Church of the Most Holy Trinity
Augusta, GA 30901
Church of the Most Holy Trinity c. 1810 is one of Georgia's earliest Catholic communities. The current building, constructed (1857-1863), is the oldest surviving Catholic Church building in Georgia. Its history is reflected in the building records of the present structure which was consecrated during the height of the Civil War.
The marble altars were done in Baltimore, Maryland by John P. Mullen. He smuggled the altars through the union blockade at the height of the Civil War to install them for the consecration

Facilities managers cut back on lawn irrigation and replaced restroom fixtures with water-friendly versions, and installed a bioswale among other efforts. Did you know our campus arboretum has over 1,000 trees? Maintaining the beautiful grounds in a sustainable manner is among the many ways we keep our campus green.

Stacked up with more SUVs than staff, the Medical Marijuana Enforcement Division has now farmed out 15 of the monster SUVs to other state agencies that may not really need them, but have them anyway.
A couple went to Auto Industry Enforcement, two others to gaming, one to the agency that oversees horse and greyhound racing, five others to the Department of Personnel, five to the Colorado State Patrol — agencies that may not need full-size, 17 mile a gallon kitted out SUVs, and could have done with more economical, fuel-efficient cars.

Justice League Dark #10- I will say this for JL Dark; having John Constantine as the team leader is fun! The arrogant self-serving rogue magician made this issue ticked though I do worry that this series may have become too much of a Hellblazer series. Mr. Mist and Black Orchid are especially overshadowed this issue which I think is a missed opportunity as the duo are the most conflicted two of the whole bunch. Still, the whole issue was a fun read, especially the small tie-in with Demon Knights. Look forward to the next issue!
I, Vampire #10- Powerful people are often arrogant people and with his new powers, that is a hubris that Andrew Bennett got in abundance. Flushed with his new powers, he called in the vampires' mortal enemies to negotiate a truce. He firmly believed his new powers will be able to keep his side safe; he was dead wrong (pun intended). In many ways, this issue showed how much better as a leader Mary was especially when compared to the naïve Bennett. After a poor issue last time, it's good to see I, Vampire back on track.

ALBANY New York Regional Interconnect Inc. announced Monday that it has petitioned the states top power line authority to make a judgment on the constitutionality of a law that squashes the companys ability to condemn and take private property, according to a NYRI press release.
NYRI also wants the state Public Service Commission (PSC) to interpret whether or not the law an amendment to whats known as the Transportation Corporation Laws, which govern utilities negates the commissions right to review it.
NYRI believes in New York States regulatory process and only asks that its project be judged by the PSC on its merits, said NYRI Attorney Len Singer Monday in a prepared statement. However, we are seeking to determine if the 2006 (Transportation Corporation) law has effectively taken away the PSCs authority to site this transmission line.
NYRI is questioning if the PSC can legally and fundamentally approve a power line that cant be built, or will have difficulty being built, because it doesnt have access to eminent domain to secure required land rights.
A PSC spokeswoman could not comment Tuesday specifically on the commissions response to the petition.

I've noticed an anti-pattern in meetings, something to be avoided.
Perhaps you've heard the tale of the Three Blind Men and the Elephant:
Three wise men, blind with the frailty of age, were on a journey of discovery. Having never seen wondrous creatures like an elephant, they were delighted on their journey to come across an elephant and decided to experience it first-hand. In this case, literally, as the mahout allowed them to explore the elephant through touch. Afterward they headed to the tavern to drink and discuss their findings.
"The elephant," the first wise man said, "is a great powerful snake, and smells of hay." For, you see, he had been holding the animal's trunk.
"No, no," said the second man sharply, who had been stroking the animal's flank. "The elephant is more like a great mountain of rough flesh, taller than a man, and smells of dirt!"
"You're both idiots," the third said. "The elephant is long and thin, and if you pull on it, you don't want to know what you'll smell like!" For this unfortunate had had a hold of the animal's tail.
The moral of the story is not so much to avoid the rear end of elephants–though that might be good advice–as to point out that if all you have is a part of the picture you can be entirely wrong without even realizing it.
"Without realizing it" is crucial. In a pack of smart, self-aware thinkers, we do our best to take the other person's point of view, to examine an issue from all sides. If we know we might be lacking information, we can hunt for it–but if we don't, we can't.
This comes into sharp focus when people form a team to brainstorm. Each is possessed of different knowledge–some true, some important, some relevant. The trick is to get all the true, important, and relevant knowledge visible and shared. The challenge is that, like each wise man, each subteam may think it has the complete picture.
So you get together in a room. People start making points. Other people start shooting down those points or pulling them apart with "yes but what if X" comments. In the end you spend a huge amount of time sharing the information: each team has to explain what they're talking about, translating it to the language of every other team in turn. And then you spend a ton more time reconciling the information, as each team has to dissect each other team's presentation, requiring a readjustment of possibly all other teams' contributions as well. With two people it's annoying; with six, it gets ridiculous.
This is where the slides come in. I can't believe I'm saying that, because I'm supposed hate slides–but it's not true. I love slides. I hate boring slide decks.
Slide presentations are a process; a ritual. They have a few specific purposes, and this is one of them: organizing information.
First, the slides are used for presenting. According to the ritual, the presenter gets to present, and the rest of the audience gets to ask questions–after the presentation (unless it truly is a clarifying question). This reduces the quadratic time to linear time, though possibly with a larger constant.
Then comes the reconciliation phase. At the very least, each person has seen–if not understood or integrated–everyone's contributions. Perhaps they each have their own model, sketched out on a napkin or notepad during the other presentations, of how it all fits together.
Now all you have to do is reconcile these separate models, rather than doing pair-wise reconciliation or worse.
And that's a huge win.

