I apologize for the thread necromancy, but I encountered quite the pair of Donalds last night in Stormstout Brewery. Yes, Donalds still exist in MoP!
The Group!
Tank: Druid (pretty Donald-ish)
Healer: Priest (the Donald)
DPS1: Mage
DPS2: Hunter
DPS3: DK (Me)
You know it's going to be a bad group when the healer pulls mobs for the tank. At least the tank could hold aggro and pulled off of the healer about 95% of the time. When we get too Ook-Ook's room, the tank freezes up, so what does our intrepid priest do? He hops on a beer keg and steers it into a pack of hozen. So unfortunately, the tank decides to follow suit, not giving a whit about aggro. I herded up the hozen and helped the other dps burn them down until we got our 50 monkeyman kills. I thought it couldn't get much worse. I was wrong.
The priest, in all of his wisdom, drives a keg into Ook and starts hitting him with Penance so he could Atonement-bubble himself, but he was going down pretty fast. I managed to pick the monkey king up pretty quickly and DW Frost tanked him. I was a little rusty, since I haven't tanked since going through Northrend content over a year ago, let alone ever considering Frost tanking (DK was left to languish on my old server after server-transferring my other high leveled toons until last month). I didn't move out of some ground pounds quickly enough, but I managed to Death Strike spam-heal myself and keep Ook off of everyone else. I kept waiting for the druid, but no such luck. I thankfully got him down without losing a single party member. After Ook bit it, the druid finally remembers they're the tank and starts to pick off the Vermin in the gauntlet before Hoptallus one by one. We had to tell Druid to just run so we could AoE them down just outside the Hoptallus fight. The rest of the dungeon was fairly uneventful, barring the fact that the tank wouldn't pull Alementals out of carbonation puddles before the end boss fight. On the plus side, I got some shiny new bracers to rebuild my tanking set.

The period since the MotoGP circus rolled up at Silverstone has been pretty frantic. Almost as soon as the teams and riders arrived in the UK, the negotiations over 2015 and beyond started.
The developments around Gresini's impending switch to Aprilia triggered a further round of haggling and fundraising, with several teams and riders trying to cover all the possible permutations of the Honda RC213V becoming available.
The submission date for the Moto2 and Moto3 entries intensified the bargaining over rider placements, the field split into those who must pay, and those who will be paid. Time for a quick round up of all that has happened.
The most pressing problem in MotoGP at the moment is the situation around Scott Redding and the Honda RC213V being abandoned by Gresini. Where that bike goes depends on just a single factor: money. Aspar is interested in the bike, but cannot raise the extra money it would cost over and above the cost of a Honda RCV1000R.
Marc VDS Racing is in a desperate scramble to find the last 1.9 million euros they need to plug the gap in their budget if they are to move up to MotoGP. LCR Honda could perhaps find the budget to put Redding alongside Cal Crutchlow, and having two British riders would greatly please CWM FX, the British foreign exchange trading firm stepping in as a title sponsor.

long beach >> Ross Mathews said his trajectory from an intern on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" to TV personality is "the most outrageous story involving an intern since Monica Lewinsky."
"I started as an unpaid intern bringing mail to people, and then I was the longest serving correspondent on the most iconic show in TV," said Mathews, who was on the show 12 years. "It's one of those Hollywood folklore stories."
Mathews' meteoric rise — his latest gig is hosting his own talk show, "Hello Ross," on E! — hasn't gone unnoticed.
Mathews, who is gay, will receive the Celebrity Icon Award from the Long Beach LGBTQ Center this month. Ross will be recognized at the center's gala, The Black & White Ball, on March 15 at The Grand Event Center, 4101 E. Willow St.
Tickets are $125 each and available on The Center's website, www.centerlb.org or at The Center, 2017 E. Fourth St.
"We chose Ross because he's never had to compromise who he is," said Ron Sylvester, the center's board chair. "He's gay. He's been out from his first appearance on television. He never had a cover story."
Mathews said he could never have been in the closet while working on television.
"I had no choice but to be out. Hello. Have you seen me," Mathews said, chuckling.
Yet once he left the "Tonight Show" (which Mathews said was always supportive of him) and was looking for another job, various producers told him he was too gay.
"There were times I was told, 'You are too gay.' I turned down a lot of things because producers said they wanted me to be different. I said, it's not going to happen," Mathews said during a phone interview from his production office in Universal City.
"It happened less than you would think," Mathews said. "It never got me down for a second. I just thought, they didn't get it. I'll find another job."
Mathews' latest job is "Hello Ross," which airs at 10 p.m. Fridays.
In its second season, the show is taped before a live audience and focuses on pop culture with guest interviews and discussions on celebrities.
"Since I was 8 years old, I wanted to be a talk show host," said the 34-year-old, who was born and raised in Mount Vernon, Wash., but graduated from the University of La Verne as a communications major.
"It's authentic," he said. "It's me being me. There were no other options for me. I'm not good enough for anything else.
"If I can have a job being myself, I'll always be employed."

Russia After Putin
May 02, 2014
Authored by Dr. Richard J. Krickus.
View the Executive Summary
This monograph addresses the question: "What next after Putin?" The answer will have a profound impact on U.S.-Russian relations—in particular, the capacity to forge a security relationship. The campaign to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons indicates that a new "reset" is in the making.
The Afghanistan Question and the Reset in U.S.-Russian Relations
October 21, 2011
Authored by Dr. Richard J. Krickus.
The ability of the United States and Russia to cooperate in Afghanistan represents a solid test of their reset in relations. Skeptics in Washington cite the value gap that separates the two sides as well as compelling evidence that the Kremlin is bent on a course of confrontation and not cooperation with the West. Russian critics claim that there is no justification for Moscow to help Washington in what many Kremlin overlords believe is a losing cause.
Medvedev's Plan: Giving Russia a Voice but not a Veto in a New European Security System
December 23, 2009
Authored by Dr. Richard J. Krickus.
The author revisits Medvedev's proposal and, while some Western analysts deem the conflicting interests and value gap that separate the West from Russia to be overwhelming, others argue that the time has come to engage Russia in seeking a common security agenda in Europe. The most compelling question confronting those who favor a security partnership with Russia is: How to give Russia a voice but not a veto in a new European security system?
Iron Troikas: The New Threat from the East
March 28, 2006
Authored by Dr. Richard J. Krickus.
The author explains how the Russian leadership has exploited its energy assets to advance its security interests in the vital East Baltic Sea Region, particularly Poland and the Baltic countries.

