1990 Pontiac Sunbird ProblemsTorque Converter Clutch Can Stick After Extended Freeway Driving
The torque converter clutch can stick "on" after extended freeway driving causing the engine to stall when coming to a stop. Our technicians tell us when this occurs, the engine usually will restart and stall when put into gear. After allowing about twenty minutes for the engine and transmission to cool down, the engine will start and the transmission will operate normally. Replacing the torque converter clutch solenoid, transmission filter, and fluid will generally correct this issue.
The ignition module or crankshaft position sensor may fail causing the engine to die and not restart. Diagnoses will be necessary to determine if the module or crank sensor is causing the no start condition.
A coolant leak may develop from the water pump. The engine may overheat as a result of the coolant loss. A leaking water pump should be replaced.

I was captivated by the northwest rainforest during my month last fall in North Cascades National Park and rainforest, and after a long winter I needed to get away from the studio and commune with nature. After some deliberation I ended up in the Olympic National Park on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington. I was not disappointed with the rainforest or the Pacific beaches.
In particular the Hoh Rainforest was breathtaking–the great trees, mosses, ferns, birds, bugs–layers and layers of life, life that has taken millennium to evolve. To simply sit in it was joyful. To be able to also sketch and try to interpret a bit of that beauty with my skills was therapeutic. When I sit quietly in an environment that has been changing and building for so many centuries, I get a glimpse of what life should be, of how an organism can support not just itself but also form symbiotic relationships with so many other organisms around it. One of the great Sitka spruce in the forest might be 500 years old and all during its life host hundreds of other species, but death does not end its bounty. It continues to give nutrition and shelter for up to another 500 years as it decays. What lessons the rainforest has for us–what priceless gifts, not measured in board feet.
The problem came in getting in and out of the park. The interior section of the park is huge with the vast majority devoted to wilderness. The coastal part of the park is a very narrow strip intermittently running down the west coast of the peninsula. Most of the land on the peninsula that is not in the park has been logged or is being logged now. After the massive logging of the 1920’s and 1930’s, the timber industry has had its boom and bust periods since and is now on an upswing with Asian demand for lumber high. Areas of former rainforest have been converted to tree plantations with the huge rainfall of the area stimulating rapid growth. I expected this, but what I did not expect was the continuing destruction of old-growth rainforest. When I first drove into a clear-cut area, I almost drove off the road. I cannot adequately describe either the visual or emotional experience. It was a scene of total devastation–enormous stumps, smaller stumps torn from the ground and scattered, grotesque piles of branches all a ghostly gray color. Other than a bit of brush, little was growing. It was dead and the death was not a peaceful one. Rape, pillage, destruction, devastation all seem words that contain some of what I saw. What took so many thousands of years to create was gone. It was not an uncommon sight. On my many drives to sketching sites I found area after area in this condition. I thought that maybe the grayed color of the stumps I was seeing meant that clear-cutting was not being practiced today. That idea was dispelled when I came upon a fresh cut of old-growth—the same scene of devastation but the flesh of the trees still fresh. Moving from the sublime of the preserved rainforest to the terror of the decimated areas several times a day for a week weighed heavily on me with sorrow for the wanton destruction humans can thoughtlessly apply to other life.
At the end of my final day of sketching at Ruby Beach, I began the drive back to my motel in Forks. I had passed a sign for a turn-off to see a “big cedar” many times during the week. I decided that it would do me good to see a great tree before my return to the studio. It was a long drive on a small road through state land that was being “managed” by a timber company. Mostly I saw plantation trees but there were still some gruesome clear-cuts. The road became smaller the further I went but finally led me to the tree. I thought it was dead at first but then saw that it still had some live growth on a few upper limbs. It was big. As a matter of fact, it was the largest western red cedar in the world. It towered above the logged tree plantation around it like a dying sentinel. Someone had scrawled on the informational sign “this tree would not be dying if the forest around it had not been removed.” Maybe so. How many more trees as great or nearly as great have been removed for profit, taking with them an ecosystem so deep and rich most of us cannot begin to understand it.
What I take away from this story is that we must support our National Park system. Support in every way possible–economic, political, support for any possible expansions, and moral support for those who dedicate their lives and professions to maintaining these natural wonders. The parks are our best hope to preserve bits of what this world once was, to save the wisdom, information, beauty, and lessons they contain that are beyond all monetary value, and to guard these remnants from the greed of humanity. This certainly goes for Olympic National Park and equally for every other nature-oriented national park in our country. Someone once said that the National Park system is the best idea the United States has had. I am in complete agreement.

