They say everything's big in Texas. Take the bank accounts of Oil and Energy companies like Valero and Tesoro. California is big business for them which is why they're the ones behind a measure aimed at suspending AB-32. That's the law that sets limits on greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles and oil refineries (among others). Its purpose is to encourage clean energy and renewable resources like solar and wind power, to reduce emissions and keep the sun from burning up the earth.
California apparently subscribes to the global warming theory. The big oil companies don't. How could they? They rely on all those emissions to keep their coffers full. Why would they want us to use less oil and gas? Exactly. That's apparently why they're trying to stop AB-32.
Proponents of this effort are calling the measure the "California Jobs Initiative". They want to stop AB-32 from being enforced until the state unemployment rate falls below 5.5% for at least a year. The unemployment rate is more than 12% now. California hasn't seen 5.5% since 2007 and with a struggling economy is it likely the rate will go that low any time soon?
It's probably going to be a while which is exactly what the oil companies seem to be banking on. This is a chance for them to avoid mandatory emission reporting and fee requirements for major polluters. Like them.
But with clean, renewable energy awareness gaining ground it seems these big companies are trying to hold on to their profits by holding off California law with a whip and chair. Governor Schwarzenegger isn't amused. Why would he be? With the unpopular fiscal choices he's had to make and the state still $19 billion in the hole, this law is one big environmentally positive feather in his cap. "I will not let this happen on my watch" he says.
We'll see. These energy interests got the signatures they needed to get the measure on the November ballot. Get ready for the ads. With so much at stake one can only imagine the millions of dollars both sides will be throwing at this campaign.

Wesley Saunders had a career-best 11 assists (Kevin Burns).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Wesley Saunders recorded his first-career double-double, scoring 15 points and assisting on 11 baskets, as the Harvard men's basketball team topped Yale, 67-64, before a sold out Lavietes Pavilion Friday evening.
Laurent Rivard drained 5-of-7 3-pointers, finishing with 15 points, and Steve Moundou-Missi added 12 points and seven boards, as the Crimson improves to 11-6 overall and 3-0 in the Ivy League. Armani Cotton tallied 14 points to lead Yale, who slips to 7-13 and 1-2 in the Ancient Eight.
The Crimson shot 54.8 percent (23-of-42) for the game and outrebounded Yale, 28-25. Harvard also made 8-of-13 treys (.615) and assisted on 17 of 23 baskets.
After Yale opened a 6-0 lead, Saunders made a bucket in the paint, but the Bulldogs added another basket to go up 8-2. With Harvard trailing, 10-2, Saunders dished a pass to Rivard, who nailed a 3-pointer, making it 10-5. After Saunders made two foul shots, Chambers launched a triple, tying the game, 10-10. The Crimson grabbed its first lead, 14-12, when Moundou-Missi finished with a layup on the break.
With Yale leading, 16-14, Saunders drove the lane and finished with a finger roll, knotting the game. Moundou-Missi connected on another layup, putting the Crimson up 18-16, and then Rivard made a trey, making it a three-point lead, 21-18. With 8:20 left in the first, Christian Webster drained a 3-pointer from the corner, forcing Yale to call timeout, 24-18. Moundou-Missi threw down a two-handed dunk with just under seven minutes to go, 30-20, and then Chambers hit his second triple, 33-23.
Down the stretch in the half, Saunders handed out his seventh assist on a 3-pointer by Rivard, as the Crimson opened a 38-25 advantage. Moments later, Saunders extended his streak of games with double digits in points to 17 games with a bucket, as Harvard led, 40-25, and closed the half with a 38-17 run. Saunders led Harvard with 10 points and seven helpers in the first, and the Crimson shot 57.1 percent from the floor (16-of-28) and had assists on 12 of the 16 baskets.
In the second, Yale went on a 7-2 run to get within eight, 42-34, but Rivard made his fourth 3-pointer to extend the Crimson lead to 45-34. At the 15:45 mark, Rivard drained another triple, keeping Harvard up by 11, 48-37. Moments later, Saunders made a reverse move in the paint and finished with a bucket, and then Moundou-Missi accepted a pass from Saunders, scoring on a reverse layup, 53-40.
Saunders secured his double-double with 10:28 left when he sent an inbound pass to Kenyatta Smith for a layup, 55-42. The Bulldogs went on a 7-1 run, pulling within seven, 56-49, with just under six minutes remaining. With four minutes to go, Jonah Travis scored on a two-handed jam, 59-51, and Chambers made the second of two free throws, 60-53.
In the final minute of action, Chambers headed to the line and hit drained both, putting Harvard up seven, 62-55. With 50.4 ticks left, Alex Nesbitt went to the charity stripe and hit the first of two shots, 63-56. Yale got within three, 63-60, with just 19.3 seconds remaining, but Moundou-Missi drained both, as the Crimson led, 65-60.
The Crimson hosts Brown tomorrow evening at Lavietes Pavilion at 7 p.m.

Sept. 25, 2010
BOSTON, MA-The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's men's soccer team scored twice in the first 25 minutes and went on to defeat host UMass Boston, 2-1, in a Little East Conference match at the Clark Athletic Center Saturday.
Senior defender Andrew Eggleston (Belchertown, MA/Belchertown HS) put UMass Dartmouth ahead when he headed home a cross from sophomore midfielder Kyle Duarte (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS) in the game's 11th minute. The Corsairs doubled their lead when they were credited with an own goal in the 25th minute when a UMass Boston defender attempted to clear a loose ball and kicked it into his own goal.
Errol Turtugalp cut the Corsairs' lead to 2-1 when he chipped home a shot from the left side of the box in the 73rd minute.
"Andrew made a great play on his goal," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Henry Almeida. "On the next goal, (senior forward) Kyle Estrella (Dartmouth, MA/Dartmouth HS/RIC) was putting on the pressure, and the defender clipped it right by the keeper. We had control of the tempo in the first half, (freshman defender) Alex Machado (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS) and Andrew were tremendous. They won every 50-50 ball and allowed us to press forward."
The Corsairs continued to put on the pressure in the second half. "Alex had a free kick in the second half from 38 yards out and he rang it off the crossbar," said Almeida. :Our young players really performed well under pressure."
UMass Boston out shot UMass Dartmouth, 20-13. Sophomore goalkeeper Kellen Rauch (Ashland, MA/Ashland HS) made nine saves for UMD, while Brycen Dowd made seven for the Beacons.
The Corsairs improved to 5-1-0 and 1-1-0 in the Little East Conference with the victory, while the Beacons dropped to 1-6-0 and 0-2-0 in the LEC with the defeat. UMass Dartmouth will return to action when they visit Connecticut College Tuesday.

