Starting Up a Company
I'm looking in to starting up my own production company doing promotional videos as well as coporate videos and live events. Any advice on where to start? I'm looking at getting the Canon XL-2 as well as the Canon 20D Digital Camera. Any advice would be great.
Well, you don't start with a camera shopping spree.
You start with research into the market, consultations with an accountant and lawyer, forming a business plan, figuring out the ture expenses and costs of the business, raising the capital tyo cover those, generating the leads... there's many steps before the fun shopping parts, and even then, I would counsel you not to buy any gear like cameras you first year, but to rent such items only as jobs come up. It's a business first. The only tool you should need to buy up front is a phone. Make the first call to your local SCORE office or other business assistance organization.
I would agree with Mark...everything but the SCORE thing. Things may be different today and certainly in different parts of the country, but make sure SCORE has someone familiar with technical/creative services...a former toilet tissue baron won't be of much help, so pay attention to the background these guys bring to the table.
You don't have a business when you have a camera, you have a business when you have a client. I did the big facility loan/purchase thing when I started, but even with a few clients lined up, knowing what I know now I would never do that again. It was like a financial albatross around my neck in the "salad years"...
Rent ANYTHING that only gets used when you have a project. It will be obvious to you at what point it will be more economical to own something. Right now just starting out, it isn't likely you'll have gotten the camera to pay for itself by the time cameras are available that are so much better and cheaper that it will be a liability.
Rental houses usually have the latest stuff. It actually gives you an edge, even if you're established, to simply bring the equipment needed for the job to the project than trying to make the project right for the gear you own.

The only other thing I would add to all of this great info is to align yourself with other in the industry around you who can provide services you can't. In my situation, and I do a lot of work for fortune 500 companies, I concentrate on producing and post. My skill set lies in editing and client interface, so I bring in others to do the acquisition, scripting, VO etc... Of course I am always there to direct the efforts, but it also frees me up to baby sit the client.
Corporate clients can be a very strange animal that feeds on your time, the more you can give them the better. If there are some good camera and lighting guys in your area I would strongly suggest that you hook up with them. The mark up I place on others services is the easiest money I make on a production.
An added extra benefit is that you don't have to worry about the new wizbang camera that's out. That becomes your camera guys problem. If you need that camera for a shot you tell him/her and they make it happen. Lastly, remember the client won't remember that you shot the piece on an SDX-900 in cool 24p mode for film look, but they will remember if you were never available to answer their questions because you were to busy setting up that SDX-900.
Good luck, it's a great way to make a living!!

Do all the things these guys say. Get yourself confident that you can do a job. But don't spend a penny. Then get a client. No money = no company. That is the tricky bit.
I don't think that purchasing a camera is such a terrible idea. I'm going to go out on a limb here: Based on the small amount you have written my hunch is that you have very little experience in producing professional quality corporate video. And my next assumption is that you do not have a sufficiently good corporate video showreel to go out and compete for work on an even footing (If I am wrong the I humbly beg your forgiveness).
By scraping together enough cash to buy a basic three chip camera you can be out there working every day. Shooting things on spec, volunteering on short films, winning your first clients by offering extremely low rates. Building up a decent showreel, and experience. All things you would struggle to do if you had to go to rental house before doing anything.
While the conventional wisdom is to produce a business plan, and there's nothing wrong with doing so, the reality of the situation is that most people who are successfully running video production companies (IMO) did not start by doing a business plan. They grabbed whatever opportunities came their way to get experience and build a good reel.
I do not believe there is one right way to do things. I offer this approach as one of a number of alternatives.
Good luck.

The VV Inn
0.1. Death's Servant
1. Vampire Vacation
2. The Hunt
3. Big Game
3.5. Death Times Two - Kindle
C.J. Ellisson
| Website | Twitter | Facebook | Amazon |
Synopsis (Goodreads):
The V V Inn has a ghost problem. When the lurking specters draw the attention of Constantine, head of Grim Reaper Services, he calls in the only local who can return the remote resort to its former tranquility, Lisa Carron—resident Alaskan reaper.Thoughts on Death Times Two: Soooo.... I've pretty much devoured the entire V V Inn series in a week and I wasn't disappointed IN THE LEAST to close out my reading binge with Asa, Vivian's hunky security vamp and total sweetheart. I mean, sure he's had to kill a vamp or two in his time with Viv and her crew but that's what a security vamp has to do sometimes when he works for a powerful vampire master. RIGHT?
Still new to the death gig, Lisa accepts the job. After all, how much trouble could one ghost be? Once at the hotel, she learns that not only is the inn full of the dearly departed, she'll also be working for vampires. Throw in Asa, a young vamp hot enough to melt the Arctic ice, and Lisa realizes she's way out of her element.
Asa didn't know what to expect when told a reaper would be working on the property, but Lisa certainly wasn't it. Blond and curvy, she's very easy on the eyes. Tasked with helping her, Asa soon realizes that not only can she provide the dead a peaceful passing, but offer him solace in a way no other woman can.
As a word of warning, I haven't read any of the Grim Reality series. Lisa's a new character to me, but from what I saw of her, I thought she was pretty fun.
I liked that we got to revisit some of the earlier events in the series as Lisa, reaper and hockey mom, meets and reaps the various individuals who have kicked it at Vivian's swanky vampire resort. Frankly, there's been a lot of death there, recently. Violent death. Which means these individuals aren't always ready to move on.
Throw in some good, old fashioned lust between Asa and Lisa, some pirate booty (heh. I said booty!), and Lisa's enterprising way of keeping those pesky ghosts from possessing her and I had a ton of fun. Far less bloody than the previous books in the series, but still chock-full of sexy good times! *thumbs up*