Moviemaker Michael Polish realized he was destined to marry his "Big Sur" leading lady Kate Bosworth while shooting her naked for the film.
The couple wed this past summer after falling for each other on the film set, and director Polish admits he was so stunned when love washed over him he had to step away from the camera to gather his thoughts.
The filmmaker admits he knew there was something different at play because he usually keeps his distance from his leading ladies.
He tells Los Angeles Confidential magazine, "I was timid and uncomfortable (when she was around), but I started to sense that I might have known this girl for a long time.
"You know when you meet, you go, 'I know what she was like when she was in high school. I know what she was like when she was an adult…' And my gut was right because she is that person that I met that day."
Bosworth accepts she could not have felt more vulnerable in front of her future husband as she shot her nude scene on the first day of filming.
She recalls, "They gave me the option, 'Do you want this on day two?' and I said, 'I'd rather just dive in a do it'."
The actress was then taken aback when her director halted proceedings and dashed off, adding she feared Polish had decided she wasn't right for the part of Billie Dabney.
Bosworth says, "I knew I didn't want to mess anything up because I wanted to work with him again."

Important: This is old documentation; read the new version instead.
Puppet 4.9 and later use Hiera 5, and its documentation is in the Puppet reference manual. See the following pages for more info:
- What is Hiera? How do hierarchies and layers work?
- Migrating existing Hiera configurations to Hiera 5
- Automatic class parameter lookup
We are preserving this Hiera 3 documentation for historical reference, but the Hiera 5 documentation is a complete replacement for it.
Hiera is a key/value lookup tool for configuration data, built to make Puppet better and let you set node-specific data without repeating yourself. See "Why Hiera?" below for more information, or get started using it right away:
Getting started with Hiera
To get started with Hiera, you'll need to do all of the following:
- Make sure it's installed. Hiera ships with Puppet agent, so install the puppet-agent package if you haven't already. (Linux, Windows, OS X.)
- Make a
hiera.yamlconfig file.
- Arrange a hierarchy that fits your site and data.
- Write data sources.
- Use your Hiera data in Puppet (or any other tool).
After you have Hiera working, you can adjust your data and hierarchy whenever you need to. You can also test Hiera from the command line to make sure it's fetching the right data for each node.
Learning from Example
If you learn best from example code, start with this simple end-to-end Hiera and Puppet walkthrough. To learn more, you can go back and read the sections linked above.
Why Hiera?
Making Puppet better
Hiera makes Puppet better by keeping site-specific data out of your manifests. Puppet classes can request whatever data they need, and your Hiera data will act like a site-wide config file.
This makes it:
- Easier to configure your own nodes: default data with multiple levels of overrides is finally easy.
- Easier to re-use public Puppet modules: don't edit the code, just put the necessary data in Hiera.
- Easier to publish your own modules for collaboration: no need to worry about cleaning out your data before showing it around, and no more clashing variable names.
Avoiding repetition
With Hiera, you can:
- Write common data for most nodes
- Override some values for machines located at a particular facility…
- …and override some of those values for one or two unique nodes.
This way, you only have to write down the differences between nodes. When each node asks for a piece of data, it will get the specific value it needs.
To decide which data sources can override which, Hiera uses a configurable hierarchy. This ordered list can include both static data sources (with names like "common") and dynamic ones (which can switch between data sources based on the node's name, operating system, and more).

"My goal is to produce the highest quality cookware available anywhere."
Terry Silverman
Since moving from Detroit, Michigan in 1973, I have been making flameware pottery. Starting my own business, The Pottery Works in 1977.
I work alone using studio methods of throwing or hand building my cookware. I once fire my pieces to cone 13 2450° F in a 120 cubic foot kiln.
Flameware Pottery
Handmade by Terry Silverman at The Pottery Works in Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire, this cookware suits the needs of everyone in the kitchen, from the gourmet chef to the everyday cook.
Flameware is safe to use directly over a gas flame or an electric burner as well as in the oven and even the microwave.
These pots provide an even heating surface and continue to hold heat long after they have been removed from the oven or stovetop.
Like most cookware, you will want to use a cooking medium such as oil, butter, or another liquid.
Never use your Flameware dry.
After food has been removed, quenching hot pans with water will make cleaning a breeze.
Pots are diswasher safe and can be cleaned with metal pads or utensils; they are very durable and almost impossible to scratch.

NEW YORK -- Oil fell 2 percent Friday as traders fretted that jobs aren't growing fast enough in the U.S. to significantly boost demand for fuel.
Benchmark oil closed down $1.83 to $89.88 per barrel in New York.
The economy created 114,000 jobs in September, in line with what economists had expected. But those extra commuters might not budge the needle on gas demand, which was down 2.5 percent from a year earlier in the four weeks ended Sept. 28, according to Energy Department figures released Wednesday.
"That doesn't suggest really strong job growth," Gene McGillian, broker and analyst at Tradition Energy. McGillian said the report, combined with the fact that there are ample supplies of oil and low demand, drove prices lower.
Oil prices were volatile toward the end of the week as traders try to gauge the strength of global oil demand while also watching developments surrounding Syria for any signs of a disruption in supplies from the Middle East.
The last time oil had a three-day stretch where it gained or lost 2 percent or more each day was from June 20 to June 22.
The national average for gasoline rose a half-cent to $3.789 a gallon. Californians saw an extraordinary spike in gas prices because of refinery issues _ up 17 cents on average overnight _ while prices in most other states held steady or declined by a penny or two.
In London, Brent crude, which is used to price international varieties of oil, fell 56 cents to $112.02.
Among other energy futures traded in New York:
_ Natural gas gave up a penny to end at $3.396 per 1,000 cubic feet.
_ Heating oil fell 3.25 cents to $3.16 per gallon.
_ Wholesale gasoline gained a tenth of a penny to settle at $2.95 per gallon.

We haven't even heard most of Massive Attack maestro Neil Davidge's Halo 4 soundtrack but it's already being mashed, sliced, and remixed by a bunch of different DJs and producers.
Davidge is taking the reins on the Halo series, which has up until now always featured the iconic work of Martin O'Donnell. The soundtrack itself will be available for purchase on October 22, a few weeks before the game comes out on November 6.
The bonus remix album, which features the work of DJ Skee, KOAN Sound and Matt Lange, will be available as a digital download to anyone who buys the physical CD. You can hear a sampling of the remixes here:
Seems fitting that the Massive Attack guy would bring in so much remix talent. Check out the chanting choir at 9:35! I don't know if that's from the actual track or was added by the remixer, but if I'd be into it if the Halo 4 soundtrack goes in this kind of direction.

