Monitoring Dynamic Multi-Step Transactions
By Dawn Parzych
Last week, I tried to book a hotel for an upcoming business trip. I logged into the travel portal entered the city and dates of travel and clicked search. Then, I waited and waited and waited and waited, yet nothing happened. I tried again; same results. At this point, I gave up and moved onto other tasks, conceding to the fact that I would have to come back and try again later. If this had been for personal travel, I would have moved onto another site to book my room and a sale would have been lost. As this was for business, I had to use the corporate travel portal so there was no lost sale, only my lost time. I was more frustrated by this than if I could have just gone to another site.
Knowing how your home page and other critical pages perform for end users is important to understand the digital experience. But, your website is made up of more than discrete pages—in many instances, users are doing more than visiting a single page and are actually following a sequence of pages. For example, Amazon experienced a 3-hour outage last June. The outage didn't affect their homepage, but it did their search functionality. Users trying to search for a product or browse a category encountered errors. Ensuring a user can complete any and every action is just as important as monitoring individual pages.
Monitoring multi-step transactions in addition to individual pages is critical to identifying such outages. Transaction monitoring can be more complicated than single page monitoring when determining which parameters should be used. Different search terms may yield different results based on application logic or the APIs that are being used to pull information. Using the same search term may not provide enough insight but it isn't feasible to test every single search term. A balance needs to be found.
Catchpoint offers customers the ability to quickly create multi-step transactions through a selenium based Chrome script recorder. The script recorder makes it easy to create and upload a transaction to detect and resolve issues with key business processes before they impact end users. Logic can be inserted into scripts to choose different search terms, select valid travel dates, or to always click on the second item returned in the search results by dynamically cycling through a list of terms, dates or numbers.
In addition to the above, custom dimensions for reporting called "Tracepoints", can be created. This provides the ability to better visualize the data, and quickly identify problem areas. For example, if you are using three different search terms a Tracepoint can be used to view the performance of each term individually, to compare performance and quickly identify if issues
The easier it is to visualize data from complex and customized data sets, the faster it will be to find the answers you are looking for and resolve problems. Take a look at what components of your application are being monitored. Will you know if an API or database stops returning search results? What impact will this have on users and your business? Knowing that all key business transactions through an application are running efficiently leads to a better digital experience and lower frustration for everybody.

My introduction to sex happened twenty-seven years ago, during the summer holidays. Holidays were usually spent at home as our family didn't have the cash to go away. I had developed a crush on a neighborhood boy who lived a couple of houses away in the street behind mine. Our houses were separated by a narrow lane way that ran behind the rear of the properties to allow access to back...Read On

My arms were tied out to the sides of me, with thin rope, they were stretched tight, painfully so. My legs were tied spread apart too.

You come in every morning as you always do. Bringing me my coffee, and saying hi. Always looking outstanding. Sitting close to me as if tempting me to do as I please.

After a long restful weekend, (to short like always) it was monday again, and I stood up with the joyful feeling to go back to work.

