Cowlishaw: Clock management gaffes put Jason Garrett in spotlight
Cowboys lose chance to gain ground NFC East after mismanaging end of regular vs. Cardinals
GLENDALE, Ariz. — For at least one week, Jason Garrett critics — the floor is yours.
In his 20 games as head coach, it's conceivable that Garrett has had worse days. But without question the end of regulation in a 19-13 overtime loss to Arizona brought about his worst sequence, which is saying something for a coach who has struggled before with time management issues.
The timeout Garrett called that "iced his own kicker," if you will, actually wasn't as bad as the timeout he failed to call after the previous play when precious seconds were running off the clock in a tie game.
And, sadly for Cowboys fans, there was nothing and I mean nothing that Garrett said afterwards that brought any feelings of assurance, any sense of, "Oh, OK, that sort of makes sense now."
Everything came unraveled after Dez Bryant caught Tony Romo's final pass of the day at the Arizona 31-yard line. There were 25 seconds left in the fourth quarter when Bryant was tackled. The Cowboys had two timeouts left. There was absolutely no reason to even think about saving one at that point.
Instead, while Romo hurried the team to the line to spike the ball, Garrett watched. And he let the clock run down to seven seconds.
You can put that on Romo if you like, but he's mostly doing what he's told in those moments. It's the head coach's job to take charge there.
"We very well could have taken a timeout there," Garrett said. "We felt we were in field goal range. You see so many situations where you have negative plays in those situations."
In other words, Garrett had more confidence in rookie Dan Bailey hitting a 49-yard field goal than in Romo and his offense executing a play that wouldn't lose yardage.
And so it was with just seven seconds left that Bailey and the field-goal unit lined up to attempt the winning kick.
Bailey said the team practices getting onto the field quickly all the time. He said he expects to have to kick it twice in case a timeout is used to ice the kicker.
Bailey made the kick as the referee signaled that a timeout had been called. This time it came from the kicker's own sideline.
"We felt like the play clock was running down. We were down to about six and we weren't set," Garrett said. "We felt like we wanted to have a clean operation."
So Bailey lined up again. The ball fell short of the crossbar and was slightly off to the left. The game was going to overtime where a 52-yard pass from Kevin Kolb to LaRod Stephens-Howling would end the Cowboys' four-game winning streak.
"No excuses," said Bailey, who added that having to try the kick twice should have had no impact. "I don't put a lot of stock into [icing kickers]; I don't think it's a big advantage for anybody."
I don't either, for what it's worth. So to call out Garrett for "icing is own kicker" is to criticize him for something that has marginal value if any when done under normal circumstances.
Basically, what Garrett did in that case looks dumber than it actually is.
But that's not the story with his failure to use timeouts wisely before the field goal attempt.
The lack of confidence Garrett expressed in the offense he directs is what's alarming. Against a Cardinals defense that isn't exactly the Ravens, Garrett said he was too worried that his team would be pushed out of field goal range if it took another snap from the Arizona 31.
If that's a subtle way of showing a lack of confidence in Romo (I don't think it is), it's preposterous.
If it's a way of making excuses for a failure of clock management at a critical time, it's not going to win Garrett any support.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones seemed to be a most reluctant buyer of what Garrett was selling after the game.
"I'm not saying I agree or disagree. I was told [not calling the timeout] was to let time run off the clock," Jones said. "I would have felt better if we had pulled this one out and gained another 'can do' when it comes to handling these situations."
Instead, the only thing the Cowboys can do in this stadium is find a way to help the Cardinals steal a victory in the final seconds.
On this occasion, way too much of the help came from the Cowboys sideline.
The Cowboys have lost four games this season in which they held a fourth quarter lead.
Sept. 11 at NY Jets
4th quarter lead: 14
Lost game on ... Nick Folk 50-yard field goal with 0:22 remaining
Oct. 2 vs. Detroit

Enterprise Rent-A-Car recently announced that they are adding the Nissan Leaf to their business rental program for the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP), making the first deployment new generation electric vehicles to the government agency's fleet.
For the moment, the car rental agency is only offering the Nissan all-electric car at one location in Santa Monica, California, but both Enterprise and LADWP are looking for ways to expand access to electric charging stations across the state, as the infrastructure is a necessary component of mass deployment.
The Nissan Leaf has been making strides in California and across the nation since it was first unleashed to the U.S. market late last year. The all-electric car was deployed across the state of California earlier this year as part of The EV Project, and has been finding some unlikely allies, including a Republican Senator from Tennessee.

YOU can feel a bit of an anomaly at a Pam Ann show if you're neither gay nor cabin crew.
The '60s throwback trolley dolly with more bile than the average gallbladder has a very distinct and utterly faithful following; consequently one of her gigs, even in a room the size of the Lyric, feels like a private party – and is a whole lot of fun too.
The first half is largely spent getting to know the different airlines represented in the crowd and matching them with their characteristics (all Virgin staff are outright tarts for instance and BA are positively equine).
These stereotypes are so outrageously executed it would be churlish to take offence. To round off the first half they were gathered on to the stage for a demonstration of their walks through the terminal building to the tune of Disco Inferno.
In the second half Pam, issuing barbed witticisms as she went, resurrected a couple of old favourite tricks.
Sashaying down the aisles as the crowd shrank back into their seats in fear, she divided the audience up into the much revered first class, the wannabes seated in business class and sneered at the plebs in economy.
A security search was conducted having half inched a bag from the sweaty palms of a woman in the front row, sorry first class, and was thoroughly rifled through.
The cabin crew gang and other unsuspecting stars of the show, including a particularly cute terrorist, were reunited for the closing, spontaneously choreographed sequence, aptly rounding the night off with a scene camper than Cornwall in the summertime.
Did you go to the show? Why not tell us what you thought by entering our Reviewer of the Month competition.

