A man has been arrested on suspicion of stealing personal items from house that exploded earlier this year northeast of Durango.
The U.S. Marshals Service arrested Jerry Anthony Spinnichia, 32 on Nov. 2 in Milwaukee, according to a news release issued Monday by the Durango Police Department.
Spinnichia and three others are suspected of stealing a trailer that contained valuable items that survived the blast, including snowmobiles.
The explosion occurred in February north of Lemon Reservoir at the home of Tim and Karen Kelley. The home was leveled in the natural-gas explosion.
It trapped Tim, Karen and their 9-year-old daughter, Cameron, causing serious injuries to all three.
Friends and family placed salvageable belongings into a 27-foot enclosed trailer and locked it.
Authorities located the trailer in June in Aztec.
Ashley Moore, 21, of Durango, and Darin Scott, 32, of Farmington, were arrested on suspicion of being in possession of items belonging to the Kelleys.
Spinnichia was at the location of the trailer, but he avoided capture that day and fled to Wisconsin.
The police department requested the assistance of the Marshals Service after learning Spinnichia possibly fled to Wisconsin. The agencies worked together on leads and were able to track down Spinnichia to a new place of employment where he was arrested without incident.
He was arrested on four outstanding warrants, including one from the Durango Police Department.
He is awaiting extradition back to Colorado to face formal charges.
All of the stolen property taken from the Kelleys has been recovered, the release says.
The police department thanked those who helped capture Spinnichia.
Without the help of our concerned citizens, arrests like these are almost impossible, the release says.

Digital photography, as opposed to film photography, uses electronic devices to record and capture the image as binary data. This facilitates storage and editing of the images on personal computers, and also the ability to show and delete unsuccessful images immediately on the camera or software itself. Digital cameras now outsell film cameras and include features that are not found in film cameras such as the ability to shoot video and record audio. Some other devices, such as mobile phones, now include digital photography features. The quality of a digital image is the sum of various factors, many of which are similar to film cameras. Pixel count (typically listed in megapixels, millions of pixels) is only one of the major factors, though it is the most heavily marketed. Pixel count metrics were created by the marketing organizations of digital camera manufacturers because consumers can use it to easily compare camera capabilities. It is not, however, the major factor in evaluating a digital camera. The processing system inside the camera that turns the raw data into a color-balanced and pleasing photograph is the most critical, which is why some 4+ megapixel cameras perform better than higher-end cameras.

Jennie was the only daughter and last child of James and Maria Danson, born on Christmas Eve, December 24th 1897, with her eight (surviving) brothers George then aged 3, Frank 5, Albert 7, Tom 9, William 12, Robert 16, John 18 and Harry 20 – quite a household in what looked like a cramped terraced house. Their father James died in 1906.
Jennie's photograph collection forms the basis of much of my family history and even better she had identified the names on the back of the photos.

Johnstown, PA and the great flood of 1889
Posted 27 November 2002 - 03:10 PM
The worst flood occured May 31st, 1889. Some of the remanents of the flood are still in Johnstown. There is a church in downtown, right on the square, that withstood the force of the wave and has a plaque on the wall marking the location of the water line. I kid you not when I say that this if about 30 feet up the building..
I have visited the site where the dam was, seen what is left of the dam, and even watched the movie that was put together at the museum. But nothing has creeped me out as much as the bridge. Even before I knew the history of the bridge, it disturbed me, every time I drove by it, it sent chills down my spine. I thought that it was just because it was an old bridge. Here is a picture of the present day bridge.....
It was this bridge that created a temporary dam that held the massive wall of water. There was so much debris in the water from the 1600 homes that were destroyed along with the 280 businesses that were lost, it all became trapped in this bridge. Many people who could have survived the watery ride, were trapped at this bridge. The pool turned into a massive whirlpool and the debris caught fire, making a bad situation even worse.
This bridge still stands today and is a very eerie place to visit. If you ever get a chance, visit Johnstown, a very haunted place indeed. 2209 people died in the flood of 1889 and there is a lot of history about it.
Some other places to check out in Johnstown......
The cemetary where the 777 unidentified victims were buried....Grandview Cemetary.....here is an old picture of the cemetary
I have visited this place and it has a very depressing atmosphere.
You can read a thorough history on the flood, just do a search on the internet and tons of stuff will pop up.

History of the Johnstown Flood
by Willis Fletcher Johnson
Written: 1889
Edgewood Publishing Co.
Here are just a few excerpts describing the aftermath of that devastating flood.
'The stream of human beings that was swept before the angry floods was something most pitiful to behold. Men, women and children were carried along frantically shrieking for help, but their cries availed them nothing. Rescue was impossible.'
'...The men, women, children, horses, and other domestic animals, houses, bridges, railroad cars, logs and tree branches were jammed together in a solid mass, which only dynomite can break up.'
' There are many corpses in the area of rubbish that drifted down and lodged against the stone bridge of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Out of this rubbish one thousand bodies have already been taken...The iron rods of a bridge were twisted into a perfect spiral six times around one of the girders. Just beneath it was a woman's trunk, broken up and half filled with sand, with silk dresses and a veil streaming out of it. From under the trunk men were lifting the body of it's owner, perhaps, so burned, so horribly mutilated, so torn limb from limb that even the workmen, who have seen so many of these frightful sights that they have begun to get so used to them, turned away sick at heart.'
" I stood on the stone bridge at six o'clock and looking into the seething mass of ruin below me. At one place the blackened body of a babe was seen; in another, fourteen skulls could be counted. Futher along the bones became thicker and thicker, until at last at one place it seemed as if a concourse of people who had been at a ball or entertainment had been carried in a bunch and incinerated." New York World Coraspondent.
The book is 459 pages long. These are just some of the descriptions of the carnage wreaked by the flood. I can understand now why crossing that bridge would give one the heeby-geebies...it was estimated that 8000 people lost their lives that day.