An Interview With Antique Sewing Machine Collector Harry Berzack
Part II
By Maribeth Keane and Jessica Lewis,
Collectors Weekly Staff
ISMACS News
Issue 98
June 2010
Harry Berzack, co-host of the 2009 Charlotte Convetion, is a collector of 19th-century and pre-World War II sewing machines. Unlike many collectors in this field, Harry's 500- piece collection is international in scope. Recently, the online publication Collectors' Weekly spoke with Harry about his antique machine collection, the history of sewing machines, their uses and the major manufacturers.
Collectors Weekly: Do you collect modern machines or do you stop at a specific time period?
Berzack: The latest machines I have are from the 1940s. One of them is from the Second World War. Singer came out with a surgical sewing machine used in the field to stitch wounds. There aren't many of them around, so that's worthwhile. Another machine I have from the '40s is still in its original packing case with the label on it where it was railed to a customer in Munster, Indiana. But I would say that probably 90 percent of my machines pre-date 1900.
CW: Were sewing machines first used in the home?
Berzack: Actually, no. There's no one inventor of the machine. Different people had different ideas. There was a Frenchman whose first machines went into a factory in Paris—the workers were so upset because they thought that they were going to lose jobs. So the earliest machines were really designed for factories, but it very soon became a household thing.
A lot of the companies didn't necessarily market under their own name. The department stores had departments selling sewing machines. Sears Roebuck had machines with decals with their name on it. Those machines could've been made by one of three or four different factories, and if you're really into it, you can work out, "Well, this sewing machine was made for Montgomery Ward and this was made for Macy's." There are giveaways as to who the actual maker was but there are thousands of names out there.
CW: How did Singer become so well-known?
Berzack: Because of marketing, not invention. They were not great innovators, but they were unbelievable marketers. They bought people out. If you're making a million machines a year and you have a factory in the States and a factory in England and you control your own distribution, you get into a very strong position and it's not easy for people to fight you or dislodge you.
A lot of people copied them. The classic Singer machine in the early days, the mass-market machine, was the Singer Model 12, and there were literally hundreds of people who knocked it off in one way or another. There was a tremendous amount of copying. There was some licensing, but most of it was illegal copying. In fact, there were even people who copied the Singer emblem, the "S" emblem. People tried to jump on the bandwagon.
Singer owned its own companies all over the world. They have never badged a machine, which is putting someone else's name on, and they control their own distribution. They have their own subsidiary companies and factories in probably 20 to 30 countries, like Italy, Brazil, Scotland, Australia, South Africa, Taiwan. They had a big presence in Russia, too, prior to the revolution. You can take out an atlas and wherever your finger falls, Singer probably had a factory there.
CW: How did the machine evolve from the 1800s to the 1900s?
Berzack: The early machines tried to replicate the movement of a hand pulling a needle all the way through a piece of fabric and then pushing it back the other side, like you would hand stitch today. Then came the advent of the chain stitch machine and everything depended on the needle forming a loop and either catching the loop or having a shuttle go between the needle and the outer thread through the loop to capture the thread. Then the needle comes up and goes through the top of the fabric again. That became the basis of sewing. It became a matter of, "How does that loop get formed?"
The next thing was, as I said, the shuttle moving through the loop. You had what was called a round bobbin, which is basically the way lock-stitches form today. The earliest bobbins were Wheeler & Wilson and that goes back to the 1860s. Today you don't have shuttles at all because everything is either bobbin or loop or chain-stitch machines.
CW: How many different parts are there to a sewing machine?
That's like asking how long is a road. There are some very simple machines that aren't very effective and don't have many parts. A modern industrial sewing machine could have 1,500 to 2,000 parts in it, but you could also find a machine with 20 parts. They're not very effective, but they exist.
In the early machines, which were invariably made out of cast iron, one turn of the handle gave you one stitch. One of the first innovations was to gear it so that one turn of the handle gave you two stitches so you'd get double the production. Today you have diecast, aluminum and plastic machines that are capable of doing 9,000 stitches a minute.
CW: Are repair parts still available for older machines? Berzack:
No. People who are really into it have to know a little engineering and make their own parts. If you use an antique machine, then you're basically using one of the massproduced machines and their parts are easier to find. Singer made a million machines a year of the class 12, so they probably made about 10 million machines total and there could well be half a million of them that are still running. It's comparatively easy to pick up an old machine for parts to adapt or modify. But the very old stuff? If you're missing something, that's it.
CW: When you collect sewing machines, are there specific things you look for?
Berzack: I look for rarity, condition, technical differences and what would have been an innovation at the time. I try to fill holes in my collection with rarer machines. There are rare machines that come up every now and again on eBay. Sometimes I get them and sometimes someone's more generous than I am. It's very difficult today to find machines in antique shops or flea markets. Odd ones still pitch up but not as much as they used to.
A lot of the antique shops have no idea how to value these things. Say there was a Singer that was patented in 1860. Because it's old, it would be marked at, say, 300 bucks, but the value of it is probably closer to $25 because Singer made half a million of them that year so they're not rare. They assume that because it's old, it must be valuable.
Every sewing machine collector I know has a machine that they overpaid for and a machine that they're sorry they sold.
As soon as you go beyond the basic machines from the 1900s, what are called the quilters' machines, you have to start educating yourself or you're going to hit the poor house before you know where it is, and you'll have nothing to show for it. Anyone who doesn't come to the shows is going to miss a great opportunity to educate themselves.

