MURRIETA: Many questions remain after three Hemet residents, ages 13, 16 and 18, killed in early-morning rollover crash
Trevor Montgomery
See Original Story Below
More questions than answers remain in the triple fatal rollover traffic collision that occurred on Winchester Road in the City of Murrieta on Jan. 16. The deceased have been identified by the coroner's office as Kile Kennedy the III, who turned 13 on the day of the tragic, early morning accident; Anthony Aleman, 16 and Tate Herman, 18. All three victims were confirmed to be residents of Hemet.
Officers, who found alcohol inside the vehicle following the crash, have not yet officially announced if they believed alcohol or drugs played a significant role in this deadly collision,
Although there are few answers yet, the investigation, being conducted by Murrieta Police Department, is active and ongoing.
In a press release, Murrieta PD Traffic Sergeant Jay Froboese wrote, "At this point in the investigation it appears from the fatal injuries to the occupants and severe damage to the vehicle that speed was a definite factor in the collision. There were no other vehicles involved in the collision and only one witness to the actual collision," Froboese continued, "The witness was headed northbound on Winchester and observed the silver 2002 Lexus IS300 (being driven) at a high rate of speed southbound just prior to the collision."
Adding more fuel to the speculative fire was the revelation by Froboese that, "Alcohol was found in the vehicle during the police investigation, but it is unknown at this time if alcohol was a factor in the collision. This will not be known until toxicology reports are received from the coroner. This will not occur for several weeks."
Only further adding to the mystery of what really happened that fateful morning, was the admission by Froboese, it is unknown at this time who was driving the Lexus at the time of the collision.
Froboese and Murrieta Police Department is asking for the public's help if any witnesses may have seen a silver 2002 Lexus IS300 southbound Winchester around between 1:20 a.m. to 1:40 a.m. Saturday morning. If the public has any information regarding this vehicle, its occupants, or the vehicle accident please call Investigator Dave Hernandez 951-461-6396 with your information. Callers can refer to incident file number 1601M-3360 and callers can remain anonymous.

A taste of Daniel: An interview with Chef Daniel Boulud
By Barbara Perry Bind
Chef Daniel Boulud, who came from humble beginnings on a farm in Lyon, France, has become a culinary icon, mentor and author. His culinary creations please the palates of the most discerning of diners and his self-avowed commitment to philanthropy benefits countless members of the community.
As an acclaimed chef and restaurateur, he has been honored by both the James Beard Foundation and Bon Appétit as "Chef of the Year," and he has received Gourmet Magazine's "Top Table" award. Boulud has also earned a four-star rating from The New York Times and membership in the highly selective Relais & Châteaux.
On March 4, the man everyone calls simply "Daniel," will be honored at Great Chefs 2011, an annual fundraiser held by Greenwich Hospital to benefit its outreach department, Community Health.
Boulud was singularly impressed with the scope of the event. "Fifty-two chefs giving back and supporting the community -- I don't know if we could have gathered this many together for a single event in New York City. It's impressive," he says.
The Citizen spoke with Boulud about his career, what he loves most about cooking and what have been major factors contributing to his successes.
More Information
Fact box
What made you decide to become a chef?
I learned that I loved cooking very early on. At home I could either work on the farm or help my grandmother in the kitchen. The choice was easy. I'm also fortunate that my first employer, Gerard Nandron, was a great role model. He was a leader in his community and also very nurturing to his staff, whom he treated like family, while still imposing strict standards. He showed great respect for the profession.
What role did growing up on a farm in Lyon play in your decision to become a chef?
My parents' farm was in St. Pierre de Chandieu, a small village outside Lyon. I still dream of having a farm of my own. The food we ate at home was simple but delicious. It was what we raised or grew. You looked forward to each ingredient that was harvested in its own time, and that still totally drives the way I cook today.
Who have been your major influences?
One piece of advice I offer young cooks is to choose their mentors wisely. It's probably because mine were so influential in my life. From the start, I worked for the best chefs who would hire me and then gave them my all. In each case, they repaid me by in turn introducing me to yet another great mentor. As a young chef, I had the privilege of working for the top talents of the day. Georges Blanc in Vonnas, Michel Guérard at Les Prés d'Eugènie and then Roger Vergé at the Moulin de Mougins in the south of France. They had incredible palates and technique. Their cooking reflected their regional roots, applied with respect for tradition but also with modernity. They were more than chefs; they were restaurateurs who attended to every detail of their guests' experience.
Describe or define your style of cooking.
Rooted in French tradition, driven by the best ingredients I can find and always inspired by the season.
What is your idea of a great meal or dining experience?
It's many things coming together: the company, the mood, the setting, the food and of course the wine, all in harmony.
What were some difficulties you faced on your road to success?
If you want to do this seriously it is 24/7. It can, and does, absorb every bit of your life. It takes a real effort to carve out a tiny corner of your life for yourself, and it's easy to forget to do that sometimes.
Early on, it's hard to learn to delegate, but as you assemble a great team around you, they give you the confidence and freedom to build. I am very lucky to have an incredible team.
Describe the challenges facing today's restaurateurs.
The greatest challenge lies in constantly reassessing and reasserting our standards of excellence so as to maintain consistent quality. How do we do this? Careful recruiting, followed by constant training and retraining to guide and motivate talented people who are dedicated to the craft of cooking and who love the art of serving. Our goal is for these restaurant professionals to build careers with us. These are the people who build lasting relationships with our guests and work daily to help make our restaurants what they are.
What advice would you give to aspiring young chefs?
Follow your heart. Master your technique and pay your dues, but then go on to cook what really makes you happy.
What would you say to someone who's totally intimidated in the kitchen?
Start with the best ingredients you can get a hold of, at the peak of their seasonality. Choose simple recipes; ideally, dishes you can make at least partly ahead of time. Slowly simmered braised dishes are great for this. They are almost impossible to overcook and always taste better the next day. Choose one for each season, keep it simple and make it your own.
Tell me about some of your worst disasters.
There was a Christmas goose and an outdoor barbecue grill. The rest was ugly -- and involved lots of flames!
What successes are you most proud of?
My daughter Alix, but Alix herself and her mother Micky deserve most of the credit
Is there a fine line between the camaraderie and competition among chefs?
Among those who love their work and respect our métier there is tremendous camaraderie. Of course, there is a healthy sense of competition, but the community of chefs is a pretty close and nurturing one.
What do you enjoy most about your craft?
There is no limit to what you can create. Our craft is rooted in technique and tradition, but I am also continuously inspired by travel and by the creativity of the young chefs around me. And finally, all our effort goes to making people happy.
What is the best compliment someone could give to you?
That dish made me so happy. I'm coming back for it again tomorrow night.

