Celebrating 25 Years
Thank you to the wonderful clients and communities that have given us the opportunity to help them succeed
The world has changed a lot since 1993…
In 1993, the price of the average house in Canada was just shy of $150,000 while today that same house will cost you $487,000. Walmart was not in Canada. Sears was Canada's largest retail chain with sales of $3.96 billion. A Canadian team (Montreal) won the Stanley Cup. Kim Campbell was the Prime Minister and Bill Clinton was the American President. PMG was a small Canadian company working out of a 200 ft2 office and today is one of the most respected research companies in Canada.
Though it sounds somewhat self-congratulatory to talk about our 25th anniversary of starting the business, it's really more about experience and expertise. Our inspiration in research and technology innovation is an outcome of the opportunities afforded to us by so many wonderful organizations.
To our clients, partners, colleagues, and friends, we are excited at what the next 25 years brings both our team and yours. To show our thanks for your support, in December 2018, PMG will be making a donation on your behalf to support our youth and help causes in need.
Thank you for putting your trust in us and giving us the opportunity to learn and further grow our craft.

So what exactly can I do in my garden?
There are many different styles and themes that can be used in the design of a garden. It is important to discover how you can express your personality outdoors, as we recommend that your garden, home and you reflect your individual style.
After that, you can make decisions about how to partition your garden and (if any) terrace and start thinking about what kind of materials to use. Also give up to what you will prioritize.
Do you want a garden that weighs plants or do you like a small pond more? Perhaps a small playground for your children is a must for you. Functionality is as important as appearance. So, consider how your garden forms a whole.
Of course, it is always a good idea to seek help from a garden expert to avoid any confusion, worse disaster. But the more you think about garden inspiration and the clearer your mind, the better the result you will get with your specialist.

A function that gives surface area is one of the basic funcationals and it is expressed as:(1)
where $a$ is the area, $\int_a$ represents an integration over the surface domain and $da$ is an area element.
While this expression is easy to understand, we cannot perform anything with it unless we know the detailed expression of $da$.
Hence, we want to rewrite it as
and identify the concrete expression of $f(\theta^1,\theta^2)$.
Consequently, we obtain
where $g_{ij}$ is a metric.
This has been historically expressed as
If we suppose that $g_{ij}$ represents a matrix as well as representing its components, i.e.,(5)
we can write(6)
The variation of the surface area can be written as(7)
Thus, we calculate the variation of $f$.(8)
Thus, we calculate the variation of $\mathrm{det}g_{ij}$.
This calculation is extremely complicated but it is like as follows:
Here, $\hat{\cdot}$ on $\hat{g}^{jk}$ means that $g^{jk}$ does not subject variation.
The calculation continues as follows:
As the result, we obtain(13)
This is dimension-free expression so it can be easily generalized to an arbitrary dimension.
Additionally, in general, the relation
is a relation that is frequently used in relativity.
Here, because we have
we obtain(17)

Exclusive! New Cam'ron and Mase: "Get It" (feat. B. Rossi)Posted by Miss Info under Crony-ism , Exclusives , Good For Hip Hop , Good For Me , New Music , Relationships and Family
[84] Comments
What a pleasant surprise!
Cam'ron is out in Chicago but he hit me tonite with this new song that him and Mase recently recorded, called "Get It," featuring Mase's new artist Da Kid Rossy [correction: B.Rossi].
(Download link: Cam'ron and Ma$e "Get It" featuring B.Rossi)
Despite the public perception that Ma$e and Cam are sworn enemies….these two childhood friends actually mended fences a while ago. They went from basketball teammates… to Harlem besties… to letting the industry divide them…to that infamous spat between Ma$e and Jimmy on Cam's behalf (I was sitting there next to Ma$e that crazy morning)…to squashing their beef….to playing ball last summer….to reuniting for this 2009 duet.
time heals : )
(vintage flick of Cam'ron, Mase, and Big Un….lol, I'm thinking this was before Un pulled a toolie out that night at Justin's : )

Well that made my night. Mase's energy is different – he sounds fresh, unlike his second go-round with Bad Boy or the joke that was his G-Unit affiliation. Could the song be better? Sure, but I'll certainly take it!

I always considered Ma$e a top rapper but what I can't get over is how he was just recently preaching God's word with a weird southern twang of an accent and how he can go from that back to this and not have his "congregation" (or anyone else) raise some eyebrows. I'm glad Ma$e and Cam are back reunited but to me that's besides the point. How can anyone take Ma$e seriously until he addresses that? And I used to be Ma$e's biggest fan!
south boy Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 8:23 am
Interesting.I think Mase and Fifth are still cool,he extended
An invitation to his cookout/outting so maybe he will show
Up..well maybe jimmy but I think juelz won't come..the
Thought of seeing dipset/g-unit/dblock all at one event..and
No beef…that would be dope and I'm from the south…
TDot Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 8:56 am
Does any one remember that this hypocrite Mase is supposedly a born again Christian? What's he doing cursing on a record? What's he doing rapping period?
He's just in it for a payday.. I know.. Who isn't? I just think that as a preacher he has a greater responsibility to protect his supposedly righteous image.
So when he makes a few bucks he'll go back to preaching.. How can anyone respect that?
Check this video..

As for Mase reactions they're just nostalgia. he's doing nothing incredible. Not to discredit or anything but it's cool stuff nothing i think that's gonna put him on top.
I mean you think God really gonna a let a pastor come and blow in the rap game? Well, i guess the devil will.
Not sure if Mase "welcomed back" again.
pmac Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 11:31 am
damn i would never make a rb song with a dude who got picking up a tranny, bad for every ones look. people forgot about mase and the boys in the night already?

