With two and a half Elite Series tournaments left this year, everyone is still fishing for something – everything from the AOY, to requalifying to just plain pride. If the season were to end today, young Bradley Roy would be our AOY, and the usual suspects like AMart, KVD, Skeet, Palaniuk, Swindle and Hackney would be in the Classic. So would Mike Iaconelli, who I earlier speculated might end his long streak if he missed the Sabine River tournament due to a scheduling conflict.
There's still a bit of elasticity in how many Elites will qualify through the senior tour, but if we assume that the cutoff is right around 40th, then there will be some longtime Classic staples left on the outside looking in:
- 42nd, Edwin Evers: 2016 Champ, 17 Classic appearance, 8 in a row;
- 43rd, James Elam: rising star, 3 consecutive Classics;
- 44th, Randall Tharp: 4 Classic appearances, 5 consecutive Forrest Wood Cup appearances, 2013 Champ;
- 47th, Bill Lowen: 9 Classic appearances, 7 in a row until missing the 2018 event;
- and 50th, Randy Howell: 2014 Champ, 16 Classic appearances, 7 in a row.
The pain doesn't stop there. Keith Combs, who's made 7 Classics, including five in a row, and two Forrest Wood Cups before that, and every TTBC since the Battle of San Jacinto, is in 60th.
Brandon Coulter, Brandon Lester and Brandon Card – the three Brandons – are all almost certainly desperate to make a Tennessee Classic.
The good news, and the bad news – we won't know that it is for any particular angler until the scales close in September at Chatuge Lake – is that the points race is always in flux. It's harder to make a major jump in the standings now than it was after Lake Martin, but there's still room for lots of movement. Combs, in 60th, is just 39 points out of 50th, the position that he'll need to occupy after the St. Lawrence to make it to the AOY championship. Howell, in 50th, is just 14 points out of 40th, the status he'll probably need to attain to make it to the Classic. Evers, in 42nd, is less than a hundred points out of the top 10.
Any angler who can string together a couple of top twelves can put the subpar first half of the season in the rearview mirror. They can only control what they themselves catch – and there are a lot of moving parts that have to fall into place for someone to move 20 or 30 places. Nevertheless, I'm going to cut out the current standings and compare them to how they sit at season's end. I think there will be a few surprises.

We were made for these times
There is a lot of uncertainty in our world right now. I am keenly aware of a feeling of insecurity both within myself and in those around me. How do we make sense of the changes in our nation's political and economic landscape? And how might they impact our daily lives? We just don't know. Not to mention the unknown impacts of changes, often unbidden, in our work and personal lives. That not knowing can be difficult to tolerate. But what if we are up to the task of tolerating all of this uncertainty and not-knowingness?
Guess what? We are! We are made for these times: socially, politically, and personally, too. The author Clarissa Pinkola Estes states it this way: "I urge you, ask you, gentle you, to please not spend your spirit dry by bewailing these difficult times. Especially do not lose hope. Most particularly because, the fact is that we were made for these times. Yes. For years, we have been learning, practicing, been in training for and just waiting to meet on this exact plain of engagement."
What a hopeful and empowering message: regardless of whatever comes our way, we have been preparing for it. One of my favorite metaphors for navigating this journey of life is sailing a ship. Estes expands on that image of being a ship, saying, "Even though your veneers may shiver from every wave in this stormy roil, I assure you that the long timbers composing your prow and rudder come from a greater forest. That long-grained lumber is known to withstand storms, to hold together, to hold its own, and to advance, regardless."
We are strong. We can hold our own. Even when parts of us don't feel strong. It is these difficult, stormy times in our lives that help us to discover and experience our strength.
Estes reminds us: "When a great ship is in harbor and moored, it is safe, there can be no doubt. But that is not what great ships are built for." You CAN handle the choppy waters of life, now and in the future. Take heart, and move forward in your life, into the midst of unknowing. You are not alone on this journey; look around, and see all of the other ships around you. You are a great ship, made for this journey. Made for these times, exactly.