Jane Yolen is not an easy author to summarize in a short author study. With over 360 books, how do you choose what to study when everything is so great? The good news is that you really can’t go wrong by studying any of her books. Jane Yolen is the queen of poetic techniques. Chief among these are:
These techniques sing strong through her work and will also be the topics discussed below in detail.
The best stories capture emotions, characters and worlds. Jane Yolen is a master storyteller because of her dedication to lyrical language. She chooses the just-right words and details.
In SOFT HOUSE, Jane creates an emotional bond between a sister and a brother by choosing exactly the right words:
“At first I’m happy Davey has gone upstairs. But he takes a long time. Much too long for just a few blankets. I go to the foot of the stairs and call his name. “Davey?” Then louder. “Davey!” It’s no good. I have to go find him.”
In OWL MOON, Jane pulls us into her world and the relationship of a daughter and father by heightening our senses:
“Somewhere behind us a train whistle blew, long and low like a sad, sad song. I could hear it through the wollen cap Pa had pulled down over my ears.”
Notice how this last line shows that her father takes good care of her.
Jane’s words do what the illustration cannot do:
“Pa made a long shadow, but mine was short and round. I had to run after him every now and then, and my short round shadow bumped after me.”
Yes, an illustrator can show a tall shadow and a short one, but this puts us in the girl’s mind, experience, and world directly. The fact that the girl observes her shadow bumping as she runs shows the true wonder that a child experiences.
Jane captures the wonder of a child’s mind and how big something new can feel:
“Pa turned on his big flashlight and caught the owl just as it was landing on a branch. For one minute, three minutes, maybe even a hundred minutes, we stared at one another.”
Every piece of this story fits together to make a masterpiece.
Jane Yolen utilizes repetition to drive home the most important lines. As a result, we internalize each story and feel connected on an empathetic level.
In YOU NEST HERE WITH ME, the title is repeated throughout to emphasize a safe, loving home. What better line to repeat?
Pigeons nest on concrete ledges,
Catbirds nest in greening hedges,
Tiny wrens in shoreline sedges.
You nest here with me.”
In THE STRANDED WHALE, Jane uses repetition to build emotional impact:
“Not me. I was too mad to cry.
Mad at the unforgiving ocean, rushing away from the shore.
Mad at our short arms and the whale’s long body.
Mad that we didn’t have a boat, a winch, long ropes to pull it to the sea.
Mad at everything.”
In HUSH LITTLE HORSIE, Jane changes the underlined verb each time this stanza repeats.
She’ll watch when you run,
And she’ll watch when you leap.
And when you are tired,
She’ll watch when you sleep.”
The simple pattern encourages reread requests from the very young and creates confident readers. The soothing language lulls a child to sleep and plants dreamy images in their heads.
In HARVEST HOME, the repetition of “Bringing the harvest home” sets us up for the rhythm of hard work that this family’s livelihood depends on:
“Three months just past, I helped to sow,
Bringing the harvest home.
I planted wheat in every row,
Bringing the harvest home.”
From simple rhymes for the very young to intricate rhymes that delight the tongue, Jane Yolen infuses beautiful poetry in both verse and prose. Whether you write in rhyme or not, you will learn to master the rhythm and flow of language by studying Jane’s work.
From the simple side:
NOT ALL PRINCESSES DRESS IN PINK
“Not all princesses dress in pink.
Some play in bright red socks that stink.
Blue team jerseys that don’t quite fit,
Accessorized with a baseball mitt,
And a sparkly crown.”
To tongue-tacular, soothing, and educational:
COME TO FAIRIES BALL
“And then what a tizzy, a flap, and a pother,
A terrible foofaraw, swivet, and bother,
A twitter, a dither, oh my! what a rumble,
A fret and a fuss and a fidget and grumble.”
Jane Yolen’s series of imaginative, kid-centric stories:
“When he gets to the school does he roughhouse and punch?
Does he make a quick grab for a classmate’s packed lunch?”
With such a large body of literary work to explore, we can all come away with different meanings and impact from Jane Yolen’s work. In How to be a Prolific Picture Book Author, Jane shares her daily writing routine, how she works on multiple manuscripts at the same, how she handles rejection, and what it really means to be prolific.

By Parke Shall
More than one thing is wrong with the Federal Reserve supposedly getting ready to trim down its balance sheet and continuing to raise interest rates. In this article today we wanted to review why we think the coming Fed taper is mostly going to be a fake out and will eventually lead to the next round of quantitative easing that will take markets higher.
Let's start off with some of the facts. We have had, in stock market terms, one of the largest bull markets in history over the last nine years, where we have seen the price of equities almost double in some cases and many asset classes appreciate in value significantly.
This asset appreciation comes despite a real recovery, some would argue. Employment numbers have been influenced by service sector jobs and part time jobs. We have essentially created a fake recovery out of simply spending and while productivity may have increased slightly over the last few years, a good majority of our recovery has come from American consumers and American families burdening themselves with more debt than they had prior to 2008 and increased spending associated with these burdens. The media seems to want to couch this, and pretend that it's all OK this time around. CNBC stated,
The New York Federal Reserve reports that household debt across the nation has hit a dubious milestone in the first quarter: It surpassed the peak debt level of 2008 at $12.7 trillion.
Household debt - including mortgages, auto and student loans, and credit cards - rose $149 billion compared with the last quarter of 2016, with nearly all the gain coming from mortgages.
Reaching the peak raises questions about whether the backdrop exists again for another financial meltdown. But the data show the current structure of debt is substantially different from 2008.
This puts the Federal Reserve in a precarious position. First, they have already screwed up by waiting this long to address rate hikes and trimming their balance sheet. This is something the Federal Reserve should have been doing the entire time the market was roaring higher over the last nine years. However, they have mostly been cowards throughout that time, nervous that a rate hike could negatively influence equities for a day or two and using this as an excuse to continue to stay dovish. Now, we are at a point of no return. The market has exploded and its valuations have been called too high by everybody from CEOs, to hedge fund managers, to Janet Yellen herself. Yet, when we look at interest rates they still aren't above the 1% level that Alan Greenspan once cut to during another "emergency".
With the amount of debt that the United States has now accumulated, raising interest rates would probably have the most profound effect on our government. While corporations and consumers would certainly feel the screws tightened a little bit as the cost of servicing debt across the board would inch higher, the United States would likely feel the biggest blow as the cost of servicing our national debt would move significantly higher.
The Fed would also not be able to allow the market to move lower. Don't let these last couple of months fool you. Yes, the market is moving higher because supposedly things are good enough for us to be raising rates again. However, that is simply not how economics work. You can't have a boom while bringing rates lower and then have another boom while moving to tighten rates. At some point, bubbles will form as a result of this that are much larger than they would have been had the government not intervened in the first place.
In a real rate hike scenario, where rates were possibly hiked another 200 to 400 basis points, the effects would be profound. The stock market would definitely sell off and consumers would begin defaulting on debt obligations even quicker. This is the scenario that would definitely bring some volatility and unease to the market and although it will have been much needed, we just don't see the Federal Reserve allowing that to happen.
As a result, the Fed will probably hold short on its taper and again start another cycle of quantitative easing. We think this next cycle of quantitative easing will again put a boost underneath equities and asset prices, but only for so long. In fact, many have asked us when we thought the market will take a turn for the worse over the course of the long term and we have often thought this would come after the next round of quantitative easing. Interest rates don't have much lower to go and the Fed's balance sheet will have simply ballooned out of control. At the same time, our national debt will not be dealt with and the credit worthiness of the country could eventually be called into question.
While today this all seems a bit shocking and possibly very unlikely, it is only because many investors and analysts choose to view the economy on a day by day basis. We think over the course of the longer-term, a situation like the one we have described is not exactly impossible. The saving grace of the country is that the dollar continues to be held in reserve worldwide. Should this ever be
called into question, the country could face a catastrophe like we have never seen before. But for now, we think the Fed's coming taper is just a smoke show. It is all just doing the bare minimum to give the impression that a real taper could be on its way. While we don't even think the Fed will really begin to taper much further from here, if they do, we don't think it'll be long before the engine is thrown into reverse and quantitative easing starts once again.
We have several funds and portfolios that we run, one of which is a long only portfolio that has a multiple year outlook. As we start heading into the next year or two we have been increasing our allocations in bonds, emerging markets, precious metals and other asset classes like real estate. Slowly, we are moving out of U.S. equities. We have no interest in being 100% long US stocks over the next couple of years as we believe that a marked correction will eventually come, even if it has to be after QE 4.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A company seeking to build a new facility that produces methane gas from manure and other organic material has scrapped plans to build at a western Louisville site amid outcry from residents and local leaders.
STAR BioEnergy announced on Thursday that it would withdraw its application to the city's zoning board to build the methane plant on the city's western end.
Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer had supported the project, but some residents opposed building the facility in a residential area. The Courier-Journal reports (http://cjky.it/1ZS1ASx ) Fischer urged the company to pull back on the project weeks ago after previously supporting it. The mayor says other sites may be available.
"This is the people's victory and a defeat for the mayor," said Councilwoman Mary Woolridge, a Democrat. "And I want the mayor to know anything we don't want in our community, we will unite to keep it out."
Opponents have said the alternative energy sources are a good idea but are against building such a facility in a neighborhood.
The company sought to build a 3,700-square-foot building and four 44-foot-tall sealed tanks at a site owned by Heaven Hill Distillery. Fischer had said that the technology was a good way to recycle organic Heaven Hill distillery waste and other food waste into energy.
In a statement, STAR attorney Brian Zoeller said the company is looking for alternative sites in an industrial or other appropriate area.

