Sometimes you just need to take a break. That's what I'm doing from all the "shoulds" and "have to's" in life — at least for a couple of days. Lori and I found a great deal on a bed and breakfast along the San Diego County North Coast, only about a 75-minutes drive from our house. We have a wonderful ocean view room at the Cardiff-by-the-Sea Lodge and great continental breakfast. No work, no traffic, no kids, no dog, no garbage to take out or dinners to cook. It's the little things that make life more enjoyable when you're feeling tired. These few days away while grandma and grandpa stay over actually begin a month-long break I'll be taking from work. Even though I need to work from home here and there, and show up a few times at church, I know I need to take this break.
Psoriasis is just one reason for this pause in my life. Life can become a tangled mess, like a ball of yarn where you can't find where the beginning or end is. At some point, you get frustrated and start pulling on any little loop or piece sticking out. What happens? The tangles begin to tighten and the loops become knots. That's how I feel about life. I need a methodical approach to untangling and making the different responsibilities of my life more manageable. But right in there is my health, including psoriasis. Thankfully, I don't have any other physical ailments causing me to feel fatigued, as a physical exam by my general practitioner laid those fears to rest. But I wonder how much the burden of my psoriasis worsening adds negatively to the equation?
I plan to see my dermatologist in less than two weeks. I'm facing the crossroad that I had been avoiding for a while now: The need to change medications. Past posts document these inevitable transitions. Medications and therapies eventually become ineffective for me unless I use rotational therapy. I know that; I see that train coming. But it's more than drugs that I need to change. Treating psoriasis takes a whole life approach. This year is all about health and wellness, not just throwing some needles, ointments, and pills at the skin condition. I wear too much responsibility, the effect of negative thinking, and over-commitment on my skin daily. Treating those factors will take center stage along with figuring out my new treatment regime.
Sometimes a break is in order. I'm looking forward to mine! Do you feel like you need a break, a pause in life? How does your current lifestyle affect your psoriasis?

We don't know who took these photos, but the strange journey of USAirways Flight 1549 continues... this time through the downtown wilds of suburban New Jersey.
You remember Flight 1549, of course -- that was the Airbus A320, that took off from New York's LaGuardia Airport and then landed unexpectedly (if fortuitously) in the Hudson River. After the aircraft was recovered from the drink, it was hauled to the Garden State on a barge. And after it was removed from the barge, it was partially disassembled and transported by truck through the narrow streets of East Rutherford, NJ -- a town best known as the home of the Meadowlands sports arena complex.
Why the strange detour? East Rutherford's local newspaper, The Leader, explains:
"I was in complete shock when I saw the jet coming down the street," said North Arlington resident Jessica Cates.
Since the accident last month, the airplane had been stationed at a barge in Jersey City, after being plucked from the icy Hudson River. Moving to a more permanent home, the jet was transported via a police motorcade and flat-bed truck to its long-term resting place in Harrison.
"It was moved to a salvage facility for storage and further evaluation," said Ted Lopatkiewicz, spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board, which is in charge of the investigation. "Up until now, it was sitting on a barge."
A direct route from Jersey City to Harrison hit a snag Jan. 31 when an overpass along the way detoured the plane into East Rutherford, according to East Rutherford Deputy Police Chief Anthony Krupocin.
From Park Avenue, the plane traveled to Orient Way and then to Route 17 South. "Our officers assisted because the truck was moving slowly, but there were no delays on the roadway," East Rutherford Police Chief Larry Minda said.
Recalling the unusual experience, Cates said she was dining at the Blarney Station on Park Avenue, when she exited the establishment and saw a number of motorcycles and police cars flashing their emergency lights.
At first, Cates said she thought there was an accident, but to her surprise, she ended up seeing the jet — missing the wings and tail — slowly passing by her eyes on a flat-bed truck.
"It was just so big," Cates said. "It begs the question how they got (the plane) on the street."
The plane will remain at the facility until the NTSB's investigation is complete, which Lopatkiewicz estimated would take between nine and 12 months.

Thieves target 7 homes in Arlington neighborhood
Break-ins happen in daylight while homeowners work
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – David Terry thought his home and neighborhood in Arlington were safe until he became a victim of crime Tuesday.
Terry and his family live off Sprinkle Drive. Six other homes in the area were also burglarized Tuesday while the homeowners were at work.
"You work your tail off and then you have this happen," said Terry. "They went through the screen right here and then around the house and then back to the other side of the house over there. Then there's a door on the side there and that's how they came in and busted the door right there."
The robbers took the Terry family's flat screen TV, Wii system, a jug full of change and Mrs. Terry's jewelry.
"She's pretty devastated. She's still in shock and everything and she was pretty hurt about it," said Terry.
Channel 4 Crime Analyst Ken Jefferson said this rash of break-ins in Arlington is a crime of opportunity.
"We sometimes take bad guys for granted as being dumb and stupid, but they carefully plot out where they want to hit and where they want to go inside a home," said Jefferson.
In most of these burglaries, the crooks hit the homes during the day and broke in through the back of the home. That's something Jefferson said was planned.
"You can believe that the burglars who are committing these crimes in this particular area have put this place under surveillance. They've watched the tendencies of the people they know when they're coming and going, 98% of when they're not at home, and that's when they're going to hit," said Jefferson.
Terry said he's now going to put his home under surveillance. He said he is planning to install a security system in his home to prevent further burglaries.
For now, Terry said he's just grateful his family is okay.
"Good thing nobody was home at the time and nobody got hurt. Things can be replaced, but you can't replace a life," said Terry.