July 11th, 2009 at 12:04 pm
I find it disgusting that this nigga mase still has a church even through all his coming back to the secular world of bad boy and g-unit and going back to his church. 10%er to the core. i wish my people weren't so blind. i don't even fuck with church and this is a great example as to why. that shit is phoney. so is ma$e misleading our people, emulating one of the worst niggas ever creflo dollar. fuck him.
peezee Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 12:23 pm
is this a pump fake or is mase gonna spend some time in the studio and flood the streets with new tracks and maybe a mixtape? we'll see
Big Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Actually. This is how mase should have come back the first time instead of doing the G-Unit thing.. This just makes sense!! This is that true Harlem swagger here now if they can get Loon and Young Santana back on board which might never happen they might have a second coming of a Harlem movement.. But Cam did a good thing here.. very well played!! Dipset without the bums and then add vintage Mase scary!

ohhh, lol, I thought you meant when Jim Jones and Mase were on the radio a few weeks ago….
Yes, when that ugly convo btw Jim and Mase happened, I was one of the hosts on the morning show….and Mase was the guest….then I started getting phonecalls from Cam and Jimmy….and then Jimmy called in the warm line. It was nuts.

mase is ill he can do what he wants. All these ppl crying about mase rapping and going to church are hypocrites cuz a lot of the rappers do it as well as singers (beyonce) stfu. If his congregation doesn't got a problem with it why should you? and for the record the crucified 4 da hood mixtape mase put on G-unit was fire…and even on that he didn't curse on it and if he did it was sensored out. Now enjoy this cam mase collab its been a long time coming.
snitchkilla Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Just cause you into church, don't mean u perfect. Shit, they got gospel rap that you can't even tell its gospel until the last verse. I mean straight gutta beats. Niggas go to church every Sunday.lol….
I'm like this, man. I don't give a damn about these rappers personal life. As long as the music and lyrics are hot, than I'ma bump it. If you looking for a rapper to be your savior, or looking up to their lyrics for guidance, than you lost beyond help.
Respect the art, fuck the artist…
snitchkilla Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 3:43 pm
You aint gotta have beef with a nigga forever. Them niggas was real friends back in the day. They beef started over a situation of mixing (or should I say misinterpreting) friendship and business, really on Killa's part. Cam thought Mase shouldn't charge him to be in the video cause they was friends. Now that Cam knows a lot more about the business side, he sees that business is business always. So if Killa wanna squash it, then its his error to squash. How you, as the fan, gonna be madder than the niggas actually involved in it?
Niggas is funny. When he wanted to preach, Niggas was like "how he gonna preach, he a rapper?" Now if he wanna rap,"he a preacher". Make up your mind. Or is it that you not gonna like a nigga no matter what he do, so he might as well do him, and not worry about what people think? I would do the latter. Everybody who judging is just as sinful or worse, and they ain't even take the time out of they sinning to try to at least help stop others from doing it. SMH
Respect the art, fuck the artist…
snitchkilla Says:
July 11th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
Why people be so interested in rappers personal life? They be buying into these beefs and disses. I don't care one bit. If its a hot track, its a hot track. If I see a star in the club, I don't care. I just wanna hear music. Stop idolizing these entertainers. They humans just like you. They just have an outlet for their thoughts.
Sometimes friends beef. Its like this, Jimmy was beefing with Mase on behalf of Cam. Jimmy and Cam ain't cool right now, so why carry on a beef with Mase? It wasn't his actual beef anyway. So they peace it up. Cam realize that his beef is old and really ain't over nothing but money, so he peace it up too with Mase. All them niggas was real close back in the day, so I don't have no issue with them squashing they beef. Sometimes friends beef and disagree, then they peace it up when they get over it. They ain't gotta beef forever. Like 50 and Cam beef. Really, that's nothing, cause Killa was beefing on behalf of Jimmy. But why carry on a beef with a nigga if you gonna go onstage with a nigga right after he dissed you on radio? So why try and make it a hot summer? So he just let the shit die out. It be these sensitive rapper-worshiping fans that wanna keep shit going….
Respect the art, fuck the artists…..

Mase can do whatever he wants. Everybody is out here doing dirt but at least he has a religious side to him,
Question to those judging him, is, when was the last time you went to church just to pray?
Thought so!
The track is fire!

everyone bringing up the mans's past…i forgot he was a pastor. oh well he's no different than every other hypocrite walking the earth.
Coolin Says:

bc-tw Says:
July 12th, 2009 at 6:00 am
Hey snitchkilla. Can I call you snitchkilla? No one is looking for rappers to be their saviors, but what's wrong with a little consistency? Ma$e went from talking about how Jesus saves to talking about blasting techs when he got down with 50. Kind of disingenuous, no? By the way, I'm all for the music and lyrics being hot too but in this case the music on this track was wack and the lyrics were only decent. The jury is still out until Ma$e's next "contribution".
bc-tw Says:
July 12th, 2009 at 6:05 am
But it's not a hot track. It's a garbage beat. This much is consensus. If you like this beat go cop Nelly's Brass Knuckles album — you'll love that!

I ain't even feeling this joint. I just dont't see why niggas is going into all these other issues. If a cat say it ain't hot, I ain't got no problem with that. I'm talking about the folks that's mad cause they back cool again, or they did a song together. Just judge the song and stay out of niggas personal life. If you don't like the song, that's wassup, cause I don't like it either.