Should backwards hetero-normative lifestyles be promoted by default in our schools?
Should the constant abuse and dehumanization of lgbtq teens and adults continue due to the ignorance imposed on our society by a dwindling religious minority?
Should the radical right get to indoctrinate our children into believing gay people should be neither seen nor heard?
Is separate but equal the new mantra for the radical right?
We're just asking questions!
There is nothing wrong with challenging the hetero-norms persistent in school settings. Students shouldn't be conditioned to believe that one sexuality is normal, and therefore more acceptable than another. The first form of action would be to enable homosexual students and couples to embrace their sexuality without feeling the need to repress as many, many homosexual students do. This means that students would have to become aware that homosexuality is indeed a legitimate sexuality that deserves the same respect and treatment that heterosexuality receives.
Many youth struggle with understanding and accepting their sexuality, especially if they do not fit in to what society has deemed normal.
The LGBTQ community informing the youth by 'proselytizing' at schools would not only give relief to questioning or out youth, but give answers to youth with 'normalized' sexualities or otherwise about what the LGBTQ community really is.
Kids are going to enter a world in which somewhere between 5 to 10% of the people they meet fall under one of these umbrellas. Unless you think it's a great thing for them to approach with hatred in their hearts or ignorance in their heads, why would you be against it?
Do you still believe the LGBT is not after our kids? As principal he probably organized the school gay pride parade...
Woodrow Wilson High School principal Pete Cahall stunned many of his D.C. Students when he came out during the school's gay pride celebration.
After the announcement at the LGBT event, Cahall was still shaking as students walked up to offer him hugs, WJLA said.
We already hear enough about this movement on the internet, and schools really arent the place for it. Once we allow these groups in schools, the creationists and religious groups are going to want in next too. Soon all our schools will be filled with backwards knowledge, and we have to either homeschool or send them to a private school to get a decent education. I'm not completely against gay rights, but I think a lot more people would be supportive and understanding if they didn't try to force their sexuality on everybody.
I think this question is ill framed. But, the obvious answer is no one should be able to proselytize in schools ever. We already have creation idiots trying to force themselves into classes proselytizing. Honestly, I have never heard of a LBGT group doing this. Probably as being homosexual is not a choice, so proselytizing like a church (belief is a choice) is pointless.

Before The Bell: China Retail Surges, Autos Gaining Ground, Futures Point Up
China's retail sales surged 18% because of strong demand but also inflation. Auto makers gaining ground. Futures point higher.
Bloomberg reports China's retail sales rose 18.1% in October from a year earlier. The increase marks the fastest pace in eight years with sales of clothing, electronics, and automobiles surging over 30%. As causes for the increases, one Chinese economist cited inflation and strong demand. Read Minyan Peter's article China's New Economic Challenges for more information. Also read Professor Jeff Macke's article October A Month To Forget For Retail for context of domestic plays in the U.S.
From the Bull Pen: Chinese bulls may see value in China Mobile (CHL), China's largest mobile phone operator; near-term sell-stops can be set below the 50-dma ($84.05) or, for those with more risk tolerance, recent support at $80.
From the Bear Cave: Wal-Mart (WMT) has rallied 7% in the last two days. The stock is also approaching resistance at $47, which is the downtrend line from the June highs and the 200-dma. Buy stops can be set on the other side of that level.
U.S. Autos Gaining Ground
The WSJ reports Detroit's big three auto makers have improved in quality rankings but still fall behind foreign competitors. None of the brands, however, made the top ten rankings with eight making the up the worst ten. Detroit auto makers have recently slashed production in an effort to cut costs and improve resale values. Read Professor Kevin Depew's Five Things You Need To Know from November 8th for more on consumer health.
From the Bull Pen: For those that believe U.S. auto makers have bottomed-out, long term plays may include General Motors (GM). Near-term stops may be placed on trades below $29.
From the Bear Cave: Quality aside, as the Japanese yen continues to gain ground versus the dollar, Japanese exporters will likely continue to suffer. Bearish auto plays may include Toyota (TM), buy-stops above $115, which is the downtrend line from June.

One way is including you from the very start—the community of people living with or caring for someone with type 1. Too often, traditional research has excluded your voice – the voice that matters most.
On Glu, your experiences and insights drive and inform research studies that address unmet needs and real-world challenges of living with T1D.
And Glu is a part of a larger community—a research-focused community called T1D Exchange.
T1D Exchange was founded on the belief that improving T1D outcomes requires a new approach—one that helps researchers conduct better research faster. Better because it's patient-driven and more informed. Faster because T1D Exchange saves time by providing the research community with seamless access to high quality resources needed to conduct research projects, studies and clinical trials.
Today, T1D Exchange has demonstrated that our single-access research model is, in fact, dramatically improving the speed and success of research. Since 2009, T1D Exchange has gone from a vision to a widely-recognized resource in the type 1 diabetes medical and research community globally.

SUPPORT — A community for us — by us
You don't really get type 1—until you get it. There is no other disease like T1D that requires so much daily input and management from patient or caregiver. That means our Glu community shares more than T1D—we share a common language and understanding. We crowd-source wisdom, share experiences, and offer perspectives – all to connect and support others living with or caring for others with type 1, while contributing to research.
If you spend time on Glu, you probably know that Glu really is a community for us and by us. Many on our staff live with or care for someone with T1D, including GluAnna, GluAlex, GluMom, GluAlyssa and GluJill, to name a few.
IMPACT — How you can help create better T1D solutions
In type 1, progress can only come from participation. You don't just make Glu a stronger, more vibrant community; you also contribute to research that will help improve care in T1D.
How can you drive and inform research through Glu?
- Complete your profile information: this helps researchers learn from your real-world experiences and helps Glu target appropriate research surveys to you.
- Answer Question of the Day: one question every day about type 1 that you can answer, learn and discuss with the community—all while driving needed research.
- Fill out research survey: a research survey on Glu is usually an online survey you can complete on your computer or smart phone. It usually takes less than 30 minutes, but results are used to develop more effective therapies and devices, better clinical care and educational programs.
- Participate in clinical trials! New therapies, devices and better clinical knowledge only comes from patient participation in clinical studies. From time to time, Glu promotes clinical studies we think could help improve T1D outcomes. Consider participating. We may all be thanking you for new and exciting breakthroughs in type 1!
EDUCATE — Learn and share your knowledge
Glu is a vibrant, active community for people touched by T1D. Become an active participant. Read articles, participate in discussions, and contribute your knowledge! When you participate, you will:
- support others touched by T1D
- add your wisdom to the largest library of crowd-sourced knowledge from people living with type 1
- learn from others in our community
- and help drive new research
DONATE — support better, faster research that improves outcomes
Glu is part of T1D Exchange, a non-profit organization dedicated to accelerating research to improve outcomes in type 1 diabetes. T1D Exchange has an innovative, novel approach that is already having a big impact in making better research happen faster.
You can support the T1D Exchange mission and help sustain Glu as an important community for people with type 1.

