption in the suspend mode is a few watts. No matter how big your car battery is, it will eventually drain your vehicle battery in a matter of days.
While in deep sleep mode, M2-ATX-HV constantly monitors your car battery voltage levels, preventing deep discharge situations by automatically shutting down (using a built-in shutdown controller) until battery levels reach safe levels again. These features, along with multiple timing schemes, a small footprint, and a very competitive price, makes the M2-ATX-HV the best solution for DC-DC ATX vehicle/car PC power supply solutions.
M2-ATX-HV is form factor compatible with most mini-itx LGX enclosures, and it is footprint compatible with the M1-ATX. The same version of microcode will run on both M1-ATX and M2-ATX.
Note: M2-ATX-HV provides up to 8 amps on the 12-volt rail, making it ideal for operating most Core 2 Duo, Celeron, and AMD systems. Low power Geode and VIA processors (C3, C7) will work as well, leaving ample power for 12-volt or 5-volt peripherals (multiple 3.5" HDDs, CD-ROM, etc).

Wall Street is mustering optimism despite the intensifying uncertainty, as reflected by the U.S. index futures, which point to a modestly higher open on Friday. The European markets are firmer for a second straight day, propelled by financial stocks. Crude oil is extending its gain and gold is also firmer. Risk currencies, including the euro, are also seeing a modest bounce. In the absence of any other market moving catalysts, traders may closely track the results of a U.S. consumer sentiment report.
As of 6:30 am ET, the Dow futures are rising 16 points and the S&P 500 futures are up 3.20 points, while the Nasdaq 100 futures are gaining 7.00 points.
U.S. stocks moved about in a lackluster fashion for much of Thursday's session before closing on a mixed note. The major averages opened little changed and moved back and forth across the unchanged line in the morning, as traders digested the about in line jobless claims data and a report that showed a smaller than expected increase in durable goods orders.
On the economic front, the Reuters and the University of Michigan's final report on the consumer sentiment index for May is scheduled to be released at 9:55 am ET. The consumer sentiment index is expected to be left unrevised at to 77.8.
In corporate news, Semtech (SMTC) reported first quarter non-GAAP earnings of 27 cents per share compared to 45 cents per share in the year-ago period. Net revenues fell 4.7 percent to $116.6 million. For the second quarter, the company expects non-GAAP earnings of 37-45 cents per share on revenues of $146 million to $154 million. The results missed expectations, while the guidance surrounded the consensus estimate.
Verifone (PAY) reported second quarter non-GAAP income of 64 cents per share, higher than 58 cents per share last year, as net non-GAAP revenues climbed to $479 million from the year-ago quarter's $293 million. The results exceeded expectations. The company guided full year earnings to $2.60 to $2.66 per share and revenues to $1.9 billion to $1.925 billion. The Street estimates earnings of $2.66 per share on revenues of $1.92 billion.
CME Group (CME) announced a 5-for-1 split of its common stock in the form of a 400 percent stock dividend.
Acxiom (ACXM) announced that its board has increased the size of its stock repurchase authorization by $150 million.
The major Asian markets closed mixed, with the Japanese, Hong Kong, Malaysian and South Korean averages advancing, while the rest of the markets declined. The lackluster lead from Wall Street overnight weighed on sentiment, stifling the re-emergence of risk appetite.
Japan's Nikkei 225 average showed considerable volatility before closing modestly higher, with the index ending up 17.01 points or 0.20 percent at 8,580.
Consumer price inflation released by Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communication showed that core consumer prices rose 0.2 percent year-over-year in April. Economists had expected a more modest 0.1 percent increase. The headline inflation rate was 0.4 percent, in line with estimates.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index languished below the unchanged line for the bulk of the session before closing up 47.01 points or 0.25 percent at 18,713. Meanwhile, Australia's All Ordinaries surrendered its early gains and declined throughout the session.
The European averages are advancing for the second straight day, as relative calm dawned after the fears kicked up by Greece and Spain subsided. Financial stocks are advancing, as traders pick up beaten down stocks in the space.
On the economic front, confidence among German consumers is set to remain stable in June, according to the results of a survey by the GfK. The forward looking consumer confidence index for June came in at 5.7, unchanged from the revised reading for May.
Meanwhile, a survey by French statistical agency INSEE showed that its consumer confidence index for France rose 1 point to 90 in May compared to expectations for a reading of 88. Notwithstanding the increase, the index still stands before its long-term average of 100.