(PORTLAND, OR -- February 21, 2012) -- A new composite Internet radio station has launched online and it's titled NewFolkRadio.com. The station, based in Portland, Oregon, plays roots, traditional folk, new folk, and bluegrass 24/7., without subscription fees.
What makes the station fall into the category of composite is its split personality: on the desktop or laptop, you can create your own playlist from the station's large library of songs, and on your smartphone or tablet, you can listen to NewFolkRadio as a streaming broadcast, or with one click you can transfer your own playlist to a mobile player for on the go listening.
NewFolkRadio.com is the first Internet station to feature custom playlists for listeners on the go. With just one click, a listener can save a custom playlist and have it available on any mobile device, such as smartphones and tablets.
The founder of NewFolkRadio.com, John Hart, has been involved with folk, roots and bluegrass music since the early 60's when he learned to play 5-string banjo by slowing down the vinyl records of Flatt & Scruggs. "In today's marketplace, it's frustrating to listen to folk, roots and bluegrass music that I want to hear without paying a subscription fee, so I started NewFolkRadio, and it will always be free. It's an advertising business model," he said.
NewFolkRadio.com launched on January 3, 2012, and already has hundreds of listeners, 53% of whom are repeat listeners (stats provided by Google Analytics), according to Hart. "I really want to promote local bands in each city who are in the process of recording a CD or already have a CD but have little exposure yet," Hart said. He added, "Northwest bands have already started to jump on board, but I'm anxious to have undiscovered bands around the world on our station."
NewFolkRadio.com is an organizational member of the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA), and a signatory to ASCAP and BMI. NewFolkRadio requires Adobe's free Shockwave player for desktop or laptop performance, but not for smartphones or tablets

Black Rice Stir-Fry
Not your average stir-fry: Black rice takes on a deep purple hue when cooked, and makes for a dramatic and more nutritious dinner plate. Plus, spoonful for spoonful, the dark grain has more anthocyanin antioxidants than blueberries. Japanese eggplant brings meatiness; red cabbage supplies fresh crunch.
- 3 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp Sriracha sauce
- 2 cup cooked black rice (1 cup dry)
- 0.5 bunch purple kale, torn into 2-inch pieces (3 cups)
- 0.25 head red cabbage, sliced (4 cups)
- 3 scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
- 1 Japanese eggplant, halved lengthwise and sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
- Coarse salt
- 12 Ounce firm tofu, drained, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
- Preheat a wok over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add 1 tablespoon oil, swirling to coat. Season tofu with salt and cook until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside. Add 1 tablespoon oil and cook eggplant, stirring, until golden and tender, about 4 minutes. Remove and set aside. Add remaining tablespoon oil and cook ginger, garlic, and scallion whites, stirring, 1 minute. Add cabbage, kale, and 1/4 cup water and cook, stirring, until kale is tender, about 3 minutes.
- Mix in rice. Once heated through, add tofu and eggplant. Stir in Sriracha and soy sauce.
- Remove from heat; stir in lime juice. Garnish with scallion greens.

If you want to eat a little of everything this Thanksgiving, you should. Gratefully savoring a delicious home-prepared meal on this one holiday sounds like a healthy thing to do, to me. But if you're wondering which, calorically speaking, are the best and worst Thanksgiving dishes to choose, I've got the skinny. Download a FREE Thanksgiving Side Dish Recipe Cookbook!
—Nicci Micco, Editor-at-Large
White meat. Per 3 ounces, opting for the "white" turkey breasts over the "dark" meat will save you 50 calories and 4 grams of fat: 115 calories and 7 grams of fat versus 160 calories and 11 grams of fat, respectively.

Even with its creamy mushroom soup and crispy fried onions, traditional green bean casserole (161 calories, 9 g fat per ¾ cup) is a lighter pick than sweet potato casserole (285 calories, 5 g fat per ¾ cup). Part of the reason is that green beans are so low-cal to start. That said, the starchier sweet potato is full of good-for-you nutrients, including beta carotene, a potent antioxidant and precursor to vitamin A.

At 316 calories and 14 g of fat per slice (1/8 of a 9 inch pie), pumpkin is a slimmer choice than apple, which will cost you 411 calories and 19 g of fat for that same-size slice. One explanation for the higher calorie count: the double crust. Another bonus of picking the pumpkin: whipped topping has significantly fewer calories and less fat than the vanilla ice cream often served atop apple.

If you're all about the calories, go for the dinner roll with a pat of butter, which will set you back 140 calories and 4.5 g fat, versus the 371 calories and 19 g of fat you'll gobble down in ¾ cup of the stuffing. But if you love stuffing, go for it—maybe just go for a smaller serving—Thanksgiving comes but once a year, after all.

Surprise! Gravy is actually the skinnier selection in this case. Per ¼ cup, gravy delivers about 30 calories and 1.5 g fat, versus the cranberries, with 110 calories (and 0 g fat) per ¼ cup. Why so high? Lots of added sugars.

If you think that mobile apps are solely for big name brands like Commonwealth Bank, Starbucks, Dominos – think again. Small and mid-size businesses are following the mobile trend, understanding that an effective mobile strategy involves more than just a mobile-friendly website.
All businesses have information they need to collect and share. There are millions of processes happening each day. In fact, you'll notice that many of the small businesses you interact with in your everyday life have their own dedicated mobile app – be it the café you frequent or the beauty spa. These companies are ahead of the game when it comes to taking their marketing to the next level.
If you're still sceptical regarding how mobile apps can benefit your business, here are a couple of reasons why you should get on the mobile app bandwagon.
Organisations are saving money converting manual processes to mobile apps
Canvas is a cloud-based software service that creates apps for smart devices. It conducted an annual survey to see how businesses and organisations are using mobile apps to better collect, share and learn from their data, and of those companies tracking their cost savings. Seventeen percent saved between $25,000 and $100,000 annually switching to mobile apps, while 81 percent indicated cost savings between $1000 and $25,000.
Be visible to customers at all times
Statistics show that many Australians spend as much as 18 hours online each day. While probably only a couple of those hours are used on the phone, it doesn't change the fact that each user has to unlock and scan their device for the apps they're looking for. Even if your app is downloaded but not used frequently, it can still be an advantage to your company, as our mind unconsciously records every image and text it comes across. Businesses hypothetically are still visible to customers every day – even if it happens unnoticed.
A direct marketing channel
Apps serve many functions. They can provide general information, prices, booking forms, search features, user accounts, news feeds and more.
One of the biggest advantages of having a mobile app is all the information you want to provide to your customers is right at their fingertips.
Mobile apps can use push notifications to send updates that let you know something new is going on within one of your apps. With Facebook, you may get a push notification to tell you that someone tagged you in a post or sent you a message. Your app may send push notifications for any reason you specify. Push notifications occur for various reasons, but there's one thing they all have in common – people read them.
Through push notifications you're getting even closer to a direct interaction, and can easily remind customers about your products and services.
The Canvas survey also reported 64 percent of businesses see value in integrating core business applications – such as Dropbox, PayPal, Salesforce and Quickbooks – with mobile devices and tools.
Your business can streamline manual processes, eliminate paperwork, transform the way you collect data, as well as share and learn from your business information. Mobile apps can be a way of staying closer to your customers, and improving your business strategy and it is all just a 'fingertip' away.