Beat was trash. Cam was good. Mase not so much. Didn't liisten to the last verse. Only problem I got with mase is how u gonna rap about murder and dumpin clips, when you are a pastor. I don't care about this mans personal life in the slightest of ways, but that is just wrong man. But that's just me. Good to see him and Cam patch things up if they did. I been a fan of Cam since 97′ and Mase was always ok on the mic.
Blackalina Says:
July 13th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
Your Girl from North north baby, from Real city (MTL) 514
Let me explane you what this "Florida Law Enforcement State Officer" did.
Since january 2009, relevant information was spreading the FACT "Rick Ross aka Officer Ricky" was a Correctional Officer.
Ross understood 1 thing, and this 1 thing was; [I'm so finish, how will I succeed in this game if people finally believe my true Pass]!
– Ricky, In are society you have a wide selection of hundreds of different Jobs to choose, hundreds…
But between all those Jobs, you choose ONE, and it's working for the LAW ENFORCEMENT TEAM…
Ok ok, you're Sister is a CO, you're a CO and your Mama's too; Means you lived in it, you sleeped in it, you "Soul junk food" in it, your DNA was pre-coded in it.
Also, Officer Ricky had a "Perfect Attendance"; Wow!
*For those who don't know, "Perfect Attendance" means; [if I can't get signed by any label, I'll still have good chances to come back to my Officers task].
Logically, when you like what you're doing, you become good at it, so finally "Perfect Attendance" simple description means; [I want to progress in it, I LOVE my Job]..
Anyway, lets comeback to the main point, which is what Officer Ricky did, to attempt to maintain his fraudulent Gangsta image, after his true identity got revealed.
He decided to work on the low, like a traitor he was preparing a beef with 50, while Rat Joe was left alone to battle against 50 Cent Serious Front Line.
Once Fat Hoe went BROKE, "Officer Ricky" finally completed his "Deeper than Crap" album, but was still not Beefing with 50; HOW'S THAT?…
Because Rick Ross timming plan to beef with 50, was setup to start only AFTER completing his diss tracks.
Understand the ART of Cheating; means you can't win face to face or equal to equal; you have to keep up your lies, means you CAN'T BE LOYAL AT ALL, you can't be respected unless you act fake. {Pure Officer Ricky}..
All Ricky Ross diss track were prepared before creating his Beef; Means he planified to "Fade-Off" his Correctional Officer story, by emplifying the mediatized concept he was Beefing agains the "Strongest Battle Rappers Alive" 50 cents…
By Bluffing the Hip Hop scene about his capacity to maintain battle with Fiddy, the idea was to make people confuse about what's Real (CO) and what's fake (fearless gangsta)… {William Leonard Roberts is a Strong Liar}..
First, he started by lying about: [I was going to step to 50 but by the look on his face I decided to give him a pass]…
*50 Cent couldn't consider Rick Ross, he Was and Still Is Un-important…
But Officer Ricky attacked 50's son alongside with Retarded Khaled; and Rapidly launch out his well-prepared song tracks…
*But 50 saw Officer Ricky quickly and clearly; Reason why 50 was so un-predictable in his way to dominate Officer Ricky…
Now! Ricky lost it, in many various ways;
Rickys' poor album sales; Lifetime break up between him and his own Son; The Pimpin of Ricky Ross baby M*** by Booboo, and more…
Every aspect of Rick Ross are based on lies.
So Who is Rick Ross?:
A) A Correctional Officer who hates Gangsters
B) A fake Gangster Officer
C) A Gangster Police
D) A Police Gangster
E) A cheater
F) A liar
G) A monkey
H) All the answers Above, the Biggest fraud that we've seen thus Far…
Anyway Rick Ross got the Correctional Officer blood strong in him; WHY?
– As black folks, would you call yourself Monkey?: {NO}
– Would you call your Sister or your Brother Monkey?: {NO}
– Would you let a caucasian call you Monkey?: {NO}
*It's straight Black on Black stupid Racism, Only Dumb-ass impotent "COs" could say such imbecile terms against his own race…
*Evidence: Rick Ross is not real, but his true self "Officer Ricky" is a real "Florida Law Enforcement State Officer".
Banish Officer Ricky!

In case you haven't noticed, this star of the upcoming Adam Sandler-Tea Leoni feature "Spanglish" has somehow stolen Penelope Cruz's DNA. Look at her. She looks just like Penelope Cruz. Return Penelope's DNA, Paz, and peel back your Penelope face to reveal your real face in the manner of a Scooby Doo villain, please. We don't really need another Penelope. We still have the first and she is enough, I guess. But at least Paz' voice doesn't cut through my brain like some kind of frisbee-tossed saw blade.
My worries do not stop with Paz, however. No, she represents a disturbing trend that I've noticed among celebrities in the past few years — and I'm not bitching about their kids' names this time.
- Monica Potter so clearly has stolen Julia Robert's DNA, spliced with blonde genes.
- I've long suspected that Leelee Sobieski is the result from some cloning experiment with Helen Hunt's bodily leavings.
- And I swear I can't tell the difference between Marley Shelton and Kate Bosworth.
- Remember Skeet Ulrich? Remember how he looked just like Johnny Depp? Remember how his role in "Scream" was eerily like Johnny Depp's debut in "A Nightmare on Elm Street"? Remember how Wes Craven directed both? Clearly, a case of DNA-thievery.

Why you must see me
Family Justice Young People's Board
At the Family Justice Young People's Board (FJYPB) we have identified the lack of getting to know a child or young person, and understanding their diversity, as a key issue in family justice. For example, someone might assume that brothers and sisters have the same wishes or feelings. Or they might think that a child will have the same interests and personality years after they have met them.
The importance of not making such assumptions was highlighted at our annual conference. A game, called 'Do you see me?', presented pictures of a child or young person many years ago, and captioned it with the features that people see on the first couple of meetings – for example their skin colour, hair colour, and height. We then followed this up with a more recent picture of them, captioned with other features that a professional may not see, but which make the child or young person who they are – like their future career aspirations or their music taste.
Another game used at the conference, 'Perceptions', accentuated how uncomfortable it may feel for a child to open up and talk about themselves to an adult they have never met before, in a sometimes alien environment.
During the game, the professionals were asked personal questions that children and young people are often asked during proceedings, in front of the whole audience. For example, their sexuality or whether they considered themselves to have a disability.
These two games emphasised how children during separation might not be seen as people with diverse wants, needs, feelings and personalities, and how this can lead to the young person feeling invisible or misunderstood.
Here at the FJYPB we believe that children should be at the centre of all proceedings, that they should be understood, as shown in our national charter. Importantly, they must feel like they are understood. Points 3 and 4 of the charter outline how children should be treated as individuals and how practitioners should have sufficient time to build a relationship with the professionals involved in our case.
If professionals make a concerted effort to understand and get to know children and young people, it makes them feel like their voices have been heard during decisions. This will have a positive short term impact but it can also change their lives and future relationships forever.
Please note that our blogs provide individual views on a subject and are not intended as guidance for practitioners.