Input sought on revised JAG performance measures
The revision process included telephone interviews, a focus group, meetings with stakeholders and conferring with consultants in the field
The Bureau of Justice Assistance has released a request for input on the newly revised performance measures for the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG). Over the past year, BJA has been in the process of revising the performance measures for the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. During the process, BJA held telephone interviews, a focus group, and meetings with stakeholders, conferred with consultants in the field, and made presentations to constituent groups.
According to the announcement posted at their website, BJA states that the new measures were developed to provide grantees with the opportunity to better describe how JAG funding is being used and to describe program accomplishments. The revision process will help BJA meet internal and external reporting requirements from the White House, the Government Accountability Office, and Congress. Grantees have the option of reviewing the entire set of performance measures for the JAG program or the questions by purpose area. Comments on the measures can be submitted in the same way, using the feedback form. The form will allow grantees to answer specific questions BJA has regarding some of the measures. Grantees will be able to list their concerns regarding data collection and reporting on the new measures, and provide general feedback on the measures for BJA.
The draft performance measures have been posted at the BJA website for review and comment. You may review the entire set of new measures or simply comment within your purpose areas, law enforcement. It also allows for input concerns about the impact of these new measures on the department. The comment form is clear and easy to use. It begins with gathering background information concerning your department and JAG funding. The law enforcement form then moves to the following areas of comment: Programs, Personnel, and Equipment Purchases, Improvements made to Technology, Training, Task Forces, and Accomplishments. By providing concrete and constructive experiences and outcomes your department can assist in the improvement of the performance measurement process.
A section is also provided for narrative style input. This section includes information about your departments JAG related accomplishments, outcomes of your grant goals, identification of problem or barriers encountered with program implementation, how difficult it is to fiscally track and complete your grant program and major activities and innovative program accomplishments. The is a good opportunity for your department to clearly assist the Bureau of Justice programs in gaining a full understanding of the challenges and problems with their requirements and the real-time implementation of their JAG grant program.
To access the Revised Performance Measures and provide your comments and thoughts click here.
Meeting grant performance measurements can be a challenging. Grants are supplemental tasks to your daily work load. They require constant diligence to maintain data and information required for the quarterly submission of program outcomes. The financial reports must accurately reflect the income and expenses for each quarter. Staying on top of the management requirements of each and every grant will assist your department in avoiding a major federal audit. This is a good time to provide your constructive thoughts to the funder. Make sure you keep a copy of your input and concerns to utilize when you submit your next JAG Grant application as a reminder of things you will need to address in the new application.
The deadline for comments is February 24, 2012.
Best wishes with your grant endeavors!

Most docks just play music. That's so vanilla! Pair your iWhatever with the TimeCommand dock and the accompanying app and you can dim your f-ing lamp from your phone. And set lamp-assisted alarms with back-up battery insurance.
If TimeCommand sounds like some futuristic government branch in a dystopian sci-fi movie, well, that's about the level this iPod/iPad/iPhone command station is on, at least compared to others of its ilk. How's that? Well...
First, AUTOMATED LAMP CONTROL. Plug one in to the TimeCommand's power supply and you can dim it from your iDevice (if it has an incandescent bulb), or set it to automatically shut on or off when you're waking up or falling asleep. Very futuristic.
The TimeCommand has exceedingly complex versions of all the regular features too. It plays your iPhones' tunes—with a 10-band equalizer. It lets you set alarms—and packs a back-up battery in case your power goes out in the middle of the night. Just don't tell your boss you have this incredible, infallable never-be-late-to-work machine.
The TimeCommand will be available in Apple Stores this month. [Stem Innovation]

* Vice president faces Republican Ryan in debate on Thursday
* Biden expected to be more aggressive than Obama
* For Ryan, debate is a national debut
By John Whitesides
WASHINGTON, Oct 7 (Reuters) - He has been stereotyped as the Obama administration's gaffe-prone sideshow.
But Vice President Joe Biden also is a veteran debater who was in the U.S. Senate for a quarter century and is perhaps the Democratic White House's most passionate defender of the working class.
Now, with his debate against Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan coming up on Thursday, Biden is under pressure to help President Barack Obama's campaign recapture the momentum it enjoyed before Obama was outmaneuvered by Republican rival Mitt Romney last week in the first of their three debates.
That debate trimmed Obama's lead in the polls and raised the stakes for the lone vice presidential debate, which also will be a national debut of sorts for Ryan, the Wisconsin congressman and budget specialist.
With the Romney-Ryan campaign energized, Democrats are in the surprising position of relying on Biden, a perpetual political wild card, to fire up their campaign. Democrats did get a boost in Friday's jobs report, which showed the nation's unemployment rate dipped below 8 percent last month for the first time since January 2009, the month Obama took office.
"This is not about changing minds. This is about changing the momentum," Democratic strategist Chris Kofinis said. "The vice president is going to have to be very aggressive in undercutting Republican arguments. He can't allow Ryan to control the debate the way Romney controlled his debate."
An aggressive Romney went after Obama in their debate, offering what appeared to be new positions - misrepresentations, Democrats claimed later - on taxes, healthcare and other issues.
Obama, strangely passive, left many of Romney's assertions unanswered. It will be up to Biden, far more comfortable than Obama in the role of aggressor, to fill in the blanks on what Democrats say are Romney's shifting positions.
Biden could be well suited to the role.
He was a sharper performer than Obama when they debated as presidential candidates during the 2008 Democratic primaries. The former Delaware senator's blunt-talking style makes him a particularly effective communicator with blue-collar voters.
"Biden has a chance to undo some of the damage from the first debate," said David Steinberg, a debate coach and political communications specialist at the University of Miami.
"The vice president's biggest job will be as a fact checker," he said. "He can come in and say, 'Well, this is what Governor Romney said last Wednesday, and this is why it's wrong.'"
Biden, campaigning in Iowa on Thursday, said he had been studying Republican campaign positions and promised to hold Ryan accountable while sticking to the facts.
"I don't want to say anything in the debate that's not completely accurate," Biden told reporters. "I just want to make sure that when I say those things I don't have the congressman say, 'No, no, no, I don't have that position,' or 'That's not the governor's position.'"
The next presidential debate - the second of three - will not be until Oct. 16, leaving Thursday's vice presidential showdown in Danville, Kentucky, as the next major item on the campaign calendar in the race to the Nov. 6 election.
Vice presidential debates rarely play a role in deciding a White House race, but Romney's decisive win in the first presidential debate has cranked up interest in Thursday's encounter.
Biden, the former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations and Judiciary committees, fared well in his face-off against Republican Sarah Palin in the 2008 vice presidential debate and proved to be a strong debater during his failed bid for president four years ago.
But he also has a reputation for gaffes, including his recent remark that the middle class has been "buried for the last four years" - the span of Obama's presidency - by a bad economy.
Biden was referring to the fallout from the recession that began under Republican President George W. Bush, but Romney and Ryan pounced on Biden's comment, saying that even Obama's running mate was acknowledging that the president had fallen short in overseeing the economy.
Last spring, Biden forced Obama's hand on endorsing same-sex marriage when the vice president declared his support for it during a television interview.
Biden is portrayed at times as a political buffoon, but his defenders say the mistakes are evidence of a straight-talking style that makes him a hit with many voters - and that can play well in a debate setting.
"Biden has got something going for him in a debate, which is a sense of humor," said Alan Schroeder of Northeastern University's Alan Schroeder, who has written a history of presidential debates.
"Both Romney and Obama are humor-challenged, and Paul Ryan has not shown himself to be a barrel of laughs, so Biden has a chance to bring some theatricality and some show-business energy to the debate that will make it more interesting," Schroeder said.
Ryan, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, is popular with conservatives for his plan to slash government spending and create a "voucher" system for the Medicare healthcare program for seniors. Democrats say that a voucher system could leave some seniors having to pay for much more of their medical costs.
Ryan is an unknown quantity in a debate setting, with his only previous experience coming in a few low-profile congressional encounters in his native Wisconsin.
"This is the big game and Ryan is playing on a stage that he's never had experience with, so he'll be under a great deal of pressure, too," Schroeder said.
A Reuters/Ipsos online poll of 2,367 voters this week found both men have work to do on their image, with "very unfavorable" being the most popular view of each. Biden scored better than Ryan, 39 percent to 33 percent, on the question of who was more qualified to take over as president.
Ryan and Biden have taken time off the campaign trail to prepare for Thursday's debate.
Democratic Rep. Chris Van Hollen has played Ryan in mock debates with Biden; former U.S. Solicitor General Ted Olson has played Biden in sessions with Ryan.
Van Hollen said Obama's performance in last week's debate had not changed the Democratic strategy heading into the vice presidential encounter.
"The focus is on the choice the American people face in this election," he said.
Even if the vice presidential debate is typically less meaningful than the presidential encounters, neither campaign can afford a slip-up before an expected television audience in the tens of millions.
"Every inch matters in this campaign," Republican strategist Ron Bonjean said. "The polls are going to tighten up, and you don't know what Biden you are going to get."
But Biden's reputation for mistakes could lower expectations for him.
"It would be nice to be Biden," Steinberg said. "He's got a wider range of stuff he can say and people go, 'Oh, that's just Biden.' If Ryan said it, they will be looking at him through a microscope."