TFMS’s Fourth Annual Film Series, February 2011, offered a range in forms of alternative animation and collage. Participating filmmakers included cutout animator and collagist Lewis Klahr (California Institute of the Arts), computer animator and video installation artist James Duesing (Carnegie Mellon University), and animator Karen Aqua, whose short films have screened in Croatia, Japan, and France and on the iconic children’s television program, “Sesame Street.”
Karen Aqua (1954-2011)
According to Leah Sullivan, Animation Magazine, animator Karen Aqua “has a distinctive style and vision of her own, coupled with a dancer’s sense of movement and a musician’s sense of rhythm.”
Karen Aqua has been making animated films since graduating from Rhode Island School of Design in 1976. She has completed 11 independently produced animated films and one collaborative animation/live action video. Her award-winning films have screened worldwide, at festivals in Europe, Asia, North and South America, New Zealand, and the Middle East. She has received fellowships from the American Film Institute, the MacDowell Colony, Millay Colony for the Arts, and Fundación Valparaíso (Spain), among many others. Aqua has taught animation at Boston College, Emerson College, and at workshops and residencies around the United States, and has served as a juror for film festivals in Japan, Canada, and the U.S. In 2005, a special program of Aqua’s animated films was presented at the Tehran International Animation Festival, Iran. Since 1990 she has directed/animated 22 segments for the acclaimed children’s television program “Sesame Street.”
One of Aqua’s recent films, “Twist of Fate” (2009), was screened at Telluride Film Festival, Starz Denver Film Festival, and Ottawa International Animation Festival, and has won awards at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, James River Film Festival, and Black Maria Film & Video Festival, New York.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Aqua was unable to attend the screening of her work. Her frequent collaborator, musician Ken Field, represented her at the screening. Aqua’s program of animations for the Fourth Annual TFMS Film Series included the following films:
1980, 3 min, music by Handsome Brothers
An astronomical love story.
“Integrates style and content in a fluid tale of the relationship between the individual and the universe.” – Michael Blowen, Boston Globe
Yours for the Taking
1984, 7 min, collaboration with clay artist Jeanee Redmond, music by D. Sharpe
A three-legged cup embarks on a journey, filling itself with images and impressions of its surroundings.
1987, 7 min, music by Ken Field, Robert Moses, and Ken Winokur
A fortune teller’s cards lead the viewer on a journey through time and collective memory, using the metaphor of a cat’s multiple lives.
1989, 4 min, music composed by Karlo Tacky, performed by Skin
A striking blend of music and image, contrasting the tension and chaos of modern urban life with the ritualized order of tribal societies.
1992, 5 min, music by Ken Field
A shrine to ritualized time. This film celebrates the cyclical nature of time and the symbols and rites which have been created to mark and honor its passage.
Ground Zero/Sacred Ground
1997, 9 min, music by Ken Field
In south central New Mexico, an ancient Native American rock art site lies 35 miles from the detonation site of the world’s first atomic bomb. The juxtaposition of these sites points to the striking contrast between the two worlds which created them: one which reveres and lives in harmony with the natural world, and one which, in striving to control the forces of nature, has created a means for its destruction.
2004, 6 min, collaboration with Joanna Priestley, music by Juanito Pascual
A traveler’s love letter to Andalucia, this animated film is an homage to the culture, landscape, and architecture of southern Spain. The film explores details of the natural world in relation to the four elements, and suggests the close relationship between people and the land which they inhabit.
2007, 5 min, collaboration with Ken Field, with animation by Karen Aqua and music by Ken Field
A hand-drawn experimental animation exploring the relationship between music and image.
An alphabet of abstract animated and musical gestures combines in various configurations to create a visible rhythm in this study of sound/motion synthesis.
Twist of Fate
2009, 8:40 min, sound by Ken Field, music by Birdsongs of the Mesozoic
This experimental animated film explores the transformative experience of being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. This expressionistic piece captures impressions of such an experience: upheaval, uncertainty, a sense of physical intrusion, and loss of control. Exploring this emotional landscape, the film visualizes an internal world within the body, imagined on a cellular level.
“Modern illness is a combination of the scientific, the mysterious, and the ineffable — a startling subject for Aqua, one of the animation world’s most playful, rhythmic talents.” – Telluride Film Festival
Animation historian Robert Russett has said of James Duesing’s digital animations: “Characteristically composed of dark fantasy worlds and strange hybrids of animals and humans, Duesing’s digital animation offers comical and eccentric reflections on human interactions and desires in an increasingly violent and polluted world. On one level his imagery is composed of entertaining cartoon-like characters in various kinds of richly rendered environments. On another level his work probes serious sociological issues in a way that is at once provocative and disturbing.”
A professor in electronic and time based art at Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Art, James Duesing has had hundreds of exhibitions throughout the world in major museums, including New York’s Museum of Modern Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; at film festivals, including Sundance and Ars Electronica; and for broadcast, including on MTV and Showtime. His work is held in collections at the Museum of Modern Art; the Goethe Memorial Museum, Tokyo; the UCLA Film Archive, Los Angeles; and The Israel Museum. He has been co-director of The STUDIO of Creative Inquiry, a center for interdisciplinary collaboration in art and science projects.
Duesing’s program of animations for the Fourth Annual TFMS Film Series included the following films:
1983, 5 min, 16mm original, hand drawn
“Impetigo” is the story of passion and possession in a steamy nocturnal landscape. The characters Zeke, an inhibited birdlike creature; Flake, a post-industrialist robot; and Fish, a fish, live in a barren tract amidst surveillance and entrapment. Their main concerns are lust and what to do on weekends.
Tugging the Worm
1987, 10 min, 16mm original, hand drawn
In a culture bounded by nihilism and a strong military presence monuments are raised to the dead and to the things that killed them. It would be austere if it were not dominated by high fashion and billboards that tell the characters there is a larger more beautiful world and it can be bought on credit. The inbred and hybrid beings that inhabit these landscapes enjoy seeing murders acted out for entertainment. They see each other only as stereotypes. They talk about going places and eating things. They dream of spending their life with someone or getting away from the one with whom they’re spending their life. They are told that in order to be safe they must not touch; yet, sometimes they touch. Sometimes they strike. Sometimes they dance. Sometimes they hold it all in.