Nike Basketball @ Masaryk Towers NYC
The heartbeat of New York City sports runs alongside the sound of the bouncing basketballs beating against hardwood floors and concrete courts. It's a sport that flourished in tune with the growth of the city over the last few decades, with focused epicenters in the inner city sectors, like in the Masaryk Towers in the Lower East Side. Unfortunately, the indoor basketball court at Masaryk Towers laid dormant for years, until Nike took it upon itself to resuscitate the once-booming hotbed of basketball culture into a 24/7 at-your-service indoor basketball court. Nike presents Nike Basketball @ Masaryk Towers; it features a fully renovated indoor court, with top-shelf training equipment and facilities that will help you stay on top of your game. This invite-only basketball space allows attendees to show up in street-clothes, with Nike providing all the necessary gear for an energizing b-ball session with its three on-site trainers. Access to the Masaryk is given to select individuals, with appointments made with the Masaryk concierge, and if you are one of the lucky members that have a coveted pass to check out the space, you can bring up to 19 of your pals. Nike Basketball @ Masaryk Towers will be open until April 2012, but we've got a first-hand look at this private basketball club and all the amenities below for you to check out.

Home Sweet Home is a phrase that you should be able to use even when you're away from home. Increasing theft, vandalism and break-ins have resulted in most of us getting paranoid about the safety of our home.

Kids Saw Us Having Sex, Oh God! and Tarzan/Spidee at The Led Zephyr (Sihanoukville, Cambodia)
So, it's time for some "adult" time. Eh-hem! Yes! Finally! We forget how fun it is to have our own bedroom, didn't we? And considering that in mid-October in Siem Reap Orazi woke up in the middle of the night (and didn't make a sound) and heard and watched us! (OMG! Repeat: OMG!) In the morning he asks me if I had sex with dad last, made 'the sounds' of sex that you really, really, really don't want your ten year old son to make, and said so casually, "I've heard that sound all over the world, and NOW I know what it was! You and dad were having sex!"
Joy. Let me repeat that: joy. So, want to save money and share a room, but so not wanting our kids watching us. OMG! (did I already say that?) and all day walking around with his sisters doing grunting/moaning sounds and laughing hysterically. Oh no, so not where I want to be in my life right now, so not the sex education or the images (dear God! The IMAGES!) I want my kids to have in their minds!
So, here's our OWN room, which I believe we will work hard to have from now on. Oh, and you'll die laughing at Tarzan/Spidee/Kobi scaling the walls, breaking the bed, and getting the kingdom ready for what will be 🙂
Got any really embarrassing children sex stories. We have that time our kids were mesmerized by statues in Chan Chan, Peru of women giving men blow jobs. (JOy!) But that was so much easier than having them watch us! Share away. You know you have a great story to tell us. And give us a google plus one, ok? Facebook share, and the rest helps us directly fund our way. 🙂
STILL mortified (I'll get over it. I know), Gabi

Discussion in 'UPS Discussions' started by cheryl, Apr 10, 2015.
Someone forwarded this to us on facebook asking for help finding the owner.
There is a Don Akins on twitter. @jughead1951
He is probably retired, why else would you put 32 years and not a milestone year.
Put in 32 years of service and get a $4.00 pocket knife.
Posted on our fb page.
Yes he did give them out. I have one of those myself.
If you live in Tennessee you got to have your pocket knife. I'll give a reward to whoever finds it.
He sounds like a sharp guy.
In fact, cutting edge.
Look sharp. Don't get cut.
Did you notify Donna?
Razor sharp there Hoak.
That FB post doesn't make sense. He had a box of them, gave them out, and knows when one gets lost?
Could it be that the person who was given the knife let Don know that he had lost it?
Possible, not likely.
This post by the original FB Poster has circulated wildly and Ol' Don saw it.
OK, makes sense. That was a poorly constructed post, not that mine are always coherent.
They're better than mine.
He stabbed at getting a slice of the Facebook sharing but then realized their was no point.
Separate names with a comma.

I have been told I have high cholesterol. What is normal and how can I get there?
Reaching your cholesterol goal is one of the most important things you can do for your health. Hyperlipidemia, or high cholesterol, is directly associated with increased risk of heart disease, coronary artery disease, stroke, and heart attack.
Your cholesterol level, found through a simple blood test, includes Total Cholesterol, HDL (known as good cholesterol), Triglycerides (a type of fat found in your blood), and LDL (known as bad cholesterol).
Normal range for most adults is Total Cholesterol (125-200mg/dL), HDL (>40mg/dL), Triglycerides (<150mg/dL) and LDL (<130mg/dL).
However, patients with coronary heart disease or diabetes should aim for an LDL of <100mg/dL; patients with diabetes and known heart disease should aim for an LDL of <70mg/dL.
Ways to lower your cholesterol include lifestyle modifications such as eating a heart-healthy diet—reduce saturated fat (especially trans fat) and salt intake, doing at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day—walk, bike, swim, jog, dance—whatever you love to do, do it, reducing stress, not smoking, and getting enough sleep.
Natural supplements, such as Omega 3 fatty acids from fish oil, vitamin E, and antioxidants will help. Also, various medications can lower blood cholesterol levels. The types of medications include statins, selective cholesterol absorption inhibitors, resins (also known as bile acid-binding drugs), fibrates, and niacin.
For the best possible results, you should sit down and talk with your family doctor. Discuss your specific cholesterol goals and how to reach them.