(From an article adapted on hbook.com from the 2011 Zena Sutherland Lecture by Mo Williems-May 6, 2011, at the Chicago Public Library.)
In the past it was enough to say that if you get a book into a kid's hands, you're creating a "lifelong reader." But why does that matter? Do we really want "lifelong readers"? Shouldn't they at least get to take occasional bathroom breaks? Why is this extraneous question here in the middle of these other ones? And, what does reading do that makes it so special?
To be honest, books as we know them are looking pretty vulnerable right now. They can't talk back to you. If you shake them, they don't do things. You can't turn them on. They don't make sounds. They don't have word jumbles or other not-terribly-fun games. What do they do? With all the new technological possibilities, why not file Books between Betamax and Eight-Track Tapes?
I've thought about this very seriously of late and I'm not out of the rabbit hole yet, so first let me just go through my own personal journey with the nitty-gritty of making books to see if there is value to be found there.
In the past eight years or so, I've written and illustrated numerous books, yet I really never know what I'm doing when I create a book. That is why I love it. It's an adventure with no guarantee that it will work out in the end. I am alone in a sea of ideas, hoping to catch a current that will lead to an undiscovered land. Well, I'm not completely alone. I have the structure of my past work, and I am guided through the storms by this simple mantra: always think of your audience; never think for your audience.
This is done by putting as little as possible into the final work so as to leave room for my audience to enhance the story. As a simple test, if I re-read one of my manuscripts and I understand exactly what is happening, then the manuscript has too many words. And if I look at the images without the words and I can fully understand the story, there are too many drawings. It is only right when both words and image need each other to make any sense. They need to be as close to incomprehensible, separately, as possible.
Yes, I make incomprehensible books for illiterates.
Incomprehensible also because I never know what the book I've made "means." That's my audience's job. You, the reader, create meaning out of the story; I just set the table. The fundamental truth of this was driven home when I read two early reviews for my first picture book, Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! The first one said, "I love this book because it teaches perseverance. It teaches kids never to give up. To fight on." The second review said, "I love this book because it teaches kids to value the word 'no,' to know when to stop."
Here's the thing: both reviews were right. Their authors each brought their own selves to the story and in their minds created meanings that had never occurred to me. They became the co-authors of the book, implanting the meaning that was purposefully omitted, or perhaps obscured. Because, truth be told, I don't have any answers. I'm not interested in them.
Why would I want to write about things I know? I already know them. I prefer to write about things I don't know, about things that perplex me, create a sense of wonder in me, or are simply weird. So I write about things like: What is a friend? How do you keep a friend? How does what you do by accident change your environment and how do you come to grips with that? Wouldn't it be cool to drive a bus? You know, the sort of fundamental, deep emotional questions that we all have. (All rules have exceptions and my second book, Time to Pee! is one. Personally, I've been urinating with great success for years, so I did know what I was writing about that time. But I wasn't sure why my kid was reluctant to do it in a particular room.)
Writing is, like any athletics, a learned skill refined only by consistent and strenuous workouts over time. I learned how to write from years and years of writing and performing sketch comedy, making short animated films, and writing cartoon strips, all of which stemmed from a deep abiding love of sketch comedy. Bill Cosby's albums, the Monty Python television series, Peanuts comic strips—they are all perfect sketches. Clean, pure, but structured with a deep understanding of the world and how it works.
I learned how to write for children, however, with great reluctance. As fate would have it, in my strivings to be a sketch comedy writer I found myself being hired to write sketch comedy for a show that targeted children, called Sesame Street. At first I didn't care that I was working on a kiddie show; I was writing sketch! Just like my pals on MTV or in the hipster clubs. If I squinted just right, the "kids" part of my work disappeared.
Then, over a season or two, something unexpected happened. I realized that writing for Sesame Street wasn't easier, or even equally as difficult, as the sketch material I'd been doing previously. It was harder. I couldn't use cultural modifiers: the entire world of pop culture references, that lazy backbone of sketch, was lost to me. Arc de Triomphe, Super Bowl, Cadillac. Those are just silly sounds to kids; they have no emotional meaning. Not because kids are stupid, but because they're new. They just got here. All they have is jealousy, anger, love, joy, fear. Writing for a kid means you can't exploit genres and fads and fashions. The only weapon left in your arsenal is truth.
It was revelatory and life changing (and frankly liberating: I didn't have to keep up on pop culture, freeing up lots of time for adventures). My path was set; now I wanted—no, I was compelled—to write for people who were just starting out in life.
This began a period of great introspection. I thought long and hard about my childhood and slowly realized a fundamental truth that is the complete opposite of what everyone tells you about childhood: namely, it sucks to be a kid.
Certainly, in contrast to the life of a grownup, kids have it hard. Every piece of furniture is built to the wrong scale for you. You have to ask permission to urinate. And some adult might say no. Try this as a test: next time you're at a dinner party, say, "May I go to the bathroom?" Then imagine your hostess saying, "No, I don't think so. You're staying right there. And finish those smelly vegetables. I know you want to retch. I don't care. Eat them."
And kids don't have years of experience to fall back on. Every disappointment, every failure, is a world-stopping first. How do they survive? How did we all survive that? I'm not sure. But recently I've realized they have one shield in their lives that most of us adults have lost: they haven't yet learned to be embarrassed.
And that's what embarrassment is: a learned behavior.