Listening to music is one thing, but really experiencing the sounds is something completely different. You might think all that you do with music is listen to it, but Monster DNA Headphones wants your music to be more than that, they want to transport you to a concert, take you in the studio and hear those chords in a way you have never heard them before.
Sometimes in life a description, a picture or even a in depth story are not enough to be able to create the imagery that is needed to bring to life that impact of something as special as Monster DNA . There are certain things that just have to be experienced and Monster DNA Headphones are exactly one of those products. Once you own a pair of Monster DNA Headphones you will find that you take a great deal of pleasure in letting other people try them for the first time and watching the expression on their face. You could compare it a young child waking up on Christmas morning with a twinkle in their eye and a smile on their face. You will literally hear your favorite song in a way that you have never heard it before.
Monster DNA has a retail price of $229.95 for the on-ear models and $119.95 for the black and white in-ear versions, which might cause a little bit of sticker shock. But as the say goes, "you get what you pay for." There is no better example of this than with Monster DNA.
"Is 200 dollars a lot or is 200 dollars a little, but if you equate what you get for 200, there is no other way to get this sound, if you had a $50,000 audio system you couldn't get the sound we get out of our headphones, if you had a $100,000 studio system, this sounds as good, as dynamic, to me and the users if you want the sound the engineers, producers and artists hear everyday that is the price of entry," Noel Lee said. "It really depends how much music is part of your life, if it is a big part of your life think of the value of your content, how much is that worth, take it one more step how much is your time worth, if you listen to music three hours per day do you want to spend three hours where it sounds great or have it just sound mediocre. Some people are satisfied with background music and some people say I want to feel like I'm at the concert and you multiply it times the life of the headphones and it is cheap."
While you might not know the name Noel Lee, his creativity since founding Monster over 30 years ago is known and praised throughout the music industry as he was recently honored with the prestigious Plus X Award®: Lifetime Achievement Award, as a company dedicated to creating products that enhance the sound quality of music. Noel was the man behind the most famous headphones to date, Beats by Dr. Dre™ and now he has taken the sound to a wider ranging audience with his Monster DNA Headphones.
"What is it that Monster did to revolutionize the industry and how come these other guys didn't do it? They aren't musicians and recording engineers. I'm a recording engineer and a musician and a mechanical engineer by trade, so I understand sound and what I'm trying to achieve and I understand measurements and technology," Noel said.
Not just creative on the technical end, Noel has partnered with Viacom to bring Monster DNA into the world of CMT, COMEDY CENTRAL, Logo, MTV, SPIKE, Tr3s, VH1 and VH1 Classic. Monster DNA could not have asked for a more appropriate place to debut than the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards. The new headphones will be integrated into several elements, and VMA performing and presenting music artists and celebrities will have the first-hand look and sound experience when they receive special chrome versions, a nod to MTV's moon man. Monster DNA will also be integrated into the 2012 MTV EMA, airing globally from Frankfurt, Germany on Sunday, November 11th.
"What we did with our friends at Beats is we made it part of lifestyle, we made it part of fashion, I wanted to create a fusion sports, entertainment and fashion that has never been done before, it is really the way to market in the new millennium, popularizing something to be part of pop culture. When you integrate the three into a consumer's electronics product like headphones you create something greater than the one individual," Noel said.
Technology is advancing everyday, allowing more and more entertainment to be placed right in your hands. You could have the most expensive equipment to store music, movies, internet and television on, but if you don't have sound quality to match it you are only giving yourself a portion of the entire entertainment package. Monster DNA Headphones will complete your entertainment experience and will take your listening awareness to a level you have never heard before.

Home owners are moving again: After hitting a record low last year, the national home mover rate increased from a record low of 11.6 percent in 2011 to 12 percent in 2012, the U.S. Census Bureau reports.
Many Americans who do move aren't going too far. About 40 percent of the 11.8 million people who moved to another county, only moved less than 50 miles away, according to the Census data.
The most common state-to-state moves in 2011:
"The overall mover rate for the nation has increased since a record low," says Alison Fields, chief of the Census Bureau's Journey-to-Work and Migration Statistics Branch. "However, compared to previous years, mobility is still low for even our most mobile age group (18 to 29 year olds)."