Southlake becomes First Cancer Centre in Ontario to Introduce Patient-Friendly Symptom and Registration Kiosk Developed by PatientWay
Southlake becomes First Cancer Centre in Ontario to Introduce Patient-Friendly Symptom and Registration Kiosk Developed by PatientWay
New system eases check-in process for patients making daily trips to the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre
(Newmarket, Ontario – Wednesday, January 12, 2011) – The Stronach Regional Cancer Centre at Newmarket's Southlake Regional Health Centre today became the first Cancer Centre in the Province of Ontario to introduce an integrated symptom and registration kiosk for patients receiving cancer treatment designed to improve the overall patient experience.
The kiosk, developed by Ottawa-based PatientWay, is designed to enable the Cancer Centre's patients to enter a record of their symptoms at the same time as they register for the scheduled appointment. While patient registration and check-in kiosks have been widely used in other facilities for a number of years, the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre will be the first to offer an integrated check-in and symptom assessment component. The addition of the integrated kiosk will reduce the amount of time patients spend waiting to speak with a registration clerk, will facilitate accurate symptom reporting, and will improve the Cancer Team's response to symptom management and general treatment planning.
"We are always looking for avenues to further improve the overall patient experience," said Dr. Louis Balogh, Regional Vice President, Regional Cancer Program. "We know that cancer patients often face a long treatment plan which can, at times, require them to return to the Centre on a daily basis. By integrating the symptom assessment and check-in systems—two key functions required at each visit—we are streamlining the process for patients at each visit, thereby reducing the overall amount of time spent at the Centre."
Representatives from the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre and PatientWay provided a live demonstration of the new kiosk to Cancer Care Ontario Vice-President Michael Sherar, who was visiting Southlake to introduce the Ontario Cancer Plan 2011-2015: A Roadmap to Ontario's Cancer System. The implementation of the new kiosk to improve symptom reporting and check-in processes aligns with CCO's strategic priority to "continue to assess and improve the patient experience", as identified in CCO's Plan.
Currently, patients at Regional Cancer Centres throughout the province are requested to give an indication of their current status, using a nine-symptom checklist, each scored on a numeric scale of 0-10. Known as the Edmonton Self-Assessment System, this is the standard approach to symptom assessment for cancer patients that has been adopted and advocated by Cancer Care Ontario.
Other centres already use kiosks to capture patient symptom information, however the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre at Southlake is the first in the province to include the added convenience of the check-in component to a single machine.
The introduction of a symptom assessment through the use of a single kiosk will allow patients to record any change in symptoms, which is then automatically transmitted electronically to the patient's health record where it may be easily viewed by all healthcare professionals involved in the patient's care. The accurate and timely transmission of the patient's symptoms to the health record will allow staff in the Cancer Centre to anticipate the patient's needs and if required, based on the reported symptoms, modify the day's treatment plan. Combined with the ability to easily register for their scheduled appointment, this streamlined approach eliminates the current practice in which patients are required to complete their assessment manually and then wait to speak with a Registration Clerk to check-in for their appointment.
"PatientWay is proud to be partnering with Southlake and the Stronach Regional Cancer Centre on this exciting initiative" said Jay Lawrence, CEO. "The integrated symptom and registration kiosk, powered by the PatientWay Access Management Platform, will improve the patient experience and enhance the overall delivery of care. The leadership illustrated by Dr. Balogh and the rest of the Southlake and Stronach project team will result in a new approach to how patients interact with the providers of cancer care services in the Province."
Testing and implementation of the new kiosk is currently underway. The Stronach Regional Cancer Centre and PatientWay expect to have the kiosks operational for patient by February.

In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. V8 Chevy 350 Vortec Engine Diagram. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.
Each fuse is going to have a suitable amp rating for those devices it's protecting. The wiring is merely a bit complicated.

What's Your Rating?May 13, 2013 | Posted by mlynn in Communication Skills, Sales Training
What if the sales profession was subject to the kind of structured and public ratings used for financial institutions worldwide? Ratings agencies such as Moody's and Standard & Poor's evaluate the risk associated with lending money to companies and government agencies. The risks and rewards of customers engaging you, the sales professional, are completely different, but extremely significant to their future and your own. How would you fare in a SP Rating (Sales Professional Rating)?
Value Contribution
- Track record for success on behalf of clients
- Consistently brings new and valuable ideas
- Problem solving ability
- Business consultant role
- Put customer's best interest first
- Bottom line contribution
- Dependability – consistently do what you say you are going to do, when you say you are going to do it.
- Appearance
- Behavior/etiquette
Administrative Function
- Ease of doing business
- Efficient billing, reporting, etc.
- Hassle-free processes
The ultimate indication of your SP customer rating is whether or not decision makers at any given client organization choose to do business with you; however, even that measure can be deceiving. We all can think of sales professional–customer relationships in which the customer buys from the sales rep in spite of that individual, not because of him/her; and alternately, situations in which customers buy more because of the sale rep they adore than the products/services they could live without.
Think about the dynamic you bring to the purchase relationship with your customers. To what degree are you personally a positive factor in their decision? Assessing your performance in each of the specific areas above would be a good start to ensuring you are maximizing your (positive) impact in each and every purchase decision.