When their culture shifts to being information and service based, industrialists are corralled on a reservation named Lorado to sell plastic things as remnants of their past traditions. The reservation is built on a polluted lake, which is a tourist attraction. In Lorado there are many forms of love and everyone keeps a pet. The story turns on the suicide of Fashionette’s fish, because of bad water conditions, and ends with a large-scale chemical fire.
Law of Averages
1996, 15 min, color, computer generated
“Law of Averages” is a story that occurs in two places, a lush garden and an addictive interactive theater called Big Ghost. In the garden two lovers meet and begin a relationship that is complicated by a lack of exact compatibility, daily compromise, and occasional sensuousness. The theater is the temptation in this exotic urban paradise. It stars a wild and addictive creature named Vynola. Vynola obsesses the minds of all that come to visit.
2003, 8 min, computer generated
“Tender Bodies” is a sinister yet humorous story that imagines a time when genetic experiments become an elite hobby. The creatures created are hunters and hunted, and one unusual specimen becomes the entertainment at a strange party.
End of Code
2009, 15 min, computer generated
An animation that combines narrative experimentation with the abstraction of motion capture about two groups of misfit hackers in a city of traffic. They speak a language of advertising, corporate branding, and self-help, while engaging in a battle to control traffic lights. The discovery that the entire social code is embedded in the access code that regulates traffic lights begins a twisted ride through an environment of characters caught in an endless rush hour.
Called “the reigning proponent of cut and paste” animation by J. Hoberman of the Village Voice, collagist Lewis Klahr has been making films since 1977. Klahr is known for his uniquely idiosyncratic experimental films and cutout animations that have screened extensively in the United States, Europe, and Asia, including at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the Toronto International Film Festival, the Hong Kong International Film Festival, the London Film Festival, and Los Angeles Filmforum. In May 2010, the Wexner Center for the Arts in Columbus, Ohio presented a five-program retrospective of his films.
Klahr’s “Wednesday Morning Two A.M.” (2009) was awarded a Tiger Award for Best Short Film at the 2010 International Film Festival in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. In its recent poll of the top 50 experimental filmmakers from 2000 to 2010, Film Comment magazine ranked Klahr fourth. His epic cutout animation “The Pharaoh’s Belt” received a special citation for experimental work from the National Society of Film Critics in 1994. He has also received commissions from European arts organizations, such as the Gronnegard Theater in Copenhagen, Denmark (for “Lulu”) and the Rotterdam International Film Festival (for “Two Minutes to Zero”). His work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Lewis Klahr currently teaches film and video and experimental animation at the California Institute of the Arts.
Klahr’s program of animations for the Fourth Annual TFMS Film Series was entitled Prolix Satori and included only a handful of the seven films which follow the series description; Klahr substituted films at the time of their screening.
Prolix Satori, series title
2009-2010, digital video, 7 films, 78 minutes
“I have often worked in series before—’Picture Books For Adults,’ ‘Tales of the Forgotten Future,’ ‘Engram Sepals,’ ‘The Two Minutes to Zero Trilogy’ – but never quite like this. The main difference is that ‘Prolix Satori’ is both open-ended and ongoing with a variety of thematic focuses instead of a single, centralized one. As the series title suggests, it will include films that are very, very short (under a minute) and ones that are feature length. ‘Prolix Satori’ will also contain various sub-series: this program offers several films from ‘The Couplets’ (‘Wednesday Morning Two A.M.,’ ‘Sugar Slim Says,’ and all three ‘Nimbus’ films). ‘The Couplets’ will generally, but not exclusively, organize themselves around the pairing of various pop songs, and just as in the songs’ lyrics, around the theme of romantic love.” – Lewis Klahr
2008, 14:45 min, digital video
Selected by Film Comment magazine as one of the best films of 2008.
“It’s hard to believe that ‘False Aging’ is less than 15 minutes long, given how powerfully it evokes passing decades punctuated by muffled explosions of longing and regret. A button revolves around a clock–and the world moves with it. Klahr shares Joseph Cornell’s alchemical genius, but his collaged reveries cast deeper shadows and offer little magical protection from death and disappointment. The soundtrack draws on ‘The Valley of the Dolls,’ Jefferson Airplane, and Lou Reed and John Cale’s ‘Songs for Drella.’ As Cale channels Warhol, recounting a nightmare involving a snowy park under the stairs and anxieties about troubles real and imagined, a blond man peers at cityscapes, a skeletal hand snatches a fortune, and no-longer-redeemable trading stamps flutter by.” – Kristin M. Jones, “Terra Incognita: Unknown Pleasures From Around the World,” Film Comment, January/February 2009.
The Nimbus Trilogy
Nimbus Smile, 2009, 8:30 min, digital video
Nimbus Seeds, 2009, 8:30 min, digital video
Cumulonimbus, 2010, 9:30 min, digital video
“Three romantic entanglements play out in the three ‘Nimbus’ videos, which extend Klahr’s interest in constructing almost legible narratives — but doing so in formalist terms that complicate and enhance the traditional pleasures of stories. The trilogy’s closer, ‘Cumulonimbus,’ is a movingly mature account of grief with a puckish sting in its tail.” – Chris Stults, Film Comment
Sugar Slim Says
2010, 7:00 min, digital video
Music: “Lump” and “Like a Nurse” by Marc Anthony Thompson, performed by Chocolate Genius, from the album “Swansongs”
Same address, different buildings. “Put the rope in the can.” Mark Anthony Thompson (aka Chocolate Genius Incorporated) and I became friends because our sons were classmates. He played me his new album and I showed him some of my recent films and we got excited about collaborating. This is the result. – Lewis Klahr
Wednesday Morning Two A.M.
2009, 6:30 min, digital video
Deep Night – what the mind refuses to grasp the body understands. – Lewis Klahr
Tiger Award winner for Short Film at the 2010 International Film Festival, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
“Wednesday Morning Two A.M.” has been enthusiastically received, perhaps not only because it’s among [Klahr’s] most visually ravishing works, but also because it’s one of the most hopeful.” – Chris Stults, Film Comment
2009, 23:00 min, digital video
In Greek mythology Lethe is the underworld river from which the dead drink to forget their life on earth. “Lethe” is the first film in a possible trilogy of mythologically inspired pieces with female protagonists. – Lewis Klahr
“A straightforward narrative film by Klahr’s standards, ‘Lethe’ is a pulpy melodrama that incorporates sci-fi B-movie elements into a story straight out of a Vincente Minnelli women’s picture. It also functions as one of Klahr’s most sophisticated enactments of the intertwining of Thanatos and Eros, as if the inanimate materials that he is bringing back to life wish to return to their natural state of dead calm.” – Chris Stults, assistant curator of film/video, The Wexner Center for the Arts.

