Do Catholics love and accept others? Not this priest.
I'm what you'd call an a la carte Catholic.
[caption id="attachment_85419" align="alignright" width="300" caption="To me, Holy Communion is symbolic of Gods love for us; a priest has no right to deny that to anyone who comes searching for it."][/caption]
Too convenient? Maybe.
Especially in times like these, when a priest like Rev. Marcel Guarnizo uses his position in the church to deny someone like Barbara Johnson, who happens to love another woman instead of a man, communion during her own mother's funeral.
Now, there are many reasons I'm an a la carte Catholic, one of which is that I see nothing wrong with homosexuality; nor do I believe in a God who would turn his back on his own children just because of their sexual orientation. Dare I say that a large portion of the heterosexual marriages among us don't put the whole man-woman union thing in the best light. Besides, who are we to deny anyone the experience of looking at their husband or wife 10 years in and wondering, "Was I high as a kite the day I committed my life to you?"
I was raised in the Catholic church my entire life. Not just the Roman Catholic Church mind you, but the Polish Roman Catholic Church, which is like Catholicism on crack. Our local Parish, the John Paul II Polish Center, was and continues to be a mecca for Poles who love them some Jesus with a side of pierogi.
I love the church for many reasons: the sense of community among parishioners, the beautiful holiday traditions and rituals, the comfort of knowing that I am a child of God, and the familiar smell of unfiltered second-hand cigarette smoke wafting into the parish hall after mass.
Like I said, Polish-Catholic.
But I also loathe some of what the church teaches, such as that homosexuality is wrong, or that you have to be a baby-making machine until you're all dried up because contraception is forbidden. These are rules that do not encompass the God I believe in and I don't adhere to these beliefs. Hence, the a la carte Catholic.
The treatment of Barbara Johnson at the hands of Father Guarnizo is a perfect illustration of someone abusing the power of their ministry to suit their own agenda. Father Guarnizo used his position as a priest to deny communion to a woman who, in his eyes, lives in sin and is undeserving of God's love and acceptance. He humiliated Johnson at her mother's funeral by covering the bread as she approached him in line and grossly overstepped his duties as a man of the cloth.
We throw around fancy terms like having to live in a "state of grace" in order to be able to receive holy communion during mass. But I ask you: how many folks do you think lining up to get a piece of Jesus into their hearts are truly without sin? And how do we define sin anyway?
A priest who plays God and humiliates a woman in mourning is a sinner in my eyes.
A letter dated March 9 and written by the Washington archdiocese, where Guarnizo is a priest, announced that he had been put on administrative leave. The reason? "Engaging in intimidating behavior toward parish staff and others that is incompatible with proper priestly ministry." It was not directly attributed to the communion exchange between Guarnizo and Johnson.
I applaud the Washington diocese for taking swift action against a priest who seems to have a pattern of being a jerk and hope that this raises the bar for other dioceses across the country.
The Catholic church has a lot of work to do in restoring the faith of its followers. The church needs to work on proving that the men who are ordained as priests are worthy of their role, are of sound mind and pure heart; men who truly want what's best for their congregations as they try to bring life to the word of God for millions of Catholics in our nation.
The suspension of someone like Father Guarnizo feels like a tiny step in the right direction.
Because if my instincts are right, and God is just like you and me and loves his kiddos unconditionally, he would have given Johnson communion himself that day.

A federal agent filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the Henderson Police Department and three officers, alleging they roughed him up last year after a game of pool in a downtown tavern became heated.
According to court documents filed by attorney Cal Potter, Brad Hare was playing pool at the Gold Mine Tavern on Aug. 13, 2007, when he and his opponent became engaged in a "spirited debate."
His opponent told Hare that he had connections to Henderson police and could have him arrested.
At 1:30 a.m., three on-duty officers entered the bar and, without asking Hare or the bartender about the dispute, "violently lifted Mr. Hare off (the) ground and slammed Mr. Hare on the center of the pool table," according to the lawsuit.
The officers are accused of dragging Hare out of the bar in a "pain-compliance arm-bar hold," throwing him on the hood of a sport utility vehicle, searching him and asking for his identification. One officer accused Hare of attempting to spit on him. Hare informed them he worked for a federal law enforcement agency.
"Hare then told the Henderson police officers that what they were doing was very wrong," the lawsuit says.
At that point, the officers left Hare injured in the alley behind Water Street, Potter said. Hare suffered bruises on his ribs, face and arms when he was tossed against the vehicle, Potter said.
Keith Paul, spokesman for the Henderson Police Department, said the department had not been served with a lawsuit and therefore could not comment. City Attorney Shauna Hughes was out of the office Wednesday.
As a result of the incident, Hare was unable to work and suffered mental anguish, the lawsuit says. He is seeking a judgment to exceed $1 million.
Potter said Hare did not immediately show the officers his law enforcement badge because that goes against agency policy. Potter refused to disclose the agency, saying his client's position is covert.
"You aren't supposed to tell people they're an agent," Potter said. "There are a couple of people who use the influence of their badge to get through things."
Potter said neither he nor Hare knows the names of the officers involved and the Police Department has not been cooperative. Potter filed an internal affairs complaint shortly after the incident, but has received no report back from Henderson.
"Our client brought his case to internal affairs at Henderson P.D. and was blown off," said Gary Peck, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada, which is also representing Hare. "That's a problem. You need to be serious about investigating allegations of misconduct, so you know when police officers misbehave, they are held accountable."
The lawsuit claims that Henderson Police supervisors are failing to properly train its officers in use of force tactics and procedures.
"This case may well be a part of a broader pattern and practice that is of real concern to us," Peck said.

