Many Faces
I'm mentoring Steve and he needs to write
Through a mentoring program with the nonprofit StartOut, I'm working with a firecracker named Steve.
StartOut is the national nonprofit that creates great leaders by empowering LGBTQ entrepreneurs.
I'm telling you this cat Steve is on fire. He's pulling together the biggest deals for a big San Francisco tech company. We meet by phone every two weeks and have never met in person. He's all business and I appreciate that in the exchange. But he is intense.
He's also full of young me-ness, so I know where he's coming from. Having been a young star myself, the world doesn't always welcome you and your big sense of self.
So it was no surprise that he has a nemesis. This asshole takes credit for his work, tries to undermine him and makes it generally unpleasant to work there. Those kind of downer people can really take the wind out of your sails. And you can't always turn those situations around. If you can, your heart may be out of it by then. So, we're agreed that he's moving on.
He's interviewing at all the usual mega-unicorns and they quickly see a talent they could use. He's got this covered. Steve is confident, has the numbers to prove his value and I imagine presents well. You should see his polished LinkedIn profile picture.
And still a Google search on him shows little about his expertise. What will his next advocate find out about him beyond a good interview? Why is he exceptional? He has to change that by writing about what he does.
He's working on a case study on his big win at the company. My challenge for him was to write another story anonymized with more about the process. Why are you the best at this? Break it out into a series of stories, but publish something soon.
I'll talk to him again in a week and a half and I'm hoping to see something online before then.

60 and Gay in Tech
Below is the video and text of a presentation I gave at Tech Inclusion in San Francisco on October 19, 2017
Today is my epic story and some techniques for surviving as a graying, gay person in tech.
I've worked in tech for close to 35 years and alternative newspapers before that.
I was always interested in changing the status quo through media and associated myself with organizations that I thought at least accepted who I was.
When there was discrimination it was often subtle, but thanks to some early activism I was always reactive first.
Sorry mean people.
I survived with a technique I've come to call
"The Humanist + Activist Approach"
Here's how it works and why it's more important than ever today.
- If you haven't noticed… blatant harrassment and discrimination is filling the news cycles.
- We're in a dangerous political environment. Those in power today are turning back the clock on many gains in civil rights. Just yesterday our vile, so called president was joking about lynching gays. Seriously
- This thinking is becoming normalized and will bleed into the workplace and discrimination will become even more OK.
- This may be hard, but before you react, take time to understand the experiences and point of view of the people you interact with. That's the Humanist part.
- You DO have a right to be at the table without discrimination though. so, Don't ever back down.- That's the Activist part.
Humanist Stance
- Some Signs
- Subtle uneasiness. Always can tell that something is off that you can't put your finger on it. This is when understanding that person matters.
- Still, a lot goes unstated. You can almost hear it "He's old and doesn't get it" "Gay people are different" "I'd rather not know about that thing I don't understand" "we don't have anything in common."
- Same thing we see in polarized politics. Nobody is listening or understanding the others outside of their bubbles.
- And many times what is going on doesn't even have anything to do with you. Can you tell the difference?
- Through protege/mentoring relationships, You can get to know each other and find common ground. Especially as it relates to ageism.
Activist Stance
If I look back 40 years, my influences were usually older artists, writers and activists that had been through the Vietnam War resistance. They were my teachers and the classroom was challenging.
An example: I worked for a leftist newspaper collective – much good was done by keeping many bad guys honest and staying defiant. The internal workings to make that happen were as antagonistic as what was being published.
I was also present for some of the early meetings for ActUp. The radical organization that stood up to the AIDS epidemic. The meetings were held in the basement of the gay and lesbian center in Greenwich Village. They were wild and passionate shouting matches to get to the very best way to fight for the attention for an epidemic of gay men dying by the hundreds and was being ignored. As they say, We went through it to get to it.
These experiences illustrated to me how similar tactics could be brought to new challenges.
It established my response to discrimination
To address AIDS we broke all the furniture in the room to be heard.
We challenged the government, the drug companies, the Catholic church. We made everybody uncomfortable to be heard.
We had ZERO tolerance and questioned everything.
At the same time we were emotionally beaten and grieving from the relentless death around us.
And THEN we had to get on with things.
In the middle of all that resistance and mourning, those of us that survived were gathering ourselves and starting our careers with peers that had radically different experiences.
The activist bent stuck for me and was an uncomfortable stance to bring into the workplace. Certainly one that didn't resonate with many in the room who may have been getting away with keeping people marginalized before.
So that's a conflict by definition. Ready to fight for what was right but with a tendency toward empathy and tenderness.
And now a new form of discrimination for me, AGE.
My friend Karen Wickre wrote in Wired Magazine recently.
"The very people who might be affected by age discrimination often don't want to bring it up—especially in Silicon Valley." She got that right.
With something fairly new to me like age discrimination, I can miss these signals and it seems nobody wants to hear it anyway.
I know that there are plenty of signs that our industry is not considering the value that age and experience bring to an organization and often it's not an easy topic to broach.
So let's talk ACTION. If you find yourself losing power due to discrimination. Stop it in it's tracks.
Maya Angelou said "If you let a bird nip at your ear, before you know it your whole head will be gone."
As discrimination incrementally goes unchecked what was questionable before becomes normalized. The toxicity is multiplied.
So Stop it! When you see it. Stop it. You can try first with compassion and grace, but don't back down if that doesn't work.
Understand your boundaries, let them be known. Or … the bird will eat your head.
Let's wrap this up with the following.
Try, try, try to find some common ground with people you work with who come from different experiences and points of view. It provides context and some humanity when observing behaviors and interacting.
From an activist side, Do not kid yourself, the assault on our rights are more aggressive than we've seen in decades. This is becoming the new normal again and requires vigilance in calling it out.
Working in Tech means that we're creating the platforms for the future and with that comes a responsibility. If there is humanity and an adherence to principles in the room it will translate into the products we create.