At least six dead in Iraq attacks
Gunmen killed at least six people in a spate of attacks across Iraq on Sunday, including a suicide car bombing at a checkpoint in the northern province of Kirkuk, security officials said. A bomber slammed his explosives-filled car into the checkpoint where a group of youngsters had gathered to be taken to a police recruitment centre, Kirkuk deputy chief of police Major General Torhan Yussef told AFP.
Three people were killed and six injured when a roadside bomb blasted a minibus in the village of Al-Murjana, 100 kilometres northwest of Baquba, the capital of Diyala province, police said.
In the capital itself, gunmen killed Brigadier General Adel Abbas, a senior officer in the interior ministry's criminal investigation department, as he was driving to work, security officials said. Abbas was killed near his home in Baghdad's Hail Adel neighbourhood, the officials said, adding that his driver was wounded.
Gunmen also tried to kill Ghasan Ridha, a director in the finance ministry, by planting a bomb in his car in Baghdad. Ridha was wounded in the attack.
In Baghdad's Waziriyah neighbourhood, seven people including three Iraqi soldiers were hurt when their patrol was hit by a roadside bomb near the Turkish embassy, security officials said. And in the north of the city, a similar attack targeting a police patrol wounded five more people including a policeman, they added.

VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
March 13, 2019
S. Printed 3/13/19--S.
Read the first time January 8, 2019.
To whom was referred a Bill (S. 252) to amend the Code of Laws of South Carolina, 1976, by adding Section 53-3-215 so as to designate the month of June of every year as , etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend that the same do pass:
KATRINA F. SHEALY for Committee.
TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY ADDING SECTION 53-3-215 SO AS TO DESIGNATE THE MONTH OF JUNE OF EVERY YEAR AS "SALKEHATCHIE SUMMER SERVICE MONTH" IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Whereas, in 1978, John Culp and a group of forty high school and college-aged United Methodist volunteers stepped into the lives of four families affected by some of the worst poverty in the United States of America. The team worked tirelessly for one week restoring dilapidated houses on the Sea Islands of South Carolina, and with just that one week of labor, the lives of these youth and the families they helped had been forever transformed; and
Whereas, now known as Salkehatchie Summer Service, this pioneering volunteer program brings together high school and college-aged youth, adult community leaders, and persons of different cultures to improve the homes of needy families and to reach out to these families and one another in friendship; and
Whereas, over the course of four decades, this once small group of volunteers has expanded into more than fifty camps and two thousand campers every summer. The Salkehatchie Summer Service is an autonomous mission supported entirely by its participants, the communities it serves, and the United Methodist Church Conference of South Carolina. Now, therefore,
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. Chapter 3, Title 53 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 53-3-215. The month of June of every year is designated 'Salkehatchie Summer Service Month' in South Carolina to promote this pioneering volunteer program that brings together high school and college-aged youth, adult community leaders, and persons of different cultures to improve the homes of needy families and to reach out to these families and one another in friendship."
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

JERUSALEM, July 27 – Israeli troops shot dead a Hamas fighter on Wednesday who the military said was responsible for an attack that killed a rabbi in a drive-by shooting in the occupied West Bank earlier this month.
The militant was killed in an overnight raid in the territory, during which residents of the Palestinian village of Surif, near the city of Hebron, reported lengthy exchanges of fire between Israeli forces and gunmen.
In a statement, the military said that security forces killed the man responsible for the July 1 attack that killed Rabbi Michael Mark. Mark was shot from a moving vehicle as he drove in his car.
Israeli forces also arrested three other militants.
Islamist group Hamas identified the man killed in the raid as Mohammad al-Fakih and it said he was a member of its armed wing, the al-Qassam Brigades. The house in which Fakih was hiding out was damaged during the fighting and then demolished by an Israeli bulldozer.
Since October, Palestinian street attacks have killed at least 33 Israelis and two visiting Americans. At least 205 Palestinians have been killed, 139 of whom Israel said were assailants. Others died during clashes and protests.

Lanett City Schools approves Internet Protection Act
Published 8:00 am Thursday, December 19, 2019
LANETT — The Lanett City Schools Board of Education renewed its policy Tuesday to keep children safe from inappropriate content while on the internet at school.
The U.S. Congress enacted the Children Internet Protection Act in December 2000, and it addresses concerns about internet access in schools and libraries.
Lanett City Schools Technology Director Whittany Nolen informed the board of education that any school or library that receives discounts for internet access through E-RATE, there are specific requirements. The amount of funds given to school districts through E-RATE is based on the number of free and reduced lunch students in the school district.
Email newsletter signup
Nolen said some guidelines must be in place to protect the children when they are using the internet.
School and libraries subject to the act are required to adopt policy addressing access by minors to inappropriate matter on the internet; the safety and security of minors when using electronic mail, chat rooms and other forms of direct electronic communications; unauthorized access, including so-called “hacking” and other unlawful activities; unauthorized disclosures, use and dissemination of personal information regarding minors; and restricting minors’ access to materials harmful to them.
Nolen said the school district has three separate filters for internet access to block anything harmful to students, even though the act requires one.
“We go a little above and beyond,” she said. “We also teach students what’s appropriate online behavior to prevent them from having any information hacked or shared online that shouldn’t.”