Over the past year, violence in their home country has forced many Iraqis to flee. Inside Iraq, about 2.2 million people are displaced — forced out of their homes, villages and towns. More than 2.2 million people have fled across borders into neighboring countries. Against this backdrop, Anne C. Richard argues that the United States should honor its historic tradition of aiding and providing sanctuary for those fleeing persecution and violence.
According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), 2,000 people were fleeing to Syria each day before Syria recently joined Jordan in closing its border to the influx.
The impact of the displacement crisis has been especially difficult on Syria and Jordan.
Jordan is hosting up to 750,000 Iraqi refugees, who now make up 24% of Jordan's population. Of course, adjusted for population size, that is the equivalent of 75 million people in the United States. And don't forget that Jordan already has many Palestinians living within its borders.
Syria has opened its educational and health systems to Iraqi refugees, and the Government of Jordan is allowing Iraqi school children to enroll in Jordanian schools.
Neither country has the resources to meet the needs of all the Iraqi refugees that they are hosting. Both countries need international help.
With a combined displaced population of over four million people, this represents one of the largest and fastest-growing humanitarian crises of our time. These refugees are targets of persecution due to their political opinions, ethnicities, religious affiliations and professions, to name just a few factors.
Many of the Iraqi refugees fear persecution because they worked closely
In Jordan, the majority of refugees are living in the country illegally. They have overstayed their visas — and, while some have resources, many have run through their savings. Most live in impoverished East Amman — or the cities of Zarqa and Irbid.
It's not unusual to find a family of six living in one room. The father and any adult sons may fear to leave the apartment and will not have jobs. They may rely on the women and children to go to the market, run errands — and make a little money.
Their greatest worry may be the health and education of their children.
Despite Jordan's generous official policy of admitting all refugee children to school this year, the local principal may in fact have turned the children away because of school overcrowding.
When someone falls ill, the family will not have money
Even if their present circumstances are very difficult, going back to Iraq is not an option. That's where they experienced killings, kidnappings and extortion — or saw that happen to someone close to them. At the same time, they must know that their chances of being resettled in a third country are slim.
The United States did not intend for this crisis to happen, but it has. And the United States should play a central role in addressing it. Other countries will base their own responses on ours.
On February 5, 2007, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice established a senior-level State Department task force on Iraqi refugees and displaced people. Various State Department announcements indicated that the number of Iraqis resettled in the United States by the end of September 2007 would be either (a) unlimited, (b) 25,000 or (c) 7,000 Iraqi refugees.
Despite these pledges, the United States resettled only 1,608 Iraqi refugees by September 30th. (Sweden, by comparison, took in 12,259 Iraqi asylum-seekers during the same period.) The U.S. State Department now plans to bring 12,000 Iraqis to the United States in fiscal year 2008.
Given the extent of the problem and the number of people who are suffering and in need of basic protection, however, this number of 12,000 people is clearly inadequate. It is an ambitious number only if a
What is needed instead, however, is to adopt this crisis as a top U.S. government priority. That means to provide robust aid to help other countries host refugees, to do more inside Iraq for the displaced — and to scale up operations in order to bring many more Iraqis to the United States.
We need something today on the order of what Presidents Ford and Carter did back in the late 1970s/early 1980s — the post-Vietnam War era — when they authorized and ensured the admission of hundreds of thousands of Southeast Asians per year to the United States.
Back then, 131,000 people were resettled between May and December 1975 alone, and the United States has taken in more than 900,000 Vietnamese refugees overall.
Similarly, the United States welcomed more than 600,000 Russian Jews during the Cold War — and took in more than 150,000 Bosnian refugees during the Bosnian conflict.
Recognizing that resettlement in another country will be a solution for only a minority of the cases, there is a pressing
In particular, aid is needed for the countries hosting the refugees. Jordan and Egypt (and to a lesser extent Lebanon) already benefit from sizable U.S. government aid programs — but much of this is military aid, and more needs to be done to help these countries manage the impact on their economies.
While Jordan's public schools were already overcrowded and dilapidated before the refugees arrived and rents might have increased anyway, price hikes, rent increases and other economic problems are being blamed on the influx of Iraqis.
The Government of Jordan calculates it provides $1 billion in goods and services to the Iraqi refugees. Some fear that Jordan's economy and society will become unstable. It is in our interest to provide help to fix Jordan's public schools, improve housing and upgrade health care.
Recent pieces of U.S. legislation — such as Senator Ted Kennedy's Refugee Crisis in Iraq Act and Representative Earl Blumenauer's Responsibility to Iraqi Refugees Act of 2007 — are critical in that they address the massive displacement of Iraqis since 2003 in a comprehensive way. These measures would ensure that the United States begins to meet its promise to protect Iraqi refugees.
A number of nongovernmental organizations,
Admittedly, there is a sharp contrast to the Bush Administration's requests to Congress to provide more assistance. The recent war funding package sent to Congress requested just $240 million to help the displaced Iraqis, on top of $35 million previously requested.
The $1.4 billion could be funded by Congress on an urgent basis in fall 2007/winter 2008 as part of a mid-year "supplemental" appropriations bill.
But even this significant package does not begin to approach what the United States has done in the past. President Bush should recognize and acknowledge this serious crisis and launch an ambitious program.
And it's time for Americans to tell their President and Congress that the United States must honor its historic tradition of aiding and providing sanctuary for those fleeing persecution and violence. We must help these desperate and vulnerable Iraqis and the countries that are helping them.