Moss makes case against WTO accession
Government should not be afraid to tax rich people or companies, Managing Director of Dominion Management Services Ltd. Paul Moss told Guardian Business yesterday, insisting government stay away from joining the World Trade Organization (WTO) and give the country and its citizens an opportunity for more organic growth, instead of more infiltration of foreign entities.
Moss, who was once active in politics and is involved in the financial services industry, which has been a very open sector to foreign entities, said the government must provide a "real vision for the country", and not make it more difficult for Bahamian businesses to operate in their respective sectors by joining the WTO.
"I think that government has taken the position that they will do certain things without the authority of the Bahamian people," said Moss.
He contended that the government should ask the Bahamian people whether or not they want the WTO for their country. He said, so far, the government's approach to the Bahamian people has been "high-handed and condescending".
He also protested the government's decision to appoint Zhivargo Laing as chief negotiator for The Bahamas' accession to the WTO, saying Laing, who was intimately involved in getting The Bahamas' accession started under the Ingraham administration, will not be impartial in his decisions regarding whether or not WTO is good for the country.
According to Moss, Bahamians have not fully grasped what WTO accession means for The Bahamas. He insists it will not be good.
Moss said the government has to begin to fully reap what it can from the financial services sector. He explained that the country cannot continue collecting taxes for other jurisdictions at the behest of international organizations while "not collecting for yourself".
Moss said accession to the WTO would be best left for another generation, when the country has had a chance to grow its economy independent of foreign infiltration and after Bahamians have had a fair chance to fully develop the sectors they have chosen to develop.
He insisted that many professions could become eroded, depending on what sectors are opened up to foreign participation.
Moss wants to see a new tax structure put in place instead of value-added tax, which he said has crippled Bahamians and is "breaking down the family structure".

Here's yet another post where I read the search words people use to find my blog and comment upon them. Lately, I've been getting a rash of hits from people looking to compare LabWare LIMS with StarLIMS. I suspect these people searching are looking to purchase a LIMS and trying to decide between the two products.
First, let me give the usual warning that neither of the companies is a customer of GeoMetrick Enterprises. My next warning is that, on an in-depth basis, I can't compare them. While I'm an expert with the gritty technical details of the LabWare LIMS, I know absolutely nothing about the depths of StarLIMS as I have not implemented it, first-hand.
From a higher-level, I've seen both come through product selection processes I've led for my customers. Both are scalable for use in labs across the enterprise. Both have the features we'd expect from the top products in the market. For example, they both have a certified SAP interface. Both have features specific to pharmaceutical applications (and many others). Both can be used with a web browser. So, for all the features we'd expect from the "big" systems like these, we would find them. With these types of systems, this makes it that much more difficult to compare them because, at a certain level, they have what appear to be all the same important options.
The differences come in other areas. As you create your RFP, you will need to look closely at the lesser features to see how the two compare to those items you want the most. You should check out their services and licensing to see which might best fit with your own needs, or possibly heavily compare your support needs with what each one offers.
And then, there are the dreaded reference checks. Most people don't do them, possibly because it's so hard to get complete and informative answers from the references given. This is the area where you could probably find the differences, but also the area where it's hardest to get that information to come to light.

Let's meet the girls!
Bella (8) – this will be her first National testing, although she did attend the TOPs invitational campin May.
Bog (10)- She's a seasoned pro at this TOPs stuff. This is her third National testing. She's also been to A camp, B camp and was top 3 in physical abilities at the May Invitational Camp. You can also see her featured in the Ontario stop of the Kellogg's Tour!
Izzy (10) – This is Izzy's second time at National testing. She will also be headed to ranch in early September for developmental camp.

Journi (9) – Although she qualified for testing last year, she was unable to attend. This trip will be her first time at the National Team Training Center.
What is TOPs you ask? It stands for Talent Opportunity Program. The girls participate in local tests and are evaluated on strength, flexibility and basic skills. The scores are sent to the National Office and compared against the rest of the country. The top percent of testers are invited to the National Team Training Center for National Testing. National testing involves much more difficult skills, but the same flexibility and strength tests. The girls are judged by the National Staff. The highest ranked girls are invited to the National Team (or A Camp) and the next group of highly ranked girls are invited to B camp. Not everyone makes national testing or camp, it is a huge honor.
PEG is very proud of all the hard work and dedication the TOPs girls put in over the summer. Here's to a great testing in September.

Do the Holidays make you miss a special girlfriend? Are you sad, lonely or just wish you were 'Christmas-ing' with an old friend?
Some people come into our lives & quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts & we are never, ever the same.
Flavia Weedn
We're celebrating 12 Days of Friendship this December as we look at the 'gift of girlfriendship.' Today's gift might not seem like a 'gift' but it is. Sometimes, for a wide variety of reasons, girlfriends are no longer in our lives. We're looking at the not-so-Happy-Holidays – missing our friends.
The holidays can be blue, lonely, sad, even depressing – especially if we're missing friends like my dear friend Dana. (We lost Dana to breast cancer five years ago December 23rd. Here's our tribute to her and Elizabeth Edwards – both great women who fought cancer bravely. Also, these ways we can remember and honor our friends, who are no longer with us.)
Yes, the holidays can be sad, lonely, even painful when we're missing a friend(s) – but at least we had that friend, right? At least they were part of our life for the amount of time we shared and hopefully we have happy memories, learned great life lessons together and celebrated friendship while we were together. At least we have their memories to remind us of them and the times we shared. (I shared some memories of another great girlfriend, Holly and how memories of her still make me smile!)
On this ninth day of celebrating friendship, during this Holiday / Christmas / Hanukkah season, let's look back on the friends who are no longer actively in our lives, and let's say a word of thanks for them – for the joy and laughter they shared, for the ways they changed us and for the sadness of missing them – that we might appreciate the time we have with the wonderful women who are still in our lives and are yet to come!
To Dana and Holly, to the friends we've lost along the way for whatever reason, for the beautiful BFFs who still bless our days … let's feel some girlfriend gratitude. Let's celebrate the friends who leave an impression on our lives. Let's celebrate the way they touched our lives for whatever amount of time we had together. And … let's be the kind of friend you'd love to have!
Check out these 25 Girlfriend Gifts under $25 and SIGN UP for our weekly newsletter and get our FREE eBook '30 Days / 30 Ways to Be a Better Friend' – check it out! Don't forget to make your girlfriends feel special with perfect birthday gifts for women![Tweet "Missing Friends during the Holidays"]

BMW M2- JB4, decat downpipe, BMS intercooler and Remus cat-back
The owner of this BMW M2 came to us for installation of the Burger motorsports N55 JB4 and intercooler as well as our Richter decat downpipe. We had literally just taken delivery of a Remus cat-back the day before which was supposed to be fitted to our M2, but the owner wanted to purchase it instead.
We once again removed the exhaust (after already installing the downpipe) and fitted the Remus cat-back system. The car already sounded fantastic with the decat downpipe, but with the Remus installed it was on another level (video below).
With everything installed we put the car onto the dyno and began testing it with map 1 and map 2 settings.
Power gained: 28.5 bhp
Torque gained:110 nm