The last U.S. unemployment report before an expectedly tight presidential election showed a jobless rate that inched up to 7.9 percent from 7.8 percent in September, with a similar climb for Latinos, which saw their jobless rate tick up from a four year low of 9.9 percent to 10 percent.
U.S. employers added 171,000 jobs in October and hiring was stronger over the previous two months than first thought.
The number of jobs added in October however is far fewer than the 250,000 jobs many economists say is needed each month to turn the economy around.
The Labor Department's last look at hiring before Tuesday's election sketched a picture of a job market that is gradually gaining momentum after nearly stalling in the spring in what has been a slow recovery since the recession started in 2008.
Critics of President Barack Obama's economic recovery efforts point out the so called "real" unemployment rate, that number which includes underemployment and unemployment rates, which is 14.6 percent in October.
Since July, the economy has created an average of 173,000 jobs a month, up from 67,000 a month from April through June.
Still, Obama will face voters with the highest unemployment rate of any incumbent since Franklin Roosevelt. The rate ticked up because more people without jobs started looking for work. The government only counts people as unemployed if they are actively searching.
Investors were pleased by the news. The Dow Jones industrial average futures were flat before it came out at 8:30 a.m. EDT, and within minutes they were up 30 points.
The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note climbed to 1.77 percent from 1.72 percent, a sign that investors were moving money out of bonds and into stocks.
Most of the details in the report were positive. The government revised the jobs figures to show that 84,000 more jobs were added than previously estimated.
The gains in October were widespread across most industries. And the percentage of Americans working or looking for work rose for the second straight month.
The economy has added jobs for 25 straight months. There are now 580,000 more jobs than when Obama took office.
But there were also signs of the economy's ongoing weakness. Average hourly pay dipped a penny to $23.58. And the number of unemployed increased 170,000 to 12.3 million.
The department said Hurricane Sandy had no noticeable impact on the report.
The economy has picked up a bit in recent weeks, mostly on the strength of consumers. Americans are more confident and buying more big-ticket items, like cars and appliances. Auto companies reported steady sales gains last month despite losing three days of business to the storm in heavily populated areas of the Northeast.
Yet businesses remain nervous about the economy's future course. Many are concerned that Congress will fail to reach a budget deal before January. If lawmakers can't strike an agreement, sharp tax increases and spending cuts will take effect next year and possibly trigger another recession.
American companies are also nervous about the economic outlook overseas. Europe's financial crisis has pushed much of that region into recession and cut into U.S. exports and corporate profits.