Trevor Newandyke isn't very funny. This is rather unfortunate since he longs to be a stand-up comedian. He spends most of his days frustratingly reciting his routines in the mirror. The crowds at the local comedy club rarely laugh during his rambled sets and, to avoid embarrassment, the owner constantly bumps him when scouts or known comics stop by. Trevor wastes most of his time amusing himself by setting things on fire. He also finds joy in graffiti and putting fireworks in people's mailboxes. One day he meets a strange man who is dressed as the devil and selling fruit. Trevor makes a deal with him, trading a joke for an apple. After eating it, Trevor becomes extremely irritable, yet also uncharacteristically confident and outspoken. This new combination actually makes him funny and the audiences begin to laugh. Soon, though, he'll come to realize that this all comes at a pretty big cost. APE follows one slacker's bizarre and dangerous quest for laughter. – E.F.

Earlier today, a YouTube video appeared featuring a large group of heavily armed men wearing various military and police uniforms in Crimea. The group's apparent leader declares that two battalions of Crimean militiamen will come to the aid of combatants in Slaviansk, where Ukraine's national army is fighting against pro-Russia separatists, who have occupied parts of the city.
According to the Russian newspaper Moskovskii Komsomolets, Crimea's militia fighting force includes over two thousand men. The paper reports that Russia's May holidays (culminating on May 9, the 69th anniversary of the USSR's victory in World War II) have brought Crimean locals into the streets for celebrations, helping facilitate the gathering of men willing to go fight in Ukraine's southeast.
Irregular militia marching on Slaviansk and other southeastern cities in Ukraine could present Kiev with a tricky legal situation. Though Moscow exercises de facto control over Crimea, the national government refuses to recognize Russia's annexation, complicating Kiev's classification of any combatants marching into the Ukrainian mainland from Crimea, which formally remains a part of Ukraine. Would these soldiers be Russian troops? Or are they more Ukrainian "terrorists," as Kiev now identifies combatants throughout the southeast?
In other words, the Kremlin might project its power into Ukraine's mainland by encouraging, and perhaps arming, Crimean militia, who in turn would advance on Slaviansk. In theory, Moscow might succeed, if only semantically, in "laundering" an armed intervention in this way.
What follows is the video and a full translation of the public address by the supposed Crimean militia leader, which was published on YouTube today.
Сегодня 2 мая 2014 года. Мы – ополченцы Крыма. Обращаемся к народу юго-востока. Братья! Сегодня в составе двух батальонов крымское ополчение выдвигается на юго-восток. Мы услышали, как регулярная армия и правый сектор бомбят Славянск и другие города юго-востока. Я обращаюсь к матерям и женам правого сектора. Уберите своих детей оттуда. Наша задача не брать ни пленных, никого. Мы идем на уничтожение. Теперь обращаюсь к народу юго-востока. Выдвигаемся туда и будем сносить все что у нас на пути, все то, что противоречит и противостоит простому народу. Держитесь, мы с вами!"
The date is May 2, 2014. We are the militia of Crimea. We appeal to the people of [Ukraine's] southeast. Brothers! Today, the Crimean militia, consisting of two battalions, advances on the southeast. We have heard how [Ukraine's] Army and Right Sector are bombing Slaviansk and other cities of the southeast. I would like to address all the mothers and wives of the men in Right Sector: get yours boys out of there. Our mission won't be to take anyone prisoner. We intend to destroy the enemy. Now I'd like to address the people of the southeast: we are coming and we will demolish everything standing in our way—anything that contradicts or stands against the common people. Hold strong! We're with you!

Syngenta and Buck Semillas have entered into a collaboration agreement under which both parties will exchange genetics, utilizing technology platforms and know-how to develop new wheat varieties.
By combining Buck Semilla's locally adapted genetics and Syngenta's industry-leading technology and global germplasm pool, the collaboration will deliver new varieties that will offer a higher yield and quality potential to Argentinean wheat farmers. The option to include these varieties in Syngenta´s integrated wheat offers will help farmers to realize this new genetic potential and to sustain Argentina's leading position in wheat production in South America.
"Syngenta is committed to transforming wheat production worldwide as a key driver to global food security," said Florian Wagner, Syngenta Head of Cereals for Latin America South. "This collaboration with Buck Semillas ensures that Argentina has access to the best wheat breeding technologies. In addition, it gives us the opportunity to offer to the wheat farmer in Argentina innovative, complete solutions, which are crucial to maintain local crop competitiveness in the future."
"Our strategy since the 1930s is breeding wheat varieties to consistently improve our offer to Argentinean farmers" said Hilda Buck, President of Buck Semillas. "In 2011 alone we have launched three new varieties that are the result of a previous material exchange agreement with Syngenta.