Now this is a story all about how
My leftovers got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute, just sit on your throne
I'll tell you how I made them into a soup called minestrone!
Just call me the Fresh Princess of Soup. Or call me a nerd. Either way, we both get to call this soup delicious.

This document was published under a previous government.
March 7, 2012
Ontario is taking action to address the effects stemming from production and distribution issues at the Sandoz Canada plant in Boucherville, Quebec. Sandoz produces several critical drugs that are used routinely to treat patients in hospitals and other care settings.
Sandoz notified the ministry on February 28 of the supply implications of issues at its production facilities. Sandoz is focusing their production on key surgical and pain medications and has committed to inform customers of projected drug allocations so that they may plan accordingly.
The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care immediately contacted health care sector partners to develop a plan to address any potential drug shortages. This plan includes :
To support this work, the ministry has assembled a Technical Advisory Group with representatives from the Ontario Hospital Association and other key organizations from the health sector.
Yesterday, I wrote my federal counterpart, Minister Aglukkaq, to urge federal action in locating alternative supplies of the affected drugs and to facilitate their import. Ministry officials are also working with the federal government and other provinces on national strategies to address the shortages.
Health care providers that have questions about short-term supply of Sandoz drug products can contact the Ministry directly at 1-866-212-2272.

Skip to comments.Republican Response to The One- - Jindal - LIVE THREAD
Posted on 02/24/2009 7:14:01 PM PST by Jean S
Live thread.
He is getting in some pretty tough attacks on the Dems. This is good. I am tired of the "work together" talk, especially when it comes from our side.
They could have selected a random freeper to give a more inspiring rebuttal. What weak tea.
Cross between Algore and Mr. Rogers. This isn't gonna work. Fizzle.
Agreed. Jindal is terrible tonight.
I really like Gov. Jindal more all the time.
I'm sorry...I cannot support Jindal...if he is our "next" leader, then I'm going to look for property in New Zealand.
He has absolutely no charisma!...
Now THERE ya go!!!!
Yeahhh...I also learned early on never to mention Jane Fonda's name within earshot of him, otherwise he'd be cussing for the next half hour at least...
It worked in Star Wars!
Sorry for my lack of understanding, but it sounds like MY receiver was jammed!
Thought he did well...
You can't be serious. He's head an shoulders above Palin who will never see national office.
Everyone has to remember, the response speaker is at a distinct disadvantage. He's not speaking to an auditorium with repeated applause and reactions from a crowd. It's strictly informational rather than dramatic.
Just gotta keep it in perspective. If Jindal were speaking to a responsive crowd, he would've sounded much more impressive.
Jindal has time to work on his delivery. This is a preliminary warmup (redundant I know).
I agree, he sounds horrible. It's like he's going to break into duck-duck-goose any moment.
Bingo! Some of the comments about Jindal were way off the mark although he sounded a lot better on CNN then on Fox.
I have seen Bobby speak in person and on TV and this was Bobby at his worse.
I agree Governor Jindal does not have Governor Palin's charisma but he seems very honest and authentic.
Not good. First time I have really heard him too.
Jindel tried to hit an Elephant with a B B gun. He didn't
get to the meat of the problem or the Communists we are up
The Fox group isn't impressed with his delivery at all.

FORT LAUDERDALE — Police are still trying to identify a man who was wearing only green gym shorts Sept. 28 when they found his body behind a rooming house in the 900 block of Northwest Fifth Court.
The body of the man, who was about 45 years old, showed no signs of foul play. An autopsy failed to reveal the cause of death, said Bruce Hahn, an investigator for the Broward Medical Examiner`s Office.
In a last-ditch effort to identify him, Detective John McMahon, a Broward Sheriff`s Office artist, drew a picture of the man, who was 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighed 126 pounds.
Anyone with information is asked to call police Detective Norman Eddy at 761-5543 or 761-5700.

Date: Monday, December 24, 2001
'Twas the Night Before Christmas
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Red Sox Nation,
We prayed for Henry and Werner to end 83 years of frustration;
Our new leader Lucchino knows how much we care,
And that most of us hope Dan Duquette's outta there;
Last year's Red Stockings were hung by injuries and retreads,
But now visions of a World Series dance in our heads;
With Larry as chief, and Johnny's new Red Sox cap,
Could this be the year, we close New York's 26-to-5 gap?
Then during my sleep there arose such a clatter,
It was down in Ft. Myers where something was the matter,
Away to the airport I jumped on a plane,
After spending the winter just waiting in vain;
Soon came the warmth of the Florida sun,
The Dirt Dogs were back to making baseball fun,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But Pedro Martinez, who hadn't pitched for what seemed like a year;
And then, in a twinkling, he was back on the mound,
The prancing and pawing of the top throwing hound,
Laying his finger aside of the seam,
He gave me a nod, this was my impossible dream;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
He went into his windup; then turned with a jerk,
As he threw out his hand, and was coming around,
Down towards home plate, the ball took off with a bound;
He threw like the old days, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment, Petey was no longer sick.
More rapid than eagles came the Opening Day game,
At the top of the dugout, Joe called them by name;
"Now, MANNY! now, TONY! now, DAUBACH and NIXON!
On, DUSTIN! on DEREK! on, NOMAR and DAMON!
From the very first pitch! Hit it over The Wall!
Now swing away! Swing away! Let's play ball through late fall!"
And just like before Nomar let the ball fly,
Jason threw out base stealers, hit long drives through the sky,
Manny had the old stroke back, when he hit 'em they flew,
They all batted around, Offerman too;
I sprang to my feet, to the team gave a whistle,
They circled the bases, Pedro threw another missile,
The good times were back for our little ballclub,