WSP appointed to major transportation study launched into M1 junctions 33 & 34Published Tuesday, 30th May 2017
Professional services and engineering consultancy WSP has been appointed by Sheffield City Council in partnership with Rotherham Borough Council to lead on a study.
That will define the business case for a Sheffield City Region 'Innovation Corridor'.
The company will assess the options and develop plans to reduce congestion and improve connectivity between Sheffield and Rotherham to maximise the potential for growth of the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District (AMID).
The study will seek to reduce pressure on both J33 and J34 of the M1 by exploring options to provide alternatives to the M1 for local traffic, and potentially provide additional routes between Sheffield and Rotherham without the need for drivers to pass through existing motorway junctions.
WSP will provide a range of specialist services including transport modelling, environmental impact assessment, flood risk and ecology in conducting a feasibility and economic appraisal to create a viable scheme that can be funded by the Department for Transport (DfT) through its Large Local Major Scheme Fund, as announced in the 2016 Autumn Statement. The study also is supported by local stakeholders, Highways England and the Sheffield City Region LEP.
The Innovation Corridor, located between Sheffield and Rotherham and based around Junctions 33 and 34, is home to a number of businesses and University centres. It houses the new factories for McLaren and Boeing, the Advanced Manufacturing Park and Factory 2050. It has the potential to play a critical role nationally and internationally as the place for leading manufacturers to come for research, production and industrial collaboration.
In November last year, Sheffield City Council announced a £1.4million programme to improve capacity around the two junctions of the M1. Tom Finnegan-Smith, Head of Highways and Transport at Sheffield City Council said:
"We are pleased to announce this major new review of capacity issues around AMID which will provide an opportunity to deliver transformational infrastructure that will ultimately improve accessibility in and around the area for the benefit of the whole City Region. Tackling capacity problems in the area will enable the economy to achieve its full potential around the Innovation Corridor and throughout the Lower Don Valley between Sheffield and Rotherham."
Poor connectivity into and around the AMID has been identified by the Council as a key priority in its aim to attract more companies to move there, enabling people and businesses across the Sheffield City Region to access new opportunities in growing markets. Improved transport links will also help facilitate improved access between rapidly emerging economic growth sites in the area which include almost 4,000 new homes at Waverley and further commercial developments at the Sheffield Airport Business Park.
Commented Mike Holmes, technical director at WSP in Leeds: "We need to facilitate the strategic infrastructure required to support the City Region's aspirations to create the UK's largest research-led Advanced Manufacturing cluster which has the potential to be its primary economic driver and a major part of the Northern Powerhouse. Current capacity issues are only set to increase as more businesses and residents locate in the area which already suffers from a lack of good public transport links. It's vital that we find deliverable solutions to improve connectivity by road and sustainable transport options, whilst anticipating the future growth of the site."
Sir Nigel Knowles, Chair of Sheffield City Region LEP, said: "This important transport study on two major motorway junctions in Sheffield City Region is excellent news. The Sheffield City Region Innovation Corridor is an important project for our region and for the country and the investment in the study demonstrates recognition by Government that our region needs infrastructure investment to unlock its true economic potential. Connectivity is key to developing a centre of business excellence, and this funding will enable us to continue building a better-connected economy which works for businesses and residents."
Over the next 18 months WSP will carry out a series of studies incorporating regular stakeholder engagement. The final report will be presented to the Sheffield City Region who will submit the outline business case to the Department for Transport (DfT) next year. A detailed design and formal planning process will follow.
Rotherham Council's Strategic Director of Regeneration and Environment Damien Wilson said: "We are very proud to see the Advanced Manufacturing and Innovation District fast becoming the UK centre of excellence for research, manufacturing and technology. The AMID is ideally situated in the heart of the UK and this funding will allow us to investigate and put a good case forward for an improved infrastructure to support this expanding area, leading to faster journeys and promoting further future growth across the region."

About the Superfund Redevelopment Initiative
This nationally coordinated effort provides EPA and its partners with a process to return Superfund sites to productive use. Learn more at Superfund Redevelopment Initiative.
Redevelopment at the Site
The RSR Corporation Superfund site is in a residential and commercial area of West Dallas, Texas. The site spans a former lead smelter, several landfills and a 13.6-square-mile area investigated for lead contamination. Land uses include residential neighborhoods, public housing areas and some light industrial and commercial businesses. RSR Corporation operated a lead smelter on site from the 1920s until 1984. The company disposed of waste materials on site and in area landfills. The smelter also sent lead-contaminated smog into the surrounding community. Studies confirmed high blood-lead levels for residents and children living near the smelter. In 1995, EPA placed the site on the Superfund program's National Priorities List (NPL). Cleanup activities prioritized the smelter facility, area landfills, affected residential areas and parks. EPA and the Dallas Housing Authority (DHA) removed lead-contaminated soil and buildings from a DHA public-housing area located northeast of the smelter. EPA and DHA cleaned up over 400 properties from 1991 to 1994. Cleanup of these areas resulted in lowered blood-lead levels for children and residents living in West Dallas. Cleanup also facilitated redevelopment. Portions of the DHA area now include new commercial businesses. The 275,000-square-foot headquarters for Goodwill Industries of Dallas is located on site. Cleanup of other portions of the site, including the former smelter facility and disposal areas, is now complete. EPA issued Ready for Reuse Determinations for the smelter facility and disposal areas in 2006 to facilitate future redevelopment. Ongoing uses include churches, parks, primary and secondary schools, commercial businesses and a community YMCA.
Economic Activity at the Site
As of December 2018, EPA had data on 59 on-site businesses. These businesses employed 917 people and generated an estimated $74,915,875 in annual sales revenue. View additional information about redevelopment economics at Superfund sites.