So TV got me to want to write for unembarrassed kids. But television wasn't done teaching me an essential key to writing.
At some point in my career I found myself being asked to create a TV show. Foolishly, I was told I could do anything I wanted; more foolishly, I did. I created a show called Sheep in the Big City. Has anybody heard of the show? Raise your hands. Okay. You six guys. Great. You made up sixty percent of my audience.
For the rest of you, the show was about a sheep. And a big city. The sheep, named Sheep, is being chased by General Specific and his henchman Private Public, members of a top-secret military organization named The Top-Secret Military Organization trying to capture this urban sheep to put it in a sheep-powered ray gun. Now why not use another sheep, you ask? Well, because they had already built the ray gun to his specifications. Mixed in with the episodes are lots of spoof commercials for products—the Oxymoron Brand of useless products.
And every episode ended with thirty seconds of a ranting Swede.
Almost as quickly as it hit the air this show was canceled. Can you believe it?
I couldn't.
I'd worked so long and so hard, ensuring that every joke was as funny, or as weird, as possible. Still, very, very few people enjoyed it. I was flummoxed.
The real reason why the show was canceled came not from the network but from a ten-year-old on some message board who wrote, "I don't like this show because the writer is trying too hard." Trying too hard? That shocked me to my core.
I could not think of another industry where this would be a problem. "Oh, man. Y'know that plumber, Joe? What is up with that guy? He shows up early. He comes in, he plumbs the hell out of the house, doesn't take a single cigarette break, I don't see butt once. He's working soooo hard…I don't trust him."
But in writing it's different. The people watching Sheep in the Big City or reading my stories are not interested in me or the work I do. It shouldn't look like work to them. It's just a story. A magical thing that suddenly, effortlessly, appears and entertains and provokes. Certainly such a thing can't be made. The lesson is, if you're not invisible, you're not doing your job. So, work harder until no one sees you.
I should have known that. I should have known better.
You know, I started out doing stand-up comedy when I was in high school. And the reason I did was because the comedy club was the only place I could go and be guaranteed that no one would laugh at me. But over time you develop those muscles. You write joke after joke after joke after joke, and, ever so slowly, you learn what doesn't work. What you learn is not "what is funny" but "what is not funny." So when you're writing, you write to get rid of all the not-funny stuff until what's left, hopefully, works. I want to have as few words as possible. I want the whole story to just be hanging by a thread. So my audience will become invested in it and save it.
It's the same with my images. Everything I do is reductive. I make my drawings as simple as possible to the point of abstraction. Put as little in as possible. Because kids can "make" books, I consciously design my characters so that they can be easily copied by a five-year-old.
Every month, I get a box of fan mail—it's just awesome. Kids send me their books. Their actual books. Don't Let the Pigeon Operate the Catapult. Don't Let the Pigeon Audit Your Neighbor. The Pigeon Gets a Cell Phone. All kinds of just amazing stuff, and that's the highest possible compliment; that's the ultimate goal.
It's how I got started. I started out drawing Charlie Brown pictures. I loved it so much I wrote to Charles Schulz once when I was five and said, "Dear Mr. Schulz, may I have your job when you die?" Man, I loved Charlie Brown. I grew up in the early seventies, and every other pop cultural character was blissfully happy. Remember? The landscape was filled with gleeful rodents on lithium running across the screen. I felt bad that I wasn't as happy as those mice. But there was always "Chuck." A kid whose life was worse than mine. Awesome.
That comic strip was printed on cheap newsprint. It was meant to be thrown away, unlike a piece of art. But it was useful. It was useful to me. That corner of the newspaper that showed up every day gave me more consolation in my lonely childhood world than anyone or anything.
That's what I want my books to be: utilitarian. You don't drink coffee out of a mug because it's a work of art. You drink out of a mug because it works, then you worry if it is pretty or not. In the same way, whatever ideas you're going to pour into my book, I need to make sure it can hold them first. Because that's all a book can do. It can hold just two ideas: the author's and the audience's.
But the book doesn't work, it can't work, unread.
So back to my question of "Why books?" What if books are better because they don't do things, because they can't do things? What if the thing that makes books great, that makes them essential, is that books need us? They're simple. You invest in them and become part of them. You contribute. They can be read, but they can also be played. I'm not really interested in you guys reading my books a hundred times; read it twenty times and then make your own story. Go from consuming a story to creating your own. This is a magical thing to me.
I have a running machine in my house, and if I set that machine for twenty minutes of fast running and leave the room to get some tea and fried eggs, it doesn't know the difference! Nor, I might add, does it care.
And I think that's what most enhanced digital books are at this point. With all their bells and whistles and word jumbles and assorted narrative killers, after we turn them on, they don't need us. Turn it on and leave the room, and the book will read itself.
But a real book is helpless. It needs us desperately. We have to pull it off the shelf. We have to open it up. We have to turn the pages, one by one. We even have to use our imagination to make it work. What does Elephant Gerald sound like? Is the Pigeon a boy or a girl? Does Leonardo the Terrible Monster live in the city or in the country?
We have to do all of that, we have to do the work with our little minds and our flapping flights of fancy. So, suddenly, that book is not just a book; it's our book. We're the ones making it work. We're the ones making it sing. Right there in our chairs as we gently flip the pages, we are, at our own pace, creating a living story just by reading.
And you don't have to turn off a book during takeoff and landing.
So, maybe books work because they make us work. Maybe we need them for needing us, just like we need real friends, not the digital imitations on Facebook.
Thank you for bearing with me.

