Bradford, Tenn.
Daniel Morris of Bradford, Tennessee ('11) is a young alumnus of the University of Tennessee at Martin, but his résumé shows that he has knowledge and experience beyond his years. With his family's background in agriculture and his own noteworthy internships and an ambitious personality, Daniel had no trouble obtaining his position as Grain Merchandiser at Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM).
Growing up, Daniel was constantly involved in agriculture with his family raising row crop and later raising cattle. When he applied to UT Martin, he knew that he wanted to continue working in the agricultural industry. He began his studies focusing on animal science because of his experience in working with cattle. However, he found that he was more passionate about the business-side of agriculture and pursued a degree in agricultural business.
Upon finishing his degree in May 2011, Daniel set his sights on the future and the potential for his future successes. Daniel was accepted into the Masters of Science in Agriculture and Natural Resources with a concentration in Agribusiness and Risk Management in Fall 2011. He decided to start his graduate work with UT Martin because the program is online and offers a concentration in risk management, which is of rising interest in the agribusiness world. In fact, Daniel helps manage risk in his job with ADM. He says, "By offering various types of contracts and marketing solutions for them [farmers], we help them manage their risk."
The online program option was especially attractive to Daniel because after graduation Daniel took a position with Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) after turning down two other job offers. ADM "trades, transports, stores and processes corn, oilseeds, wheat, and cocoa into products for food, animal feed, chemical, and energy uses." Specifically, Daniel communicates directly with customers in purchasing grains and building relationships with them by mitigating their risk by locking in prices for their grain. Because of his work experience through internships, his passion for agriculture, and his own determination, Daniel was able to find a job that suited him upon earning his undergraduate degree, which is no easy feat in this economy.
Of his method for finding internships and eventually, his job, Daniel said, "I went to a trade show in Louisville, Ky., the National Farmers Machinery Show. I wore a tie, dress clothes and had an envelope full of resumes. I went up to a booth, asked them if they were hiring, told them who I was and that I went to the University of Tennessee at Martin and that I was a senior graduating with an Agribusiness degree. I told them who I worked for, and that I was interested in maybe working for them." He advises students that by "…working, getting out there and meeting professionals in the field you're wanting to enter, getting references and networking, getting your face out there" is the best way to market oneself. He added, "They don't come knocking on your door for a job. You've got to go to them."
Being the go-getter Daniel is, he used his determination, industry knowledge and networking skills to land his job with ADM. Daniel greatly appreciates the help, encouragement, and opportunities he received while he attended UT Martin. The university has resources that are beneficial particularly to those majoring to agriculture. Daniel said, "We live in a rural community, a rural area. It's heavily an Ag industry in an Ag area. It's blessing to have this university here that is that focused around agriculture."

Diana Hobby, wife of William P. Hobby Jr., dies at age 83
Diana Poteat Stallings Hobby, the wife of William P. Hobby Jr., died Friday at the age of 83 according to a statement from her family.
She is survived by her husband, their four children and their spouses, and numerous grandchildren. She was suffering the effects of Alzheimer's disease and more recently cancer.
Diana Hobby was born April 22, 1931 in New York City to Helen Poteat and Laurence Tucker Stallings. She graduated from Chatham Hall School in 1948, and later from Radcliffe College in 1952.
She and future Texas Lt. Gov. William Hobby married on Sept. 11, 1954 while he was serving as an officer in the United States Navy. They lived together in Washington, D.C. while William Hobby was stationed there, and his wife earned an M.A. in English literature at nearby Georgetown University during this time.
The couple later moved to Houston where Diana Hobby was the book editor at the Houston Post in the 50s and 60s. Later she would earn a doctorate in English literature from Rice University, writing her dissertation on William Butler Yeats, of whom she was a great fan. She stayed on at Rice until 1991 and retained an emerita role at the school in the years after.
Owing to her great love of the English language, she dedicated her time in support of Texas' public libraries and was a champion of the humanities in the state. She served on the boards of many noted Houston institutions, including the St. John's School, the Memorial Park Conservancy, Friends of Hermann Park, and the Texas Institute of Letters among many others. She also made time for the conservation of Texas' air, water, and wildlife, and was a founding board member of the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. She also sat on the selection committee for the Lady Bird Johnson Highway Beautification Awards, which honored Texans who worked to preserve and protect the state's natural resources.
She loved spending her spare time in nature, especially in her native North Carolina where she could be found exploring forests with her family, friends and beloved dogs.
She was suffering the effects of Alzheimer's disease and more recently cancer.
Services for will be held Tuesday at Palmer Memorial Episcopal Church off Main Street. The family asks that in lieu of flowers and other remembrances that memorial donations be made to the charity of their choice.