The Solo Welsh Championships were dominated by Speed Sails, taking the top 5 places!
33 helms arrived to a sunny force 3 at Corus Sailing Club, Andy took the first race, Chris Brown took the 2nd and Ian Maclean took 3rd.
Saturday brought a gusty force 4, Andy won both races ahead of Chris Brown.
The top 5 sailors using Speed sails showed good consistent boat speed through all conditions. Andy and Chris were using the Seldon D+ rig, Ian Maclean was using the Super spar M7 and Ian Fox and Dave Mitchell were using the Seldon Cumulus. Therefore proving that Speed Sails are working well and catering for all the different types of rigs.
Three of the top five sailors were using the Speed Sails Championship winning hulls: Ian Fox, Dave Mitchell and Andy. Andy was also using a hull that was 3 years old, still showing that the hulls are lasting and performing well over time!
Matt Mee and Chris Robinson attended the Merlin Rocket Silver Tiller open meeting at Rutland water.
Twenty nine teams went sailing in a sunny force 4-5 gusting 6. Matt and Chris showed excellent pace in the breezy stuff taking a win in the 1st and 3rd races.
Matt was making a guest appearance having a spare weekend from his 470 campaign.
Final results were Matt Mee & Chris Robinson, Mike Calvert & Chris Downham, Glen Truswell & Olly Turner, Matt Biggs & Rob Kennaugh.
The Gp14s travelled to Dovey Yacht club over the bank holiday weekend for their Welsh Championships. Attendance was down on previous years but the quality of the fleet was strong.
Racing was held out in the scenic Cardigan Bay for both days. Mike and Luke were showing good boat speed throughout the weekend, managing to take the Championship from Justin Jones & Lucy Evans/Chris Anderson, Simon Potts & Drew Nickless and Carl Jeffs & Jim Toothill. All sailors using Speed Sails.
'The Winning Edge'.

So I'm having a little bit of a hard time financially this month, and I was thinking I could try to sell some of the patches I make online as well as in person. I have examples below of some of the patches I currently have in stock. I can also make you a custom patch on custom fabric!
If you want one, message me telling me which one, and we'll work out a price. These range from $4-$8 dollars because they're all different sizes. Also, if you need me to measure any of them, I'd be happy to do so. My prices do not include shipping, but since they're so light I can ship them in a regular envelope so it shouldn't cost more than the price of a stamp or two!