Every dental facility where oral moderate sedation, parenteral conscious sedation, deep sedation and/or general anesthesia are administered must have a facility permit from the College. The College inspects facilities as part of the application process. There are two types of facility permits. It is possible to hold both a type A and B depending on your requirements.
Dentists can access a list of approved practitioners (dentists or physicians) by logging in to their member resource centre account.
Facility Permits are non-transferable. If the ownership of the practice changes or the practice moves, the Facility Permit will be cancelled.
Initially, and then every three years, the College must inspect all dental offices that apply for/hold a facility permit to ensure that the facility is in compliance with the College's Standard of Practice.
Checklists of required equipment and emergency drugs are available for each level of sedation along with sample sedation records.
Click to view/download checklists for inspection.
Any deficiencies noted during the inspection will be posted on the public register under the name of the facility permit holder (physician-related deficiencies are posted against the facility permit holder) or the name of the dentist authorized to administer sedation and/or general anesthesia. Postings will be removed from the public register once the College receives the appropriate documentation that the problems have been corrected.
Inspection Review Forms and Chart Review Forms
Inspectors use these forms when reviewing your facility and charts. Assess your facility and charts before your inspection to determine if they are in compliance with the Standard.
Inspection review forms
Chart review forms
Level of Sedation
It is your responsibility to maintain the level of sedation or GA for which you are registered and/or authorized to provide. Record patients' level of sedation experienced at regular intervals. As an example, the Ramsay Sedation Scale is one measure. Use any valid sedation scale and ensure you document the scale used on the sedation/GA record.
Sample Sedation/GA Records
Select the appropriate sedation/GA record that applies to your authorization and determine if you are documenting all that is required.
If you provide minimal sedation, it is strongly recommended that your documentation is consistent with the Sample Oral Moderate Sedation Record.
You must maintain a drug register to record and account for all narcotics, controlled drugs and targeted substances that are kept on-site. The register should contain the name and quantity of the drug purchased, the date and location of purchase, and the invoice number. Keep it in a secure area in the office, preferably with the drugs, and reconcile it on a routine basis, depending on the nature of the practice and reasonable clinical judgement.
Whenever drugs in the above-mentioned classes are used or dispensed, a record containing the name of the patient, the quantity used or dispensed, and the date should be entered in the register for each drug. Each entry should be initialed or attributable to the person who made the entry. Record this same information in the patient record, along with any instructions for use.
Any dentist or physician who wishes to administer oral moderate sedation, parenteral conscious sedation, deep sedation and/or general anesthesia in a dental office or facility must apply to the College to have their training reviewed and approved.
The authorization expires on March 31st of each calendar year, regardless of when in the year it was initially issued.

Ruby Bridges in Three Forms
Lesson 3 of 10
Objective: SWBAT watch a play and a dramatic presentation of the same story and compare it to the text in which the story appeared.
Big Idea: In this technological age, students must possess the skills to evaluate diverse media presentations of the same subject matter.
My school invited a touring children's theater who puts on a play about Ruby Bridges. To prepare for the play, we had read the book, The Story of Ruby Bridges by Robert Coles and worked on text dependent questions.
When we get back to the classroom, I hand out a book that I've put together to help the students keep straight all the forms of media presentations we're going to study around Ruby Bridges. After the play, we return to the classroom and I show them the first two pages- the book and the play. I tell the students that for homework they will complete the pages for the book and the play and that we're going to watch one more short presentation of Ruby's story.
This is a dramatic presentation- I called it an "Oration" in the student book.
A Note here: If you don't have access to a play, you can still use the student book in the resource section- just leave the play page out when you copy it. I included the link to the Columbus Children's Theater for information- perhaps your city has a similar offering.
Resources (5)
After we watch the dramatic presentation, I show the students the page for the "Oration". It is on this page that they will record their thoughts of the video they just saw and compare it to the other two forms they've seen. I explain each part to them- the one that gets them is the mood so I have to give them some words for mood- serious, lighthearted, fun, scary, etc. The only other section they were confused on is the "More like" and "Less like".
Once I explained the page, I set them off to work. While the students work, I make myself available for questions. If students finish recording their thoughts on the oration, I let them begin their homework.