PRINCE GEORGE � Within the last 24 hours, it�s been quite a wild ride for both the Colonial Heights and Prince George softball teams.
PRINCE GEORGE � Within the last 24 hours, it�s been quite a wild ride for both the Colonial Heights and Prince George softball teams.
Both had to face two of the other top Central District teams the night before, Thomas Dale and Matoaca.
On Thursday evening, the stakes were risen even higher as the Colonials just came off a huge win over the Warriors as the Royals fell to the Knights.
Which team would prevail?
For six straight innings, one couldn�t have asked for a better game. Both Royals pitcher Lauren Vinson and Colonials pitcher Savannah Phillingane gave it all they got using speed, high velocity and patience on the mound.
Both were challenged and both prevailed, however, one had to lose. Between the two there were 18 strikeouts.
But similar to the games that were played the night before, one bad break, would seal the victory.
Prince George edged Colonial Heights 1-0 on Thursday picking up its sixth win in the district and a tie for first place.
�Colonial Heights has improved its game for the past few years. They are pulling up the right players to make a move,� said Prince George coach Pat Waguespack said. �Their pitching has stepped up big and they force you to come to work. They know how to move the ball around.�
However, despite the 1-0 loss, the Colonials outhit the Royals by far.
Reannen Stephenson and Kari Toombs both laid down beautiful bunts to get on base.
Then in the fourth inning, Phillingane ripped a ball to past first base to squeeze out a hit. Later Lauren Miller drilled a ball past second base to put runners on first and second but a fly ball ended the inning.
�I try to tell the girls that it�s going to be a battle every night. We were a little tired, but each one has to keep their head up and come ready to play,� Waguespack said. �We knew Colonial Heights was going to be a fight, but that�s when you hope that the girls that you put out will hang tough and get the job done.�
Prince George tried to get a rhythm going in the bottom of the fourth. Maggie Roberts blasted a triple to deep center putting her in scoring position, but Aiden O�Hare�s fly foul ball to the right field fence was caught by the Colonials� Rachel Barefoot to end the inning.
Colonial Heights tested the waters again in the fifth with a base hit to left field by Autumn Musselwhite and then in the sixth when Caitlin Underhill and Phillingane got back-to-back singles.
But that wasn�t enough as the game-winning run was brought in off a wild pitch off of home plate that allowed the Royals� Katie Christopher to score.
Christopher led off the inning with a single to right field, but there was an error on the throw to the right field to first base allowing her to run to second base.
�We just have to start hitting at the right time and try not to panic in the offensive department,� Waguespack said. �We haven�t reached our peak yet.�
�Court Wills can be reached at email@example.com.
Colonial Heights 000 000 0 - 0 8 2
Prince George 000 010 - 1 2 1

I've loved to do many things and writing has always been more than a desire…but a need. Lately, I've been able to fill that need and now I can't get enough. I'm not the best writer – but I have some good ideas and a willingness to improve on my writing. Thanks for stopping by.
Major Biology and Minor in French – Metro State College, Colorado
Master's of Physician Assistant Studies – A.T. Still University [aka. Arizona School of Health Sciences], Arizona
Logan began his college studies in Business as does a large number of students unsure exactly what to study. After a few years enjoying writing business plans and even starting his own business, he wanted something more challenging. Subsequently, he changed to Biology and began to study pre-med classes – moving in the direction of the medical field. Logan worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant in several nursing homes.
He moved to Colorado to continue school and upon graduation was accepted to A.T Still University in Arizona into the Physician Assistant Master's Program. He graduated from PA school with a Masters in 2007. He moved to Utah during the last few months of school as part of his rotations. He was hired by the Utah State Prison as a Physician Assistant and has worked full-time since the end of 2007. His job is one of the most challenging that he has ever had. He receives very little appreciation for his work but his own personal satisfaction is immeasurable.
Logan started a medical website called InterActive Health and blog to allow himself a chance to write and keep current on medical topics. He believes that often patients know only the bare minimum about their own health care and Logan has a desire to increase the interaction with patients and their medical care. Logan continues to work on that website weekly.
The writing bug continued to fester and Logan came up with an idea that he wanted to turn into a book. He had been thinking about pieces of the book for the last few years. Finally over a year ago, the book pieces fell into a more manageable place. The insight and connections were amazing. It fit together so well that Logan felt that he had no other choice than to begin working on the book. It is the name for this blog.
Personal Life
Logan has been married for 9 years now. It has been amazingly fun and entertaining. Some days can be difficult but Lauren has been a great support for Logan in the many adventures they have been together.
Logan has two children: Kayla and Landon, who are both adorable and amazing. They feed of each other which can be both a blessing and a curse.
Logan loves to travel and plans on returning to France and Switzerland as often as possible. Plus a few new places would be just as amazing.
He grew up in Littleton, Colorado and went to High School in Castle Rock at Douglas County High School. Logan loves the diversity of life and the many possibilities that it offers. Logan played Football and Baseball during high school and tried acting and singing is a few school performances.
Logan has a love of Christ and has searched to find him, it has been an interesting adventure. Logan joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints when he was 18. A year later he served a mission in Switzerland, Geneva. A large portion of his time was spent serving in France. Logan tried to learn French in high school but failed miserably. He did however have the opportunity to travel to Paris, France in High School and loved every moment of it. Logan however, did not fully learn french until his mission. It took some really difficult months but he finally learned to communicate.
Logan returned from his mission and moved to Orem, Utah for college at Utah Valley State College. Logan moved along with his best friend Paul [who had already been living there for 6 months]. Logan began writing on his own and working on business plans with his friends. Logan along with three friends won a business competition. It was exciting! Logan then decided to try his own hand at a computer business. It worked well for over a year, until forced to move locations and Logan had difficulty from that point on. This was a life altering moment, one of many.
Job History:
Before heading down the path of medicine Logan worked hard in being an entrepreneur. Working with several friends and colleagues to explore the possibilities of this sector. It was fun and exciting. Together they took 1st place in the Utah Entrepreneur Challenge with a business concept called CityNet. This competition was done throughout the state of Utah with several participating universities. Overall they received $10,000 seed money to launch their business. They were also given the Wayne Brown Institute Award and the Award of Excellence from the Mountain West Venture Group. As a result they awarded us the best business plan of the year and helped us win a consulting package worth over $20,000.
Logan continued for a time with CityNet as an owner and part of the marketing team. He left to pursue another business adventure called FlyFlicker. This experience had nothing to do with fishing, though that would have been fun as well. FlyFlicker was a computer wholesale company that worked closely with many other top companies to provide computer supplies.
Things always seem to sneak up on Logan, a new adventure, a new story or another great idea. Thanks for joining him on his quest. Please feel free to comment wherever you want!!