Modern external radiotherapy is delivered in many ways, each with advantages and disadvantages.
3-Dimensional Conformal RT
The tumor is measured in 3-dimensions and a radiation pattern is computed in software and beamed at the tumor by an X-ray emitter that circles the patient, minimizing the radiation to surrounding tissues. The beams can be shaped in real time to match the shape of the tumor in the current direction of treatment. This is an improvement over 2-D X-ray RT where

It can be hard to find information about drugs we might want to use and how they performed in clinical trials. Google Scholar is one of my first lines of search.
I've found that adding the search string:
median "95% CI"
(including the double-quotes around 95% CI) to my drug queries help limit the returned hits to useful papers. So, a search for papers containing results using the drug Abraxane might be:

Oregon residents.. IMPORTANT!!!
please read and respond to the email address list below !!!
this is an attack at our rights as Americans and should not be tolerated.
Oregon Reintroduces Bill to Limit Suspension/Tire Alterations
A bill (H.B. 3147) has been introduced in the Oregon legislature that would severely limit vehicle suspension, body lift and wheel/tire alterations. Specifically, H.B. 3147 would ban vehicles whose bumpers are elevated more than 3 inches over the original manufactured bumper clearance. Identical legislation was last introduced in Oregon in 2001.
We Urge You to Contact Members of the Oregon House Committee on Transportation and Economic Development (List Attached Below) Immediately to Request Their Opposition to H.B. 3147
· H.B. 3147 would ban reasonably altered vehicles due to overstated concerns with bumper mismatch.
· H.B. 3147 discriminates against hobbyists and aftermarket parts makers by leaving it solely to the vehicle manufacturers to choose bumper heights.
· H.B. 3147 would force owners of modified vehicles to spend large sums of money to reinstall original components.
· H.B. 3147 would ban useful alterations that provide adequate clearance for on/off road capability and accommodate heavy loads, larger tires, improved suspension and water-fording capability.
· H.B. 3147 would impose a fine of up to $360 per offense for vehicles that exceed the 3 inch clearance requirement.
DONT DELAY! This bill tramples on the rights of 4x4 vehicle enthusiasts in Oregon. Please contact members of the House Committee on Transportation and Economic Development immediately by phone or e-mail to request their opposition to H.B. 3417.
Please e-mail a copy of your letter to Steve McDonald at firstname.lastname@example.com. Also, please forward this Alert to your fellow car enthusiasts. Urge them to join the SAN and help defend the hobby! Thank you for your assistance.

With The Clockwork Dark series drawing to a close, author Bemis has saved the best for last.
Readers are plunged into the action as Buck is captured and comes face to face with the evil Grevol, a.k.a. Gog. At the same time, Ray and Jolie are attempting to find his sister Sally as she desperately seeks their father, hoping he can help complete their task. Other members of their band, including Conker, son of John Henry, are headed to Chicago, the site of the 1893 World's Fair, and an ultimate showdown with Gog, his all-powerful Machine and the Darkness he uses to control those who do his bidding. Bemis continues to connect larger-than-life characters of American folklore to new adventure. As he concludes the series at the point where the country is set to embrace a mechanized modern society, the heroic figures battling the evil Gog are forced to face what might be a losing battle. "And the world ahead, it would change. That was inevitable, just as the Magog had said. But it wasn't inevitable that it would be a world that would turn people into the ashen-faced slaves that Grevol desired. Mankind might still hold on to its humanity."
With a plot as intricate as the Machine at its center and a page-turning pace, this unique, ambitious American fantasy comes to a satisfying end that would please even John Henry. (Steampunk. 9-12)