MONTGOMERY — Attorney General Luther Strange and lawyers for Greenetrack went back to the Supreme Court on Monday trying to win their arguments over the stay of a judge's order to return seized bingo machines to Greenetrack.
MONTGOMERY — Attorney General Luther Strange and lawyers for Greenetrack went back to the Supreme Court on Monday trying to win their arguments over the stay of a judge's order to return seized bingo machines to Greenetrack.
Strange's office and attorneys for Greenetrack submitted briefs after Friday's Supreme Court stay of Special Circuit Court Judge Houston Brown's order for Strange to return 376 bingo machines seized from Greenetrack.
Brown ruled Aug. 3 Strange had to return the machines. Friday, Strange won a stay of Brown's order.
Lawyers for the two sides don't even agree on the issue.
Strange believes the machines are illegal gambling machines for use in violation of state law. Strange argued that he'll lose the chain of custody, which means the machines possibly couldn't be used in a future proceeding because he would lose control of them as evidence.
Greenetrack attorneys argue the search warrant used to seize the machines was based on inaccurate information from a law enforcement agent who worked for Strange. Between Aug. 3 and Friday, Strange had the opportunity to get another search warrant based on accurate information, Greenetrack attorneys said.
Greenetrack attorneys said the state will not suffer "irreparable harm" if Greenetrack gets the machines back.
The "matter before this honorable court" relates to one issue only, a search warrant, "period," Greenetrack lawyers Charlanna W. Spencer and John M. Bolton III said.
The issue is unsettled. Deputy Attorney General Sonny Reagan II said the court could rule without oral arguments or it could ask lawyers to defend their positions in court.
Strange sent undercover agents in April to Greenetrack to look at new bingo machines installed after some 600 had been confiscated last year by then-Gov. Bob Riley's Task Force on Illegal Gambling.
Agents testifying at a search warrant hearing said the machines looked and played like illegal slot machines, not traditional bingo machines.
Greenetrack lawyers countered that the machines are covered by local constitutional Amendment 743 that authorizes electronic bingo in Greene County.
The Alabama Supreme Court has ruled that bingo in Alabama must follow six guidelines to be legal.
Complicating the argument was a Friday report by a Montgomery television station that the Supreme Court had issued a stay even, as it turned out, before a vote had been taken.
Spencer and Bolton said the premature report, later retracted, was reminiscent of last year in which Riley's task force apparently had information before attorneys did.
Retired Justice Gorman Houston last year had court employees sign affidavits attesting they didn't leak confidential information that he said he believed was leaked before its official release.
Spencer and Bolton asked new Chief Justice Charles Malone, Gov. Robert Bentley and U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance in Birmingham to investigate the latest alleged breach based on the Friday television report.
Supreme Court Clerk Robert Esdale said the television station told him it had misconstrued an unrelated Greene County Supreme Court decision that had been released at 10 a.m. Friday with the stay that hadn't even been voted on.
Esdale said the stay was released electronically at 3:39 p.m.

That Day
"Well get up and turn it on" he said, "looks like we're at war. Not sure with whom just yet but I guess we'll find out soon enough." He told me that a plane had flown into the World Trade Center and it seemed intentional from the latest reports. We talked for another few minutes before we said goodbye and I began wondering if I should keep my son home from school.
As I watched the first tower being consumed in an inferno live on CNN, another plane slammed into the second tower at 500 miles per hour.
3,650 days have passed since then. It has been an unimaginable ordeal for countless and mostly unheralded heroes from that day on, and the fight continues against the animals who struck that day.
And now I pray for Western civilization every day.

"Everyone Should Read Them."
The thousands upon thousands of e-mails released today show a very engaged Governor Sarah Palin being the CEO of her state. The e-mails detail a Governor hard at work. Everyone should read them.This is happening because the Washington political elite is terrified of what this woman would do as president, because she's already successfully done it at the state level, and that is to give government back to the people.
So go ahead and dig through those emails, folks. Can't wait to read them.

Barack Obama's Wars
President Obama Makes War on American Intelligence Professionals
Holder's politically-motivated "investigation" has now been going on for over two years. The CIA employees who tried to defend their country, strictly following the advice they were given by Holder's own Department of Justice, are left wondering whether they will face criminal prosecution. This is an absolute outrage, and it is Barack Obama's fault. If he doesn't think that federal employees should go to jail for defending this country to the best of their abilities, consistent with the legal advice they were given by the Department of Justice, he should get a new Attorney General. Since he hasn't done so, we can only conclude that Obama is deliberately making war on America's intelligence community.President Obama "Declares War on American Energy Workers"
All presidents deal with tough circumstances; it is the nature of the job. But we expect them to try, at least, to make things better for the United States and its citizens. When a president favors Brazilian workers over American workers, and puts American taxpayers' dollars behind that preference, what are we to conclude?Via National Review Online:
President Obama's Stealth War On Israel
The continuing influence of Obama's pro-Palestinian sentiments is the best way to make sense of the president's recent tilt away from Israel. This is why supporters of Israel should fear Obama's reelection. In 2013, with his political vulnerability a thing of the past, Obama's pro-Palestinian sympathies would be released from hibernation, leaving Israel without support from its indispensable American defender.President Obama's War On The Rule Of Law
Punishing enemies and rewarding friends — politics Chicago style — seems to be the unifying principle that helps explain the Obamacare waivers, the NLRB action against Boeing, and the IRS's gift-tax assault on 501(c)(4) donors.Via The Greely Gazette:
They look like examples of crony capitalism, bailout favoritism, and gangster government.
And they don't look like the rule of law.
President Obama's Stealth War On The Second Amendment
On March 30, the 30th anniversary of the assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan, Jim Brady, who sustained a debilitating head wound in the attack, and his wife, Sarah, came to Capitol Hill to push for a ban on the controversial "large magazines." Brady, for whom the law requiring background checks on handgun purchasers is named, then met with White House press secretary Jay Carney. During the meeting, President Obama dropped in and, according to Sarah Brady, brought up the issue of gun control, "to fill us in that it was very much on his agenda," she said.
"I just want you to know that we are working on it," Brady recalled the president telling them. "We have to go through a few processes, but under the radar."