Blonde Hairstyles for Black Women
Blonde hairstyles for black women deserve to have as long as the blonde doesn't lose the main characteristic of the women. Up to know, there is an image stating that black women usually have curly hair as their natural hair. In addition, they like to cut their hair shortly. How if they have blonde hair color? Does it mean that they follow the western trend? Do they banish their own characteristic as black women? Actually, it is not. Fashion is belonging to everyone, not only for certain people. No matter what color of skin you have, you can have blonde hairstyles.
If you are not quite sure that blonde hair color is good for you, you can try to have brown blonde hairstyle in advance. It can be the first step to know whether you have better look with the blonde or not. Brown blonde hair color is considered as not extreme blonde. Compared to other blonde hairstyles for black women, this brown blonde hair color doesn't too contrast with the skin color. If you think that blonde is great or even better than other color, you can try another type of blonde like platinum.
Blonde Hairstyles for Black Women Ideas
In terms of color, you have an answer. How about hairstyle? Do you need to have pixie, medium, or long hairstyle? Actually, it is based on your preference and personality. Beyonce can be a good example. She has long blonde ponytail hairstyle. However, she dyed her hair with dark blonde hair color. Sometimes, she appears in the public with blonde and black lowlights. If you are still young, it is good to try extreme blonde like pairing platinum with black. However, if you are mature or even career woman, you need to pick calmer blonde. For the hairstyle, you need to choose formal blonde hairstyles for black women.