Hello Friends, Dale Leach, Great-Great Grandson of Sylvester Leach, and Leach Family historian has shared the following story. It was written by Dale in 2007 "based upon gathered information about Sylvester Leach's (1842-1928) life from the eye-wiwtness recollections of family members: Lloyd A. Carr, Esther M. (Starr) Allen,, and Naomi (Lurvey) Blaine." Many thanks to Dale for allowing me to post this story to "The Family File: Leach Family" …….you're in for a treat when you read it.
The Beloved Old Flag
The well-worn flag had always been neatly folded with great pride and reverently kept by the old man in the top drawer of his white-oak, chest o'drawers. Over the years, time had taken its toll as the flag had become somewhat faded and tattered from frequent use. You see: this old gentleman had been the flag bearer for the James Bradley G.A.R. Post no. 194, a Civil War Veteran's organization in Clio, Michigan. Sylvester Leach had always carried this revered national banner, with great dignity, in G.A.R. parades on Decoration Day (now Memorial Day), the Fourth of July, and Veteran's Day. However, sadly, this flag also witnessed the burial ceremonies of camp members who finally expired leaving a dwindling troop of old veterans who had once marched to local cemeteries such as Pine Grove, Forest Lawn, or Gunnell. It was around 1912 that old James Bradley G.A.R. Post, located at 222 E. Vienna Rd. just west of downtown, was closed and disbanded for lack of membership because most of the old veterans were either too age advanced or had passed on. It was also at this time that this flag, that had witnessed so many local parades, ceremonies and burials over the years, was permanently presented to its long-time bearer as a token appreciation. This tattered piece of cloth was later to become Mr. Leach's proudest possession.
This spring day of May in 1928, however, the old flag was being used for a different purpose: it being wrapped about the coffin of the seasoned veteran as if in reluctance to part with the one who had held it so high and proudly for so many years. Many mourners gathered at the gravesite burial ceremony there in Pinegrove Cemetery located in the southern portion of Tuscola County, Michigan, and each possessed vivid memories of this man and hiss well-lived age of 87. Among those present was a small girl of 9 years old whose favorite great grandfather was being laid to rest that day. This child's name was Esther Starr and she had always had a special connection with this old veteran because her parents, Arthur and Lena Starr, had purchased his home, located at the NE corner of Barkley & Birch Run Roads, and cared for him in his old age. Esther remembered him fondly as fun-loving and amiable and well known throughout the local area as "the best clogger around" This little girl of 11 remembered her "Grandpa Leach" as a good natured, man yet one who on occasion could also be stubbornly independent and one that could be downright cantankerous at times when crossed. For example: there was the time when the very amiable old gentleman had taken the family's horse & buggy to one of the local dances held at nearby Buell Lake. It was later, after being gone all night and returning, that Arthur and Lena foolishly attempted to scold the old man for his tardiness when he emphatically responded with ruffed feathers: "Well I'm free, white n' twenty-one and I'll do what I damn well please!" She had witnessed ol' Doc Bishop, who had cared for old man in his last hours, and heard doctors seemingly callous statement after giving her great grandfather a shot to ease the pain: "Well I just gave the ol' cuss a shot so he can slip out easier". How nonchalant and cynical this comment must have seemed to such a young girl. Or another great grandchild of similar age, Elmer Leach, who unexpectedly discovered the lifeless body shortly after death, came running home the short distance up the hill on Barkley Road exclaiming in great horrified amazement to his older brother, Carl, "why is grandpas's face covered up and his feet sticking out from under the sheet?!!". This was also a far cry other times when "Great Grandpa Leach" had played similar tricks on the boys only playing dead under those same sheets, but this time was for real.
Or, among those a bit older in attendance at this burial ceremony, were Lloyd A. Carr, a nephew and local farmer by trade. As a young man Lloyd remembered how his Uncle was well liked locally and also Sylvester's stately team of giant Belgian workhorses were the envy of all around in the local township of Arbela. To Lloyd: this expired man represented countless fond memories of his dear Uncle "Vet" such as the time when this old gentleman, who walked a great deal and often traveled about, came to his farm complaining excitedly that he had misplaced the cloth satchel he always carried: "I lost muh' grip" and can't remember where I left the darn thing!" Or another time: upon seeing his uncle after a long absence, asked him where he had been to which the old man exclaimed: "Oh – I been layin' low lately 'cause I got all loused up!"
As Rev. Stubbs, the officiating minister of local M.E. Church, spoke to the small group standing there at the gravesite and offered a humble prayer to the All-Mighty, the casket was slowly lowered into the soil from whence it came. No one seemed to take notice at first that this beloved and tattered, old flag was not removed and about to be buried with its long time bearer. None the less: there were those that sad day that did agree with what they considered the flag's being "disgraced" and chief among them was certain a grand niece on this brother, Enard Leach's side. As a result of this supposed affront: argument that ensued but it was Lloyd Carr, much loved great grandson, who calmly stepped forward and took control of the ugly situation saying: " leave that flag be and let go to rest with this old soldier that loved it so dearly"

Search and rescue, fire fighting, maintenance and ranger staff are still working, but no new visitors will be allowed.
On today's Insight program, ranger Scott Gediman says the park was cleared out yesterday afternoon.
"There's still a few people for example we're expecting out of the wilderness off of the big walls," he says. "Once we got everybody out by 3, we've got the campgrounds cleared out, we got the hotels cleared out. Everybody was real cooperative -certainly disappointed- but cooperative. Overall it went well."
Entry into the park's campgrounds are closed, though Highway 120 is open to through traffic.
Gediman says 160 of the 800 employees who normally work at the park are still on the job.
Among the casualties of the shutdown: six weddings that were scheduled for this weekend.

Olá, Brasil!
Grand Valley State University's Van Andel Global Trade Center is organizing a trade mission to São Paulo, Brazil, from May 12-17, in partnership with the state's marketing arm, Michigan Economic Development Corp.
The mission will assist Michigan businesses to expand export sales to Brazil — the world's seventh-largest economy — and build new connections with businesses, academia and government.
Brazil has one of the world's largest economies, with high growth rates and strong growth potential. Targeted industries for this trade mission are advanced manufacturing, environmental technology, medical equipment and engineering and construction.
"This is a great time for Michigan businesses to explore global opportunities, especially small businesses," said Sonja Johnson, executive director of the Van Andel Global Trade Center. "We are very excited that eligible companies with less than 500 global employees may be eligible for partial reimbursement for this trade mission as part of the State Trade Export Promotion Program."
The fee for going on the trade mission to Brazil is $3,700 per person, and there is a limit of just one attendee per company.
Participants will receive one-on-one appointments to talk over opportunities with Brazilian businesses and updates from local experts to gain current market insights.
They will also participate in networking events and visits with Michigan companies already established in Brazil, plus seaport and cultural tours.
Each participant will receive translation services for marketing materials and business cards.
Space is limited and the deadline for registration is Feb. 28.
For more information about the trade mission, visit vagtc.org or call (616) 331-6811 to register.

For Spring/Summer '19, Edward Sexton has created a tailored capsule collection that's elegant, luxurious and true to our house style. With the grey days of winter behind us, this season's colour palette is lighter and fresher, with a sophisticated range of sky blue, soft pink and forest green shirting, punctuated by fawn and burnt orange accessories.
Our tie and hanky collection makes use of a mixture of bright silk jacquards featuring graphic paisleys and spots, as well as chic looking abstract weaves and subtle geometric designs. As always, texture is key to the collection, and we've designed a number of Italian three-fold ties in silk-and-linen blend cloths, which add a tactile, relaxed touch to a formal look.
As with last summer, our Hollywood trousers are available in a chic selection of 9oz Italian linen cloths, which drape and breathe beautifully during the warmer months. Classic navy and tobacco are versatile choices, and we're also offering a limited number of pairs in beige and sage green. Wear with everything from a Sexton shirt and double-breasted fresco blazer, to a simple white T-shirt and sneakers. For those travelling to hotter climes, you can even choose to pair your beige or tobacco linen Hollywood tops with matching safari shirts, cut with two utility pockets on the chest and a one-piece version of our signature pointed shirt collar.