I know my way around a Krispy Kream doughnut. When my family and I went on a family vacation to Las Vegas when I was 15 there was a Krispy Kream restaurant right in our hotel! What do you think I had every morning for breakfast? Also - I remember when Krispy Kreams were first sold in my small hometown in Wisconsin! It was such a huge deal when one of the local gas stations started carrying fresh Krispy Kreams! Every Sunday morning my Mom or Dad would drive to the gas station to get us all donuts for breakfast! So much fun!
While they are delicious, I must say you probably shouldn't be eating these every day. Fried dough covered in sugar and sprinkles is only acceptable to eat once and a while. There - now that I've said that I'm going to make some more. I wish I could send a batch to every one of you!
*Makes about 24 doughnuts*
Doughnut Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 tbsp dry yeast
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups warm non-dairy milk (I used So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 1/3 cup vegetable shortening
- 5 cups all purpose flour
- vegetable oil (for frying)
In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in the 1/4 cup water.
Add the milk, sugar, salt, applesauce, shortening, and 2 cups of flour. Beat on low for 30 seconds - scraping the sides of the bowl as you go. Increase the speed to medium and beat for another 2 minutes.
Stir in the remaining 3 cups of flour and combine thoroughly. Cover the bowl with a towel and allow the dough to rise for 45 minutes to an hour. When the dough has increased in size and when poked - the indentation remains - it's ready!
Dump the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and lightly coat with flour. Gently roll the dough to 1/2 inch thickness.
Cut the dough into strips and form them into the classic doughnut shape. Sometimes the strips will have to be cut in half so the doughnuts aren't too big!
Once you're done forming all the doughnuts - cover them and allow them to rise until they've doubled in size. It will usually take 30-40 minutes.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot until it reaches 350 degrees F.
Carefully slide the doughnuts into the oil one at a time. Don't over crowd them! Fry on each side until golden brown - about 1 minute on each side.
Place the doughnuts on a cooling rack lined with paper towels to allow them to drain and cool.
Glaze Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup shortening
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 6 tbsp hot water
Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until everything is well combined.
After the donuts have cooled - dip them in the glaze or brush the glaze on with a pastry brush. Set the doughnuts back on the cooling rack and allow the glaze to set.
Sprinkle with sprinkles and enjoy!

It seems that with legal challenges to Apple's iTunes DRM flying at him left and right, Steve Jobs just can't ignore it any longer. He's penned an open letter addressing the state of DRM, and it contains some interesting news:
The third alternative is to abolish DRMs entirely. Imagine a world where every online store sells DRM-free music encoded in open licensable formats. In such a world, any player can play music purchased from any store, and any store can sell music which is playable on all players. This is clearly the best alternative for consumers, and Apple would embrace it in a heartbeat.
Oh, really? We imagine the RIAA might have a bit of trouble with that idea, but as time wears on it seems all but inevitable that DRM go away. And it appears that Steve Jobs has just committed Apple, should the recording industry ever wise up:
If the big four music companies would license Apple their music without the requirement that it be protected with a DRM, we would switch to selling only DRM-free music on our iTunes store. Every iPod ever made will play this DRM-free music.
Are you listening music companies? —MEGHANN MARCO