KTBC, virtual and VHF digital channel 7, is a Fox owned-and-operated television station licensed to Austin, Texas, United States. The station is owned by the Fox Television Stations subsidiary of Fox Corporation. KTBC's studios are located on East 10th Street near the Texas State Capitol in downtown Austin, and its transmitter is based at the West Austin Antenna Farm on Mount Larson.
On cable, KTBC can be seen on Charter Spectrum, Suddenlink and Grande Communications channel 2.
Early history
KTBC-TV aired its first television broadcast on Thursday, November 27, 1952, becoming the first television station in Austin and Central Texas. Originally housed in a small studio in the Driskill Hotel,[2] the station was originally owned by the Texas Broadcasting Company (from whom the call letters are taken), which was in turn owned by then-Senator and future U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson and his wife Lady Bird, alongside KTBC radio (590 AM and 93.7 FM). Lady Bird Johnson used the money from her family inheritance to purchase KTBC-TV, she remained active with her radio station until she was in her eighties which led her to become the first president's wife to have become a millionaire on her own.[3] It carried all four major networks at the time: ABC, CBS, NBC and the now-defunct DuMont Television Network. However, it was a primary CBS affiliate. In its early history, it carried roughly 65% of CBS's schedule; NBC and ABC roughly split the remaining coverage in half.[4]
In 1960, the staff of channel 7 produced a film for the Texas Department of Public Safety, entitled Target Austin. The 20-minute film presents the scenario of a nuclear missile strike on the outskirts of Austin and follows the storylines of several characters from the CONELRAD broadcast to the announcement that it is safe to emerge from shelter. The film takes place in Austin, highlighting several iconic locations in the city, and featured an Austin-based cast and crew: including director Gordon Wilkison (of KTBC), narrator Cactus Pryor (also of KTBC), actress Coleen Hardin, and El Rancho restaurant owner Matt Martinez.[5]
KTBC-TV benefited from a quirk in the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s plan for allocating stations. In the early days of broadcast television, there were twelve VHF channels available and 69 UHF channels (later reduced to 55 in 1983). The VHF bands were more desirable because they carried longer distances. Since there were only twelve VHF channels available, there were limitations as to how closely the stations could be spaced.
After the FCC's Sixth Report and Order ended the license freeze and opened the UHF band in 1952, it devised a plan for allocating VHF licenses. Under this plan, almost all of the country would be able to receive two commercial VHF channels plus one noncommercial channel. Most of the rest of the country ("1/2") would be able to receive a third VHF channel. Other areas would be designated as "UHF islands" since they were too close to larger cities for VHF service. The "2" networks became CBS and NBC, "+1" represented non-commercial educational stations, and "1/2" became ABC (which was the weakest network usually winding up with the UHF allocation where no VHF was available).
However, Austin is sandwiched between San Antonio (channels 4, 5, 9, and 12) to the south, Houston (channels 2, 8, 11, and 13) to the east, and Waco/Temple/Bryan (channels 3, 6, and 10) to the north. This created a large doughnut in central Texas where there could be only one VHF license, which became KTBC-TV. Additionally, UHF signals usually do not travel very far over long distances or over rugged terrain. Even though Austin was large enough on paper to support three full network affiliates as early as the 1950s, the technical limitations made several potential owners skittish about the prospects for UHF in a market that stretched from Mason in the west to La Grange in the east, and also included much of the Hill Country.
As a result, KTBC-TV was the only station in Austin until KHFI-TV (channel 42, now KXAN-TV on channel 36) signed on in February 1965. NBC programming continued to be broadcast solely on KTBC-TV for the next 18 months due to contractual obligations. Channel 7 became an exclusive CBS affiliate when all of ABC's programming moved to KVUE (channel 24) when that station first signed on in September 1971.
After Lyndon Johnson became President following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, the networks established direct feed lines between KTBC and the various network affiliates in New York City, Dallas and Chicago. This facilitated news report relayed while the President was residing either in Austin or at his ranch in Johnson City. News reports were also relayed in the president Oval Office or in his private study at the White House. The Johnsons maintained a penthouse apartment on the fifth floor of the station, which was wired for camera and sound equipment, and used on occasion for local programming on occasions when the Johnsons were away.
This multi-network capability was first demonstrated live on August 1, 1966, following the UT Tower sniper incident. After Charles Whitman's sniper rampage had been stopped, the primary newsman on the scene, Neal Spelce, presented a wrap-up of the event that was carried on all three networks live later that evening. Although the connections were later replaced by satellite uplink technology, the lines were maintained for contingency usage for several years.
After he became President, President Johnson and his family's ownership of KTBC-TV was the source of investigative journalism and reporting, including a front-page story in The Wall Street Journal in March 1964 written by reporter Louis M. Kohlmeier.[6] With a headline that included "How President's Wife Built $17,500 Into Big Fortune in Television," Kohlmeier's reporting and the work done by other reporters and journalists at the time raised questions regarding the former Vice President and then President's influence on behalf of the Austin station.
The Johnsons sold KTBC-TV to the Los Angeles-based Times Mirror Company in 1973, making it a sister station to KDFW-TV in Dallas. The Johnsons kept the KTBC radio properties, and under then-FCC guidelines changed the stations' call letters to KLBJ-AM-FM. In 1994, Times Mirror sold KTBC-TV to Argyle Television.[7]
In January 1994, KTBC began to manage low-powered independent station K13VC (known as "KVC 13" on-air) under a local marketing agreement with that station's owner, Global Information Technologies. The LMA allowed KTBC to cross-promote its programming with K13VC for the next nine years until March 29, 2003 when K13VC was shut down[8] due to the channel 13 allocation being utilized for the digital signal for Univision owned-and-operated station KAKW.[9]
As a Fox station
In December 1993, Fox outbid CBS to obtain the broadcast rights to football games from the National Football Conference of the NFL.[10][11] In 1994, New World Communications signed a long-term affiliation deal with Fox, which was establishing itself as a major network and was looking for more VHF stations. In late 1994, most New World-owned stations (except for two) dropped their longtime "Big Three" affiliations and switched to Fox.[12][13] On January 19, 1995, New World took over operations of the Argyle stations through time brokerage agreements. Nearly three months later, New World completed its merger with Argyle.
The last CBS network program to air on KTBC was a repeat of Walker, Texas Ranger at 9:00 p.m. Central Time on July 1, 1995, the day that channel 7 ended its 43-year affiliation with the network and became a Fox affiliate; the CBS affiliation went to former Fox station KBVO (channel 42), which changed its call letters to KEYE-TV. As the new Fox affiliate, channel 7 was able to continue as Austin's unofficial "home" of the Dallas Cowboys, because of Fox's rights to the NFC. KTBC had carried most Cowboys games since the team's inception in 1960 by virtue of CBS winning television rights to the NFL in 1956. For many years, it also carried Cowboys preseason games, though those telecasts moved to KEYE in 2006. In its early years as a Fox station, KTBC filled its daytime lineup with talk shows and the nighttime schedule with off-network sitcoms. Although Channel 7 acquired the rights to most of Fox's programming, KTBC and K13VC initially split the local broadcast rights to the network's children's programming block, Fox Kids, as KTBC station management declined to carry the block's weekday lineup, a move which had become standard practice for the other New World stations that had joined Fox since September 1994. KTBC only took the Saturday morning Fox Kids lineup, and simulcast it in conjunction with K13VC until September 1997, when the former ceded its partial rights to Fox Kids exclusively to Channel 13 and replaced it with real estate, paid and E/I-compliant programs. (K13VC continued to air the weekday children's block until Fox discontinued it, confining Fox Kids programming, to Saturdays on December 31, 2001; it began carrying Fox Kids successor, the FoxBox, on September 14, 2002 and continued to air that block until the station ceased operations in 2003. Neither the block, renamed to 4KidsTV in 2005, nor its successor, Weekend Marketplace, have been carried in the Austin market since.)
The station came under ownership of Fox when New World merged with Fox Television Stations in 1996;[14] this made KTBC the first owned-and-operated network station in the Austin market (KEYE was subsequently purchased by CBS in 2000; KTBC became the only English-language network O&O in the market after CBS sold KEYE to Four Points Media Group in 2007). In the spring of 1997, a rumor that KTBC and Phoenix's KSAZ-TV would be traded to the Belo Corporation in exchange for Seattle's KIRO-TV circulated,[15] but this deal never came to fruition. Belo would acquire rival KVUE and Phoenix's KTVK two years later. In recent years, the station's daytime lineup has leaned away from talk shows in favor of running mostly court shows.