In a dispute that some are calling a modern-day updating of the biblical Parable of the Ungrateful Servant, a minority-owned bank that benefited from federal bailout funds is threatening to foreclose on one of the nation's oldest black churches.
The 194-year-old Charles Street African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in Boston's Roxbury neighborhood could have its sanctuary forcibly auctioned off as early as this week unless a last-minute deal is reached.

Control issues
The major improvement of the new S4LJ204X01-Y040 chip over the one looking after the 470 is its Sata 3 6Gb/s interface. While old mechanical drives are hard pushed to get anywhere near the bandwidth limit of the original Sata specification, let alone Sata 3Gb/s, the same cannot be said for SSDs. The performance of solid state storage is now almost saturating the Sata 6Gb/s bandwidth limit – so much for future proofing.
A homegrown controller and all the chips are one side of the PCB
Just like the 470, all the rest of the 830 internals are Samsung as well; eight 32MB NAND 25nm (K9PFGY8U7A-HC K0) memory chips provide the capacity while 256MB of on-board DDR2 cache helps with handling small files. All the chips are built on to one side of the PCB, unlike its predecessor that used both side of the board.
ATTO results
First off, I performed some real life testing up against one of its Sata 3, the OCZ Vertex 3 equipped with the latest Sandforce controller. Installing Windows 7 64-bit from a USB DVD drive took 14mins for both drives. Installing MS Office 2010 Pro proved quicker on the Samsung at 4mins 20s, the OCZ trailing behind at 4mins 30s.
AS SSD and CrystalDiskMark 3 scores
When copying 100GB folder of mixed sizes and types of files the performance of the drives was more in pronounced. The Samsung 830 clocked up 9mins 50s, the OCZ Vertex 3 rolled in at 12mins 24s and just for good measure I checked out the Sata 2 Samsung 470 too, which took 23mins 15s.
Next page: Quick as a Flash?
It sounds like you have a dud (drive, cable, mobo socket, Rev A sandy bridge?). All my SSDs are well aged (mix of samsung, intel, corsair) and working fine, even without extra settings/maintenance.
Argh! Pet Peeve!
b = Bit
B = Byte
You have effectively reduced the reported capacities of the SSDs to an eighth of their actual size.
SSDs only lasting 14-18 months? What are you doing with them? I maintain a (small) fleet of notebooks which have all had SSDs for the past three years. All used as primary machines with no performance problems to date.
And as for size, 320 G on a notebook? If you are storing that much, you either are not portable (and why bother with a notebook or SSD) or you are not using half of it. SSD gives great storage/weight and particularly storage/power so it is ideal in a portable medium. On anything else, yeah, disks are much cheaper.
Still far too expensive
To tempt the masses away from using spinnig platters of some magnetic oxide.
Cut the price of the lower specced 256Gb (and upwards) drives and you will get a lot more sales.
With even basic laptops coming with 320Gb and more capacity HDD's these days, it is hard to swap one out with a 64Gb/128Gb SSD drive that costs the same as the 320Gb HDD

Shin Shin the panda has given birth to the first naturally born panda in Japan for almost 25 years.
Shin Shin and her partner Ri Ri arrived in Tokyo from China in February 2011 and were recorded mating earlier this year.
The new mother began showing signs of pregnancy such as a diminished appetite, more time sleeping and hormonal changes and this raised hopes that perhaps she was pregnant.
The much-awaited cub was delivered on July 5 at Tokyo's Ueno Zoo.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Court records reveal a lengthy criminal record for the man accused of breaking into LL Cool J's California home, where authorities say the actor-rapper subdued him.
Jonathan A. Kirby's criminal history includes a manslaughter conviction in Texas.
Kirby has yet to make a court appearance on a charge that he broke into the "NCIS: Los Angeles" actor's house early Wednesday. LL Cool J, whose real name is James Todd Smith, subdued Kirby, who was hospitalized with a broken nose, jaw and ribs.
Records show Kirby was convicted of voluntary manslaughter in Dallas in 1988 and sentenced to six years imprisonment. He was paroled the following year and has a string of convictions in Los Angeles beginning in 1990.
Prosecutors say Kirby should be treated as a third-strike offender and face 38 years to life in prison if convicted.
Smith and his family were unharmed.