Promising all-rounder Parvez Rasool impressed with a five-wicket haul, but West Indies 'A' held the edge as they made inroads into the India 'A' batting line-up after being all out for 429 in the first unofficial Test on Thursday.
At stumps on the second day of the match, India 'A' were in a spot of bother at 124 for three, with skipper Chesteshwar Pujara back in the pavilion.
The hosts were trailing the Kirk Edwards-led side by 305 runs with seven wickets in hand.
Manprit Juneja was unbeaten on 47 off 77 balls while Harshad Khadiwale was batting on five. Opener Lokesh Rahul made 46 off 100 balls at the Gangothri Glades Cricket Ground.
Earlier, Jammu and Kashmir cricketer Rasool emerged as star of the day by taking five wickets for 116 runs in 45 overs. While the rest of the bowlers struggled to get rid of the West Indies tail-enders, the 24-year-old off-spinner always seemed to be on the lookout for wickets.
Resuming at 264 for five, the last five West Indian batsmen frustrated the Indian bowlers by contributing a commendable 192 runs.
West Indies 'A' lost their overnight batsman Chadwick Walton in the fourth over of the day. Walton could only add eight runs to his overnight unbeaten 27 before being trapped leg before by pacer Ishwar Pandey.
Assad Fadudin (86 not out) and Nikita Miller (49) then thwarted the Indian bowlers, putting on a crucial 88-run partnership for the seventh wicket.
Miller was unfortunately run out by the Pujara-Rohit Motwani combo. His innings came off 86 balls and was studded with five boundaries.
West Indies lost another wicket in the form of Veerasammy Permaul (11), but not before crafting a 42-run stand for the eighth wicket with Fadudin.
Rasool then quickly packed off Delorn Johnson (0) and Miguel Cummins (6), leaving Fudadin 14 short of what would have been a well-deserved century. He faced 201 balls, hit 10 fours and a six.
Brief scores:
West Indies A 429 (Kraigg Brathwaite 92, Kirk Edwards 91; Parvez Rasool 5 for 116) lead India A 124 for 3 (Manprit Juneja 47*, Lokesh rahul 46) by 305 runs.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - NASA's Mars rover Curiosity resumed analysis of a sample of rock powder following a computer glitch that suspended operations for a week, scientists said on Monday.
Before the computer problem, results radioed back to Earth revealed that the rock, located near Curiosity's Gale Crater landing site, contains all the chemical ingredients necessary for microbial life, the over-arching goal of the planned two-year mission.
Scientists are eager for additional information about the rock sample, which was drilled out from what appears to be a slab of bedrock in an area known as Yellowknife Bay.
Curiosity automatically suspended its work on March 17 when it detected a problem with a computer data file. The glitch occurred as the rover was recovering from an earlier, unrelated computer problem.
The unplanned work hiatus ended over the weekend, NASA's deputy project manager Jim Erickson said.
"It's a slow recovery process, but we're back doing science," Erickson said.
Analysis of the rock powder will continue for about another week. Beginning April 4, radio communications between Earth and Mars will be blocked by the sun for a month, suspending most of the rover's science operations again.
When the planets re-align for communications after May 1, scientists plan to drill a second hole into the rock to verify the early results and look more closely for signs of organic carbon.
The $2.5 billion rover landed on Mars on August 6 to assess if the planet most like Earth has or ever had the chemical ingredients and environments for microbial life.
Scientists eventually plan to drive the rover to a 3-mile (5-km) high mound of what appears to be layered sediment rising from the floor of Gale Crater.

Whether you are planning a romantic night with your special someone, or an intimate gathering of close friends – bring your dinner out under the stars for a picnic!
Set the mood by creating a cozy area for people to gather. Lounge chairs, blankets, big pillows will do – add lanterns, candles and potted plants around to add color and some mood lighting. Serve food that is not only easy to eat, but remember to use serving dishes that aren't breakable and they should sit well on the ground. Baskets are perfect for this occasion! Gather bowls of different dips, slices of bread, and crackers all into one basket.
Come up with a festive dessert, such as a summer fruit salad with sambuca. Give this recipe from Williams Sonoma a try….
Feel free to vary it according to the fruit available, adding raspberries, peaches, oranges or melons. Adjust the sugar, lemon juice and sambuca to suit your taste. Kirsch or another fruit brandy can be used in place of the sambuca, if you prefer. The critical step is the long maceration, which allows the flavors to blend.
1 mango
1 plum
1 nectarine
1 cup blackberries
1 cup blueberries
1/4 cup sugar, plus more as needed
Grated zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1/2 lemon, plus more as needed
2 Tbs. anise liqueur, such as sambuca or anisette,
plus more as needed
1 banana
Hull the strawberries and halve or quarter if large. Peel and dice the mango. Dice the plum and nectarine.
In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, mango, plum, nectarine, blackberries and blueberries. Add the 1/4 cup sugar, the lemon zest, the juice of 1/2 lemon and the 2 Tbs. sambuca and stir well. Dice the banana and stir into the salad. Taste and add more sugar, lemon juice or sambuca, if needed.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust the flavorings before serving. Serves 4 to 6.

Sally is making a real effort to get along with Betty, even though in private, she tells Dr. Edna that Betty doesn't care what the truth is as long as Sally does what she says, and Dr. Edna expresses her pride that Sally is managing to behave despite all the anger she feels, and adds that Sally hasn't done anything wrong. Dr. Edna tells Betty that Sally is doing well enough that she feels comfortable reducing her sessions to once a week, and then, after Betty bi***es about Henry for a bit, once again tries to get her to start therapy of her own, with the same negative results. Things go downhill when Betty catches Sally with Glen, whom she's been seeing platonically but regularly, and when she tells Henry she's ready for the family to move out of the neighborhood as a power play against Sally, Sally breaks down. Fun subplot number two.
Don surreptitiously meets with a Heinz guy, but he's let down in a big way when the guy won't commit now because he's afraid SCDP won't be around in six months. Despite all the brouhaha about professional ethics last week, the SCDP higher-ups meet with Faye's boss (from the Christmas party episode), who strongly urges them to find a cigarette company to replace Lucky Strike – specifically, Phillip Morris, who's rolling out a new brand for young women and with whom he can arrange a meeting. Everyone's all smiles in public, but later we get a montage of everyone panicking, with Pryce even saying that they've only got a month before they won't be able to afford everyone's full payroll. Things go from bad to worse when Faye's boss shows up with the news that the meeting has been canceled, and adds insult to injury by unwittingly parroting the "maybe in six months" line the Heinz guy gave to Don.