KTBC shut down its analog signal on June 12, 2009, as part of the FCC-mandated transition to digital television for full-power stations.[17] The station's digital signal relocated from its pre-transition UHF channel 56, which was among the high band UHF channels (52-69) that were removed from broadcasting use as a result of the transition, to its analog-era VHF channel 7 for post-transition operations.

Is it possible that the eighteenth-century stage offered more adventurous female possibilities than our own can imagine? Or is it that we can't imagine that they imagined them?
These questions run through my mind nearly every time I see an eighteenth-century play on stage—or as the public radio commercial for the recent Folger Theater production of R. B. Sheridan's School for Scandal would have it, a "Restoration comedy."
First let me say that there were some very wonderful moments, fine acting, and astute theatrical decisions in this production. The cast nailed the "screen scene," in which the hypocritical Joseph Surface hides Lady Teazle behind one panel while her elderly husband peeks out from behind another, only to have Joseph's rakish brother Charles expose the lady (and her would-be seducer) in this compromising situation. Kate Eastwood Norris brought exactly the right balance of ambition, provincialism, and good-heartedness to her Lady Teazle.
Undermining this otherwise successful production was the decision to cast a man in the part of Lady Sneerwell. Apparently, skilled actresses over 35 are in such demand that none were available. Gender-blindness was not the point, for the production opens with a wigless and topless Sneerwell enjoying a massage from Snake. Why does the original Gossip Girl, who controls all the reputations in London, become a transvestite male in the Folger production?
The most obvious possibility is an attempt to get some mileage out of eliding the eighteenth century with the nineteenth century, setting the play in "the time of Oscar Wilde" when "the veneer of respectability covers the hidden depth of scandal" (Director's Notes). If you are setting a play in the time of Oscar Wilde, why not turn one of the female characters into a gay man? Directors often think that Restoration and eighteenth-century plays aren't funny enough, and add things to make them more contemporary. Sometimes such ideas work and sometimes they don't.
But I have a darker theory. With Lady Sneerwell, Sheridan recalls the figure of the powerful, sometimes embittered, and always sexually experienced women who appeared regularly in the period's earlier, less sentimental comedies that Sheridan admired. They include such memorable characters as Mrs. Loveit from The Man of Mode, the Fidget ladies in The Country Wife, Lady Wishfort in The Way of the World, Betty Frisque in The Countrey Wit, Mrs. Turnup in The Morning Ramble, Mrs. Jilt in Epsom Wells, and Angellica Bianca in The Rover. These women attempt to turn neglect into power and/or pleasure, with varying degrees of success. Unlike these earlier figures, however, Lady Sneerwell embraces an alternative to sexual maneuvering: gossip. While The School for Scandal, like The Rover and The Man of Mode, ultimately expels its dangerous amazon, she offers an intriguing alternative to the virginal, rumor-adverse Mariah. (If a director really wanted to challenge the audience, why not Mariah as a gay transvestite man?) Contemporary readers and directors find these disreputable female characters puzzling because they do not comport with popular images of pre-1900 female gender constructions. Yet it also seems possible that the Restoration- and eighteenth-century theaters imagined possibilities for women that lie beyond the scope of the contemporary scene.

Madeira's capital, Funchal, might be at the opposite end of the island, but it's still less than 35km away. Head here for colourful markets, blissful gardens and mesmerising ancient architecture. It's a city of nature, history and enchanting art all rolled into one.
Madeira's answer to the chocolate-box Cotswolds, the village of Santana is charming and then some. It's the handful of iconic A-frame houses that pull in the crowds – traditional triangular huts with thatched roofs and white, red and blue facades. Some have little shops inside too!

- Wayne Winter Director of Faith Development
Be the Light: Shining God's Mercy
On March 13, 2015, Pope Francis was presiding over a penance service in St. Peter's Basilica when he announced an extraordinary Jubilee dedicated to Mercy. The Jubilee Year was to begin on the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception (December 8, 2015) and conclude on November 20, 2016 - Christ the King Sunday.
In anticipation of the Jubilee Year, Bishop Steven J. Raica and the diocesan staff hosted Merciful Like the Father: Becoming Heralds of God's Mercy, a conference designed to encourage the faithful to begin thinking about works of mercy in their everyday lives. Bishop Raica delivered the keynote address, and conference participants attended several breakout sessions that included topics such as indulgences, grief and bereavement ministry, ministering in hospitals, and more. Throughout the year, parishes across the diocese hosted the series Hidden Treasures of the Catholic Church, with each month focusing on a different work of mercy.
Now, as we approach the end of this Jubilee Year, Bishop Raica invites the faithful to join him at Be the Light: Shining God's Mercy, a conference focusing on the many ways we can continue to live out our call to mercy.
The conference will be held at the Cooney Conference Center in Gaylord and will feature Fr. Duane Wachowiak as the keynote speaker. Doors will open at 9:00 a.m. for check-in and hospitality, and the day will begin with a prayer service at 9:30 a.m. Participants will attend four 45-minute breakout sessions throughout the afternoon, and the day will conclude with the 5:00 p.m. Mass and Closing of the Holy Door to Conclude the Year of Mercy celebrated by Bishop Raica at St. Mary Cathedral.
Cost for the day is $10 per person for those who register by Monday, October 31, and $15 per person for those who register after. The cost includes lunch, and scholarships are available for those in need. Registrations must be received by Wednesday, November 16 and will not be accepted at the door.
For more information or to request a scholarship, contact Wayne Winter at 989.732.5147 or via email at email@example.com.
Keynote Address
The Mystery of Faith: Finding Mercy in the Liturgies of the Church
Fr. Duane Wachowiak
The Corporal and Spiritual Acts of Mercy are proclaimed in the many prayers used at Mass and other liturgical celebrations. Particular attention will be made to the Eucharistic Prayer and how we can be reminded to continue this Jubilee Year of Mercy each time we participate in this act of God's mercy toward us. Some cultural adaptations allowed in Mass will also be discussed during this "walk-through" of the prayers and life of the Church.
Fr. Duane Wachowiak was born and raised in Saginaw. He attended seminary at Sacred Heart Seminary and School of Theology in Hales Corners, Wisconsin, and was ordained by Bishop Patrick Cooney in 1998. In 2002, he received a Master's in Theology with a concentration in Liturgy from the University of Notre Dame. He has since served as the Director of Worship & Liturgy for the Diocese of Gaylord, and returned to Sacred Heart as the Director of Liturgy and Liturgical Formation, where he was also a member of the Board of Directors. Fr. Duane is a member of the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions, and has previously served on the Board of Directors. His commentary was heard on live TV during the Episcopal Ordinations of Bishop Steven J. Raica in 2014 and former Bishop of Gaylord Bernard A. Hebda in 2009. Currently, he is the Pastor of St. Mary-St. Charles in Cheboygan, St. Clement in Pellston, Sacred Heart in Riggsville, and St. Mary in Burt Lake.