|Home | Cold War Turns Hot | The Armed Forces Integrate | What the Experts Say
Moving Toward Integration -Disbanding the 24th
Smith: Tell about disbanding of the 24th. Why was it eliminated?
Hammond: Well, let's say it was retired rather than disbanded. Retired because of the law that was written when the thing was established after the Civil War, it had to be an all black unit. They wanted to just keep the name and integrate it and move the men around.
Ellis: Which they've done with other units.
Hammond: Yes, but they couldn't do that with the 24th Infantry because the law said it had to be all black.
Smith: The law that created it.
Hammond: Now you could have gone around it.
Smith: They could have gotten Congress to pass a different law?
Hammond: Yeah, but it's a war and that was there rational for it. I'm sure they could have integrated it and said nothing, but in the end the bean-counters rule.
Smith: So there's nothing particular about
Hammond: They were perfectly happy to get rid of the name because of the baggage. So they didn't make a big issue out of it. They could have, but they didn't.
Smith: What about the men from the 24th -black soldiers who wanted it to keep going?
Hammond: There were black soldiers who had questions about it. But in the long run they were in the Army and you go where you're told. And when they got in the integrated units, they were a lot better off than when they were in an all black unit.
Ellis: Describe the process of integration in Korean War, what were the circumstances that finally drove the integration?
Hammond: Integration in the Korean War came about by necessity. There were more black soldiers than the all black units could absorb. So you had all these black guys in the early days of the war, wandering around the rear, unattached, just in holding units and nobody knew where to put them. Meanwhile the whites are getting whacked and there are holes in the other units. What do you do? If you're smart, you go down to the rear units and grab those black guys and put them out there. And if anybody objects, you tell him to shut his mouth. We're out here to live. You do what you have to do and keep your mouth shut. Black guys in white units are treated like everybody else, because you gotta treat them like everybody else. You give them the same stuff, the same orders, you can't discriminated in a unit. Because if you start that, you destroy not only the morale of the blacks, but of the whites. Treating him like that, I need him, he's right on my side. What do you do to me? So that doesn't happen.
And racial stereotypes to the contrary, the black guys do just fine. And this is repeated again and again and again. And the Army is standing there with its figurative mouth hanging open. Oh, something is wrong with the way we've been doing things. Oh. And they start integrating, the process of integration starts at that point. And MacArthur leaves and Ridgeway replaces him and Ridgeway wants to be done with segregation entirely and he's a man of considerable liberalism. And he does it.
Smith: Why was the Army so slow - held out the longest?
Hammond: I think the Navy, the Marines did a pretty good job of holding out.
Smith: That's true.
Hammond: The Navy.
Smith: Yeah, Navy particularly.
Hammond: The Army is slow, but it's not dumb. Whatever you want to think about it, it's a people's army, a real people's army. They saw the handwriting on the wall, knew where they would have to go. And they did it, bit the bullet and did it. Interesting. The blacks will talk about the officers - oh this one was so bigoted and that one. And we would come in and interview these very same people and after they had had careers in the Armysome of them 30 yearsit's amazing how much they grew. Like poor old St. Augustine, the sinner and lord, you call him a saint but what a sinner. It's not where you begin, but where you end. So they all grew.
Smith: Were some of these guys self-reflective about it?
Hammond: Sure, of course they were.
Smith: And what changed them was exposure?
Hammond: Yeah, life. Do they have the residuals of racial prejudice, I think all of white society has its racial prejudices to this day and black people are acutely aware of it. I heard on some of the tapes some talking to John Cash about founding a veterans association. And we want it to be mostly black, but we can't make it black because that would be discrimination. Well, don't worry about it. Just give it a neutral name and you'll put black guys in it and no white guys will want to join it. They have got the score in that regard I think.

LONDON: Arsenal are opposed to any split from the Premier League after British media reported on Wednesday that England's big five clubs had met to discuss joining a possible European Super League.
"We are firmly opposed to any kind of breakaway," an Arsenal spokesman said. "We entirely support the current structure, the Premier League as it is and the Champions League as it is."
The Sun reported that Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool had held talks with representatives of American billionaire Stephen Ross, owner of the Miami Dolphins NFL franchise.
Senior executives of the five English clubs were seen leaving a meeting at London's Dorchester Hotel on Tuesday, the newspaper said.
Ross and his Relevent Sports company organise the off-season International Champions Cup (ICC) friendly tournament played in the United States, China and Australia which features local and top European clubs.
Sources close to the talks said Tuesday's meeting was mainly about discussing the ICC and ways of strengthening European competitions to complement the Premier League.
Europe's biggest clubs, keen to secure automatic entry into the lucrative Champions League, have been working with European football's governing body UEFA to review the format of the continent's elite competition.
Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea could all miss out on Champions League football next season with Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur currently filling the top two slots in the Premier League ahead of Arsenal and Manchester City.
European Club Association chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has suggested top clubs should get direct entry into the Champions League.
Teams currently have to qualify for the competition by virtue of their domestic league position in the previous season, with the Champions League holders also guaranteed a slot.
Former Germany striker Rummenigge, who is chief executive of Bayern Munich, told a German newspaper in January that a European league was a possibility.
"I don't rule out that in the future a European league will be founded, in which the biggest teams from Italy, Germany, England, Spain and France will play," he said then.