Unlike the energy-intensive, multi-step processes required to produce fuel from algae or other biomass sources, Joule's Helioculture™ platform produces infrastructure-ready diesel and ethanol directly and continuously from sunlight and waste CO2, with no dependence on arable land or fresh water. The diesel process yields long-chain alkanes, the majority component of diesel fuel, as opposed to a low-percentage blendstock like biodiesel. As a result it can immediately "drop in" to the existing diesel infrastructure with no need for refining or chemical processing.
Joule's production facilities will employ the next generation of the company's novel SolarConverter® system, which manages the direct, continuous process from photon capture to product synthesis and separation with efficiencies that are up to 50X greater than those of biomass-dependent processes. At full-scale production, Joule expects to deliver diesel and ethanol for as little as $20/bble and $0.60/gallon respectively, including current subsidies.
Peer-reviewed article addresses the advances made by Joule to achieve direct, continuous conversion of solar energy to renewable diesel at 15,000 gallons/acre/year.
• Based on empirical measurements, Joule can directly produce 15,000 gallons of diesel per acre annually, as compared to 3,000 gallons of biodiesel produced indirectly from algae.
• The solar-to-product conversion efficiency of Joule's direct, continuous process for producing diesel, ethanol and chemicals is between 5 and 50X greater than any biomass-dependent process, and gains additional efficiencies by avoiding downstream refining.
• Joule's combined advances in genome engineering, solar capture and bioprocessing result in photosynthetic conversion efficiency of more than 7% relative to available yearly solar energy striking the ground, many times greater than prior industry assumptions.