Gordon Stone Embellishes the Red Room
As Gordon Stone gets set to wrap up a successful year that saw the release of
the Gordon Stone Band's Red Room, his best effort to date, Stone took the time for a
wide-ranging interview with me, in which he candidly talked about the jam band scene, the wide varieties
of genres encompassed by the GSB's bluegrass-inflected sound and his group's
connection with its growing fan base.
Oh yeah, and he also spoke about that other little band from Burlington, Vt.
Stone said the GSB is planning to tour extensively in 2002, so make it a
point to check them out live when they come to a club or theater near you. It may be your last chance
to experience their grooves in a cozy, intimate setting. For more info on the GSB, check out
ML: When did you start playing banjo?
GS: I was about 12 or 13. I just heard Earl Scruggs somewhere and was drawn
to it. I wasplaying piano and the other guys in the neighborhood were playing guitars and
ML: Who where some of your early influences?
GS: Early on, just Earl Scruggs, I guess. Then I got into playing some rock
and roll guitar. I studied jazz guitar at Berklee (School of Music in Boston) and then went back
to banjo like Bill Keith. I also have a lot of other influences. It wasn't so much banjo players
but Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk, Bach, Zappa. Kind of like composers and stylists of other
instruments. It was Bela Fleck that explained it once and it totally made sense. If you're living
in rural North Carolina or Kentucky and you're playing banjo, you're hearing bluegrass and you're
going to play bluegrass. In the Northeast, you're hearing funk, reggae and punk. It's just
kind of a natural progression.
ML: How would you explain the Gordon Stone Band's music.
GS: It's an eclectic mix of bluegrass, funk, jazz and Latin.
*ML: Most of your fan base is from the jam-band scene and is college-aged, and
for the most part is unfamiliar with traditional bluegrass. Do you think your music can serve
as a springboard to check out some of the older stuff?*
GS: I think if they look back to the influences and listen to the traditional
music it's great. But we're not really traditional in what we do. I think it's great if they
explore the music that they're hearing.
ML: Why do you think your fan base is so young?
GS: The reason that we have this fan base is because of the Phish connection,
but I think it would appeal to an older audience, but I don't know if they just don't go out so
much! They do like it when they hear it though.
*ML: The jam-band audience is known for being open-minded and encouraging
artists to take risks. What's it like playing for that type of audience?*
GS: It's great. That's the audience that sort of chose us. (Our music is)
too jazzy for bluegrass fans, too bluegrassy for jazzers and we're excluded from radio play lists,
excluded from jazz and bluegrass festivals and radio.
*ML: What did you aim for with Red Room, and do you think you accomplished
GS: I think it's the best thing we've done yet. It's just one of those
things, we're writing music along the way and bringing tunes into the band. Choosing what songs fit
nicely together. It's just what we're doing currently. The tunes were just written to be played out or
performed, and I think it flows nicely.
*ML: Talk a little about your drummer Russ Lawton's contributions, both with
his playing and his vocals as well.*
GS: His singing and his original tunes I think fit really nicely into the
repertoire. It seems like a real natural fit. Because there are words, some critics feel it doesn't fit.
Here's one bluegrass tune, and it would be just as easy to say what is that doing here? I don't
necessarily always understand the critic's mind. But I think (his singing) breaks up the set. It's sort of
the opposite of what many bluegrass groups do. Bands played as support musicians to bluegrass bands
that are mostly vocal, and once in a while you have the opportunity to play an instrumental.
*ML: After shows, the three of you stick around to chat with fans, sign
autographs and personally sell CDs. Does that add another dimension to your relationship with your fans?*
GS: I just think it's nice. It's very common in bluegrass shows. The
performers will sign stuff and talk to people. It's easier to do that when we don't have a bigger fan base.
It sort of gives a personal touch, but it's what we like to do anyway. It's another way to
reach the fans. I'd say in the past that in my band and other bands I've been in in the past, they get
done with the set and go back to the band room, and that's cool. But I know Russ has always been
into hanging out, and when Rudy [Dauth, bass] started playing with us, he did it too. It's actually without
any commercial intent, like we have to stay out here and sell this stuff.
*ML: Speaking off Russ, he's known by many of fans because of his playing with
Trey Anastasio and co-writing some tracks for Phish's "Farmhouse" album. You've been
associated with Phish for quite some time too. In fact, your initial meeting with bassist Mike
Gordon has almost taken on legendary status among fans. Tell me a little about how you first hooked
up with those guys, if you would.*
GS: Mike called for banjo lessons and I think he was still in college and
the band was starting and didn't have a name yet. They were playing and I went out to hear them and the
rest is history.
ML: What do you think of their music?
GS: I think it's cool. I like what they do. I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan
and I know all their tunes, but I think they did a lot to expand the jam band audience and then to turn
on their audience to jazz and bluegrass. They'll hear something, "Ginseng Sullivan," and the fans
will go "Who played that?" and they'll find out.
ML: You've recorded with them as well.
GS: I played pedal steel on "Fast Enough For You" on Rift. It was their
first attempt at a single for Elektra. I played banjo and pedal steel on "Poor Heart."
Mike later took the pedal steel part and transcribed it, write it all
out and had a horn section play it. I heard a live recording of it and liked it a lot. We also
played at their festivals, on the second stage at Clifford Ball as well as the Great Went and Lemonwheel.
ML: Does your group use a set list?
GS: We don't write one up. I have tried, and then I'll write it up and put
it there, and by the time you get to the second tune, I don't want to play that anymore. I like to go
by feel and a lot of times you're on a tour and play night after night, and it begins to arrange
itself into something that seems to work energetically.
ML: How would you explain your band's style of improvising?
GS: Things are pretty much arranged in a jazz format more than a bluegrass
format. In a bluegrass format. every instrument eventually plays one solo and you pass it around and
maybe pass it around again. In a jazz format, you play the head and then one soloist starts
and plays as many chords as they feel like and passes it onto the next one. That's how a lot of
our stuff is arranged. Some tunes have built-in open sections where we kind of let anything happen
and we let it go where we want to go, like on (the song) "Red Room." We had a really good
moment in the studio. One take, no fixes.
*ML: Most of your live stuff is pretty upbeat. Did you ever think of doing
more of your ballads live?*
GS: I actually feel like I write them well but don't play them out for the
jam crowd. The first three minutes in, people tend to start talking. "It's time to go smoke something.
We'll come back when they get into the jamming part." They want grooves.

OSLO, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Norwegian companies are expecting the pace of output growth to fall over the next six months, a central bank business survey showed on Tuesday, following a moderate increase over the last three months.
"Contacts as a whole expect that output growth will be slightly lower over the next six months. Some enterprises report that uncertainty in the housing market is weighing on expectations," the bank said in a survey of 327 companies.
The regional network survey is the central bank's primary sentiment gauge and usually forms the backbone of its rate decisions and interest rate forecasts.
The next rate decision is due on September 21. (Reporting by Oslo newsroom)

IHTM: I Tried a Skincare Product That Jacked Up My Skin Barrier So Here's How I Handled It
I basically called my mom for help. Except when I say mom, I mean an esthetician.
Early this month I embarked on a one month microdermabrasion journey at The House of Rush. My goal was to reduce the appearance of some lingering bumps and pigmentation marks.
Touted to fade acne scars and hyper-pigmentation, unclog pores, and encourage skin repair, microdermabrasion uses a vacuum and tiny crystals to deeply exfoliate.
Overall, my experience at The House of Rush was amazing. The space was absolutely fabulous, with magnificent chandeliers lining the ceiling, and they offered me complimentary pretzels while I waited. But all of that would've meant nothing if the treatment didn't deliver on its promise.
I'm happy to say that the treatment was AMAZING! I'm very impressed with the results. It's not instant or miraculous, but there is a gradual improvement after every session.
And my beauty therapists, Charlotte and Nicole, were extremely kind, knowledgeable, and thorough. They talked me through what was going on with my skin and what we could do to improve it.
The sensation of the vacuum was unusual at first, but never uncomfortable. It was actually very relaxing; I looked forward to those tiny crystals getting reacquainted with my face at every session.
Though I regularly experienced slight dryness the day after each treatment, it was nothing that a little moisturizer couldn't fix.
Visible improvements happened approximately five days after each treatment. My pores looked smaller and my face looked brighter, clearer, and more even. The marks weren't completely erased, but they did fade. Small cheek bumps also receded and stayed gone! Even the birthmark on my left cheek (which has grown darker due to sun exposure) seemed to lighten ever so slightly.
So far I've had three treatments, and I'm definitely game for a few more to bring my skin back to its former glory, circa my 10-year-old self. Miracles happen, right?
In the world of skincare, microdermabrasion is The Terminator. It's programmed to kill your pigmentation scarring so you can venture forth into the future with your previously perfect skin. To quote my favorite T-800 Model 101 cyborg, "I'll be back."
Have you tried microdermabrasion? If so, when did you start to see results?