I had a very hockey-obsessed day yesterday, while everyone else was winding down from the Stanley Cup final. I wrote about the new hockey writer at Grantland, Katie Baker over at Brutish&Short (she's awesome). Then I blog-stalked her, and came across the HBO series from last winter 24/7 NHL Road the Winter Classic, which I had totally forgotten about. I watched all four hours of it yesterday and it was so good! The show gives a behind the scenes look at the Penguins and the Caps during the month of December, and from it I learned the following things:
- Sidney Crosby may be even whinier than I initially suspected. He complains at the refs nonstop.
- Alexander Ovechkin, surprisingly does not complain at the refs as much as I would think. I suppose this is because he grew up in the Soviet Union and was taught to fear/respect authority maybe? I can imagine the punishment over there as a child for ignoring your coach or the refs would be belt-whipping, or some kind other kind of lashing.
- I heart Bruce Boudreau. Big time. He's a sweetheart with a foul-mouth — I'm pretty sure he swears more than I do. Also, I like his coaching style; when his players were all down about a losing streak he tells them "You could be anywhere. You play fucking hockey for a living. Lighten up. Having some fucking fun here."
- Dan Bylsma is also an awesome coach, although significantly less profane.
- The Penguins seem to be a really nice group of guys, with the massive exception of Matt Cooke — now that I've had a glimpse behind the scenes it's even more puzzling why/how Bylsma and Lemieux let him get away with these garbage hits. They seem like classy guys and a classy organization. Get the fuck rid of Cooke.
I really hope HBO does this again – it would be awesome/terrifying to see a Habs Leafs miniseries. Hal Gill, that beauty, would definitely invite the whole TV crew over to his place for a dinner party, and between him and PK Subban, the antics would make for some great television.

Join our time-traveling heroes from the Tennis Shoes Adventure Series as they stand ready to take part in one of the most intense, supercharged, and harrowing contests in all of Book of Mormon history.
Surrounded by more than a million Lamanites and Gadianton robbers, Joshua, Harry, Apollus, Meagan, Garth, Steffanie, and many other favorite Tennis Shoes characters brace themselves with the Nephite nation for the promised day of violence and thunder. For four long years, the prophet Mormon has guided his people into making the Hill Cumorah an impregnable fortress against any adversary, but conflict and corruption among the Nephites threatens to undermine all of Mormon's efforts and make everyone — including our characters—vulnerable for disaster.
Drums of Desolation is a novel of herculean ambition, serving as a sequel not only for Tennis Shoes Adventure Series: Sorcerers and Seers, but also for Passage to Zarahemla and Escape from Zarahemla, combining characters and struggles from both of Chris Heimerdiner's epic series of Book of Mormon adventures.
Featuring nail-biting suspense and nonstop action, Drums of Desolation stand as one of the most important fictional studies ever undertaken of the most climactic and heart-breaking episode in the Book of Mormon. Fasten up for the thrill ride of your life — an adventure that will carry you from the depths of despair to the glorious triumphs of the human spirit in the midst of one of the most complex and sinister centuries every experiences in the New World.Tennis Shoes Adventure Series: Drums of Desolation
My favorite book
These books are so cool
I LOVE YOUR BOOKS!!!!!! When does book 13 come out?
I can't wait for the next book. I'm dying to know what happens next . oh this wait is going to drive me nuts. Please Chris Please publish # 13 soon
I have been following this series since the first printing in 1989. The series continues to thrill and entertain many readers including my family. I LOVE that it brings the scriptures alive and helps my mind grasp the stories so much better. I also LOVE the time travel aspect. How fun and intriguing it would be to travel back to Nephite times.
The adventures continue in this EPIC tale as you travel through rifts in time and space into the land of the Nephites and the Lamanites....beware of the Gadianton Robbers!
As the synopsis states this book combines characters from both the Tennis Shoes series and the Zarahemla series. I highly suggest you read at least a few of the Tennis Shoes books and at least the first book in the Zarahemla series BEFORE you read this book.
You will also find "chapter notes" explaining more details...which I really appreciate.
I absolutely recommend this series for the entire family!

As a 501c3, our mission is to provide education, thought leadership and connectivity to create sustainable and meaningful change in women's lives. We are also focused on creating a community that spurs dialogue, action and transformation by enlightening and empowering women through the sharing of their collective knowledge and influence, and by tapping the wisdom of preeminent thinkers and industry pioneers.
As women are now living longer than ever before in society, we are focused on ensuring that the interface of health and wealth is fully understood by our community. We will explore all resources to ensure that the cogent information, access to critical resources and knowledge to live a healthy, productive and purposeful life, are readily available to us.
In July, 2018, WHAM! (Women's Health Access Matters) was launched in Aspen as an initiative of AccessCircles to focus on increasing awareness of women's health issues and implementing strategies that will improve the inequities and bias in research and accelerate scientific discovery in women's health. We are passionate about women's health and the impact that we know can be made if research reflects how men and women are different down to the cellular level. Visit www.whamnow.org for more information.
AccessCircles has consistently hosted Health and Wellness Forums in Aspen (July), and either Miami or Palm Beach (January). Throughout the years AccessCircles has hosted over 300 transformational experiences. In addition, private retreats (50-300 women) have been hosted at exclusive resorts and unique venues around the world for our community and our alliance partners.
We are committed to improving the health and wellbeing of women and transforming their medical care through the discovery, dissemination, and integration of sex and gender-based differences and the application of this knowledge to the delivery of care. With a focus on building awareness of Gender Precision Medicine, we intend to impact issues related to women's health and gender biology and for advocating for changes in public policy to improve the health of women by advancing the new field of Gender Precision Medicine.
AccessCircles was founded by Carolee Lee, the former CEO and founder of Carolee Designs, one of the world's leading accessories brands. After the sale of her business in 2001, Carolee focused her passion and energy on women's health and life planning issues with a vision to create AccessCircles.
Lynn Connelly, a leading marketing executive and former LPGA professional, with a passion for educating women on the importance of living a proactive life of wellness, joined Carolee as a founding partner in January of 2007.