I believe his implication was that the Start menu has to return in order for people to want to buy it. Microsoft isn't required to do what customers want, and... customers are not required to remain customers.

Back in business: Patrick Duffy and Larry Hagman |
TNT hopes to strike oil again with its reboot of Dallas, which starts Wednesday night at 9 p.m. ET (simulcast on Bravo in Canada).
Dallas the first time around was like Mad Men and American Idol all rolled into one. It was a big, fat, cheesy soap opera, but some A-list actors (Barbara Bel Geddes and Jim Davis played the founding family) and that rousing theme song just seemed to elevate it into Must See territory--on a Friday night!
Timing is everything and people were less cynical and more fascinated by the lifestyles of the rich and famous back then. The back-stabbing Ewing clan just seemed like the go-to family at the dawn of the Reagan years.
Not just TV Guide, but new magazines like People and new TV magazines like Entertainment Tonight just kept feeding the Dallas-mania.
Heck, I even did a "celebrity chef" story for TV Guide Canada on Ken Kercheval's popcorn farm. (Kercheval played J.R.`s nemesis Cliff Barnes). "Who the heck gets into farming these days," Hagman told his buddy Kercheval back before ethanol subsidies made farming chic again.
Hagman was a pretty tough get by the time I was actually writing anything for the Guide. He was already notorious for his "Silent Fridays" where he refused to speak at all.
Hagman, recovering from treatments for throat cancer, looked frail but was in fine form last January at the TV critics press tour in Pasadena, Calif. There with old pals Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray and the rest of the cast of the new Dallas, he talked about those "Silent Fridays" in the post session scrum.
He says he doesn't observe the talking ban anymore, "but I should because I talk too damn much on the weekends."
It was a doctor who told him to rest his voice on weekends so he literally stopped talking at all on Fridays--for 20 years. "I had to kind of mime," he says, saying the silent treatment actually helped him get rid of tension.
So did gallons of alcohol. Hagman is candid about his binge drinking, a lifelong addiction that nearly cost him his life. Only a liver transplant saved him.
Hagman is also famous among founding TCA members for a party he hosted at his house in Malibu 25 or so years ago. I wasn't there but former Toronto Star man Jim Bawden says it was one for the ages. There were so many people in Hagman's house the washroom blocked up and folks who had to go had to go next door--to Burgess Meredith's house! There they found the Penguin, awake and in his housecoat, sitting at his table with several critics having their own little party well into the night.
There's also a side story about one nosy reporter who went upstairs at Hagman's house and went through his sock and underwear drawer. Back then critics would go to any length to get to the bottom of a story.
Hagman never held a grudge, attending the 20th anniversary of the TCA Awards six summers ago in Los Angeles. With him at the time was his wife of 58 years Maj and former TCA president and Houston resident Anne Hodges.
It was fun to see him swarmed a bit like the old days at last January's press tour. The main difference between J.R. then and J.R. today is an obvious one. "I'm playing my age," says the 80 year old. "That slows you down a little bit but I'm still as mean as ever—maybe a little meaner because he's got more experience at it."
Could anybody else ever play J.R.? Somebody almost did when there was talk of a Dallas feature film--John Travolta!
"He's a wonderful actor," Hagman said last January, recalling that the two worked together on the film Primary Colors. "He could play the hell out of it, but…I'm better I think."
Producers now might see Travolta more as Miss Ellie.