The success of Ontario's SFH Strategy is a remarkable example of how health system research can be translated into real practice change at a system level. The strategy was underpinned by the RGPs of Ontario's SFH Framework, which provided the foundation for environmental scans, the identification of clinical priorities, and the creation of SFH ACTION. The SFH ACTION collaborative was developed jointly with strategic provincial partners and an advisory panel which included patients and caregivers.
The SFH collaborative has been supported through training, coaching, and skills development to grow into SFH implementation teams, each leading the advancement of senior friendly care at their organizations. By creating settings for meaningful in-person and virtual networking, we have enabled teams to learn and work together; sharing their knowledge, tools, and successes with one another.

Whether it's brining on the right manager or employee or altering the benefits that make EGC more attractive, every employee makes a difference in how profitable a company can be.
Chardon, OH, USA (PRWEB) August 31, 2013
EGC Enterprises, Inc., a manufacturer of severe service, flexible graphite products and materials for fluid sealing and thermal systems applications, has appointed Miriam McCluskey as Human Resource Manager. McCluskey will be responsible for all corporate human resource plans and procedures.
In addition to conducting recruitment efforts, McCluskey will participate in developing department goals, objectives and systems, administrate the compensation program, handle all benefits and employee counseling and maintains an affirmative action program. She also will recommend new approaches, policies and procedures for continuous improvement in efficiency throughout the enterprise.
Says Austin Carasello, President of EGC, "Miriam brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the company. She is a true professional. We're delighted to have her on-board."
"People are so different and everyone is right for a particular job," says McCluskey. "My task is to maximize the skill of an employee in a job that they love to perform. It's really nice to see people who you feel might excel and then, through time, watching their success. It happens time and time again."
With little experience in flexible graphite, McCluskey has a depth of knowledge with industrial processes. She handled similar duties for Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaners and, most recently for PET Processors, a large plastic processing facility.
McCluskey feels she has a direct impact on making the company more profitable. "Whether it's brining on the right manager or employee or altering the benefits that make EGC more attractive, every employee makes a difference in how profitable a company can be."
Married for twenty years, McCluskey has a 1985 BA in Business from Miami University and lives in Chardon, Ohio.

text: The traditional rule about which preposition to use after compare states that compare should be followed by to when it points out likenesses or similarities between two apparently dissimilar persons or things: She compared his handwriting to knotted string. Compare should be followed by with, the rule says, when it points out similarities or differences between two entities of the same general class: The critic compared the paintings in the exhibit with magazine photographs. This rule is by no means always observed, however, even in formal speech and writing. The usual practice is to employ to for likenesses between members of different classes: A language may be compared to a living organism. But when the comparison is between members of the same category, both to and with are used: The article compares the Chicago of today with (or to ) the Chicago of the 1890s. Following the past participle compared, either to or with is used regardless of whether differences or similarities are stressed or whether the things compared belong to the same or different classes: Compared with (or to ) the streets of 18th-century London, New York's streets are models of cleanliness and order.

a little grover for a fridayThere are all kinds of things to get upset about in this op-ed that Grover Norquist felt compelled to write (and the NYT felt compelled to run) — about as many things as there are to get upset about Norquist, actually, he of the "Shrink government to the size that you can drown it in a tub" sentiment. But if I have to pick one thing worth getting steamed about, it's this.
Now, the reason that Norquist is in the news at all is because of his silly Taxpayer Protection Pledge is being cited as a reason that some House Republicans would never vote for a debt ceiling increase that increased revenues. This raised the question: who the hell is Grover Norquist and why are elected officials bowing before him? This is the section of his op-ed addressing this issue:
Another challenge has been to suggest that members of Congress had somehow made a pledge to Americans for Tax Reform, or even to me personally, and that therefore it should be no big deal if they broke their commitments. Nonsense. The pledge clearly states that the commitment is to the people of their states and the nation. During the last election cycle those people elected a majority of the House who have made this commitment to their constituents.
Well, addressing the issue at least in the sense of sidestepping it. But anyhow, the conflation Grover is making here (Grover equals the American people) is distressing to say the least. We all want to cloak ourselves in the majority, give ourselves the high ground, unimpeachability. But to answer the charge of personal influence wielded with, "No, it is not I! It is the will of the people!" is some megalomaniac bullshit, for real. It is not the people the GOP are afraid of, it is Grover Norquist, annointing a primary challenger, or worse, cutting off the lobbying money.
BTW, Grover's organization, Americans for Tax Reform, is funded by a nice mix of billionaire neocon foundations (Scaife! Olin!) and Big Tobacco, so if Grover is a synecdoche for some group, it's less "proud American citizens" and more "corporate fat cats".

tonight at the cornelia street cafeThis stupid texting-while-walking issue is eating my brain. For the past three days, I have been obsessively surveying the number of pedestrians that are somehow playing with a gadget while walking, and by my back-of-the-envelope calculations, that number is 115% of all pedestrians. And this does not include the loud phone-talkers that creep up behind you and then walk exactly as fast/slow as you do — those people are just evil, not distracted.
But at the same time I realize that the more ones and zeroes I devote to this, the closer I creep to quixotic behavior, or at least back-sliding to that elementary school level of everyone making fun of me. So as a solution, instead of walking on the sidewalks with everyone, I will travel only by rooftop, like a low-level superhero. It'll take some climbing, but I could use the workout.
Also! And this is the last you'll hear of it, but tonight I read in front of people, and if you are in New York you are more than invited because I will forced to be social! 6p (though the fellow I'm opening for, Farid Nassif — and I am opening, my slot is enough to read two pieces and stare at the audience awkwardly — swears we go on at 6:30p) at the Cornelia Street Cafe, which had better be air-conditioned, I tell ya whut. Seven bones at the door, I'm told, which includes a drink, but I don't know of what.
Maybe we could just ban texting while walking on stairs? Or during rush hour?

i can talk about walking foreverA colleague and I were on the same train this morning, and accordingly we walked the three avenue blocks to work together. At some point she checked her email on her handheld device (while walking) and I remarked to her that, hey! isn't it interesting that in Philadelphia what you're doing is a ticketing offense?
She didn't think it was interesting. In fact, she thought that the new code is a stupid waste of time.
But, I answered, you're a dedicated walker. You love walking. You've never had anyone nearly get run over by you because they stopped to skip a Foo Fighters song?
It's never been a problem for me, she said, as she scrolled to the next email.
It's funny, I was wondering not a month ago when someone of note would remark on how the posture of either holding one's hand up to one's ear, or dropping one's chin down to one's chest, while walking is an entirely new use of our bodies that we did not necessarily have time to evolve into. Then I was rereading "Zero History" and Gibson had a passage that echoed the sentiment. So there you go.
But given my colleague's scorn, I gave a second thought to my position on distracted walking. Aaaaand I'm still against it. Not to be unreasonable, and maybe my position will evolve, but there is public space and private space, and getting from point A to point B largely happens in public space. There's no reason that it shouldn't be as pleasant as possible. (Not to mention what a scary picture an entire nation of people unable to encounter an environment without being cut off by a gizmo paints, etc.)

a law against texting!This may look like a bad idea — for the summer, Philadelphia is enacting a fine for walking (among other things) while texting.
And this is definitely the post wherein Andy Rooney is invoked and the getting-off of lawns is referenced, but, this fine for texting while walking? Absolutely a good idea.
Laws are intrusive, impediments to the liberty of man, sure. But, at the same time, humankind needs to be protected from its own bad habits.
Take for instance walking. Forward motion is truly one of more beautiful aspects of nature, be it the water trickling down the stream, or ants somehow seemlessly merging into one tiny point of egress. However, watch the collective motion of a bunch of people and it is a truly ugly sight chaotic stop/starts caused by the inordinately aggressive/polite, hurt feelings, the gas face — the whole magilla. People do not have skills in these ways, like ants. They do not keep the game in their heads: cooperate, and everyone gets there faster.
In the same vein is distracted walking: veering off of true, sudden stops, even just walking at two-thirds speed, head down. It may be very important for the subject to change the playlist or dash off the text about how they're five minutes away, but to the people whose paths are impeded it is not so important. For them, the important thing is deciding whether or not to knock the subject on their butt to teach them a lesson, or to pull them from in front of the speeding car and save their texting life.
And since this mild egotism will not be trumped by common sense, the five-oh need to get involved. (And it is a temporary program, so Libertarians rest easy.) I wish that it didn't have to be that, but if there were no stop signs, some intersections would be uncrossable.

brent cox at the cornelia street cafeI just remembered I have a reading.
I haven't done one of these in a couple years, so I'm actually going to try to promote it like it matters: this Thursday (July 21) at 6:30p, at the Cornelia Street Cafe, in the heart of Greenwich Village. Where, if memory serves, I acted in a little play in 1997 or so? It was a cute little play, with a section on Mormonism that pounded enough info into my head to serve me well as a succession of Mormons run for president.
But enough about magic underpants! It will be a reading, and I promise to be entertaining, and I am opening for writer Farid Nassif, who promises to play the piano.
(Expect more of these posts! I am terrible at self-promotion but am going to try!)

Language and Culture Lab
Overview and Mission
Inspired by Chicana feminism and Martin-Baro's work on Liberation Psychology, the Pepperdine University Language and Culture Lab seeks to understand and empower diverse communities within a cultural context. The Lab conducts four tracks of research in the areas of language and culture within the field of psychology:
Track One
Examines the supervision and training of psychotherapists to provide bilingual (Spanish/English) mental health services and community outreach. Focus is placed on the interaction of linguistic, clinical, and cultural competency.
Track Two
Examines the process and outcomes of culturally congruent practice within bilingual and Spanish-speaking communities. Areas of emphasis are the use of language in therapy and psycho-educational outreach.
Track Three
Explores individual and family processes as they relate to language use within a community setting. Areas of attention are the gendered experiences of immigration and acculturation processes of immigrant children as they relate to language and ethnic identity development.
Track Four
Examines the factors that lead to the persistence of Latino college students in undergraduate and graduate education. Specific contributing factors under investigation are ethnic identity, immigration experiences, and institutional best practices.
Research Projects – Qualitative

'The Legacy' Receives Top TV Robert Awards
2nd February 2015
Even greater than the Grønnegaard estate, DR1's gripping family drama The Legacy takes home the five leading television accolades of the night.
This year's Robert Awards held its ceremony over the weekend celebrating Denmark's achievement in television and film. The awards, named after the designer of the statuette Robert Jacobsen, sees its members honour the country's outstanding performances over the year.
Last night at the Tivoli Hotel in Copenhagen, the Robert Awards honoured the 2014 series The Legacy. Created by Maya Ilsøe, the show has generated critical acclaim with its first season and 1st January 2014 on Danish national television. The series has recently returned with a second season to continue the story of the dysfunctional heirs.
The Legacy revelled in overwhelming recognition for the programme's cast performances in each of the top award categories. The actors that play the three main siblings – Gro, Frederik and Emil Grønnegaard – celebrated their phenomenal triumph of the evening: Trine Dyrholm won Best Actress in a TV Series, Carsten Bjørnlund won for Best Actor and Mikkel Boe Følsgaard was garnered for Best Supporting Actor, respectively.
Lene Maria Christensen, who plays Frederik's wife Solveig, joined in with the show's abundance of success by receiving the Best Supporting Actress prize. The prosperity did not stop there as The Legacy went on to claim the esteemed award of Best TV Series as its crowning glory of the night.
In film news, the awards ceremony also complimented Nymphomaniac: The Director's Cut with six prizes, including Best Danish Film, as well as Best Director going to Lars von Trier. Fares Fares took home Best Supporting Actor for his role as Assad in Fasandræberne, the follow-up case to The Keeper of Lost Causes (2013), adapted from Jussi Adler-Olsen's 'Department Q' crime novels. The film also received the Robert Audience Award.

Lance Bass is Sebastian Smiley
Former NSync singer Lance Bass keeps close to his rumored boyfriend, Sebastian Leal, at the DKNY Jeans Beach House in Malibu, Caif., on Thursday.
Sebastian is supposedly a personal trainer. The pair were recently spotted with their arms around each other earlier this month at New York City hot spot Tenjune.
As late as November, Lance was seeing hairdresser Ben Thigpen. Since then, Thigpen and Lance's other ex, Pedro Andrade, reportedly had romantic involvement with each other.


text: 20 amazing things to do outdoors with your toddler Learning & play Play ideas 0 Squish jelly, hose dodgeball, dandelion blowing, pavement colouring and, of course, mud pies. 20 fun-filled ideas for great outdoor moments 1 Rub-a-dubYour toddler loves imitating what you do, so give her a bowl of water with some bubble bath in it and let her wash her doll blanket or toys' clothes. Provide another bowl for rinsing and then let her 'hang' the clothes out to dry by stringing up a low-hanging washing line for her. 2 Make a pot-and-pan sandpit"Sebastian loves playing with pots and pans in the garden – I give him about five old casserole dishes which are the perfect size for him to fill up with sand and water. They're also a lot easier to clean and put away than a big sandpit." Rebecca, 28, mum to Sebastian, 15 months 3 Have a teddy bears' picnicLay everything out as you would for a picnic, but invite all the soft toys to join in. Small plastic cups for your guests and little triangles of bread will complete the feast. 4 Have fun with feetBroaden your toddler's sensory knowledge by putting out different bowls. Fill one with jelly, one with wet mud, one with rice, one with sand and one with whatever you can think of. Ask her to close her eyes and dip her feet in, and describe how it feels. 5 Play push and pullSit on the grass face-to-face with your toddler with legs spread and your feet touching. Join hands and do a gentle back and forth stretch. You can sing while you do it and finish off with a kiss. 6 Play squish jellyMake up a washing-up bowl full of jelly to play with outside, where there won't be any mess. It's fun to mould, squish and throw, and if some goes in your little one's mouth it's perfectly safe. 7 Cool off with hose dodgeballMost toddlers enjoy being splashed with a hose. The 'targets' have to avoid being splashed, while the person who is 'it' tries to 'catch' a target by splashing them. 8 Have a water-balloon fightThrow the balloons at your toddlers' feet rather than their bodies, so they don't get hurt, and make sure you pick up all the burst bits so your toddler isn't tempted to eat them later. "We invited one of Tom's little friends, Sam, around, and they had a water-balloon fight instead. It was a great way to get outside, let off steam, cool off and water the plants into the bargain!" Rebecca, 33, mum to Tom, 2 9 Blow bubble picturesStir some non-toxic liquid paint into a bottle of bubble mixture and show your toddler how to blow coloured bubbles onto a sheet of paper. 10 Paint footprintsLay out several pieces of newspaper and then squeeze a few different colours of non-toxic liquid paint into paper plates. Let your toddler stand in the paint and then walk over the paper. Remember to keep a bowl of clean water handy for washing feet in between each go. 11 Colour the pavementThis works on quiet pavements, patios and driveway. Use coloured chalk that will wash off, and get creative. Make giant hand and footprints, or draw a traditional hopscotch grid. 12 Blow dandelions"This is easily Daniel's favourite garden activity – he absolutely loves blowing dandelions and it gives me a great excuse not to cut the grass! It's also a lifesaver for keeping him amused when I'm trying to hang up the washing." Jane, 28, mum to Daniel, 3 13 Make a veggie patchGive your toddler his own space on your veggie patch and don't be afraid to let him get dirty – if he wants to make mud pies first, let him! Try planting vegetables that have big seeds, such as butternut squash, as your toddler will find them easier to handle and plant. Your toddler won't have the patience to wait for months for plants to sprout, so opt for veggies that will appear quickly, such as red lettuce. Mix flowers in between the veg, as they're fast-growing and good for the environment. Encourage your toddler to look at the wildlife while he's planting. Share in his excitement of finding bugs in the soil - he'll find them fascinating even if you've seen them all before. 14 Try bucket gardeningWhile you're working outside, give your toddler a small bucket or raffia bag and let him help with jobs like picking up cut grass or old leaves. He'll relish the responsibility. 15 Bake mud piesTip some earth into a bowl (check for stones and insects) and add a little cold water until it's a good, thick texture (if it's too wet, it won't be mouldable). Fill some yogurt pots or flowerpots with the mud and leave to dry. Then gently tip out and, hey presto, you've got baked mud pies. 16 Patio-jumpingIn this forerunner to hopscotch, use chalk to draw flowers, stars or whatever you like at short but varying distances apart and see if your toddler can jump from one to the other. 17 Play the aim gamePlace a bucket on the ground and get your toddler to take five steps back. Then see how many balls she can throw into the bucket. If she gets all of them in she takes another step back. 18 Play What's the time, Mr Wolf?Mr Wolf is 'it' while the rest of the children stand at the far end of the garden calling, "What's the time, Mr Wolf?" 'Mr Wolf', who's standing with his back to the players, replies with a time, such as "4 o'clock", for example, and the players take four steps towards him. The children ask again, and this time Mr Wolf might say, "10 o'clock," at which point all the players move ten steps closer. After a few calls, Mr Wolf suddenly answers, "Dinnertime!" and turns around and chases the players. Whoever is caught becomes the wolf the next time round. The game ends when everyone has been caught and had a chance to play Mr Wolf, or when they're all exhausted. 19 Water sprayingSave old spray bottles from toiletries, rinse them out well and let your little one use them to water the garden. Do it from different distances to see where the spray goes. 20 Play the hot and cold gameHide a little prize in the garden and let your toddler go off hunting for it. Use clues like 'you're too cold,' to 'warmer' and 'boiling hot' when he finds the prize. By Susie Boone 0 Comments Share Like this article? Showing of Uh-oh! You need to be logged in to do this...