Gate Hill Day Camp
Gate Hill Day Camp is a private summer day camp for campers aged 3-15 located in Rockland country, NY. We provide a high end customer service experience and modern facilities, but our attitude is down to earth, approachable and we have a strong sense of family community among our customers. We have a "campy" feel, with silly traditions and special events, We offer a broad mix of sports, arts and swimming. Our strengths are our high level of customer communication (parents are updated on their child's progress regularly by phone/email), our instructional swim program and facilities (4 pools/3 storey super slide!) our setting; a beautiful 33 acres of shady trails set against the backdrop of Harriman State Park; lastly, we pay great attention to the presentation of our facility, constantly making changes and keeping our look fresh - its a beautiful place. Gate Hill is a place that campers feel comfortable, make friends and try new things, be it a sport like handball, art like ceramics or something different like drama, fishing or rock climbing. We have special programs for early childhood, teen travel and our growing arts/sciences division: the Explorers. As a medium sized camp, our size allows us to run a higher quality program than smaller camps, but campers don't get 'lost in the crowd'. Our directors are personable and directly accessible to customers.
Our brand appeals to families that are looking for a high end experience, but value the sense of family community we have and our down to earth/humble attitude. As a medium sized camp, our size allows us to run a higher quality program than smaller camps, but campers don't get 'lost in the crowd'. Our audience is partially our existing community, who get excited about apparel (we provide branded giveaways multiple times a summer). The logo will also have to target new customers who don't know the brand.
See our website http://www.gatehilldaycamp.com for a full introduction to camp, especially the video slideshow in the learn about gate hill section.
We are looking for either a re imagining of our existing logo, or a complete redesign, we will consider designs equally. We truly don't have a 'look' or style in mind. However we are anxious to try and convey the feeling of warmth, and down to earth community that we have, for example a minimalist symbol might be unable to convey that.
It is important that the name of the camp is very clear to read. One of the issues with the existing logo is that the words 'Day Camp' are a little hard to read, customers often look at our displays and then ask us if we are a day camp or a sleepaway camp - the logo should explain the product.
The logo will be used on a variety of apparel, some of which is screen printed in 1 color, over the years we have developed a line drawing version of the logo, as well as a "collegiate logo" that we have used in place of our regular logo in certain instances. We would rather not have 2 discrete logos, and would desire a logo that satisfies (, or could easily have a B+W version that satisfies) this goal. We sometimes use the abbreviation GHDC with in house families.
The logo will be used in a variety of print and web marketing, as well as on letterheads, and its important that it remains clear on a variety of backgrounds, including photos). Our existing logo does a good job of this, but often the spiked "sun rays" at the top are not obvious.

BURLINGTON, Vt. – KG called it.
"I think special teams (are) going to be a big key," junior forward Kevin Goumas said last week when sizing up the two-game series against Vermont.
"We have to get shots to the net and create traffic in front," he said. "The power play takes all five guys moving the puck. When you slow the puck down it allows the other team to recover and get in the shot lanes and block shots, and that's what's been happening."
Inconsistent for much of the season, the power play erupted for four goals over the weekend, including three in Friday night's 4-3 win, and was a major reason the University of New Hampshire hockey team was able to take three of a possible four points from the Catamounts at Gutterson Field House.
The Wildcats' only goal in Saturday's 1-1 tie also came on the power play.
"We've kind of been struggling a little bit before this," said sophomore defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk, "but now it's the present, and that's all that really matters. Come playoff time that will be huge"
Like the power play, van Riemsdyk figured in four of the five goals against Vermont. He had three assists Friday and scored UNH's goal on Saturday. The Wildcats scored three power-play goals in the same game for the first time in more than two years.
"Obviously the power play was big for us," said coach Dick Umile.
After giving up two power-play goals against Boston College, the penalty killing unit returned to form, going 4 for 4 over the weekend, including 3 for 3 Friday night as UNH extended its unbeaten streak to three games (1-0-2).
The Wildcats' penalty kill has been among the nation's best all season.
Vermont had won four of five games and three in a row entering the weekend series against UNH, which fell behind 1-0 in each game. The Catamounts had given up just two goals in its previous three games combined.
"They play a tough system to play against," van Riemsdyk said. "They chip pucks out and pack it in a little bit. It's always a grind, but I thought we battled and came back from down one. Three out of four points isn't bad. You'd like to take all four, but we'll take the positives from it."
The Wildcats managed only two shots on goal in the first period Saturday. Van Riemsdyk's goal at 8:53 of the second came on their fifth shot.
"It was all Vermont the first half of the game," Umile said. "We fought through it and made it a game. They played hard. That's the way it is."
The Wildcats now return home for the final four games of the regular season against UMass and Maine. They host the Minutemen in a two-game series next weekend at the Whittemore Center.
UNH is trying to build some momentum after taking four of a possible six points from its last three games, including three of four at Vermont.
There are multiple races going on in Hockey East. Six teams remain in contention for the regular-season title or at the very least home ice for a quarterfinal series.
"We'll take three points on a weekend, especially up here," Umile said. "It's a tough place to play. Everybody's fighting for something."
Two points separate first place from fifth with Boston College, UNH and Providence tied for first with 28 points apiece. Merrimack is in fourth with 27 points and UMass-Lowell is fifth with 26. Boston University is in sixth with 24 points.
Meanwhile, four teams are battling for the final two playoff spots, including UMass and Maine. The Minutemen are currently in eighth place with the Black Bears one point behind in ninth.
UNH is 9-3-1 at home this season.
"That's definitely a positive," van Riesmdyk said. "We love playing in front of the home crowd. They always seem to give us energy. We've had a lot of road games, now we're going to get back home and hopefully string some wins together. We've got a good home record. It's nice to be in the familiar confines."
The Wildcats played five of seven games in February on the road, including the last four. Saturday's deadlock was their third in five games.
"Each game you come in wanting to win," van Riesmdyk said. "It was a hard-fought tie. It could have gone either way. I think we'll be pretty positive about taking three out of four (points). Every point is huge so to get one here (Saturday) was big. We got two (points) Saturday. We'll move on and get ready for next weekend."
Goalie Casey DeSmith stopped 30 of 31 shots Saturday after allowing three goals on only 13 shots Friday night.
"He played great (Saturday)," Umile said. "He probably wasn't at his best (Friday) night, but (Saturday) he battled and helped us get this point, no doubt."
The Wildcats improved to 11-0-4 when van Riemsdyk registers at least one point.
"I don't know if I'd put too much into that," he said. "As long as we're putting pucks in the back of the net, that's all that matters."
Goumas suffered a laceration on his forehead and had to leave the game after getting checked into the boards in the second period Saturday. After getting several stitches, he returned for the third period.
"We lost Goumas for half the game," Umile said. "He got hit pretty good, stitches and all that. The guys stayed with it. I think from that point on we battled back."
Freshman forward Kyle Smith made his college debut Friday night. He also played Saturday, skating right wing on a line with senior Scott Pavelski at center and freshman Maxim Gaudreault on the left side.
Junior Nick Sorkin, who has been playing with a cast to protect a broken hand, sat out the weekend series.