In mid December a groundbreaking law was quietly approved in Albany, NY. Not even a month later the same exciting law went into effect in Sacramento, CA, with people in line to sign up. So what could this new innovative law be? It is the beginning of a new era in responsible companies! Both California and New York were the first to enact a law that would include conscious corporations as a type of business. Not only will these new laws benefit the corporations who are certified, but society.
Companies who will be classified as "Benefit Corporations" will be held accountable for how their business impact the environment, their workers, and their community. They will be required to publicly publish environmental and social performance which will be monitored by third parties. Basically, this is going to provide a new frontier of transparency for the consumer and a new era of corporate responsibility. The New York law was largely written and sponsored by B-Corp, which has spearheaded the idea of the benefit corporation for a while now. Their co-founder, Andrew Kassay, urged the importance of this law taking effect, "The benefit corporation bill will unlock billions of dollars in impact investment capital and enable entrepreneurs across [NY] to start businesses that solve some of society's greatest challenges."
The real question is, will corporations and businesses make this move? Will they want to become a Benefit Corp? It seems likely, especially in the wake of California's inauguration of the bill. Classification of Benefit Corporation began on January 3rd, 2012, with twelve eager companies ready to sign up! The first and possibly the largest to sign up was the clothing company, Patagonia, which has long lead the way in environmental outdoor clothing. They had championed the bill and wanted to show their support by being the first company to file in 2012. Founder and CEO, Yvon Chouinard, released a statement about the historic day: "Patagonia is trying to build a company that could last 100 years. Benefit corporation legislation creates the legal framework to enable mission-driven companies like Patagonia to stay mission-driven through succession, capital raises, and even changes in ownership." Some other companies who signed up this year were Give Something Back Office Supplies, Green Retirement Plans, and Thinkshift Communication to name a few.
Major corporations such as Patagonia and smaller green/socially conscious businesses signing up means good news for the consumer and new Benefit Corporation classification. This could also mean good news for states like NY and CA who adopt this legislation. With the economy causing businesses to flee these states due to high taxes, bureaucracy, and expensive property, this could be a useful for drawing in new business or keeping other socially conscious businesses in state.
A new way of business has begun and we are happy to see it happen. Even better news, in both NY and CA, the bills were able to pass without much object. This means the political and social climate is accepting of transparent business tactics and changes like these could take hold in other states. Now if only more states could come on board, Benefit corporations could flourish in our nation.

Back in August, Travis Kreiter made a list of goals he wanted to accomplish in the next year.
Back in August, Travis Kreiter made a list of goals he wanted to accomplish in the next year.
As his golf season began to unfold better than expected, the Brimfield senior decided to edit the list that hung on the family refrigerator.
"At first I had 'Top 5 At State,' " Kreiter said of the top entry on his lofty list of four golf goals. "But once I started (the season) and wasn't over par, I crossed it out and put 'State Champ' up there."
With a final-round 69, his lowest round in competition, Kreiter won the Class 1A state golf championship earlier this month at Prairie Vista Golf Course in Bloomington. His state title is just the second for a Brimfield individual or team and the first since Roland Griggs won consecutive pole vault championships in 1920-21.
It also gave Kreiter the edge over Peoria Christian senior Jonathan Hauter, a two-time winner, in what was a back-and-forth race for the 2008 Journal Star Golfer of the Year award.
"When it mattered most, (Hauter) always played better and beat me," Kreiter said of finishing behind the University of Illinois recruit at the regional and sectional tournaments. "But at state I played as well as I wanted to."
Kreiter, who on Nov. 12 will sign a letter of intent to play golf at Bradley, showed his steely resolve on the season's final day. Kreiter started the final round of the state tournament four shots off the lead. But with renewed confidence as a result of a positive practice session the night before, he hit his irons stiff and made nearly every putt.
He surged past the field, and when his closest competitors came unraveled on the final hole, Kreiter and his father/coach shared an embrace all fathers and sons should be so lucky to have.
"As his coach, of course I'm proud of him," said Kevin Kreiter, boys golf coach at Brimfield/Elmwood. "But as his dad, I can't tell you how much it means to see him get rewarded like this after all the work he's put in."
Kreiter's coronation as state champion was the crowning moment of a season, and a career, that showed consistent improvement.
As a freshman, Kreiter rode his team to the sectionals, where he shot 96. As a sophomore, he trimmed 19 shots off that sectional score, a season-low 77. He made the state finals, but finished 75th. Back as a junior, Kreiter finished tied for 14th, a result of his season's only round in the 80s.
Then there was 2008.
Kreiter started the summer by taking medalist honors at the Tri-County Junior Boys Championship. He earned Player of the Year honors in the Peoria Park District's junior tournament series. He won three other tournaments against statewide competition.
During scholastic competition, Kreiter won the Prairieland Conference title and the West Central Invitational. He also was medalist or co-medalist in each of the 11 matches he played, finishing those rounds at a total of 2-under par. Counting every hole he played this season, Kreiter finished his year one stroke above par.
"Everything is going the way I dreamed it would," he said, noting that he's received recognition in some unlikely places. "We went to dinner at Chili's one night and the door greeter told me 'Congratulations.'
"Everyone at school calls me 'Champ' now. It's pretty cool."