Debate is brewing over whether individuals' risk assessments will be based on factors out of their control.
As is the case in many cities, jails in Philadelphia are overcrowded and full of people who have been found guilty of nothing. These people are behind bars because they cannot afford to pay bail, a circular problem that is costing the city millions. The city is currently holding about a thousand inmates over the capacity of its jails, and more than half of these individuals have not been found guilty of a crime, according to Newsworks.
In an effort to release more of that pre-trial inmate population, Philadelphia lawmakers are debating employing a new risk-assessment algorithm, which would determine who should be released and how high bail amounts should be set.
Proponents of the new program argue that a data-driven system would be fairer than the subjective decisions of bail commissioners. But critics contend that the algorithm is not the best solution to this problem, and could unfairly deny release to individuals because of policing patterns in the neighborhoods they happen to be from.
Opponents claim the algorithm's apparent weighing of factors, including past arrest records, age, gender, and employment history, could penalize individuals based on characteristics beyond their control, or on mistakes made years ago.
"That's a price. It's a price you may choose to pay," Richard Berks, the algorithm's creator and a professor of criminology at the University of Pennsylvania, said at a recent council hearing, according to the technology blog Technical.ly.
For now, it appears that some factors, including race and zip code, will be excluded from the algorithm, but Berks says that could compromise the results.
"How many aggravated assaults, how many homicides, how many rapes are you prepared to trade for an instrument that's race-neutral?," said Berks to Newsworks.
Critics have pointed out that there may be better ways to release people from the city's overcrowded jails.
"We can do this without the algorithm," says Paul Hetznecker, a veteran criminal defense attorney in Philadelphia. "All we have to do is ask, 'Is this a serious crime? Does this retail theft or possession of cocaine require incarceration?'"
Hetznecker contends that police bias and the concentration of aggressive policing in majority-black parts of cities could skew the algorithm's computations of what an offender looks like in the first place. Studies have, for example, found that Philadelphia police often stop minorities without meeting "reasonable suspicion" standards.
"This is racial profiling through computer models," says Hetznecker. "They're creating categories of people who are supposedly more likely to commit crimes by looking at what their addresses are or at the past arrest histories of their families, stripping individuals of every protection afforded by the Constitution."
Which factors will be included and how heavily each will be weighed by the algorithm is still to be decided. So far, local media has not been able to obtain a complete breakdown of the factors used in the algorithm. And this lack of access is troubling. "The problem is that people who are not statisticians are not able to be critical consumers of the product," said David Robinson, a data-ethics analyst to City & State.
Recent investigative reports have found similar programs to be racially biased. A recent ProPublica investigation found that a risk-assessment algorithm in Broward County, Florida, developed a bias against African-Americans, routinely labeling low-level offenders "riskier" than white criminals charged with more serious crimes.
Beyond the potential problems of this program, Hetznecker also worries that such predictive analytics could undermine assumptions which are vital to the civil liberties guaranteed by the criminal justice system.
"If you are at a bail hearing and the bail commissioner's algorithm looks at the arrest history that your parents or siblings have, you've completely undermined due process," says Hetznecker. "You are going to be considered a risk because of where you come from. You are no longer presumed innocent."

New issue
New Issue
Any offering of stock by a publicly-traded company. If it is the first such offering, it is called an initial public offering (IPO); otherwise, it is called a follow-on offering. A company makes a new issue through underwriters, who have the responsibility to place the offering with individual and institutional investors. Companies make new issues in order to raise financing for expanded operations, or because they have become cash poor and need to finance their current operations. The offerings themselves give investors a portion of ownership in the company issuing them.
new issue
A security that is being initially offered to the public. New stock issues are often quite risky; the securities may change significantly in price shortly after the initial sale has been completed. The greatest number of new issues generally appear near the end of an extended bull market. See also offering price.
New issue.
When a stock or bond is offered for sale for the first time, it's considered a new issue.
New issues can be the result of an initial public offering (IPO), when a private company goes public, or they can be additional, or secondary, offerings from a company that's already public.
For example, a public company may sell bonds from time to time to raise capital. Each time a new bond is offered, it's considered a new issue.

I posted this recipe the first time on May 15th, 2010. I made this recipe not too long ago and decided to revise the recipe and take a much better picture.
Original: About a month ago Tom and I randomly decided to order subs from Domino's. Living in the middle of no where, I didn't even know that we had a Domino's or that they delivered. Luckily for us, they did. I looked at their menu online and instantly decided that I wanted the Mango Habanero Chicken Sandwich. I love spicy foods and thought this would be awesome. It was. Unbelievably awesome. It had that right amount of spice that makes your lips tingle and just enough sweetness that you could keep eating it. I knew that I had to recreate this sandwich.
Mango Habanero Chicken Sandwiches
Inspired by: Dominos Pizza
Servings: 3
Printer Friendly
- 3 chicken cutlets or tenderloins
- 1 large jalapeno pepper
- 1/4 cup shredded pineapple
- 3-4 tbsp. Mango Habanero hot sauce
- 6 slices provolone cheese (Sargento)
- 3 sub rolls
1. Place the jalapeno pepper in a small pot with 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a rolling boil. Remove from the heat and set the jalapeno pepper aside to cool.
2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425. Line a baking sheet with foil.
3. Spray a skillet with non-stick cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes or until cooked through.
4. Shred the chicken or cut into bite sizes pieces. Place two slices of provolone cheese on each sub roll. Place the rolls on the baking sheet and bake for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the rolls are lightly toasted.
5. Meanwhile, slice the jalapeno pepper into thin rings, removing the membrane and seeds if you want to reduce the heat.
6. Layer each sub roll with chicken, shredded pineapple and jalapeno rings. Drizzle the hot sauce over the subs and return to the oven for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Serve immediately.
These were just as good as I remembered the first time, maybe even better. I still need to create my own mango habanero hot sauce but I can never seem to find ripe mangos and habaneros in the grocery store on the same weeks. I'm starting to think its a conspiracy against me. :-p

Toward Maturity, p.244
Many oldsters who have put our A.A. "booze cure" to severe but successful tests still find they often lack emotional sobriety. To attain this, we must develop real maturity and balance (which is to say, humility) in our relations with ourselves, with our fellows, and with God.
Let A.A. never be a closed corporation; let us never deny our experience, for whatever it may be worth, to the world around us. Let our individual members heed the call to every field of human endeavor. Let them carry the experience and spirit of A.A. into all these affairs, for whatever good they may accomplish. For not only has God saved us from alcoholism; the world has received us back into its citizenship.