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Nov 29, 2012) - Daxor Corporation (
The Board of Directors has approved payment of a dividend of $0.10 per share. The dividend will be paid on Thursday, December 27th to shareholders of record on Tuesday, December 11th. The Company previously paid a dividend in 2012 of $0.10 per share on August 24th.
In 2011, the Company paid a total dividend of $0.25 per share as follows: $0.15 per share on June 16th and $0.10 per share on November 30th.
Daxor Corporation manufactures and markets the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer which is used in conjunction with Volumex, Daxor's single use diagnostic kit. The BVA-100 provides key information that can be used to diagnose and treat various medical conditions including congestive heart failure, hypertension, anemia, blood loss during surgery, trauma, and shock (collapse of blood pressure).
At the present time, physicians must treat these conditions by guessing whether or not they are due to volume expansions or contractions. The Blood Volume Analyzer allows precise quantitation of patients' total blood volume and red blood cell volume, which takes the guesswork out of this process. Appropriate therapies can then be employed to correct excesses or deficits in volume, leading to better outcomes for patients.

EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) ? Indiana coach Tom Crean expects Victor Oladipo to play at Michigan State.
Oladipo limped off the court Saturday with a sprained left ankle in the first half of a win against Purdue and didn't play in the second half.
Crean says Oladipo practiced some on Sunday and is doing a great job of rehabilitating his injury. In a five-point win over the Spartans on Jan. 27, the shooting guard had 21 points, seven rebounds, six assists and three blocks for the Hoosiers.
The winner of Tuesday night's game in East Lansing will earn sole possession of first place in the conference with four regular-season games remaining. Top seeding in next month's NCAA tournament also might be at stake.

I had a rather enjoyable time making something from nothing. I learned about blogging, promoting a blog, how to grow an audience, marketing, and search engine optimization (SEO), to name a few things.
Oh yeah, and I learned a lot about beer! I definitely didn't post everything I learned, even though that was originally the intent when I got started. I got to try a lot of great-tasting beers over the years. Problem is, I was learning faster and tasting more than I was able to devote the time to blog about.
The content of this blog, JustinsBrewReview.blogspot.com, will be available to you as long as the host (Blogspot/Blogger) is around. I hope that you find it to be a good resource. I also plan to maintain my social media presence, at least for a time. Updates will be beer-related, of course, and will likely be geared mainly toward events, news, happenings, etc. local to the greater York, PA area. You can read all of my blog posts related to the York, PA area here.
A hat tip to my mother-in-law, Gina, who encouraged me to venture into the world of blogging almost 3 years ago. And a big thank you to my entire family who supported my efforts. A great big, huge thank you to my wife, Diana, who put up with my antics the most. She was very understanding of my "need" to take a picture of every single beer I tried, and she was always patient while I made my tasting notes.
And now, a resounding "thank you" to my readers. Thank you for reading and for making this blog a success. I had a great time learning, tasting, writing, and then reading your comments here and on social media. I appreciate the connections that I've made with some of you, and I hope that you will stay in touch.
May the road rise up to meet you.Prost!
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
--traditional Gaelic blessing

Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus, two of the three women held captive for about 10 years in a house in Cleveland, are working on a book. And they've got some heavy-hitters to help them.
The book, about their years of imprisonment and daring escape, will be co-written by Pulitzer Prize winners Mary Jordan and Kevin Sullivan, a married team of Washington Post reporters. Jordan is a Cleveland native.
Also on Berry and DeJesus' side is Washington attorney Robert Barnett, who has negotiated book deals for Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Tony Blair, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Laura Bush, Bob Woodward, Dick Cheney, Alan Greenspan, Sarah Palin, Amanda Knox and more. Barnett's office released a statement about the book to the Associated Press on Monday afternoon.
"Many have told, and continue to tell, this story in ways that are both inaccurate and beyond the control of these young women," Berry and DeJesus' attorney James Wooley told ABC news. Gina, Amanda and their families have decided to take control and are now interested in telling the story of what happened to them."
As young women, Berry and DeJesus -- along with a third woman, Michelle Knight -- were abducted in separate incidents by bus driver Ariel Castro from 2002 to 2004 and held captive in his house. They survived sexual assaults, beatings, starvation and abuse. In May, Berry led an escape and the women were freed.
All three women are thought to have kept diaries documenting their experiences in captivity.
Castro pleaded guilty to 937 counts and was sentenced to serve life in prison plus 1,000 years. He was found hanged in his prison cell in September.
Although the AP reports that so far, Barnett has not met with any potential publishers, similar stories of survival from Elizabeth Smart and Jaycee Dugard have been bestsellers.

LETTER: Blood testing easy, inexpensive
For several years, the Zonta Club of Oneida and the Oneida High School Z Club have sponsored the AMBA (Annual Metathasic Blood Analysis) Wellness program, a blood screening program that serves as a community service as well as a fundraiser.
A comprehensive battery of blood tests is available for $38. This service is not covered by health insurance, so if you don't have health insurance, this is a much more affordable opportunity to have your blood tested.
Pre-authorization by your physician is required, but in the past, we have found physicians very willing to give approval to their patients for this very worthwhile program.
We now hold this event twice a year, in September and in March. Our upcoming AMBA program will be Saturday, March 23 at the Oneida High School cafeteria.
Plan now to make your health a priority. Appointments are available from 6-10 a.m. Call 1-800-234-8888 Monday-Friday 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Please provide your physician's name and address at the time of the call.
The Zonta Club does request a $5 sponsor fee at the time of the screening and this money is used to fund educational scholarships for women in our community. Participation will benefit your health and the women of our community so we hope you will plan on joining us in this worth-while endeavor.

Growth Modeling of Longitudinal Data
Argyris Stringaris
posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 12:26 pm
I am new to growth modeling and my questions may sound rather too basic.
I am running a linear growth model, as in example 6.1, except I only have three non-equidistant time points and, in addition, I am regressing the intercept (i) and slope (s) on an outcome y. When I run the model without covariates (for the regression part of it, ie y ON i s) only the intercept is significant; however, when I include covariates (in the regression, eg y ON i s x1 x2), the estimates for the slope and intercept as such change and the slope becomes significant. I am not quite sure I understand why. Does it mean i and s are conditional upon these covariates?
Many thanks
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 5:48 pm
The answer is yes - just like in regular regression the regression coefficients are partical coefficients (the effect of one variable holding other constant). Note also that when you include covariates the model may not fit well even if the unconditional model did fit well, in which case the y on i s x1 x2 estimates are not trustworthy.