ILMxLAB developers create their art using HP Z Workstations equipped with NVIDIA Quadro professional GPUs. The usage of NVIDIA VRWorks VR SLI technology allowed artists to dramatically accelerated stereo rendering.
VR SLI has nearly doubled our rendering power and allows us to create higher fidelity renderings
Lutz Latta, ILMxLAB Principal Engineer and Technology Development Lead
For those of you not aware of this project, ILMxLAB is a new laboratory for VR. ILMxLAB is now into developing, producing and releasing premium, story-based immersive experiences for the home, theater and public venues.
As we cloud-streamed a movie to a tablet, the black bars around the movie disappeared and the viewer was suddenly immersed into an entirely interactive CG world. It was an example of where VR was heading and how we could find new opportunities for storytelling and engaging the fans of our own stories.
Lutz Latta, ILMxLAB Principal Engineer and Technology Development Lead
Star Wars: Trials on Tatooine VR experience, now available on SteamVR, shows he potential of VR storytelling.
There is a fine line between a VR video game and an interactive cinematic experience that engages users in the story. "We want engagement with the story and the world it plays in, but less of the competitive nature of a video game. Trials on Tatooine was our first step in creating something meaningful.
Lutz Latta, ILMxLAB Principal Engineer and Technology Development Lead
Don't miss Latta's talk on the technologies behind cinematic VR in the NVIDIA Theater (booth 509) at SIGGRAPH, July 24-28 if you're somewhere near. He'll give a talk on how to repurpose offline rendered movie-quality assets for real-time rendering in the sub-11 milliseconds per frame necessary for VR — and some of the lessons he learned along the way.
Without a doubt, laboratory's production is heavily influenced by NVIDIA's power:
We're experimenting with using four to eight NVIDIA graphics cards working together for rendering. We're also closing the gap between creating movie assets and VR assets with an eye towards continually increasing frame rates.

Perhaps the most unappreciated spirit on liquor store shelves, mezcal has gotten a bad rap for years. From the cheaper versions that have a worm floating in the bottom of the bottle (it's a tourist trap!) to its confusingly close association with the other agave spirit—tequila—of which there is very little similarity, it's finally in the midst of a cocktailian makeover.
The mezcal bandwagon is one to jump on enthusiastically. To make the transition a little less intimidating, try pairing it with something everyone loves: fruit. In part because of the spirit's intensity and smokiness, it pairs wonderfully with more acidic options like apples and citrus.
Curious? Make one of these tantalizingly fruity mezcal cocktails and you'll never underestimate the Mexican liquor again.
There's no more autumn-appropriate drink than this amalgamation of apple cider, lemon juice and ginger beer. The cocktail also includes a healthy measure of tequila, which under no circumstances should be reserved for summertime Margaritas, plus a touch of mezcal. Despite the meager amount of the liquor, the shot of mezcal lends the proper smoky punch and makes the cocktail that much more enticing.
Whether you're throwing a party for a self-proclaimed cocktail nerd or not, this punch balances mezcal's in-your-face flavor with two kinds of citrus (grapefruit and lemon), amaro and ginger beer. There's little doubt that anyone would turn their nose up at this powerful bowl.
Need a little mayhem in your life? Take it straight to your mouth with this complex combination of sweet, sour, smoky, bitter and bubbly. While that combination of flavors seems impossible to do well, top bartender Adam Seger's mixture of mezcal, Campari, mayhaw syrup and beer does it with ease.
The apple-and-mezcal love affair surfaces again in this tall drink. But this cocktail livens up the tryst with Chinese five spice, elderflower liqueur, Peychaud's Bitters (for a hint of licorice) and apple soda (in addition to cider). Mind blown? Try it. Now.
A classic Paloma includes three components: tequila, lime juice and grapefruit soda. It's a true stalwart—but there's always room for improvement, they say. The aptly named Smoky Paloma calls for not one but three different types of spirits—tequila, mezcal and vodka—and uses grapefruit juice rather than soda. Plus, an egg white gives the drink a creamy texture.

Samantha Leenas
Samantha Leenas, senior, just signed a contract with JP Morgan, where she will be working as a market risk analyst after graduation. Facing a 70 hour work week with plans to get her CFA (Charter Financial Analyst) certification while also taking up learning Arabic, Sam is prepared to be very busy—but it's nothing that she can't handle.
Sam Leenas came to Marist in the fall of her freshman year bearing two passions: politics and business. Sam, who reads the Wall Street Journal everyday, pins her interest in politics to the 8th grade, when she wrote a book report on John McCain and felt a passion sparked.
After taking an Intro to Business class at Marist and exploring her options, she decided to become a business administration major, ultimately declaring a concentration in finance. "I realized that everything I liked about politics had to do with the economy. That's when I realized I have a passion for finance," she says.
And with that discovery, nothing could stand in her way. A co-vice president of the business honor society Beta Gamma Sigma, a School of Management Ambassador, part of the student run investment fund MCIC— if it was business, Sam was there.
She took a special interest in the investment side of business by joining the leadership team of Marist Enactus, a club that practices social entrepreneurship: giving back to the community while also making a profit.
One of the organizations that this club has been working with is the Hudson Valley Startup Fund, a group of angel investors which she describes to be somewhat like the T.V. show, Shark Tank. "They have companies come and pitch to them, so what we do is if they're thinking about investing in a company, myself and a team of three other students would help them do some of the research to help them make a decision if they actually want to invest," she says.
Even with all her business advancements, Sam has found ways to weave in her interest of politics to her college career, choosing to spend a semester at American University in Washington D.C. There, she combined both fields as a finance intern for the National Republican Congressional Committee. Though she is excited to start with JP Morgan after graduation, politics continue to be present in her goals. "I think eventually, maybe later in my career I'd love to serve as an advisor for a politician," she says.
Sam is clearly prepared for life outside of Marist, but not all of her business endeavors are as serious. Some are simply to fulfill her love of giving back to the community. Take SPLASH, for example, a program that Sam is president of, which holds free classes on anything from origami to modern dance, for local middle and high school students.
This past fall, Sam helped orchestrate Marist Investment Center Reach Out, or MICRO SPLASH, which served as a test run for the larger SPLASH program which will be held later this year. MICRO was all about finance, so naturally Sam jumped at the opportunity and taught Yahoo Finance 101 with a friend.
In addition to holding three jobs on campus, Sam is also an honors student. While in a seminar one day with Professor Caridi, she found an unusual interest. The class was reading a book called "Why Nations Fail," which discussed how lack of property rights in developing nations can cause their economies to fail. This stuck with her, and when she spent her semester in Washington D.C., the book inspired a 40-page research paper.
"I worked with a professor down in DC, he introduced me to the political landscape in Myanmar, (or Burma). A lot of the farmers in Myanmar, they actually have no property rights at all, so the government owns all their land," she says. "It's really negatively affecting their economic development."
Though she didn't know it at the time, this research would take her across the country. She first presented at the New York State Political Science Association Conference. Then, this past fall, she traveled to Seattle, Washington with the Marist Honors Program to present her research at the National Collegiate Honors Council Conference. There, her work won second place in the Social and Behavioral Sciences category.
But out of all these accomplishments so far, her greatest one yet? The work she did last semester with Campus Ministry, to organize the holiday giving tree. Sam was co-chair of the giving tree committee, which donated over 1000 gifts to 128 local families in need.
"I wasn't just doing something for myself but I was able to help other people in the community," she says. This tradition of giving back at Marist is one that Sam plans to carry with her long after graduation, no matter what job she has. "That's really where you get meaning in life," she adds.
As she wraps up her final few months at Marist, Sam is full-speed ahead with plans for her future. She hopes to first commute to her job from her home in New Jersey to pay off her student loans before relocating to New York City or Hoboken. She also has plans to one day get her Masters in Business Administration.
"I guess I just have to see where life takes me. I definitely want to be in a position where I can always move forward, and not just do the same thing everyday," she says. "Change is hard but I also like it. I just want to keep challenging myself and learning new things."