Resolutions 2012
2012 is here and after a busy 2011 I can honestly say I am glad. 2011 was one of the craziest business years I've ever experienced. Barely 5 years into this poultry adventure we find ourselves upgrading. Technology changes so fast there is always something new to add or update to keep things "state of the art". Of course the capital investment is difficult to stomach, but when you have one customer I guess it's important to try to keep the peace. Technology doesn't seem to be the only thing that changes in Cobb. In 5 years I find myself dealing with both my third service technician and my third complex manager. I also find myself unhappy with the business for the first time. I'm beginning to understand that corporate agriculture is no different than corporate manufacturing. It's all about cutting cost. Cobb contracts a lot of things and we as contract growers find ourselves at the mercy of these contractors. If Cobb can save a few thousand or even a few hundred dollars per farm with a new contractor their business model is such that they do just that. I have no problem with cutting costs, the problem comes in when the new contractor only has to do a certain percentage of what the old contractor was doing and the rest gets pushed on down to the farmer. Not to mention Cobb doesn't feel responsible when their contractors steal your things or damage your equipment. In particular Cobb has decided to change "wash crew" contractors. The new "wash crew" contractor bids the job cheap enough to get the contract by saving Cobb money, but they won't wash the nests. That's no problem for Cobb. They save money. Then they dictate to the farmer that they now have to wash their own nests. When the farmer objects Cobb simply says "you'll do it or I won't bring you any more chickens". I never experienced this blatant breach of contract or disrespect in any other environment without feeling I had recourse. It's very difficult for me as a person. In this business you are a slave to the guy who spends 3 days a week in an office, half a day a week visiting farms, and takes 3 day weekends to golf or fish or spend with his family. All the while you give up those things in an effort to survive financially. I don't mind to work. I don't mind to work every day. I don't mind missing a few functions with my children. I do mind being disrespected and feeling forced to do something I didn't agree to do. Our contracts are written by attorney's that work for Cobb and yet they specifically state "The Company agrees to furnish the Producer with spray material, spray equipment and labor to sanitize the Producer's houses and/or buildings at no cost to the Producer". I can't help feeling as though we are on a slippery slope here. At this point it's not enough to fight over, but I am seriously concerned this has started the ball rolling. There never seems to be enough hours in the day to get things done. I've been feeding chickens at 5 am, gathering eggs til 9, and heading next door to work on upgrades til 4 or 5 every evening. Just this year we've added stir fans, attic inlets, 36″ minimum ventilation fans, 16′ roll seal doors, blown in almost 10 pallets of cellulose insulation, and we still have to work on our slats and drinkers. After that there's cows, horses, rabbits, and goats to feed.
Luckily most of the kids activities are on weekends now so I haven't missed many of those. We've been taking a break from the upgrades on weekends. Working 5 or 6 hours on Saturday and Sunday seems like a day off. Madison has had basketball most weekends. This week should wrap up her AAU league play. Every spare minute she has you find her at the ball goal shooting away. She runs through the house jumping and going through shooting motions. It's almost as though basketball has possessed her. Kaylee cheers all the high school games so Madison and I watch and critique most of them. Garett is growing tall, but still has no interest in sports except baseball. He has however shown some interest in band. He also told me he would like to have a greenhouse and grow flowers and vegetables. Madison and Garett are both still enjoying jujitsu. Kaylee and Katie are still typical teenage girls who don't have much use for dad until there's a problem with their cell phones or they need money, ipods, or clothes. I guess that's pretty typical of teenage girls. All the kids are doing good in school and haven't had any discipline problems so I guess so far so good.
With all the upgrades and cleaning out at farm 1 the 7010 cab and the 3316 HST have been getting a pretty good little workout. The 7010 has hardly sat still between feeding rolled hay to the cows, loading out 2 houses of litter to be spread, unloading all the equipment we used in the upgrades, lifting the roll seal doors in place and holding them while we attached them, and hauling the slats to the field to be washed. The 3316 is great inside the poultry houses. The HST makes it a breeze to push the litter to the center were it can be reached. The constant back and forth in such a small space would be a lot more work with a gear transmission. I'm still itching to try the new Power Shuttle transmissions. I think they would be a great fit for a 3rd tractor here that would see limited use in tight spaces. The 6000 4×4 is a great utility tractor, but we just don't use it like we did before the 7010 cab. For months now I've planned to put it up for sale, but after work and activities with the kids I've barely found time for sleep. Jan 2012 is the last month of a payment for the 7010. Couple that with selling or trading in the 6000 and I can see an 8560 cab in my near future. I'd pull the trigger now if I could find any need for it. It's a real balancing act trying to grow a business and have the equipment you need to do the work without buying things you don't really have a need for.
As the title of this posts suggests I've made some resolutions for this new year. One of those is to keep this blog current. I should have a real opportunity to do that with no chickens coming back to Farm 1 until February 28 and Farm 2 selling January 8. Although there's still work to do it should allow time to do some other things too. I've set up a Facebook page for the farm and I'm working on a Twitter account. There's still the Flickr account that has tons of photos to see. I'm hoping to transfer the photos to Facebook too. There's also YouTube that's a work in progress. All in all I'm stoked about making this a pretty cool adventure. Here's the kicker though….It's no good without feedback! So please comment here, there, and everywhere. Here's wishing all you much success in 2012!

Oophorectomy (oh-of-uh-REK-tuh-me) is a surgical procedure to remove one or both of your ovaries. Your ovaries are almond-shaped organs that sit on each side of the uterus in your pelvis. Your ovaries contain eggs and produce hormones that control your menstrual cycle.
When oophorectomy involves removing both ovaries, it's called bilateral oophorectomy. When the surgery involves removing only one ovary, it's called unilateral oophorectomy.

Utah's Whittingham: change in offense going well
LOS ANGELES — After years of success, including huge victories and marquee bowl wins, new Pac-12 member Utah is changing its offense, from its signature spread to a pro-style system.
Are the Utes crazy?
"We think it's the right direction to go," Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said Tuesday during Pac-12 football media day interviews.
Utes quarterback Jordan Wynn is better suited to play from under center than in the shotgun, the coach said.
"Jordan took snaps from center almost exclusively in high school," Whittingham said.
Passing-game guru Norm Chow has joined the Utah staff as offensive coordinator. Chow's resume includes stops at BYU, Southern Cal, UCLA and the NFL. Utah is his alma mater.
"(Changing the offensive philosophy) is one reason we brought Norm Chow in," Whittingham said.

The IRA have threatened to kill more police officers and said that the Queen's upcoming visit to Ireland is an insult. The IRA believes that Queen Elizabeth II is guilty of war crimes.
Tanaiste (Vice Prime Minister) Eamon Gilmore said he was absolutely disgusted by the IRA's comments with relation to threatening to killer more police officers.
Gilmore said "I think the sight of somebody appearing in a mask and menacingly threatening Catholics, who joined the PSNI, nationalists who joined the PSNI, that they would be killed, threatening the governments and threatening the people of this country, that belongs to the past and that is the past,"
The Tanaiste was meeting with the Irish American Congressman Richard Neal in Dublin on Tuesday when he made the comments.
In Derry Father Michael Canny has offered to meet with the Real IRA in an attempt to convince them to abandon violence. He told RTE (Ireland's national broadcaster) that he is eager to engage with them and stop them going down the road which leads to "death, despair and misery".
He said that the dissidents should be told at every opportunity that "human life is sacred".
Gilmore said "The arrangements in this country have been settled by the Good Friday Agreement, been voted on by the people of this country and nobody has any right to challenge that in the way that these people are doing. The Government is absolutely determined that they will not succeed…If there is anybody who can persuade these people away from the path that they are on and the threats that they are making, then certainly I would welcome that. And I would hope that that would be helpful."
Leader of the Fianna Fail party, Micheal Martin said "These deluded criminals fail to comprehend the true meaning of republicanism and quite clearly have nothing but contempt for this country and its people," he said. "Any terrorist group that believes they can return Ireland to the violence of the past is gravely mistaken. Foolish attempts to attack our peace process will not be tolerated and will not work."
Independent member of Northern Ireland Policing Board, Trevor Ringland, said the threats in the statement were "appalling", "sinister" and a "throwback to the past". Ringland commented that the PSNI served both loyalist and republicans.
According the Irish Times reports, former SDLP leader Mark Durkan said the Real IRA's words "are intended to intimidate everyone but their pretensions to legitimacy will impress no one…Politicians do not really have to argue that this group is morally and politically bankrupt when they are driven to attack and threaten nationalists who want to serve the community and their country through a policing vocation."
A statement released by the Real IRA on Monday said they were not in talks with the Irish or British government and refused to enter into any talks unless they revolved around "the restoration of the Irish sovereignty".
The statement read "If the British are serious about discussing the restoration of Irish sovereignty then we will listen to their proposals, anything else is a waste of time…Óglaigh na hÉireann call on any young nationalist who may have been sold the lie that the RUC/PSNI is somehow a reformed, non-political police service to think again. Those who think they are serving their community are in fact serving the occupation and will be treated as such."