If you ever pass through central PA, make a stop in Johnstown and check it out. There are so many "spots" in Johnstown. I am hoping to get back there in the spring and check some things out, especially that freaky bridge!
Posted 28 December 2002 - 12:10 PM
Just a side note - Many survivors went insane because of what they experienced, but the saddest fact of all was the report of gangs of men that arrived in town after and looted and robbed not only the wreckage, but the bodies. Going as far as cutting off fingers and ears to get their jewelry. Are there any urban legends attributed to the flood?
Posted 28 December 2002 - 02:22 PM
Wait a minute....something is tickling my brain about Grandview Cemetary and the site where all the unidentified victims are buried. Let me see if I can find it out or possibly remember it. I think it had something to do with the tombstones.........let's see what I can dig up!

Welcome to GV! Where is this road that you used to live by that gave you the eerie feeling? Just wondering if I have ever heard of it before.
I think we might have to organize a mini trip to Johnstown this spring to check out several of the sites there. What do you guys think about that?
Posted 02 January 2003 - 10:34 AM
Thank you for welcoming me to ghost village. I'm kinda new at this although I've been studying the paranormal for over 15 years (and I'm only 27!) I used to perform psychic readings (tarot and clairvoyant) but I've given that up for ghost hunting.
I've been reading and collecting paranormal items since I can remember (before the age of 10). When I was thirteen I had three Ouija boards and another automatic writing device. I don't know why I was drawn to the paranormal. Why are any of us?
The road I speak of is in wayne twp. which is between ellwood city and portersville, pa. The whole road doesn't have a bad vibe, but it is terrible when it starts. you start down one hill (where the vibe starts),cross a bridge at the bottom, and start up the other side. When you get to the top of the second hill the feeling dissapates. I'm not sure of the actual road name but I think it branches off of Hogue Road which is accessible off of RT 65 from Ellwood City to New Castle.