Dear Linda and Bengt,
I have tested conditional growth curve models and as I interpret the results, I have got to question whether the "prevalence" or the mean degree of the covariates affect their "power" to influecne the growth factors. For instance, I have emotio(SA) as covariates. In my sample of maltreated children, there are a lot of children experienced EM whereas only a few children experienced SA. I assigned 0 = no experience and 1~5 as severity of the subtype (EM or SA) The results showed significant effects of EM but not SA. Is there a statistically based reason to expect that even though the impact of SA on an individual should be severe(in terms of its effects on mental health) than EM, my data were not "powerful" enough to detect the SA effect due to the small cell size of children with SA experience?
You words of wisdom and advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 - 6:05 pm
I think there is optimal design literature on how the variance of a covariate can affect the power for a slope.

Thank you Bengt, for your guidance for lit search!
posted on Friday, October 02, 2009 - 4:41 pm
Is it possible to include both a time stable and time varying component of the same covariate in a GMM or LCGA model? This model would condition the intercept and slope on a deviation score at each point in time, but also include the covariate's mean across those time points as a predictor of the latent class variable. This parameterization would be similar to one sometimes used pooled time series random effects models.
Linda K. Muthen
posted on Saturday, October 03, 2009 - 8:56 am
I don't think this will work because of singularity among the covariates. You can try it out. You may have to exclude some deviations.

hootie necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 109 diseños de 25 diseñadores freelance.
Logo with associated type treatment for "on air" use by an organization that uses new forms of media, internet, podcast, online video, etc... to reach and communicate with its constituencies
API New Media
API New Media is an organization that uses new forms of media, internet, podcast, online video, etc... to reach and communicate with its constituencies about matters of government and public policy. They have as a goal to share unbiased and clear information that typically does not make mainstream media such as TV, Radio or newspapers.
The logo should be contemporary and reflect the digital format inherent to what they produce. Colors should lend themselves toward trust but not be cliché or tired. The logo should be appealing to both men and women, young and old: but the target audience is women with children aged 30-50. This group is key in the distribution of API new media video clips and web site url and other content via their own email and social, social media networks.
Useage: the logo and type treatment will be used in print BUT the primary use will be online and broadcast application as a computer graphic. Requirements of the logo will be having a simplicity that translates well on screen but stands on its own. On air the logo, type and mark can have any color and gradient as the designer sees fit. In print application not more than 2 color and a one color application will be critical. Simple is better.
- Logo mark and type treatment for words: API New Media, acceptable would be either a mark that incoorprates the type with the logo or a mark with seperate type treatment (prefered)
- uninspired design, cliche use of symbols typically associated with polical organizations such as flags or domes

Read this important safety message:
If you're planning to replace all or parts of your roof, make sure your contractor complies with your local building codes. Non-compliance could result in the removal or separation of your gas vent connections, which could leak carbon monoxide into your home. Inhalation of carbon monoxide poses significant health risks including sickness or death.
Venting normally occurs on residences with gas water heaters and/or furnaces. If your home fits this description, please read the following:
If you have any questions about the permit requirements in your city or county, call your local building permit office.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas that can result as a byproduct of incomplete burning of natural gas or other fossil fuels.
Source: Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement Department
You can prevent dangerous hot water scalding incidents with one quick check to make sure your water heater is set to a temperature of no more than 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Be sure to always check the water temperature before placing a child in a bath tub.
Source: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is urging everyone to have their flexible natural gas appliance connectors checked. Some flexible connectors manufactured between 30 and 40 years ago may require replacement immediately due to high instances of failure.
Do not attempt to check your flexible natural gas appliance connectors yourself. Contact a licensed professional.
Your home or business may have Corrugated Stainless Steel Tubing (CSST) installed if it was built after 1990, or if your natural gas system has been updated since this date.
What are the risks of CSST?
CSST presents a risk if it is not properly grounded. If lightning strikes a building with CSST that is not properly grounded, there is a possibility this lightening could travel along the CSST and cause a leak and perhaps a fire.
If you suspect CSST may be installed at your home or business, contact a licensed electrician to make sure it is grounded properly. A building inspector can confirm whether CSST is present in your building.

I love owning a bamboo steamer, if for no other reason that to display around the kitchen. It's not only a conversation starter whenever new guests visit but also a handy tool for food photography. (Gotta play up the Asian theme sometimes.) Plus, a set of basket and lid usually costs less than $10 in Chinatown.
Of course, there are times when bamboo steamers are useful for actual cooking. Aside from har gow, shumai is possibly the most requested dim sum standard in my family, with the reliable crinkly yellow wonton wrappers snugly encasing the pork-dominant filling. I haven't tackled har gow at home yet, possibly because even 95% of all restaurants I visit fail at the texture of the translucent wrapper. But siu mai I can do.
Yes, this is the same dim sum treat that's also spelled shu mai, siew mai, and siu mai due to the lack of standard Cantonese Romanization. (In Mandarin it's just shao mai). Wrapping is not so complex. Folding shumai is even easier than folding wontons and potstickers, which requires sealing. With siu mai you just need to form the wrapper into a cup and press the sides against the filling.
Try it the next time you're craving dim sum but the nearest good restaurant is too far of a drive. Or flight.
Related Chinese dim sum and "little eats" recipes:
Pork and Shrimp Shumai
Serves 4 to 6
- 1/2 package wonton wrappers, round*
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1/2 pound shrimp, deveined and finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten, for egg wash
- Garnish: 1 small quarter of a carrot, minced
Special equipment: 1 or 2 large bamboo steamers with lid, pastry brush
*If all you have on hand is square wonton wrappers, stack about 10 together at a time, place a round cookie cutter or drinking glass on top as a guide, and slice into circles with a small knife.
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the pork, shrimp, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.
- Spoon a heaping teaspoon of the filling into the center of a wonton wrapper. Lightly brush the sides of the wrapper with egg wash. Squeeze the sides up until the wrapper forms a cup, tucking in the sides and leaving the filling exposed on top. Repeat with the rest of the wrappers. Garnish with orange roe or chopped carrots.
- Line 1 or 2 large bamboo steamer with parchment paper. Fit the steamer basket(s) in the wok and pour enough water into the wok until the water line is 1 inch below the bottom of the steamer. Steam the siu mai for 12 to 15 minutes, until filling is firm to the touch. Serve with soy sauce, chili sauce, or chili oil.

Refinancing Your Home Mortgage
Guest post by Jessica Thorseon at MortgageRefinanceRates.org.
Making the decision to refinance your home mortgage can be difficult and confusing. There are so many different kinds of refinances to choose from, and learning about the benefits and disadvantages of each can cause headaches. In addition, mortgage lenders will seemingly tell you anything you want to hear in order to get you to sign with them for your new refinanced loan. Making decisions about home finances can be difficult with this kind of pressure, and you want to make sure that you are making the best decision that will ultimately provide for yourself and family.
There are many different reasons why you might be or should be considering a mortgage refinance. When you refinance your home, you are changing the terms of your loan so that you are benefitted in some way. You might be interested in taking advantage of the lower mortgage interest rates that are available since the economic downturn several years ago. If you choose to refinance, your interest rate will be lowered and more of your payment will be used to pay off principle and not interest. This
will allow you to maintain the same monthly payment as before but will let you pay off your loan much more quickly. In addition, certain financial circumstances may have enabled you to afford to make a higher monthly payment on your home. Refinancing will allow you to write these new terms into you loan. Not setting new parameters for your loan can end up costing you in hidden fees in penalties if you try to pay more than you are required. If you are able, you may want to consider refinancing your loan for a shorter term, such as a 15 year versus a 30 year mortgage. Shorter loan terms mean higher monthly payments, but carry significantly lower interest rates.
Refinancing is also a great option for people who are remodeling their home or who are consolidating their debts. Refinancing for a higher amount than is owed on your home can enable you to withdraw the extra cash and use it to pay off construction costs. If you are currently struggling with finances, you can also refinance and use the extra cash to pay off other debts. The term of your home loan can then be extended so that the monthly payment is lowered. This usually increases your interest rate, but
allows you to save money each month by paying a lower premium.
If you are interested in saving money on your home or freeing up some cash to make home repairs or pay growing bills, learn more about the mortgage refinance rates in your area and see if you could benefit from a mortgage refinance.

Should newspapers ban climate-change skeptics' letters? (4 letters)
Re: "Ban letters from climate-change skeptics?" Oct. 20 Vincent Carroll column.
Vincent Carroll's column outlining The Denver Post's policy on publishing letters "skeptical that humans are causing climate change" is reasonable, if not responsible. Climate-change science with its innumerable, ever-changing variables lacks the precision of which most other science is capable.
That readers choose to ignore the proven and observable truth is fascinating, like a train wreck, psychologically interesting; and like any fiction, frequently creative.
Please don't claim that the "arbiters of truth" or just "truth" ends debate, which it clearly doesn't; just give truth its due. When the diminishing biosphere and the end of life on Earth as we know it are the subject, it is a debate unlike any other on the pages of your newspaper. It involves some journalistic responsibility. I believe the Los Angeles Times can be proud of its stance to not print, in most cases, climate-change deniers' letters.
Barb Coddington, Glenwood Springs
This letter was published in the Oct. 27 edition.
Vincent Carroll's column on censorship of "warming skeptics" by the Los Angeles Times was an excellent synopsis of the problem.
Wikipedia defines science as "knowledge of testable explanations and predictions." The International Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) has not a single climate model that predicted the current 16-year hiatus of warming. The warming theory is totally based on computer models.
In addition to a hiatus in warming, we are seeing the largest ice area in the Antarctic since satellite measurements started, and the Arctic ice cap is currently increasing at a very rapid rate.
The Soviet Union suppressed scientific openness, and suffered the consequences. Let's hope that we do not follow suit.
William Yurth, Boulder
This letter was published in the Oct. 27 edition.
Even the most lenient opinion page would be unlikely to print a letter on a medical topic from an advocate of the medieval theory of "humours," and media outlets don't feel obliged to allot space to arguments for such regressive or unscientific viewpoints as geocentric cosmology, a flat Earth, or the moral acceptability of slavery.
It's in this context the the Los Angeles Times' recent decision to reject letters denying the reality of anthropogenic global warming must be understood. While climatologists disagree about particular climate-forcing mechanisms or the relative severity of specific effects, there's no longer any scientific argument about the human causes of climate change. Outlying views will always exist, but this is no reason to treat single dissenters as worthy of equivalent airtime or column inches — especially since, in media handling of climate issues, these contrarian opinions invariably come from the same individuals.
Warren Senders, Medford, Mass.
This letter was published in the Oct. 27 edition.
Vincent Carroll apparently believes that something accepted by 95 percent of the world's legitimate climate scientists is not only still unsettled science, but writes that climate skeptics believe that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change "has demonstrated consistent bias in favor of alarmist interpretations." He believes the IPCC's findings should be balanced with the blogs of a debunked outlying climatologist, or the opinions of conservative mouthpiece Charles Krauthammer.
This speaks more to the problems of mainstream journalism than to those of the Los Angeles Times, which has decided to no longer promote climate change denial. Blind adherence to balance and presenting the "back and forth" not only provides cover to those seeking to propagate a delusional position for economic gain, but it creates the kind of false equivalencies that have resulted in a confused and muddled electorate.
The Los Angeles Times is to be commended for placing accurate reporting above pandering.

The end of one labor crisis at the nation's busiest port complex could be a prelude to another.
The resolution of an eight-day walkout by clerical workers at the Los Angeles and Long Beach harbors that stalled billions of dollars of cargo and left container ships stranded off the California coast points to the stakes for upcoming contract talks with dockworkers at western U.S. shipping terminals.
The clerical workers represent a sliver of the membership of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, whose 24,000 dockworkers handle everything from car parts to computers at ports in Washington, Oregon, California and Hawaii. The strikers numbered only about 450, but thousands of dockworkers refused to cross the picket lines and halted work at the sister ports that handle 44 percent of all container traffic that arrives in the U.S. by sea.
"There is a linkage between the two," said Gary Chaison, professor of labor relations at Clark University in Worcester, Mass. The walkout in Southern California "increased the possibility, the probability, of a strike" when the dockworker contract is negotiated in 2014.
Clerical workers walked out Nov. 27 after working without a contract for 30 months.
The strike at the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports came at a time of widespread labor strife around the nation, with public- and private-sector workers facing pressure on wages, benefits and job security as employers look to curb costs.
Earlier this year in Oregon, a federal judge ordered longshore workers to end an illegal slowdown that disrupted shipping at the Port of Portland, and dockworkers on the East Coast this year have fought overtime rules and royalty payments to longshore workers.
But take-home pay was not a central issue with the well-paid clerical workers; the union was worried about jobs literally vanishing – outsourced to China, Arizona or elsewhere.
"It's not so much about the money, it's not so much about the hours, it's about watching out for efforts by employers to undermine the future viability of the union," said international trade economist Jock O'Connell.
"For the unions, this was an existential crisis. For the employers, it was business," O'Connell said.
Similar issues are likely to color the dockworkers' talks, as workers see their jobs potentially threatened by automation and competition for shippers after the Panama Canal expansion is completed.
"The union knows this: The industry is ready to go to Mexico or Canada," said Port of Long Beach spokesman Art Wong. In 2014, "hopefully they won't repeat what we've seen here" with the clerical workers.
After the eight-day strike – which stranded $760 million worth of cargo a day and sent some 20 ships to other ports in California and Mexico – "both sides will see how much damage there can be if one side walked out or one side locks out," Wong said.
California has a long history involving dock labor strife – a strike in the 1930s led to the unionization of ports across the West. The western dockworkers reached their last deal with shipping companies and terminal operators in 2008, when both sides were worried that a strike or lockout could further damage the U.S. economy. A 10-day lockout in 2002 caused an estimated $15 billion in economic losses.
With anxiety over a dwindling middle class, and with unions emboldened by the re-election of President Barack Obama, "There is an increasing amount of pushback now," O'Connell said.
The clerks returned to work Wednesday, jubilant that the strike that shut down 10 of the 14 terminals at the ports earned them guarantees, at least for now, that their jobs won't be shipped somewhere else where labor costs are cheaper. They extracted promises from management that, as workers retire or leave the ports during the next four years, no more than 14 jobs will be outsourced, union officials said.
"The key issue in this whole strike was the outsourcing of good jobs, and they won protections against outsourcing abuses," said union spokesman Craig Merrilees.
Shippers denied outsourcing jobs, but strikers insisted they had proof. Trinnie Thompson, a union shop steward, said workers have seen invoices and emails showing some of their responsibilities being usurped by workers in Costa Rica, Shanghai, Colorado and Arizona.
The clerks handle such tasks as filing invoices and billing notices, arranging dock visits by customs inspectors and ensuring that cargo moves off the dock quickly and gets where it's supposed to go. The increasing computerization of such tasks, which allows them to be performed in cities far from the ocean, makes the clerks especially vulnerable, labor experts say.
The clerks make average salaries of $41 an hour, or about $87,000 a year. They also receive generous pensions and 11 weeks of vacation a year. Their health insurance is fully paid and includes zero doctor co-pays, giving them among the best salary and benefits packages of any blue-collar workers.
The deal, reached late Tuesday night, must be ratified by union membership.
After the canal is completed, western dockworkers could see competition from the East Coast, too – in Charleston, S.C., for example, maritime interests want the harbor channel deepened to 50 feet so the Port of Charleston can handle the larger container ships expected to call when the expanded canal opens.
Stephen Berry, lead negotiator for the Los Angeles/Long Beach Harbor Employers Association, said the dispute with the clerical workers is inevitably connected to the coming talks with the dockworkers.
"These are the same employers that are at that table," he said, noting that they resisted union demands for more than two years to "achieve reasonable and fair objectives."
That "says a lot about what's going on on the East Coast right now and what will come back to the West Coast in 2014," he said.
Merrilees, the union spokesman, said the outcome of the clerical strike was encouraging for the dockworkers.
Associated Press writer John Rogers contributed to this report.

President Barack Obama well recognizes the power of books, having written two bestsellers of his own.
Now a new crop of writers that includes veteran "Watergate" newshound Bob Woodward will have a shot at the Barack Obama story.
Woodward, Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter, New Yorker correspondent Ryan Lizza and four others are set to author tomes on the president's young administration, TNR.com reported.
If history is any guide, some of the diggers are bound to hit pay dirt.
Woodward and partner Carl Bernstein brought down Richard Nixon's presidency by exposing the cover-up of his reelection team's politically motivated break-in of Democratic Party offices in a series of stories for the Washington Post. Those stories became the basis for the book and film "All the President's Men."
Woodward went on to write unflattering histories of the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies.
"If you want to hide things from Bob, it always comes out. It always does," one of his friends told TNR.
The White House has already sent out a memo to staff that requires permission before speaking to Woodward and other authors, according to TNR.
Too bad for Obama's message machine -- gossip still runs through the water in Washington.

MGHfC and MEEI help save Haitian child with eye cancer
A caring team: Front row, from left, Coleman; Widerson; and Chacilia Richalien, Widerson's aunt. Back row, from left, Mukai; Grabowski; and Edaniel Beauplant, MGH Haitian-Creole medical interpreter
The efforts of three doctors at three separate institutions came together to forever change the life of one little boy living in a remote village in Haiti. Thanks to the dedication of a doctor in Maine and treatments from caregivers at MassGeneral Hospital for Children (MGHfC) and the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary (MEEI), 3-year-old Widerson Mompremier has been given a second chance at life.
Widerson's journey began this past winter when his family brought him to a medical clinic in their village of Soufriere shortly after the January earthquake. Widerson had become blind in his right eye, and his family asked the medical staff for help. When Laurel Coleman, MD, a geriatric specialist at Maine Medical Center who was volunteering in Haiti at the time, saw the little boy, she immediately recognized that he needed advanced care. So she put him on her back and carried him five miles to the closest town to see an ophthalmologist, who confirmed her fear. Widerson had retinoblastoma, a type of eye cancer, and needed treatment to survive.
Back in Maine, Coleman successfully lobbied to bring Widerson to the United States for care, despite his lack of a passport. Eric Grabowski, MD, DSci, a pediatric hematologist-oncologist at MGHfC, and Shizuo Mukai, MD, a surgeon at MEEI, both specialists in retinoblastoma, became involved in Widerson's treatment shortly after he arrived.
"When we first saw Widerson we were very concerned," says Grabowski. "There was a high risk that the tumor had metastasized. In many undeveloped countries, this disease is fatal."
Widerson first had surgery to remove his cancerous right eye and received a prosthetic replacement. He then underwent four rounds of chemotherapy. In August, under the care of Shannon MacDonald, MD, of MGH Radiation Oncology, he will start proton therapy to target the area where some tumor cells were found. With these treatments, the doctors are confident Widerson will go on to lead a full and healthy life.
"Widerson's a very special boy. He's brave, courageous and full of charm," says Grabowski. "He is doing very well with lots of support and love from his family and the social workers and staff at the MGH and Mass Eye and Ear."
After his treatment, Widerson will go back to Haiti to live with his family, but he will remain in the hearts of his team of U.S. caregivers.

The story of this food is as long and as varied as the people involved, of which there are many. We learned how to make this distinct crust and many of other recipes from Mike Freeman while working at the then hole-in-a-wall Zelo, estd. 2000 in Los Angeles. He had spent years in the kitchen of Vicolo, estd. 1985 in San Francisco, under the leadership of Patricia Unterman. Mike generously taught us all that he knew about pizza, and graciously assisted us in taking it up the coast to Portland, where we chose to start a family and our family business. We have pride in our lineage, of staying true to the original recipes, our quality of ingredients, and passion to continually evolve and improve.
Our crust is prepared by hand using organic cornmeal sourced from Southeast Oregon and Northeast California that is stone ground at Bob's Red Mill here in Portland. We also use sustainably grown Shepherd's Grain flour, a progressive alliance of family farms local to the Northwest, and 100% pure olive oil. All toppings are prepared in-house daily using fresh, locally sourced produce whenever possible. Dressings, marinades, and brines are made from scratch to celebrate the loot of our locale.
Our sausage is made from all natural Carlton Farms pork, located in Carlton, Oregon. We cure our own pancetta, Tasso ham, Canadian bacon, maple bacon, and corned beef, and case our andouille, chorizo, bratwurst and chicken sausages to ensure quality and distinction.
We thank the many folks who have contributed to developing Dove's style. If you are interested in learning more about who is behind our tee shirts, magnets, boxes, and often our chalk board, check out our links to the artists' information.
Please don't hesitate to call if you have any further questions!