TALLAHASSEE — Lake Worth attorneys told the Florida Supreme Court Tuesday that the city`s takeover of the former Lake Worth Utilities Authority was justified because the authority was established in violation of the 1968 state constitution.
The appointed authority, which ran the city`s electric, water and sewer systems, was established by special act of the Legislature in 1969 -- at the request of the City Commission -- and approved by voters. The five-member authority served residents of Lake Worth, 13 nearby towns and the surrounding unincorporated area.
But last year, commissioners, who appointed authority members, decided the Legislature had violated the state constitution by granting the utilities authority powers which rightfully rest with elected city officials.
Commissioners dissolved the authority by emergency ordinance, without notice, on May 29. Three authority employees were fired, the authority`s attorneys were dismissed and the door locks were changed, as were the authorized signatures on the authority`s bank accounts.
Palm Beach Circuit Court Judge Vaughn J. Rudnick in July agreed with the city and rejected an appeal by the authority contending the city could not dissolve by ordinance what the Legislature had established by special act.
``It is the municipality -- and not the Legislature of the state of Florida -- which directs the operation and control of its constitutionally vested government functions, such as the operation of its police, fire and utility departments,`` Rudnick wrote in his opinion.
City Attorney James Adams told the justices Tuesday that the state constitution provides that each municipal legislative body be elected.
``This authority was a legislative power,`` he said. ``It could set rates and enter into long-term indebtedness. And its members were not elected.``
Asked why the City Commission changed its mind, Adams said the city is now run by a different commission.
``Fifteen years have gone by and different commissions see things differently,`` he said. ``This is purely a local matter. It shouldn`t be a statewide concern.``

The Thoroughbred entering the trailer as Josh Lyons watches.
Anyway, it was an amazing event and I highly recommend anyone who has horses to attend a Lyons clinic if ever you get a chance. This definitely ranks as one of the top things I've witnessed in my life.
Oh, and my panel. Not done. Almost though. I'm giving you a sneak peak but keep in mind I still have work to do and it will look very different, and the horse isn't done either. The background has been changed also since I took this photo. I'm also entertaining adding a purple blanket around Incitatus' legs, blowing in the wind, a necklace (see all in white chalk marks), and maybe even a crown since he was allegedly made a Roman senator. I want to add personal Incitatus and Caligula touches, otherwise, what's the point of making this horse Incitatus, right? So, there will be some touches of Caligula's eccentricity and madness. So, in the meantime, enjoy the photos, visit http://www.muralmosaic.com/ to see some completed panels, and be sure to visit http://www.lyonslegacy.com/ or http://www.lyonslegacy.ca/ . I'll be back soon! Good thing this was a quick post eh! ;-)

Kolkata: BJP leader and Union Minister Babul Supriyo was allegedly heckled by Trinamool Congress activists on Thursday when he along with his parents went to cast vote at a polling station in Kolkata. Nobody was arrested in connection with the incident and the Kolkata Police has initiated a probe into the matter.
A huge crowd gathered when Babul arrived at Arya Kanya Mahavidyalaya in the Sovabazar area to cast his vote along with his parents. The Union Minister of state for Urban Development faced opposition from alleged TMC activists who screamed "Go back, Go back" slogans "for attracting crowd" there following which, there was a spat between them.
Some protesters alleged that Babul was not a voter of the constituency and was "vitiating atmosphere".
"I came here to vote as a common man, not as a minister. There was not a single security person with me, nor any BJP worker. But, these people started protesting on something which was absolutely not needed," Babul said.
The Union Minister also alleged there were no police personnel present at the polling booth.
Supriyo also chased and caught hold of one of the activists who allegedly abused him while he was coming out of the booth after casting his vote.
"There was some protest by some people when Babul Supriyo arrived here today to cast his vote. We have heard that some persons also pushed him. Nobody has been arrested in connection with the incident. We are looking into the matter," a senior officer of the Kolkata Police said.

Don't Move a Mussel – Protecting BC Waters from the Impacts of Invasive Species
Description:Don't move a mussel – Protecting BC waters from the impacts of invasive species. Presenter: Lisa Scott, R.P.Bio. M.Sc. Additional Contributors: Okanagan and Similkameen Invasive Species Society (OASISS). The Okanagan and other areas of BC are at extreme risk for invasion of several aquatic species, most notably Zebra and Quagga mussels. Their arrival would be devastating to our drinking water systems, our environment and our economy. Invasive mussels have caused several billion dollars of damage to waterways and water infrastructure in the Great Lakes and across North America, including municipal water supplies and agricultural irrigation facilities. These European mussels rapidly colonize hard surfaces and clog water intake structures, such as pipes and screens, thereby impacting pumping capabilities for power and domestic water treatment plants. Invasion of these mussels into BC could result in control and management costs to our urban water infrastructure amounting to millions of dollars annually and have long term, detrimental consequences for the environment. Recently the Federal Government has recognized the challenge by empowering Canadian Border Services Agency to deny mussel-infested boats entry into Canada. However, the mussels are moving quicker than either the Federal or Provincial Governments can act. Consequently, regional groups and local governments are spearheading prevention programs to educate recreational boaters and other water users, and monitor local waterways. Learn more about the costs and challenges faced by other utilities and how to prevent the spread of invasive mussels into BC.

Inland Seas Education Summer Sailing/Science Program
Our Young Women in STEM and the Young Men in STEM programs have openings for high school-aged students (just finished 8th – 12th grades) who are interested in science and outdoor adventure to join us for a 3-day journey on the Great Lakes aboard our Schooner. The trip gives participants a chance to examine the ecology of the Great Lakes using professional limnology equipment, and to design and carry out their own research projects. All the while participants take turns as crew to sail and navigate a traditionally rigged sailing vessel.

While many at the royal wedding have admitted to spending months planning their outfits, I'm told Princess Michael of Kent, who is more used to such occasions, waited until the last moment before finalising hers.
Opting for the shoe designer Vanessa Noel, who is also a favourite with the cast of Sex and the City, Princess Michael requested her made-to-order heels from New York only a couple of weeks before the wedding.
"The lateness of it was a shock," says Michael Thom, Noel's executive assistant. "We were back and forth with the dyers to get the colour exactly right to match her dress. We shipped them last Thursday to Kensington Palace."
At 66, Princess Michael showed she is not too old yet to have a little fun with fashion. The shoes, which are called Spice, were given a "sexy V-notch" which was "cut to show some toe cleavage".
Sir Henry picks up wedding tips
Sir Henry Boyd-Carpenter, the Queen's former private solicitor, was "glued to the television set" during the royal wedding on Friday.
His daughter, Alexandra, has accepted a marriage proposal from John Murphy, a 35-year-old bloodstock insurance broker, and Sir Henry was hoping to pick up a few tips. "We had royal wedding overload," says Alexandra, 31, a personal assistant at a public relations company. Sir Henry, who is retired, is organising the wedding himself and it will be held at his house in Wales later this year. "He loves doing it all," his daughter tells me. "It will be up to him how big it is."
Alexandra, a law graduate, met Murphy three years ago on a blind date arranged by her boss. "They thought John would be my Mr Darcy," she says. "It is all very exciting."
Rowan's poem music to the ears
After admitting to being "relieved" that he was not asked to create music for the royal wedding, the Queen's composer, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies, reveals one of the projects that has been taking up his time instead.
"I'm working on a poem by Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury," the Master of the Queen's Music tells me. "It is a poem he wrote called Advent Calendar. I'm doing it for the Queen's Jubilee.
"I think Rowan Williams is a wonderful poet."
Sir Peter had already begun thinking about what he would compose for the royal wedding before he realised he was not going to be asked. He said, however, that he was so busy with other projects "it was probably the best way out for me".