It seems the older I get, the more I keep forgetting. What can I do to find out if I have Alzheimer's?
Genetic risk factors, including the apoE gene, E4, can be tested for Alzheimer's dementia. Other risk factors for memory loss include sleep apnea, depression, alcohol or drug abuse, certain types of cancer and cancer fighting treatments, smoking and cerebral vascular disease.
High homocysteine levels can indirectly lead to memory loss, as well as low estrogen levels in women and low testosterone levels in men. It is important to sit down and talk with your family doctor to discuss and assess your memory loss, to make sure you are utilizing preventative measures, such as controlling high blood pressure and diabetes, and to help prevent any further memory loss.

Ask Dr. Leavitt--I have high blood pressure. What is normal blood pressure and how can I get there? SHARE »
I've been told I have high blood pressure. What is normal blood pressure and what can I do to get there?
Normal blood pressure is <120/80mmHg.
Prehypertension is 120-139/80-89mmHg.
Stage 1 hypertension is 140-159/90-99mmHg.
Stage 2 hypertension is >=160/100mmHg.
Persistent hypertension is one of the risk factors for stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and arterial aneurysm, and is a leading cause of chronic kidney failure. Moderate elevation of arterial blood pressure leads to shortened life expectancy.
Dietary and lifestyle changes can improve blood pressure control and decrease the risk of associated health complications, although drug treatment may prove necessary in patients for whom lifestyle changes prove ineffective or insufficient. Here are some excellent ways to lower your blood pressure:
Medicine can serve as a temporary way to keep your blood pressure normalized until your lifestyle changes serve to lower blood pressure on their own. Be sure to sit down and talk with your family doctor about getting your blood pressure to normal. It can add years to your life and life to your years!

Ask Dr. Leavitt--I have high cholesterol and was just put on a statin. Is there anything else I can try? SHARE »
My doctor started me on a statin drug for high cholesterol, but I've heard about bad side effects with this type of medicine. Is there anything else I can try?
In treating high cholesterol, there are many factors to consider. Treatment depends on which part of the cholesterol is high (LDL, HDL, Triglycerides, Total Cholesterol), how high it is, and what your cholesterol goals are. Statins are the most commonly prescribed drugs for treating high cholesterol. In my practice I prescribe them for patients with very high total cholesterol and very high LDL, commonly known as 'bad cholesterol'.
One possible side effect of statins is rhabdomyolysis, which is the breakdown of muscle tissue. Patients who experience a severe muscle cramp, should discontinue the medication immediately. Statins can also lead to liver damage, therefore, blood tests are needed every three months when statin therapy is initially started to monitor liver function.
Additional effective treatments include other classes of cholesterol drugs and omega-3 fatty acid supplements, which not only help lower total and LDL cholesterol but can also raise the HDL or good cholesterol. Statins are very good drugs for lowering cholesterol, but there are other types of medicine to help regulate cholesterol when statins cause serious side effects.
Talk to your family doctor and work together as a team to create the best plan to reach your cholesterol goals. It's important to tailor your treatment to what works best for you and your specific cholesterol needs.

I have been reading about early-onset dementia. What exactly is it?
Symptoms of Alzheimer's dementia include subtle memory failure, confusion, poor judgment, language difficulties, and agitation. There are several effective medications, along with lifestyle modifications and natural therapies, that can slow the progression of the disease and newer therapies are currently under investigation.
According to both the Mayo Clinic and Harvard Medical School there is no evidence to date that early-onset dementia has any more rapid progression than regular onset Alzheimer's. Patients with either early-onset or Alzheimer's dementia can live a long, productive, and active life.
Your family doctor can check for both types of dementia with a simple mini-mental status exam. Be sure to sit down and have a good discussion with your family doctor about any symptoms you have.