We are using S12ZVMC128
The documentation is very confusing and probably misleading in that it does not state in any of usual reference places that PP1_KWP1_PWM1_IRQ does not support rising edge interrupt.
We have selected this pin for Interrupt IO and used processor expert to generate code. Already our hardware is designed and the board has this pin mapped to a port that is used as a switch so we can't change this.
We found that we were only getting falling edge and not getting rising edge interrupt so we checked the code by PE and found the code be different from usual code. It had generated a SetEdge function, which we use to switch from falling to rising edge but here is switching from falling to low edge.
All the reference does not highlight this except when you look at the IRQCR which is the last thing we looked at.
Now we want to know is it possible to get the rising edge interrupt on this PP1 pin or NOT??? This will require us to make new boards!!!
References we looked at MC9S12ZVM Family Reference Manual Rev. 2.5
Page 56
60 PP1 KWP1 PWM1_1 PWM0_1 IRQ — — — VDDX PPRP/PPSPOff
Page 110 Table 2-7 Port P Pin Functions and Priorities
PTP[1]/KWP[1] I/O General-purpose; with interrupt and wakeup
This is critical and urgent issue for us now.

The company was organized on December 31, 1892. The Buckley & Douglas developed the Manistee North Eastern Railroad to transport their numerous products. Buckley lived in a Greek revival home at 517 1st Street in Manistee, Michigan. An Edward Buckley autograph is a wonderful financial memento. This reproduction would look great in an album or display.

Headerless Wall Openings
Get excess wood out of the walls - skip headers where they are unnecessary and use rim joist headers where they are.
There are lots of elements to high performance homebuilding we're incorporating on this project. I try to remove every piece of wood from the walls as possible and leave the space for insulation.
Often half of the openings in a typical house don't need structural headers. And those openings that do need headers can benefit from alternative framing methods to minimize thermal bridging.
Most window and door openings don't need typical headers resting on jack studs. Non-bearing wall openings less than 8 ft. wide don't need any header. So on the gable ends of this house, we just installed king studs and a flat head board.
Bearing walls are framed the same way – king studs and a flat head board. So how are the loads transferred from the floor and roof above? The rim joist. For narrow openings – like single windows- the rim joist itself is usually strong enough to carry the load around the opening. We followed the 2015 IRC prescriptive measures for rim joist header design and made sure there were no joints within the opening area nor within 6 in. to either side of the king studs.
On wider openings like mulled windows and patio doors we ran the rim joist continuously over the opening and added an LVL on the inside of the rim joist – essentially building a 2-ply header in the floor system. On this project the engineer specified the header/rim joist requirements for each opening as well as the number of king studs.
Wherever joists land at openings we'll install a joist hanger mounted to the rim joist or the LVL.

My latest novel is of the HORROR genre and I pulled out all the stops on this one.
The setting is England, 1590, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth the First. Enidor Fox is a depraved witch hunter traveling the southern countryside in search of wealth, not witches. Even though he is a priest, it is in name only. He partners with Lords and Nobles in the counties, falsely accusing persons of witchcraft and having them summarily tried and executed. Once they are dead, the Lords confiscate the deceased's property and grants Fox a kickback for his trouble. He soon finds himself in Wokingham of Berkshire County to work his evil again, but this time he stumbles upon a real coven of witches who are not happy to see him and his entourage of cutthroats invade their territory. The two forces are soon joined in mortal combat and only the evil most holy will win the day.
Extremely graphic content of torture, sexual situations and violence. NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH OR THE EASILY OFFENDED!!!! Enter at your own risk.
This is an e-book available on Amazon.com's Kindle store. I have priced it at .99 cents. If you do purchase it, please provide a review on Amazon, good or bad. I love to hear from my detractors as much as my fans. Thanks.

Modus Operandi Method of Working To Prepare
Have a card case made of tin, as in Figure 18. Punch a few holes in this case.
In one side of the crown of the felt hat, just a little inside of the top edge, cut a hole. Leave the lining intact. Insert the tin case in this opening in hat. Sew around the case to hold it in place between the lining and the hat. Glue the opening around the case. Figure 33.
Thread three cards, duplicates of which you are going to FORCE, between four indifferent cards. Place them all in the tin case. Edges of cards should be just a little below edge of case. Thread free end of the thread into a needle. Carry it from top edge of case across dent in crown of hat and through the other side of crown. See Figure 33.
Run the thread off stage to an assistant or make an arrangement whereby you can control pulling of the thread yourself.