Monday night's grudge match with longtime rival, The Boston Celtics, showed why the Miami Heat are in the process of making NBA history.
The Boston Celtics couldn't put away the Heat despite what most would call a winning effort. Boston's Jeff Green had a career high scoring night putting up 43 points and getting the Celtics off to an early lead with 14 first quarter points. The Celtics were grooving and settled into a 17 point lead in the first half.
Miami hung tough and closed the gap to 6 points right before halftime by going on a 15-to-6 run. The Heat didn't waste anytime as the second half began scoring the first 8 points, erasing the Celtic's lead.
The Celtics got in front again and held on to what felt like a comfortable lead.
Doc Rovers, The Boston Celtic's head coach, said, "I believed we were going to win the game before the game. I thought we were going to win the game during the game. And I thought we should have won the game."
The Miami Heat had other plans as the imposing Lebron James and company got to work with about 8 minutes to go in the game. The Heat systematically dug out of the hole and tied the game with just over a minute to play with a Lebron James layup.
After a Celtic miss on the other end of the court, the ball was now in Lebron's hands with the lead up for grabs and seconds to go. Lebron hit a 21 foot jumper giving the Heat the lead and subsequently the teams 23rd consecutive win.
Lebron James, who was involved in all 13 of the final points, spoke about the streak after the win and said, "It means a lot, I know the history of the game. To be sitting in second place right now..for us to be there and doing it the way we want to do it, it means a lot."
The Miami Heat's win streak now only is second to the 1971-72 Lakers who won 33 straight games. The Heat will next travel to Lebron's old stomping grounds and look to get their 24th straight win over the Cavaliers on Wednesday.

Tho manifesto expiessed fear that Nazi coercion and oppression tmU bs "relentlessly fuitherod in Austria" and declared that Catholics, Jews and Prdtest- ants "stand together on common ground in defending human lights and liberties." Among the signa- toues wero Dr. Edgar Devfltt Jones of Potroit, president of tho Federal Council of Churches of Christ; Dr. Hiram H. FoullaS, moderator of tho Presbyteiian Chuich in the U.

Heffron, oxccuti\e secietaiy of the national Council of Catholie Men, and Dr James H Gilhs, editor of the Catholic World. The text of the statement fol¬ lows "We, the undei signed, American citizens of the Protestant, Catho¬ lic and Jewish faiths, have follow¬ ed with profound anxiety the course of recent events in Cen¬ tral Europe; the annexation by threat and forces of the Republic of Austria by the National Social¬ ist government of Gerpiany; and the extension into Austria of op¬ pressive legislation and govern- ment-inspired propaganda of hatr. ed. Events of the past five yea) such asjollevjgd the losteJ^sUwS. the Sasj* to Germany, ilie triumph of National Socialism in Danzig and the expiration of the treaty safeguarding thc rights of minori¬ ties m Upper Silesia, fills us with foreboding that the same aibi- tiary measures of coercion and op¬ pression which have prevailed and continue to prevail in Gormany will be relentlessly furthered m Austria. "As citizens of the United States, which continues to main¬ tain oEEicial relations with the gov¬ ernment of Germany, we have no desire to emharrass those rela¬ tions^ by cxpiessmg any opinion with regard to the political and legal aspects of the annexation of Austria. No considerations of in¬ ternational policy or tho comity of nations, however, can obligate us to keep silent in the face of an assault on human rights and liber¬ ties, which in their- significance transcend geogiaphlcal boundaries and diplomatic conventions. The present cusis makes us vividly aware that, although there are historical differences betweep Catholics, Protestants and Jews which we would not obscuro or minimize, they stand together on common ground in defending hum¬ an rights and hberties. We, therefore, join in expressing our profound abhorrence of the course of oppression and mcitation, the denial of tho rights of minorities, the restrictions on freedom of con¬ science, and tho arhitiary sup¬ pression of political and civic eftuahty, already instituted in Ger¬ many and now being extended in¬ to Austria " Noted German Exile Speaks Here April 5 Gtihnult Snegar, n non-Jew and outsjiokeu anti-Nazi >md former membei of the German Keichstag, is cominp* heie undci tlie auspices of lho Bryden Iload Temple Hi otherhood to nddi-e.«s. tho Jewish men Kioups 0 n. the l^uropo.'in sitiin- tton on Tueaday evening, April S, iri the Tem¬ ple vestry.