I am hearing a lot of talk about Vitamin D3; why is it important to check my level?
In recent years, there has been an increase in Vitamin D deficiency. Studies report that nearly half of the U.S. population suffers from lack of Vitamin D. So why is having enough Vitamin D important? Without enough Vitamin D, calcium in our diet cannot be absorbed, thus leading to osteomalacia in adults, and rickets in children, both of which are bone thinning and deforming disorders.
Lack of Vitamin D has been linked with depression and immune system dysfunction. So if you're the person who is always catching the latest cold/sinus infection/24 hour bug going around, Vitamin D deficiency may be to blame.
The prefrontal cortex of the brain is also affected by Vitamin D deficiency, leading to poor planning of complex cognitive behaviors and decision making. Vitamin D can help slow the progression of Alzheimer's dementia by helping the immune system fight dangerous amyloid proteins.
Making sure you have enough Vitamin D can improve muscle function and help prevent diabetes and cancer (most notably pancreatic cancer). Vitamin D levels can be checked with a simple blood test. Make sure that your active Vitamin D level is checked (25-hydroxy-cholecalciferol). If your levels are low, a Vitamin D3 supplement is now recommended at 2000 IU per day according to the National Institute of Health. Blood levels are then usually checked every 3 to 6 months to track your progress, making sure you reach the optimal level for your health. Be sure to sit down and talk with your family doctor about how to reach your Vitamin D3 goal.

Q. As I have gotten older I notice I bruise easier than I use to. Sometimes I'll have a bruise on my arm and not even remember bumping it on anything. Is this something to be concerned about?
A. Many times people will wonder, "Now when did I do that?" as they look at a dark blue mark on their arm. If you bruise easily, you are not alone. As we age, bruising can become more common. One reason for this is because skin tends to thin with age. Sun damaged skin bruises easily and genetics can take some of the blame--some families just tend to bruise easier than others. Also, some medications, such as blood thinners, gout medicine, arthritis medications, and steroids, can result in bruising easily.
Usually bruising easily isn't a sign of anything serious, but sometimes it indicates another problem that may require a professional medical care.
Bruises are caused by the breakage of blood vessels under the skin. When a blow to the area causes these vessels to break, blood leaks out and causes the "black and blue" appearance we call a bruise. The harder you're hit, the darker and larger the bruise will be, but sometimes even little bumps can cause significant bruises.
Sometimes bruising easily is a symptom of a lack of vitamins or problems with clotting. If you have never bruised easily before but suddenly find yourself dealing with a myriad of bruises, you may want to call your family doctor. The same is true if your bruises are especially painful or tend to be large and you can't remember bumping yourself. Bleeding elsewhere (nose or gums) in addition to bruising also points to the need for medical attention.

Spotted Ms. Sherawat at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles wearing the same Balmain inspired pink Bebe Dress that we first saw on Kangana Ranaut. Not that we are a fan of the pink dress but can tell you one thing right away, Ms. Ranaut definitely wears it better. Egad at Mallika's pointy-ankle-strap sandals.

3:30pm- 6:30pm
7333 Milnor St
Live at the Dump: Talking Trash with Tom Sachs and Nato Thompson
Talking Trash invites sculptor Tom Sachs and Creative Time artistic director Nato Thompson—two exciting and original voices in contemporary arts— to use the dump as a platform for discourse about material sourcing, sustainable practices, and the dual identity of "found materials" as trash and as treasure. The talk will be followed by a hot dog hangout (bbq) in the yard at RAIR.
Tom Sachs is an artist known for his use of bricolage techniques: hobbling together everyday materials like plywood, foam core, duct tape and hot glue with collected, re-purposed and re-signified objects, Sachs fabricates playful sculptures and installations that are obsessively crafted yet show evidence of the history of their raw materials, and of the artist's labor. Prominent examples include Hasselblad (2009), Apollo LEM (2007), Chabako- tea utensils (2015).
Nato Thompson leads the commission and presentation of ambitious public art projects by Creative Time — an arts organization based in New York City that is guided by three core values: that art matters, that artists' voices are important in shaping society, and that public spaces are places for creative and free expression. Acclaimed Creative Time projects in recent years include Tribute in Light, the twin beacons of light that illuminated lower Manhattan six months after 9/11, Paul Chan's production of Waiting for Godot in New Orleans, and the recent Fly By Night performance by Duke Riley.
"Tom has been working with junk for a long time now. He is obsessive with it. He adores it. And he has done some pretty phenomenal things with it. It will be amazing to sit in a pile of (beautiful) trash and talk with him!" -Nato Thompson
This event is free (!) with RSVP required. Get a hot dog and a drink for $2. Talking Trash is the culminating public event of RAIR: Live at the Dump, a program series that has brought interactive, site-specific programming to RAIR's home base in Northeast Philadelphia throughout this Spring.