Introduction|Intro|Background} Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
Within this Market Hero review, I'm going to reveal some email advertising secrets which are so great, you are going to want to crawl buck-naked across broken glass simply to find them. Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
But first, I want to say"thank you" to Alex Becker, the founder of Market Hero.
I began watching Alex Becker's YouTube movies back in 2016. He taught me a lot of stuff regarding entrepreneurship and the best way to conduct a Shopify shop.
It was right around the time that Alex published his book, The 10 Pillars of Household: Mind-Sets of The World's Richest People. I got that book once I saw it and I jumped to emphasize it and mark it up. I might move re-read it as soon as I finish this.
Actually, Market Hero is not even his only multi-million dollar company. He also founded the SEO software development firm Source Wave and today he's running a supplement manufacturer . He's also got a couple of courses out there in the market teaching people to grow their lists and market more.
The dude is a freaking machine. My hat off to you, Alex.
Sign up for the free trial : Market Hero
What's Market Hero?
Anyway, Market Hero is one of the best email Since it focuses on in-depth revenue metrics autoresponders available on the market today and it is so much better than its rivals.
I've used a lot of email autoresponder software over the years, including MadMimi and Drip. Drip has been my favorite up before I started using Market Hero. Drip allows you tag your readers, like monitor your open rates and to perform lots of stuff.
But if you're anything like me, as you take care of open prices and click-through rates, what matters most is SALES. Sales are the lifeblood of your business and sales is what places hard cash into your pocket. Market Hero makes it possible to track sales, plain and simple.
Market Hero Support
While I did not have to use Market Hero support that They return to me pretty fast much since everything is, the few times that I did reach them out. Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
The support isn't great to the point where they supply you with detailed step-by-step videos and also hold your hand through each step of the way, but it isn't terrible. In any case, if you want that degree of hand-holding and coddling, perhaps Market Hero isn't for you.
Market Hero has English-speaking support team available to respond to your questions through live chat for free. You don't need to be a part of any special plan or package that is upgraded to possess priority support, such as some unscrupulous firms do. You just log in and begin chatting.
Could Market Hero Truly 4X Your Enterprise?
On Market Hero's homepage, one of those headings You will see states,"4X Your Email Business With Unequaled Delivery and Revenue Metrics". This immediately set off my B.S. detector because I know how difficult it's to 4X an email arrangement, particularly if you're any good at everything you are doing.
However, Market Hero offers a free trial so I figured I would sign up and see whether it was any good. I guessed that I only need a little increase in sales for Market Hero to cover itself and if it did 4X my business, I would be flying high.
Now, in the interest of full disclosure I really do want to inform you Market Hero has NOT increased my earnings 4X (yet), but I am getting more earnings than before and Market Hero IS paying for itself. Easily, actually. I was doing well and had my own game tight, so that I knew a 4X increase could be rough.
But in case you are brand new to email marketing or in case you've got a smaller internet company, Market Hero could probably 4X your earnings. Here's the way:
It monitors your customers' lifetime value.
I know I already mentioned this, but the key to Market Hero is how it keeps your customers' lifetime value (LTV) in front of you constantly and it changes as you send emails out and tweak your own autoresponder. Once you understand your customer value, you can literally"buy" customers. What Market Hero does is actively each conversion for every guide on your listing and track every sale. It gives you the stats you need to cultivate your business and then averages together everything.
If you're to do this manually, you'd most likely have to go through different softwares, various spreadsheets, and go back through your prior earnings. You would have to crunch a great deal of amounts which you don't have anymore. Market Hero solves this problem better than anyone else on the market.
You're able to segment using tags.
Sign up for the free trial here: Market Hero
I understand that you're probably thinking,"Tags? Okay… big deal." But the way that Market Hero allows you to use tags is much better. Here's why…
Let us say that I am running two different campaigns for the identical audience. Anyone who opts-in to the first campaign will be tagged as"A" and anybody who opts-in into the next campaign will be labeled as"B".
I will go into Market Hero and filter out all of the"B" opt-ins and find out how much they're worth compared to"A" opt-ins. When I find out that the"B" opt-ins are earning more money, I know that I should be pouring more ad dollars into advertising the"B" opt-in. Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
Should you do this again and again, you can create a powerful business because you'll constantly be split-testing to determine which kinds of individuals are worth more to your business.
And getting this up and running will be super-easy too. All you need to do is choose the pixel that Market Hero provides you and place it in the areas that you would like to track. From there, Market Hero will keep tabs on all your clients, sales, conversions, etc., to give you the data which you need to cultivate your business.
You're able to integrate with a lot of other services.
Inside Market Hero, there's a button called"integrations" that – you guessed it helps you incorporate with matters like ClickFunnels, SamCart, Shopify, Leadpages, Zapier, and much more.
I believe this is a smart move by Alex Becker since it shows he understands his market. He knows that the people who are seriously interested in making money on the internet are using things and he would like to make sure that his software integrates.
My sole complaint is that a lot of the applications I use, such as OptinMonster and Thrive Themes has not yet been put in the"integrations" tab. That does not mean that you CAN'T integrate them, because you can (you utilize Zapier to make them talk to each other) but it is not quite as easy as something like ClickFunnels or even Shopify.
Speaking of Shopify…
How Is This Different From Other Autoresponders?
The best way for me is of The other email autoresponders were built for email marketers. Their thinking has its own limits and that I send emails although I have nothing against marketers that are email. Market Hero was constructed BY a business owner FOR company owners.
Market Hero differs because it provides you with a bunch of different approaches to assist you monitor ROI and generate more profit from the emails.
By way of instance, among the coolest features is the fact that it shows you just how much each lead is worth. Imagine logging into your email autoresponder and viewing that every guide is worth $6.87 for you. Meaning you could go out and"buy" email addresses to make money. Everything you do is you buy paid traffic from Google, Facebook, etc. and send traffic to a opt-in page. You have a small business, if you can get a successful than it's worth. Simply wash and repeat as many times as possible.
Additionally, it also allows you to segment your list in far deeper ways compared to other autoresponder services out there. Like I said, I used Drip and they have some good segmentation tools in the ability to apply tags to your leads, but it's small potatoes compared to Market Hero. I really don't need to give any of Market Hero's proprietary information, but let us just say that you will most likely be impressed by the segmentation ability. Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
Is Market Hero a Scam?
From what I've seen, certainly not. I think that At this time, by being a scam artist, Alex Becker has to lose. He's running a variety of businesses and he is smart enough to realize that when he tarnished his reputation, he'd be screwed.
From what I have seen, people have complained about his refund policy. However, these people are typically the ones who have utilized Market Hero for weeks and attempt to get their money back. These are the scammers. You're scum if you aren't inclined to cover for a service that may enhance your business and your life. Plain and simple.
Market Hero's free trial offer is really straightforward. It says that if you cancel within 14 days you won't be charged anything.
Rest assured, gentle reader. Market Hero is legit.
If You've Shopify (Or Any Online Business…)
When I started composing this Market Hero review, I Was worried that it was going to lean a bit too much. That is why I wish to stress this Market Hero will assist you in ANY online business, not Shopify.
On his YouTube channel, Alex has published a lot of different videos about Shopify. Once you get past the clickbait-style titles, you find that he provides a lot of information about the best way to earn money. Part of this reason he does this is because he wants to get people to test out Market Hero because he understands it can help them with their Shopify business.
For example, Market Hero lets you create abandoned cart sequences. When someone starts the checkout procedure in Shopify (by entering their email) but doesn't complete it, that gets tracked in Market Hero. From there, you get them back to finish their purchase and can follow up with that person.
The ability to make these abandoned cart strings is only one of the ways that you can make Market Hero literally cover itself. Let us do some math…
based on the analysis which you read, the ordinary cart abandonment rate for an online shop is generally somewhere in the area of 70-80 percent. Are there individuals with lower abandonment rates? Sure, but this is the typical.
Imagine that you have 100 people go through your checkout process and 80 of those individuals abandon your cart. This means you have 80 non-customers and 20 customers. Imagine if a cart retrieval sequence only got a mere 10% of this non-customers to buy?
That will get you an extra 8 customers. Which means that you would literally increase your earnings 40%! (Because 8 additional sales is 40 percent of the 20 earnings you had.)
In the event that you boosted your sales 40 percent, would that justify the investment in Market Hero? But that is not all…
Market Hero also lets you make upsell sequences. Could you create such sequences with other autoresponder softwares? Yes, you can. It's nowhere near as fluid and it will not give you that crucial lifetime customer value, although I'm completely transparent about that. Php Autoresponder And Email Follow Up System
The motive Market Hero is so powerful is because you can use tags and track LTV. When you link Market Hero into Shopify, it starts tracking immediately. Buy tags are applied that show.
Imagine you have a Shopify shop selling print-on-demand dog shirts. It'd be silly to try and market Golden Retriever stuff to this person if a person purchased a pug shirt? But that is since they don't have the right information in front of them exactly what a lot of online entrepreneurs are doing. Because Market Hero enables you to determine what the person bought, you can focus on selling just pug-related stuff to your pug clients.
You can totally geek out with this stuff. You as complicated can get as detailed as you like. In my business, I use it to segment the topics that financial advisors are interested in. I don't want to bombard them because they would be irrelevant Since I market products that help advisors GET clients and let them KEEP clients, if someone is more interested in KEEPING customers. That individual would finally unsubscribe.
Oh, and in case you're interested, here is a video of Alex Becker showing you ways to raise your Shopify revenue 300 percent with Market Hero. Keep in mind the Market Hero can be used with ANY online business, not Shopify.
Market Hero is an email software that is Wonderful because It is built for those who are attempting to earn money on the internet. If you haven't completed So go over there, import your list and take advantage of this free trial.
You can't afford to not know your numbers. That's like Driving blind. If you don't understand your numbers, you are leaving a tremendous Amount of money on the table. Imagine how much more money you could make if you Knew precisely what every lead was worth. How would your own decisions alter? How would that alter your life?

One of the big unveils we expected from Google's developer conference this year was one more attempt at conquering the living room. Android TV is coming later this year, but a handful of developers at the conference were offered a developer kit to explore this new experience. It's called the Android TV Developer Kit, or ADT-1 and while you'll never be able to buy one it makes a compelling case for what we can expect from Google's partners this Fall.
The first thing you'll notice about this kit is the striking resemblance to the Amazon Fire TV. The kit includes a black slab with ports on the back and a wireless controller that takes a pair of AA batteries for power, just like Amazon's unit. The top of Google's kit is a flat glossy surface, while the bottom has a matte textured look to it. There's an LED stripe to signal power that will glow from under the device in a spark of clever design, and that's just about all you'll ever see this box do without a television.
The ports on the back include Ethernet, HDMI, USB, and a special developer cable that offers USB for debugging as well as power for the device. It's interesting that Google is encouraging USB debugging where Amazon is doing all of their debugging wirelessly, but that may just be due to the state of this unfinished platform.
The Android TV controller is a simple gamepad, and is expected to be the primary input device for Android TV if you aren't using a smartphone or smartwatch. The controller vaguely resembles an Xbox 360 controller with PlayStation's DualShock joystick layout. The three buttons across the center of the device line up with the new navigation panel for Android L, which is to be expected given that this platform is set to launch alongside L. It's a simple Bluetooth gamepad, but as we saw during the keynote yesterday you can also use a generic wired gamepad if you choose.
We'll be spending more time with Android TV and all of the goodies that come with it soon, but as first impressions go it looks like Google is sending the right message by offering up a slim, sleek box with simple controls as a baseline for this platform. As long as other manufacturers follow suit and are competitive on pricing, Android TV could very well succeed where its predecessors have failed so miserably before.