Netanyahu's Speech
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu electrified Congress with this eloquent speech in which he makes the overwhelming case for Israel against the savages surrounding it. A crucial point:
"Of the 300 million Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa, only Israel's Arab citizens enjoy real democratic rights. Now, I want you to stop for a second and think about that. Of those 300 million Arabs, less than one-half of 1 percent are truly free and they're all citizens of Israel. This startling fact reveals a basic truth: Israel is not what is wrong with about the Middle East; Israel is what is right about the Middle East."Having watched it live on Fox, I agree with Scott Johnson's evaluation; this was a great, Churchillian speech. Rush liked it too:
Context: Obama Lied, AIPAC Died
Throughout this speech I kept shouting at the TV, "Run, Bibi, run!" He-he-he. We can find a birth certificate for you somewhere, Philadelphia, Hawaii, or what have you. He spoke without a prompter. He's got some notes. He leans on the podium. What we're hearing, what you see, here is somebody who's very at home behind the microphone. He's entirely comfortable. It's easy when you actually believe what you are saying. ...
There are a lot of things in this speech. It went on for about 45 minutes, and I really do not want to try to paraphrase or repeat it. You really have to hear this speech as given.
It's a lesson in commitment. It is a lesson in confidence. It is a lesson in statecraft and leadership. This was an epic, epic speech. It was a lesson for Republicans in dealing with President Obama, even though all Netanyahu did was praise President Obama today. That's all he did. There was nothing partisan in the speech whatsoever other than his obvious love and support for his nation of Israel. But it was filled with humor, it was filled with goose bump seriousness. It ran the emotional gamut, it ran the intellectual gamut. The timing was flawless. Just a fabulous speech. The lesson that is there for people is to say what you mean, to say it confidently, to be fearless, and don't feel the need to excuse what you think or make excuses for how you feel.

"If you're complaining about the price of gas and you're only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know," Obama said laughingly. "You might want to think about a trade-in."In other words, if you don't have the money to buy the gasoline you need, then go buy a new car. Which, when you think about it, pretty much sums up His approach to the economy.
There is a subtext here as well that is worth noting, and that is the AP's initial reportage, which they subsequently completely scrubbed from their site in order to protect their Hero. Here is the screen cap from Instapundit:
Here's the vid, on the off chance you can stand listening to this walking disaster area for even one more second:

Stanley Kurtz: The Real "Power" Behind Obama's Libyan Adventure
Read the rest here: Samantha Power's Power
Knowing what Samantha Power wants reveals a great deal about Barack Obama's own ideological commitments. It's not just a question of whether he shares Power's long-term internationalist goals, although it's highly likely that he does. Power's thinking also represents a bridge of sorts between Obama's domestic- and foreign-policy aspirations. Beyond that, Power embodies a style of pragmatic radicalism that Obama shares. Both Obama and Power are skilled at placing their ultimate ideological goals just out of sight, behind a screen of practical problem-solving...
Obama may not have been completely frank about the broader ideological goals behind this intervention, and yet the president's address to the nation, as far as it went, was largely accurate. Fundamentally, our Libyan operation is a humanitarian action, with no clear or inevitable military-strategic purpose beyond that. There is enormous risk here, and no endgame. We might take strategic advantage of our restricted humanitarian action. But we might not, and, in any case, we are under no obligation to do so. For all we know, many of those we're defending with American aircraft and missiles could be our dedicated terrorist enemies. From the standpoint of traditional calculations of national interest, this war is something akin to madness. Yet without fully articulating it (and that reticence is intentional), Obama and Power are attempting to accustom us to a whole new way of thinking about war, and about America's place in the world...
Samantha Power has a lot to teach us about Barack Obama. She herself draws analogies between the need to redistribute wealth via health-care coverage and the need to divide military and diplomatic power (and, implicitly, wealth) more evenly through the international system. Power regularly invokes arguments for international law derived from America's Founders and the West's great liberal thinkers, as if her goal were the founding of a government of the world. In truth, that is what Power is up to, even if she sees her project as a long-term collective effort necessarily extending beyond her own lifetime.
The novel doctrine of "responsibility to protect," which Power means the Libyan action to enshrine in international law, could someday be used to justify military intervention to impose a "two-state solution" on Israel (apparently this is one of Power's longstanding goals, although she now disavows it). The International Criminal Court, which Power has long defended, may someday enable the leftist Europeans who run it to place American soldiers and politicians on trial for supposed war crimes. The Obama administration's troubling acquiescence in the development of sweeping international prohibitions on "aggression" may one day make virtually any use of force not pre-approved by the United Nations subject to international sanctions. These are the long-term goals of Power's policies, although they are seldom confessed or discussed.