Style Manager is a plugin for iThemes Builder that provides a easy interface to adjust styling of various elements of Builder theme at a basic level.
It can be downloaded from Member Panel.
Style Manager Video
Source: http://ithemes.com/tutorials/using-the-builder-style-manager/
Above video is 73-minute recording of "Builder Style Manager Exposed" webinar from WebDesign.com that shows you how to use the Builder's style manager to control the look of your site.
Information for Style Manager 0.6.0 and up
Beginning with version 0.6.0, Style Manager supports responsive-ready child themes as well while keeping the responsiveness intact. It is no longer needed to comment out
add_theme_support( 'builder-responsive' );
in a responsive-ready child theme's (i.e., child theme having version number 4.0.0 and up)
functions.php so as to use Style Manager.
At My Theme -> Style Manager, the following notice will appear:
"Style Manager now supports two different formats: a format for the newer, responsive-ready child themes and a format for the older, non-responsive child themes. These formats are not compatible with one another, meaning that you will only have access to the Styles that are usable by your current child theme.
Since you are running a non-responsive child theme, the listing below will only show the Styles created in this format. Any Styles in the other format still exist and can still be used if you switch back to a responsive-ready child theme."
There are a few important things to know before you start using the new Style Manager on your responsive Builder sites, so we've outlined them all in this blog post.
How to update Style Manager
Follow this.
Styles appear in preview window but not on the site
- Use Firefox. Do not use other browsers, especially IE when using Style Manager.
- Ensure that your site is hosted on a server that runs PHP 5, not PHP 4. ServerBuddy plugin can be used to check this and more. You can contact your host for help on upgrading from a older version of PHP to version 5.
- Ensure that permissions (CHMOD) of wp-content/uploads/builder-style-manager directory is 755 (should apply to all 3 directories).
- Ensure that permissions (CHMOD) of Style Manager generated .css file(s) inside wp-content/uploads/builder-style-manager directory is 644.
Preview window is too small to be usable
Ensure that WordPress address and Site address are the same at Settings -> General.
How to add fonts
It is possible to add font stacks and font sizes by adding code to child theme's functions.php.
Example code:
function customize_font_stacks( $font_stacks ) { $new_font_stacks = array( "Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif" => 'Arial', "Baskerville, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif" => 'Times', "'Century Gothic', 'Apple Gothic', sans-serif" => 'Century Gothic', ); return array_merge( $font_stacks, $new_font_stacks ); } add_filter( 'builder_filter_style_manager_general_font_families', 'customize_font_stacks' ); function customize_font_sizes( $font_sizes ) { $new_font_sizes = array( '37px' => '37px', '37%' => '37%', '37pt' => '37pt', ); return array_merge( $font_sizes, $new_font_sizes ); } add_filter( 'builder_filter_style_manager_general_font_sizes', 'customize_font_sizes' );
Video Instructions: http://ithemes.com/screencasts/builder/adding-fonts-style-manager/
A useful site for font families is http://font-family.com/
For an example of using @font-face fonts in Style Manager, see this.
How to use typekit fonts in Builder
Update on Monday, April 01, 2013: This seems to be a simpler method.
1. Create an account at typekit. Create a kit by specifying the domain on which you wish to use the font(s) that will be added to the kit. Copy the embed code provided by typekit.
2. Go to WordPress dashboard, My Theme -> Settings -> Analytics and JavaScript Code and paste it in the
List any JavaScript or other code to be manually inserted inside the site's <head> tag in the input below. text area.
Save Settings.
3. At typekit.com, add the font that you wish to use to this kit. In the window that opens up when a font is added, click on Using fonts in CSS.
Copy the font-family line.
4. Now we can use the font in our child theme's style.css just like any other.
.entry-title { font-family: "museo-slab",serif; }
results in
5. To make this font available in Style Manager, the following code should be added in child theme's functions.php:
function customize_font_stacks( $font_stacks ) { $new_font_stacks = array( "'museo-slab', serif" => 'Museo Slab' ); return array_merge( $font_stacks, $new_font_stacks ); } add_filter( 'builder_filter_style_manager_general_font_families', 'customize_font_stacks' ); function customize_font_sizes( $font_sizes ) { $new_font_sizes = array( '37px' => '37px', '37%' => '37%', '37pt' => '37pt', ); return array_merge( $font_sizes, $new_font_sizes ); } add_filter( 'builder_filter_style_manager_general_font_sizes', 'customize_font_sizes' );
In the above
'museo-slab', serif should be replaced with font-family value copied in step 3. Note that single quotes are being used instead of double quotes because
'museo-slab', serif will be surrounded by double quotes.
Museo Slab should be replaced with the name that you would like to assign to this font in Style Manager's Font Family dropdown.
6. Now this typekit font will be available for use in Style Manager.
This is happening because the nav bar has a background image set (depending on the child theme) in child theme's style.css. The solution is to set Background Image to None.
Color changes for links are not showing in the preview window
Make sure you are changing these in the correct section.
Links can be styled in these sections:
- Links
- Post/Page Content Styling
- Module Sidebars -> Widgets
- Widget Bar Module -> Widgets
Changes don't appear in Preview although it shows the generated code in CSS Preview
This is most probably due to a more specific CSS being applied to the element of interest via child theme's style.css.
To illustrate this, please see http://screencast.com/t/z8btUdLahHtX
Even though the text color for widgets of widget bar module has been set to be white in Style Manager, text in the preview window (and on the site) is not white.
This is because of color property in the following from style.css:
.builder-module-sidebar .widget p { margin-top: 0; color: #333333 ; }
There is no option to style paragraphs inside widgets in Style Manager.
So we will have to manually add the following CSS either inside Custom CSS or in child theme's style.css to get our desired white color text inside widget bar module's widgets:
.builder-module-widget-bar .widget p { color: #FFFFFF ; }
Changes like setting body background image appear in the preview but not on the site
Webpage elements like Slideshow plugin and AWeber widget script could directly inject CSS into the content of the site.
Ex.: The style injected by AWeber has a rule of
body {}. This empty body rule is overriding the one created by Style Manager that sets the background, causing the background modification to be lost in the generated stylesheet.
To diagnose this problem, observe CSS rules in the CSS Preview box such as
#af-form-1602098000 { overflow: hidden; } as Style Manager would never produce such a rule. This means that rules from other styles are bleeding into Style Manager's generated stylesheet.
The way to manually work around the issue is to navigate the preview to a view that is free of any styles in the content. Ex.: Let's say there is a View that uses the Full Width Layout (no aWeber widget) for archives (no slideshow slider). Navigate the preview to any archive page, wait for the CSS Preview to refresh, and then save the uncorrupted Style.
To summarize, the fix is:
- Edit the Style in Style Manager
- Navigate in your preview to a page that does not have an problem causing elements like Aweber form or a Slideshow
- Save the Style
Forum topic: http://ithemes.com/forum/index.php?/topic/20557-background-image-disappeared/#p97606
Unable to generate stylesheet file. Check file permissions for your uploads directory
When you get the following upon saving a style in Style Manager
Unable to generate stylesheet file. Check file permissions for your uploads directory. The stylesheet will still function but will not be as efficient as it could be.
the fix is to correct the wrong path that is present for "Store uploads in this folder" field at Settings -> Media. Change it to "wp-content/uploads".
Useful tips and forum links
- See this forum topic on permissions. Summary: "Anyway I discovered the css files being created in wp-content/uploads were being created with rw rw — permissions and as soon as I changed the file permissons to be rw rw r it all worked perfectly."
- If you are using 1&1 hosting, create a single line .htaccess file with this code "AddType x-mapp-php5 .php" and upload it to the root. Source
- At Settings -> General, if WordPress address (URL) and Site address (URL) are the same location (which is usually the case), ensure that they are exactly the same. Ex.: "http://domain.com" for both the fields is good, not "http://domain.com" for one and "http://www.domain.com" for the other.
- Beginning v0.6.4, it is possible to change the URL of page that loads in Style Manager's Preview. See this post for details.
- Presence of Style Manager does not mean that one can get away from writing custom CSS code. While Style Manager can be used to set styles for some elements, it is not an extensive tool that covers each and every element on a webpage. In some cases, even when an option to style a particular element seems to be present in Style Manager it might not actually work because the child theme's style.css overrides it. The "Cascading" part of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) must be understood to avoid frustrations generally associated with "Why the heck can't I style this with Style Manager?". The general answer to "What all can I style in Style Manager?" is: "Whatever you see and can style when you use Style Manager".
- Now that you know Style Manager is not your swiss army knife for all your styling needs, what is? The answer is: A knowledge of CSS and Firebug. iThemes Builder customers can watch several videos on how to use Firebug to style various elements. We also compiled a list of CSS resources here.
- It is not possible to apply one set of styles to the complete module or individual widgets of a module differently than other modules of that type. i.e., the styles that you set to widget bar modules will apply to all widget bar modules. Ex.: You will not be able to apply say, a blue background to just one widget bar module while the rest of them have been set to say, a red background via Style Manager. For such changes, style.css has to be edited manually.