The strange sensation of publication
I received advanced copies of Catch and Kill in the mail this week. The official publication date is still weeks away, so it's an odd feeling. A bit of an anti-climax.
You see, I don't know about other people, but I only feel like a writer when I'm writing or editing something I've written or thinking about writing. Other times, I feel like a fraud.
Currently, I'm trying to jump start a new novel, but am not quite writing. And I'm writing poetry, which is more like breathing than writing. So ... I don't know why, but, yeah, I feel like a bit of a fraud to have a new book in my hands because that's something I have written rather than am writing and my tendency is to obsess about that which I don't yet know how to write rather than that which I've already found my way to the end of.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with Catch and Kill. Rapt, actually. It's the book I wanted to write, and the crew at UQP have been incredible through the whole process, from writing to editing to production, and I think that shines in the finished product.
But ... a writer needs to write. It's as simple as that. Maybe that's why I publication always comes with a strange sensation, an aftertaste that drives me back to the notebook and the computer.
The first time I felt like this was 1996. I was living in Berkeley, in the Bay Area, and had just finished writing the manuscript of what became, eight years later, my first novel, Another. I'd written a novel before, when I was 20, but knew it wasn't good enough to be in print. Another, I believed, was good enough.
This left me with a strange sensation. Ever since I was around fourteen, my only real 'career' goals, if I had any, were to write a clutch of great poems and write a novel. By 1996, I had a couple of poems I was happy with and, having finished Another, had written what I hoped would be that novel. And, just like that, it was as though a hand that had been in the middle of my back for ten years went away.
I found myself without force or motion. And I didn't know what to do.
Time has taught me what I need to do this time. I need to write the next book.

4 Creatives Are Renting a Billboard in Oakland. It Is Too an Agency. Shut Up.
WNW Members Sam Dolphin, Jon Kubik, Mea Cole Tefka, and Rohit Thawani were looking to reintroduce some risk and fun to advertising. So they rented a billboard in Oakland, and are using it as a canvas to connect to the community. The diversity of "briefs" this single-billboard agency, titled Haha Ok Corp, has taken on highlights their willingness to follow their creativity and clients wherever they may lead. "Our last board was called the 'Idea Swap billboard' where essentially we sat at a picnic table under the billboard on Sundays and invited people in Oakland to trade their stuff for our creative endeavors."
Below, I talk to the four members of Haha Ok Corp and learn about their proudest moments, the interesting things they've accepted as payment, and what this endeavor has taught them about the advertising industry. If you've got a billboard idea in mind, hit up Haha OK and maybe your idea will soar.
How does one procure a billboard in Oakland?
In our case we ended up cold calling Clear Channel. One of their sales people picked us up in his Ford Explorer and drove us around Oakland until we found their best (cheapest) billboard. It ended up being on a little park which made doing stunts that much easier.
What was the initial goal behind starting a single billboard ad agency?
Advertising has been taking less risks in the last couple of years. In a lot of ways, creativity has turned into a math formula, and we wanted to get back to the fun-unknown-experimentation world that initially inspired us to get in this business. So, we rented a billboard and treated it as canvas to have a conversation with the local community. A weird, awkward, one-on-one conversation.
How has Haha Ok Corp incorporated the community's involvement?
Our last board was called the "Idea Swap billboard" where essentially we sat at a picnic table under the the billboard on Sundays and invited people in Oakland to trade their stuff for our creative endeavors. Our buddy Nick Stokes illustrated the board and it had a few suggestions for things we would trade for, like fancy bowling balls or a camper van with airbrushed dolphins. It was cool to see people with small businesses interpreting it their own way and bringing us things they thought were funny or cool or dumb.
What kind of stuff have you accepted as payment so far?
A company called Kinslips traded us their sublingual (beneath-the-tongue) marijuana strips for ideas for their brand. We helped name a child. We created scorpion birthday t-shirts in exchange for cake. Vacation Tanning oil traded us a bottle of Dom Perignon for some brand redesign and headlines. Our friends at PMH traded us scented candles for brain farts. And Miguel, from the melon truck, now sells us melons for $5 instead of the normal $6. Clearly he was impressed with our work.
What's your proudest Haha Ok Corp moment?
Probably a toss up between seeing a giant hairless guinea pig staring down at us from the billboard — or hanging out for the idea swaps and getting to meet people who had been waiting all week to come shoot the shit or to trade us for work.
Have your experiences operating this billboard offered any insights into advertising in general?
We wanted to bring more silliness and collaboration into what we do. Plus, not every idea needs to be the biggest thing ever. You can have a lot of fun and be creative in different ways, and it's awesome to meet people outside the bubble.
Any advice from Haha Ok Corp for fellow creatives?
Get some friends together and just make stuff. Also, while there's no money in billboards, you can get free marijuana and $5 melons out of it.
What's on the horizon for your billboard?
Our third billboard just went up, it's called Graffiti By Numberz. Essentially, the board kept getting tagged with kinda lo-fi graffiti, so to give local vandals a helping hand, we put up a giant paint-by-numbers style board drawn by our buddy Matt Orser, which will give them a place to practice.
The future is pretty up in the air. We're currently in talks with a few friends and clients to do events under the billboard. And if things go well for Haha Ok, we might even branch out to two billboards. Who knows.
And if any of you super talented WNW peeps have a billboard you've always wanted to make, hit us up!

The Workers Are Few
Pastor Mimi Kim asks: Do you have God's compassion for His people? Though not everyone is currently called to go into the mission field, we are all commanded to pray for more workers for the plentiful harvest. Pastor Mimi encourages us that anyone and everyone can be useful in the missions field.
Scripture: Matthew 9:35-38

When you are writing a business plan one section of that plan will be dedicated to target marketing. You might wonder what target marketing is and how important is it? According to the business plan template that is used by the Halton Region Small Business Centre, target marketing identifies and describes your customer or end user in great detail. When you truly understand who that customer is, you then know how to reach them or where to advertise. This can help you save time and money as well as help verify that the product or service that you are going to provide is viable.
To begin with, you need to choose a specific market such as: engineers, seniors, women, teens or men. Write a short, but detailed, description of the target market and then break that down into the follow four categories:
Identify gender; how old people in your target are; how much money they make; and, what kind of education or job they have (if relevant). You can also comment on how many of these types of people live in the area that you will be selling to.
Geographic Area:
Identify where your primary target market lives.
How do people in your primary target market think? Are they outgoing? Are they reclusive? Do they like adventurous? What interests do they have and then identify any common factors that you might find.
Buying Frequency:
Look at things such as how often your target market will buy? Will people buy daily, weekly, monthly or just for special occasions?
Now that you have your target market you need to expand and create a secondary, third and fourth target market and break each market down into the four categories mentioned above. If you have four markets then you will have the flexibility to cater to each one at a time, to see which target market sells the most products or wants your services. The target market can change based on trends and seasonality.
One of the goals of the Small Business Enterprise Centre is to empower small and medium-sized businesses and provide the right tools and mindset to achieve success. For more information about resources, services, business events and seminars, contact us by dialing 311, 1-866-442-5866, online at halton.ca/smallbusiness, by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit us at 1151 Bronte Road, Oakville.