Dear friends of 'old-school-bodhráns' :)
Last chance for TrHED bodhráns orders which will be finished by end of October 2015 !
I will start making on Wednesday, 7th of October, so orders will be accepted (depending on skin availability of course) until then.
The skins for TrHED bodhráns are very rare and as there are just a few more left at the moment, only a few TrHED orders can be taken.
Next TrHED series will presumably be made in summer/autumn 2016.

In past we've encouraged you to "soft pitch" ideas. Unfortunately, we've never actually told you how to do that. The result is that many of you are sending in submissions that are not soft pitches at all. Instead, they are broad ideas that hurt your chances of success. That ends today. You're about to learn how to soft pitch the right way. This will help you focus your resources, decide which projects to spend time on, and impress the heck out of us.
What's A Soft Pitch and Why Should You Care?
A soft pitch is a discussion about a potential reality TV concept or doc series. You have this discussion when you're wondering if you should spend more time developing the project. (Something we went into in our guide on how to pitch a reality show.)
If you decide to soft pitch, it should take place:
- AFTER you've you've found a real person, place, business, or other interesting thing to build your show around.
- BEFORE you film anythnig.
Why Give a Soft Pitch?
When you're just starting out, you're developing in a vacuum. You don't know what networks are buying, or what kinds of shows are total no-gos.
Today, at Joke Productions, our reality TV production company, we talk to agents and network execs every day.
Chances are you don't yet have that luxury.
That means there could be issues with our project you have no way of identifying on your own.
Potential Issues With Your Pitch
Your concept might be a MOP (Most Often Pitched.)
As an example of a MOP, don't spend a bunch of time on a ghost-hunting pitch right now. (There are so many straight-forward ghost-hunting pitches out there it would be a long shot. If you're compelled to shoot it anyways, at least you know it probably won't get to air.)
Or you might have discovered great characters very similar to a project recently purchased by a few different networks. If you're not talking to agents and network execs every day, you wouldn't know this.
By soft pitching to the right people (not an agent, manager, or someone you pay to listen to you) you can get a feel for whether a project is worth pursuing.
Soft Pitch the Right Way
Here's what a soft pitch is NOT.
It's not just an idea. These are not soft pitches:
- "How about a reality show at an amusement park?"
- "It's a hyper-real show about divorce."
- "We find cute girls who are all BFFs and follow their path to adulthood."
- "It's a fitness show about looking your best."
- "A documentary series set at Donald Trump's mansion. I don't know the man, but I'm sure with a network on board he'd bite."
Soft pitching the right way means building your soft pitch around something real you've already discovered.
Today's podcast episode gives you a blueprint on how to soft pitch. It'll help you avoid the mistakes so many make when employing this technique.
For examples of soft pitches, a "soft pitch clinic" featuring before and afters, and sage advice from Joke on who you should and should not soft pitch, click the giant PLAY button above.

Philadelphia Phillies (53-46 Road: 26-23) at New York Mets (53-46 Home: 28-18) 7:10pm
Joe Blanton (5-12 4.96) vs. Johan Santana (8-7 3.10)
What to watch: The Phils and Mets start a three game series tonight with identical 53-46 records. Blanton is making his debut for the Phils tonight against Santana. I'm sure he'll be geeked up to show what he can do for the Phillies. Santana got bombed in Cincy five days ago for five runs in four innings. I'm sure he'll be looking to turn that around quickly. Billy Wagner may be available but I'm sure that Jerry Manuel will only use him if absolutely necessary.