Blessed with a surplus of ancient Commodore 1702 monitors and a handful of GameCubes, Personal Computer Museum curator Syd Bolton stacked them all together to form a pleasantly confusing cube of cubes.
After debuting his cube of cubes at a recent Game Night held at his Ontario, Canada museum, Bolton took a little time out of his busy schedule of discovering one of the rarest Atari 2600 cartridges in existence to explain how the project came about and came together. I conceived the "Cube of Cubes" several years ago when the museum started receiving a large number of Commodore 1702 monitors (the kind that were used on the Commodore 64 but are still useful today as small televisions for gaming systems or DVD players).
I estimate we now have over 100 of these monitors. At first, I wanted to do a video wall (still looking for a reasonably priced video controller) but then after using them for a Tetris event in 2008, I had another idea.
For safety reasons we wanted to build a shelving unit that could hold them, but my woodworking engineer told me that it was foolish to try and construct this massive unit (which around 7 feet tall) in one piece and suggested I go back to the drawing board with it in 4 pieces that could be moved and stored with ease. That's exactly what I did.
Using simple, low cost pine wood and a durable paint that was color matched to a GameCube itself in the hardware store, the materials for the unit ended up costing under $250 CAD. After the wood was cut (then routed for the shelf stability) it was primed and then painted twice with the Indigo paint by museum volunteers. The final construction used glue and screws and the units were then touched up to fix blemishes that occurred during construction and "feet" were put on the bottom to protect the unit and the floor it would eventually end up on.
The end result is a rather pretty display of 16 GameCube titles: Star Wars Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron II, Dragon's Lair 3D, Starfox Adventures, I-Ninja, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut
Cubivore, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Mario Cart, Finding Nemo, Burnout, Crazy Taxi, NHL 2003, and — appropriately enough — Namco Museum. The 140 or so visitors to the Game Night party had a blast picking up random controllers and then trying to figure out which game they were playing on the wall.
Syd tells us the installment's modular build could also led itself to hosting eight PlayStations, Nintendo 64s, or any console producing a composite signal.
The real question is why don't i have one of these in my living room yet?

Goalkeeper Rob Green has extended his stay at QPR by signing a new two-year deal with the Premier League club.
The 34-year-old replaced big-money signing Julio Cesar as Harry Redknapp's No. 1 goalkeeper last season and featured in 48 games as the R's secured a top-flight return through the playoffs.
Having previously played in the Premier League with Norwich, West Ham and QPR, Green has plenty of experience to his name and is happy to have re-signed at Loftus Road after his previous contract had expired.
"I'm really pleased to have signed the contract,'' he told QPR's official website.
"The first thing on my mind, after relaxing and enjoying winning promotion, was to get my future sorted, so I'm delighted we've managed to get everything done ahead of pre-season. I feel refreshed and recharged and I'm looking forward to the season ahead.''
Having signed for QPR in 2012, Green found his way into the first-team blocked when then-manager Mark Hughes also concluded a deal to sign Brazil international Cesar from Inter Milan.
But since being installed as Redknapp's regular goalkeeper following relegation in 2013, Green is looking to keep the position heading into the campaign.
"At the start of last season all I was focused on was playing football,'' he added. "Thankfully that happened and we got promoted at the end of it all. This season is very much the same. I want to play week in, week out.
"We want to aim high, but we won't get carried away. We learnt a lot of lessons last time, so we will keep our targets in-house and be fully focused on the season ahead.
"We can't underestimate the difficulties of the Premier League.''
Although QPR are yet to bring in any new faces since beating Derby in the playoff final in May, Green has followed Clint Hill, Armand Traore and Alejandro Faulin in penning new deals as Redknapp looks to put faith in the players who secured promotion.

Seton Hall Games are Exhibit A on New Hand-Checking RulesPosted by Joe Dzuback on November 14th, 2013
Joe Dzuback is an RTC correspondent. He filed this report after Wednesday night's game between Seton Hall and Kent State. On paper the proposed revision to the blocking rule, along with a handful of tweaks to the rules governing legal hand checks and use of the arms by defenders, seemed the best way to reverse the ongoing problem of declining points per game. The Rules Committee reasoned that tolerating more physical contact had given the defender a subtle but impactful bias that contributed to the recent trend of fewer points scored by both teams. By mandating the defender had to be in the defensive position before the ball-handler began his upward motion (as opposed to leaving the ground, as previously enforced), the Rules Committee hoped to give the referees a longer time frame — and therefore a better chance — to make the correct block/charge call. By mandating officials more consistently call hand-check violations, the Rules Committee hoped scorers would have more freedom to create shots and force defenders to work harder to maintain position by moving their feet in front of the ball-handler, rather than using their hands and arms to slow him down.
Depending on the coach, the changes would enhance scoring opportunities and open up the game (e.g., John Calipari — "But we're all wondering whether they will make the same calls in January, February and March that they make in November and December," per Jeff Goodman's October 14 article at ESPN) or throw sand into the overall flow (e.g., Larry Brown — "I think it will be terrible… There's no doubt in my mind that they're trying to do the right thing and their intentions are good, but I don't think this is the solution. This is going to ruin the flow of the game," per an early November ESPN article by Dana O'Neil) and turn the game into a Parade to the Free Throw Line. More scoring? Sure, but those extra points come at a price – longer games with more interruptions. Read the rest of this entry »

Prominent Algerian legendary singer Warda has passed away at the age of 73 after encountering a sudden heart attack in her Cairo home. Family and close contacts to the singer have confirmed the death as well as most Algerian media sources.
This comes as quite a shock, given recent news of the pan-Arab-ess singing giant singing on and on and pulling out all the stops to re-connect with her long-time fans.
According to the internet website MBC.net, close contacts to the singer said her that friends attempted to call her personal cellular phone to inquire whether the news was true and they received confirmation from her family that revealed she died of a heart attack while at home.
It was said that the late singer's - known as the Algerian Rose (Warda Aljazairia)- health had gradually deteriorated after being mired in a number of family disputes along with numerous attacks against her from members of the entertainment world asking her to resign from her singing career to maintain her image.
It is believed that Warda's body will be flown back to Algeria where a proper funeral ceremony will be held.

Sue Unsworth's 'upside down' view
Sue Unsworth's work provides us a wealth of knowledge on governance and institutional change, stemming largely from her 'upside down' view of the conventional reality of the aid world. Here is a quick peek into some of her work – particularly, insights into how donor-approaches should evolve to engage successfully with politics.
Sue's work with David Booth – captured in this paper, Politically smart, locally led development – presents seven case studies of problem-driven approaches that provide important lessons to donors, as well as a clear message that merely using new terminology without actually changing the 'ways of working will not yield results. The authors suggest that chasing 'international best practices' often lead to imagined solutions that do not address the problem at hand.
"…for politically smart, locally led approaches to become the norm, a more radical shift is needed in the way donors conceive development challenges and their role in addressing them. They need to abandon oversimplified concepts of 'ownership' and 'partnership', and unrealistic assumptions about the scope for outsiders to lead transformational change"

Decoys are carved or turned wooden copies of birds, fish, or animals. Native Americans used grasses as the first decoys to lure waterfowl into what seemed their nesting areas before capturing them. The decoy was placed in the water or propped on the shore to lure flying birds to the pond for hunters. Some decoys are handmade; some are commercial products. Today there is a group of artists making modern decoys for display, not for use in a pond.

