Is anyone out there going to even try to help me!!!
I have a 1yr old cat and a 17 week old kitten. We feed the cat a indoor formula and the kitten a kitten formula. my problem is that the wiskers (cat) wants to eat the kittens (freckles) food and freckles wants to eat wiskers. wiskers isn't eating anything but the kitten formula but the kitten is eating both.
I have heard that if you put water and lemon juice together and spray it in the cats mouth when they are doing somthing bad that they will stop doing it. Is that true and does lemon juice hurt the cat.
i need some way of getting them both to eat thier own food because the kitten is to young to eat the cat formula food.
If you have any ideas please help.
I have tried to have them eat in different rooms and even at different levels but my cat wiskers still finding it and eating it no matter what.
I have two cats, they are a year apart in age. When I got Sunkist (my youngest) Winnie (the oldest) was on regular food, but kitten food was what she wanted. I tried everything to get each cat to eat the food they were supposed to eat.
What I ended up doing was:
I fed Winnie her adult food in the kitchen. Winnie is a pig and she eats her food right away, so there wasn't that much left for Sunkist to eat.
Sunkist's food was put inside a closet with her water. I had the door open enough so Sunkist could fit in, but Winnie couldn't. I had to use weights so Winnie couldn't push the door open any wider.
This worked until they were roughly the same size, at which time Sunkist was older enough to switch to adult food. To this day, Winnie is interested in what food is in Sunkist's dish and Sunkist is interested in what is in Winnie's dish...which makes no sense to me as it's the exact same thing.
I was fortunate that I only had to figure out a way to keep Sunkist out of Winnie's dish, unlike your problem where each cat needs to stay out of the other's dish. Maybe by separating them into different rooms and making it hard for the older cat to get to the kitten's food, the older cat will go back to eating her own food...and the kitten will have to eat the kitten food that's in an area the older cat can't get to.
I tried quite a few things before I came up with this idea. Watching them eat to make sure they stayed out of each other's dish wasn't an option, as Sunkist is a grazer eating a mouthful every now and then and Winnie just inhales the stuff.
Hope this helps.
The only thing you can do is to keep them separated during feeding. Keep one in the bathroom or somewhere while the other eats. Nothing else you can do. It won't hurt them to cry while the other is eating. Most people with a young animal and and older one go through this until the younger one can eat the adult food.
Also, Never, ever, squirt lemon in their mouths. They will associate this with thinking they are bad for eating, period.... They don't know the difference between foods, only you do! Separate them and then you don't need to be doing any disciplining.
One more thing....
You need to be more patient on this forum. There is not always a lot of people on here at once, and the ones on may not know the answer to your question.
Cats only have nine lives because they stole them from dogs!Teehee
Hi! I'm sorry I'm not always in front of the computer. You may see me logged on, but I tend to check all the new posts and then leave the computer on while I go about my other activities, checking back from time to time. When I'm at work, I am fortunate in having a computer in front of me but my employer is funny in that he expects me to be working. Weird, huh? But in between duties, I can manage to sneak peeks and often take my breaks at my desk.
As young as your older cat is, I don't really see the harm if Winnie does manage to get some of the kitten's food. Feeding them in separate rooms is a good idea too. The kitten food is a higher protein formula for a developing kitten, but a 1 yr old is not going to be injured by it. On the other hand, the kitten does need the extra.

Old Fashioned Chocolate Molasses Cookies
3/4 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp cocoa
3 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
Cream shortening, sugar and molasses together.
Add egg and vanilla.
Sift flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda together.
Stir into the creamed mixture alternately with the milk until well mixed.
At this point you can make drop cookies by dropping rounded teaspoonfuls of the dough on a baking pan lined with parchment paper or add enough flour to make a dough that can be rolled, then cut with a cooky cutter.
Bake at 375º for 10 to 12 min.
Frost with a plain vanilla icing.
Vanilla Icing:
2 cups icing (powdered) sugar
1 1/2 to 2 tbsp softened butter
1 tsp vanilla
3 to 4 tbsp milk
Combine and stir till smooth and well blended. If necessary add more icing sugar or milk for spreading consistency.
Approx 2 doz..but then my cookies were rather on the large size..just like I remember them:)

My Grandma Ediger used to make a very similar sounding/looking cookie. We have never been able to find the recipe or create anything similar. Until today. I think this might be it. I will know after I make them and taste! Thank you, thank you, thank you!ReplyDelete
these look and sound amazing. I can't wait to try the recipeReplyDelete
Molasses cookies are my favorite (in particular the "moose hunters" from my time in NS), and these look so good! I may have to try them! I'm in the process of making a blog of my grandma's recipes (she passed away 3 1/2 years ago) that she had written in an old scribbler & pretty much anything she could find to write on too.ReplyDelete
My recipe includes cinnamon and the dough tastes ALOT like tootsie rolls! Its amazing.ReplyDelete
ohhh, yum, and icing no less... and soft and ohhh yummy... this looks like it could be a family fav just by the picture...ReplyDelete

I am so glad I stumbled upon your blog. My husband loves the taste of molasses. I will have to make these cookies for him. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete
My imagination is working overtime, I think I can smell them - mmmmm! Can't wait to try them. When I saw your post this morning I decided these were going to be my new cookie to try this Christmas. My mom and grandmother took a basic school scribbler and wrote their recipes in them. But there are loose bits of paper stuck in here and there.My mother has my grandmother's and I hope to inherit them both some day.ReplyDelete
The scent alone makes this recipe worth trying. Leave the windows ajar...the neighbors will come by for sure!ReplyDelete
My mum wrote her recipes on scraps of paper & backs of envelopes too ...&...I do now as well.ReplyDelete
Have a lovely day...& thanks for keeping the recipes coming...love your site...hugs ..Robyn :)
This is a combination I have never before heard of,but,a cookie and with icing no less has to be good.ReplyDelete
I just found this lovely blog and am thankful for all the old recipes and memories they bring. Mom grew up in the Ukraine and Mennonite Relief placed them with farmer relatives in Manitoba after the war. I was born in Winnipeg. We moved to the US in the late 50s when Ford hired my Dad away from CPR. I just found and rescued my Mom's recipe file with those slips of paper recipes and hope to gather together favorites for a memory book for the girls. I'm having such fun reading through your recipes. blessings from Alaska. AngelaReplyDelete
Ladies... thank-you for all the wonderful recipes that you share. These cookies look so yummy that I'm going to try it this holiday season. I host Thanksgiving at my home every year with about 25-30 family and friends in attendance. Going through your site, I found several other recipes that I'll have to try. Thanks again for sharing.ReplyDelete
They do look good. Glad you found that piece of paper :0)ReplyDelete