The SPCA arrived at the GuZoo Animal Farm in Three Hills, Alta. Monday after animal lovers targeted GuZoo in a social media blitz alleging some animals were in distress. The government now says it will launch its own comprehensive review into the farm.
Several pictures posted on the CTV Facebook page sparked an outcry from our viewers to help what some say are animals in distress. Two SPCA officials on the run trying to catch a goat are featured in one of the pictures on a Facebook campaign to close GuZoo.
We are going to have a veterinarian look at that goat…it will be up to the vet to give us a report," said Ken Dean with the SPCA.
The SPCA arrived at GuZoo about a day after the pictures went viral. The owner of GuZoo says the pictures can be explained.
"There's nothing to defend. This is what I'm doing. Is it wrong or right? Well, if it's wrong…you look at these animals and they're all healthy, so, what's wrong with that?" said owner Lynn Gustafson.
Gustafson has been in charge of the zoo for more than 20 years. He told CTV News dealing with animal activists and people who he claims don't understand is part of the job.
When CTV cameras showed up at the zoo Monday, the animals appeared to be healthy. But a very different visual than the pictures posted online by Nick Burgess, a self-proclaimed animal lover, but not an activist.
"You can't take care of them, you shouldn't have them. It's a matter of treating them fairly and not exceeding what you can do as a human," he said.
Burgess says he felt compelled to shed light on what he refers to as a "bad situation."
"Carcasses piled upon carcasses. Just endless, endless decay in the cages. Rusted metals, exposures to many things these animals should never have to deal with for sure."
Gustafson says carnivores eat meat in his zoo — the same as "city zoos". He says he just doesn't fee them behind closed doors.
The SPCA will not say what or if any action will be taken. But officials admitted there have been complaints.
"A very large number of complaints came in today," said Dean.
Gustafson says if he is forced to give up his animals, they will never go anywhere else.
"That lion is worth $10,000 to taxidermy, and if that's what these people want — that's what they'll get," he said.
All provincial zoo licences are up for renewal next month. Gustafson says an inspection is expected at his zoo by the end of the week.
The animal carcasses are given to GuZoo by a local veterinarian and Alberta Highway Services. Alberta Sustainable Resource Development told CTV News a review of GuZoo is underway and concerns will be identified and appropriate action will be taken.

It was three years before they finally revoked his permits.

A context based data sanity checking algorithm and its implementation
Lahouar, Saher
MetadataShow full item record
In this dissertation, we present a cost-effective, neural network-based technique for data sanity checking and small system parameter monitoring which utilizes the contextual information in which data is collected to avoid the need for multiple metering. Multiple metering is not always a feasible nor an optimal solution to the problem. In an environment where it is necessary to monitor a large number of different physical variables, the mere installation and maintenance of multiple metering equipment can prove to be very costly. Moreover, multiple measurements of the same quantity result in a phenomenon known as data explosion. Context-based sensoyvalidation is achieved through cross sensor redundancy, which is not to be confused with metering redundancy. Neural networks are used to model the relationships among the various parameters and to provide context-based estimates which help in identifying sensor (versus system) malfunction. Slow tracking of the relationships among the parameters as they change over time is made possible through on-line training of the neural networks on the most recent data. This helps to account for the dependency of the relationships among system parameters on the range of external variables such as ambient temperature. A prototypical system titled DASANEX is implemented to illustrate the validity of the technique. The system is used to monitor and filter real-time transformer and ambient temperature data. A proof-of-concept is established using field data from the city of Martinsville Electric Department. Results prove the superior ability of the technique to identify sensor malfunction and to provide real-time adequate replacement values during short downtimes of the sensors even when some sensor data are missing or contaminated.

Four for the home office, four for the office. Can't say fairer than that.
Printers are like buses, they never come one at a time. Other than that printers are nothing like buses at all. Buses are red, have wheels, take you places, smell of old people… Anyway, HP has eight new printers.
Now, there is only so much specification repetition and printer photo editing I can take so let's approach these in batches. In the left corner, weighing in an at some utterly irrelevant combined weight we have the LaserJet 1018 printer (top) and OfficeJet 4315, 4355 and 6310 All-In-Ones collectively known as the home office range.
Retailing for £79.99, £84.99, £99.99 and £169.99 respectively, the most affordable of the bunch is the only dedicated laser with the remaining trio mixing colour inkjets with fax, scan and copy facilities. The 6310 throws integrated Ethernet into the mix to justify its higher tag. We'd give you more details, but at this point HP hasn't provided any.
Making grimacing expressions in the right corner and also weighing in at some utterly irrelevant combined weight we have the ColourLaserJet 1600 (£199 – above), 2605 (£259), 5200 (£1,149) and Jetdirect 510x External Print Server (£275). This tetralogy are bigger guns with the three printers featuring 12ppm speeds for colour pages and automatic two sided printing. The 5200 can handle A3 while the Print Server is capable of connecting up to three printers with a parallel port to a network.
Inky trails have already been left by these octuplets showing where they merrily marched into retail stores.

Last year Pokemon Trainers all over the world delved into the tropical adventures of Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, experiencing the wonderful new story and the island trials. Well, it is time for a new story, once again set in the Alola Region, where dark, ominous forces threaten the safety of everyone and secrets of the Legendary Pokemon Necrozma will be at its heart.
With the latest Pokemon adventure in Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon mere months away, more details have emerged about what trainers can expect when traipsing around the islands. The Island Trials are making a return, where Trainers must complete certain puzzles or objectives, to draw out a powerful Totem Pokemon they must defeat. The Island Trials take the traditional nature of the Alolan environment and shake up the older Pokemon Gym style progression.
While some of the Trials may be similar in PokemonUltraSun and Pokemon UltraMoon, one Trial Captain who didn't really get a fair go in the previous game is stepping up. The next instalment will feature a brand new and exciting Trial from Mina, the really chill artist type. We had to wait a lot longer for this Trial so hopefully, it will be worth it.
Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon will also feature a new minigame/travel feature in the form of Mantine surfing, which will see Trainers utilise impressive balance as they ride on the backs of the smug looking Manta rays.
Using Mantine, Trainers will be able to surf between the different islands, while completing tricks and rolls on the big ways to earn the highest score possible. There would definitely be a reward for getting the highest possible score. Yay for mini-events.
More Pokemon have decided to catch the tropical rays of the Alola region with over 400 new Pokemon to find, capture and train in order to become the very best, that no one ever was. These include the adorable Zorua who has been a favourite of mine ever since it was first revealed all those years ago. Not to mention, a special Dusk Lycanroc is available for those Trainers who wish to pre-order the game.
Pokemon UltraSun and PokemonUltraMoon will be arriving on November 17th, 2017 and will definitely be a great new adventure for Trainers to take on.