Back home in Pune, like many medium-class households, we have one television set, and usually the remote control is in the hands of mom in the morning for the share market news and in evening/night with dad for news and some sit-coms. 99% of the times it is SAB TV channel playing out at our home. So I sometimes miss out watching How I Met Your Mother, Two and a Half Men or the re-runs of other English sit-coms. Torrent downloads or swapping hard-disks did enable for some viewing on the computer, but with the available time it usually ended up in watching a couple of episodes of a season. With quite a lot of free time over the weekend here I am getting myself immersed in all the shows I love. I am currently on the Season 5 of Two and a Half Men, Season 5 of How I Met Your Mother and Season 4 of That 70s Show, apart from Season 3 of 24. Though I do like a couple of characters from FRIENDS, I am not very much fond of the overall show as such. A friend here wanted me to start with LOST, but I haven't yet. I prefer the comedy genre over the others. By the way, there was a character with the name Sudeep in one of the episodes of HIMYM :-)
We had a team builder event on one of the Fridays last month. It was supposed to be a bowling alley event with a positive response from 95% of the team members on the first day itself. But somehow the plan changed to go to a food bank as volunteers. The second day the responses dropped to 5%. I was also in the 'not coming' category because I was not sure if I was going to be comfortable handling non-vegetarian food items while serving there, and did not want to be a volunteer who turned up to do nothing. Then there was an episode of HIMYM in which the characters Ted and Robin sift through dry & packed boxes of food items in a food bank. So I made a call to the organizer and she said that all food items will be sealed and there would be no actual food serving there. Also another colleague insisted that since everyone sits at different locations it would be a good chance to interact with others considering that I had recently moved and very few in the team knew me. So I went to the team builder event and there were many who did not know what was to be done at the food bank.
She (seated next to Me at the assembly-point table): Hi! I am She.
Me: Hi! I am Me.
She: Whose team are you working with?
Me: X's team.
She: It is such a bad turnout for this event.
Me: Hmm, the bowling thing would have been more fun for everyone.
She: Do you know what is to be done here?
Me: I have a very faint idea, but do you know how I met your mother?
She (ecstatic): OMG, you are from Chennai? How and when did you meet my mother?
Me: Err that didn't turn out the way I was saying…
There were many other groups for volunteering and every group was assigned to a different area in the food bank. By the way, all that our group did was prepare the paper bags for the food delivery.

Train horn kits aren't just for trucks and cars. These motorcycle train horns may be small but they can be heard from distances away. These train horn kits were designed to work with the limited installation space available for motorcycles, foregoing the frills and condensing the most essential elements of freight train horn sound for your enjoyment.
These direct drive train horns do away with a separate holding air tank. The mini pump is continuous and the horn will sound when activated. These kits are appropriate for motorcycles, RVs, hot rods, boats or anywhere a full system is not feasible. Not as loud as a true high pressure tank/train horn compressor system but it's got that air horn sound and is plenty loud to boot!
On all Purchases. Typically packages ship within 24 hrs.
Expert advice on everything we offer (Since 1991)
"I've cobbled together a train horn setup on my truck before, but the kit I bought from TrainHorn.org (Tempest Train Horn Kit) came with very high quality parts. Install was simple and the horns work flawlessly. Well worth it to buy the kit complete."
- Danny M. (Kirksville, MO)
"The train horn I got from trainhorn.org was the real deal. The Nathan AirChime K5LA 5 Gallon Kit was the missing piece to completing my custom truck. Nothing comes close to the authentic train sound produced by the Nathan train horns. it was worth every penny."
- Brett D. (El Paso, TX)

Fatal Kent family stabbing: 'He asked me if I was going to die'
NEIGHBOURS have described the last words from the tragic victims of a horror knife fight in which two were killed.
Mum–of-three Natasha Sadler and reported boyfriend Simon Grecki were victims in the horror stab attack that hospitalised two others yesterday evening.
A 53-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday evening at the house in Dickens Avenue, Canterbury and is being held by cops.
Police said the suspect and victims knew each other but were not related.
"He asked me if he was going to die"Neighbour Rab Hendry
Sadler's 17-year-old son remains in a critical condition after he was rushed to hospital after officers arrived on the scene at around 7.39pm
Another 20-year-old who was injured in the fight has been discharged.
Natasha, mum to three boys aged 20, 16, and five, is believed to have been born in Margate.
Her Son Connaugh, 20, is a soldier in the British Army, according to his Facebook page.
Neighbour Katie Christopher thas told how she tried to help a young boy who had been stabbed in the stomach.
KENT 999s
She said: "We were just indoors and my partner said 'oh there's a lot of commotion' I'll run up and look and my daughter said someone's been stabbed so I went to get some towels.
"We found a young boy slumped on the ground who had been stabbed in the stomach and there was a guy with my husband holding onto his tummy.
"I just held onto his head and said please stay with me, don't die.
"I don't know the family but I did what anyone would do which is run and help."
Rab Hendry, 50, says he saw two people at the scene, whom he believes were brothers, with stab wounds one in the stomach and another in the arm.
Rab said: "I got the young fella to the ground, sat him up and I put towels on his wounds.
"He kept flopping to the side and I kept speaking to him.
"He asked me if he was going to die and I said no, the ambulance is on its way."