I make molasses cookies for the holidays, however, I've never even thought of combining molasses with chocolate...brilliant!! WONDERFUL photo too.ReplyDelete
Molasses cookies with cocoa, wow! Saving and trying these. Just about molasses anything is a huge hit with me. Ole Sweetie-Pi will be smiling BIG because of the chocolate. Looks as if we both win on this delicious sounding treat. And frosted to boot.ReplyDelete
I made these yesterday. Very easy and as wonderful as they look!!ReplyDelete

Could you please add the recipe for vanilla icing? Thanks.ReplyDelete
Betty, I am tagging this one. I have had these I think, but now I have the recipe. Wishing I had one right now. KathyReplyDelete
Do you cream the molasses with the sugar and shortening? Does it just count as a "sugar"?ReplyDelete
And my dough was really soft; almost the texture of whipped frosting. The cookies turned out well, with a very cakey texture.
The molasses flavor wasn't very strong, but I might have been just short of a 1/2 cup as I used up a jar.
And I LOVE this blog. Thank you so much for putting all the time and effort into it.
Yes Beth you mix the sugar, molasses and shortening together..I had missed typing that but have corrected it now.ReplyDelete
Yes the dough is softer but it worked well for me too. I thought the molasses flavor was strong enough, maybe different type of molasses?

Discussing homelessness is like acknowledging the elephant in the room. We all know it's there, yet few will go far enough to acknowledge the issue or propose a change.
Homelessness needs to be discussed. Last November, 450 individuals in Portland utilized homeless shelters. On Dec. 21, the annual Homeless Persons' Memorial Vigil remembered 30 individuals who passed away in 2012 and were part of Portland's homeless community.
Working with this community, I feel compelled to speak up and voice my concern. Fortunately, others are speaking out as well. While the issue of homelessness is slowly gaining momentum in the local media, one California lawmaker attempts to bring the discussion one step further.
One California lawmaker is attempting to create new legislation titled the Homeless Bill of Rights.
This proposal would give legal protection to the homeless from unwarranted harassment from police and government. Homeless individuals would be allowed to engage in life-sustaining activities, including sleeping, congregating and panhandling in public.
Opponents of this bill told The Sacramento Bee that it may "violate the rights of other Californians by giving the homeless legal permission to congregate, sleep and sustain themselves on public property." I ask: If "other Californians" were to suddenly find themselves homeless, would they not want these rights? I would.
A Homeless Bill of Rights should be proposed in Maine. Perhaps if those who are struggling were allowed to come out from hiding, the sheer magnitude of the issue would be revealed and something might be done about it.
We don't discriminate on sex, race, religion or sexual orientation. Why should we discriminate against the homeless?

Munjoy Hill performance venue poses parking puzzle
Many challenges lie ahead for creating a new performance hall, with 400-plus seats and a 200-seat Promenade Room, at the St. Lawrence Arts Center on Munjoy Hill.
Parking, however, will be one of the biggest challenges.
It is rare to find a performance venue in a crowded residential neighborhood. The 2010 Transportation Demand Management Plan for the arts center took this into account.
The plan included alternatives to street parking near the arts center: parking along the Eastern Prom, in lots in the Eastern Promenade Park, along Cutter Street, at the Adams School site and at the lot owned by Theriault/Landmann Associates.
Also included were extended Metro hours, parking at nearby garages and lots and shuttles between off-site locations and the arts center. A new TDM Plan will be submitted in the approval process for the arts center.
Some questions need answers. How far will folks be willing to walk once they've found a parking space, especially in foul weather? Where will people find shelter while waiting for a shuttle? How much will parking be affected by streets clogged with plowed snow? How many shuttle buses will be needed?
What is a logical, reasonable and workable parking solution? The hodgepodge of solutions in the 2010 TDM Plan is probably not the answer.
A solution that does not cause chaos in the neighborhood or undue hardship for arts center patrons may entail a smaller venue — still beautiful and self-supporting, as it would involve lower building costs and operating costs.
The arts center's approval process will be discussed at the quarterly meeting of the Munjoy Hill Neighborhood Organization at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at the East End School. The meeting is open to the public.

'Green' energy producers merit boost in financing
There is currently legislation pending in both the U.S. House and Senate to level the playing field in terms of financing vehicles available for renewable energy.
The Master Limited Partnerships Parity Act would allow green, renewable-energy producers access to instruments currently available to fossil fuel producers (coal, oil and natural gas) in the capital markets.
It is time to do more to assist entities seeking to produce renewable, pollution-free energy.
As Maine considers huge offshore wind projects that would cost well into the millions of dollars, it is easy to see why green, renewable ventures deserve every advantage now available to fossil fuel energy producers.

Parents of gifted teen laud Baxter Academy's approach
As a parent of a gifted and talented student from Regional School Unit 5 (Freeport, Pownal and Durham), I support the new charter high school Baxter Academy in Portland. This is a public, tuition-free, project-based regional science, technology, engineering and math school.
Currently, our daughter receives no gifted and talented services at Freeport High School. Because of budget cuts and the lack of foresight by administrators, our best and brightest are failing to achieve their full potential.
My husband and I do not wish to sacrifice our daughter's education and are tired of the current school leaders' lip service. She is entering the 10th grade and has applied to Baxter.
At Baxter, she will have the ability to intern at Maine Medical Center in order to explore medicine. Also, she will be attending the University of Southern Maine for music and advanced language and continue to pursue her art through the Maine College of Art. All of these, along with engineering and computer companies, will have strong partnerships with the school.
The school itself will be a small, close-knit community of teachers and students who support each student and relish their unique contributions.
Baxter Academy is a welcome opportunity for those 10th-graders who are either gifted and talented or high achievers who are motivated to pursue their dreams with much vigor. Our daughter is looking forward to this new, exciting and innovative school experience.
The deadline for letters of intent is March 1.
I urge parents of other 10th-graders to fill out their letters of intent now so that they can be sure to secure a spot for their child. By doing so, you can offer your 10th-grade son or daughter the gift of ingenuity, progress and promise to achieve their greatest potential.