In Israel, like most of the world, the universe of computer whizzes and technology entrepreneurs is overwhelmingly male. But the Israeli military's vaunted computer division has declared war on the technology gender gap – and claims that it's turning the tide.
With brochures urging 11th grade girls to join "the next generation of technological women,'' the army operates a handful of programs that identify promising female high schoolers with no background in technology and offers training in subsidized girls-only courses.
Officers estimate that several hundred women a year are enlisting in the army's computer and communication corps as a result of the campaign, and that 40 percent of the staff today consists of women. In the cyber defense units, it's more than half. That said, a 2011 IDF assessment of the technology gap said the numbers are "extremely low'' in R&D jobs.
The immediate goal of the push is to solve a human resources challenge: As the Israel Defense Force has become increasingly wired over the last two decades, the thirst for skilled personnel has grown. Military recruiters are looking beyond the usual computer geeks who lack the physical brawn for a combat job.
"The IDF is in dire need of soldiers, or conscripts that enter the army with a technological background,'' said Lt. Col. Karen Ben Natan Kruger, the head of technological personnel and research. "The IDF will always prefer to place a male conscript in combat. My aim is to utilize the rest of the population.''
One program, dubbed "Hadarim',' Hebrew for "citrus," begins in the last year of high school with a year-long introductory computer course for girls administered by Microsoft trainers. Once in the army, recruits learn network administration, systems management, programming, and cyber defense in the army's computer school.
Some graduates of the Hadarim program continue on to "Mamram,'' an IDF computing center whose graduates are in high demand in the workforce because of a reputation for pumping out top programmers and start-up CEOs.
"I used think it wasn't for me,'' said Sgt. Hodayah Ohayon, a Hadarim participant who graduated from an army training course as a network administrator in September. "Then I found myself challenged.''
Officers say the push to recruit women into the computing corps has a broader societal goal: positioning them to get jobs in technology companies after the army and close the technology gap in the civilian workforce.
"The idea to try to balance it out to at least 50-50,'' said Lt. Tamar Bar Sheshset, a spokeswoman for the computer corps. "So gals will be there, and it won't be a world of guys.''
So far, however, there's no hard data to point to an erosion of the gender gap in civilian high tech industries.
In the Israeli private sector, women account for 22 percent of research and development employees, according to government statistics cited in the Haaretz newspaper. According to the Genome project, only 9 percent of Israeli technology entrepreneurs are women.
When asked about what female graduates of the computer units do after the army, the army spokesman said that some have been recruited by Microsoft and Intel. The army didn't have numbers on what percent of Hadarim graduates go on to work in technology jobs.
However, a study of graduates from a similar program in which women trained for technology jobs in women-only post-secondary courses – "Rakia'' — found only 22 percent employed in the field of study five years after leaving the army, according to study by Israel's trade ministry. Nearly two-thirds of the graduates never end up working in the field.
Indeed, experts both in the army and outside say it will take more than the military outreach to reverse the technology gender gap.
"It's the education system that is failing. Women leave tech studies at 14, when it is considered not cool,'' said Michal Michaeli, who is raising money for a venture capital fund, Eva Ventures, that will invest in start-ups founded by women. "Even from very solid homes, this is the stage when peer pressure is the strongest. This is when they need an answer.''
An army assessment suggested the technology gap starts even earlier, with messages passed from parents and teachers to girls. An IDF paper from 2011 concluded "the ability of the IDF to make up for this is limited…the path must be begun much earlier.''

Adult Swim parodies TV newsmags with "Newsreaders"
[media-credit name="Adult Swim" align="alignleft" width="270″][/media-credit]
A genre that begs for parody, the TV newsmagazine, will get the Adult Swim satirical once-over beginning Jan. 17 with the premiere of "Newsreaders," from Rob Corddry and the team from "Children's Hospital."
The satirical series purports to go behind the scenes for a look at the production of those heartwarming features and other non-urgent not-quite-news stories that are the bread and butter of TV newsmags. Mather Zickel ("Delocated," "Man Up!") plays host Louis La Fonda. Guest stars include Ed Begley Jr., Lizzy Caplan, Garret Dillahunt, Dave Foley, Rachel Harris, Dennis Hayesbert, Tom Lennon, Joey McIntyre and Mary Lynn Rajskub.
If it can do for the self-important newsmags what "Children's Hospital" has done for hospital dramas (ie. skewer them), "Newsreaders" will be a fun time-waster.