Anti- Jewish Papers Terror Reigns in lienna as lundreds AreJailei 17lil@p@rtei Siiieiile PHILADELPHIA (WNS)—A reported attempt to establish pro- Nazi and anti-Semitic daily news¬ papers in 11 cities of the United States with funds provided by Gcr- inan-American business men and priiiting . facilities furnished -by members of tho Germaii-Amcrican Bund was revealed in a copyright¬ ed Washington dispatch in the Philadelphia liiquircr. Reporting that the State Department is look¬ ing into the scheme, the Inquirer declares that the project was sup¬ posed, to have been launched at a meeting of 18 ¦ newspapermen held in the Austrian embassy on March 13tii but,. collapsed when all but five.of the newspapermen "turned deaf cars to the, offers that they were to become manag¬ ing editors of the projected nevfs- papevs and walked out on thc meeting." The'Inquirer states that most of the l8 newspapermen are American' citizens of German descent and that all of them had been engaged since last fall in propaganda to combat the anti-Nazi boycott. The 13 who walked ouii of the meeting, the Philadelphia daily said, "threw Up - the lucrative jobs they had held since last fall." The news¬ papermen were from Philadelphia, Canada,' Detroit, New York, Cleve¬ land, Beaumont, Texas; California, Poitland, Oregon; Chicago, St. Louis, Milwaukee .and Georgia, VIENNA (WNS)—The wave of. suicides that has swept over Aus¬ trian Jewry sinco tho Nazi con¬ quest has already claimed any¬ where between 300 and 1700 lives, more than in 'the first two years of the Nazi regime in Germany. Tho-lower figure is an estimate by oiticinls of the Jewish commun¬ ity while the larger figure is based on rumors and excited reports by individual Jews and Jewish ceme¬ tery caretakers. The large num¬ ber of suicides is due "to the speed and severity with which the Nazis aro purging Jews from Austrian life nnd the inability of most Jews to escape. because frontier patrols are not permitting Jewa t^ leave Without special exit visas which are virtually unobtainable by Jews. In Germany the Nazis struck at Jewish .positions only gradually and in the early years of the re¬ gime permitted jews to leave free¬ ly, but in Austria -tho Nazis are applying the results of a 'five-year iold technique polished to a high order of efTiciency.

text: Getting started in Family History Starting with yourself and working backwards write down all that you know about your family. Talk to your relatives and record what they remember. It's a good idea to make a list of things you want to find out to make sure they don't miss anything. Look for family mementos - letters, photographs, news cuttings, family bibles. Ask relatives if they have anything that might be useful -often old mementoes and documents have been put away and forgotten about. Write down everything that you learn, with a note of where the information has come from. Make sure you also record when a search has been unsuccessful - this will prevent you looking in the same place twice! Start to draw a family tree, leaving plenty of space to add information as you find it. Read a book on genealogy - it will give you a good idea of what sources you will need to use and the information you can expect to get from them. Now you can start adding detail to your family tree - using the wealth of sources available in our archives, libraries and museums

November 16, 2012
South Fallsburg, NY
The family of Efrem Basava Weitzman of South Fallsburg, NY, regrets to announce his death on November 16, 2012. He died of cancer, at his home, after a short illness.
Born in New York City in 1925 to immigrant parents Abe and Helen Weitzman, Efrem grew to be a true renaissance man. In his youth he studied dance and art. He attended The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. He was a recipient of both the Tiffany and Fullbright Awards. Efrem went on to have a long and distinguished career as an artist and designer of interior spaces; his work being commissioned in religious, municipal and corporate buildings across the country.
Efrem also had a long standing passion for stories and story telling. Over many years he delighted his children: Dara Klassel, Chaya Spencer, Charney (Dhruva) Weitzman, and grandchildren: Naomi and Susanna Klassel, Daniel and Sophia Spencer and Oisin and Aine Weitzman, with the stories he would create for them. He recently published one set of these stories, Daniel, Chicken and Elephant.
Besides his art and design work, Efrem also spent time as a college lecturer, therapist and professional story teller. He also composed poetry and song.
Since the 1970s he has been involved in the practice of Siddha Yoga Meditation. He spent a great deal of his time pursuing this path and doing volunteer work, seva, for SYDA Foundation. In recent years Efrem has also become a practitioner of the Japanese hands-off healing method, Semei.
Efrem is survived by his wife of 52 years, Nandini Susan Weitzman; three children, six grandchildren and two great grandchildren, and by his brother, Bernard Weitzman and his family.
Through all his work and many endeavors Efrem has touched a vast array of people with his warmth and ever-present wit and humor. He will be sorely missed.
A public memorial for all family and friends is planned for sometime in 2013. The family has requested that instead of flowers, a donation may be made to SYDA Foundation (www.siddhayoga.org), Hospice of Orange and Sullivan Counties (www.hospiceoforange.org), or Semei Foundation (www.semeifoundation.org).

If your lady wears this dress, she will definitely attract gazes and stares! It enhances all the right body parts and hides flaws. This is a dress definitely made for the curvier women. I didn't think much of this dress when I saw it on the hanger, on the mannequin, and even the model doesn't do it justice. You have to try it on to understand what I said. Top notch design and quality: color combo makes it pop (you will definitely stand out in the crowd), thick, lined, holds you in well, fits true to bebe dress sizes but if you like a snug fit go down a size because bebe dresses always stretch after a few wear. If you can rock this number mid thighs or lower, the cut of the dress is even conservative enough for the office (with tights on).