The BC Cancer Agency for the North's chief oncologist, Dr. Suresh Katakkar, resigned in June amid concerns that he prescribed a non-approved treatment to a patient.
Katakkar came to Prince George in January 2011 and was the first medical oncologist to sign on to work at the BC Cancer Agency Centre for the North.
In an interview with the media in 2011, Katakkar said he left his lucrative practice in Tucson, Ariz. to make a difference and work in an environment that put patient welfare above profits.
"I love the people I'm working with and their devotion to the cause," Katakkar said at the time.
They are not the words of a man who would put a patient at risk needlessly or recklessly.
From her obituary in the Alaska Highway News in her hometown of Fort St. John, it's clear how important Holly Hill, the patient in question, was to those around her.
She was a granddaughter, daughter, sister, cousin, niece, friend, coworker and wife.
"Holly felt shed done her job if she was able to make someone laugh or smile," the obituary said.
She was, "a quirky spirit who always had a song in her heart, and for her entire all-too-short life, [put] others first."
A happy, otherwise healthy 33-year-old, Hill deserved every chance at survival modern medicine could provide her. Katakkar appears to have believed that enough to risk his career, and the wrath of the BC Cancer Agency, by providing a treatment not approved by the agency.
Hill's final blog entry from March 3, just a month and eight days before her death, is a painful account of a brave young woman mortally ill with stomach cancer.
In the blog entry, Hill wrote about the course of treatment Katakkar was prescribing her.
"I also hadn't seen Dr. Katakkar in the flesh in two weeks, so I didn't know if he was planning at this point to continue on for a second round of the every two-week compromise chemo... or if he was planning on switching me to yet another new regime. (The only problems that come along with having a brilliant [and] exceptionally busy world-class oncologist - I'll take them any day of the week!)," Hill wrote.
Later in the same entry, after having had a discussion with Katakkar, she wrote:
"A new regime, but since it's not a nice documented BC Cancer Agency approved formula, I'm not going to go into any details. Dr. Katakkar is hoping hitting the cancer more frequently at a lower dose will mean the ascites don't have time to build up again. We are hopeful too."
Hill's account, written in her own words before her death, seems to support Katakkar's own account of events: that he was struggling to find a treatment to save his 33-year-old patient, so resorted to a non-approved treatment with Hill's knowing consent.
"...Dr. Katakkar gave me another pep talk on Friday. He still believes I can beat this. He still has hope. So even though I've reached [and] passed my breaking point a few times this past week, I'm determined to believe too," she concluded. "Thank you all for your continued warm wishes. Love you all."
It seems unlikely that Hill would have wanted to see the doctor who gave her the hope to carry on cast out from the profession for his actions.
Certainly her family has supported Katakkar, thanking him by name in her obituary.
"He deserves to be treated far better than that," Hill's father, former Prince George-Peace River MP Jay Hill said. "I think the BC Cancer Agency needs to explain themselves."
There is something fundamentally wrong in BC's public health care system if it is willing to let a young woman die, rather than allow her to knowingly - and at her family's expense - take her chances with an alternative treatment which might save her life.
And it's doubly wrong to punish doctors who push the envelope to find the best treatment for patient's whose lives are on the line.
It will take a group of medical experts to determine if Katakkar made the right call. But there is no doubt that he, with Hill and her family's support, should have had the freedom to try his best to save her.

What followed was an inability to put down my hook knife. There was just something about being able to carve hardwood like it was butter, scraping out the inside of the bowl and being left with these long, curled up shavings of walnut, that put my mind at ease. The spiraled shavings looked like chocolate and filled up my work tables and my living room coffee table like I was baking an elaborate cake. I wouldn't even sweep them up, because the more that were there, piling up, the more accomplished I felt. I started calling them Therapy Spoons. Need some head-shrinking? Start carving a spoon instead. Seriously. Do it.
Yes, I carved a LOT of spoons {I've since banned myself from carving more for the time being}. What am I going to do with all of them? Well, I plan on keeping a few, and giving away the rest to friends and family. These spoons are an amazing thing to have on hand -- did someone do something nice for you? Here! Have a spoon! Did a friend invite you over for a really lovely brunch? Here! Have a spoon! Oh what, it's your birthday? Here! Have a spoon!
So, to appease, I'm giving you a spoon. This spoon, to be exact.
TO ENTER: Leave a comment here, not anonymously of course. If you have a name that's fairly common please leave your last name, or something distinguishable, so I'm not left with eight Kate's and fifteen Erin's {ya know what I mean}. Entry will be open for one week, ending Monday, May 27th at 11 am EST.
TO WIN: I will draw a random number {out of a pretty wooden bowl of course!} and the corresponding comment number will be the winner! I will announce the winner on my blog and on instagram next Monday.
{Oh, and I forgot to add that this is open internationally as well. I'm happy to pay for shipping anywhere unless it is somehow ridiculously expensive! In which case a humble Paypal request will be in order. Capiche?}
Fun Fun! I love giveaways! Good luck all!