This is Me with my Life In The Midwest quilt. I was very proud to have it hang in the show. It was in the Bed Quilts Machine Quilted category. It was fun to hear folks talk about it as they looked. I enjoyed telling some about the hidden meanings in the quilt for me...the corn, soybeans, wheat, etc. if you have not read about it, you can do so HERE, HERE and HERE. Do you see the little hidden gems I just mentioned that are a bit hard to find in any of the pictures in those links ? They are on the vines. This quilt is my favorite. I love hexies, I love appliqué and I love my hubs...all things that make this quilt special to me!
I will post a few from the Des Moines Area Quilters Guild portion tomorrow...more pretties to come!
Take care,

The interview date is set. Tuesday, July 3 @ 3:00 p.m. in the Big Apple. Nice excuse for a train ride.

The interview date is set. Tuesday, July 3 @ 3:00 p.m. in the Big Apple. Nice excuse for a train ride.

What part of Nelson Mandela's story do you find inspiring?
Nelson Mandela could very well have said that the Afrikaners were the enemy and he would not speak their language. Instead he choose to see them as fellow humans. I know the people I will be living with are not the enemy but westerners can bring a feeling of superiority when they travel overseas. I plan to bring Mandela's spirit friendship and openness when I am overseas.
I love the quote about speaking to someone in his language. When I was in Paris on matter how badly I mangled the French or stumbled for the words I felt that the people responded to my attempt to speak to them in their language. And in return I responded with a smile when the owner of a small caves spoke to my daughter and I in English or the taxi driver said "I speak English".
What is the value of learning a foreign language?
Learning a new language helps you to learn the culture. The words of a culture teach you what is important to the culture. Although the story about Inuits having 100 or 200 or 300 words for snow may be an myth, they certainly have more words for snow than we do. That says snow is important to them. When we lived in Mississippi my husband, at the time, said to someone "It smells like snow". That phrase was totally foreign to the person from MS but any New Englander would know immediately what my ex meant, that snow was on the way. And it did snow that evening. You can't know a culture without knowing it's language.
I don't think you can become part of the culture without know the language. You miss so much when you don't speak the language of the culture you are living in. Part of my Peace Corps experience will be to immerse myself in the culture and I feel I can hardly do that without knowing the language.
How do you feel about learning and using a foreign language as a Peace Corps Volunteer?
It will be a fun challenge. I have always loved languages and would love to go somewhere and immerse myself in a new language. In fact I was slightly disappointed when people in France were so willing to talk English. I can imagine my new neighbors and myself laughing at my gaffs and baby steps at speaking in a new language but I can also imagine becoming fluent and truly having a second language.
If I had my choice I'd choose French because of my High School background and because I love the language. However I am probably do not have that much of an advantage with my HS French nor because I listened to two drive and learn programs before I went to Paris!
Language will be another part of this amazing journey I hope to take.
June 23, 2007 at 4:57 pm (application, learning language, Nelson Mandela, new culture, Peace Corps, Pre-acceptance, Travel, waiting)
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." – On Nelson Mandela and Learning Afrikaans
Well, Nelson was very serious about… learning to understand the Afrikaner… [I]n his mind… the Afrikaner was an African… [W]hatever solution there was going to be on the political issues was going to involve Afrikaans people. They… were part and parcel of the land… [T]hey had grown up and… had a history in the country, which [Nelson] wanted to understand. [He] put a lot of work and effort in learning to speak Afrikaans and to use it… He had absolutely no qualms about greeting people in Afrikaans and about trying his Afrikaans out on the warders. [Nelson] wanted to really get to know Afrikaners, as part of the people who belonged to the country.
Now that you've learned about Nelson Mandela's motivations for language learning, your next step is to process your own thoughts about the subject.
From Peace Corps training materials.

I just may miss professional conferences. The hard dorm room beds, the college food ah the nostalgia. But really it's great to hear what others are doing and to share what I am doing. It's energizing and inspiring. This may be my last professional library conference in two plus years or more, so I am enjoying every minute of it. Meeting my colleagues from the Northeast. Sharing our ILS system woes and some of our library services triumphs. So in homage to all my fellow librarian conference attendee I'll post this video from YouTube.
March of the Librarians.
off to lunch.

I feel like I am in limbo waiting for my first communication from the Peace Corps. They are sending a letter with information to track the progress of my application via Internet. Delayed gratification is great if I am the one delaying the gratification but waiting without knowing when the answer will come is tough. Thank goodness there is so much to do and i can keep busy with work, eBay and the scrapbook for my granddaughter that I do not think about the application all the time.
Promise when I know something you will all know something!

I really feel like such a ham for asking this...Usually I am the over achiever, when I sign up to do something, I am usually done and waiting for others to get their part done...
I hope that some one will be able to help me out.
Shauna, You are very industrious...the book calls for 4 lights and 4 darks...I was told by the girls who can convert metric that fat quarters would do fine for the patchwork around the stitcheries so that is what I bought...a total of 8. If you want to go ahead and purchase the borders at the same time, perhaps someone else can help you there...I will wait until my top is together to get mine.
The stitcheries are about 4.5 inches square and there are 12 so you can see how much you need for them.
I hope this helps.
Mama Bear
I don't have my fabrics yet with the exception of a cream fabric for the stitchery blocks, I just cut them to 6 inches square to allow me to trim them back to size after the stitchery is completed.
Thank you so much for your help....So I will get at least 8 fat quarters for this and some muslin for 6" square and able to do 12 of them.
I am so glad that you have helped me. Now I feel confident to get my material on the 2nd.
sounds like your sorted.......email me if you have any questions Shauna