The Apple + IBM partnership began last year, and matches Apple's software design and development talents with IBM's enterprise relationships. Today's releases include eight apps, four of which are the first of these apps for the healthcare industry. There are also new apps for the industrial products, retail, and insurance industries.
From the Apple + IBM website:
- Hospital RN: Frees staff nurses from multiple pagers and phones, and gives them the ability to access any patient's records from anywhere in the hospital. With iBeacon technology, Hospital RN accurately identifies patients by location so nurses can easily access their records and provide appropriate care.
- Hospital Lead: Push notifications deliver escalated tasks efficiently, so they can be assigned to a staff member with a tap. Prioritized task lists allow issues to be reported, delayed, delegated, or marked complete. And the intuitive dashboard combines multiple hospital databases into a single view, which makes complex actions like patient discharges easy.
- Hospital Tech: The Hospital Tech app for iPhone keeps nurse technicians closely connected to their care teams, so patient tasks are handled quickly and safely — and help is always a swipe away. Hospital Tech provides a real-time view of lab status, safety alerts, patient requests, and delegated tasks by accessing the hospital's systems of record so nurse technicians always know exactly where to go and what to do. When shifts change, the next nurse technician is ready to hit the ground running.
- Home RN: iPhone and iOS make it easy for nurses to add photos, videos, text, and audio notes to the patient's record. Push notifications to the patient's care team make sharing progress simple and fast. Location-based services built into iOS help nurses find patients' homes and nearby pharmacies, urgent care centers, and labs. Home RN ushers in a whole new way to deliver home health care without all the paperwork, in a completely mobile workflow
- Rapid Handover: Critical data including production goals, equipment maintenance, and crew lists are available at a glance in the moment of engagement. The photo and dictation capabilities on iPad capture issues like broken equipment and safety hazards. When a new shift begins, the incoming foreperson simply signs in to the app and immediately can see where the previous shift left off — saving valuable production time.
- Ancillary Sale: Flight attendants can sell seat upgrades, food and beverages, and duty-free merchandise — all while in the air. And passengers can conveniently complete the transaction with Apple Pay or the swipe of a credit card via in-flight point-of-sale systems. The app also recalls passengers' previous on-board purchases so flight attendants can recommend similar food and beverage items based on past preferences.
- Order Commit: Merchants can access important metrics on financial targets and sell-through while in the office or on market trips. By integrating with the camera on iPad, the app lets merchants take photos of products and model performance against items with similar features.
- Risk Inspect: With the camera on iPad, inspectors can capture photo and video of any site while on the job. Intelligent analytics suggest risk areas to focus on, and provide instant access to claim history, environmental and structural data, as well as neighborhood crime statistics.
Apple and IBM launched their initial wave of apps MobileFirst apps back in December 2014, and the companies have recently launched MobileFirst apps in Japan. You can check out all of the available apps on the Apple + IBM website at the link below.

Cut the yarn, leaving a 12 inch tail. Thread on a needle and pull through the loops on the pegs.
Take the loops off the pegs. Pull the yarn tail tight. This will gather all the stitches to make the bottom of the bag. Do a couple of slip stitches in the bottom to tie off.
Ears: Wrap the yarn on 5 pegs and work back and forth, using these five pegs until you have knitted 7 inches.
Remove in the same method as the purse. Tie off. The top of the ears will be the tied-off end. -- Make 2 of these.
Handle: Use the same method, but only 3 pegs.
Work back and forth on these 3 pegs until you have 12 inches for short handle or 48 inches for long handle (remember that the handle may stretch, so you can make it a little shorter).
Sewing the parts together: Laying the purse flat, pin one side of the handle to the left inside top of the bag.
Pin the other side to the right inside top of bag.
Using only the Baby Cloud yarn, thread the needle and sew handle ends in place.
Place each ear next to the front of each handle; pin and sew in place.
Thread the ribbon on the needle and sew 1 inch from the top, starting in the center front and sewing completely around the bag.
This makes a draw-string effect to close the purse.
Pom-poms: Using the Knifty Knitter Pom-pom maker, you can choose the size you would like for the nose and the cheeks.
Glue the cheeks on using the glue gun and placing them close together. Glue the pink pom-pom in the middle of the cheek pom-poms.

Now that the seven-month tantrum over Russia has pretty much petered out into nothingness, the grown-ups from the Democratic Party have unveiled a new weapon to obstruct President Trump with: a lawsuit.
Almost 200 Democratic lawmakers are suing President Donald Trump over foreign money flowing into his global business empire.
A total of 196 senators and representatives are plaintiffs in a lawsuit alleging Trump is violating the so-called emoluments clause of the Constitution.
It is to be filed early on Wednesday in US District Court for the District of Columbia, the lawmakers said.
The plaintiffs argue they have standing to sue because the clause says only Congress may approve foreign gifts and payments.
'The framers gave Congress a unique role, a unique right and responsibility,' Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal said.
Although Trump turned over control of his real estate development, management and marketing company to his adult sons and a senior executive, he did not divest from it.
That means he stands to benefit financially from the Trump Organization's profits, including from foreign governments.
Since he has become president, the Trump Organization has secured dozens of potentially valuable patents, including in China, and collected fees from lobbyists working for Saudi Arabia and other countries using his properties.
The new suit – the third of its kind – said the full scope of foreign payments to the Trump Organization cannot be known because the president has not made public his tax returns.
Let's face it, they know this isn't going anywhere, and it's just a pathetic attempt to obstruct and deter Trump from getting anything done. If the roles were reversed all we would hear about is how much the GOP is obstructing, they'd be facing a backlash, blah blah blah. But the fake news media will run with this and pound Trump over the head with it.
They can't get over losing to him and will never, ever recognize him as legitimate.