Mammoth Cave. by Martin M. When the park became a national park.

by Martin M.
In 1926, Congress gave an approval to make Mammoth Cave a national park. This was authorized to protect the landscape, such as the caves, hilly country, and scenic river valleys in south central Kentucky. The park became an attraction as early as 1816 but the park was established officially in 1941 by Congress.
Mammoth Cave was an important part of the beginning of our country's tourism because it was one of our first big attractions. As a young country, we couldn't compete with the antiquities of Europe, but we did have the wonders of nature. Mammoth Cave, The Grand Canyon, and Giant Sequoia were big and beautiful!
Since North America was located closer to the equater 350 million years ago, a shallow warm-watered sea blanketed the southeastern U.S. A build-up of tiny creature's calcium carbonated shells went on for 70 million years. Seven hundred feet of limestone and shale followed, and to top it off, sixty feet of sandstone blanketed the layers under it. The sea level started dropping about 280 million years ago, exposing the limestone and sandstone. Tectonic forces lifting earth's crust caused cracks to form between the limestone and sandstone. Uplifts continued, causing rivers to form which created the sandstone-capped plateau over millions of years above the Green River(pictoral slide will show this) and the almost flat plains of limestone. Rain water, made acified by the carbon dioxide in the soil, seeped downward through the cracks in the limestone and started to dissolve and transform the solid rock into the pathways of Mammoth Cave as they are today. This process continues daily, forming new underground paths.
Limestone, dolomite, sandstone, and shale are all found in the park, but common field rocks are a beauty to some people. Selenite, mirabilite, epsomite, and gypsum are also found in the caves.
Above Ground
Mammoth cave can be quiet as you first walk in, but some 200 species live in the caves. Forty-two species have stumbled into the cave and have adapted to the dark.
cavefish ----->
The caves are changing all the time! The Green river cuts underground and is eroding away at the passageways, forming new ones every year. This is called Terminal Breakdown. The Historic entrance is an example of valley deepening and widening. The entrance has collapsed due to this deepening and widening.
Historic entrance

The technology used in Mammoth Cave is to help eliminate a plant called lampenflora. Lampenflora grows on artifically lit passageways disturbing the cave's eco-system by introducing a new source of energy into the food chain.
Scientists from Mammoth cave and are working with cave scientists from Slovenia to get rid of the lampenflora. Slovenia has a similar problem in their caves.

In the photo, she wears a floral print crop top and matching underwear. Miley also sports a pink polka dot turban on her head. While all of that might be fashionable enough, she also rocked some pit hair. Fans noticed the armpit fuzz and commented with the hashtag #armpithair.
Honestly, Miley's hair looks nothing more than just a little stubble. She probably forgotten to shave, or maybe she's making a feminist statement. She is not the first celebrity who shared a photo of herself on Instagram with hairy armpits, ya know?
Her buddy Madonna showed off her long armpit hair online, too. She captioned her photo, "Long hair...Don't care!!!!! #artforfreedom #rebelheart #revolutionoflove."

As much as I'd like to, I can't be aware of every single happening in pop culture. There's just not enough time in the world. That's why I'm glad that I have a virtual network of kindred souls-eyes and ears that can turn me on to things that I wasn't previously aware of.
A while back, my friend, Jeff Giles, sent me an email featuring a trailer to a film called A TASTE OF HEAVEN: The Heartbreak Life of Raymond Myles, Gospel Genius of New Orleans. I took a look, and was not only floored by the talent of Raymond Myles, but felt some identification to his story.
If you watch even five seconds of Raymond in performance, you will be quite aware of the talent this man possessed. You will probably also, very quickly, realize that any sort of commercial success-whether in an overarching pop realm or the gospel music realm- would have probably been out of the question. As a big, colorful, openly gay black man performing spiritual music in an even less enlightened age than today, there is just no way. It would be the hardest of sells in 2013. One can only imagine the amount of "are you crazy?"s that dotted the music industry landscape when presented with Myles in the mid-Nineties.
None of that should-or should have-distracted anyone from his talent and his message. Whether the message was of a man from the projects of New Orleans finding salvation in music and teaching a younger generation that there was a way out, or the message was of a man who could lift spirits with a few notes played on the piano and the clearing of his throat, this man should have been a big freaking deal. The fact that Raymond put himself in danger by flaunting his material wealth in the projects and put himself in even greater danger by cruising for sex adds layers to an already complex story. The struggle between the sacred and profane is nothing new in music, but the story behind A Taste of Heaven would lay all these struggles bare and deal with them in a manner that most music documentaries avoid.
You can view the teaser here.
The documentary is currently in production, and is being spearheaded by Leo Sacks, whose name you might be familiar with from his background with many a music publication (and a compiler of excellent reissues for Sony Legacy.) Leo has financed it himself so far, and is actively searching for the finishing funds to film interviews with Raymond's most ardent admirers, including Allen Toussaint, Harry Connick, Jr., Dr. John and the Neville Brothers. Big fans like Harry Shearer and David Fricke will also connect Raymond to Little Richard, Elton John, David Bowie and Freddie Mercury.
As many of you know, Jazz Fest is coming up in New Orleans (one day, I'll get down there. I swear it!) The film teaser (which you can view here) will be shown on May 1st at the New Orleans Museum of Art as part of "Synch Up" entertainment business conference. If you're down in N.O., not only will I be extremely jealous of you, but you'll also be able to meet up with Leo Sacks himself (as well as Raymond's protege, Davell Crawford) to present the teaser.
While the details of our stories are significantly different from one another, I can attest in firsthand fashion to the fact that being gay and black in a world that doesn't fully accept either is a trial within itself. When you add in Raymond's vocal talent and his religious bent, you've got a hell of a story. A Taste of Heaven would allow for that story to be told, and might result in a lot of eyes being opened. Please feel free to
Check out this review (from Popmatters) of the A Taste of Heaven album. Also make sure you check out raymondmylesmovie.com, where you can get some background info on Raymond, and get in touch with Leo to ask any questions you might have about how you can assist!