On any given Sunday, you will find me at the frozen food aisle at the supermarket shop. If my sweet tooth hits, I find myself wholeheartedly scanning throughout the ocean of icecream, each carton cried for my attention with all the assurance of creamy, excellent gratification. However, with heaps of brands from which to choose, just how do you understand whether you should be purchasing the correct pint? Afterall, there is absolutely no solution to have an example spade.
Taste of Home desired to help. All of us took to the struggle to obtain the very best tasting chocolate icecream one of common grocery brands. (self-less we understand.)
The manufacturers
To obtain the very best of their very best, we moved into your community grocer and scooped up 10 of their most widely used brands of icecream. We decided that the most useful method to compare brands is to examine them with the characteristic of the very most classic ice cream flavor: chocolate. Yep, plainjane chocolate.

State College
No tax increase in proposed State College 2018 budget
The borough's proposed 2018 budget doesn't include a tax increase.
Borough residents didn't see a tax increase last year either.
The total borough budget is projected at $48.8 million, Manager Tom Fountaine said.
The General Fund includes revenues of $27,181,218 and expenses of $27,341,703. Personnel makes up 75 percent of the fund's expenditures, while operating costs make up 22 percent. Real estate taxes bring in 29.6 percent of the revenue for the fund.
Expenditures by department doesn't change much year to year, he said.
The police department accounts for 38 percent; public works for 23.2 percent; administration for 15.2 percent; and debt/other, planning and neighborhood services, regional programs and parking enforcement make up the rest.
The proposed budget isn't "perfect," Fountaine said.
There were several items that were proposed through the budget review that were not included due to lack of funding, such as the proposed Historical and Architectural Review Board, an additional full-time police officer, the public works construction crew (two full-time laborers) and restoring funding for the contracted tree pruning in public works.
These might need additional conversation, Fountaine said. All four, if approved at some point, would require ongoing recurring expenses.
Funding would have to be determined, he said, though that doesn't necessarily mean it would have to come from raising taxes.
"This budget, like all budgets, continues to be a challenge for us in terms of the limited growth in revenue that we have," Fountaine said.
Borough Council will begin reviewing the budget at its work session Friday.
A public hearing is scheduled for Dec. 4, and adoption is slated for Dec. 18.

Olly Wilson, 80, Dies; Composer Meshed African and Wes Music
Olly Wilson, 80, Dies; Composer Meshed African and Western Music
By RICHARD SANDOMIR
Olly Wilson, an adventurous composer who integrated African, African-American and electronic rhythms, riffs and sounds into Western classical music conventions, died on March 12 in Oakland, Calif. He was 80.
His daughter, Dawn Wilson, said the cause was complications of dementia.
Mr. Wilson, a longtime professor at the University of California, Berkeley, grew up listening to jazz and spirituals. He studied African music in Ghana under one of his two Guggenheim Fellowships, opened an electronic music studio at the Conservatory of Music at Oberlin College in Ohio, where he had formerly taught, and wrote academic papers, including a major essay on the art of black music.
I see him very much as a musician, composer and a scholar these things are hard to separate with him, Ryan Skinner, a musicology professor at Ohio State University, said in a telephone interview. His music is, in many ways, the resounding of his scholarship.
In his composition Sometimes, Mr. Wilson used the call-and-response tradition of African-American churchgoers to create a dialogue between a tenor singing Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child and a tape that included a distorted recording of that sorrowful spiritual.
In his review of the New York Philharmonics performance of Sometimes in 1977, Donal Henahan of The New York Times wrote that the tenor William Brown handled its vocally excruciating demands to gripping effect, and that the sibilants, gurgles and moans from the tape produce an almost suffocating mood of isolation and sadness.
Mr. Wilson, whose music was played by orchestras around the world, aligned himself with an African-American musical heritage that includes Frank Johnson, a 19th-century bugler, bandleader and composer; Harry Burleigh, a composer and baritone soloist; and the contemporary composer T. J. Anderson. His other influences, he said, ranged from Igor Stravinsky and Edgard Varèse to Charlie Parker and Miles Davis.
Music is experience consciously transformed, and because my experience has been an African-American experience, I think it expresses that, he told Bruce Duffie, a radio producer and interviewer in 1997, when asked if he were conveying African-American ideas in his pieces.
In the early 1990s, Mr. Wilson wrote a viola concerto for Marcus Thompson that had an improvisatory feel, with riffs associated with a jazz saxophone or trumpet and a bluesy middle section. Mr. Thompson said in a telephone interview that, compared with other viola concertos, Mr. Wilsons was special because he writes from a completely different medium; hes a jazz player whos written all sorts of chamber music.
The work, titled Viola Concerto, had its long-delayed premiere in 2012 with the Rochester Philharmonic. Stuart Low, of The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, called the work searing and haunting.
Olly Woodrow Wilson Jr. was born in St. Louis on Sept. 7, 1937. His father was a butler and a cook; his mother, the former Alma Grace Peoples, was a domestic. Theirs was the second African-American family in their neighborhood.
The elder Mr. Wilson, a tenor who sang in choirs around St. Louis, insisted that all of his children learn to play the piano, Olly Wilson told an oral history project at Berkeley. He thought understanding the piano was fundamental.
Young Olly, who also played the clarinet and string bass, was in an acoustic band as a teenager that played local bars in St. Louis when Chuck Berry arrived one day; this was early in Mr. Berrys rise to stardom, when he performed with house bands. The band with Mr. Wilson on piano alongside a drummer, a bassist and a saxophonist tried in vain to keep up with Mr. Berry, who brought an amplifier to augment his guitar.
So we played, but it really didnt make any difference because you couldnt hear us, Mr. Wilson said in the oral history. He just wiped us out bang, bang, bang on his guitar.
Recalling Mr. Berrys famous duck walk, which made women in the bar swoon, Mr. Wilson said, We considered that silly music because we were jazz aficionados. He and his friends were more enamored of Mr. Parker and Mr. Davis.
Mr. Wilson graduated from Washington University in St. Louis with a bachelors degree in music, then earned a masters in music composition from the University of Illinois and a Ph.D. in music composition from the University of Iowa, where his dissertation was a long piece called Three Movements for Orchestra.
After teaching at Florida A&M University from 1960 to 1965, Mr. Wilson joined the faculty of Oberlins Conservatory of Music. In addition to teaching music theory and composition, he established a course in African-American music as well as the schools electronic music studio. After his departure, the studio turned into a program known as Technology in Music and the Related Arts.
With electronic media, he told a music department publication at Berkeley in 1997, you can work with sound like a sculptor or painter.
He joined Berkeley in 1970 where he would teach until 2002 and soon after received the Guggenheim grant to study music in Ghana. His year in West Africa was the inspiration for an orchestral piece, Shango Memory, a celebration of Shango, a Nigerian deity, and what he called the cultural memory of African ideas reflected in music.
At Berkeley, he was also an administrator dealing with affirmative action in the 1970s and 80s and helped diversify the music curriculum.
Mr. Wilson received numerous commissions, including two from the conductor Seiji Ozawa one when Mr. Ozawa was music director of the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra, the second when he was music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
Another commissioned work, for the Boston Musica Viva ensemble, was A City Called Heaven, which has elements of swing music, blues, spirituals and boogie-woogie. It was first performed in 1989.
You cant think of that piece without being overwhelmed by its imagination, said Mr. Thompson, who is also a music professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Its all based on the spirituality thats common in the black community. He had the courage and skill to do it, and thats how black culture appears in the classical canon.
In addition to his daughter, Mr. Wilson is survived by his wife, the former Elouise Woods; his son, Kent; his sisters Marion Palmer and Barbara Washington; and six grandchildren.
Mr. Wilson described in the oral history how his work as a scholar affected his work as a composer.
Because I studied African music and the history of African-American music doesnt necessarily mean that I consciously draw upon that when I do my work as a creative artist, he said. But I think the pleasure that that gives me and the understanding that gives me does reflect positively on what I do as a creative artist.