What an amazing journey we had at ArtisGras in Palm Beach County, FL! The town of Jupiter was amazingly beautiful and the weather was 78 degrees and perfect every sunny day of the show. The load in and out was second to none and I certainly plan on coming back if they will have me.
The journey down to Jupiter was phenomenal surf wise! The surf was so big the beginning of the swell just before the show, but I opted to go further south to see if it would be bigger. As they say, be careful what you hope for, and was I shocked! The size was beyond humanly doable in the water even with the strong off shore winds. There was no one in the water from Melbourne, Indian Harbor, south, with the exception of Sebastian Inlet and Monster Hole which was not for the faint of heart. At my age, monster hole is out of the question.
We left Monster Hole and headed to Juno, stopping to witness the massive swells along the way. When we got to Jupiter, I went right to the inlet and the waves were insanely huge breaking out as far as the eye could see. Only Juno Pier looked somewhat doable however there were no takers due to the intensity of the rip currents and massive sized swells.

A double rainbow in Honolulu.
This is the view today from The Aloha Classic 2016 host hotel the Waikiki Sand Villa. If you're staying there and get a mountain view room, this is what you may see daily. In the distance beyond the rainbow it Manoa Valley (the home of the University of Hawaii Manoa campus). The valley is very rainy, but the rain rarely makes it into Waikiki.

Scriptures: Acts 2:14, 36-41; Psalm 116:1-4, 12-19; 1 Peter 1:17-23 and Luke 24:13-35
As we continue the celebration of the risen Christ into the celebration of Pentecost, we can reflect how these two gifts-the risen Christ and the Holy Spirit-are the mainstays of our faith. This faith was made possible not with perishable things like silver or gold but with the imperishable loving sacrifice of Christ.
We read of the two disciples on their way to Emmaus, how their hearts burned within them at his words and their recognition of the risen Christ while breaking bread. Then we read of Pentecost and the receiving of the promised Holy Spirit. They are intertwined. The Holy Spirit illumins our eyes to perceive the risen Christ, who is our source of life, joy, peace and love.
Brennan Manning, in his book, 'Abba's Child,' uses the term 'present risenness.' The risen Christ is present in us and with us just as he was with the two on their way to Emmaus. Manning says our awareness of this present risenness changes everything and allows us to cope with anything. Today, in sharing the Word, songs and communion, let us be aware of Jesus' present risenness among us.

"Close to two decades in the executive search industry, and I still get an incredible kick from identifying 'the one' – that special spark of recognition that this is the right person to lead and grow our client's business."
Not surprising then that her love is for the challenge and adventure of searching for the needle in the haystack, the hen's tooth, the blue moon, the perfect fit!
Why? A recent client case tells us. A new leader placed in South Africa for a global client, doubled their business in Africa within a year. Barbara (Barbs, as we call her), is compelled to identify leaders who grow businesses.
Barbara is one of South Africa's most experienced executive search researchers and headhunters. It would be tough to find a leadership role she hasn't had exposure to, and the depth of her industry knowledge and corporate network is enviable.
She has turned her dream of living a more balanced, pastoral (yes, you read that correctly) life into a reality, and operates remotely from the farm she and her husband own on the Garden Route. From Jack Hammer's 'Garden Route office', she sends photos daily of new blooms, birds and other farmy things to her city-slicker colleagues.

MEMS Promotional Video
Metro East Montessori School wanted to grow awareness about their unique approach to education.
In my initial interviews with the principal and board, I identified that the school succeeded in retaining students from one year to the next, but struggled to attract new families with young children. Then I observed in the youngest classroom—a child-sized world designed for exploration. The self-confidence of the children, and the dignity with which teachers like Steph treat them, was inspiring.
The resulting video was viewed over 60,000 times. Parents of prospective students referenced it when visiting the school; the Montessori community embraced it for showcasing their approach to education with beauty and wonder; and teacher in the video was even interviewed by her university's alumni magazine due in large part to its popularity.