Step two in making something happen is to set a date. I am half way there. It will happen in May 2011. The exact date is yet to be determined, but it will be two weeks before or one week after Eurovision in Germany, May 14th. At the moment of writing, it is more likely to be one week after Eurovision.
Step three is to hold myself accountable for going through with this. This is achieved by telling everyone about it, mark my work calendar, blog about it (this blog) and do something every day (well, at least every week) to get closer to the goal. And after all, since I already set a day in step two, and everyone knows about this date, I am already accountable.
Step four is figuring out where to stay, how much it costs, and make sure I have finances to cover the trip before it begins. I am open for sponsorships if only I find out why someone should want to sponsor me.
Assuming a schedule where I start riding the morning of May 21st, the link to the countdown is http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?day=21&month=5&year=2011&hour=10&min=00&sec=00&p0=195

Review: The Order 1886 Is Inoffensively Fun, But Amounts To Little
The Order 1886 has been under a lot of scrutiny despite not being as hyped or marketed as other triple A releases. Ready at Dawn has kept things close to the chest. Did it leave the game open to surprise us, or just mask the fact that there wasn't much to show?
Quick Rating
- Worth The Time?Yes, if you've managed your expectations and are excited for it, but not if you're expecting the next big thing.
- Things LovedIt's one of the most beautiful games you'll ever see; its technical performance is exceptional; the action is wonderfully visceral; some of its cinematic set pieces and transitions into gameplay are brilliantly pulled off; the setting and world has a lot of room for expansion; the audio and soundtrack are both excellent.
- Things HatedIt misses far too many opportunities; the story feels shallow despite the rich backstory; it's massively inconclusive; melee combat is a disappointment; the setting is underused; it feels restrictive; gameplay is often low-key.
- RecommendationThe Order 1886 will do the trick for those who don't expect too much and are happy with relatively little. It's a decent offering, but one you shouldn't get at full price if you're looking for an Uncharted or The Last Of Us. It will cater to its enthusiasts provided their expectations are kept in check, and in that case you won't regret playing it.
- Name: The Order: 1886
- Genre: Third Person Shooter
- Players: 1
- Multiplayer: N/A
- Platforms: PS4
- Developer: Ready at Dawn, SCE Santa Monica
- Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment
- Price: $60 (R759)
- Reviewed On: PS4
The Order 1886 is Ready at Dawn's first attempt at making it big on the grand stage, backed by the experienced SCE Santa Monica Studio. It's been a peculiar journey to its release, with The Order barely having a fraction of the hype and promotional marketing you'd expect from the usual big triple A releases. Weirder still is that the initial footage for the game was rather dull and unremarkable, yet things only picked up a month before release. It was a surprisingly low-key game, with Ready at Dawn keeping things pretty close to the chest. While that could have either lead to pleasant surprise or the reality that there just wasn't much to show, we think the final result is quite indicative of its level of marketing hype. It's a low-key game, to tell the truth, and is content to just show up, do its thing and walk off the stage without resulting in a standing ovation or causing a riot. It hasn't done anything drastically wrong, but the final product certainly isn't the next big thing for Sony's black box.
Evidence of its desire to not make too big a deal of itself is frequently shown in its story. The game is rooted in alternate history London — a remarkable choice of setting — where an old order of knights exists to keep people safe from half-breed monsters. Their secret is the Black Water elixir that can heal all wounds and extend their lifespans to centuries. You'll take on the role of Sir Galahad as he journeys through the kind of narrative setup we've seen many times before, with the proud order obviously having some dark secrets and its resistance not actually being so bad. The room for originality exists with the setting, although it's grossly underused. In the sense that the game has a rich backstory, but a shallow plot that barely even explores any of it. The half-breeds are interesting, but not really explored or interacted with past some fights. And it's more revealing in the way you'll not get to see or breathe in the world, due to such a constrained focus. It's just sort of there.
The story itself is serviceable, but could have been really good if its genuinely smart ideas were expanded or focused on. It's almost as though it makes meek attempts at pushing out of its comfort zone, but quietly sinks back into it out of fear of standing out. It also suffers from nuances such as cliched dialogue, predictability and starting the narrative in the future for no reason other than to artificially create intrigue and unintentionally just tell you who won't die in the story. All of that could have been forgiven if it wasn't for the fact that the game just barely uses much of its rich back story or the setting or even its own strongest elements, such as the half-breeds. More so it's tragically inconclusive despite good ideas and interesting revelations toward the end. The Order 1886 could have been much more than a serviceable story, but it fails to aspire to much more than that. Hell, it could have gone on for five hours longer, but ends so abruptly you'll be damn surprised.