Information, ideas, tips…the articles for professional advisers which I spotted this week that generate fresh thinking or a deeper understanding of issues are provided here as a quick readers digest for professionals who are looking ahead.
These are the highlights from the week that you should stop and read, as they are the best I've seen.
There is so much good information for professional services made available each week, much of which I share, that it is very easy to forget to pause and reflect. Each week I select the best handful and give them Tony's BIG Ticks as being the ones that made me pause and reflect, or think further. They are sometimes thought-provoking, perhaps insightful, maybe a great sales or marketing idea or sometimes just incredibly topical.
"The applications of client-facing technology in the retail investment business have expanded in sophistication enough to influence the strategic positioning of firms in the wealth-management space. Large and small firms alike are accelerating their spending on technology in response to client demand and competitive pressures…"
If these folk are right and you were hoping your advice business was your retirement funding, then you'd best get to work building it up…it isn't good news!
Don't be misled by the word "Banking" – I think this could apply right across the full financial services spectrum…consumers are expecting more than we are delivering when it comes to personalisation…
Recent surveys reveal the rapidly increasing concern of consumers about privacy and data protection here, and any thinking adviser will understand that where consumers expectations and concerns rise, so too does the regulators. Prepare to take this area a lot more seriously – and have to spend more money on it…
Great insights for advisers on how to pick a great manager:
"…In engaging with companies in their stock portfolio, asset owners that added ten-year net value in our survey prioritized corporate strategy, capital allocation, board governance, and compensation practices in their engagement."…"

Fall is truly the best time to be at Walt Disney World. Not only do you get to experience all of the big holidays like Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, but you get to experience the Food & Wine Festival – which is practically a holiday in itself!
I'm a big Food & Wine fan so I dropped everything and was at Epcot right on opening day. It was well worth it!!
We were in the park for a long time so I got to sample quite a few dishes!
1. Japan – Garlic Shrimp: This is a pretty basic dish but I thought it was delicious. You can never go wrong with a shrimp and rice combo!
2. Braised Beef – Hops and Barley (in the American Adventure Pavilion): This was good but a little spicy! It was also difficult to cut while I was up and walking around. I'm glad I got it once but that will probably be it for the year for me!
3. Buttered Chicken – Africa: This is an absolute must do! If you know me at all, you know how much I love Sanaa. This is like the mini version of the buttered chicken they have there, so obviously I was in love. The only thing that was missing was some basmati rice!
4. Black Pepper Shrimp with Noodles – China: Thus far, this is my favorite dish at Food & Wine. Whatever seasoning they use on those noodles is so delectable. I highly recommend this dish! Plus for the price you pay, you get quite a lot of food. Everyone I have told about it so far has only come back with positive reviews!
(Floral Minnie Ears by @taleasoldastimeco)
5. Liquid Nitro Chocolate Almond Truffle – Chocolate Studio: This one gets mixed reviews but I personally like it a lot! It almost reminds me of space ice cream… but smoother and creamier. I also think it tastes like hot chocolate! I would definitely give it a try if you're even relatively interested, it's such a unique dish!
6. Cheddar Cheese Soup, Pretzel Bread, and Filet Mignon – Canada: Did you really go to Food & Wine if you didn't get these items? They're classic staples of not only Food & Wine, but also Epcot in general. You can get the full version at Le Cellier in the Canada Pavilion! However, if you're looking to save a little time and money, stock up on your filet fill during Food & Wine. It's well worth it!
I don't think I could have had a more successful first day of the festival! I can't wait to see what other delicious dishes I get to taste over the next couple months!
Have you been to the Food & Wine Festival? Leave a comment with your favorite foods or drinks below! I can't wait to see what you all think!