Oh they have to be expecting ridiculous ratings for Game 4.
And I also say they have to be hoping Pittsburgh wins tonight so they can milk it for at least 2 more days

He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye

No one knows quite how he does it but it's true they say
He's the master of going faster. -George Harrison
IMO, that was just a chickensh!t hit. You should never leave your skates to blindside an opponent. I hope Torres gets a lot more than a game or two for that one.
BTW, it seemed to me that the referees' called eveything during the season and now they seem reluctant to blow the whistle. Am I wrong?
Have a very blessed day!
Here we go...Flyers - Pens on NBCSports and Rangers - Senators on CNBC. I'm as nervous as the proverbial cat in a roomful of rocking chairs.
@#$!* Bryzgalov...stop a darn puck! Flyers too passive.

Both goalies in Philly look like Crap so far
Rangers have a 2 goal lead already.
Well, the refs in Philly have made it clear they are going to call everything. Flyers 2 PP goals, back up 3-2 still in the first. Phew...
4-3 Pens end of one, Pens start 2nd on the PP. Looks like pond hockey. If I'm Lavi I really ought to think about starting Bobrovsky next period. He cannot be worse than Bryz.
Ugh...6-3 Pens now. Bob in goal, but this one is over IMHO.
Holy jumpin' jellybeans...Bob wasn't the answer. 9-3 Pens. Complete embarassment, terrible effort.

This game was the anti-Game 3 from the start in that there was no point where I was really enjoying the game. The call 17 seconds in on Kennedy was a joke, just as bad was the awful call on Malkin on the face off. It continued with Read being given two minutes for a shoulder check. Either way, this game has lived up to what was expected - a continual PP for one team or the other.
The best action in this series was when it was 5-5. There's been what, 3 minutes total in this game?
And Slim - any questions about Bobrovsky now? Sullivan and Staal's goals both show exactly why he's a 10-games a year back up. Shoot high and if it's on net it's in. He's Niitymaki but worse.
I'm just seriously stunned right now. I have no words.
I'm telling you, D...he was a Penguin killer earlier in the season. But, you see a ton more of him than I do. I guess you're still looking for a replacement for Beezer. I loved him. It's not a secret that I have an affinity for the goalies.
Ugh, here we go. Let's see if 9 is enough....
I'm almost ready to see them both sit and start Leighton. He's with the team and did get to the Finals in 2010. Complete turnaround from the first three games, Flyers with no defensive prescence, passes aren't crisp, just a terrible effort in a close-out game at home.
For the first time in the series, nagging doubt about the Flyers closing out the series is in my mind. Part of that is Philly Paranoia, but with the series going back to Pittsburgh, Neal and Martin back, Malkin apparently back to normal, no Flyer goalies...tough to be overly confident.
Pittsburgh 10
Philly 3
Man that Roethlisburger is some QB
Please don't call him Beezer, particularly during the playoff time. Just brings back bad memories of giving up soft short-side goals against Toronto.....
I don't think there needs to be a replacement for Bryz. He was outstanding the second half of the season. It's just that he has to find his game for this team to succeed. And a lot of that is the Flyers playing a sound game in front of him (no differently than Fleury. How many of the goals he gave up did not have him in the splits? Maybe the couple fluke goals, but those can often be the consequence of not being compact because the goals being given up required him going post-to-post.)
akh - don't forget they tried the Leighton route last year and it blew up in Laviolette's face.
After tonight, I'm honestly going to predict a 3-2 final in Game 5. I think Fleury is starting to get confident and was looking much more settled in the second half of the game. I also think that giving up 10 goals will have the Flyers playing an almost Tampa-style trap.
I should have put the winky guy on that line, but honestly...could he do worse than this?
Fleury is looking more confident, but he's facing almost no shots, no traffic. Flyers are 2 steps slow, playing with no spirit. I can't express how disappointed I am in this performance.
Well, nice to see the Penguins actually play tonight. You're back home in Pitt on Friday. Continue the momentum.
Time to watch the end of the Rangers/Ottawa game...They are going into OT.
LA leads Vancouver 1-0 in the first. Goal to Kopitar.
Oh, we heard that word over the air in the 3rd period during the Pens game...
Now I'm hoping LA takes out Vancouver so we can quit hearing about D.Sedin being out of the lineup. Plus,I like Jonathan Quick. Watched quite a bit of Kings games this season.
Vancouver survives. Onto game 5.
FWIW - One more view on the NHL's violence by one of the better sports writers in Beantown.