Gun Range Photos
Made a trip to the local gun range with my two brothers while visiting them over the 4th of July weekend. We typically don’t go home over the 4th of July but it worked out great with being able to spend more time together.
Got a chance to shoot several rifles and pistols and my camera, of course. Took my 100-400mm lens this time for the Battle Creek airshow, which also worked out well for the gun range. It was a blast shooting their guns but I also had lots of fun taking photos.
My first gun when I was in 7th grade was a .45 cal flintlock muzzle loader. My goal at a young age was have an extensive gun collection but my wife is pleased that I changed gears to photography, except for the cost.
Converted these to B&W using Nik Silver Efex Pro 2, in order to bring out the smoke and mood of the photos.

The treatment of both female and male infertility in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) has always played an essential role in China. In order to receive professional and satisfactory treatment, it is necessary to clarify the cause(s) of infertility according to western medicine and to submit a corresponding clinical result.
Relevant information such as menstrual history, hormone status, tube health, basal body temperature curve, spermiogram, accompanying diagnoses such as endometriosis, PCOS, fibroids etc are important information when it comes to adjusting treatment. In China, as in Taiwan, there is a close cooperation between Western medicine and TCM.
How is TCM treatment carried out if I want to have children?
Daily intake of Chinese or western herbs in the form of powder concentrates, herbal soups or tinctures according to the phases of the menstrual cycle. Before or during planned IVF/ICSI an individual diagnosis and corresponding TCM herbal recipe are made. Herbal therapy to increase sperm count and mobility is also carried out for male fertility disorders.
Some patients also require regular acupuncture therapy.
The duration of treatment is at least 3-6 menstrual cycles, depending on the western & eastern diagnosis of infertility.
Objectives: support and prepare for the planned IVF; complementary medical treatment of the causes of infertility, constitutional treatment.
Important: During the herbal therapy, the continuous measurement of the basal body temperature is necessary for the TCM therapist to adapt treatment.
We recommend you contact us if you are interested.

Duke of York - Imogen Sadler
The Duke of York
4-5 Gray’s Inn Square
In celebration of his wedding to Sarah Ferguson on 23 July 1986, the Duke of York was voted the honour of Freeman of the City of York by the City of York Council (‘the Council’). On 27 April 2022, by a unanimous vote, this honour was unceremoniously removed in the wake of the Duke of York’s out-of-court settlement with Virginia Giuffre in the US with councillors stating:
“The removal of this honorary title sends the right message that we as a city stand with victims of abuse”.
But how was it possible for the Council to do so decisively? To strip an individual of their peerage requires an Act of Parliament. A knighthood requires a recommendation to Her Majesty from the Honours Forfeiture Committee.
This article looks at the powers local authorities have to grant such honours, and how removal can be facilitated.
"What is a freeman?"
A freeman is described in the Oxford English Dictionary as:
“a person who has been given the freedom of a city or borough”
Nowadays, it can be viewed as a somewhat antiquated award and something of an eccentricity (for instance, Freemen of the City of London have the right to drive sheep across London Bridge). However, it is still very much a power that can be exercised by local authorities, with its legislative basis being found within section 249 of the Local Government Act 1972, which states that:
(1) A principal council may, by a resolution passed by not less than two-thirds of the members voting thereon at a meeting of the council specially convened for the purpose with notice of the object, confer the title of honorary aldermen or honorary alderwomen on persons who have, in the opinion of the council, rendered eminent services to the council as past members of that council, but who are not then members of the council.
This provision since 1987 has been amended by the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 with the new section 5 stating that:
(5) … a relevant authority may admit to be honorary freemen or honorary freewomen of the place or area for which it is the authority—
(a) persons of distinction, and
(b) persons who have, in the opinion of the authority, rendered eminent services to that place or area.
These provisions were not in force when the honour was awarded to the Duke of York, however the point remains the same: should the Council wish, it can exercise its discretion to grant this honour.
Interestingly, no provision is made in section 249 (or elsewhere) for a reversal of the admission to be an honorary freeman, and for such an honour to be removed. There are no requirements or particular criteria as to how this might come about, or even whether it is possible.
Indeed, it should be noted that on only one other occasion has an individual been stripped of a similar honour: Jimmy Saville posthumously lost his freedom of the City of Scarborough.
Is it impossible therefore, for such an honour to be removed?
Can this award be reversed?
It is not always necessary for a power to be explicit.
For instance, in R v. Bristol ex p Everett  1 WLR 92 Richards J held there was to be implied, in the Environmental Protection Act 1990, a power to withdraw an abatement notice, as being consistent with, and serving to promote rather than undermine, the legislative scheme, a finding which the Court of Appeal said,  1 WLR 1170, was clearly right.
Another intriguing potential answer is provided by the presumption against impossibility. To quote Craies on Legislation at 8.2.9, this is the presumption that in drafting legislation:
“the draftsman need not expressly excuse that compliance which is obviously impossible”.
This is a presumption which has been reinforced in case law, most recently in Winchester College v Hampshire County Council  EWCA Civ 431.
Here, Lord Dyson quoted section 346 of Bennion on Statutory Interpretation, 4th edition, page 969 and said:
“unless the contrary intention appears, an enactment by implication imports the principle of the maxim lex non cogit ad impossibilia (law does not compel the impossible)”:
It is obvious that someone once thought to be distinguished might, in the light of events or revelations, lose that distinction. This happened in the case of Anthony Blunt whose knighthood was removed on the revelation he had been spying for the Soviet Union.
To the objective viewer, it would seem impossible that Parliament would have legislated to disallow a local authority from ever removing such an honour, even if heinous crimes were committed. It would seem very odd indeed if, to take an extreme example, it was the intention of Parliament with regard to this legislation that a war criminal would not be able to have such an honour removed by the council that granted it.
It must be stressed this is an extremely unusual set of circumstances, and we are not likely to know whether such a precedent will be followed for a while. However, it will be intriguing to see, if other such cases do indeed whether other local authorities will follow a similar path to that of the Council.

I suggest serving these pulled pork breakfast burritos with a mug a strong cowboy coffee or a colorful tequila sunrise. Whatever makes you happy. Cause isn't that what Sundays are all about?