I'm more than happy to skip writing about this particular comic; I thought it was beyond bland and utterly forgettable. So instead I will encourage you to give it up for CAPTAIN TACOS:
" (For shorter form, read only first line.)
And let me explain, by 'meh' I do not mean this is a mediocre comic that is neither funny nor interesting. By 'meh' I mean this is a terrible comic that is neither funny nor interesting. My roommate and I had a long argument about this. He notes that this comic has no major flaws; his criticisms are that "made more than two" is awkward and should be "had more than two" and that the title, "Date" slightly gives away the joke. The premise is contrived and doesn't lead anywhere, Combined with the lackluster punchline, he calls this a mediocre comic. I disagree; I argue that the absence of humor constitutes a huge, crippling, if you will, fatal flaw. When did 'not good, but with the absence of vaginas,' become mediocre. Probably last week, when there was a giant vagina in the comic! Perhaps this was the point of that comic, to so lower the bar that all future comics would be judged more kindly because they were not so blatantly pornographic. (This principle was at work in Carl's analysis of 632)
Often, an XKCD strip will have a decent idea with the potential for some LOLs, and then Randall will fuck it up. Our service will be to explain how he fucked up, and make fun of him for it, and occasionally fix it. But here, there's nothing to fix, and nothing really to make fun of. Its the carbon ash of a comic: it has no potential energy for anything, but is in a completely stable, useless form. But each strip starts with the promise of funny. The very fact that a strip was made and proffered to us, the public, implies that there is some good in it. Presumably if it started with the promise of carbon ash, it would not be proffered. But, as has been noted elsewhere in this blog, the goal of a webcomic is comedy; when a strip does not meet that goal it has failed. Failure is not mediocre! Failure is bad!"

Designer - Snickerdoodle Designs
I started "scrapbooking" before the craft was actually given a formal name. I still remember being thrilled when all the wonderful papers and elements started hitting the local craft stores! In 2008 I created an on-line photo album, using the company-supplied templates. While I liked the process, I wondered if I couldn't "fancy up" the pages just a bit….. I soon discovered the absolute joy and wonder of digital scrapping (which I had so strenuously and fervently resisted!). Like so many other digital converts, my hobby room is filled with drawers and cabinets of papers, glue, ribbons, glitter………. you get the idea, I'm sure.
When I get interested in something, I don't "dabble." I dive in head-first and want to know anything and everything about the craft. So it was not a surprise, but also a natural progression for me to go from my initial interest in exploring the craft to creating my own elements.
I started designing in January 2010, and needed a design name. Because I want my designs to inspire in others warm feelings of love, comfort, and peace, I tried to think of what inspired those things in me. The first thing that came to my mind was my Mom's cookies (I'm soooo simple!) – and SnickerdoodleDesigns was born. (My mom lost her battle with breast cancer at the age of 44, when I was just 23, so my design name is very personal to me.)
I love nature and you will find that theme in much of my work. I design from emotions, either those I have experienced or ones that I wish to invoke in others; therefore, my kits are all very personal to me. There is always a story, a thought, or a personal emotion behind them.
I love making papers and can spend many hours getting just the right color or texture that I want. I love that "ah-ha" moment when something comes together, and I stop in my tracks, knowing that I have just achieved what I wanted.
What I find most rewarding about design work is seeing others use my creations in their own projects. I know it sounds really "cheezy" to say that I truly consider it an honor when someone utilizes my designs to create something special of their own – but that really is the truth. ;)

John Bogar and Jennifer Sue Johnson in Seattle Shakespeare Company's 2010 production of "The Turn of the Screw." Photo by John Ulman
Darling Nora enjoys a comfortable life with her family and loves her husband Torvald above all else. So much so, that she's risked a small lie in order to save his reputation and protect their cozy existence. When the truth worms its way out with a threat of blackmail, Nora begins to question her devotion and find herself forced into making a life-altering decision: honor her marriage or pursue her duty to herself.

Bathrooms are the biggest household water guzzlers -- accounting for more than one half of a family's indoor water use, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). All that soaking, showering, flushing and brushing adds up -- and harms the environment by draining aquifers and unloading tons of wastewater into sewer or septic systems.
And don't get too smug in Canada -- the numbers are similar and the water fixes are all beneficial.
Cutting water waste
The first step to saving water in the bathroom is to fix any faucets or fixtures that leak. A leaky toilet that's constantly running can waste 200 gallons (910 litres) of water per day, the EPA notes. In fact toilets, not showers, are a home's largest water user -- flushing away nearly 30 per cent of the water in an average home.
After fixing the leaks, make a simple switch: "One of the easiest things to do is change the aerators on your faucets," says Scott Fradenburg, sales manager for Green Depot, which sells green home supplies. An aerating sink faucet costs about $2 and can be installed in minutes. The tiny screw caps add air to the water, slowing the flow without noticeably impacting water pressure.
When considering new fixtures, look for the WaterSense label, an EPA consumer confidence designation that certifies faucets, toilets and shower-heads that are 20 per cent more efficient --and equal to or better in quality -- than average products. Also check out www.ec.gc.cafor water-saving tips from the Canadian government.
Mind your flushes
Older toilets installed before 1980 likely use from five (22.7 litres) to seven (31.8 litres) gallons of water per flush; models from between the '80s and early '90s use about three-and-a-half gallons (15.9 litres) per flush. Newer, more water-efficient standard models use about 1.6 gallons (7.28 litres or less). Other eco-options include dual-flush toilets and compost toilets.
Dual-flush toilets give users a super-low-flow option (about a gallon of water) for urine-only flushes and a second flusher for number twos. They range from $500 to $800 and are available from the companies Kohler and Caroma.
But any old toilet can be converted to a dual-flush rather inexpensively using a system such as the HydroRight Drop-In Dual Flush Converter ($24.95; eartheasy.com),which works with all standard flush valves. Once installed, the unit replaces your flusher with a two-way up-or-down button.
Composting toilet systems, which average $1,500 or more, use the least amount of water and biodegrade waste on-site. Some composting toilets use no water and simply let gravity pull waste down to a compost receptacle beneath the house; others use a little water to wash waste into the composting component. The composter evaporates waste water and mixes in aerobic microbes.
Shower splashdown
Though some people love the blast of high-pressured water or the oversized rain style showerheads that guzzle by the litre, ecoconscious homeowners will want to minimize the torrential downpour. New federal regulations mandate that showerhead flow rates must remain under 2.5 gallons (11.37 litres) per minute. Shop around, and you'll find showerheads that flow at 1.75 gallons (7.9 litres) per minute or less.
Not sure if you've got a low-flow showerhead? Place a bucket under your shower and turn it on. If it takes less than 20 seconds to collect one gallon (4.55 litres), you could use a low-flow showerhead. And, says Fradenburg, "The way these showerheads are designed you still feel like you're getting the [same] pressure."
Much water is wasted when we wait for our shower to warm up. Consider installing a showerhead with 'showerstart' technology from Evolve ($69.95 for a rain shower with pulsating spray). After you turn on the shower, the cold water flows out normally until the water reaches bathing temperatures -- 40 degrees Celsius -- and then it slows to a trickle. You flip a switch or pull a cord to get the full flow going when you step into the shower.
Saving at the sink
Reuse grey water from handwashing by replacing the lid of your toilet tank with a sink-lid. Sink Positive (about $100, by Environmental Designworks) sits on top of the toilet tank and draws the cold, pristine water through the faucet for handwashing. Then, used grey water is drained into the tank for flushing. In this way, hand-washing doesn't require extra water. Water flows automatically with the fresh water refill cycle after each flush, so you need not touch handles or knobs with dirty hands.
You can also consider a smaller-sized sink. Caroma sells sinks that have smaller capacities. "The bowl size is 2.5 litres and that limits someone filling up a sink with water that they don't need," Fradenburg says.