German Collections Society Trying To Collect For Performances It Has No Rights Over
from the how-it-all-works dept
In the case of GEMA, unfortunately, German courts have agreed. The burden isn't on GEMA to prove that GEMA-covered music was performed -- but on the accused to prove that no GEMA-covered music is performed. Now, Wolfgang Senges alerts us to a rather ridiculous scenario. There's a startup, Jamendo, which has received a fair amount of press coverage, for offering a place for musicians to offer up their music under a Creative Commons (or similar) license. Artists uploading their works who want to offer a commercial license option (on top of the free option) have to show that they are not covered by a collections society like GEMA. As part of the commercial offering, Jamendo offers up a license showing that the music is not covered by GEMA. This is so that any establishment using Jamendo-licensed music can "prove" that the music wasn't covered by GEMA.
But, here's the fun part. According to Senges, GEMA refuses to recognize the license. That is, if you're a business that specifically licensed all the music you use from Jamendo, when GEMA comes calling to demand a blanket royalty fee, you should be able to show GEMA the license from Jamendo, showing that the music you play is not covered by GEMA and thus GEMA has no right to collect. But, GEMA refuses to recognize the license, and insists that every performance requires the venue/artists to fill out GEMA's forms about every song, to show that it's not covered by GEMA, or the group insists it has the right to collect, thanks to a legal ruling that states:
Because of the large and comprehensive repertoire GEMA manages, at performances of national and international dance and entertainment music there is an actual assumption militating in favour of the existence of a liability fee.Oh, and lest we forget, it appears that even if you do fill out GEMA's own forms listing out all the non-GEMA music you played, you have to pay GEMA to file the forms. So... you end up paying no matter what.

2000 Truck and SUV GuidePosted in Project Vehicles on January 1, 1999
Many car enthusiasts insist some period in the past was the golden age of cars and trucks. Different enthusiasts might think the ultimate cars were the classics of the'30s, the finned luxo-barges of the '50s, or the muscle cars of the Sixties, but they all agree that the cars of today just can't compare. That's not true in the 4x4 business. Just about everyone agrees that today is the golden age of four driven wheels.
Having said that, it's not like we don't appreciate our heritage of military Jeeps, Dodge Power Wagons, early Broncos, the original Chevy Blazer, and dozens of other great 4x4s of the past. It's just that the variety and scope of 4x4 offerings has never been greater than today. Consider, for example, Chevrolet. Thirty years ago, GM's biggest division offered four-wheel-drive only in pickups, Blazers, and Suburbans. In 2000, Chevy offers off-roadable vehicles ranging from the micro-sized Tracker through the compact S-10 pickups and Blazers and on to the full-size Tahoes, Suburbans and pickups. Dodge and Ford have similarly expanded their offerings over time, and luxury manufacturers who never would have even considered building a 4x4 30 years ago (BMW, Lincoln, Cadillac, and so on) now count on them to add to their bottom lines. If there isn't a new 4x4 out there for you, you don't really want a 4x4.
The big challenge today is finding out exactly what is a 4x4. There's no doubt the Jeep Wrangler is a true off-road machine or that the Range Rover can traverse awesome terrain while maintaining a sumptuous environment, but what about the Subaru Outback? It's a jacked up station wagon with all-wheel drive and some rugged decoration. Does that make it a true off-roader? For people who consider off-roading a muddy road, yes. For those for whom anything not boulder-strewn may as well be a freeway, no. We wouldn't go pounding through a Florida bog in a Lincoln Navigator, and would feel pretentious driving up to Spago in a Hummer, but both are legitimate 4x4s.
It's up to you to decide what constitutes a true 4x4. Our job for the next several pages is to put them all in front of you. We've taken the loosest definition of off-roader we ever have in order to present you with the most options.
Select from the manufacters listed below to have a look at the 2000 offerings.

For one woman attending the circus over the weekend, the most gasp-worthy moment happened after the show.
Jenna Krehbiel headed to the women's bathroom after the show at the Isis Shrine Circus performance on Saturday in Salina, Kansas, and ended up face-to-face with a full-grown tiger.
"I went in to use the bathroom, and a lady came in to get her daughter out and said there was a tiger loose," Krehbiel told the Salina Journal. "I didn't know it was in the bathroom, and I walked in the (open) door, which closed right after I had walked in.
"I saw the tiger; it was at most two feet in front of me, and I turned around calmly and walked back toward the door. Someone opened the door and said get out."
Krehbiel estimated the tiger was around 250 pounds, although it wasn't the largest cat in the show.
Chris Bird, the manager of the Bicentennial Center where the circus performed, said staff quickly barricaded the concourse after the tiger escaped during the show.
Bird said the tiger went into the bathroom, and while a security guard got people out one way, Krehbiel entered the other door.
"I am sure she saw the tiger because the bathroom is only 25 feet long," Bird said. "Once she saw the tiger, I'm sure she knew to go the other way. Overall, it was a scary, surreal moment. I am glad no one was hurt or injured."
Bird said a veterinarian checked out the tiger after it was recaptured.
Krehbiel's spoke to circus personnel after the incident, who told him the tiger was well trained and there was no risk.
The couple's 3-year-old daughter, meanwhile, had different concerns.
"My daughter wanted to know if it had washed its hands," Krehbiel said. "That was her only concern. I think that shows the thoughts of children and that they wouldn't have known there was danger."

Raw is not expensive.
I fed raw for about 6 months and it was MUCH more expensive here than kibble... eventhough I did buy in bulk. I pay about $90/month to feed 4 dogs with Canidae. On raw I was feeding at least double that for a variety of meat.
What were you buying? I spent about $25 last week ( I did run into a wondeful sale) and brought home enough meat for a month for my 3. I picked up pork, beef and chicken. I usually spend no more than 40 a month for the 3.
Holy Cow! We pay about $1.29-1.39/lb for chicken thighs/wings/quarters(.59 for chicken necks) and anywhere from $1.89 up for beef parts.
Each dog was eating approx 1 pound of food a day.
Occasionally, we could get 1 lb packages of ground turkey for $1.... so I'd stock up on those.
I mispoke (miswrote?) too when I said $90 for Canidae-- we're actually going through two 40lb bags a month, so it's more like $60/month.

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is an unexplained death usually during during sleep of an otherwise healthy baby under a year old. SIDS is a subcategory of SUID, which stands for Sudden Unexpected Infant Death. Other subcategories of SUID include hypothermia or hyperthermia, metabolic diseases or accidental suffocation. If an infant death is investigated and reported, and no explanation is found, it is classified as SIDS.
Here are the facts about SIDS:
- It is the leading cause of death in children between the ages of one month and one year.
- The current official total of deaths specifically attributed to SIDS was 2,327 in 2006, yet the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that as many as 1,164 additional seemingly healthy babies under a year will also die unexpectedly .
- The deaths peak between the ages of 2 and 4 months.
- Ninety percent occur before 6 months of age.
- The condition hits boys more than girls, particularly Native American and African-American babies.
- Another vulnerable population is premature/low birth weight babies and infants whose mothers did not have prenatal care, or who smoked.
- SIDS is not caused by vomiting or choking
- SIDS is not caused by diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus (DTAP) vaccines or other immunizations
- SIDS is not child abuse or neglect

Did you catch the space shuttle launch this morning? If you missed watching the launch live, you can watch a video of it here. Today's launch was the last ever launch of NASA's space shuttle Endeavour. It first flew in 1992. For this last mission, Endeavour will be taking scientific equipment up the Space Station.
There are six astronauts aboard this flight; a commander, a pilot, three mission specialists and an astronaut from the Italian Space Agency. Endeavour's mission is scheduled to take 17 days with a planned landing date of June 1st. There are 4 space walks scheduled for this mission.
NASA has opened up a poll to vote on the song that will wake the astronauts up on two days during their mission. To listen to the songs and vote, go here. Vote today, the contest closes tonight!
Today's launch was the second to last space shuttle launch. NASA is retiring the Space Shuttle Program and plans on working with private companies to design new space transport systems. In the meantime, American Astronauts will travel to space and the Space Station with the Russian Federal Space Agency.

David Stanfield and Corky Carroll to serve as Masters of Ceremony
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. – A pioneering big wave rider, ASP World Tour veteran and genuine local hero join other legendary surfing icons as the 2011 inductees to the Surfers' Hall of Fame. George Downing, Taylor Knox and Chuck Linnen will have their hand and footprints immortalized in cement for the ages on Friday, August 5 at 10:00 a.m. in front of Huntington Surf & Sport (corner of PCH and Main). Famed sports announcer/commentator David Stanfield and five-time U.S. Surfing Champion Corky Carroll will serve as Masters of Ceremony. Information is available at http://hsssurf.com/shof.
The Surfers' Hall of Fame induction ceremony pays tribute to those individuals who have made an indelible mark on the sport, industry and culture of surfing. Annually, tens of thousands of visitors to Huntington Beach's downtown area literally walk in the footsteps of surfing superstars and legends from several eras including Laird Hamilton, Andy Irons, Jack O'Neill, Robert August, Bob Hurley, Sean Collins, Kelly Slater, Lisa Andersen, Pat O'Connell, Al Merrick, Shaun Tomson and Rob Machado who are already immortalized in cement.
Surfers' Hall of Fame founder Aaron Pai had this to say regarding the 2011 inductees, "George Downing is one of the all time greats. Taylor Knox from the new school has influenced an entire generation of surfers. Chuck Linnen is a home grown Huntington Beach Surfing Legend! We are extremely honored and looking forward to their inductions into the Surfers' Hall Fame this August!"
George Downing: Born in Honolulu in 1930, Downing began surfing Waikiki at age nine. Known as one of the original big wave riders with encyclopedic knowledge of the sport, he was among the first to ride Laniakea on the North Shore and Maui's Honolua Bay in the late 1940's. George went on to win the Makaha International in 1954, 61' and 65', finished seventh at the 1965 World Championships and second at the 1967 Duke. A keen student of weather and its impact on swell formation, he blended this knowledge with surfboard theory and construction, building innovative boards that allowed him to ride the biggest waves of the day culminating with 30 foot Makaha on January 13, 1958. Mentor to dozens of Hawaiian surfers over the years, Downing also worked as one of the famed Waikiki beachboys for more than three decades. The longtime contest director of the Quiksilver in Memory of Eddie Aikau event, George Downing holds an important place in surfing culture.
Taylor Knox: California native Taylor Knox has often been spoken of as a world title contender since he joined the ASP World Tour as a rookie in 1993. Part of 1990's "New School" crew that replaced the 80's power surfers, Knox was known for his rail-to-rail style of surfing. Although unable to garner consistent wins on the pro circuit, Taylor won the 1995 U.S. Championship and then led the 1996 American team to victory at the ISA World Surfing Games with his first place finish in the talent-rich men's division. In February 1998, Knox catapulted into the international spotlight by winning the inaugural K2 Big-Wave Challenge, an event that offered $50,000 to the surfer who caught the biggest wave of the winter and had photographic evidence. Knox unknowingly dropped into a 52-foot behemoth at Todos Santos that made him a mainstream media darling.
Chuck Linnen: A longtime Huntington Beach surfer, Chuck rode his first wave in 1954, was a men's finalist at the 1958 Oceanside Invitational and competed in his first U.S. Championships in 1959, held in his hometown. Linnen was among the first wave of California surfers to travel to the North Shore in the early 1960s and was a finalist at the 1961 world contest held at Makaha. He also competed at the 1964 world contest in Peru and was runner-up at the Malibu Masters event in 1973. Linnen helped shape the culture and character of Huntington Beach as a mentor and role model to local surfers—teaching future legends like Corky Carroll how to "shoot the pier." The "surf king" as many called him was a member of the Huntington Beach Surfing Association and 'The Boys of 55' surf club. A retired Irvine high school teacher, Linnen most recently held the NSSA Senior Champ and WSA Grand Master titles.
The nation's first imprint collection of legendary surfers, the Surfers' Hall of Fame celebrated its first induction in 1997 inside of specialty retailer Huntington Surf & Sport where several slabs remain. Four years later with the blessing of the City Council and a stunning bronze statue of sport's spiritual leader Duke Kahanamoku serving as a backdrop, the ceremony moved outside to the corner of PCH and Main; less than 100 feet from the famed Huntington Beach Pier, site of the U.S. Open of Surfing.

Forum Post: America's Economic Recovery Depends on Job Improvements for the Underemployed
Posted 6 years ago on March 15, 2012, 11:12 a.m. EST by XenuLives
from Charlotte, NC
This content is user submitted and not an official statement
Wal*Mart doing something good with all of its money?!? Next we'll hear about pigs flying!
from http://www.huffingtonpost.com/susan-dreyfus/americas-economic-recover_b_1343360.html
America's Economic Recovery Depends on Job Improvements for the Underemployed
Economic indicators continue to signal a U.S. economic recovery, with 243,000 new U.S. jobs added last month alone. The unemployment rate dropped to 8.3 percent -- the lowest in three years and state unemployment claims in many states continue to decline.
This positive outlook for the U.S. economy is tempered, however, by the growing realization that the rebound in unemployment is masking a disturbing trend -- the number of American workers who are underemployed. Currently, an estimated 19 percent of the U.S. workforce is made up of high-skill workers who are involuntarily working part-time or employed in low-wage jobs far below their skill level. In some states, such as California and Florida, that number is higher, with an estimated one in five workers in low-skill, low-income jobs.
A new report from the Annie E. Casey Foundation finds that 46 million Americans, many who are employed, still live at or below the poverty line. The number of children living in poverty rose 25 percent from 2000 to 2010. Three-quarters of these children had at least one parent working at a job. With an average salary of $22,000 per year or less for a family of four, they lack the means to pull themselves out of poverty.
Leanette Watkins, a single mother of three from Lynchburg, Va., illustrates the challenges working families face. Despite holding an associate's degree in secretarial science, she was forced to take on a number of low paying jobs to make ends meet -- working in a lumber yard, a candle factory and a series of temporary jobs. At each job she met with failure, not through a lack of hard work but through a series of personal crises -- she lost a child in a devastating house fire, her mother passed away, and she was caring for a brother who was ill. Exacerbating all this was her lack of transportation. She owned a car but it broke down repeatedly leaving her late for work when she needed reliable employment the most. "I was in a rut that I couldn't get out of -- each time I would take steps to move forward and dig myself out of that ditch but then my car would break down. I ended up owing more money than I was taking in, and I would find myself right back in that hole again."
While there are many programs that offer aid and assistance to the unemployed, there are fewer programs available that focus on the plight of the underemployed. For low-income working families who once made a good living, finding help is not easy and asking for help can be even harder. Many families fall victim to predatory lenders and the resulting bad credit can make it even harder to get ahead.
Yet there is help for credit-challenged, hard-working families like Leanette's. She was introduced to Ways to Work, a national nonprofit loan program that offers access to reliable transportation, financial counseling, and other engagement services to further strengthen families. Ways to Work provides low- to moderate-income families with low-interest loans for the purchase of reliable, used vehicles, thereby helping these families retain and improve upon their current job status, repair their credit history, and become financially self-sufficient.
Through the program administered by Presbyterian Homes and Family Services in Lynchburg, Leanette was able to purchase a reliable used car that helped her manage getting to work, getting her children to daycare and school and managing the family shopping and errands. She turned a temporary job at a law firm into a permanent one, doubling her salary in a short period of time. By not spending so much money on car repairs, she was able to save and repair her credit -- enough so that she could afford to put a down payment on a home. Her law firm is helping her attend college in the evening so she can earn a paralegal degree.
"Ways to Work helped me turn a job into a career," she notes. "The car was my stepping stone to turning my life around. It's given me the confidence and self-esteem to feel like a productive member of society again."
Like Leanette, families across the country are finding a hand up, not a hand out, through the Ways to Work program due to its comprehensive approach. Because the program is operated locally by nonprofit multi-service member organizations of the national membership association the Alliance for Children and Families, the agencies are adept at the kind of case management and engagement required to guide and support program participants toward long-term success. The discipline of a nationally replicated program, integrated with community-based human services providers is key to the Ways to Work formula.
An independent evaluation of the Ways to Work program from 2007-2010 conducted by ICF International found that clients reported an improvement in employment circumstances, credit history, financial capability and overall quality of life.
The study found that through the tested formula of a low-interest loan from Ways to Work and engagement from an Alliance for Children and Families member agency, more than half of those in the program increased their income and 94 percent improved their employment circumstances as a result of the loan. More than one-quarter credited the program for helping them increase their educational attainment. A significant percentage (82 percent) of participants were able to move off of public welfare programs, saving the federal government $18.2 million annually in reduced public assistance and higher tax revenue. Analysts calculate the return on investment for the program at 250 percent, or $2.50 for every $1 invested.
That's why the Walmart Foundation, Kresge Foundation, Annie E. Casey Foundation, and others have joined efforts to expand the capacity of the program to all 50 states, especially those where child poverty is greatest. Simply, this evaluation shows this program is a success. Using partnerships around the country, we must make sure it is accessible to many more motivated families. In fact, we need to significantly add to the current 32,000 families that have accessed more than $63 million in affordable loans.
The federal government is also supporting Ways to Work through the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, a program of the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Job Access/Reverse Commute program operated by the Federal Transit Authority.
True economic growth and recovery will ultimately depend on our nation's ability to utilize our workforce effectively. That means giving all Americans the capability and the opportunity to work at their full potential.
Susan Dreyfus is President and CEO of the Alliance for Children and Families, and is the former Secretary for the Washington State Department of Social and Health.

But I digress. Pnuematos is not just limited as a term for an aspect of the Trinity, it is also used as a term for the unseen aspect of human personality akin to the soul. It also is used as the term for a disembodied entity or force that can harass or possess individuals.
In the Christian Church the Holy Spirit is the loving and empowering persona of God made real to the individual. Depending on the individual church's doctrinal beliefs the Holy Spirit helps you to live a Christ like life or can empower you with supernatural gifts or the power of miraculous signs and wonders.
Funny thing is though, sometimes there is a spirit that embodies the congregation of a local church, but it is not the Holy One. I've been in a lot of different churches of various denominations. I've traveled all over the eastern
Sometimes you run into the oddest things…
I gave a Sunday Morning message to a church in upstate
"There is just something about that church." He said, "Within the last five years they have lost two pastors to affairs with women in the congregation. And there have been three other church lay leaders who have been caught cheating with fellow congregants in the past few years as well." I remember he grabbed my arm and leaned closer, "Watch yourself there, there is some sort of spirit at work in the congregation that seeks out church leaders and destroys them."
I smiled at him and assured him that there had to be just some sort of coincidence, he shook his head as if I were a lamb going blindly to the slaughter and walked away. Later as I prepared for the next morning in my hotel room I laughed it off. You meet all kinds of people in the ministry and a lot of them can see a demon behind every bush.
The next morning the service went on fine with no eerie feeling or anything happening out of the ordinary or unusual. No one in the congregation fell asleep during my message, which is always a good sign. I stood at the back of the narthex afterward to shake hands with everyone and they all were glad that I was there and enjoyed the message. In the line there was one young lady in her twenties who was absolutely stunning. She was a beautiful curvy blond who's looks movies stars would have envied. Her husband was definitely her equal in looks and style. As they approached they introduced themselves and shook my hand and that of the resident minister who stood next to me. As the young lady shook my hand she softly squeezed it repeatedly in a way that was provocative, with her middle finger swirling circles on my palm. As she did so she said with an overtly sultry voice, "I really enjoyed your message, I hope you can visit us again really soon."
I sort of froze there, really creeped out. Then I gave the honorary smile and said thank you. She kept looking over her shoulder at me the whole time she was in the hall. It would have been unnerving had the elderly minister had not have warned me the night before. But because he did so, it was definitely a bizarre "Twilight Zone" moment. You could feel a presence there, an unholy spirit that made the hair on the back of your neck stand up.
It did not stop there though. I went to meet with one of the church's governing board members at his home later that afternoon. As I drove up his 20 something daughter was sunbathing nude in the lawn beside the driveway. At first I thought I was mistaken and that it was a flesh colored bathing suit. But there was no mistake. Now they knew I was coming, so I doubt if it was accidental and that feeling was cemented when the board member had us seated by the window facing the lawn as we began to talk. I made it short and as I pulled out of the driveway I could not help but laugh at the pure insanity of the situation. It was like a bad B movie.
Some churches have unholy spirits abiding in their congregation. A lot of them are sexual it seems. I think it is because there is a lot of sexual suppression in the church, and it gives a gateway for manipulative entities to take control of normal urges and make them abnormal or obsessive. Is it mass possession? Generational? Those two families and the ones involved in the affairs with the church leaders were not related. A territorial entity then? I haven't the foggiest. But sexual spirits abiding in Christian church congregations as a whole are not rare in my personal experience.
I served for a short while as an Assistant Pastor in a church that was infested with sexual predators and sexual problems. When I first started the person who had the position before me had this odd young man give children's lessons in the morning worship. Within a few weeks I found out that he was a child molester. He had abused countless children in his extended family, many of whom attended this church. To make matters worse almost everyone at the church knew about this as, did my predecessor, yet they still allowed him to give children's sermons! I was astounded. I went to the Executive Pastor because at the time the State law mandated that any such incident be reported. So I reported it to him as the law stated. His reply was, "Wow, I am not going to let him be around my daughter anymore." And that was it! His family was prominent in the church and good tithers. So he pushed it under the rug.
The youth group at this church had many sexually active young teenagers and 13 to 15 year olds having babies. I used a seminary curriculum that I was trained on that step by step formed the foundation for a healthy self image then positive relationships between others and eventually responsible and healthy human sexuality. Everything was fine until I got to the human sexuality part and then suddenly there was a rumor going around the church that I was teaching the teens Sex Ed! We didn't even get to reproduction yet! Their children were becoming parents right before their eyes and a sexual predator was teaching children's church, but we could not even hint about morally responsible sexuality to the youth group without it being a major issue.
Finally I had enough and in less than a year I moved on to another church. Guess who they hired to replace me as Youth Group Leader? A young man who's family was one of the pillars of the church. He had been a girls swim coach and gym teacher at a local High School until he was caught having an affair with a 16 year old student. The girl's parents kept it quiet and did not press charges. But the whole church knew about it and welcomed him as the new leader of their young people. I never looked back and I have lost touch with the church, so I don't know what eventually happened with this new Youth Pastor. I would wager the outcome would not be encouraging to rationally minded souls.
But not all unholy spirits that abide communally in a church are sexual ones.
I came to the church in
Within a year the congregation grew to about 40 with attendances at Christmas and Easter over 100. That is where I met my friend who was a self proclaimed Satanist that I mentioned previously on this blog. He was the son in law of one of the church members and a former glam rock band member. He rocked pretty hard and taught me a few cords, when he showed up one Sunday I was glad- not because I had a Satanist at church- because I had a friend in the congregation. Gradually we had more people show up, but there seemed to be a problem. Not many came back. Even my glam rock friend. I came to find out that many of the initial 12 would point of the "sins" of these new guests and urge them to get their lives right with the Lord. Be it smoking, drinking, dancing or dating anyone who did…all of it was evil. And it was their duty as God's anointed to make sure the sinners knew it. The pinnacle of this spirit of judgmentalism raised its ugly head in a board meeting. I've told this tale in the comments section before. We had a country and western family band attend the church for a few months. They offered to play in the morning worship. Now, to be honest I really really do not like country music. Well, except for Johnny Cash, he was the Man. But of course I was thrilled that they would offer and so I told the board this exciting news at the next board meeting. But the problem was, the board members attested, that they had played at a Country Bar a few years ago. That would send the wrong message. The church had to stand for something after all. When I told them that it didn't matter if they had played in a bar the Saturday night before church we should still have them play, the Head Elder who was an old steel worker, jumped across the table with his hands sprayed out as if to try to strangle me. A verbal battle ensued which focused on who was holy enough to sing in church. I asked them how we were supposed to measure that. They gave a litany of things that would bar someone. Only those filled with the Holy Spirit could sing at church they said, someone who has consciously given themselves to God and is living a 'Holy' life. So I asked them, what about children? They are too young to make a decision about such deeply religious things, you can not verify that they are filled with the Holy Spirit. They thought about that for a moment. Then they made an official church ruling that children were no longer allowed to sing in the worship service. I held a vote, out of the seven of us only myself and an elderly Sunday School teacher voted against this ridiculous decree. That was the day I made up my mind to leave. The church had died because they had judged others and forced their views on guests instead of lovingly opening their arms and accepting those seeking spiritual growth. Even their own family members no longer attended.
Funny how my friend the self proclaimed Satanist was more Christlike than the Christians.
The most dominant unholy spirit in the church is the spirit of judgmentalism.
I could go on to other spiritual deficits that are obviously apparent to any, but you get the drift.
Are these just collective attitudes? I think they are far too destroying and powerfully pervasive to be just a collective blindness to moral equity.
There are spirits that hang over a church like a dark cloud. Sometimes you can feel them just when you enter the door. There is a lurking evil that thrives on destruction that manifests itself in so many negative ways. These communal spirits are just as dark, powerful and malicious as any demonic force that can harass or possess an individual.
And their deeds are more obvious.
I know a lot of you readers who dislike Christianity have been burned by the fire of these evil forces from the Pit of Hell.
I have too.
In these churches people might wear pins or have bumper stickers that say WWJD? What Would Jesus Do?, but in reality it should be WWSD? What Would Satan Do?.
At least then people would be actually doing what the phrase implies.
Until next time,Pastor Swope

After seven years running his own kitchen at Salt, his Upper Fells Point restaurant that put duck-fat fries, Wagyu sliders and changing menus on Baltimore's food map, Jason Ambrose is stepping aside.
Ambrose is turning over Salt's day-to-day kitchen operations to Brian Lavin, who joined the Salt team in 2010 and has been the restaurant's sous-chef for about a year and a half, according to Ambrose.
"I made a decision I was going to take a step out," said Ambrose. "Brian came to me as a line cook with a tremendous interest in food. He leans toward clean Italian type of food, but he's embraced the Salt attitude. It's a nice balance."
Ambrose said the 25-year-old Lavin, a native of Elkridge, is handling the job well. "He's been doing it for a few months," Ambrose said. "We discuss, collaborate. But with the exception of the Salt staples, the [new] menu is his."
For the time being, Ambrose has been working a night or two on the line, but Salt customers have recently started seeing him out front, hosting and manning the phones.
And what's next for Ambrose?
"I'm going to take the rest of the year and do a handful of stages outside of Maryland," he said. "Take some time to figure out what I'm going to do next."
"Stages," which Ambrose pronounced "stazh-is," is a culinary-world term. Basically, "staging" is working for free in another chef's kitchen.
"Also," he said. "I'm going to spend a little bit more time with my wife."
Salt is at 2127 E Pratt St. For information call 410-276-5480 or go to salttavern.com.
A new engineer Bradley Willits is the new executive chef at B&O American Brasserie (2 N. Charles St., 443-692-6172, bandorestaurant.com) in the Hotel Monaco. Willits is the third executive chef at the Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants property, which opened in 2009.
A Kimpton chef tends to stay a Kimpton chef.
Willits was chef de cuisine at Kimpton's Cobalt Restaurant and Lounge in Vero Beach, Fla., before coming to B&O to work as chef de cuisine under Thomas Dunklin, who is now with Kimpton in Portland, Ore.
But Willits also has a connection to B&O's first executive chef, E. Michael Reidt, now executive chef at Kimpton's Epic Hotel in Miami. Willits and Reidt got to know each other through visits to each other's South Florida properties. Willits said he considers Reidt a mentor.
"It was Reidt who inspired me to come to Baltimore," said Willits. A chef devoted to local cuisine, Willits needed some convincing about the bounty of Baltimore's region. Reidt convinced him.
"I think the world of him. He's a really, really talented guy," said Reidt, who credits Willits, in turn, with introducing him to purveyors and suppliers in South Florida when he moved there from Baltimore.
Only 31, Willits has more than 20 years of kitchen experience and education, having started his restaurant career at his father's cafe in Sarasota, Fla. His formative kitchen work was at Tango, a Vero Beach, Fla., restaurant, where he trained under Ben Tench.
Then, like many young chefs do, Willits hit the road, working in the kitchens of James Beard Award-winning chefs Jason Wilson (Crush, Seattle), Mike Lata (Fig, Charleston, S.C.) and Sean Brock (McCrady's, Charleston, S.C.)
Willits has now produced his first set of menus for B&O. "I'm trying to grab what Baltimore is all about," Willits said, "and combine it with how I cook, which is Southern. But I learned to cook from my grandfather, who is Italian. I want to incorporate all of that."
New at B George Allen is the new chef at B, a Bolton Hill Bistro (1501 Bolton St., 410-383-8600, b-bistro.com) A 2001 graduate of L'Academie de Cuisine in Gaithersburg, Allen worked as sous chef at Crush in Belvedere Square and Sabor in Timonium. B will celebrate its 10th anniversary this month.

The Oak Ridge Board of Education will have a choice to make but that choice, according to Board Chairman Keys Fillauer, will not be simple.
The Oak Ridge Board of Education will have a choice to make but that choice, according to Board Chairman Keys Fillauer, will not be simple.
The BOE is in the final stages of choosing a school superintendent to replace Tom Bailey, who will retire in a few weeks.
The five-member board has narrowed the field of potential candidates to three — all excellent candidates — Fillauer noted.
Ray and Associates Inc., a professional search firm based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, that conducted a nationwide search, recently presented background information on nine candidates which the Iowa firm had selected based on the qualities and criteria the BOE had requested.
The board then took several days of study and interviewed four candidates from that list, narrowing it to the final three. One candidate took himself out of the running because of salary-related issues.
Candidates who will now get a second look include Neland Clark, superintendent of South Harrison Community School in Corydon, Ind.; Roger Collins, superintendent of Nelson County Public Schools in Livingston, Va.; and Dan Lawson, superintendent of Tullahoma city schools. The following information was supplied by the search firm.
• Neland Clark has been superintendent of South Harrison Community School Corp. since July of 1996.
He lives in Corydon, Ind., with his wife of 40 years, Diane. The Clarks have three sons and six grandchildren.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The MIT men's water polo team welcomed some of the top teams from around the country to its annual Invitational Tournament at the Zesiger Center Pool over the weekend. The Engineers dropped all four of their games in the tournament, losing to the University of Redlands, Pacific, St. Francis and Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. Devin Lewis was the high scorer for Tech, totaling five goals over the four contests.
The Cardinal and Grey (0-4) opened the 2009 campaign against University of Redlands on Saturday morning. After falling behind, 3-2, in the first period, MIT managed to come back and tie the score at four entering the half. Tech held a 6-5 lead entering the final frame before surrendering three more goals to drop the 8-6 decision. Lewis led the way with three goals while goalie Columbus Leonard made seven saves in net.
The Engineers would lose their next two games of the day, falling to Pacific, 15-3, and St. Francis, 18-3. Brian Gardiner recorded a pair of scores and had two steals against the Tigers. Freshman goalies Matt Hohenberger and Kevin Hsiue saw their first action in net for parts of both games. Hohenberger stopped a total of five shots while surrendering six goals and Hsiue made three saves against seven goals against.
Hoping to salvage one win out of the opening weekend, MIT returned to the Zesiger Pool Sunday to face Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. The hosts opened up an early 3-2 lead that they would carry into the half, as both teams locked in defensively. However, the Engineers were unable to hold on, getting outscored 6-1 over the final 14 minutes, to fall 8-4. Mark Artz was a factor in every MIT goal, scoring three times and assisting on another. Leonard made 15 saves in the losing effort.
MIT will look to rebound at the Princeton University Invitational next weekend. The Engineers open up with Santa Clara on Friday, September 11 at 7:45 p.m. before taking on Bucknell and Johns Hopkins on Saturday. They then finish up the weekend slate against George Washington on Sunday morning.

My Various Hobbies...
I saw this yo-yo garland at the flea market in Hopkinsville. I have forgotten the exact price asked for it, but it was fairly expensive. It wouldn't be at all hard to make.
To make a yo-yo, simply cut a circle of cotton or cotton-blend dressweight cloth, about twice the diameter that you want the finished yo-yo to be. You might want to add about 1/4 inch extra. For example, if you want the finished yo-yo to be 1 inch across, make the circle about 2-1/4 inches in diameter.
Then, fold about 1/4 inch of the cloth's edge to the inside and make a gathering stitch all the way around the circle. Just turn the edge under as you go, and run the thread close to the folded edge. Secure the thread firmly where you start, and try to keep the stitches even as you go around.
When you've stitched all the way around the edge, pull the thread tight to gather the cloth and secure it firmly. That's a yo-yo.
Stitch a bunch of yo-yo's together end to end, and you've got a yo-yo garland like this.
The nice thing about yo-yo's is that you can put a dozen cloth circles and a needle and thread in a zip-lock bag and carry them around in your purse. Make a small cardboard H to wind some extra thread on and put it in the bag too. Whenever you have five minutes, make a yo-yo.

New cat worrier
Hello, I am trying to introduce my new cat to my first cat. They are both new to my home but my first cat was very social and easy going. Lily, my first cat was able to find a place easily. She has come from the animal shelter and responded well to coming home. However my newest cat who was given for free by her previous owner, AlG, is unable to find a place here. I live in a large home but am unable to give her her own seperate room to be in. The only other available room, which I did try already, is too cold for her to stay in. I am too worried that the AlG will be too cold to stay there unsupervised until she feels comfortable to explore the whole house. I have tried to quarantine her to let her feel comfortable but had no luck due to the drastic temperatures in both rooms. I have brought her in but I am confined to only one large room where I have both Lilys and AlGs food/water, litter and scratching posts. So far she has been hiding in the dark behind the couch or under the chair in the basement which is the colder room. I am trying to find a better way to introduce AlG to the house as as well as to Lily.
Lily who is 2 is more social possibly from being at the shelter and meeting many people from time to time. I was told that AlG has been an indoor cat for 5-6 years and had a previous playmate named Miko (also a cat).
I am very worried that AlG(cat in hiding) will not be able to eat or eliminate due to lack of her old playmate and home. I think that she has become so stressed from the car ride and introduction into a new home that she will not come around to me. She even refuses to look at me or anyone else and prefers to look at the wall. Should I try to quarantine AlG or Lily. I am concerned for the safety and well being of both cats and want them to get along nicely. Also I would like Alg to eat something soon or drink something, I believe that Alg is a bit dehydrated. please help.
ps sorry or the long post.im sort of new at this whole thing if there is any more information to know just let me know
Thank You
Hi, Just wondered if it would be possible for you to get a dog crate, kennel or cage for the new cat to be in (with food , water and litterbox), if only for a short time. That way, you would be able to socialize with it and make sure that it is eating and drinking.
so she found a few safe places make sure they are clean and have some blankets i wouldnt worry to much about cold if she has something warm to sleep in I am not sure how long you have had her. but give it a least a week
if there is no aggresion going on thats a good sign

Audi Tron Sailing Series - Lake Garda Destination
1 July 2014
Riva del Garda, July 1st 2014 – The Audi tron Sailing Series is getting ready for its final event. Acts in Naples, Porto Ercole and Talamone are now complete and the series organized by B.Plan Sport&Events (BPSE) in cooperation with Melges Europe now heads to beautiful Riva del Garda where the Melges 32s will be competing for the continental title and the Audi Melges 20s will be competing to crown yet another World Champion.
This is the last opportunity for the rival teams to get over the running leaders such as Valentin Zavadnikov's Melges 32 Synergy GT and Dario Levi's Audi Melges 20 Fremito d'Arja.
"No doubt the Audi tron Sailing Series is one of the most followed sailing events in the Mediterranean Sea. Our concept has been very appreciated by sailors, the visiting audience and our circuit partners that use it as a powerful communication and interaction platform," said Riccardo Simoneschi, BPSE president.
"Every season we have introduced new concepts to improve the events formula and implemented the delivery of an ethic and appealing message. This year such attitude has been fulfilled by the desire to manage a 100% environmentally friendly sailing circuit, it all came to reality thanks to the partnership between Audi and the Torqeedo company that has supplied all boats with electric outboards replacing the traditional fuel motors. Sixty green outboards have delivered a strong message to the sector opinion leaders spreading a new concept related to the sea and clean environment," continued Simoneschi.
"Events of this entity," says Simoneschi, "make sailing even more sustainable and trigger a cultural change and a new state of mind in all those that practice this sport with a competitive and professional approach. People that in this sense can become promoters of a new level of attention as far as environment matters. We are doing that thanks to the strong commitment of the Audi brand towards such topics."
The fourth stage of the coming Audi tron Sailing Series will be Lake Garda, precisely Fraglia Vela Riva as host. Racing starts with the Audi Melges 20s on the 11th-13th of July – the World Championship will be on the 25th-30th of August – while the Melges 32s will be racing the European Championship valid as the fourth act 16th-20th of July.
In addition to main sponsor Audi, the Audi tron Sailing Series is supported by logistic partners Kuehne+Nagel and Torqeedo electric motors. Technical partners such as the Ente Fiera di Genova, Nespresso, Olicor. Movidos, Norda and Frantoi Redoro.