In this post we’re going to discuss making drawings to your new gadget you are trying to get a patent for.
Typically, having a physical item, the patent office will need you to have drawings to your item until you possess a working prototype. What exactly is the next step if you can’t draw a straight line? Well, today there are applications that may do your patent illustrations
The situation you find yourself in goes something like this. You’ve just invented the highest thing since sliced bread. You made some rough sketches and also written some of the patent application yourself. You’ve saved yourself lots of money by not hiring a lawyer. The only thing left to accomplish is prepare drawings to choose your patent application. But they’re no artist. Where do you turn?
Well, many inventors turn this part of the job to an expert draftsman on the price tag of $75 to $150 per sheet of patent drawings. If you have some of these the cost can also add in a rush.
Fortunately, with today’s technology, if you’re able to carry out the patent application yourself you can even carry out the drawings yourself too. You’re going to should find out some USPTO rules and also the learning curve is pretty steep, but the rewards will be more than well worth the effort. Besides spending less around the application itself you can also have the ability to prepare brochures for prospective manufacturers or customers. Also, because nobody knows your invention much better than you do, you will have the very best notion of what the drawings should look like. By doing your own drawings you don’t have to explain to someone else what your invention is about. The entire process of sending drawings forwards and backwards for corrections is eliminated. Finally, you should have the satisfaction of realizing that you probably did the entire patent process all on your own, which is quite an accomplishment.
There are numerous ways for you to make your drawings.
The traditional approach is with pen and ruler in grayscale. Even though this might seem traditional, it’s the least costly and is actually the way the patent office prefers them, nice simple. You are going to should find out basic drawing techniques to do this.
If color is necessary to accurately represent your invention then you can submit color drawings. If you intend to achieve this you will must file three groups of color illustrations. Then you have to file for a petition to describe why color is necessary. Finally, you pay a petition fee and can include a statement inside your application that it includes color drawings.
Another choice is photographs. These are rarely used, only in situations where a suitable instance of the invention isn’t likely with drawings.
Finally, there’s computer drawing software. The advantage of this process is that you simply do not have to concern yourself with drawing an upright line. This program can do it for you personally. Many drawing programs have 3 D image rendering which can make the drawing process not only easy but very professional looking. The downside is that a few of these programs can cost you hundreds of dollars.

Near the end of every calendar year, countless music geeks everywhere like me like look forward to spending hours deliberating on their own personal ‘best albums of the year’ lists. I thought that 2011 was a really great year for music, so putting my list together took more time than usual. Here it is.
Honorable Mentions: The Weeknd – House of Balloons, Beyonce – 4, Broncho – Can’t Get Past the Lips, The Roots – Undun
10. Jay-Z and Kanye West – Watch the Throne
Standout Tracks: Lift Off, Why I Love You
Two giants of the hip hop world came together and put together this highly anticipated collaboration in 2011, and it did not disappoint. This album is BIG: the production is big, the egos are big, and the guests (Beyonce, Frank Ocean, Mr. Hudson) are big. While it is excessive at times (See Ni***s in Paris), this album still exceeded my lofty expectations. Kanye and Jay-Z have a nice give and take. This was my favorite addition to the hip hop genre in 2011.
To hear Jay and Kanye West/ Similar Artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to The EnJ show (Thursdays 8-10)
9. Spirit is the Spirit – Mother Mountain E.P.
Standout Tracks: Sing/Dance/Run/Chant, Oh, Speckled Bird
I felt inclined to include some local music in this list, and KC/Lawrence’s Spirit is the Spirit was the obvious choice. They play an experimental folk music (think Fleet Foxes, except with a horn section). Mother Mountain features long, layered tracks. The 5+ minute Oh, Speckled Bird (my favorite on the album) effectively builds over several minutes into an eventful, noise filled climax. Spirit is the Spirit played in Manhattan during Aggie Fest last fall, and frequently perform in Kansas City/Lawrence. They are definitely one to keep an eye on.
To hear Spirit is the Spirit and other local artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to The Garage (Mondays 3-4)
8. Various Artists – Drive (Official Soundtrack)
Standout Tracks: College feat. Electric Youth – A Real Hero , Kavinsky – Nightcall, Desire – Under Your Spell
Not coincidentally, my favorite movie in 2011 also produced my favorite soundtrack of the year. The action flick starring Ryan Gosling featured some of the most beautiful electronic music of 2011. These tracks set a perfect backdrop for the ethereal driving scenes featured throughout the movie, and also effectively clashed with the extremely violent action sequences. My favorite song of 2011 (College’s A Real Hero) comes from this soundtrack.
To hear music from Drive and other movies on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to Music from the Movies (Thursdays 3-4)
7. tUnE-yArDs – W H O K I L L
Standout Tracks: My Country, Gangsta
Merrill Garbus’s tUnE-yArDs has always been a bit of an anomaly to me because I’ve never felt that I fully understand it. Part indie alternative, part electronic, part hip hop, her music has always been hard to pin down. However, there’s something about W H O K I L L that keeps me coming back. With an extremely catch electropop/rock background, and featuring undeniably cheesy lyrics (“What’s a boy to do if he’ll never be a Gangsta?”), this album is unbelievably likable. tUnE-yArDs remains near the top of my personal “must see live” list, as she performs mostly solo, looping drum beats, ukulele, and her voice.
To hear tUnE-yArDs and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to The Manhattan Project (Fridays 3-5) and Women Who Rock (Wednesdays 12-1)
6. Nodzzz – Innings
Standout Tracks: Heyday Past Heyday Due, Always Make Your Bed
Clocking in under 24 minutes and featuring a minimalistic lineup of two guitars and a small drum kit, I’m certainly not going to accuse Nodzzz of being overly ambitious with Innings. However, sometimes aiming for simplicity can play in a band’s favor. In my opinion, this San Francisco based noise pop/garage rock group produced the catchiest album of 2011. They have an uncanny ability to find useful hooks in their guitar and vocal work that keeps me coming back to their music again and again. I would be conservative in estimating that I have listened to this album from start to finish at least 50 times. This album proves that sometimes you don’t have to be too deep, you just have to keep listeners coming back.
To hear Nodzz and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to Low Fidelity (Tuesdays 3-4)
5. Iceage – New Brigade
Standout Tracks: You’re Blessed, Remember
There’s something special about a band that can completely capture your attention in concert when you’re not at all familiar with their music beforehand. Iceage definitely caught my eye (or ears, rather) this past summer at a show in Lawrence. I had gone to the Jackpot in Lawrence to watch Mouthbreathers (a terrific garage punk band hailing from Lawrence) play a show, but found myself completely captivated by Iceage and snatched up their album as soon as I could after the show. This dark punk album has since become one of my favorite albums released in 2011.
To hear Iceage and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to Low Fidelity (Tuesdays 3-4) and Full Throttle (Mondays 7-9)
4. Washed Out – Within and Without
Standout Tracks: Eyes Be Closed, Amor Fati
I discovered Chill Wave this past year. After embracing Neon Indian, Tori Y Moi, The XX, and others, this is the album that stood out. Many recognize Washed Out as the artist featured in the opening credits of the t.v. show Portlandia, but Within and Without proves that Ernest Greene has much more to offer. This album features some of the most beautifully layered electronic music that you’ll find anywhere. I find myself in the mood to listen to Washed Out regardless of the time of day, the weather or my mood. It’s that wonderful kind of music that seems to go with anything and everything.
To hear Washed Out and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune into The Manhattan Project (Fridays 3-5)
3. Thee Oh Sees – Carrion Crawler/The Dream
Standout Tracks – Carrion Crawler, Contraption/Soul Desert, The Dream
Being a huge garage rock fan, I always heavily anticipate any new album by one of John Dwyer’s many projects. With Carrion Crawler/The Dream, he has produced, in my opinion, his best yet. Thee Oh Sees’s music has changed quite a bit over the years, starting as a heavy punk band, then freak folk, and now the garage rock/punk that is featured on Carrion Crawler/The Dream. Unlike many other artists in the genre, Thee Oh Sees play long jams of garage punk, with many of the tracks clocking in at over 5 minutes. Catching Thee Oh Sees at the Granada in November was the highlight of my concert attendance in the past year, and this studio album also ranks as one of my favorites.
To Hear Thee Oh Sees and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune into Low Fidelity (Tuesdays 3-4)
2. Lykke Li – Wounded Rhymes
Standout Tracks: Sadness is a Blessing, Unrequited Love, Youth Knows No Pain
This past year I embraced numerous artists from Sweden: Robyn, Miike Snow, and, most notably, Lykke Li. Li plays a unique blend of electro pop and folk (think Miike Snow meets Sufjan Stevens) and she produced my second favorite album of 2011. Wounded Rhymes features both catchy, upbeat electronic pop tunes (Youth Knows No Pain) and heart wrenching ballads (Unrequited Love).
To Hear Lykke Li and similar artists on The Wildcat 91.9, tune in to Women Who Rock (Wednesdays 12-1), The Indie Rock Show (Fridays 11-1), and the Manhattan Project (Fridays 3-5)
1. F***ked Up – David Comes to Life
Standout Tracks: Queen of Hearts, The Other Shoe
A few years back, if you had told me that a hardcore punk/metal album was going to become one of my all time favorites, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. However, F***ked Up’s David Comes to Life has accomplished that feat. Featuring a unique storyline (English blue collar worker in the 70’s attempts to blow up the light bulb factory where he works with his girlfriend), this concept album features some of the most complex songwriting that I heard in 2011. F***ked Up has an ability like no one else in their genre to build tension in a heavy punk setting. While front man Damian Abraham’s vocals are often delivered in an abrasive scream, he finds a way to make it endearing. And while playing such a fast paced, the ear piercing guitar parts are still absolutely beautiful. While David Comes to Life certainly requires a lot of ‘work’ to appreciate, it pays off heavily and is one of the greatest albums to be released in recent memory.