Camp Between the Rivers
From August 20 to 23, we stayed at the "Camp between the rivers," a camp of the Siberian Evangelical Lutheran Church. The camp is located between the White Ius and Black Ius Rivers.
The Ius River is beautiful and considered to have pure water. It served as a good location for the camp near the village of Efremkino (Ефремкино) in Khakassia, Siberia, Russia.
A map of the area. The town of Efremkino (Ефремкино) is pictured in the lower left corner of the map. Near the camp is the "Path of the Ancestors," which is a place where a Paleolithic culture lived.
Inside one of the caves, were cave paintings nearly 4,000 years old. The paintings on the wall represented human beings and a god with four eyes. The caves were discovered by Pyotr Proskuryakov in 1883. Animal bones were found inside the cave indicating that sacrifices had been made to the god in the past.
Further along the trail, a Shaman's tree had ribbons on it indicating petitions to the spirits. This is similar to the other places in Siberia where sacrifices were made to the spirits.
The trail itself was rugged at times. However the view was worth the effort.
At another portion of the trail, we came upon an unusual artifact.
Nearby a cave that we came out of was some runic writing on the rock face. It was discovered in 1883 by Pyotr Proskuryakov's expedition, but the runic script was not deciphered until the early 20th century. The runic script encoder a Turkish based language. The inscription reads: "I greet you Altu Shan, my state and my Han (prince). I am Agdam Enal. My people are Tersye. I have come down from the mountains and have found out ." A debate ensued among scholars regarding the name of Tersye. This is a Khakassia word of Turkish origin. This is from a Syriac word used to designate a Christian. Other Syriac words such as Mar for teacher appear in other texts. Kyrgyz people were Christian around the 7 – 10th centuries. Additional evidence for Christian roots can be found in Khakassia language, for instance the Tarcha River, literally means "the Christian River." The name of this river comes from Tarcha Khyz. Khyz means young lady. According to Khakassian tales, Tarcha Khyz was the young woman who lead the Kyrgyz people in battle against the Mongolians. She was shot by an arrow and killed on the banks of the Tarcha River, hence it's name. This legend goes back to the 10th century. The history of Christians in Khakassia ends with the Mongolian invasion. This invasion drove the people of Kyrgyz Kaganate (predecessors of Khakasian people) into Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. How did these people become Christian? Most likely by the Nestorians who were forced out of the Persian Empire onto the Great Step. They came to Khakassia as missionaries.
Pastor Pavel Zayakin explained the history of the "Path of the Ancestors" to us as we hiked along the path. It was very fascinating hearing the story of early Christianity in the 7 – 10th centuries.
Back at the "Camp between two rivers" each day was book ended by morning and evening worship. Lectures were held during the day.
The Siberian Evangelical Lutheran Church's "Camp Between the Rivers" is structured after a Poligon, literally in English, a polygon. It has the practical sense of a training field or proving ground for soldiers or athletes. The camp is set up to train the hearts, minds, and bodies of young people to be Christians in this world, hence hiking, works of service, worship, study and camping.
The camp is rustic, but a wonderful opportunity to study, meditate, and enjoy the Lord's creation.
Pastors Pavel Zayakin and Alexey Streltsov of the Siberian Evangelical Lutheran Church (SELC) hosted and accompanied (listed alphabetically) Rev. Dr. Albert Collver, LCMS Director of Church Relations; Rev. Randy Golter, Executive Director of the Office of International Mission; Rev. Daniel Johnson, Catechist to Siberia and Baltic churches; Rev. Dr. Timothy Quill, LCMS Director of Theological Education and Professor at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne.

Politics & Government
Legal claim asks Tacoma to refund $21 million spent on Click
A former Tacoma mayor, a former city attorney and a former Tacoma Public Utilities director are among those who filed a legal claim against the city this week, asking that Tacoma Power be reimbursed for what they claim is $21 million in subsidies to Click Cable TV during the past several years.
The claim says Tacoma Power has been "unlawfully subsidizing both the capital expenses and the operational and maintenance expenses of the commercial telecommunications business of the Click! Network ... for many years."
Click, a subsidiary of Tacoma Power, has been losing millions of dollars a year, according to TPU management. Click general manager Tenzin Gyaltsen has said that the cable system's costs exceeded revenues by $8.9 million in 2015 and 2016.
The claim appears to stem from Tacoma Public Utilities board's vote last fall on a funding plan for Click's expansion into selling retail phone and broadband internet service directly to customers. That funding plan assumes Click won't operate in the black initially, and directs Tacoma Power to support Click with $6 to $10 million in annual subsidies until it gets on its feet.
Former assistant city attorney Mark Bubenik, who worked for TPU, sent the utility board a letter the week of that vote saying the subsidy was illegal, and warning about potential future legal action. Claims are often precursors to lawsuits.
Click's infrastructure does provide some benefit to Tacoma Power, which uses it to communicate with substations and the utility's smart meters. But there is disagreement about how much Click's wires aid the electric utility, and how much Tacoma Power should have to fund Click as a result. That debate is part of the reason for a pair of audits the City Council ordered of the Click network last fall, which are underway.
The claim alleges that Tacoma Power is contributing more toward Click than it gets in legitimate benefit, said Seattle-based attorney Dave Jurca, who filed the claim on behalf of Bubenik, former mayor Mike Crowley and former TPU director Ted Coates, among others.
To the extent that some of that network is used to support the electric utility we have no problem with it, but it's the amount in excess of that that we have a problem with.
Dave Jurca, attorney for complainants
"To the extent that some of that network is used to support the electric utility, we have no problem with it, but it's the amount in excess of that that we have a problem with," he said. "We are especially concerned about the plans for future expenditures, because of the announced plan to make the Click network bigger and better — and that's a good thing, and we all would love to see a bigger and better Click network, but not paid for by the electric utility."
The claim estimates Tacoma Power has subsidized Click to the tune of at least $21 million over the past three years. Jurca said they're asking that the subsidies stop immediately, and that Tacoma Power be refunded either from the city's general fund or from "separate funds of Click itself."
Interim city manager Elizabeth Pauli and Mayor Marilyn Strickland said they could not answer questions about the claim, because they consider it pending litigation.
Utility spokeswoman Chris Gleason said Click does not have separate funds or its own reserves. Power superintendent Chris Robinson said in a memo last spring that because Click is a subfund of the power enterprise fund, formal financial statements for the network are not produced and it does not have a balance sheet.
Jurca has argued similar cases in the past. He was on the winning side of a 2003 case that was cited in a 2015 legal memo from then-city attorney Pauli to the City Council and the utility board about the funding of Click. In Okeson v. The City of Seattle, the state Supreme Court ruled unanimously that operating street lights was a general government function and not directly related to providing electricity to power customers. The city had unlawfully imposed a tax upon the ratepayers, it found. Jurca represented Rud Okeson, a former Seattle City Light manager who sued Seattle over the street lights.
Also signed onto the notice of claim: Thomas H. Oldfield, an attorney and electric ratepayer, and Industrial Customers of Northwest Utilities, a Portland trade group of large industrial users of electricity in the Pacific Northwest, which includes industrial customers of Tacoma Power.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In August 2010 I will attempt to break the record for cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats and back. The current fastest time was set by Bobby Brown in April 2000 at 6 days 20 hours. While one-way rides are quite common, the round trip is not often attempted as it is a significant endurance feat. In return for me punishing my body in this way, I should be really pleased if you would consider sending some money to Cardiac Risk in the Young via this website.