Maxine (Lare) McKnight, 87, of Brock, died at her home with family around her on Jan. 20, 2013. She was born Oct. 4, 1925 in Lincoln to Maurice and Nellie (Arnold) Lare. She graduated from Brock High School.
Maxine (Lare) McKnight, 87, of Brock, died at her home with family around her on Jan. 20, 2013. She was born Oct. 4, 1925 in Lincoln to Maurice and Nellie (Arnold) Lare. She graduated from Brock High School.
On Oct. 4, 1944 Maxine married Lester R. McKnight in Seneca, Kan. Maxine and Lester spent their entire married life in the Brock area.
Maxine devoted her life to her family, from helping Mick on the farm to raising her children to caring for her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. She was also known as "Grandma Max" to many others in Brock and elsewhere.
A longtime member of the United Methodist Church in Brock, Maxine served in many capacities on the church council and taught Sunday school for many years. She attended many annual conference meetings, including a national church conference in New York. Also an active community worker, Maxine worked on the Brock Community Action group and with the state on Community Improvement Projects, which led to a meeting with Governor Bob Kerrey. She served on the Voting Board and as an active member of the Democratic Party. She had many goals putting out a family magazine and getting sayings together for her grandchildren.
Her husband Lester, daughter Connie Jo Smith, brother Jim Kelly, and sisters Loretta Elliot and Mary Lou Trewin preceded her in death.
She is survived by daughters and sons-in-law Linda and Albert Zook of Nebraska City and Sharon and Steve Bowen of Brock; grandchildren and spouses Gregory and Yvonne King, Douglas and Caron King, Michael and Tracy King, Tim and Lisa Bowen, Eric Bowen, Michelle and Carter Schrage, Colin Cathcart, Sahara Cathcart, and Ana Cathcart; 18 great-grandchildren; 10 great-great-grandchildren; sister Margaret Kelly of Fond du Lac, Wis.; brother Dan and wife Carmeletta Kelly of Summerfield, Fla., many other relatives and friends.
Funeral services were Jan. 23 at the Brock United Methodist Church, officiated by Rev. Larry Tolen. Kathleen Parker accompanied solos by herself and a duet by Jere Gravatt and Phyllis Gravatt.
Pallbearers were John Hawley, Charlotte Eastland, John Ostrander, Don Dougherty, John Jeanneret, Kent Gerking, Bob Schmucker, and Ross Sandfort. Flower attendants were Trish Hendricks and Sharron Randolph. Burial was in the Clifton Cemetery near Brock.
Services were entrusted to Hemmingsen Funeral Home of Auburn.

There's a lot of fawning and hyperbole and "Best Seahawks QB ever" talk about Russell Wilson right now. He's being compared favorably to Matt Hasslebeck, people get offended that people are comparing a rookie qb to the greatest Seahawks quarterback ever, round and round we go.
But, nonetheless, I'm going to compare the two for one simple purpose.
My biggest gripe with Hasslebeck, and I dug the guy, was he wasn't a closer. He wasn't the guy that was going to win on the road in the playoffs. Hell, he wasn't even going to win against good teams on the road in the regular season. I think he got a little rattled, became too careful, and sometimes rushed things a bit. He did a lot of great things too and had a few iconic performances be forgotten because of the errors of his teammates(2003 Wild Card game comes to mind). I loved Hasslebeck, gutsy as hell, absolutely lethal when he was on. But he wasn't a closer. A closer doesn't clam up in OT against Chicago in 2006. A closer says, "BS holding call? I don't give a shit" and throws a touchdown on third and long in the Super Bowl after the Locklear hold instead of a horrible interception.
I've always wanted a closer at quarterback. A guy who could take a team 97 yards against a legendary defense in a hostile environment when few things had gone right all day and drive down for a winning touchdown. Then, some crazy shit happens, and he has to do it again. Guess what? He does it.
The Seahawks have never had that guy. Dilfer never did it, Moon never did it, Kitna, Friesz, Mirer, Toretta, Mcguire, Stouffer, Jeff Kemp, they never pulled something like that off. The Seahawks haven't won a game like that, on the road, against a good, not mediocre, a legitimately good team, coming from behind in the final minutes, since 1990 at KC(look it up, 22 years of no clutch road victories). Krieg was hot and cold. He'd win you games and lose you games like that.
As some of you may remember, I was extremely opposed to starting Russell Wilson during the preseason and through the first month of the season. I think I might have been wrong. I'm not going to try and qualify his greatness, or anything like that. With that said, Wilson has shown me something that will stick with me for a long time. When a lot of players shrink away, Wilson was cold blooded, and it permeated the entire offense. The Seahawks don't typically win games like that. But they did on Sunday. And that's pretty damn exciting.