Art photography book of UNMATA symbol tattoos from dancers and friends, worldwide.
SIGIL, INK. is a fine art photography book of UNMATA and UNMATA inspired tattoos, and the stories of the people who have felt compelled to imprint this symbol on their bodies.
A Sigil (from the Latin Sigillum meaning 'seal') is defined as a symbol used in magic and occult practices. It is a pictorial representation of the magicians desired outcome, a symbol infused with the will of its creator, charged with a purpose. Thus it is exceedingly appropriate that Amy Sigil, director of the internationally recognized dance troupe, UNMATA, should have serendipitously forged such a sigil. It started from humble beginnings in a small dance studio in Sacramento many years ago...
The UNMATA symbol itself is the combination of a waxing and waning moon facing each other, but the significance lies in the empty space in between, representing infinite possibilities.
The name and the symbol have grown beyond the edges of the local dance community and have extended around the globe. Each person who has embraced the symbol has a different story, a unique inspiration and affinity towards the symbol. To each person, that empty space of infinite possibility calls to them with a different song, in a different voice.
This book is a tribute to all of those people who have chosen to adorn their skin with a symbol that brings all of their diversity together, bound only by a waning and a waxing moon.
We've collected photographs and stories from people all around the world who want to share their connection to the UNMATA symbol, and the unique imprint it has left not only on their skins, but in their hearts.
We have an extremely talented designer with 20 years of experience currently placing these images in the context of a photography book, alongside the stories we've collected from each individual participant describing the personal struggles and triumphs which have inspired them.
The next step is to order copies of the book. The specs for the book will be 8.5 x 8.5 hardcover full color glossy.
We've priced out printing and production costs, and we'd like to raise enough money to be able to order a minimum of 125 books (plus S&H) by October, which is when our 10-year anniversary dance show happens. The more donations we receive, the more copies we will be able to order and make available to you.
Please live a little of the UNMATA spirit and help us make our project a reality!
Thank you!

I am trying to automate a process which opens an excel spreadsheet within ACCESS. I am trying to turn off the macro security popup warning that comes up. I have the security level set to medium to give me a choice to enable or disable but in this particular instance I would prefer to avoid the message all together. Is this possible through code? Additional Info: When I open the file with out the code I get a choice to enable or disable the macro. When I launch it through access I don't get a enable or disable, I get a yes or no popup. Also, the file really does not contain a macro but it does have a few lines of code in the "ON OPEN EVENT".
Thanks for any help someone could offer.

Tampa DUI charges may be more than just a speed bump if you don't take quick action. Even if this is your first DUI arrest, Florida's drunk driving laws call for jail time, fines, community service and loss of license. Then, you may have to deal with the lingering effects of a DUI on your record, which may make it difficult for you to find and keep work.
But you do have options when fighting a DUI arrest in Tampa. Many people in this situation call on Tampa drunk driving attorneys for help with dealing with their case. Indeed, they may be a powerful ally in the fight to protect your license and your future.
For a free case evaluation with a Tampa DUI lawyer near you, simply complete the free form on this page. We'll connect you right away so you can start getting answers.
A Tampa drunk driving attorney can examine the state laws and see how they apply to an particular case.
DUI cases often aren't as cut and dried as one might think. Everything from the reasons why you were pulled over to the manner in which evidence was collected may come into play. Your previous driving record may affect the penalties you face, and there may be means to plea bargain or negotiate for lesser charges.
While your charges may be intimidating, it's important to remember that charges don't guarantee convictions. However, if you do not take action, you could facing tough penalties. For a first time drunk driving conviction you may see:
If you already have a DUI record then the charges go up. Florida DUI laws may require the use of an ignition interlock device on your car.