(Reuters) - Shares of Clearwire Corp plunged as much as 31 percent after a Wall Street Journal report quoted its CEO as saying the company was considering skipping a $237 million interest payment due December 1.
Shares of the cash-strapped high-speed wireless firm dropped as low as $1.28 as investors worried that their fears about bankruptcy could be realized. The stock regained some ground to close at $1.47, down 20 percent, on the Nasdaq.
Clearwire said it "does not comment on speculation" and declined to discuss the story.
Clearwire, which is majority owned by its biggest customer Sprint Nextel Corp, has been seeking almost $1 billion in funding to keep operating and to upgrade its network. The two companies, which have a rocky relationship, have been negotiating for an extension of their network agreement.
One analyst said that Clearwire's Chief Executive Officer Erik Prusch may have used the interview comments as a lever to try to force a new network agreement with Sprint, which uses Clearwire's wireless airwaves for its own services.
"I think they're using the interest payment as a negotiating tactic with Sprint," said Mizuho analyst Michael Nelson. "Sprint has the most to lose if Clearwire defaults on its debt and files for bankruptcy."
Clearwire had said earlier this month that it had enough cash on its balance sheet to meet the interest payment and keep operating for 12 months. But according to the Journal, Clearwire is not sure that paying up is in its best interests.
"It's a very expensive payment that we have," Chief Executive Erik Prusch told the Journal. "It would be a significant drain of our cash, so we have to evaluate everything in terms of our decision of where we're going."
Prusch also told the Journal that he has a number of advisers looking at strategic options but he declined to comment on whether the company would restructure its debt in or out of bankruptcy court, according to the story.
He told the paper that Clearwire would have a 30-day grace period should it fail to make the payment by December 1.
The comments likely mean that Clearwire is not making much progress in its efforts to secure funding, Mizuho's Nelson said.
"It's extremely risky. All sides are playing hardball right now," Nelson said, adding that Sprint would be at a disadvantage if Clearwire started negotiating with debtholders, who would be first in line to be repaid in a bankruptcy.
"It would really tighten the screws on Sprint to come up with an amicable solution before December 31," if Clearwater didn't pay, said Nelson. "They certainly have the option of not making the interest payment. Then they potentially default, unless they're able to negotiate a solution with their debtholders."
Investor fears for Clearwire heightened on October 7 when Sprint told investors at its analyst meeting that a Clearwire bankruptcy could be "constructive."
At the end of the third quarter Clearwire had about $4 billion in long-term debt and $711 million in cash and investments on its balance sheet.
Clearwire is looking to upgrade its network with a high-speed wireless technology known as LTE but it needs $600 million in financing to do that along with up to $300 million to fund its operations.
Sprint is also upgrading its own network with LTE, and has said it is looking to extend its agreement with Clearwire to include LTE.
While some analysts said Prusch's comments could suggest a higher likelihood of bankruptcy, others disagreed.
Macquarie Capital analyst Kevin Smithen said Sprint would come to Clearwire's rescue and that he does not expect Clearwire to default.
"We expect that (Sprint) will inject $500-600 (million) into (Clearwire) by year-end at the latest in the form of a prepayment or loan," he said.
Sprint was not immediately available for comment.
Sprint shares closed down 8 cents, or 3 percent, at $2.62 on the New York Stock Exchange.

It can be difficult to make a decision about something that is very important. You may feel overwhelmed by all the information you have been given or may be influenced by relatives and friends.
It may help to think about how you approached big decisions in the past. Are you guided by your first impressions and instincts? Or do you usually need to think things through for a long time?
When you have thought about all the information you have, you may find it helpful to put it aside and try not to think about it for a few days. If you can, do something different to distract you from making the decision. If you need to decide fairly quickly, it may help to get a good night's sleep and then make the decision the next day. Giving yourself a short break before making the decision may help you look at all the information with a fresh approach.

Robbers pepper-spray convenience store clerks | Crime
CONYERS, Ga. -- Rockdale County sheriff's officials are looking for two suspects accused of robbing at least two convenience stores.
In both incidents, the suspects sprayed some type of chemical on a store clerk before taking money.
The first robbery happened Saturday at a BP in the 2900 block of Highway 138.
Rockdale County Sheriff's Capt. Myra Pearrell said two masked men entered the store. One of them sprayed pepper spray in a store clerk's face before grabbing money out of the register.
The clerk described her attackers as white men. One wore a green camouflage jacket and a ski mask, while the other wore a dark blue hooded jacket, black hat and white bandana, and may have been armed with a machete.
The second robbery occurred Monday morning at a BP/Kangaroo Express in the 4600 block of Highway 155.
According to Pearrell, the store clerk was checking on a trash can outside when the two suspects approached. One of them sprayed the clerk in the face with pepper spray, forced her into the store and made her open the cash register. The suspect sprayed the clerk a second time before he and his accomplice stole a rack of cigarette lighters and then ran from the store.
Police believe the same two men are responsible for both robberies, as the second clerk's description of the suspects was very similar to the first clerk's.
Anyone with information in this case is asked to call the Rockdale County Sheriff's Office at 770-278-8188 or Crime Stoppers Atlanta at 404-577-TIPS.

Columbia, SC (WLTX) - Officials say an escaped South Carolina inmate used a dummy to fake out guards and help on the outside to make it all the way to Texas before he was finally caught early Friday morning.
South Carolina Corrections officials and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division gave an update on 46-year-old Jimmy Causey's capture late Friday morning, hours after his capture near Austin, Texas.
Corrections Director Bryan Stirling say Causey escaped on July 4th around 8 p.m. from the Lieber Correctional in Dorchester County. Stirling said the inmate put a paper mache doll in his bed to make it look like he was sleeping, then snuck away from his cell.
He was able to use wire cutter to cut through the fence and get outside.
Stirling said Causey used a cell phone to get help from the outside, and a drone may have been used to deliver him the supplies he needed to make his escape.
Corrections officials didn't realize he was missing until the next day. Around 2 p.m., an alert was sent out to the media that he was gone.
SLED Chief Mark Keel says they continued to develop leads, around 1 a.m. Friday, got word that he was at a Motel 6 in Austin. They contacted the Texas Rangers, who went to the hotel room around 4 a.m. and captured him while he was sleeping.
Causey offered no resistance.
"This was just good old-fashioned law enforcement," Keel said. "We worked night and day."
Officers say they found a semi-automatic handgun, a shotgun, ammo, four cell phones, and $47,000 in cash on Causey. He also had some type of South Carolina ID.
"Ff someone leaves the South Carolina Department of Corrections and tries to escape, we will hunt them down and look for them until we find them," Stirling said. "They will not be able to sleep or close their eyes and feel comfortable that they've gotten away because we will not stop like you saw this week."
Stirling said they're reviewing to see why it took so long to discover that Causey was gone, and there will be a review to see if proper procedure was following. However, he says the main problem was the use of cell phones and drones, something he and other officials have been asking the federal government for help on for years.
"It's a simple fix," Stirling said. "Allow us to block the signal. Allow us to stop them to have unfettered access...They are physically incarcerated, but they are not virtually incarcerated."
Stirling said the federal government has been reluctant to allow this, but if things don't change, there will be more escapes like this one, and someone could get hurt. He said the state is wasting money on putting up netting and other tools to stop cell phones and contraband, money that could be used to hire more guards.
Keel agrees.
"We're going to have things like this, very well planned escapes," Keel said.
Officials are working to get Causey back here as soon as possible. He was in prison on a life sentence for a kidnapping violation from Richland County.
Causey escaped from two different prisons in a dozen years. He and another inmate escaped Broad River Correctional Institution in Columbia in 2005 by hiding in a trash truck. They were captured three days later.
Causey was sentenced to life in prison in 2004 after he was convicted of holding Columbia attorney Jack Swerling and his family at gunpoint in their home.