One; that the officer in charge of commissioning posters for the Office of War Information rejected Rockwell's proposal because he was "an illustrator" and the department had decided to use only fine artists, "real artists", for their poster assignments during WWII.
Two; that in the opinion of Saturday Evening Post editor Ben Hibbs, Norman Rockwell had created "great art" in the making of 'Freedom of Speech' and 'Freedom of Worship' - although Hibbs felt Rockwell would disagree because "he has always modelled himself an 'illustrator' with no pretensions of fine art."
The "pretensions of fine art"... "real artists"...
How the world perceives fine art vs. illustration and how artists perceive themselves in their capacity as visual communicators continues to frustrate and fascinate me.
Based on the excellent, thought-provoking discussion that transpired on the last Ben Shahn post (and which I hope will continue on this one) many people, like the officer at the War Information department, have too narrow a definition of fine art and illustration and their relative merits.
It strikes me that most people don't 'get' what "real art" is or who "real artists" are. It strikes me that many people seem to have some pretty unrealistic expectations of both art and artists and the relative merit and quality of their work.
I remain unsure if Ben Shahn considered himself a fine artist or an illustrator - despite all I've read by and about him - or, quite frankly, if it would even have mattered to Shahn.
I do know that he considered himself a realist (no doubt Norman Rockwell considered himself one as well) and that realism was a 'trending topic' in both fine art and illustration during the mid-20th century.
The January 1953 issue of Art Director & Studio News offered both an observation and a prediction about trends in commercial art at that time...
... a trend toward realism.
Further on in that same issue, a survey of industry professionals in major art markets across America confirmed the editors' opinions...
Illustration was becoming increasingly realistic.
Later that same year Ben Shahn wrote an article in Look magazine wherein he challenged the accepted definition of what qualifies as "realism."
As requested by one reader, here is that article in its entirety. I think it conclusively describes Shahn's position on the subject of realism.
To summarize I'll quote Bill Koeb from the previous Ben Shahn post's comment section: "Before there were lenses, and long before there were cameras, what was considered "real" was very different. Realism is what you draw, not how you draw."
The following year, in Life magazine, Shahn's work was the subject of a major multi-page, full-colour article. If there was any doubt that Ben Shahn was a driving force in American art at that time, the glowing description of Shahn stature in both the Look and Life magazine articles should put them to rest.
I find it particularly amusing that Shahn's work is described as "too photographically realistic"!
Readers who participated in last week's discussion on Ben Shahn shared so many interesting perspectives. Here are a few more that came to me via personal emails -- and then a few thoughts of my own...
Anita Virgil, whom I quoted in last week's Ben Shahn post sent this note:
"What a fantastic writeup on Ben Shahn you give your readers! But I must address those Doubting Thomases out there who would denigrate or question Shahn's different approach to expressing emotion via design and utter simplicity, I refer them to his own words from his classic, The Shape of Content, (Vintage Book, 1957) -- a must for every artistic individual to absorb."
"They appear in his section "On Nonconformity" p. 88:"
"But it seems to be less obvious somehow that to create anything at all in any field, and especially anything of outstanding worth, requires nonconformity, or a want of satisfaction with things as they are. The creative person -- the nonconformist — may be in profound disagreement with the present way of things, or he may simply wish to add his views, to render a personal account of matters."
Contrasting that viewpoint, Tom Watson sent the following:
"Your Ben Shahn post fired up an interesting and varied viewpoint on his influence and the '50s, '60s illustration scene. It was quite controversial even when I was in art school. Ben Shahn was either loved and embraced or hated and scorned. I think his simplicity of composition and unusual point of view in these examples are worthy of the influence they generated, but some of his stuff was too crude and primitive looking for my personal taste in illustration technique. IMO there needed to be and was a separation between fine arts and illustration, even though they began spilling over into each other's territory. Illustration required some restriction and control in order to communicate to all targeted viewers."
At least one commenter from last week would counter Tom's assertions by saying that Shahn was many things - but he was not an illustrator - therefore he was not bound by the implied standards of professional conduct expected of the commercial artist. Personally, I reject the notion that Shahn was not an illustrator (and if he was, so what?).
As a visual communicator, the illustrator's job is to use his creativity to solve a client's communications challenges. That process often means undertaking work where one's own creativity takes a back seat to the client's needs and wishes. Although I'm sure Ben Shahn was selective about many of the assignments he chose to work on, he was not above doing work that asked little more of him creatively than his distinctive style.
This ad for Fortune magazine's subscription page, for instance...
... or this article about business trends in paperback publishing...
... or this DPS ad for the State of Israel, all of which really asked nothing more of Shahn than to decorate the page with appropriate illustrations in his distinctive style.
Shahn's work appeared regularly in trade publication ads for the '50s graphic arts service, Jobs Unlimited, suggesting his relationship with the graphic arts community - the commercial art community - was a sincere one.*
Just a few examples of how Ben Shahn was perfectly willing to provide professional service for payment as a journeyman illustrator and, in so doing, he demonstrated a realistic attitude about his role as a visual communicator (as well as his own brand of stylistic 'realism').
Its a complex subject - and as with so many other aspects of art and picture-making, one that's hard to quantify or to draw definitive conclusions about.
Personally, I believe Ben Shahn 'got' real... the question remains, do you?