Allure of Rococo
December 27, 2011 § 2 Comments
By mid-afternoon, in accordance with his horror vacui,
The bare walls of his sparsely furnished surroundings
Led him to experience deep feelings of melancholy detachment.
Sympathetic to his plight, we engaged in pleasant reverie,
Extolling the bewitching allure of rococo ornamentation.
Consoled, he brought out crayons and markers,
And we embellished every unadorned surface with curling scrawls.
§ 2 Responses to Allure of Rococo
Oh, yes, m'dear. I can see it.

Five years ago, I had the most intense birthday of my life.
Two weeks earlier, my youngest son Luke was in a single car accident early in the morning on Memorial Day. He was headed to work when he went off the road, down an embankment, and hit a tree. We got the emergency call from my sister, who said it was very serious, but when we got to the scene, the paramedics said he took a knock to the head and hurt his ankle, but seemed to be okay otherwise. They sedated him to remove him from his Jeep, a fact which worried Lissa, since combativeness after a head injury is an indicator of potentially severe damage.
We got to the hospital, and went to the ER, where I was allowed back into the treatment room. I think my son Isaac was back there with me. They'd given Luke a drug to counter the sedative, and he was very groggy, but did smile once when Isaac made a joke. The orderly came to move Luke to the ICO for observation and we were told we could see him in a few minutes.
The few minutes turned into an hour and when we were finally called in, we were told that Luke had decompensated, a fancy medical word for getting much worse. They had put him into an induced coma and initiated the Traumatic Brain Injury protocol. When we saw him next, he was on a respirator and had a hole drilled in his skull for a monitor to watch his Inter Cranial Pressure or ICP.
The next two weeks were a roller coaster with more valleys than peaks. Luke was diagnosed with DAI, or Diffuse Axonal Injury, more commonly known as shaken baby syndrome. The injury can be very severe but his neurologist felt that his injury was fairly mild, and that he had a good chance of complete recovery, with some minor personality changes. Unfortunately, his lungs reacted badly to the ventilator and began failing. They were scarring, filling with fluid, and not transferring oxygen to his bloodstream. They crashed so quickly that Luke was too sick for a tracheotomy, which is protocol for patients in his condition.
We hit the low point on the night of June 13th. His blood oxygen level was sinking, and worse, his blood was becoming acidic due to the buildup of CO2. Around 11PM that night, the doctor on duty said we had to take drastic action and a major risk, or he felt we were going to lose Luke. The hospital had a special bed coming in the morning that rotated 360 degrees, which would allow the lung tissues on the back side of his lungs to come more fully into play, taking some of the burden off the front side, which were in horrible shape. But in order for Luke to make it through the night, the doctor said he would have to be placed prone and propped up with pillows. The risk was that his lungs would react poorly to the move, and he would lose what little breathing capacity he had left.
He asked us what we wanted him to do.
Three days before, I had been sitting by Luke's side in the ICU, praying harder than I've ever prayed before or since. There's a verse in the Bible about the wordless groanings of the spirit, and I can tell you that I know exactly what that means. In the midst of that prayer, I felt a cool breeze and was filled with the assurance that Luke was going to be okay. I'd like to pretend that my faith was strong and that I boldly told the doctor to do what was necessary, but that would be a lie. I did tell him to do what was best, but I was filled with fear. I mentioned to Luke's nurses that I hoped the move didn't kill him since the next day was my birthday. They looked shocked and asked if I were joking; I could only say that I wasn't.
Led by the head nurse, the medical team and Lissa and I prayed together before Luke was moved to the prone position. Shortly after midnight, the team went into action and flipped Luke over onto his belly, propped him up with pillows, and the waiting began.
By morning on my birthday, Luke was still hanging in there. His blood oxygen had come up, but his acidity had remained the same, which was not a hopeful sign. The doctors told us that if his numbers didn't improve soon, and significantly, it would no longer be a question of if there would be additional brain damage, but how much. They moved Luke to his new bed, flipped him upside down so he was dangling from the bed, and started rocking him side to side, almost a full 180 degrees. Throughout the day, Luke's blood gases started to improve; CO2 coming down, O2 going up. By midnight, it was pretty clear that he had turned the corner. Isaac bought me a slice of cake from the gift store and wrote 'Happy-ish Birthday!' on the plastic cover.
I still have that cover.
We were still on the roller coaster, but this time, there were more peaks than valleys. As he improved, they finally got to put a trach tube in. Luke improved enough over the next two weeks that the doctors terminated the TBI protocol and began to wake him up.
The big question was how much damage occurred due to the lung failure and nobody could tell us anything for certain. Luke woke slowly over the course of several days, and we went from being quiet and not disturbing him to talking to him, asking questions even though he couldn't respond yet, and in general stimulating him. He could squeeze hands on command and to answer simple questions, but we didn't know how much of him was actually there.
Until the day he tried to use sign language to ask a question. At that point, we knew he was going to be just fine.
In all, Luke spent 29 days in the ICU, another 6 days in the hospital, and 7 days in a rehab facility before coming home. His full recovery took about a year, and he has some slight lingering impact from the accident, mainly a stiff knee and a stiffer neck. But then, the boy did need a little seasoning so that isn't entirely a bad thing.
Every year, when my birthday comes around again, I remember those days and nights spent living at the hospital. And I remember the night before my birthday, thinking we might lose my son.
But mostly, I remember the day we discovered we weren't going to lose him after all.
Best birthday ever.