Jackson Kayak
Rapid results with iPad and iPhone.
iPad and iPhone keep business running smoothly for this leading kayak manufacturer.
Keeping any business afloat is a challenge — but for Eric Jackson, it's an extreme balancing act. As a champion kayaker, he spends half of each year following competitions and events from river to river throughout North America. As president of Jackson Kayak, the leading whitewater kayak manufacturer, he also needs to stay in constant contact with his 120-person company. iPad and iPhone let him do both.
"For my business, the one-two punch is iPhone and iPad," Jackson says. "With these two devices, I can run the entire company. I've literally got my office with me at all times."
From an RV equipped with Wi-Fi, Jackson keeps connected with Jackson Kayak's headquarters in Sparta, Tennessee. "And when I'm not on Wi-Fi, my iPad has a 3G connection," he says. "I just grab my iPad and I'm already online."
Jackson isn't alone in relying on iPad and iPhone at this thriving company. In fact, he and his management team consider these devices so indispensable that they've outfitted their entire workforce — from customer service to design to quality control — with iPhones, and many with iPads as well.
"We've been surprised how people have responded when we've given them iPhones and iPads," says Dave Olson, Chief Financial Officer. "We were getting more time and more engagement from every employee that had an iPhone. So we got everyone an iPhone."
The iPad Office
For Jackson, a four-time freestyle kayaking world champion and U.S. Olympic Kayaking Team member, it's essential to participate in athletic events, monitor industry trends in the field, and meet directly with dealers and customers. Jackson's strong customer focus has helped propel the company to international success, with distribution on six continents.
Managing the business remotely wasn't always such smooth sailing. "There's no way I could have run the company this way until very recently," says Jackson. "iPad is a godsend for me and Jackson Kayak. I'm connected all the time. It's just as effective as having an office inside the factory."
Whether he's analyzing customer data, refreshing website content, or approving new designs, Jackson uses his iPad to get instant access to his entire operation.
"I get my work done way faster," he says. "There's no booting up — I've got my calendar, emails are already in. With iPad I've got all the tools I need to communicate with the home office, my dealers, and my customers."
iPad and iPhone Everywhere
Back at the shop, Jackson Kayak's management team and employees find iPad and iPhone equally invaluable.
"I use my iPad all day long," says John Ratliff, Chief Operations Officer. "It's fast. It's compact. It's convenient. The battery life is exceptional. It's what you want to see, when you want to see it."
Instant-on power and the large, clear iPad display make it especially useful in a factory environment. For example, Ratliff can compare Jackson Kayak's manufacturing equipment side-by-side with images of replacement parts on iPad to make sure he's getting the correct pieces. "Even under the bright lights of manufacturing, you've got excellent visibility and resolution," he says. "You can zoom in and see great detail. It's the perfect alternative to having a laptop on the shop floor."
With one-touch access to email and other resources, iPad and iPhone have transformed interoffice communication. Both devices are simple to configure through the company's Exchange server, keeping contacts, calendars, and email continuously updated over the air. "Once you set the settings, you're done," Ratliff says. "There's nothing to tweak, nothing to configure."
Above all, these devices inspire Jackson Kayak employees to deliver great results. "iPhone and iPad have changed the way our people work," Olson says. "Even employees who aren't technology-inclined are eager to use iPad and iPhone. It's simple, it's intuitive, and it gets them the information they need with just a tap."
Making Connections with Apps
From finance to marketing to manufacturing, business apps for iPad and iPhone keep Jackson Kayak on course. Apps like Pages, Numbers, and Keynote allow Jackson and his team to create and edit documents, spreadsheets, and presentations anywhere — and the built-in AirPrint feature in these apps lets them print directly to a wireless printer. "With Keynote on iPad, I can easily import from PowerPoint and deliver rich multimedia presentations. Dealers love it," says Ratliff.
Jackson uses WordPress to remotely manage content on the company website, and Analytics HD on iPad to monitor site traffic. "One tap and you've got a dashboard with an overview of traffic for the last month," he says. "I can directly relate this activity to sales of specific products at the dealer level."
Other top apps include Square, for mobile credit card processing; Air Sharing HD, for wireless storage and transfer of business files; and Duplicam for iPad, which allows users to view an image from the iPhone camera live on an iPad screen. "We can reach into a tight place with an iPhone and actually see inside the boat," Ratliff says.
The Portable Kayaker
Jackson Kayak has also begun developing its own iPhone and iPad apps, including Jackson Kayak Mobile, an app for the whitewater kayaking community. The app delivers the latest company news, community forums, product information, and videos.
"My customers are very mobile," says Jackson. "They're tech savvy, but they're outdoors people. They're not always in front of a laptop, but they've always got their iPhones with them. So we're in touch with our customers at all times."
Jackson and his team worked with a third-party developer to create the app. "In one conversation with them, I knew what was going to be financially feasible, what we could do in our time schedule, and what our next steps were," he says. Working via email, they were able to quickly fine-tune the app's features, functionality, and appearance, then test it with a soft launch in the App Store before promoting it to Jackson Kayak's customer base. From start to finish, the process took about five weeks.
Customer response has been enthusiastic. "Everybody was super fired up," Jackson reports. "We get a lot of 'coolest thing ever, awesome' comments" Online videos are the most popular app content, followed by company news. Jackson sees the app as part of an integrated marketing strategy that has pushed dealer orders 50% higher than a year ago. "In today's market, you've got to reach end users on their terms," he says. "This app is another tool to make sure we're in everybody's pocket."
Success Ahead
As they head into their most successful year to date, Jackson and his team plan to create additional customer and in-house apps, including an app for kayak fishing and an internal dashboard of key management metrics. They also intend to keep expanding their pool of iPhones and iPads.
"We're a small company that's growing very fast, and we have to be careful where we invest our resources," says Olson. "We're investing in iPhones and iPads because we've found that employees with these devices are much more valuable. All of a sudden we've tapped into this potential, tapped into the employees, and we've become a great company."
iPad and iPhone help Jackson Kayak smooth the course of business and meet its most important goals: connecting with customers, expanding markets, ensuring high product quality, and most of all, maintaining a balance between work and the rest of life.
"Quality of life is my number-one priority: for myself, my family, my employees," Jackson says. "iPad and iPhone allow me to enjoy that quality of life, and pass it on to my team at Jackson Kayak as well."

Easy ride before the run
Brick run, I ran at the speed that I was feeling good.
Plan changed a bit, I finally have a shorter run today. I ain't gonna complain about that since my legs are still tired from my 36km :p
Looking at the calendar, that green square on the 19th is coming fast :p
Easy ride with Francine
I had a ride followed by a brick run on the plan for today, but since I am on vacation I decided to switch it with tomorrow's plan. I ran 36km Friday and rode long yesterday and my legs are tired today.
So for today I will go for an easy ride and that will be it ;)
Long swim with Martine
Last long ride before Tremblant. Kinda hot once again
There we go, the long run is done :D It was not an easy day, I didn't feel like doing any speed work at all and I had some on the plan. I started running and realized that my back would give me a hard time today, so I decided to just run it easy instead of pushing the pace. I really think it was a good idea because my back did hurt the entire run which is not that fun. Now I gotta nurse that back for the next two week to get back like if I was 20 ;)
Run with Alex at the track, I was feeling tired today.
A ride after work. I was squeezed on time so I did a bit shorter. But I did my hill repeat at least :) 10 * 1:30Z4 with 2m rest. 5 seating 5 standing
Swim with the club