We have mac and cheese here, too. Yes, vegan. I use a recipe from Jo Stepaniak's "Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook". It's a great way to get winter squash in the diet. It's also very good with a velvety spinach sauce drizzled over the top.

Chile - Vegan mac-n-cheese sounds REALLY good, but I always get freaked out by all the ingredients in the recipe. I'm a lazy cook. The spinach sauce sounds great too. Do you have a favorite recipe for that?
- February 26, 2009 at 7:56 PM
- Chile said...
Well, to make it easier, you could always mix up the dry ingredients in bulk. She actually has a recipe for that: Instant Cheez-it Sauce or something like that.
The spinach sauce is one I came up with. I'll try to post it at some point, but the gist of it is pureed cooked spinach with extra stock, salt, pepper, and nutmeg, if I remember right.

I'm probably more likely to try the spinach since I'm on a whole foods-local diet. I'm going to take a wild guess and say the cheez-it sauce isn't local :)
And one of these days, I'm going to find local noodles (or wheat to make my own). I'm not a big pasta fan, but it's nice on occasion. Or I can just for spaghetti squash season. Mmmm!

You know, I LOVE to cook and the recipes in Uncheese intimidated me a little too. Not to mention, I have never been sent by faux cheeses, so I have just decided that cheese is a thing of the past for me. I just try not to attempt replicating meat and dairy centered meals as I am usually disappointed with the outcome. We made a stroganoff with tofu sour cream a couple of years back, I seriously thought I was going to be ill. Then I made someones "cheezy sauce" and I really learned what BAD tastes like. These, however, are just my humble opinions.
I don't see how you could ever get sick of such simple and yummy meals. I am stopping by the Root Cellar after work to see if they have - wait for it - cabbage and red potatoes. The red potatoes are just something we have to have on hand all the time any way, and all your cabbage gave me a craving. Fried rice and something Mexican with cabbage here we come!
And those berries - I want to reach through my screen and grab 'em. Oh yummy.

True, the nutritional yeast and soymilk are not local. However, the flour is from my CSA, the lemon juice from my friend's neighbor's tree, and the squash puree from my CSA. I'm currently using non-local onion powder but theoretically could dehydrate and powder my own. And the salt is from the Pacific Ocean... :-)
- February 27, 2009 at 1:17 PM
- Heather @ SGF said...
Jennifer - Ooh! Have fun with your root cellar purchases and be sure to post photos :)
Chile - That doesn't sound too bad. I'll keep that in mind and maybe try a little something new when spaghetti squash is in season. Thanks!

Westlake Chiropractor
Offers Alternative Pain Relief Solutions
Our Westlake chiropractor at Advanced Spinal Rehab and Wellness Center is proud to offer experienced and advanced spinal rehabilitation, spinal decompression, physical therapy, massage therapy and gentle chiropractic spinal re-alignment to Westlake area patients including Bay Village, Rocky River, North Olmsted and Fairview Park. Whether you are suffering from an auto accident injury, personal injury, work injury or have chronic back pain, a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, arthritis, headaches or fatigue - we may be able to help.
At Advanced Spinal Rehab and Wellness Center, our Westlake chiropractor, Dr. Michael Darr, has been practicing chiropractic for more than 30 year and is a 3rd generation chiropractor. Dr. Darr has extensive experience in helping patients to heal from all types of painful conditions and injuries. Dr. Darr utilizes state-of-the-art equipment and the most advanced technologies to analyze symptoms and diagnose conditions so that he can begin treatment at the origin of the problem. We treat back pain, herniated discs, whiplash, pinched nerves, muscle spasms, sciatica, headache, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, stiff neck, arthritis, carpal tunnel, fatigue and many other pain causing conditions. Our chiropractic staff are both committed to helping diagnose the root of your pain and treating you as an individual.
In so many cases of accident injury, work-related injuries, or chronic pain it is best to begin treatment as soon as possible to ensure that the injury or pain condition does not escalate. If whiplash or another similar accident injury is left untreated, it can become a chronic condition that will worsen over time. Back pain, neck pain, headaches, shoulder pain and tingling or numbness in the body's extremities are all common accident injuries that are effectively treated through chiropractic care. Regardless if you live in Bay Village, Rocky River, North Olmsted or Fairview Park our Westlake facility is conveniently located near you.
Westlake Chiropractic Clinic Treats Accident Injury Patients with Physical Therapy and Massage
Our Westlake chiropractic clinic offers a blend of treatments to get the very best results for your accident injury or workers compensation related injury. Our treatments are 100% non-invasive, drug free and proven to be safe. We often start with chiropractic spinal adjustments from the chiropractor, which can help re-align any spine or neck vertebrae that may have shifted out of their proper areas during an accident or injury. In addition to traditional chiropractic adjustments, we offer spinal decompression therapy, passive physical therapy, rehabilitative and corrective exercises, therapeutic massages, nutrition counseling, vibration therapy, and kinesio taping.
Physical therapy is often a common component of the treatment plans for our accident and injury patients. Passive physical therapy is aimed at helping patients to recover mobility and functionality. Our physical therapy methods can include electrical stimulation, mobilizing traction, ultrasound, deep heat diathermy, and chi-gong.
Massage is another aspect of our treatment process for conditions like back pain. Therapeutic massage can help to relax strained muscles and increase blood flow to the muscles to improve healing. Additionally, massage can also help to reduce inflammation and thus allow muscles to function as normally as possible again. When the pain involves symptoms like headaches, treatment may be focused on the neck and upper back area since headaches are often the result of a neck vertebrae that is misaligned or a pinched nerve. At Advanced Spinal Rehab and Wellness Center, we offer various types of massage, including deep tissue, sports, stones, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and lymph drainage massages.
Dr. Darr will incorporate chiropractic adjustments, physical therapy, massage, and other natural healing methods to help patients find pain relief and achieve the optimum health. Our focus is on adding years to your life and life to your years with natural, non-invasive healing methods. In addition to our local Westlake clients, we also serve patients from the Bay Village, Rocky River, North Olmsted and Fairview Park communities.

Cleopatra: A 2000-year pop culture reign, Plutarch to Elizabeth Taylor
For someone who's been dead over 2000 years, Cleopatra, the last pharaoh of Egypt, continues to provide artists and writers with a deep well of inspiration.
The latest entry into the canon is Peter Stothard's new book, "Alexandria: The Last Nights of Cleopatra." We'll have a review of this part-memoir, part-history, part work of culture criticism in Sunday's Denver Post Books section.
In the meantime, here are a few highlights from the expansive Cleopatra pop culture canon:
