Rebecca Stees Channels Her Mojo
An Alameda visual artist brings compelling muses to life in her collages.
Rebecca Stees' Unusual Mojo series featured whimsical collages of figures she invited people to write stories about. The artist used her iPad to create all of the art.
Artwork courtesy of the artist
Rebecca Stees fondly refers to her distinctively figurative collages as creative characters, and she delights in how viewers explore and respond to them.
An artist for more than 25 years, Stees attended Parsons School of Design in New York City and the San Francisco Art Institute, where she was a contributing artist to The Potato Eaters, a college collaborative that created art in different media around the quirky theme of potatoes and finding beauty in the everyday world. As a contributing artist to that group, Stees exhibited throughout the country, including in galleries in St. Louis, Las Vegas, and New York. Soon after the cross-country tour, Stees found personal, professional, and creative fulfillment in becoming an art teacher.
A part of the local educational scene since 2003, Stees runs the popular Art Yowza camps, providing creative arts classes for kids over the summer and during holiday breaks. Stees also has taught art in Alameda public schools, thanks to support from the Alameda Education Fund, notably creating a dynamic school wall mural with a fourth-grade class.
As an art teacher, Stees surrounds herself with the typical physical tools of creating art—paints, brushes, and paper. However, when it comes to her own artwork, Stees uses an iPad as her palette. In her recent series Unusual Mojo, she created iconic and playfully figurative collages and colorful, ethereal abstracts born of pure imagination using Freemix, the free online art collage tool, and then printed the images on 8-inch-by-8-inch canvases.
Rather than express a point of view to an audience, Stees keeps quiet about the origins of her quirky characters and prefers that viewers create their own stories about her compelling little muses. The influence of dream work guides the images, she said, which were inspired consciously and unconsciously by her own lingering questions around current events and human nature.
"Mojo is about good luck, boosting confidence. These characters have their own charisma and resilience," she said.
The joy and passion she has for Art Yowza and the children it reaches are palpable in her voice. "Art is an avenue for children to find their self-esteem. That starts with someone saying, 'I believe in you. Your voice is important, and you can bring about change,' " she said.
Stees likes to lead her students through exercises that build empathy and equip them with tools of expression as well as the confidence to bring about positive change in their community. Toward that end, she has championed causes as varied as Operation Smile, the National Audubon Society, and Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter with her students.
As an artist and an educator, Stees loves to encourage exploration and action in her audience. "Creative courage is about taking risks—confidence as an artist to be able to use your gift, your mojo, out in the world."

You may have heard the hype revolving around "crystal healing" or the belief that gem stones contain healing powers. In ancient times, gem stones were used in different ways to cure varying health problems. Those suffering from ailments would wear the gem stones, drink a glass of water with the stone at the bottom, or even sleep with the stones underneath a pillow or nearby. There are some who still practice this tradition today and claim that gem stones, indeed, have healing powers. How can you know if they really do help? Try for yourself and see if you can tell a difference. Here are some common health problems and the gem stones that supposedly address them:
- Do you have trouble sleeping or suffer from anxiety? Put emerald, amethyst, or lapis beneath your pillow for a more meditative state and peaceful sleep.
- Are you looking for a way to remain mentally positive? Diamond, ruby, and topaz are believed to ward off negativity.
- Do you seek for wisdom and clarity of thought? Sleep with amethyst under your pillow for inspired dreams and thought.
- For help balancing your organs, including the liver, lungs, and heart, look to aquamarine or garnet.
- If you're worried about the effects of aging, try peridot instead of a new brand of anti-aging cream. It will supposedly slow aging and heal stress.
For more ideas on how to use gem stones for healing, look online. Have you tried crystal healing? Have you heard of anyone who uses it? Tell us what you think in the comments below.

Wilkie warns of totalitarian whistleblower bill supported by Liberal and Labor
In 2003 I resigned from my job as a Senior Intelligence Analyst to blow the whistle on the fraudulent claims the Howard Government was using to justify taking us to war in Iraq.
I've never doubted for one moment that what I did served the interests of my country and its people. Fast forward 15 years and I'm an Independent Federal MP representing the Tasmanian electorate of Denison.
Our Parliament is on the verge of passing draconian legislation that undermines government transparency, our civil liberties and freedom of the press.
Had this legislation (the Espionage and Foreign Interference Bill) been in place in 2003 when I alerted the Australian people to our government's Iraq War deceit, I'd have faced 25 years in prison.
click this link
Can you watch and share this video to make sure this anti-democratic attack doesn't fly under the radar?
I'm deeply concerned about the chilling impact this legislation will have on political debate in our country. Whistleblowers and journalists help us hold power to account, and when those voices are silenced our democracy suffers.
And it's not just whistleblowers and journalists who need to be worried about this legislation. Ordinary people participating in peaceful protest also risk being charged with serious offences. For example, if you or one of your loved ones blockaded the Adani coal mine, the Attorney General could choose to charge you with sabotage – which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
I don't know about you, but I don't think any single politician should have that sort of power.
Given the current state of global politics, it's disturbingly easy to imagine the Australian Government might try to follow the US into Donald Trump's first war. If that were to eventuate, do you want us to be a society that has criminalised whistleblowing?
The Turnbull Government looks set to pass this legislation next week, with the support of the Labor Party. Time is running out for us to make sure the Australian public know what is happening to our democracy.
Yours Sincerely,
Andrew Wilkie MP
Electoral Funding and Disclosure Reform bill to get rid of GetUp
Letter to the Editor
GetUp gears up to stop legislation designed to get rid of them. Campaign starts to ensure the ALP opposes it
Great, at last somebody has found some political guts to get rid of GetUp. George Soros, their main financier, will be livid; he has been funding terror campaigns world -wide including the ragtag Marxist GetUp mob in Australia.
George was found contributing towards Hilary's anti-Trump campaign and Obama's 30,000 strong mob of mad women and malcontent men trying to usurp the legitimate election of Trump by staging women's marches consisting the communist, atheist, anti-family horde of dykes, trannies and a few poofter terrorists thrown in.
Then there also is the other mob of anarchists Soros is funding in a direct attempt to overthrow Trump and his far stronger tens of million supporters. GetUp features in similar anti-Christian, anti-social activities across Australia usurping traditional ways of life practiced by the majority of Australians.
Look at what this bunch of anarchists did to Tony Abbott.
It propagates phony global warming and climate change theories when we are actually heading towards an ice age. Getup and the terrorist George Soros in Australia? No thanks!
For the first time I would support Liberal legislation designed to rid Australia of a terrorist organisation.

A healthy Great Barrier Reef spawns fictitious, costly scare campaigns
The never-ending battles of the Coral Sea
by Viv Forbes, science writer
For at least 50 years Australian taxpayers and other innocents have supported a parasitic industry in academia, bureaucracy, law, media and the tax-exempt Green Alarm "Charities", all studying, regulating, inspecting and writing about yet another "imminent threat to Queensland's Great Barrier Reef."
The Queensland Labor Party Government is about to embark on another reef-runoff onslaught against coastal farmers that is intended to close down farming along the entire coastline, from Cooktown to Brisbane.
It has become the never-ending battle of the Coral Sea.
The threats change, but there is always a doomsday forecast – Crown-of-Thorns, oil drilling, fishing, cane farming, coastal shipping, global warming, ocean acidity, coral bleaching, port dredging, chemical and fertiliser runoff, coal transport, river sediments, loss of world heritage status etc. Every recycled scare, magnified by the media and parroted by politicians, generates more income for the alarm industry, usually at the expense of taxpayers, consumers or local industries.
The reality is that sea creatures would starve in pure water – all marine life needs nutrients, salts and minerals. These come from other life forms, from decomposing rocks and organic matter carried to the sea by rivers, from dissolving atmospheric gases, or from delta and shelf sediments stirred up by floods, cyclones, dredging or coastal shipping. No one supports over-use of toxic man-made chemicals, but well-run cane, cattle and coal companies can co-exist with corals.
Corals first appeared 500 million years ago and have proven to be one of Earth's great survivors. They outlasted the Carboniferous Forests, the Permian and Cretaceous extinctions, the dinosaurs, the mammoths, the Neanderthals and the Pleistocene cycles of ice age and warming. They thrive in warm tropical water, cluster around hot volcanic fumaroles and survive massive petroleum spills, natural oil seeps, tidal waves and volcanic dust. They have even recolonised the Montebello Island waters devastated by atomic bomb testing in the 1950's.
The ENSO oscillation of blobs of warm Pacific water which caused recent coral bleaching can be identified in historical records for at least 400 years. Corals have survived El Nino warmings for thousands of years and they will probably outlast Homo Alarmism as Earth proceeds into the next glacial epoch.
See the Supercorals:
Corals do not rely on computer models of global temperature to advise them – they read the sea level thermometer which falls and rises as the great ice sheets come and go.
In the warming phase like the one just ending, ice melts, sea levels rise and the reef that houses the corals may get drowned. Corals have two choices – build their reef higher or just float south/inshore and build a new reef (like the Great Barrier Reef) in shallower, cooler water. When islands sink beneath rising oceans, corals may build their own coral atolls as fast as the water rises.
Then when the cold era returns, ice sheets grow, sea levels fall, and the warm era coral reefs get stranded on the new beaches and coastal plains. Usually the process is slow enough to allow the coral polyps to float into deeper warmer water closer to the equator and build another reef.
This eminently sensible policy of "move when you have to" has proved a successful survival policy for the corals for 500 million years.
Humans should copy the corals – "forget the computer climate models but watch real data like actual sea levels and . . . move when you have to.

Gay Greens and GetUp to call the gay marriage shots
from Larry Pickering, the last surviving iconic commentator, journalist and cartoonist
It's got me stuffed. Australians hardly ever pass changes in the law by ballot. They have on only 8 of 44 occasions, and although this survey is not a referendum, or even a plebiscite, the "survey" if successful, will lead to fully gazetted legislation. So why are 70 per cent of citizens going to vote yes? But is it really 70 per cent? Or is it really about the question the pollster asked?
More likely it is the question, a highly biased question designed to evoke only a "YES" answer: "Do you agree with marriage equality?"
That question will almost always get a "yes", and the GGGGLL will ride a wave of confidence all the way to where they want it to finish… and where they want it to finish they dare not tell you.
I read the question on the survey paper and it asks if you want the Marriage Act changed to accommodate gay marriage. That is not what will happen if a "yes" vote gets up.
In fact the Marriage Act will be abolished completely and a new gender neutral Act will be drafted by the Gay Greens in the Senate, an Act that will please only the wind chime and bong manufacturers in the inner suburbs of Sydney and Melbourne, Byron Bay and South Australia all over.
Ex PM Howard is right when he says that we need to see the legislation first, http://pickeringpost.com/story/okay-mal-just-show-us-the-bloody-bill-/7542 but people are voting already and what's to say the Gay Green Senate won't make amendments we will never know about until they become law?
They will get no resistance from Turnbull as he wants the whole gay crap off the table and forgotten about. And so do we. We have energy prices and the Zika Kid to entertain us… we are sick and tired of listening to moaning gay people and Sky and ABC interviewers agreeing with them.
On another part of the survey sheet I read, "If you make a mistake just ask us to send you another form". On another part is says the survey is 100 per cent anonymous, no names no addresses, no worries.
What a perfect set up for the devious and well-organised GetUp mob to easily skew the result. They will already have a dozen schemes in place.
The survey sheet is of such poor quality that any Asian printer could run off an undetectable few million. Any number of union-committed postmen could take every letter home or deliver them to GetUp's hard-working gnomes who distance themselves from Shorten and Wong.
This postal survey seems almost designed to be scammed.
And the cherry on the top is when the Government makes temporary laws (that will of course stay in place) where opponents of this scam can be fined $12,500 with an adjudicator by the name of George Brandis at the helm. He alone will decide if you are guilty of offending the "YES" brigade.
What more do you need to vote "NO"?
Or maybe you believe GetUp is an honest political pressure group? Or Maybe North Korea is a pacifist group? Or banks don't steal your money?
Maybe you really want these hairy arm-pitted, bare-titted sheilas and bare-arsed loony-tune, radical, pillow biters writing your marriage vows for you. If so, then vote "YES".
But I don't believe a "YES" vote will survive. If it does, we are not true-blue Australians. Because true-blue Aussies would never vote yes to something as full of holes and as deviously scammable as this.
A "YES" result could never be relied upon as even remotely accurate.
It's more likely to be a "NO" result that CAN be relied upon because real Australians would never align themselves with a decadent, illegal mob like the Labor Green's GetUp.
We are better than that,
…I think.
Millions take to the streets in Italy opposing mandatory vaccines for kids
This video has many clips of massive street marches across Italy in July this year waging war against the Italian government and its implementation of the New World Order.
This video without doubt proves conclusively all of Australia's major media organisations have colluded with the Liberal/Labor government to censor any anti-vaccination activities outside of Australia.
If any of our Australian readers have seen these demonstrations on any news bulletin please advise.
Malcolm and Lucy Turnbull have much to lose due to Lucy's directorship of a large pharmaceutical company.
We will follow up the Italian campaign as soon as we contact our European correspondent.
Soros and GetUp set to agitate Bernardi
GetUp Australia is billionaire George Soros' puppet cult. It is one of the most dangerous pressure groups (naïve students and Greens disciples) in Australia today. Canada and Hungary right now are moving to ban all George Soros funded organisations in their countries. Soros backed and funded Hilary Clinton's disastrous campaign to become US president. Soros has been found by US authorities to fund left-wing violent campaigns against Trump and the powerful firearms lobby.
Soros directly funded demonstrations to disrupt Trump's inauguration and also contributed towards the 'womens march' in the US, attended by hairy armpitted, hairy legged, pseudo-intellectual, chardonnay-sipping left-wing feminists who hate men with a passion.Below is the latest tirade from the Bolsheviks of GetUp:
George Soros funds violent left-wing demonstrations, Hilary Clinton and GetUp Australia
Right-wing Senator Cory Bernardi just announced he's leaving the Liberals to form his own 'Australian Conservatives' Party. Modelling himself on Donald Trump, Bernardi's agenda is one of hate, climate destruction and increasing inequality. His policies hurt people. And he's starting off with 50,000 followers and his "very close friend" Gina Rinehart, who joined Bernardi in meetings with Trump's campaign team in New York.1 Like Trump, we can't underestimate Bernardi or the damage he can do. We have a community of 1 million members, who proved last election we can take on the far right and win. If there's any group of committed, passionate people who can counter Bernardi's Trump-inspired politics of division, it's us. But to keep countering that far right agenda, we need to fight harder and longer than any election campaign. That means more people joining the GetUp Crew — the team of GetUp supporters who make a regular donation to fund our collective power.
Check out our video about what Bernardi's move means for Australia — and join the GetUp Crew today.
What will we do? Everything GetUp does best. We're going to counter and frustrate Bernardi's mining-backed right-wing agenda with bigger, deeper and more far-reaching campaigns — just like we did to stop Tony Abbott's extreme agenda. We'll hit the streets, airwaves and online. And we'll counter his 50,000 followers with 1 million passionate GetUp members, like we've done time and again on the issues that matter. But we won't stop there. We'll also work with members to mobilise in their own communities, and get their neighbours and friends involved to organise for lasting, long-term change that combats hate and division with unity. And we'll drive the political narrative with cutting-edge, media-grabbing policy research that takes back the agenda from Bernardi's denial of science and fact. All to be backed in by the creative ads and viral videos that reach millions and stand out from the political pack.

Writer's Intuition — Part I
I've known writers who juggle a handful of manuscripts in various states of repair all at one time, but I have enough in my life to sort out, so that won't ever be me. I tend to be a monogamous WIPster, a one-WIP-at-a-time kind of gal (excluding editor/agent revisions, of course). I have, however, developed a sort of rhythm about these things. I don't really know when the WIP is almost ready until I've had that ZING of inspiration for the next novel. But I can't get that zing until the WIP is in the right place either.
I guess that's what I mean by writer's intuition. The whole process is completely subconscious, lodged somewhere in that mystical land where the heart/gut sends invisible smoke signals to the brain and they figure out who is going to lead the search party and when. Then you have the wind and the rain and everything else that can get in the way...
My poor WIP has been wheezing along for the last two months, inching its way towards the final hurrah but not quite getting up enough steam to make it over the hill. Meanwhile, my writer's intuition has been sorting through the odd possibility or two for the next project. On several occasions, I thought I may have struck gold but it turned out to be nothing more than pyrite and my WIP still lumbered along.
Then last week it happened. The Zinger. It stuck me right between the eyes and deep in my heart because the subject is so close to home. Amazingly, the WIP suddenly picked up steam too. I got clarity and momentum all in one day! I don't think the Zinger would have found me if I hadn't reached a certain point in my WIP, and I couldn't have cut that lodestone loose and revived my WIP unless I had met my Zinger. It's all in the timing.
I know...this post wreaks of bad metaphors, but I'm saving the good stuff for the novels! So how do you balance your WIPs and inspirations?
9 comments:
I'm such an ADD writer. In order to stay motivated, I have to have lots of irons in the fire, so to speak. But I only revise one WIP at a time.ReplyDelete
Yes, I've got a zinger pestering me, but I'm keeping her inside my head for now. I work on her when I'm lying in bed half-asleep with my eyes closed. She can come out to play on paper once the other WIPS are revised.
Thrilled to hear you've got the inspirational momentum that will carry you through the end and into a new beginning. ^_^
I can only work on drafting one WIP at a time - and like you I will often have shiny new idea blast into my sub-conscious about 2/3 of the way through the manuscript. Then I have to start a shiny new idea file and right stream of consciousness notes until I'm assured I have enough down I'll remember it. Then SNI fights a little for head space with WIP till I wrestle it down and have the motivation to fly through WIP. I also can't draft if I'm working on a a true revision. Have to put new work aside. I'm pretty linear I guess.ReplyDelete
I'm a bit like J.ro up there - I'll really devote my concentration on one project at a time, but when little sparks hit me that would be great for some other project, I get them all down and store them for later.ReplyDelete
I suppose I'm a bit squirrely that way - storing little nuggets away for leaner inspiration times.
Yes, I'm an idea pack-rat too. I often keep a journal for each WIP, starting with the pre-writing stuff. I think it through, bit by bit, wherever and whenever the inspiration hits me. Snippets of character, plot, theme...whatever.ReplyDelete
I have a file with stray ideas, but I wouldn't call them zingers...yet. Those are my nuggets for later. The Zingers won't leave me alone, so they get their own journal.
I don't have the brain capacity to work on more than one project at a time, but while I'm working on one, I do collect bits and jot notes that often seem to end up working their way into the next new project. I love it when everything starts to come together and rejuvenates a project.ReplyDelete
Loved reading this.ReplyDelete
Oh, and like you Mary Ann- I'm a one-at-a-time story writer. (Call us Serial Monogamists.)
Great post. I could really relate. Depending what else is going on in my life, I either focus on one thing or work on five. Much of the time this has little to do with intuition. It is more about deadlines and what I think I can sell to a publisher next. But in terms of figuring out which idea might become a viable project at all, that's really intuition. I've been thinking about that a lot lately, because my current WIP is turning out so strangely that i'm not sure it was a good idea. I'll soldier on for a while, though, and see what happens.ReplyDelete
Nice blog...thanks for the sharingReplyDelete
Lolol! You totally got me with the "monogamous WIPster" comment. Too clever.ReplyDelete
I also have to stick with one WIP at a time. There are too many things to keep track of while drafting and writing to even contemplate trying to do that for two ideas.
Thanks to spammers, this blog is moderated, so don't be alarmed if your comment doesn't appear right away. Thanks for stopping by!

Tractor pulling is something my dad and I have always enjoyed. Three years ago the fever finally got the best of us. Dad pulled one hook with an 806 he had restored in 1998 and that just wasn't enough. We are constantly learning new things and have met alot of great people along the way. Our current project is an IH 1256 which will be named "Deere Season." We are members of the West Central Iowa Pullers group and really enjoy travelling to pulls put on by this organization.

I first stumbled across jewelry by MeiraT Designs when looking for a Christmas gift for my mom. I wanted something a bit unusual, which is exactly what I found. When I later visited the MeiraT website, her philosophy of "designed for a woman, by a woman" really resonated with me. These pieces are meant to be wearable day and night, beautiful and noticeable.
MeiraT has had a lifelong interest in jewelry design, drawing inspiration from her European and Middle Eastern background. What I love about MeiraT Jewelry is the asymmetry of many of the pieces. Some elements of her designs have a rawness to them, as if the stones are are just dug out of the ground and left unpolished. At the same time, they are delicate.
There's a consistent rhythm to the jewelry across the brand. The pieces are organic, dainty and pretty. There really is something for everyone with MeiraT Designs, whether you prefer diamonds and gold or a more earthy tone.
You can see more jewelry by MeiraT Designs on her website. She is also on Facebook and Twitter.

Newspaper stocks took a drubbing today. Despite the improving economy and the uptick in advertising, some newspapers' earnings still show sluggish times. Knight Ridder
Knight Ridder earned $55.9 million, or $0.70 per share, 10% higher than the $50.6 million, or $0.62 per share, it earned in the same quarter a year ago. Revenues increased 2% to $712.3 million. Advertising revenues helped the gain, bringing to fruition the glimmers of hope from last quarter. However, Knight Ridder did warn of a spotty outlook for newspapers across the U.S.
On the other hand, Tribune was the culprit in bringing newspapers down a notch today when it reported earnings that missed expectations. Tribune reported earnings of $118.6 million, or $0.35 per share, as compared to $134.9 million, or $0.41 per share last year. Revenues were up 3% to $1.3 billion.
The rather depressing earnings on Tribune's part contained a onetime loss related to investments. The silver lining to the cloud? Advertising revenues did show improvement.
For Tribune, it's a far cry from its stellar earnings reported earlier this year. At the same time, Knight Ridder pointed to hints of an improving advertising market at that time.
Going forward, indications show a sketchy outlook for advertising, one of the main drivers of newspaper revenues. It's an interesting comparison to the rockin' ad revenues from Internet bellwether Yahoo!
More in this mixed bag of tricks? Gannett
Though it's obvious that the outlook for newspapers is improving, it's understandably disappointing when many other industries are benefiting from the improved economy now. With an eye to the future, the mixed messages coming from newspaper-focused media companies give good reason to pause before picking winners.

Tutorial on how to write basic udev rules in LinuxDec 04, 2017, 09:00 (0 Talkback[s])
(Other stories by Egidio Docile)
In a GNU/Linux system, while devices low level support is handled at the kernel level, the management of events related to them is managed in userspace by udev, and more precisely by the udevd daemon. Learning how to write rules to be applied on the occurring of those events can be really useful to modify the behavior of the system and adapt it to our needs.

Eva Marie's suspension for the WWE Wellness Policy has officially ended, however she may not be returning to WWE programming immediately.
While Eva was away from the company, she landed a role for the upcoming film 'Inconceivable' that stars Nicolas Cage.
Filming for the movie kicks off sometime in October, so if she does return to the company, it would only be for a short while before she would take more time off.
There is always the possibility that WWE just keeps her off until filming has wrapped up.

I reach for you
I am here thinking, wondering what i did to have you in my life.
So much has happened but you were here to stay.
When times were cray cray....you hold me in your arms.
When i was sick you rubbed my belly and sang to me love tunes from the radio.
Surprised me with breakfast and lunch...you knew i couldn't cook well but loved the food anyway.
Always engaging me with talks of spirituality that we could never have without a debate.
But we prayed together and that has made us stayed together.
Then...things started slipping away
And you to.
Now am here reaching for you to come.
Touch my hand again.
Be with me again.
Time is like sand running out of my hand.
If you don't come back... the last grain is my last chance to have you.
I need the love and i know you need it to.
So here i am reaching for you.

This Week in Car Buying: March sales sizzle; First-time buyers get schooled; Teslamania spurs hybrid, EV interest; Infiniti and Cadillac boost pre-owned activity
Contrary to conventional wisdom that new car sales have plateaued, March results show that the market is still hot, with an expected 8-percent increase in sales for the best monthly sales result that the industry has seen in 10 years, according to Kelley Blue Book data. The figures predict a 1.66 million unit tally for March, which translates to a 17.2 million seasonally adjusted annual rate. Contributing to the strength of the numbers is the fact that there were two additional selling days during the period.
"The industry continues to maintain its momentum in March as we expect the highest volume of any month in more than 10 years," said Tim Fleming, analyst for Kelley Blue Book. "However, we continue to follow indicators that demand for new cars in weakening, while there is increased incentive spending and an increasing share of fleet sales."
That pessimism is reflected in a poll of car dealers ahead of their annual National Automotive Dealers Association convention in Las Vegas. According to an online survey conducted by Automotive News, only one in 10 dealers remain strongly optimistic about prospects for continued sales gains in 2016 at their individual stores, while 14 percent expect sales to be worse. The biggest number, 38 percent, expect things to be better, while 37 percent feel sales will be about the same. The paper said by adding those who expect things to be better or much better together nets 49 percent of the respondents, compared to 71 percent a year ago.
Still, a strong March will see first quarter sales advance by 5 percent over last year, although retail sales penetration has fallen slightly from 77.2 to 76.1 percent as automakers ramp up fleet sales. Among the expected big gainers are Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, up 14 percent largely on strong Jeep sales, and American Honda, which will experience double-digit gains thanks to the new HR-V and Pilot. The latter is one of the hottest vehicles on the market with just an 18-day dealer inventory supply.
Crossover SUVs and trucks continue to be big sellers. "Smaller utility vehicles continue to outpace the rest of the industry, as the most popular segment is now averaging 20 percent growth this year," Fleming said. "Mainstay models like the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V still sit atop the segment, while new models like the Jeep Renegade and Honda HR-V are gaining popularity with consumers by demonstrating their values as more affordable, but still versatile, small crossovers."
Full-size trucks are also up, but incentives on these vehicles are beginning to climb, topping $4,000 average per unit.

Schooling the first time buyer
Previously we reported on a survey that showed nearly 60-percent of college-age students have little or no knowledge of how credit works. One used-car dealership in Michigan is taking a proactive approach by teaming up with a local credit union to offer instruction on auto financing for young, first time buyers, according to Automotive News.
"We used to always have young adults come in without a co-signer or without a sizable down payment and in those cases, all we could offer were these unfavorable interest rates," Chris Babcock, sales finance manager of Viels Auto Sales in Lapeer, Mich., told the trade paper. "We were just setting them up to fail." But now, Viels has a First Time Auto Buyers Program in which Babcock conducts a buyer's training program that can be taken either online or in a formal class setting.
By taking the program and meeting five underwriting requirements of the participating credit union, Team One, those who complete the course usually qualify for low-interest rate loans. Since starting the program last September, Babcock said there have been zero delinquencies among the graduates who have taken out loans. Once the 18- to 24-month pilot program is completed, Team One Credit Union is looking at rolling the program out to other dealers in the area.
Teslamania sparks hybrid/EV interest
The hype surrounding the unveiling of the Tesla Model 3, which saw nearly 20,000 people lining up at the EV maker's dealerships to get their $1,000 deposits down on a car that won't ship until next year may be sparking interest in other alternative power vehicles. According to the Kelley Hot Car Report, online interest in the 2016 Chevrolet Volt has soared 276.4 percent in the week leading up to the Tesla reveal. Dhara Mehta, senior analyst at Kelley Blue Book Strategic Insights, said among the reasons for the increased consideration is that the "second-generation Volt also offers a 53-mile all-electric range and a total range of 420 miles, an almost 30 percent improvement from the previous generation."
Tesla's nearest rival to the Model 3 will likely be the Chevrolet Bolt EV, which will be launched later this year offering a 200 mile range and a purchase price of around $30,000 after a $7,500 federal tax credit. "It will be interesting to see if Chevrolet succeeds in creating a distinct advantage for each model in shoppers' minds," Mehta concluded.

Infiniti, Cadillac step up pre-owned plans
Both Infiniti and Cadillac have plans to step up their efforts in marketing Certified Pre-Owned vehicles, as a record number of lease returns are expected during 2016. Infiniti is said to be working on a program of new extended warranties, the availability of more vehicles and more advertising of the program, John Fabre, head of the Infiniti National Dealer Advisory Board told Automotive News. "We will have more cars eligible for CPO warranty certification," he said, adding, "It covers more mileage and more months."
Meanwhile, Cadillac will be using its CPO program to provide a framework of dealer incentive as part of a program called Project Pinnacle. It rewards dealers with bonus money if the CPO sales hit 20 percent of what they do on retail vehicle deliveries. The bonuses go up if that number grows to 30 percent. As a result, expect dealers to be more aggressive in marketing CPO Cadillacs in the coming months.
The rundown
The 2017 Chrysler 300S is now available with a new sport appearance trim package that gives the car a more aggressive look. The trim is standard on V8 models and optional on the V6.
The official pricing on the 2017 Volvo S90 T5 has been announced with an MSRP starting at $47,495.
As the most luxurious model in the range, the 2016 Jeep Cherokee Overland loses none of its off-road prowess. Read our first review here.

The SCOOP model provides programmers with a simple extension of Eiffel that allows them to produce high-quality concurrent applications with little more effort than sequential ones. The model is simple yet powerful; nevertheless, its access control policy is pessimistic: (1) all separate actual arguments of a feature call are locked, even if it is not necessary, and (2) at most one client object can access a given supplier object at any time. As a result, SCOOP-based programs are deadlock-prone. Additionally, some interesting synchronisation scenarios, e.g. reader-writer, cannot be implemented efficiently. This paper presents an extended access control policy for SCOOP that makes it possible to specify which arguments of a routine call should be locked; it also allows for shared access to supplier objects thanks to the interleaving of pure query calls. Additionally, we introduce a mechanism for lock-passing that increases the expressive power of the model, thus allowing the programmer to write programs that were impossible to implement in the original SCOOP model Show more

Below, is a personal account of someone who suffered the aftermath of suicide. I just want to take a moment to thank Jacob for opening up to the students at OSU by telling his very personal story.
Hi everybody, I am glad to see that you are so interested in the education and prevention of suicide. Suicide is not an easy subject to talk about, however, we must work to help one another through the good and the bad times in order to accomplish our goal. Whether it be a candle lit in memory of a loved one, a touching story, or a university wide event, we are all here to support each other.
I would like to share with you my personal story of suicide. It is just one of many, however, it motivates me to better myself every single day. It forces me to live my life twice as well as I think I could, once for myself of course, and once for the man I have always considered my hero.
In remembrance of all those who have died, in support of all those who have survived, and in dedication to all those involved, this is my story...
Four weeks prior to August 1, 2008 I had walked down the steps of my brother's house in University Heights. Looking back as he yelled something dumb at me like he usually did, I remember his shining face smiling down at me as it had for all 17 years of my life.
"Later, Juice," he said, citing his all so famous nickname for me! If you asked me where he got it from I really couldn't tell you, but I had always liked it.
My cousins and I, who had spent the day at my brother's house had just left after eating dinner with him and were on our way back home. It was just like any other day, or so I thought.
He had planned on moving to Florida on August 28, 2008, just one day after his twenty-sixth birthday. He was getting a new job down there, working at a restaurant, and he seemed to be happy about it. Of course the rest of us were a bit stressed because we all know what its like when family members move away, inconvenient to say the least.
Two weeks before August 1, my Mom had pulled me aside and given me the news that he was moving. She told me "Jake, I'm worried about your brother moving, how about you give him a call and see what he is up to...maybe go out to eat lunch one day this week."
Now, you must understand that my Mom said things like this all the time. My brother had always been a bit troubled in his youth and she had always worried about him. The problem was, I didn't really have that much time. I was starting varsity golf practice in a few days and needed to get out and work on my game. I blew her off, I forgot to call him.
Two days later, on Thursday the 31st, I finally remembered to give him a call. I glanced at my phone surprised to find a voicemail. It turns out that my brother had actually called me on Tuesday to see if I wanted to go out to lunch, I just never heard it until then.
Friday morning, was the worst day of my life. I woke up to my Mom walking into my room crying. Knowing that my pet bunny, Snowball, had been sick for a few weeks by then, I figured that she had finally gone to Heaven.
I sat in my bed shaking, unable to talk or move for thirty minutes when my Mom told me what actually happened.
"Your brother Mark took his life last night," she cried.
How am I supposed to respond to that? Why did this happen to our family? How could he have ever done such a thing?
To be honest with you, I still do not know the answers to those questions. It turns out that Mark took his life in the late hours of Thursday night into Friday morning. He did so with a firearm he had gotten from his friend and took his final resting place in his apartment. The same apartment that I had last seen him at with my cousins four weeks earlier. He had been fighting with his girlfriend, as well as my other older brother, Nick, who had tried to stop him from getting into trouble like he had been with drugs the last few months.
It has since been almost a year and a half, yet I can remember that terrible day as if it were yesterday.
Thankfully, with the help of my friends and my family, I have begun to make light of our situation, at least in such a way that I can show my love and remembrance of my brother Mark by working to prevent suicide in the future, and working hard to succeed throughout my life. He has given me so much to write about, not to mention, he has allowed me to grow up so much whereas I value my life and care about others so much more than I ever could have imagined before.
I do not look for sympathy or condolences in writing about my brother, rather, I do so in an attempt to inspire other people, just as I have become inspired to dedicate what I do, for the rest of my life, in honor of all of those who have dealt with suicide.

FCA Reports Nearly Identical Vehicle Sales in 2016 Compared to Previous Year
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) sold a total of 2,244,315 vehicles across the United States in 2016, which is only a slight decrease from the 2,252,877 units moved by the company in 2015.
FCA's biggest seller in 2016 was its Ram pickup truck. This model accounted for 489,418 units moved in 2016, making it the third best-selling vehicle in the entire country last year. In case you're wondering, the only two models that sold better were the Chevrolet Silverado and Ford F-Series line of pickup trucks.
FCA also announced that sales for its Jeep brand increased 6% year-over-year with a total 926,376 automobiles sold. Jeep's biggest seller in 2016 was the Grand Cherokee SUV. This popular model accounted for 212,273 units moved by itself and was followed closely by the regular Cherokee and Wrangler SUVs, which accounted for sales of 199,736 and 191,774 units, respectively.
Sales of Dodge SUVs were also up in 2016, as the Dodge Caravan led the way with 127,678 units moved. This was an increase of 26% over last year's Caravan sales. The Durango SUV also saw a 6% year-over-year increase with 68,474 vehicles sold.
While truck and SUVs sales soared for FCA in 2016, the same cannot be said for its line of passenger cars. The company's best-selling sedan in 2016 was the Dodge Charger with 95,437 cars sold, but that was still a decrease from the 96,633 Chargers moved in 2015. In addition, sales for the Challenger muscle car were also down 3% year-over year, but that model could see a sales increase in 2017 thanks to the release of the new Challenger GT, which becomes the first all-wheel drive muscle coupe ever produced.
FCA previously announced that it would be discontinuing the Viper sports car following the 2017 model year. Only 630 examples of the Viper were sold in all of 2016. Furthermore, sales for the Alfa Romeo 4C were even lower, as that lightweight sports car only moved 480 units in 2016.
After seeing FCA's sales report, it becomes much clearer as to why the organization is ramping up production of its trucks and SUVs, while also discontinuing several of its less profitable cars, such as the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200.

text: Hello, all: First post here. My wife uses an HTC Hero(Sprint). She would sync it with her PC laptop that contained Outlook. All of her e-mail, contacts and single calendar were in Outlook. The e-mail provider is Verizon. The laptop crashed, and we decided to buy an Apple Macbook Pro. We loaded it with Microsoft Office for Mac Home and Business Edition 2011. We thought it would be a simple task to load evrything into the Outlook for Mac and sync away with the Hero. No such luck. Through various forums online, I have found that Office for Mac is unable to be synced to an Android phone. It seems, and correct me if I'm wrong, we can still use Outlook to receive e-mails through Verizon. We have to use Apple's iCal as the calendar, and we have to use Google as a syncing calendar and as a place to store contacts. I understand that she has to then use a gmail account for this purpose. She has created such an account. Last night, I created a few test events in iCal tried to sync them to the Google Calendar. No go. I followed Google's intructions but to no avail. 1. Am I approaching this new venture correctly,i.e., using iCal and Google and using Google as the app to sync to the Hero? 2. How do I sync the iCal information into the Google calendar and contacts? 3. How do I sync the Google calendar and contacts into the Hero? Note: the Hero's current calendar is tied to the old pc's Outlook calendar. 4. Do I still need to rely on Office for Mac inorder to send and receive the Verizon e-mails? That is my wife's main (read: one and only) e-mail address. Thank you very much. Dan