The game benefits most from its setting with the gorgeous art direction. The Order 1886 honestly is one of the most beautiful games you could play. It's jaw-dropping most of the time, but we loved how subtle it is with that fact. The game never tries to vomit its visual prowess or spectacle all over your face, instead focusing on its smooth cinematic transitions between gameplay and cutscenes which happen so fluidly and brilliantly that sometimes you may not even know you actually regained control over your character. It's incredible as a cinematic experience and in the way it can flow between gameplay and cutscene with the kind of grace that makes them not feel like separate entities. The Order 1886 is definitely raising the bar right now as a seamless visual and cinematic spectacle.
Perhaps what's more impressive than that is how absolutely impeccable the game is in its performance. When you consider that today even massive budget games like Assassin's Creed Unity can run like complete shit, it's a pleasant (if not a little sad) surprise that The Order 1886 is a beast of a game. In my entire playthrough — which spanned around seven or eight hours — I encountered a single visual bug and one insignificant instance of frame rate dip during a massive fight with lots going on. That's to say the game doesn't just look ridiculously good, but plays that way too. Even loading times are non-existent, never breaking up gameplay. Fair enough graphics don't make a game, but any sane person would argue that even an amazing game can be reduced to a mess if it's technically inept. For that, Ready at Dawn can be proud of their achievements here.
However it's in the gameplay where The Order 1886 misses most of its opportunities and makes its mistakes, over and above the unambitious story. It can be strange at times, as it often feels as though Ready at Dawn were switching back and forth between creating their own game and trying to tick all the boxes of what you'd expect in a modern action title. The perfect illustration of this is in how you'll engage in a boss battle with a Lycan, which is absolutely awesome, and use unique weaponry like an arc gun or thermite rifle, but then you'll also be a party to forced stealth sections with unimpressive mechanics, mundane hacking and lockpicking activities and minor just-because platforming. It's another case of a game just lacking the confidence to be completely itself and wanting to appease all the players it possibly can. Fortunately nothing ever feels bad to play in The Order 1886, as all of its mechanics are functional enough to work without any frustration, but it doesn't really excel at much of what it does or build on the few unique scenarios and encounters it offers.
We've seen a bit of a deal made out of its quick-time events, but we didn't find them too upsetting. They're reminiscent of Heavy Rain in their fluidity, and they mostly serve to compliment the cinematic feel. They never angered us or made the mistake of arriving unexpectedly, which probably would have caused us to throw a controller through the screen. The real tragedy is in missed opportunity. A telling example of this is in how you only ever fight small lycans, apart from once early on where you engage in a fantastic boss battle with an elder, and sadly that's the extent of the usage of the half-breeds. Despite the existence of vampires in the game, you never fight one. The final boss fight is basically a repeat of that initial elder encounter. That is to say the game does have standout moments and ideas to differentiate itself from its competitors, but fails to explore them. You're constantly waiting for more boss battles or unique encounters, but they never come as the game remains trapped in familiarity.
The gunplay is as you'd expect, with very competent cover and shooting mechanics. The great part is how stunningly visceral it feels thanks to the amazing audio and visual experience and fantastic environmental destructibility. It's also helped by a small variety of unique weaponry such as with the earlier mentioned arc gun, which can blow someone's head clean off with a bolt of electricity, and the thermite rifle, which is a really effective human cooking tool. As is the story with most of the game, gunplay does the job and not a whole lot more than that. One area of disappointment is the melee combat because while it's animated very well, especially contextually, it amounts to nothing more than a single button press for an instant kill. The game would have benefited much more from a system like that of Uncharted or The Last Of Us, which both have a great feel, offer good brutal feedback for the player and add more freedom to the gameplay, but at present it severely lacks variety.
What may divide players' enjoyment of The Order 1886 is in how restrictive it can feel due to its emphasis on its cinematic experience. You'll only draw your gun when you enter a combat scenario, you'll only go into stealth mode when the game forces it on you, and you'll only make use of platforming when the game wants you to. Weirdly it's almost like an on-rails experience in a sense. You're either going to love the smoothness of the cinematic experience and appreciate how effortlessly and fluidly the game moves from scene to scene, or you're going to find it to be an unremarkable bore. Neither of those perspectives would make you wrong, since we can understand either. In that way it's easier to stomach how The Order 1886 is currently making the rounds as a love-hate game, and there'll be plenty of debates on that front. Which is strange since there aren't going to be a whole lot of talking points or memorable moments from the actual game, thanks to its lack of ambition.
In the end the extent to which The Order 1886 will satisfy you depends largely on how you see its cinematic experience and how much you're expecting out of it. In truth it's an average gameplay experience elevated by its incredible visuals, astounding technical achievements and at times brilliant execution of its cinematic experience. Beneath all the beauty however it's a game that's competent in its mechanics but unremarkable with them. It has a rich backstory, but is completely unambitious with its narrative. It has the potential to be far more than it is, but is content with dousing itself in familiarity. It overshadows its own strengths in its bid to be accepted by all, but none can say that it's a bad game. The unfortunate reality is just that no one will be talking about it or remembering it come the end of the year, and we'd be surprised if it even makes it to the end of the month as a hot topic. In no uncertain terms The Order 1886 is disposal entertainment, and sadly it can probably get by on being that.

LEBANON — Mike Jones' name features prominently in the Lebanon High wrestling room, as he's on the lists displayed for district winners, state placers and college All-Americans.
On Thursday night, the Warriors' most decorated grappler ever was back in his hometown and hosting a clinic for about 25 wrestlers.
Jones stressed basic moves and proper positioning, not high-amplitude throws, as the way to win quality matches.
"You better be good at the basics, because those will kill you in the end," he said.
During the clinic, Jones showed a takedown technique to freshman Keith Brown. "You'll kill them. The heavyweights can't defend this," Jones said.
Brown took second in state at 195 pounds as a freshman for Lebanon this winter, but he was eager to learn from a local legend.
"I'm definitely going to use that move," Brown said. "The wisdom guys like this have…"
For decades, Lebanon wrestling has focused on the essentials of the sport, not "fancy stuff," said head coach Michael Cox.
Assistant coach Garrett Urrutia, himself a state champ for the Warriors in 2012, said that Jones' visit nevertheless energized the regularly scheduled Lebanon Mat Club practice, which included grapplers from elementary school to high school.
"It's great because he brings a different perspective," Urrutia said.
Jones returns to Lebanon three or four times a year, as he still has family in the area. But this visit was for his induction into the Lebanon High School Hall of Fame this weekend.
Despite a relatively slow start, his achievements in his sport are numerous — Jones is in the USA Wrestling Hall of Fame and the British Columbia Sports Hall of Fame, which labeled him the greatest Canadian wrestling coach ever.
Jones said he was essentially talked into wrestling in middle school and didn't have much success in the sport until his junior year, when he took third in state and the Warriors captured the team crown. He took an individual wrestling championship during his senior season in 1969.
At Oregon State, Jones was a two-time NCAA runner-up in 1971 and 1973. He also was a two-time U.S. Open champion in wrestling, capturing titles in both the Greco-Roman and freestyle disciplines.
But Jones' greatest mark on the sport has been as a coach.
In 1976, at age 25, he went north of the border to coach Simon Fraser University's wrestling team, in Burnaby, British Columbia.
Jones figured the stint would last a few years and he'd return back to the states. Instead, he never left.
"They gave me the freedom to do everything," Jones said, and that included coaching the national team, which he did for two Olympics and numerous world championships.
Jones developed 18 Olympians at Simon Fraser, including three gold medalists, and the first Canadian to ever win an Olympic grappling title.
In the 1990s, Jones helped create Simon Fraser's pioneering program for women, and two of his Olympic champions are females.
The last 12 years of Jones' career were spent primarily leading the women's team at Simon Fraser, though he officially was in charge of the men's squad, as well.
Jones said that women's wrestling has made great strides, and the best women are now as technically proficient as any man.
"This is here to stay. I don't see it stopping," Jones said, noting that the OSAA will have its first girls wrestling tournament next school year.
Jones retired in the spring of 2017, after 41 years with Simon Fraser, but he still advises the program.
And he still gets a kick out of spotting diamonds in the rough, whether those wrestlers are from his hometown or from a small town in B.C. that makes Lebanon look like a teeming metropolis.
"There are good kids everywhere. You just need a program that allows them to get from A to Z," Jones said.
An informal celebration for Mike Jones' induction into the Lebanon High Hall of Fame will be from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Schmizza Public House, 2602 S. Santiam Highway in Lebanon. The cost to attend is $20, which includes pizza, salad and a beverage. The Weisbrodt Wrestling Scholarship gets $10 for each paid attendee.