The Goldstone Report Fiasco
He lent his name to a lengthy report issued under the auspices of the United Nations Human Rights Council. The report accused Israel of massive war crimes in the war Israel waged against Hamas in 2008-2009, commenced by Israel after Hamas and friends had fired more than 12,000 rockets at Israel (every one of which was criminal).Johnson evokes the comments of John Podhoretz:
Jonathan Tobin, Ron Radosh, Jeffrey Goldberg and Melanie Philips also figure, as does Peter Berkowitz. Read it all.
That Richard Goldstone did not know in 2009 that Hamas is a terrorist monstrosity which functions parasitically off civilian populaces while Israel is a beacon of war-fighting restraint in a manner practically unknown in the course of human history suggests even more plainly than the report itself that he is a dupe, a fool, a clown, and a worldwide embarrassment. Not to mention a special kind of reprehensible and appalling figure of inglorious, hideous shame to his own people through the delivery and promulgation of a false document that helped anti-Semites everywhere feel themselves justified.
He was then, and is now, an entirely despicable public figure--and so is his op-ed, by the way, which continues to act as though it is appropriate to draw parallel inferences about Hamas and the state of Israel. It would be right for world Jewry that his name be hereafter summoned as we summon Benedict Arnold's, or Tokyo Rose's.

13 Things That Scare Kittens
In the wild, cats are dangerous predators. On the opposite end of the bravery spectrum, baby housecats are frightened of just about everything. They don't call them "fraidy cats" for nothing, I suppose. Here are 13 things that scare kittens, and the videos to prove it:
You never know when apples… will strike!
Bunny Rabbits
Good thing the cat's afraid, or this would not end well.
Don't worry, you won't get sucked inside, little kitten… unless you've been bad.
Toy Balls
Careful now. It might be full of poison. Keep your distance.
Tennis Balls
Game – Set – Watch Out!
Fake Cats
"YOU get him," thinks the cat.
Real Cats
According to the uploader, the kitten is scared of the cat in the background. Who can blame her?
Their Own Reflection
The two cats are strategically well-matched.
Video Cameras
Wait for it…
Being On Television
Or maybe it's just being on Jonathan Ross' show. Science has yet to determine the answer.
Sudden Touches
Calling this kitten "jumpy" would be an understatement.
Hold on, kitten! Hold on!!!
To be fair, I also do this.

WASHINGTON — He wouldn't be a Carpenter if he didn't know the drill.
There is a better chance the Cardinals' Chris Carpenter will get hit by a bus on his way to the ballpark today than he will succumb to emotion when taking the mound against the Nationals in Game 3 of the NLDS.
"One, it's called experience, and it happens where you're going to get excited," Carpenter said yesterday. "This is what I live for. I woke up this morning — it's the day before and I got that going in my stomach already. I couldn't wait to get here and talk to [the media], do my thing. It's an exciting time."
With the series tied 1-1, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny couldn't have asked for a better candidate to start a crucial swing game than his 37-year-old warhorse, who was among the team's heroes last October.
The climax came in Carpenter's third start of the World Series against the Rangers, when he earned the Game 7 victory by allowing two earned runs over six innings. Carpenter finished the postseason 4-0 with a 3.25 ERA in receiving a second world championship ring in six years.
But the right-hander never really got to take a victory lap, as he missed most of the 2012 season, first resting a right shoulder that had nerve-related damage and then recovering from July surgery to correct thoracic outlet syndrome.
Carpenter wasn't supposed to pitch this year, but returned to make three September starts, in which he went 0-2 with a 3.71 ERA.
Matheny could have opted for ace Kyle Lohse on normal rest, but said it was important to get Carpenter the ball in this spot. Lohse is scheduled to pitch tomorrow's Game 4 for the Cardinals, with Adam Wainwright set for a potential Game 5 on Friday.
"It really comes down to wanting to get Carp on the mound and trying to figure out where it fits best," Matheny said. "I didn't want to drag it out too far, realizing what he brings and his experience — what he brings with the success he's had in the postseason and in his career in general.
"And to me, he's been better every time he's thrown, so there's enough reason there to make a case in a couple spots. But this is what we felt gave us the best chance."
If Carpenter has a concern, it's the fact he has thrown only 17 innings this season.
"That's not too many innings to work the kinks out in live games," he said. "But I'm confident in my stuff. My stuff has gotten better each time out. It was good last time against Cincinnati and I'm looking forward to it being better this time out, too."
The Nationals will have no shortage of experience on the mound today, with veteran Edwin Jackson ready to take the ball. Jackson earned a world championship ring pitching for the Cardinals last season and then signed a one-year deal with the Nationals.
Behind Jackson, the Nationals have lefty Ross Detwiler for Game 4 and Gio Gonzalez in line to pitch a potential fifth game.
On paper, the Cardinals would seem to have the starting pitching edge for the next two days, at least.
"I unfortunately sat back and watched [our] guys pitch all year and they did a great job," Carpenter said. "That's what got us here. They were consistent through that starting rotation all year long.
"This is a nice team to compete against, because they all compete pretty much the same way as our team competes, and that's hard every day, fair, and they play the game the right way."
Matheny is just glad to have a known quantity like Carpenter in position for today's start.
"It's an invaluable experience, when you talk about a Chris Carpenter, an Adam Wainwright, a Yadier Molina who have won twice," Matheny said. "There are a lot of players who think they can perform at the highest level and come together and witness what it takes for a team to collectively do what we all set out to do in April. But it's a rare few that actually get to do that."