Whatever you want to call this still-vital category, here are my predictions for the top BI trends of 2013, along with a few looks back at highlights of 2012.
1. Dashboards Evolve, Expand
You would think that there's not much room for dashboard innovation now that they're the bread-and-butter BI interface, already in use among most large and midsized companies. And yet dashboards were rated the top priority for expansion and innovation in the BI Scorecard 2012 Successful BI Survey. The dashboard's rise to prominence is a confluence of next-generation technology along with a recognition that BI must be aligned to business goals to be successful.
[ Want more on trends in the year ahead? Read 5 Cloud App Trends To Expect In 2013. ]
Access to data alone doesn't help a company improve. Next-generation dashboards keep workers focused on the right metrics and inform in a way that lets employees take preemptive action. Key features enabling such dashboards include in-memory processing, the ability for users to mash data together and to assemble their own dashboards, KPIs, faceted (filter-by-category) search, mobile, and the ability to link insight to action.
With big BI platform vendors IBM, Microsoft, and SAP generally lagging the dashboard capabilities provided by specialty vendors, customers will continue to mix and match systems from different providers in 2013. Differentiated leaders include QlikTech, which supports rapid deployment and intuitive "associative" analysis, JackBe, which has strong operational dashboards, and Metric Insight, which offers top-notch KPIs.
Look for all vendors in this space to continue to improve their capabilities in 2013. SAP, for example, recently released its next-generation dashboard tool, Design Studio, though data-source support is initially limited to SAP BW and the Hana in-memory database. Look for SAP to improve related mobile and data-visualization capabilities. SAP will also eventually integrate and merge its once-leading Xcelsius dashboarding product, now rebranded "Dashboards," into Design Studio. QlikTech also is expected to release a next-generation dashboarding product this year.
Looking back, one important dashboard release in 2012 was Oracle Endeca Information Discovery, acquired by Oracle at the end of 2011 and adapted to run on its Exalytics appliance. Oracle classifies this product as a discovery tool, but in my view it's best positioned as a dashboard application uniquely positioned to explore unstructured data using faceted search.
2. Self-Service BI Gets Real
Self-service BI continues to be a vision for many companies in which users are empowered to explore new data sets without much IT support. Visual-data-discovery tools have become synonymous with self-service BI and are growing at three times the pace of the overall BI market. Unfortunately, some vendors are too quick to attach the visual discovery moniker to their products. As I wrote in the latest BI Scorecard Strategic and Product Summary report, there's a continuum of self-service BI capabilities that ranges from interactive reporting to business query to visual data discovery, and yes, even to tools such as spreadsheets.
My hope in 2013 is that practitioners recognize this range of self-service, and that vendors help educate rather than just jumping on whatever bandwagon has the most hype. Leading companies will make the shift to self-service BI, both to empower workers and to ensure the smartest allocation of constrained IT resources.
In our Successful BI Survey, 44% of respondents say BI teams do not have adequate time, funding or resources to keep up with BI demand. With the fight for BI talent, simply hiring more people is not the solution. Instead, business users have to embrace responsibility for routine BI tasks. At the same time, IT has to let go of some of the mundane enhancement requests and focus on complex data challenges and leveraging innovations.
In 2013 Tableau will release version 8 of its software, which will include browser and iPad-based authoring, a relative rarity in the visual data discovery category.
Also look for improvements in other first-generation visual discovery products:
-- SAS Visual Analytics Explorer, first released in February 2012, is due out with a new version that will support calculated columns, forecasting, decision trees, and maps.
-- Microsoft's Power View via SharePoint (released in Q1 2012) will reemerge as an Excel add-in.
-- AP Visual Intelligence, first released for Hana in March 2012, is now on a six-week release cycle, gaining support for more data sources and capabilities.
3. Mobile BI Boosts BI Adoption
Just when you thought the dust had settled on the question of tablet leadership (the iPad), Microsoft released the Windows Surface and Apple missed Wall Street earnings estimates. Prime-time ads for the Surface abound! And oh, how I would love to more easily synch my Outlook calendar!
Gone are the days when corporate IT can set mobile device standards. Instead, users are increasingly bringing their own devices, forcing IT (and BI vendors) to support a broad swath of smartphones and tablets. The most promising way to support diversity is to support HTML5, but the best user experience continues to be through device-native apps. Just what those apps need to support is a moving target, as user requirements evolve. For example, availability of offline data-interaction capabilities -- rare in 2011, but supported by specialty vendor RoamBI -- increased in 2012 with MicroStrategy, SAP Mobile and Oracle Mobile HD adding such capabilities.
Will we see native support for Microsoft Surface in 2013, or will vendors use the HTML5 approach for this device? It's too early to tell, but I don't anticipate any broad shift. The debate about which capabilities to provide on smartphones versus tablets will continue. Mobile Device Management will remain a separate market segment, but savvy mobile BI providers and customers will integrate with these solutions so that when a device is lost or stolen, there is additional security beyond just a user name and password so that offline data can be wiped.
Mobile will also continue to drive BI adoption in 2013, re-igniting executive interest and making BI more relevant to field and front-line workers. In last year's Successful BI Survey, only 11% of respondents said their firms had successfully deployed mobile BI. BI adoption at those firms stood at 39% of employees, far ahead of the industry average of 24% of employees.