I need to get a list that I can print off and study of all the technical terms pertaining to Java.
If you can send me a link that'd be great.
Haha, there's so many terms to know.
Here's a few of the more important ones (mostly CS terms, but some have a Java twist to them). Sorry for the ordering, I just put them here in what ever order they came to my mind
Abstract: Basically taking away the details. You can think of this as the "magical black-box" analogy. You can put stuff in to it, it will give you something out, but you don't know (and don't care) how it does. However, it must tell you that for something you put in, what you should expect out. Methods are commonly used to "abstract away" details (see below).
Polymorphism: Being able to look at an object in multiple ways. The simplest example is this: Take a Fararri Enzo. It is a Farrari Enzo (by default ). However, if needed, it can be looked at as a car, also, which can be looked at as an automobile. However, this only goes one way. You can't say that you're car is a Fararri Enzo (unless it really is, in which case you are lucky!).
Encapsulation: This is restricting access to components of an object. An example is the steering: You don't have direct access to turn the wheels anyway you want. Some of these limitations are physical, but some of them were put there by the manufacturer via the steering wheel This lets the maker of the object decide how that object can be used, and how it can not be used.
Method: A method is known by several names: function, sub-routine, and maybe a few others. Basically, it's the black box I talked about in abstraction. It should tell you what to put in, then given what you put in should give you an output of some kind.
Side-Effect: Pertaining to methods, side-effects are other things methods might do. In classical computer science, methods can only have 1 output. Side effects may be changes that are made to the object, text or pictures drawn to the screen, or anything else the method does that has a lasting effect when the method is done running.
Variable: Variables can be thought of as buckets. They hold stuff, in particular, information. Variables have 4 things: A value, a lifetime, scope, and a name. A variable's value and name seem like fairly self-explanatory terms, so I won't delve into what they are unless you want me to. Lifetime is when the variable actually physically exists in memory. Scope is when the variable can be used. This may be confusing to think of, but here's an example: pretend your program is a person writing stuff on a piece of paper. Then, he gets out a second separate sheet of paper to do other calculations. Everything on that first sheet is still physically available, but is not in scope (not usable) of the second sheet. However, if you throw away that first sheet, the variables on the first sheet have "died", and their lifetime is over.
Recursion: Recursion is anything that either directly or indirectly refers to itself. A good example in mathematics is the Fibonacci Sequence: the nth term is simply the sum of the 2 previous terms, with the first 2 terms being 1.
Loop: A loop is any code that repeats itself. You can think of this as a race track, where the cars are executing a certain command depending on where they are on the track, and when they get back to the beginning, they execute the same code again, though it may have different effects each time through (like drivers may adjust how they drive each lap).
Object: An object is... an object. It's basically any idea or physical thing you can represent in any way that you deem necessary.
Class: A class defines what an object would be. A good analogy is social class. Within each social class (rich, poor, politicians, clergy, etc.), there can be different objects (people). However, there is an over-all definition of which each class each object belongs to. Classes can contain fields and methods, both static and non-static.
Field: A variable inside a class.
Static: In java, static is a modifier added to a field or a method that denotes it as not belonging to any one object, but to the class as a whole. An example of this is tax rate: Regardless of which person you are, you have to pay a certain tax rate (well, not completely true, but let's assume this is true).
Non-static, or instance: Basically the opposite of static. It's any field that applies specifically to a certain object in a class, or any method that acts on a certain object in a class. An example of this is a person's name: Not everyone has the same name. However, people's names don't necessarily have to be different.
I think those are the main ones I deal with on a daily basis, let me know if there are any others you want me to define
JavaPF (September 20th, 2009)
You're awesome, thanks a ton.
Here a few others I thought of:
Algorithm: Any combination of steps/actions to accomplish something. An analogy is a recipe for making cake. You follow a certain list of instructions, with given inputs (ingredients). At the end of the recipe, you're left with some output (yummy cake).
Getters/Setters: Fancy names for methods that get the value of or set the value of a field.
Data structure: Any specification to how data is stored, and how that data is viewed. Some common types of data structures are: collection, set, list, linked list, array, heap, hash table, trees, and maps. Data structure is also commonly referred to as an Abstract Data Type, or ADT.
Collection: A data structure that contains stuff. This has also been known as a bag, since the order doesn't matter, and you can have similar things inside that bag (say 2 red marbles, a blue one, and 5 yellow ones).
Set: A collection that only contains one of anything inside of it.
List: A collection where order does matter.
Linked List: A type of list that in the implementation, each item's position is determined relative to where the next and/or previous item is. Example: The first item (also called the head) of a list of cars I like is the Ariel Atom. I like the Porshe 911 less than the ariel atom, and I like the Honda Civic less than the Porshe 911.
Array: A type of list that in the implementation, each item's position is determined absolutely in that list. Example: My #1 favorite car is the Ariel Atom. My #2 favorite car is the Porshe 911. My #3 favorite car is the Honda Civic. (note the subtle differences between linked lists). Is also commonly referred to as an Array List.
Array index: The array index is the location in an array that a certain element exists. In java, this index starts counting from 0, so the first element's index is 0, the second element's index is 1, etc.
Queue: Any list that has FIFO access. An example are queues for getting food, or waiting in line at an amusement park.
FIFO: First in, first out.
Stack: Any list that has a LIFO access. An example is a stack of cards: pretend you can only add cards to the top, and you can only take cards from the top. Then, the last card you put on is the first card you will take off.
LIFO: Last in, first out.
Heap: A heap is a tree that has been implemented as an array. To calculate the "parent" of a node, divide the array index by 2. The value of each parent must be less than that of both of it's children, so the top element of a heap is the minimum value of that heap. Note: determining if an object is less than another object is completely arbitrary. It also can be greater than, but for a certain heap you MUST stick with only one (either all less than, or all greater than).
Hash table: A hash table is a table that stores elements fairly arbitrarily based on some characteristic of the element (arbitrary), but has some method of retrieving back a specific item.
Hash key: This is the key computed to retrieve the specific item back. This key is computed via a hash function.
Hash function: A function that computes hash keys. Note that this function must always compute the same key given a specific object, and is used both to add items to a hash table and to remove them. The quality of a hash function is determined by how "randomly" it can distribute items in a hash table.
Tree: Any data structure where elements have "children". It's easy to think of a real life tree: suppose the top element is the trunk. Then, coming out of the trunk are some large branches. From these branches are other branches, and maybe even more branches from the next level of branches. Eventually, you reach a leaf node, and there are no more branches/leaves you can go further with.
Map: Probably the most difficult to explain, A map is a set of nodes and a set of links between nodes. An example is a real life-map: The nodes are the cities/locations, and the links are the roads. Links can have "weights", or how much it costs to travel between to nodes via that link.
Map path: Any set of links in a map that must be traversed to get from one node to another node.
*Note: for the ADT's, I've only provided a short overview of what they are. I'd strongly suggest you read more about these on google/wikipedia or some programming books as they give much more details concerning ADT's (and any of these terms).