Offer social services and crisis support programs to females and their dependents/families infected and impacted by HIV/AIDS.
Small family-oriented agency offering support to females and their families impacted by HIV or AIDS. Located in East Dallas in a confidential setting for the benefit of our clients.
Would you recommend A Sister's Gift Women's Center (ASG)?
by B J. (2013-01-08 21:36:28.0)
I have volunteered 3 days per month for the past 11 months and I have learned so much about the nonprofit world as well as developed a new respect for women living with HIV/AIDS. ASG's Board of Directors, Consumer/Strategic Committee and CEO are ALL volunteers and work passionately to serve low-income females/mothers living with HIV. This is a Great volunteer experience for a mature female or intern looking to learn about serving others in a business structured environment. Volunteers with no prior business or client services experience may find it challenging to fit into office structure due to the large number of crisis and client intakes and minimal time for training "newbies". I have other places I also volunteer but ASG is my favorite because ASG makes "committeed volunteers" feel part of the management team, The clients and management team remind me how much I am appreciated on a regular basis.

text: JAY Retired Environmental Conservation Officer Robert C. Chatt has been named the 2007 Wildlife Conservation Officer of the Year by the Shikar-Safari Club International. Chatt, a resident of Jay, was recognized for his dedication and contributions to wildlife conservation during his 25 year career as a sworn police officer for the state Department of Environmental Conservations Division of Law Enforcement. Shikar-Safari Club International, a worldwide conservation organization, recognizes one Environmental Conservation Officer each year in all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces, acknowledging the important part they play in local, national, and international wildlife conservation. A representative from the organization presented Chatt with his award on July 2, 2008. Chatt began his career with DEC in 1976 as an interior caretaker at Marcy Dam in the Adirondack High Peaks Wilderness. He spent two years in the Adirondack Ridge Runner program, which evolved into the Assistant Forest Ranger program. As member of DECs trail crew, he helped build ski trails that were used in the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. In 1981, Chatt became an Environmental Conservation Officer, a position that he proudly held until his retirement in 2007. During his ECO career, Chatt conducted many foot and canoe patrols in the High Peaks, Sentinel Range, MacKenzie, Dix Mountain, and Giant Mountain Wilderness Areas and the St. Regis Canoe Area, where he enforced Environmental Conservation Law and hunting, fishing, and trapping regulations. Chatt was involved in many arrests of deer poachers. Several of these arrests led to additional prosecutions for Penal Law and federal firearms offenses, and resulted in prison time for the offenders. On one occasion, Chatt assisted the State Police in tracking down a Lake Placid bank robber who fled on foot into the woods. Bob also made arrests for the unlawful taking of wild turkeys at a time when turkeys were just becoming established in his sector. Chatt also responded to the 2001 World Trade Center disaster, the 1998 North Country Ice Storm, and numerous flooding incidents which involved evacuations due to ice jams. He assisted with many search and rescue incidents, including a night rescue of a lost hunter in 10-below-zero temperatures. Bobs hobbies include hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, paddling and cross-country skiing.

{Mr. Nielson and Spencie Jones holding their ladies bags at Sundance}
Today I had a slight breakdown.
I cried throughout the Little house on the Prairie "The Lord is my Shepard"
episode where the Ingalls only brother Charles jr dies.
It was terribly sad. {Topher, I am sure you know what I am talking about}
I am sooo emotional, its crazy!
I stepped in Jimmy's you-know-what and then got a ticket a BYU.
I parked in a faculty only parking.
I caught the ticket chic with neon sunglasses putting the ticket on my car
while I took a picture of Nicholas next to the cougar
{which you can find on my Instagram account}.
I was really mad. I will leave it at that.
I came home and Mr. Nielson called a good friend at Sundance
and asked if I could come up to stay alone for a night.
To get away from the smells at my house and everything that I am feeling.
Now, I am here.
Looking out my window at the most beautiful landscape.
I am blessed.
{full report tomorrow}
Also, just a REALLY nice e-mail (see below)
While I am very happy for you that you are having another little one, I really wish you'd stop complaining about it so much. I know people who would love to be sick throwing up because they are pregnant but they aren't because they CAN'T get pregnant. Just be glad that you can even have another baby (especially after everything you've been through) and stop complaining about it! You have been through some very challenging times in your life and I'm not downplaying that, but I feel like a lot of your blog is dedicated to complaining and it's not very fun to read.
To you I say this:
Please don't read my blog then.
Thank you.
You have no idea how grateful I am for Lil peanut.
Have you ever been burned nearly 85% of your body? NO? Well, gee if you have
you would know that being pregnant and burned don't really go well together.
Yes, I am a little on edge, and I swore I would never EVER give a minute of my time to e-mails like this, it is a waste. But this is MY blog, if you don't like what you are reading, STOP.
I don't care, I don't.
if more of you have these opinions please just keep them
to yourself, obviously it hurts me to read them and certainly adds to my stress.
On the contrary, I really enjoy these e-mails:
You mentioned awhile back about how you have to switch deodorants weekly. I too had to go unscented with deodorants because they all made me sick! Recently I was reading how Baking Soda can be used as a natural alternative to deodorant. I was skeptical but I tried it and it was AWESOME! There is no smell from the baking soda and above all I don't smell at all! Anyways, I am not sure if there would be a different reaction to your sensitive skin but it might be worth a try.
Thanks sweet Taryn, I will try it...tonight!
Maybe it will make me more happy so I wont complain anymore.
Happy Birthday sweet sister-in-law Katy