Larry Craig is a Friend of the Series of Tubes, Though He Says Otherwise
Last night, Larry Craig and his wife sat down with Matt Lauer to discuss the senator's sex scandal. At one point, Lauer asked Craig if he knew the Minneapolis airport bathroom he was caught in is a hot spot for gay sex, a fact Craig would presumably find on the internet.
Craig responded, "Matt, you won't believe this. But I don't use the Internet. I don't have a computer at my desk. I've never used the Internet. It's just not what I do."
Huh. Is Craig really at Ted Stevens' level of online illiteracy? Thanks to the folks at the Washington Examiner, we know he's not.
According to them:
- Craig is a member of the Congressional Internet Caucus.
- He co-sponsored a bill designating June 2007 as National Internet Safety Month.
- He was presented with the 2007 Internet Keep Safe Coalition Award.
- On his Web site, he lists as a top accomplishment a Silver Mouse Award given to his site in 2003 and 2006 by the Congressional Management Foundation in 2003 and 2006.
- When he endorsed Mitt Romney for president, he did so on YouTube.

c.1400, "faculty of perception," also "meaning, import, interpretation" (especially of Holy Scripture), from Old French sens "one of the five senses; meaning; wit, understanding" (12c.) and directly from Latin sensus "perception, feeling, undertaking, meaning," from sentire "perceive, feel, know," probably a figurative use of a literally meaning "to find one's way," or "to go mentally," from PIE root *sent- "to go" (cf. Old High German sinnan "to go, travel, strive after, have in mind, perceive," German Sinn "sense, mind," Old English sið "way, journey," Old Irish set, Welsh hynt "way"). Application to any one of the external or outward senses (touch, sight, hearing, etc.) in English first recorded 1520s.
A certain negro tribe has a special word for "see;" but only one general word for "hear," "touch," "smell," and "taste." It matters little through which sense I realize that in the dark I have blundered into a pig-sty. In French "sentir" means to smell, to touch, and to feel, all together. [Erich M. von Hornbostel, "Die Einheit der Sinne" ("The Unity of the Senses"), 1927]Meaning "that which is wise" is from c.1600. Meaning "capacity for perception and appreciation" is from c.1600 (e.g. Sense of humor, attested by 1783, sense of shame, 1640s).
"to perceive by the senses," 1590s, from sense (n.). Meaning "be conscious inwardly of (one's state or condition) is from 1680s. Meaning "perceive (a fact or situation) not by direct perception" is from 1872. Related: Sensed; sensing.
sense (sěns)
Any of the faculties by which stimuli from outside or inside the body are received and felt, as the faculties of hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste, and equilibrium.
A perception or feeling that is produced by a stimulus; sensation, as of hunger.

IMO I think other deals won't take long to come out of the woodwork. ee |

Private Prison Savings Are a Hoax
by Clyde Weiss | May 19, 2011
A report today by The New York Times – confirming what AFSCME has said all along – indicates it actually costs taxpayers more to let private prison corporations run state correctional facilities than it does to operate them using public service workers.
The Times report, based on data from the Arizona Department of Corrections, makes clear the financial case against prison privatization:
"… privately operated prisons can cost more to operate than state-run prisons – even though they often steer clear of the sickest, costliest inmates."
In that case, how do these private companies get in the door if they don't really save taxpayers money? AFSCME, which represents 62,000 corrections officers and 23,000 corrections employees nationwide, has looked into how private prison operators grease the wheels of government to get their lucrative contracts. Our new report, "Making a Killing: How Prison Corporations are Profiting from Campaign Contributions and Putting Taxpayers at Risk," tracks the flow of campaign contributions from these companies to public officials.
What we found is that America's largest private prison companies "pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into the campaigns of governors, state legislators, and judges" to gain their favor.
The Times report explains how these companies skewer the books to make it look like they save taxpayers' money. In effect, prison privateers steer clear of those inmates that cost more – the sick, the elderly, even those with "limited physical capacity and stamina." the Times says. Taxpayers get stuck with those inmates, and their costs. Where are the savings that are supposed to justify turning prisons over to for-profit operators? They don't exist!
The time has come to end this failed social experiment and provide public correction departments with the resources they need to run secure state prisons.
Read more about that report here. Also, learn more about prison privatization here.

Doula, what they do! Faq's
Friday, 27th June 2008
What is a Doula
Due to the amount of questions we get asked about (what is a Doula) and what they do, we thought we'd do a special interview all about the job of a Doula.
In this interview we spoke to Valerie Goedkoop who started getting interested in childbirth a few years ago when she saw friends and relatives having babies in sometimes difficult or unfulfilling situations.
Then, she had her first two children, both positive but very different experiences. After many years working for multi-national companies, Valerie left her managerial job in London including the stresses and decided to focus on her passion: pregnancy, labour and early years.
For many reasons, becoming a doula seemed to be the perfect job for her. As a doula she has supported over 70 families and continues to do so as an independent doula throughout the UK.
To find out more about Valerie why not visit her website at nurturingbirth.co.uk
Alternatively, to find out more about doula's why not visit doula.org.uk Or, listen to the full interview below.