I was never a soccer mom. We were always a ski and racquet sports family and I could partake in the sports while the kids had their lessons. But I have lots of friends who are team moms and they speak to hours spent in the bleachers. If you have sideline spectators on your Christmas list, here are some gift ideas that are perfect for them!
Sitting rinkside or fieldside can be chilly and this Ted Baker blanket cape adds a warm extra layer without looking like a Snuggy.
Sitting in the stands waiting for the game to start is nobody's favourite thing to do. This cute monogrammed bleacher seat will make the hours spent sitting much more comfortable.
One of my favourite moms of sporty boys never travels anywhere without candles to freshen the room. Diptyque mini candles are beautifully scented. I love Tuberose, but Baies is also a popular choice.
These Draper James Spirit Mittens are everything and come in a variety of team colours. They seem to go in and out of stock but they will email you when they are available.
Go Team!

I have been having coccyx pain for the past 6 months and initially I did not know that the pain is from the coccyx region. Hence, I visited a general surgeon to check out whether I have got any problem with my anus area. When the doctor told me it has go to do with coccyx, he suggested I should visit an Ortho. The Ortho took an extra & made sure I don't have any other problem other than coccyx pain. He suggested a course of physio along with some pain killers. I went for 10 sessions of physio at different intervals but did not find the pain reducing.
At that time, I visited your blog and went through experiences of various people. I read the physical manipulation suggested by Brenda and got in touch with her to clarify the exact method of conducting this physical manipulation. I have carried out this manipulation for a period of 15 days three times daily. Along with this, some other people suggested me to take finely chopped one clove of garlic to be gobbled with the water just before having food once a day. These two things have helped me reducing the pain by around 75% in just 15 days and I hope to get rid of this pain in few weeks time continuing these two methods.
Posted 2011-07-24
Further to my email of 27th May, 2011, I found physical manipulation could bring down the pain only to the extent of 50-60%. As I knew little bit of Homeopathic, I thought of going through some reference books and found a medicine suitable to bring down the Coccyx pain. Accordingly, I administered myself the following course of homeopathic medicine:
First three days 5 pills of Nux Vomica 30 to be consumed 3 times a day. The next three days take Hypericum Q , five drops to be put in a glass containing 60ML of pure water. Stir it thoroughly before you take the water and swallow the water very very slowly so that your tongue gets the taste of the water. This step should be followed atleast 3 times a day for three days.
After this, reduce Hypericum Q intake just two times a day and then take in between 5 pills of Hypericum 200 to be consumed 3 times a day. This you may have to continue for 2-3 months for 100% cure.
A word of caution when you take homeopathic medicine. Whenever you take homeopathic medicine, you need to keep your mouth free of any food particles or any smelly substance/drinks 30 minutes before taking medicine and 30 minutes after taking medicine. The sugar globules which contains the medicines should be kept on the tip of the tongue for dissolving rather than chewing it or biting it.
I can say my pain has reduced now to around 95% and Homeopathic medicine should be continued atleast for 2-3 months in order to have permanent cure.
Note from Jon Miles:
Homeopathic medicines are diluted again and again until in most cases there is none of the original substance left in the medicine given. See Homeopathy for more information.