Living in Texas, I keep a low profile about not being a country music fan, but Reba McEntire is someone I can listen to. And I know she's one of the hardest-working women in show business. Besides her music career, she's an author, a fashion designer, an actor on television, film and Broadway and a presence at countless charitable events. That's why Reba is the ideal choice to be Billboard's first Woman of the Year.
I learned two rather impressive facts about McEntire in reading about her career. She is the No. 1 best-selling female country singer of all time and the No. 2 best selling female artist (all genres) of all time. Barbra Streisand is No. 1. Plus, Reba has received 73 awards to date — to see them all in one place, scroll to the bottom half of her Wikipedia page. Perhaps most impressive is how she looks at age 52.
Whether you're a country fan or not, you're going to hear a lot about McEntire in coming weeks. Her latest album, Duets, released this week, features a lineup that includes Carole King, Justin Timberlake and Kelly Clarkson. Clarkson and McEntire met in 2002 when they performed together on a postseason American Idol special and have become close friends.
They sang their duet, "Because of You," on Oprah Wednesday, and I have to say, it works. Here's a clip of the song from CMT Crossroads.
While I'm not sure if Reba will ever be in my iPod, I could listen to her talk all day long. So I would be remiss if I didn't mention my favorite Reba McEntire role, Betsy the Cow in Charlotte's Web. I love that movie.
Any country fans out there in AfterEllen.com land? This is your chance to tell the rest of us what we're missing — and why Reba rules. What do you think of Reba's duet with Kelly? Will the song crossover to the pop charts? If you've heard the rest of Duets, give us a review.

"Finally One That is Completely Safe..."This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.hovertraxUSER2 years ago
It is the best thing I ever bought. I learned how to use it in about 15 minutes! After that, I felt like a pro! The user's manual is simple to understand and they tell you exactly how to use it. And best of all, it can't explode and it has self-levitating technology! It stands up on it's own unlike other hoverboards. This is why I gave this item 5 stars. (I would have gave it more if there was an option)

The project aims to portray transience as a key feature of human experience, a compelling fact of life with a history.
It establishes relations – philosophical and historical, practical and ethical – between states of mobility, physical or imaginary, and forms of building.
The chief outcome will be a forthcoming monograph and extended case study of how transient thoughts and modern human habitat arose in part from an experience of the sea, the forms of ships and maritime settlement in pre- and early modern times.
The project is funded by the Australian Research Council.

I remember reading - oh, years ago - a reflection by a woman whose custody agreement was split 50/50. She talked about wandering her house, looking in on empty beds and missing her children.
I'm going to be honest. I am happy for my 48 kidless hours twice a month.
I don't spend those hours in any exceptional way. I sleep - a lot. I watch what I want to watch on Netflix. I exercise (sometimes). I work. I clean. But for 48 hours, I don't have to worry about making sure other human beings are staying fed, hydrated, or clean, let alone productive, creative or connected to me.
I could worry about whether they're eating vegetables at their dad's - but, hey. 48 hours without veggies won't kill them. And worrying will only rob me of what teensy bit of sanity I have remaining.
A friend calls me a "Divorce Baby," which he defines as anyone in his or her first year post-divorce. I still have several months until I level up (September 24, but who's counting?) but I am looking forward to a summer of beginnings as I learn to accept my new reality.

BE: Quite. Though in November some of us may regret having made that prediction.
You have been conned Brian.
That's not Hitler. I'm sure that that is Rob Muldoon running a cabinet meetiong.
Well it's either him or Norman Kirk.

From a German/Italian/Austrian film called "DOWNFALL" WITH Bruno Ganz playing Hitler.

A Complete Website Refresh
ACS365 were recognised by the Sunday Times as one of the Top 100 best companies to work for in the UK.
ACS365 provide IT solutions, Workplace furniture & interiors, Cloud Hosting and Recruitment service.
Content Management System, Responsive Web Design, User Experience, Digital Consultancy
Visit website
Making the User Experience (UX) mobile friendly
ACS365 required a new responsive design site with customer experience at the very centre. They also required a Content Management System (CMS) providing a function for staff members to manage and update content and marketing materials with ease. ACS365 wanted to help improve the user experience for customers.
Our approach to the project
We used Silverstripe CMS to ensure administration of the site didn't take over the lives of the marketing department - instead providing a functional means of creating marketing campaigns the convert visitors to leads. We took a customer centric approach and stripped the project right back to who is visiting the website, why are they doing so and what information would is required to make them convert. We hosted a User Experience (UX) workshop and created prototype wireframes that the team could interact with, while taking care of the Information Architecture and navigation structure too.
Page block builder
To help ACS365's internal web team effectively manage the website we created a page block builder which allows editors to build a page quickly and simply using blocks, for example a video block, image block and text block - all with drag and drop controls to layout the page. Think of it like a table, where you add rows and column and then select what elements you want inside each cell.
Multiple data capture points
Visitors are not always ready to make a sales enquiry, in fact only around 2% of the visitors click "contact us", but that doesn't mean we should lose out on collecting their name and email address! We put in multiple data capture points to "softly convert" visitors by capturing their contact data in exchange for valuable resources like ebooks and white papers. This is known as "inbound marketing", where you use content to attract, capture and convert visitors.
User Experience & Wireframe Workshop
The ACS365 website required a complete redevelopment, so we took the opportunity to start from a blank sheet of paper and hosted a user experience and wireframe workshop session, to bring together a high-level understanding of user needs, what the existing website was lacking and put together initial prototypes. The workshop approach meant we could get key stakeholders in the room to really push the project forward early on in the process with a complete team buy in to the project direction.