Terry Pendleton is in his 16th season on the Braves' coaching staff and his second as bench coach...He moved into his current role in May 2015, when Brian Snitker was named as manager.
Pendleton previously served five-plus seasons (2011-16) as the club's first base coach and was the hitting coach for nine seasons, from 2002 to 2010.
In 2008, under Pendelton's guidance, Chipper Jones led the majors with a .364 batting average to become the first Brave to win the N.L. batting title since Pendleton himself won in 1991.
In 2005, Pendleton was instrumental in outfielder Andruw Jones' MVP-caliber season, as Jones adopted a new batting stance and established a Braves' franchise record with 51 home runs.
In his second season as Braves' hitting coach in 2003, the team established franchise bests in home runs (235), hits (1,608), doubles (321) and slugging percentage (.475) and had the highest team batting average in Atlanta history (.284).
Pendleton was named to the Braves staff in November 2001, after enjoying a 15-year Major League playing career.
He was selected the N.L. Most Valuable Player in 1991 and was an All-Star third baseman in 1992 while playing for the Braves.
A switch-hitter, Pendleton batted .287 with 71 home runs and 322 RBI in 593 games for Atlanta and .270 with 140 homers and 946 RBI in 1,893 games overall with the St. Louis Cardinals, Braves, Florida Marlins, Cincinnati Reds and Kansas City Royals.
He was a three-time recipient of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award (in 1987 and 1989 with St. Louis and in 1992 with Atlanta).
Signed as a free agent in December of 1990 by general manager John Schuerholz, Pendleton played for the Braves from 1991 through 1994 and in part of 1996.
In 1991 he batted an NL-best .319 with 22 home runs and 86 RBI...He tied for the league lead with 303 total bases, helping him earn the N.L. MVP Award, as well as Comeback Player of the Year honors.
He was voted an All-Star starter in 1992, hitting .296 with 13 home runs and 51 RBI before the break and finishing the year with a .311 average, 21 homers and a career-high 105 RBI to lead the Braves to another pennant. He led the N.L. with a .387 average with runners in scoring position and had a career-best 199 hits, a franchise record for third basemen.
Pendleton signed with the Marlins as a free agent in April 1995.
Florida traded him back to Atlanta in exchange for outfielder Roosevelt Brown in August 1996.
Pendleton was signed as a free agent by the Reds in January 1997 and the Royals in January 1998.
He retired as a player the following December.
Pendleton played collegiate baseball at Oxnard (Calif.) Community College and Fresno State University...He was selected by the Cardinals in the seventh round of the 1982 June draft after an All-America campaign at Fresno State.
He was inducted into the California Community College Athelitc Association Hall of Fame in March 2016.
Terry and his wife Catherine reside in Duluth, Ga., with their three children: Stephanie, Terry and Trinity

'NYT Magazine' cover 'Planet Hillary' on Clinton sparks buzz
Talk about gravitational pull. The New York Times Magazine cover "Planet Hillary" that depicts Hillary Rodham Clinton as a strange sort of planet is getting a lot of buzz from folks online.
The 6th Floor blog wrote that one of the inspirations for the look of the cover came from the man-in-the-moon image from a 1902 silent film.
"When we created the cover of this Sunday's magazine to accompany Amy Chozick's article – to be published online tomorrow – about Hillary Rodham Clinton's influence on the various people within her political universe, the immediate idea that came to mind was Clinton's face embedded on a planet," Arem Duplessis, the magazine's design director wrote.
The article that accompanies the cover talks about the universe surrounding the Clintons and the challenges she faces in a potential 2016 bid for the White House.
Criticism, memes, gifs and commentary have appeared across social platforms since the cover was unveiled: Clinton's face as a planet over Justin Bieber's body, as a basketball that LeBron James palms and one with the USA Team uniform.