How Fast ?
How fast should your string of shots be in between trigger pulls to be combat effective into a bad guy trying to kill you . Take into account newer people not soldiers who would have much more adrenaline during a fatal shooting. Any ideas people ?

As fast as you can shoot accurately so long as you stop shooting when you have stopped the villain.

I don't think there is an explicit rate of fire. This would be a highly individual thing, and generally I would say as fast as you can while maintaining accuracy and precision. Granted in any scenario, I would say being as fast as Jerry Miculek is probably over kill, but so few people attain that level of proficiency I think the point is moot.

Too some extent the weapon/ trigger is going to be a limit. Triggers with short reset are the easiest to master. The next limitation is probably recoil.

If my self conscious has the sights aligned on the target...as fast as my sub conscious can press the trigger. It takes around 50,000 shots, for a new shooter, to teach his sub conscious to press the trigger. Five shots into one vital part of the body is "effective" --- but five shots into various vital parts on the trunk of the body, is much more "efficient".
Of course... the longer the distance to the target --- the longer it will take to make the shot. Occasionally.... I'm a spray and pray type of guy---at least on the gun range.

JimPage said it all.
Shoot swiftly, shoot accurately, and shoot repeatedly, until the threat has ended. Then, and only then, stop shooting. Additional speed and accuracy will come with additional practice.

I find that I can accurately deliver two aimed shots with a 0.35 seconds all day at 5 yards. When I'm "in practice" I can get it to 0.25. When I'm having a "good day" I can crowd 0.20 seconds.
If this is what you can do consistently in practice; it is likely that you will do what you practice if the time comes.
A shot timer can really bring the reality of how slow or fast you are.

I've practiced (and still do) getting my gun out and on target, then added a side step staying on target. I really don't know how long it takes me to get of 2 shots. I work on the accuracy of the two shots, 1 between the nipples, 1 to the nose. So far after about 10 months I can draw, step, fire or draw, fire and hit where I aim with .40 and .38spc. Still needs a lotta work, you never get fast enough, so I don't time myself. I just want to hit what I aim at.

When I first started bullseye shooting my coach kept telling me it isn't how fast I empty the gun that counts its how many of my rounds get on target. There is no prize for making your gun empty before the other guy does. That carried over to my rifle shooting big bore and small bore and then the other pistol games like PPC. I know lots of guys who can and do shoot faster then I do but not near as many who shoot better than I do. As the previous posters already iterated slow down and make sure you are hitting the target and just keep shooting that fast. Speed comes with practice, not from trying to force it.

I saw the old thread warning on this, but thought some actual times might be appreciated.
Last IDPA club match we went to, we shot a mini-stage where on signal, the shooter drew and fired two rds at 3 yds, fast as possible, with object being two center hits.
I think the winner was at 1.08 maybe, with a single action 9mm. I shot it in 1.42 with a DA .45 Sig, and bamaboy with a G17 did it in 1.51.
Most everybody was near 1.5, not everybody shot it clean. I think one guyshot it in .83, but was not centered.

I hope this isn't considered thread-jacking, but think a bit about what your actual goal is: To stay alive and unharmed.
In that context, shooting quickly and accurately is ONE part of the equation. It makes no sense to shoot someone 6 times in 3 seconds if that means you are soaking up ANY rounds in return. Even a single poor "peripheral" shot on his part, which strikes your femoral or brachial artery, is likely a death sentence. If he's out of the fight in 10 seconds, but you bleed to death over the next 90 ... that's not a "win".
My opinion is that you shoot as quickly and accurately as you can, while first moving or otherwise acting to avoid getting shot/stabbed/beaten to death in return.

I can shoot a controlled pair with a split of about .38 seconds without warming up usually. After a little warming up it gets closer to .28 seconds.
A hammered pair that is on target out to about 15 yards I get about .16 second splits.

I'm with Old Grump on this one...
Dont be in such a hurry to empty your gun... Each situation will be different. The challange will be to stay aware of your surroundings, and the effect the rounds you put out and the perps reaction.
I dont do double taps... I've always shot, look, shot. look.

"How fast should your string of shots be in between trigger pulls to be combat effective into a bad guy trying to kill you. ?" [funtoshoot]
Depends. If an active shooter is farther out, ie 20 yards or more and you are behind hard cover, you have time, precious seconds. If the assailant is in your face, you do not (police tell me most of their business is conducted at 3 to 8 feet), then you have to shoot as quickly as you can pull the trigger.

That should do.

if the bad guy is coming out of holster at 3-8 feet (interview distance) your pretty screwed at that point if he knows what he is doing. You reaction time to his action at that distance pretty much guarantees you lose.
In the real world at that distance the bad guy wins. If you dont believe me look at presidential assassination attempts history. The gun always gets out - squeaky lynette fromme and sarah jane moore werent successful not because of the USSS quick reaction times it was because they never shot guns.
Andrew jackson assailant pointed it at him and id was unsuccessful because the balls fell out of the gun, Garfield , Mckinnley, Lincoln all pistols all dead, Teddy roosevelt shot by a pistol. and John Hinkley shot Reagan while the USSS was all around him - Bottom Line at that distance - action trumps reaction
Thats why the head of state (HOS) details dont train to draw at that distance if your in the close proximity detail and your next to the bad guy - they go for the gun and trap it and use their IADs to sort it out from there
time between trigger pulls dont mean anything in the big picture - the time you should be training for is the time from the stimulus (ie. pro timer) to the time it takes to come from the holster and put rounds in the kill zone.
My course standard at 7 meters and into the kill zone from the holster for that first shot is under 1 second. My course standard for double tap (controlled pair) is under 1.5. most times hover nearer the one second mark for both shots.

Seems like most people are using target shooting as examples. Shooting at targets and shooting at bad guys are two totally diffrent things. We used simunitions when I went through the police academy and it was so diffrent than stationary targets. With shootings everything happens so fast, its not about lining up sights and perfact trigger pull, its about shooting them before they shoot you, unless like stated above you have distance and cover.

From holstered and snapped to three shots center mass in four seconds is my general training target, there are some variations.

A well-trained younger person can sling more lead than us older guys. However, I have found that with a moderate degree of practice, the average shooter can manage one shot per half second. When you think about it, that's three shots in one second. A shot at the beginning and end of the second and one in the middle.
I once witnessed Tom Campbell of team Smith and Wesson, empty a nine millimeter pistol so quickly that with my back initially turned to him, I thought someone had fired a burst from a sub-machine gun. He's a world-class shooter but it takes enormous practice to maintain that rate of fire.

I think people are more in a hurry to stop any possibility of return fire, and people have realized that one-shot stops don't happen all that often.

Our Carmen has blessed us recently with insightful comments. Let me reprise another Carmen (or at least I think she is not the same).
In the 1940s, the Medical Arts Building on McCallie Avenue in Chattanooga, Tennessee, was one of the tallest buildings in town. My father would park the green Ford (born in 1936, the same year as me) in the parking lot at back and my mother would whizz me up in the elevator to Doctor Starr's office on the fifth floor. This was at a time when doctors still made house calls for serious afflictions, but for minor ailments my mom insisted on dragging us downtown.
The doctor probed my skinny chest with his cold-nosed stethoscope. He prodded my white belly with his rubbery fingers. He peered down my throat with the help of a shiny reflector attached to a strap around his head. "Hmm," he said. Then, "Hmm, hmm." He tilted toward my mother. "He'll be fine in the morning," said Doctor Starr.
And I was.
My soul too needed tending.
The nuns at Our Lady of Perpetual Help School lined us up two-by-two for the march to the church and every-other-week confession. I stood in line outside the confessional, between Billy and Carmen, waiting my turn, and wondering what exactly were my sins. I knew that my acute awareness of cute Carmen was fraught with significance, and possibly sin, but I would have had no idea what to confess. A year or two later I would have a name for it: impure thoughts. "Bless me, Father, I have had impure thoughts 4623 times." Except I wouldn't give the exact number. I usually rounded off at five, a nice compromise between "goody-goody" and "depraved."
But in 1945 it was the usual roster of made-up sins we all confessed: disobedient (four times), told lies (twice), selfish (three times), disrespectful to my parents (twice). That seemed about right. I stepped into the box and the little wooden window slid open, and Father Shea said, "Hmm?" And then, after a silence, "Hmm." I rattled off my sins, received my absolution and penance (five Our Fathers and five Hail Marys), and left the box in a state of grace.
Only to pass cute Carmen going in.

Speeding up Test::WWW::Mechanize tests with clone()
Today I was looking at old automated Perl test based on Test::WWW::Mechanize. It was it testing a complex form. For each of about 10 tests, it loaded the form (with a get_ok() call), and then submitted the form with a variety of input.
Now that we run about 25,000 tests in total in the test suite, I'm always looking for ways to speed up the tests. HTTP calls are relatively slow, so systematic ways to slim them down are attractive.
In this case, I found there was a simple change that I could apply that sped up the particular test by about 28%.
Each time the test was calling get_ok() on the page, it was getting back the same result, which is wasteful. I refactored it like this:
my $base_mech = Test::WWW::Mechanize->new;
Then, everywhere we had a get_ok() call to load the page again, I replaced it with this:
$mech = $base_mech->clone;
Both approaches gave me a Test::WWW::Mechanize object in just the state I desired, but the new approach was must faster.
An alternate approach in a case like that is to submit the form just once to make sure that you've got all the form field names correctly matching up with the processing URI that it submits to. After that, instead of "GETing" the form again and calling submitformok(), just call post_ok() to POST directly to the processing run mode with the appropriate values.
Either approach avoids a lot of unnecessary GET requests in your test suite.
For more tips on speeding up your test suites, come to my talk on topic of speeding up test suites in YAPC in June, 2013 in Austin, Texas.

Alternator acting up
Had to call a friend to bring me a new battery on the lake over the weekend because my alternator wasn't charging the battery. My boat is an 86 with a 351w engine. Put a voltmeter on my friends battery when I got back to the dock and it read 12.8v. Then started the boat up and it settled at 12.8v at idle. Revved the engine to about 3k rpms and it still read 12.8v so I assumed the alternator was shot since the belts were tight. I also tried wiggling all the wires going to and from the alternator while watching the voltmeter but there were no jumps in the voltage.
Since I would likely have to order an alternator, I decided to crack the old one open and see if there were any problems that I could fix quickly and easily. I cleaned everything up. The brushes and commutator looked perfect, all wire connections were solid, and the bearings spun freely. After a bit of degreasing, it looked better inside than outside but I never saw anything wrong with it. Decided to bench test it with an impact gun and was able to get 14.2v from the alternator. I don't know equivalent rpms on the alternator with the impact gun but it appears to work just fine.
Reinstalled the alternator in the boat and the most voltage I get on the boat is 13.2v. There is no difference between idle and 4k rpms.
I was thinking of replacing all the wires going to the alternator but can you guys think of anything else that could be causing problems? Other than perfect pass, nothing else electrical is running on the boat.

Well, as those who've read my blogs--or those who race to catch up now--will know, I've lately quit my job of 16 years in preparation for a move. Actually, my job ends next week, but I'm taking a Vacation of Death right now. The move happens mid-next month. And now I have a new job, starting on July 1! With so much change crammed into one month, what's there to be nervous about?!
(In completely unrelated news, one of my eyelids has grown a mind of its own.)
My kids ask me all the time, "Daddy, what's your favorite _________?"
It's one of my least favorite kinds of questions. Why? Because, simply put, I don't ever think about favorites. I could name a million things that I like very much, but which ones are my favorites? I don't know. Should I? Why do I need favorites? Isn't it enough to know that I like a thing? Why do I need to pause and compare it to every other thing of its type that I've ever experienced and decide
I have two awesome parents. I've looked up to both of them my whole life.
So how do I tell my dad he's being a jerk about something that doesn't directly affect me?
Backstory: My dad is in his mid 70's. He has three brothers, one of whom is his twin. My dad and his twin brother could not be more different. This brother flunked out of school, went into the Army, and was sent to Vietnam. He saw a lot of horrible stuff there, and has major PTSD -- listens to CDs of artillery
So, my son and I decide to take a quick trip up to our cabin to drop off some things, and on the way in the door I glance up and spot a bat. Stupidly, I grabbed a broom and went to shoo it away. Well! There were at least half a dozen bats, and they went everywhere. One of them attached itself to my hip, and as I impulsively swept it off with my hand, I got scratched.
What was to be a fun evening with the boy turned into a three hour trip to the ER, two rabies
In my April blog, I mentioned that my wife and I were preparing to relocate, get new jobs, etc. Well, the relocation bit is about to begin. We listed our house for sale three weeks ago, and just this morning approved an offer.
I'm never quite ready for these things, and although there are so many great times ahead, it's hard to let go of a home without fixating on the past and the might-have-beens. Our nearly-ten-year-old daughter was two years old when we moved in, and our six-year-old

My play is sloppier than usual, but hopefully as I am now doing "Friday Challenge Runs" and soon I will be off of the normal dungeons entirely my play will step up to the level of the stuff I am doing.
That said I don't disagree that balanced dagger/dwarven gauntlets are awesome preps. . .but they aren't really early game, or even mostly mid game for a new player. Even if you "can" get the balanced dagger early it requires a lvl of skill that someone who is in the early game for the first time just isn't going to have. That goes for most of the silver challenges. I tend to look at them as being on the hard end of the hard dungeon spectrum putting them at the late mid-game at best. YOU can get them early. Most people who watch my vids now probably will not.
All you have to do to get the fine sword is pay bezer, and it was in my locker for and often used until literally I was going after just vicious dungeons. Is it the best prep? No. But it is almost universally a "good" prep, and very rarely a bad choice.

24ways is back. Now I'll have to start staying up until midnight again every night to read it as soon as it 'comes out'.
@Dave Sparks: Don't bring me into the argument (no wait… you did). From working with RGBa on the recent CannyBill project (and others), I found that IE7 would choke on the rgba properties.
It would apply the first RGB values, then choke when it read the RGBA values. Because it understood the second color property (but not values) it would revert to browser default. Hex values on the other hand seemed to be fine.
Of course I could be wrong (as I usually only give IE a minute or two) and there are much cleverer people here who deal with IE much more regularly than I do (poor souls).

The LAPD is in mourning after the third deadly crash involving an LAPD officer in two months.
"Once again our hearts are broken," Los Angeles Police Protective League President Tyler Izen said in a statement. "This is a hard time for the LAPD family."
The latest death occurred Saturday morning.
Two officers were making a U-turn to follow a car moving at high speed when they were broadsided by an SUV about 3:55 a.m. near the intersection of Senator Avenue and Anaheim Street, said LAPD Cmdr. Andrew Smith.
The officer killed in the collision, 32-year-old Roberto Sanchez, was a six-year veteran assigned to the Harbor area, police said. His partner was in critical but stable condition at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center on Saturday. He is expected to survive.
Sanchez was the third LAPD officer killed this year. In March, an officer was killed in a crash involving a truck in Beverly Hills. In April, an LAPD motorcycle officer died after being hit by a suspected impaired driver.
Los Angeles police investigators are still trying to determine the circumstances leading up to Saturday's collision.
Speaking at a morning news conference, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said that many important questions remained unanswered. "Only two individuals know exactly what the officers were doing," he said. "One is severely injured. The other one is deceased."
By midmorning, Smith said investigators had been able to string together only a "really, really preliminary" idea of what occurred.
Based on the positions of the vehicles and the account of the severely injured officer, he said, it is believed that the patrol car at the time was following a white Camaro traveling east on Anaheim Street.
The Camaro and the patrol car both made U-turns. The third vehicle involved in the accident, a Chevy Tahoe, also heading east, plowed into the driver's side of the patrol car as the officers were completing their turn, Smith said.
He said the department did not yet know whether the patrol car's sirens or lights were on at the time, or whether drugs or alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
The driver of the SUV who hit the patrol car fled the scene on foot. The crash was so severe that the patrol car radio was inoperable and the surviving officer had to use his cellphone to call for help, Smith said.
Police located and detained a "person of interest" about a mile from the accident, he said, but no arrests have been made in connection with the crash.
No other information was available about the individual, who may have been the driver or a passenger in the vehicle.
"We're trying to ascertain his involvement in the situation," Smith said, noting that because the cars involved were destroyed, investigators will have to look at video footage from the patrol car to figure out what happened.
"It's really tough," he said.

Graded Kasia
Added Jul 5, 2012
Adelaide, Australia
I had to grade the pattern up three sizes – it wasn't too tricky, I basically added 3cm to the sides, and 1.5cm to the other edges (of pockets, etc). I've not graded anything up before, and I didn't have any trouble, although I wasn't sure it would fit until right at the end.
As others have said before, I would dispense with the front flap zip next time. It's a clever idea, but it just adds bulk and work, and I had to put in press studs at each end because it stuck out, since my belly curves around there. There's a back seam anyway for the slit, and invisible zipper there would be fine and mean the front was a bit neater.
This is my most complex project to date, and there are a few wonky bits, but overall I am very pleased with it. I will definitely sew this again, I'd love to try out different looks and variations in fabric. The pattern would make a nice base for a generic pencil skirt, too.
Better photos to come.

A White Plains, N.Y., newspaper has removed an online interactive map that detailed who has handgun permits in two counties. The posting of the map on the paper's website last month had sparked outrage and prompted changes in state law to give permit holders greater privacy.
The Journal News map showed the names and addresses of people with pistol permits licensed by Westchester and Rockland counties.
Journal News President and Publisher Janet Hasson said Friday the decision to take down the map came in response to a provision in New York's new gun law that was passed last week. The law also gives permit holders a way to request that their personal information be kept private.
Hasson criticized the new rule as overly broad, but added in a letter that "we are not deaf to voices who have said that new rules should be set for gun permit data."
Still, a snapshot of the map -- without the names and addresses -- has been kept on the paper's website "to remind the community that guns are a fact of life we should never forget," she wrote.