Measure tape: In order to facilitate reading the data in the slot, the mark starts with 5 cm (2 inches), NOT START FROM 0 cm.
This product is special designed for tracking the change of the fat. The best way to keep track of your progress is by measuring your body fat. Since the majority of your body fat is underneath your skin, the best method for testing your body fat percentage is through the skinfold method.
So how do you measure your body fat percentage with the skinfold method?
You can do so in 3 steps. Pinch, Click and Read. You can do so privately or with someone's help if you prefer sharing that information. To start with, make sure the slide on the curved part of the caliper tool is all the way to the right.
Pinch: While standing, with your fingers 2-3 inches apart, firmly grasp the suprailliac skinfold (the area above your hips) between the thumb and index finger of your left hand. Gently pull the skinfold away from your body. Pull the skin and underlying at away from the muscle tissue.
Click It: With the Caliper Tool in your right hand, place the jaws over your skinfold about from your left thumb and index finger. The caliper tool should be halfway between the base and crest of the fold. It should be perpendicular to the fold. Now with your thumb press the Caliper Tool until you feel a slight "click". Release the jaws of the caliper tool and record your measurement to the nearest millimeter.
Read: Refer to the male or female chart to determine your body fat percentage at the intersection of your age and millimeter reading.
How to use the tape measure:
1. Place the plastic pin at the end of the tape into the hole on the plastic holder.

A cover letter can really boost your resume, especially when so many job seekers don't take the time to create one! While not all job postings request a cover letter, assessing how well you follow directions may determine whether your resume is even reviewed.
A targeted cover letter is also another opportunity to naturally integrate keywords from the job posting and optimize your cover letter for Applicant Tracking software. If you don't know how to write a cover letter or don't see the value in writing a cover letter, these tips are for you.
Determine If You Need A Cover Letter
Most mid-sized to large corporations will see an average of 250+ resumes and job applications per job opening. Most recruiters, HR professionals, and hiring managers won't spend the time reading each resume. That's why many job postings don't request a cover letter.
First, determine if you even need a cover letter. Don't provide an employer with more than what is requested. This advice also applies to letters of recommendation or other supplementary information.
Analyze The Job Posting
The job posting will help identify not only the requirements and preferred qualifications desired for the job but also the company's values. These details will help you target both your resume and your cover letter.
Pay special attention to the terminology used. You should mimic the terminology used in the job posting to align your values, goals, and qualifications with the keywords found in the job description.
Start With Targeting Your Resume
Before writing anything on your cover letter, you should naturally integrate the keywords that you've identified in the job posting into your resume. Targeting your resume first will help you maintain a consistent message across both documents.
If you target your cover letter and use varying terminology or submit a resume with a separate focus, this will confuse both the Applicant Tracking software and the recruiter or HR professional reviewing your documents. Keep your documents consistent by targeting your resume before targeting your cover letter.
Get A Name
Your cover letter should never begin with "To Whom This Concerns" or "Dear Hiring Manager." With the resources at your disposal, there is no reason you can't spend a few extra minutes tracking down the name of the hiring manager who is going to review your resume.
First, check the job posting. Next, check the company's website or LinkedIn. When all else fails, call the company and ask if you can get the name specifically to address your cover letter. This approach shows authenticity and effort. Employers like both.
Address The Employer's Needs Upfront
Now you're ready to start writing your cover letter. Within the first paragraph or two of the job posting, you should identify what the goal of this role is. That goal will directly identify the employer's immediate needs. If you're applying for a sales-related role and the job description identifies that this person is primarily responsible for developing and strengthening customer relationships, then that is a need that needs to be addressed upfront.
Your cover letter should be more focused on the employer than on your wants or needs. The first paragraph should address the employer's immediate need by either identifying it as your passion, forte, or primary strength.
Highlight Your Qualifications
The job posting will also list the requirements or qualifications desired for the position. Your cover letter is a great location to introduce very specific qualifications such as the preferred years of experience and skill sets.
You don't necessarily want to repeat or copy what is already on your resume, but you can use your cover letter to introduce your qualifications and how they relate directly to that role. This is also a great exercise in assessing whether or not you are qualified for the jobs you are applying for.
Use Examples From Your Resume
Your cover letter should complement your resume by highlighting specific examples from your resume that present you as the most qualified or as a candidate that will add value to the organization. Highlight any measurable achievements that relate to the employer's needs or desired skill sets (dollars earned, percentages saved, people trained, etc.).
To keep your cover letter from becoming lengthy, condense 3-4 examples in an easy-to-scan bullet list. Start with the result and then describe which skills you leveraged to achieve those results. If you would rather focus on examples of your qualifications than any measurable achievements, start with phrases like "Dynamic marketing professional with 10+ years of experience in …" or "Strong background in …" to engage the reader right away.
Integrate A Few Transferable (Soft) Skills
Your cover letter can also include transferable skills, or soft skills, that otherwise look like unwanted buzzwords in a resume. For example, you could describe how your communication skills make you an excellent addition to collaborative teams. Limit this information to one paragraph to keep your cover letter focused on your qualifications and goals.
Some other soft skills that you can elaborate on include teamwork, managing priorities or tasks, organization, and basic computer skills that are indicated as requirements.
Ask For A Response
Your cover letter should conclude with a request. Ask for an interview or, better yet, to discuss the employer's needs in more detail. To transition into this paragraph, identify why this role or employer is a great fit for you and encourage a response.
Don't forget to thank them for their consideration and end your letter with a professional closure such as "Sincerely" or "Warmest Regards."
Proofread For Typos
Before doing ANYTHING else, read through your cover letter and closely proofread for any typos. This document could be the very first impression you make on an employer, and a typo could jeopardize any chance of your resume being reviewed.
Consider asking a friend or colleague to look it over too. Another set of eyes could save you from embarrassment and silence from the other end of the job application.
Bonus: Create An E-Cover Version
The job search primarily occurs online, so a traditional cover letter is becoming outdated. Creating an e-cover version of your cover letter will help when forwarding your resume by LinkedIn message or email and when prompted to copy-and-paste into an electronic form.
To create an e-cover, save a copy of your cover letter (so you will have both formats). Select all the text and click on the Clear Formatting button. Add in dashes or asterisks to replace your bullet list of examples, and adjust the spacing if necessary. This will make it quick and easy to copy-and-paste without worrying about formatting discrepancies.