Appleton woman uses knitting skills to create prosthetics for women
Cyndy Hanson of Appleton has not had cancer, nor has anyone in her family.
However, she is committed to making Knitted Knockers: special soft, light-weight breast prosthetics that are free for women who have undergone mastectomies, lumpectomies, radiation and reconstruction.
“It’s just one of those things that spoke to me,” said Hanson, 56, who heard about the project at a Hooks and Needles meeting.
“It fits everything I was looking for in retirement,” she added. “I love having the idea of having to knit or crochet whenever or wherever. It was more so about doing something that was going to help people. I can do something to help people and, at the same time, I meet cool people.”
Knitted Knockers is based in Washington and provides materials to inspire and equip knitters to make the knockers for their own communities all over the country and world.
Hanson was so inspired that she started a Fox Valley chapter. In 2017, a woman in Green Bay also wanted to start a chapter so the two groups combined into Knitted Knockers of Northeast Wisconsin and have become a state provider for knittedknockers.org.
Hanson said the appeal to this prosthetic is the material.
“They are lighter,” said Hanson. “They’re comfortable.”
The material can be washed and allows a woman to feel comfortable and not sticky or sweaty. These also help women with their self-esteem and confidence following a procedure, said Hanson.
“For somebody who has nothing and then puts something like this in, it makes them feel better about themselves,” she said. “It’s all about making women feel better.”
And being free is an added benefit.
“So many people probably cannot afford to buy the prosthetics that are available for them,” said Hanson. “I think this particular item is just what they are looking for and they just don’t know it yet.”
Volunteers create the items and Hanson collects them.
Hanson’s group connects with doctors, oncologists, hospitals and cancer centers to spread the word about Knitted Knockers.
“We are looking for people who can use them,” she said. “They don’t know what is available.”
Hansen said it takes about five hours to make one set of knitted knockers. Her goal is to make four pair a month. The group has given away about 200.
“We are looking to grow that,” said Hanson. “There have to be a lot more women out there who could use them. The more we can get the word out to people like that, the better.”
Sharon Prevost of Green Bay said Hanson has a beautiful, large heart.
“Cyndy is always the first to volunteer her time whether it’s knitting knockers, organizing the inventory of our group, mailing requests, fundraising for expenses for mailers and supplies, using any resources she has to better promote Knitted Knockers and to help as many ladies as possible,” said Prevost.

Allergy seems to be a common condition and could affect many people around the world, especially in developing countries. However, recent studies have shown that allergies can increase the risk of cancer.
In particular, a new study conducted by researchers from the University of Washington Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center found that patients with allergies may have a higher risk of developing leukemia than those who do not suffer from allergies.
The study involved more than 64,000 patients who were asked about symptoms of allergies and asthma. The patients were then evaluated 7 years later to see if it they had been diagnosed with blood cancer. (more…)

Labour said the volunteering idea was a “re-announcement” from 2008.
Under the Conservatives’ volunteering plans, a new law would be passed requiring public sector employers and companies with more than 250 employees to give staff up to three days a year to do voluntary work.
Employers would cover the cost.
Communities Secretary Eric Pickles said the move would “enhance productivity” but suggested that employers worried about the impact it would have on their operations may be able to opt out.
“Nobody is forcing anyone to volunteer. Nobody is forcing companies to organise this volunteering if it causes problems to the company,” he told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme.
“We expect people to have a bit of give-and-take on this as we expect people to have a bit of give-and-take with regard to annual leave.”
He rejected suggestions it could prove a financial burden for smaller firms and a logistical headache for organisations such as the NHS which would have to fill in behind those taking time off.
“It would be worked out according to patterns of work and to ensure it did not cause inconvenience to the health service,” he said.