About This Site
Tanis Miller started blogging February 2006, four months after the sudden death of her youngest son, Shale. After googling the words 'mom' and 'grief', Tanis stumbled onto the world of blogging and it wasn't long before she decided to make the leap from lurker to author.
For seven years Tanis could be found blogging at Attack of the Redneck Mommy. Her blog was a humorous and insightful look at the joys of parenting, the delights of marriage and the heartbreak of losing a child. Her blog has been featured on CNN, The Globe and Mail and in a variety of Canadian daily newspapers. Attack of the Redneck Mommy™ has repeatedly been named as one of Babble's top mom blogs and has won the Best Canadian Blog award in the 2011, 2010 and 2008 Bloggies, earning her a spot in the Bloggie Hall of Fame.
Tanis continues to spread her brand of humour and honesty here on Tanis Miller only this time she isn't pretending to be 50 feet tall while doing it.
On the Subject of Me
Tanis Miller always wanted to be a prom queen.
That didn't work out for her for a variety of reasons, such as the fact she's Canadian and they don't have proms up in the frozen tundra, they have grads. There may have also been a small issue of living the entirety of her high school years in the isolated industrial wing of a huge urban high school where she walked around in her slippers while carrying around a notebook and refusing to make eye contact with the general student body. The only people who knew she existed were the ones who mocked her slippers and the stoners who tried to steal them.
Since high school was a complete and utter bust, Tanis soothed her ravaged self esteem in the back seat of a farm boy's car, only to learn soon after what the definition of a shot gun wedding really is. Tanis likes to take pride in the fact that while she may have walked down the aisle pregnant and tugging another child behind her in a wagon, at least she can proudly say her children all have the same baby daddy.
Once Tanis conquered the world of child rearing and marriage she moved on to tackle her post secondary education where she accrued some fancy papers with her name on them and a really big student loan bill. That fancy education couldn't land her a job if her life depended on it but did prepare her for real life and the birth of her third child, who was born severely disabled.
Tanis is now a fierce advocate for children with disabilities and has no problem standing in front of 1500 people and lecturing them not to use the R-word.
Life later kicked Tanis (and her entire family) in the arse when her son died but since then they have adjusted to the mantle of grief they all wear and have moved on to adopt a special little boy after what had to be the world's worst longest adoption attempt ever.
Nowadays, Tanis lives with her family on an acreage in the middle of Nowhereville, Alberta, Canada and spends her time trying to remember that one joy really can scatter a hundred griefs.
Tanis not only spends her time wishing she was Erma Bombeck here on this blog, but she also occasionally appears on television and on the radio where she spends an embarrassing amount of time going "Ummm." Her husband couldn't be more proud of her.
For a full list of press, media mentions and awards accrued over the years, click here.

Is there anybody out there?
Can anybody hear me?
Can you tell me where it hurts?
We need some information...first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts?
Okay, enough bad Pink FLoyd references. I tried to draw a comic today, but it turned out so horrible I threw it away. If anyone has any bright ideas please throw them my way.
Peace out.

A strong sense of style, creative ideas and resourcefulness help both professional and home decorators bring together the best contemporary furnishings and collectible finds to create home design that's truly unique. To do that, they often shop in a variety of venues, from upscale shops to antique marts.
Quality Matters
Good quality fabrics and furniture with classic lines will last for many years so designers in the know often start by investing most of their decorating dollars in the things that will be around the longest. Family keepsakes and accessories that are well-loved will usually work surprisingly well with both traditional and contemporary pieces as long as there's balance in the overall look.
One example is to find a flea market bench, side chair or sofa and give it new life by reupholstering it in a high-quality material. Or do the opposite - take an upscale sofa and accessorize it with inexpensive pillows. They can be changed according to season.
In the same way, an inexpensive coffee or end table will look elegant with the right choice of coffee table books or a striking sculpture. A well-used lamp can be given new style with a fresh coat of paint on the base and a new lampshade.
House-Wide Decorating Plan
Beautiful rooms don't have to be limited to areas that visitors see most. Rooms beyond the kitchen and living room deserve the same treatment, both in style and functional convenience. Radiant heating, for instance, is a welcome addition to any room for its ease of use and energy efficiency. Having infloor heating ensures even distribution of warmth without installing duct systems.
Just because a particular space has a utilitarian purpose shouldn't be a reason to leave it off the decorating to-do list. In a home office, a desk with simple, contemporary lines from a discount store may be offset by a classy hardwood or fabric-covered chair that's comfortable and offers good support. Quality hardware for drawer pulls and knobs can give office storage units a high-class look as well.
Natural Focal Point
In any room design, window treatments can become focal points that tie into the furniture and color scheme around them. Valances may be of wood similar to the flooring, upholstered to go with other soft furnishings or decorated as an accent to the rest of the room. A valance can also be mounted over window shades, blinds or curtains that homeowners choose based on their style or privacy needs.

My budget is around 1800. I already bought 13'' macbook pro 2011 from microcenter for 1093 (including tax). This was my first macbook and I'm impressed, but only downsize of it is that 13'' seems a little bit small for me. Since I have been using 15.4 windows laptop for 6 years now, I have to decide.
- Upgrade 13'' to 15''. I need to pay around $830 more.
- By a dell xps 15 around $600.
- buy a new monitor since I use my laptop at home
What do you guys think? I know :) this is an apple forum and I can only decide this question, but I just wanted to ask!

"The February 1993 blast in the basement of the World Trade Center
killed 6 people, injured 1,000 others, displaced 50,000 workers, and
threw 900 Vista Hotel and Windows on the World employees out of
work, but it also provided a modest boost for the regional economy. [!!!]
This, at any rate, was the conclusion the Port Authority came to in an
April 1993 report released six weeks after the bombing."
"It felt like an airplane hit the building," said Bruce Pomper, a 34-year-old broker.

I particularly enjoyed how, at the end of the "documentary", they tied each heroic participant from their 1993 story into a cool "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" title card. It reminded me of the end of that Van Halen video, "Hot for Teacher".