Day's Worst: Executive accused of having slapped a crying toddler on a plane
Allegations that a drunken executive uttered a racial expletive and slapped a 19-month-old toddler for crying on a plane describe behavior so reprehensible there really was no other choice for a Day's Worst.
Joe Rickey Hundley, 60, faces a federal assault charge, and was fired from his job at an Idaho aerospace and defense firm after the Feb. 8 incident.
This is how the criminal complaint, filed in Minneapolis federal court, described the incident:
Jessica Bennett, 33, of Minnesota, told FBI agents that on Feb. 8 she and her son, Jonah, were passengers on a Delta flight from Minneapolis to Atlanta. Bennett said the aircraft was in its final descent when the boy began to cry due to the altitude change.
The mother told the FBI she was trying to get her son to stop crying, but he continued. A male passenger seated next to her, later identified as Hundley, "told her to shut that ['N word'] baby up."
"I said, 'What did you just say?'" Bennett said, according to ABC News. "And he was so drunk that he fell onto my face, and his mouth moved over to my ear and he said it, just directly into my ear."
Bennett told authorities Hundley then turned around and slapped the child in the face with an open hand, which caused Jonah to scream even louder and left a scratch below his eye.
If this scene unfolded the way it has been described, the year in prison that Hundley could upon conviction hardly seems enough.

You guys, I have had the privilege to be a part of something really amazing over the last week. I have said many times on this blog that great things can happen when people unite together to fight for a cause. If you are not a person as submerged in DRC activism as we are, then maybe you don't know Lisa Shannon. Okay- I don't "know" her personally, but she is kind of a goddess in the world of DRC activism right now. She is the author of the phenomenal book A Thousand Sisters and is the founder of Run for Congo Women which raises sponsorships for Congolese women to get started in their own businesses, care for their children and be self sufficient. Because we all know that when you empower a woman, you change the world. When I think of the work that Lisa and others are doing, I can't help but think of my sons' birth mother. If she had had an advocate, Miles may never have had to be an orphan.
At the heart of the problem in DRC is the battle over mineral mines. All the little components in our computers and cell phones make war lords who control mineral mines in DRC tons and tons of money. They control these mineral mines and the trade routes by which they are smuggled out of Congo by using terror: rape, mutilation, and destruction to force the populations to work in the unsafe environments, and support the work of these rouge militias. They use the millions of dollars they make in the trade of these minerals to buy more guns. More guns, more violence, more terror...the cycle continues. (You can click HERE to see a video of how conflict minerals get from Congo into your phones.)
Recently, the House and Senate have been taking notice that just maybe it is not a good idea to allow these conflict minerals into our electronics. The senate passed a bill to help eliminate conflict minerals. They have proposed HR 4128 which will force electronics companies to be transparent about where their minerals are coming from. It will call for companies to show their supply chain. This will keep companies, like Intel, Nintendo, Sony and dozens of others from being able to get away with using conflict minerals. The bill is on it's way to the House. In the process, there are countless numbers of ways that the bill could get weakened and rendered inefficient, unless we step up and say we want the bill passed as it is. Earlier in the week, some internal documents were leaked from electronics giant, Intel, showing that they were orchestrating a back door lobbyist campaign to try to weaken the bill. They wanted all the parts of the bill that actually held them accountable for their supply chain stricken from the bill. Lisa Shannon got wind of this and began orchestrating a "takeover" of Intel's facebook page. Hundreds of us wrote on Intel's facebook wall that we wanted them to support the bill as it is written and go conflict free. For some crazy reason, Intel absolutely freaked out and stopped allowing us virtual protesters to leave comments on their public space, in some cases, they actually deleted our posts. They later apologized, but will not agree to meet with anyone associated with the protest or stop their attempts to weaken the bill. Through these actions, Intel employees and fans of Intel were educated about conflict minerals- and education here is key. The crazy part of all of this is that INTEL HAS ADMITTED THAT IT WILL COST THEM LESS THAN 1 PENNY PER PRODUCT TO USE ALL CONFLICT FREE MINERALS, yet somehow they still will not do that. They are showing the world that human life is not worth one penny. The latest campaign is to send pennies directly to Intel. Obviously, they need the money. If you have some pennies and a stamp lying around, I urge you to make a huge statement by mailing your pennies to Intel. Here is what mine looked like. (You can click to enlarge.)
You can mail your pennies to Intel at:
Intel Corp.
c/o Suzanne Fallender
2200 Mission College Blvd.
Santa Clara, CA 95054-1549
Show them that their consumers think it is worth a penny to save lives! Emailing is great, but the power of a letter goes for miles. If you want to send a letter with photos- here is my permission to use pictures from my trip to Africa to mail to them. If we are facebook friends, there are also tons of pictures on there.
The fight is on to reach out to other giants in the electronics industry, too. Today the target is Nintendo. If you are a facebooker, go to Nintendo's wall and urge them to go conflict free. The power of this movement is huge! Companies are on the defensive here. If we can keep up the momentum, they will know we mean business! If you want to keep up with which companies are being targeted each day and do your part to ensure that the computers and cell phones you buy in the future won't be tainted with Congolese blood, you can visit my girl Monica's blog Letters To Congo. It is an all activism site designed to orchestrate the masses in a targeted movement to eliminate the crisis in Congo. Some other great resources are the Enough Project, and Lisa Shannon's A Thousand Sister's Blog.
If you are even reading this blog, you are using conflict minerals in your computer. The good news is, that since we are all guilty, we can ALL do something to stop it. Thank you all for caring!

Salmonella is an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with
Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
In rare circumstances, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism getting into the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections, endocarditis, or arthritis.
Eggs affected by this recall were distributed to grocery stores and foodservice companies in the following states– Colorado, Iowa,Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Minnesota. Large, white eggs were packaged under the following brand names: Albertson, Sparboe Farms, Liborio Market, Shamrock Foods and Glenview Farms and in the following configurations and codes:
Plant Number
Julian Dates
6 egg carton
214, 215, 219
12 dozen carton
214, 215, 219
18 dozen carton
214, 215, 219
2 ½ dozen sleeve

214, 215, 219
Extra Large eggs were packaged under the Shurfresh brand name with the following configuration and codes:
Plant Number
Julian Dates:
12 dozen carton
211 and 218
Dates and codes can be found stamped on the end of the egg cartons or the top of the over wrap bag. The plant number begins with the letter P and then the number. The Julian date follows the plant number, for example: P-1167 214. To date Sparboe believes that the inventory that reached stores was removed and replaced.
Consumers who believe they have purchased these shell eggs should not eat them but should either destroy or return them to the store where they were purchased for a full refund. Other fresh shell eggs and egg products sold by Sparboe Farms are not affected.