Happy bucks came from Gary Miller. Reminders, if you are bringing a speaker and need a projector, contact Gary Miller. He has the projector at his house for security reasons. Dan announced that the Trinity Soup dinner is March 3rd at the Trinity's school gym. Cost is $7 and Dan will have tickets. In addition, Dan is the soup maker. Dawn has a interclub planned for February 18th. It is the Noon Club's Chili and Grilled Cheese lunch at the American Legion hall. Cost is $6.
Donna Altepetea – Grief Relief
Donna is the new director of Grief Relief. This program is part of Agnesian Bereavement Support Program. Grief Relief serves children who have had loss in of a close family member. It offers support to both kids and parents. They are also on call to help children in the school system with a loss of a fellow student. The bereavement program started with the hospice program and has grown to cover any death in the hospital or nursing home. The club donated $300 to buy a case of special books for the kids to use in their support groups. The photo is attached. The book was developed by United Healthcare. They also host a two day camp for their kids. Last year they had forty kids at Cedar Valley for the camp. Our own Gary ring was one of the volunteers. Gary also helps with one of the support groups. They always need additional volunteers 907-3940. Their big fund raiser is April 14th at the K/C Hall.

- 2 cups of assorted loosely packed Basil
- 1 teaspoon of chives
- 1/4 cup of pine nuts
- 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 cup of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
- 1 cup of plain greek yogurt
- Parsley for Garnish
I actually made this dip for a contest I entered on AeroGarden.com. I love my AeroGarden. If you aren't familiar, they're indoor aeroponic gardens in which you can grow herbs, flowers, and veggies year round. It uses just water and nutrients. So simple. This recipe was inspired by the always plentiful harvest of basil that I have in my AeroGarden. It's a great party dip, and the greek yogurt makes it a lighter and healthier option than sour cream or cream cheese.
Cravin' Raven – Basil Pesto Dip
In a blender or food processor: Add the basil, pine nuts, chives, and cheese. Pulse the ingredients until combined. Slowly add the olive oil until well combined. Transfer to a bowl. Add in yogurt, and black pepper. Season with salt if needed. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve with crudités such as bell peppers or pita chips. Garnish with parsley.
Side note… if you're in a pinch, just your favorite store bought pesto and just mix it with greek yogurt. Everyone will be impressed. You can tell them it's all homemade… I won't tell.

Justin Chang / Los Angeles Times
Broad Green Pictures will open THE INFILTRATOR on Wednesday, July 13th.
THE INFILTRATOR is based on a true story of Federal agent Robert "Bob" Mazur (Bryan Cranston) who goes deep undercover to infiltrate Pablo Escobar's drug trafficking scene plaguing the nation in 1986 by posing as slick, money-laundering businessman Bob Musella. Teamed with impulsive and streetwise fellow agent Emir Abreu (John Leguizamo) and rookie agent posing as his fiancé Kathy Ertz (Diane Kruger), Mazur befriends Escobar's top lieutenant Roberto Alcaino (Benjamin Bratt). Navigating a vicious criminal network in which the slightest slip-up could cost him his life, Mazur risks it all building a case that leads to indictments of 85 drug lords and the corrupt bankers who cleaned their dirty money, along with the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the largest money-laundering banks in the world.