The team at New Edge Media were a pleasure to work with, they were thorough, helpful and went the extra mile for us when needed! We are delighted with the project delivered. I highly recommend them.

Michael Farmer, the London-based hedge fund manager and Conservative co-treasurer, has generated a third year of double-digit returns, bucking a losing trend that has dogged global commodity funds in 2013.
His Red Kite physical metals fund is thought to be up more than 40pc this year. Two more Red Kite funds have generated around 15pc returns each.
Dubbed "Mr Copper", Mr Farmer is often responsible for shipping around 15pc to 20pc of China's copper supplies. His hedge fund group, RK Capital Management, is one of the biggest metals investment firms in the world, managing $2.4bn (£1.5bn) of assets. The group aims to generate profits from both physical trading and commodity hedge funds.
Other big commodities investors have struggled in volatile markets. Clive Capital, a metals and energy investor with about $5bn under management at its peak, closed last month after three years of losses. Armajaro, a $1bn commodities fund, was reportedly up about 3pc on the year to October. Astenbeck, a $4bn commodities fund, was thought to be down 5pc earlier in the year.
Mr Farmer refused to confirm the exact performances of his funds but said there had been a "general disillusionment" with commodities among investors recently which Red Kite had not shared.
"The base metal markets are fundamentally under-invested. There has been a focus on equities, treasuries, bonds and other markets and a general withdrawal from commodity funds in the past couple of years," he said.
"In our assessment, the demand for metal this year has been higher than people anticipated. There has been higher than expected consumption and very good demand."
The financier said that "two underlying stories" had dominated commodity investing recently: that the Chinese economy was slowing down and that metals producers were raising production levels.
"But in reality, demand in China has held up while production has not held up, particularly in copper," he said. "There has been a list of production problems, from mine slides to smelter issues, that meant supplies have been lower than expected."
He added that 2014 will start with "a very low stock situation" and, although it is forecast to be a year of surplus, supplies will be rapidly snapped up and "from 2016 onwards deficits can be expected".

reputation of Simone Pérèle is built on the very qualities that make French
style embraced by women all over the world.
in Paris in 1948, Madame Simone Pérèle, an expert corset maker, had a vision to
liberate women and design lingerie that embraced a woman's natural shape. She
quickly gained a reputation for breaking with tradition, creating lingerie
dedicated to women's desire to look beautiful, yet also feel comfortable. She
combined passion and precision to achieve superior fit, ultimate comfort and

AFQT Test Review
The AFQT Test: What is it, How is it Administered, and How is it Scored?
Anyone who is planning to enlist in the United States Armed Forces should be familiar with the military's standards and screening processes. An important part of this screening process is the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT), which is a subsection of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). This standardized assessment measures a candidate's skills in the areas of paragraph comprehension, word knowledge, arithmetic reasoning, and mathematics knowledge.
How is the test administered?
The AFQT can be administered in two ways. The first is paper and pencil administration. As the name implies, test-takers complete this version of the AFQT by reading test booklets and filling out answer sheets. 84 minutes is allotted to answer the 105 questions. There are different time limits for each of the four sections.
How is the AFQT scored?
Scores on the test can range from the first to the 99th percentile which means that the final score represents how well an individual performed compared to others who took the test. The score doesn't necessarily represent the number of test items an individual answered correctly.
Free AFQT Practice Test Questions
1. Three outlets are selling concert tickets. One ticket outlet sells 432; another outlet sells 238; the third outlet sells 123. How many concert tickets were sold in total?
2. A boy has a bag with 26 pieces of candy inside. He eats 8 pieces of candy, then divides the rest evenly between two friends. How many pieces of candy will each friend get?
3. Overdue most nearly means
A. overall
B. early
C. punctual
D. late
4. She felt intense anguish when her parents divorced.
A. loneliness
B. confusion
C. anger
D. sorrow
5. If a bag of balloons consists of 47 white balloons, 5 yellow balloons, and 10 black balloons, what is the probability that a balloon chosen randomly from the bag will be black?
6. In a lottery game, there are 2 winners for every 100 tickets sold. If a man buys 10 tickets, what are the chances that he is a winner?
A. 1 in 2
B. 1 in 5
C. 2 in 5
D. 2 in 2
AFQT Question: Percentages 1
View our AFQT Practice Test on YouTube | AFQT Test Secrets
1. D: Add the number of tickets that were sold at each location to get the total number of tickets sold: 432 + 238 + 123 = 793
2. B: First, figure out how many pieces of candy are in the bag before they are divided:
26 – 8 = 18
Then, figure out how many pieces each friend will get by dividing by 2: 18 / 2 = 9
3. D: When something is overdue, it means that it is late. For example, when a bill is overdue, it means that it has not been paid on time.
4. D: Somebody who is experiencing or feeling anguish is experiencing sorrow or sadness.
5. B: First, calculate the total number of balloons in the bag: 47 + 5 + 10 = 62
Ten of these are black, so divide this number by 62, then multiply by 100 to express the probability as a percentage:
10 / 62 = 0.16
0.16 * 100 = 16%
6. B: First, it is easier to find out how many tickets are sold for one winner.
If there are 2 winners for every 100 tickets, there is 1 winner for every 50 tickets.
If ten tickets are bought, the chances of winning are 10 in 50.
This can also be expressed as 1 in 5.