Dycem non-slip solutions for new state of the art vessel 'CWind Sword'
Mon, 08 December 2014
Dycem, a leading manufacturer of non-slip solutions, recently teamed up with Ventus Workboats and CWind to provide a range of branded and custom fit non-slip mats for their new vessel, the 22m CTruk multi-purpose catamaran 'CWind Sword'. Dycem's high-grip custom-sized mats were used to cover all above floor surfaces inside the new vessel. The mats were provided in black and feature a bespoke UV print of the joint ventures logo.
CWind, a leading provider of offshore support for the wind-farm industry, partnered with Ventus Workboats to launch a new state of the art multipurpose transfer vessel, designed and built by CTruk, destined initially for operation in the Baltic. Ventus Workboats approached Dycem looking for an effective non-slip solution for their vessel and wanted to prevent any unwanted breakages and damage to equipment and personal belongings whilst at sea.
Lee Price, Director at Ventus Workboats, said 'We are very happy with the quality of the Dycem mats and the service we received. The products are far superior to the mesh shelf liner material we've seen used elsewhere. The Dycem mats provide superb grip, feature our corporate branding, which looks amazing, and are even cut to fit the dimensions of vital surfaces throughout the vessel'.
Dycem's Managing Director Mark Dalziel said 'We were delighted with the opportunity to provide non-slip solutions to this innovative joint venture. We produced bespoke non-slip mats for the vessel which are not only functional but also feature our unique print technology for increased brand exposure for CWind and Ventus Workboats. We wish Ventus Workboats and CWind all the success in the future'.
Dycem's Non-Slip products are manufactured in the UK, are multi-purpose, long lasting and easy to clean and Dycem's forty eight year heritage makes it the tried and trusted brand for non-slip solutions.

Every time I go to vote at our little Glen Ellen firehouse I think of my grandmother, Beatrice Reynolds Kinkead. On Aug. 26 this year I thought of her more as we celebrated Women's Equality Day.
Grandmother Bea was, by all accounts, genius-smart and an early graduate of UC Berkeley in 1895. Frustrated by the mundane muddy horse-filled streets of Upper Lake, Lake County, she and her sister Grace bolted early out of Lake County and traveled by wagon to Ukiah, by coach to probably Sausalito, and ferry to Berkeley, for their educations.
Later, by 1899 she was teaching Latin back east at Vassar, was a "Fellow by Courtesy" at Bryn Mawr, and happily married with four handsome boy children. But she, a proud American, did not have a voice in her country's politics; she wasn't allowed to vote. So, when Alice Paul and others announced a call to arms for women's suffrage, Grandma Bea trained down to Washington D.C. to participate.
Grandma Bea was part of the banner-carrying, well-dressed "Silent Sentinels" of upper-middle class educated women who picketed along the White House fence in February 1917 for Women's Right to Vote. She and 15 other picketers chained themselves to the fence, were arrested for "obstructing traffic" on the Pennsylvania Avenue sidewalk, and sent to Occoquan Workhouse. At the workhouse, conditions were unpleasant, with only water in a bucket with a communal dipper, inedible food and crowded conditions.
Apparently, public opinion was in favor of the Sentinels and against President Wilson's apathy toward women's participation in democracy, so the tide turned. Though willing to serve their full terms of 60 days, the first picketers, Grandma included, were quickly pardoned by the President, so Grandma Bea was in Occoquan for only three days.
This year marks the 97th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, ensuring women the right to vote. A proclamation is being made by the City of Sonoma:
"Whereas on Aug. 26, 2017, we mark the 97th anniversary of the enactment of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution which secured the right to vote for women;
And, Whereas, women now constitute nearly 50 percent of our workforce, the majority of students in our colleges and graduate schools, and an increasing number of primary breadwinners;
And Whereas, even with the gains women have made, work remains to be done in many areas and especially regarding equal pay for equal work;
Therefore, the City of Sonoma proclaims Aug. 26, 2017 as Women's Equailty Day, marking the 97th anniversary of the enactment of the 19th Amendment, celebrating the achievements of women and recommitting to realizing gender equality in the City of Sonoma, including equal pay for equal work.
Congratulations, women and men of America."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Deshaun Watson reminded everyone why Panthers coach Ron Rivera — and many others — felt he should have won the Heisman Trophy last season.
Watson shined in his NFL preseason debut, completing 15 of 25 passes for 179 yards and running for a score in the Houston Texans' 27-17 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday night.
Watson, who led Clemson to the ACC championship on this field last December en route to winning the national championship, received a rousing ovation from Tigers fans dressed in orange when he entered the game in the second quarter.
The cheers grew louder when Watson outran two defenders for a 15-yard touchdown — although...

Yeaah, i love working on new songs, bits of them developing ito a bigger whole.
Energy: I hit the piano, strum a guitar, try to sing some nonsense, maybe something will stick!
And it does. The means to make it work are unmistakable: my new hardware (a self-assembled i7 Hexacore PC) and that powerful Protools interface.