CENTRAL FALLS – Crowdfunding is a success in Central Falls – the city reached its $10,044 goal through the out-of-the box funding mechanism of Citizinvestor.com to pay for artful, culturally relevant and environmentally important trash and recycling bins for Jenks Park.
"It took us a little by surprise – we reached our goal 17 days early," said Central Falls Director of Planning and Economic Development Stephen Larrick. The crowdfunding project was scheduled to wrap up Dec. 22 in the all-or-nothing format of citizinvestor.
"We got a few bigger donations that put us over the top," said Larrick. "Students the Segue school raised $500." That's Segue Institute for Learning, a charter school for 6th to 8th grades in Central Falls.
The park renovation project got an anonymous donation of about $2,000 and a legislative grant though state Rep. Agostinho Silva, D-Central Falls, said Larrick.
The Steel Yard will submit a timeline in early January for design of the sculptural bins. The community will have input in the design process.
Of the total funding, the project cost is $9,300 with 5 percent to Citizinvestor and 3 percent to pay for credit card servicing for the online donations.

Drupal 7 : Main menu is a list - not tabs
Category: Drupal 7
Using Bartik theme, the main menu is a list in the upper right of the header region. How can the main menu be displayed as a tabbed horizontal menu along the bottom of the header region ?
Hello jwf3148, By default, the Bartik theme automatically generates a tab menu item for a content item (article, page, etc) when that item has the main menu selected as its 'Parent Item'. The tabbed area is not part of the header area itself. The area where you see the list of menu items in the upper right is the header area. It is a bit confusing, but you can see the layout of the content blocks for the Bartik theme here: Resoultion
Best Regards, Scott M |

A Former Web Executive Reboots With Artisanal Foods
byAt the height of the first great dot-com boom, Craig Kanarick, then in his early 30s, was running Razorfish, a Web design firm he'd co-founded with an old friend, which at its peak had 2,300 employees in nine countries. Its client roster included IBM, Ford Motor, and AOL, and its stock market valuation was $4 billion. By the time Kanarick left in 2001, after the bubble burst, the company was valued at $9 million.
In the following years, Kanarick built up design teams for such companies as Blockbuster and Samsung Electronics, headed two digital divisions within the Rockwell Group architecture firm, and consulted with a number of Web startups. But it was the nine months he spent interning in Mario Batali's kitchen, in 2001, that provided the inspiration for his recently launched business called New York Mouth.
A year and a half ago, trekking out to Brooklyn, as he did most weekends to buy small-batch pickles, beef jerky, and other craft foods from farmers' markets and young boutiques, he saw a way to improve the nonexistent supply chain for hipster food products, whose old-timey quality too often came with a 19th century sales model.
"What was missing was a place where you could actually go and buy those things," says Kanarick, now 45. "A lot of these people are really good at making food, but not great at building business, websites, customer service, and distribution."
New York Mouth, an e-commerce site Kanarick launched in February, streamlines the process, curating a selection of independently made, small-batch foods, such as Brooklyn Roasting Co. coffee and Hoskins Berry Farm blackberry vinegar. It carries around 400 products and ships all over North America. The company is operating with eight employees and largely off investments from friends and family. Kanarick claims that monthly sales are growing by double digits and predicts that New York Mouth will be profitable by the end of the year. (Based in New York City, the company is offering a promotion on NY Centric Taste packs, with partial proceeds going to Hurricane Sandy relief at City Harvest and City Meals on Wheels.)
A serial entrepreneur ("It's in your blood, your soul"), Kanarick's happier now than he's been in a decade. "I found the perfect way to combine my love of digital, startups, and food," he says. "It's a blast, and I no longer have to go to Brooklyn to get this stuff."

RotopaX Gas and Liquid Packs are rotationally molded for superior strength and a leak-proof design that puts to shame traditional blow-molded carriers, like cheap gas cans. Those traditional gas cans and packs have thinner walls and weaker construction that wear out fast. Their colors fade, and they leak at the cap. RotopaX have solid thick walls and extra threads with a sure-seal gasket, guaranteeing it will not leak or vibrate loose. The rotational molded design strengthens construction and is made from colorfast materials, so they're less prone to fading or wearing out. Hold one in your hands, and you will feel the immense difference in quality over those cheaper liquid cans. The RotopaX packs feel solid, like you could run them over with a truck and they wouldn't leak a drop.
RotopaX ingenious modular system design allows you to customize their packs in multiple different ways to fit your different needs. Just pop the two plastic clamps off, switch out the two gallon pack with a different one, put the clamps back on and your good to go. It only takes seconds to switch out, and now you've got tools, water, gas, oil, diesel, kerosene, or whatever else you can think to put into one of the two-gallon packs.
RotopaX also attach to a wide array of OEM and after-market mounting brackets, and utilize their own RotopaX mounts for a tight and secure attachment wherever you decide to mount them. The unique design of the packs and the mounts allows them to be stacked on top of the other for a lockable secure fit, even in the bumpiest of conditions.