rushy brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
2 Gewinner wurden aus 56 Designs von 20 Designern ausgewählt.
We need a professional homepage designed for an ecommerce website. We will code the page. We just want a good design!
JSM Imports
Desired Color Scheme:
No specified colour range but design must look clean.
Desired Style:
Modern, professional, contemporary, trustworthy
Accepted File Formats:
Standard Web Formats (.jpg, .gif or .png); Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
We are looking for a logo to represent our company name of 'JSM Imports'. We specialise in the importation and distribution of motorcycles, mopeds and quad bikes. We are looking for a logo that captures both the 'imports' and 'motorcycle/moped/quad' themes very well.
Some ideas could be arrows similar to recycle arrows going around the text to represent 'imports' and tyres or tyre tracks or even engines to represent 'motorcycles etc.'.
We do not have colours in mind but need the logo to look clean and professional. It must also be vector designed for print as well so Illustrator files would be a huge bonus.
We need the homepage of an ecommerce webstore designed. We will code it in. The website must match the logo. We also require a certain look which I will hopefully explain well for you in the points below.
Header Section:
Will include a logo to the left, a telephone number prominently placed to the right of the logo along with links (with icons) for 'view cart', 'my account' and 'contact us'.
There should also be a search bar in the header but it could go in the line below which I will explain now. Below the logo and cart links I want a navigation bar for text links.
This should obviously fit the design. You could put the search box in this navbar. The text links I want in the navbar are:
About JSM Imports Support Scooters Motorcycles Quads Promotions
A good example of how this technique is used can be seen in these sites:
http://www.voodoopc.com (obviously with a little less in height on the promo image)
Below the navbar I would like a promotional banner/header that can be changed with one image change or have flash loaded into the space.
The header should flow into the main content nicely.
The content section will be broken down into two distinct sections. One I will call 'main content', where the cart will actually appear and the other I will call 'right bar' The main content will make up 80% of the width of the page and the right bar the remainder.
Main Content:
In this section I want the bikes to be displayed in a quick-click way, like which can be seen at http://www.125scooters.cc . Obviously in this site design I would like each bike to be in flow with the design and in its own box or icon perhaps. The bike images should be large enough to grab the attention similar to those seen at: http://www.scooter.co.uk
You can use the images on http://www.125scooters.cc to represent this in your design. I think if you intitially set the design up to show 9 bikes (3 rows of 3), each with their own or matching boxes, borders, or surrounds, that would give me room to expand if neccessary in the future. The boxes/icons should contain the picture of the bike, room for the price, a brief description and a 'more info' button/text with perhaps an arrow encouraging the user to click.
In the right bar I want a few different 'promotion boxes' designed in. A good example of this tactic can be seen in this image
You can see 3 'boxes' to the right of the main content that are promoting various things on their site. I want something similar fitted into this design and the starting promotions you can work with are:
1) Win a Nintendo DS by subscribing to our newsletter
2) Best price Guarantee
3) Free helmet with every scooter purchase in february
In fact, use those above as well as the main content boxes you see on http://www.radiatorstyle.co.uk as they are pretty much spot on.
And then just draw me up some blank boxes for use at a later time if I find anything. I would prefer in each of these boxes room for both textual content as well as either icons or images.
I would also prefer it if these boxes weren't all identical (slightly different colours
perhaps for each or other similar means of differentiating one box from another without losing the flow of the design).
I would also like to show users how secure the site is and what payment methods are available like http://www.marshysmotorcycles.com either in this rightbar or somewhere else on the site that is in plain sight.
I would like the footer to include all the usual terms and conditions related information and copyright etc. I would also like the opportunity to include some sitewide links in the footer to help users quickly reach certain categories of the shop. These should not ook like an accessory to the site but look part of it and fit in nicely.
This contest was originally listed in multiple categories:
- Logo Design
- Web Page Design

My son is 2 weeks and 4 days old.
He latched just fine in the hospital, but when we brought him home is when everything went down hill.
He lost 10% of his body weight (extreme end of 'normal' range) by his 2 day well baby check with the lactation consultant.
He just now is back up to his birth weight. It turns out.. he isn't moving milk as well as he should be. He latches just fine, it's just that he can't move milk. He was spending a massive amount of time at the breast (in excess of 40 minutes, at one point 2 hours) getting minimal milk (1/2 an ounce after 30 minutes) and so he wasn't putting on weight as well, either.
Anyway, the lactation consultant can't for the life of her, figure out why he still isn't pulling in milk from my breast, and is considering an SNS.
(We've been through a breast shield and are currently exclusively pumping and bottle feeding him expressed breast milk for the sake of getting his weight back up.)
Is there anyone else out there that maybe had something like this go on with their LO?
I really don't want to go around feeding my kid with an SNS. :/ I just want him to be happy, healthy, and at the breast!

» About the Sunshine Portal:
The information presented on the transparency portal comes from numerous data sources, including the Statewide Human Resource, Accounting and Management Reporting (SHARE) system, the State Land Office, the Department of Finance and Administration, and the State Investment Council. SHARE is the state of New Mexico's financial and human resource computer system. All agencies except the New Mexico State Fair use SHARE to account for all financial transactions. Human resource transactions for all state agencies are recorded in SHARE. Agencies that use subsidiary systems to capture more granular information on agency-specific data post financial transactions to SHARE using a journal entry. That granular information may be obtained from the agency that owns the data and the system in which it resides so long as it is public information and not protected by privacy or confidentiality laws. All payments for goods and services are reported in SHARE. Signed official copies of contracts for goods and services can be obtained directly from the agency contracting for the service. Payments for investment-type services are required to be made directly to the investment companies and can no longer be paid out of the revenue earned before the revenue is transferred to the state.