Defendants plead guilty to robbery of USPS truck in 2009
Two Bakersfield men have been sentenced to federal prison terms for their part in the 2009 hijacking and robbery of a United States Postal Service Truck and the kidnapping of the driver in Taft.
Raul Ojeda, 42, received an 8-year, one month prison term and Daniel Diaz, 26, was sentenced to 7 years.
Ojeda and Diaz were also ordered to repay the $13,860 taken in the robbery.
Both men pleaded guilty to crime, in which Diaz jumped in the cab of the truck when it was stopped at a stop sign and forced the driver to drive at gunpoint to the empty West Side Hospital campus.
There the driver was threatened and ordered to tie himself up.
The robbery and kidnapping took place on Oct. 16, a Friday night.
The mail truck had stopped at Highway 119 when the hijacking took place.
Once the driver was tied up, the defendants took his keys and opened the rear of the truck up and removed 7 postal bags containing, mail and bank deposits, including cash, according to the United States Attorney.
Ojeda was a former driver for the company the USPS contracted to pick up the mail in the area, according to court documents filed in connection with the case. He is Diaz' uncle.
He was the mastermind behind the robbery, according the law enforcement officials
The suspects were arrested about six months after the robbery in Bakersfield.
The defendants were also ordered to repay the $13,860 that they stole from the truck during the robbery.
Ojeda and Diaz each pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery of mail, money or other property of the United States on Nov. 13.

A ban on smoking in public places, such as bus stops, playgrounds and picnic pavilions, might go into effect as soon as Dec. 5.
The City Council is scheduled to adopt the ordinance Nov. 20. The law then would be effective 10 days after advertised in The Durango Herald on Nov. 25.
Smokers could be fined $100 for a first offense and $200 to $300 for consecutive fines in the same calendar year. Proceeds would go to anti-tobacco and smoking-cessation efforts.
When it goes into effect, the ban still could come as a surprise to smokers because City Manager Ron LeBlanc said at a recent meeting that he is not sure when signs for the ban would be posted in public areas.
City Councilor Sweetie Marbury had asked about the signs so she can approach smokers who are lighting up in public places such as the Animas River Trail.
Mayor Doug Lyon said he thought approaching smokers about the ban was a little intrusive but Marbury was free to do what she wanted.
The mayor originally opposed the inclusion of the river trail because he doubted whether smokers in remote spots would bother people on the trail.
But Lyon agreed to the river trail for the sake of promoting health. He said the laws intent really is about setting a good example as opposed to eliminating the danger of secondhand smoke.
Lyon said if the city wanted to go after every public menace, there would be seat belts on chairs.
The proposed ban applies to city-owned or operated property with exceptions for Hillcrest Golf Course and outdoor religious ceremonies performed by Native Americans.
Sidewalks are not included in the city ban, but the states Clean Indoor Air Act already prohibits smoking within 15 feet of a business entrance, City Attorney David Smith said.
The proposal originally extended the ban to the patios of bars and restaurants, but that section was removed after protests by smokers and business owners.
San Juan Basin Health Department and other health groups have urged the council to adopt the ban.
According to the ordinance, anyone with a complaint about the ban is advised to contact the health department or the Durango Police Department.

A scout in this article says blow em up - get rid of everybody. Callabro on TV last night said keep Cousins - 17 and 10 7-foot center with anger-management issues - but bring in some vets to mentor the kid. Cousins is a future all pro. The team also has Tyreke Evens - first round pg with diminishing returns.
This team could very easily tank for the rest of the season - the old coach and whole regiem is on the way out. We could end up with a high lottery pick. The new gm has trade-bait, if he wants to go that route. Barely over the salary cap. Lots of options.

My Ravelry project notes tell me that I started this project back in August 08, worked on it in my usual undisciplined, distracted way and put it down sometime last January with the prescient comment that "...maybe I'll pick this up sometime next November". And wouldn't you know that naturally being a woman of my word and all I actually did just that, without even realizing it? Cue Twilight Zone music...
The Specs
Pattern: Ingenue from Custom Knits by Wendy Bernard
Yarn: Karabella Marble #35353, 9.75 skeins
Needles: Size 8
Mods: No waste shaping because well HELLO do I really need to go into all that AGAIN with you people? The neckline is a thing of beauty--love it to death. Blocking worked some serious miracles in this sweater & just kicked the whole thing into the zone of pure satisfaction.
In case you're wondering, yes I am aware that I look like a John Waters character in the above picture. I'm blaming the photographer and his unwillingness to take direction.
Babs and I are all about doing the pattern out of the yarn it's written for--I know that this might be some sort of puerile impulse, but occasionally it works out for us. And this is one of those times. Weirdly I happened to have 12 balls of Karabella Marble (a yarn that I could swear was discontinued briefly) in my stash and so cast on with great enthusiasm. Ah yes, that initial enthusiasm...if only we could bottle that and sell it. That I still had the yarn was very fortuitous as I had even tried to destash the yarn at one point, but luckily none of the
Well, I'm about 23 years late to the whole ingenue/gamine party, but I suppose that since the sweater is the opposite of 'matronly', I'm still in the acceptable age range for wearing this--but only just barely. Can you tell that the photographer and I were having some marital issues during the photo shoot? He might have called me 'picky and demanding', and I might have called him a 'negative douche bag'...
I must say it feels good to dip into that 'zzzzz' pile and finish some projects that have been darkening my door and making me feel mentally ill. It's a good thing, too, because I seem to have stepped up my whole maniacally casting on for everything in sight routine--to the point that my 'only work on three projects at a time' policy is being put dangerously into question.
As you can see, we reached a tentative cease-fire by the end of our shoot, but I'm not expecting this to last...