Kathy Barto – Crackerbarrel Corner's eBook Reviewer
Another opportunity to put a little extra cash in your pocket for those rainy days!
If you don't already know, soap making is fascinating. There's nothing else like it. Chemistry in action with squeaky clean results. Take a few select items from nature and mix them up just right and you get to watch a chemical reaction that causes the ingredients to turn into designer-quality, great smelling, skin nourishing soap. And you've created art with a purpose – and it's good for you too!
You can customize it and personalize it to your heart's content. Stick with the basics or add more steps – it's entirely up to you. Just imagine all the ways you can put your special touch on each and every batch. It's about making exactly what you want. Whether you feel like creating an additive-free soap, soap with a particular color or scent, or you want to express your creativity (and make money doing something you love) by starting your very own line of custom bath products, it's easy.

Founded by Jews of Austrian origin in 1900, this is the last remaining synagogue from a total of three built by Ashkenazim (the population of Ashkenazi Jews accounts for four percent of the total Jewish population of Turkey).
Located very close to the Galata Tower, the synagogue has a facade which is especially imposing, with three Oriental arches and octagonal rosette windows. The interior has marble floors, a dome decorated with Stars of David, and the ark of dark wood is a blend of eastern European and Arabesque styles.
After visiting the synagogue, take a walk down the nearby Camondo Steps, designed in the Neo-Baroque and early Art Nouveau styles by Abraham Salomon Camondo circa 1870–1880. The Camondos were a wealthy Jewish family who amassed their fortune in Turkey. Patricia Daunt tells of the family's Paris home, which has been turned into a museum, in 'Treasures of a Lost Dynasty' in Cornucopia 26.

Update: Here are a few updated links to my blog post, and my freebies, over at Queertown Abbey.
Between May 18th and 24th LGBTI web site and information center Queertownabbey.com is celebrating a one year anniversary. There will be online swag and commentary posts to celebrate, which is MOST important in this age of all things cyber and digital for those of you who can't afford get away to conferences and events...or just don't want to get away for those things because you have lives, kids, jobs, an active social life, or whatever the case may be. It's really the kind of event of the future and I think sometimes we fail to realize we're actually making cyber history right now, today, with events like the one being held at Queertown Abbey.
In any event, this is from the main web site.
Today marks Queer Town Abbey's one year anniversary! I can't believe it's been one year already since I started up Queer Town Abbey
I want to thank each and every one of you who have helped, encouraged, praised and supported me through this last year !
I have learned so much and am learning more and more everyday.
I have met some amazing people and for that I am so thankful.
I am offering a giveaway to celebrate.
To enter all you need to do is leave a comment, and if you want a second chance, you can like Queer Town Abbey on Facebook.
Last week an author I know asked me if I thought things like this were worth while. Without hesitation, I said they were not only worth while, but I love doing them. I'm still kicking myself for missing the Hop for Homophobia and Transphobia last week.
I'll update with links about this more as I get them. There's a time difference and the 19th post is not up yet. But right now all you need to know is at the link above to keep looking for more.
Fighter Supports Gays
A well known fighting champion, Joseph Benavidez, recently said he not only supports gays but wants to see a gay guy beat the shit out of someone.
Benavidez said he would welcome a gay athlete into the sport, as it would be a way of breaking down barriers.
'It would be cool to see a gay guy just beat the shit out of somebody' he said. 'I think that would be that much cooler. Busting a stereotype.'
Without commenting in detail, there are a few people I would love to see a gay guy beat the shit out of, too.
More here.
There's a photo of Benavidez.
Andrew Garfield Trans Woman "We Exist"
Andrew Garfield from Spiderman fame did a music video, We Exist, as a trans woman.
Hollywood actor Garfield stars as the troubled trans woman in the emotionally-charged video released 16 May.
The song We Exist, which will be the third single from the Canadian rock group's album Reflektor, has been championed as a new LGBT anthem.
In the video, Garfield's character starts by shaving his head and agonizing over his clothes before heading out in full drag.
There's a photo of him as a trans woman and more information at the link below.
I'm finding myself drawn to articles and videos like this more and more these days, and a good deal of this is has to do with the discussion about the word "tranny." As I've stated in previous posts, I've never used the word myself and never cared for use of that word. But at the time I wrote those posts I think I was acting more politically correct than fully understanding why I don't use it. I don't know if this makes sense, but I think I'm really starting to get why words like that offend and hurt trans people...and not just because I'm trying to be politically correct. It really is all about equality, and dignity for everyone in the LGBTI community, not just a select few with loud voices.
I've heard the argument that the word tranny is part of gay culture in some LGBTI circles and they see nothing wrong with it. But it's not a strong argument, especially as gay culture evolves. I doubt that if we stop using that word anyone in those circles will be hurt. If we continue to use that word there's no doubt that some people will get hurt. That's not a difficult decision for me to make.
You can read more here.
It's a highly compelling video, and I think far more important than the what actors like Seth Rogen and James Franco have been doing with campy drag. What they did was funny at first, but it's tired now. And videos like this make the real statements.
