WACV Earth Day 2015

Today is Earth Day. All across the globe, countries and governments are “celebrating” the Earth. All across the globe politicians and their followers are using the day to push their agenda of climate communism. Making us all feel bad for our so-called deadly “carbon emissions”. When everyone knows that plants LOVE carbon dioxide, and we have a very synergetic relationship between plants and humans.

Libertarian Party of Canada on Bill C-51

Tim Moen leader of the Canadian Libertarian Party has released this statement on the new “anti-terror” bill C-51. The only principled and courageous stance considering all the mainstream dinosaur parties are in favouir one way or another. The Conservative government, with the support of the Liberal Party, is seeking to pass new anti-terror legislation with Bill C-51. The Libertarian Party of Canada opposes this legislation whole heartedly. Although everyone wants to stop terrorism, this bill is a huge step backwards.

Articles in culture and society

Documentary: The Lon Nol government

The Lon Nol's government struggling to survive on its own feet. The Cambodian elites were betrayed by American's false promises.

Khmer Romanization

| | | | |

Khmer romanization refers to the representation of the Khmer (Cambodian) language using letters of the Latin (Roman) alphabet. Romanization of Khmer is usually applied to Khmer proper nouns such as names of people and geographical names as in a gazetteer.

Khmer Numerals

| | | | |

Khmer numerals are characters used for writing numbers for several languages in Cambodia, most notably Cambodia's official language, Khmer. They date back to at least the oldest known epigraphical inscription of the Khmer numerals in 604 AD, found on a stele in Prasat Bayang, Cambodia, located not far from Angkor Borei.

Khmer Grammar

| | | | |

Khmer grammar is generally a Subject Verb Object (SVO) language with prepositions. Although primarily an isolating language, lexical derivation by means of prefixes and infixes is common.

Word order

Khmer Dialects

| | | | |

Dialects are sometimes quite marked. Notable variations are found in speakers from Phnom Penh (which is the capital city), the rural Battambang area, the areas of Northeast Thailand adjacent to Cambodia such as Surin province, the Cardamom Mountains, and in southern Vietnam.[4] The dialects form a continuum running roughly north to south. The speech of Phnom Penh, considered the standard, is mutually intelligible with the others but a Khmer Krom speaker from Vietnam, for instance, may have great difficulty communicating with a Khmer native to Sisaket Province in Thailand.

Khmer Script

| | | | |

The Khmer script (អក្ខរក្រមខេមរភាសា; âkkhârâkrâm khémârâ phéasa, informally aksar Khmer; អក្សរខ្មែរ) is used to write the Khmer language which is the official language of Cambodia.

Khmer Language

| | | | |

Khmer (ភាសាខ្មែរ), or Cambodian, is the language of the Khmer people and the official language of Cambodia. It is the second most widely spoken Austroasiatic language (after Vietnamese), with speakers in the tens of millions. Khmer has been considerably influenced by Sanskrit and Pali, especially in the royal and religious registers, through the vehicles of Hinduism and Buddhism. It is also the earliest recorded and earliest written language of the Mon-Khmer family, predating Mon and by a significant margin Vietnamese. As a result of geographic proximity, the Khmer language has influenced, and also been influenced by; Thai, Lao, Vietnamese and Cham many of which all form a pseudo-sprachbund in peninsular Southeast Asia, since most contain high levels of Sanskrit and Pali influences.

Vietnamese House in Cambodia

| | |

Vietnamese people have been moved to live in Cambodia long time ago until now. Most of them are dealing small business, crop and vegetable, fishing; some of them are successful businessman. They believe in Buddhism as Chinese people do.

Modern Construction in Cambodian Cities

| | |

Today, in most cities of Cambodia, there are many constructions of tall building department store, and so on. Numerous projects are underway here, many involving thousands of luxury homes and apartments. Several are self-contained satellite cities, 10-15 kilometers from downtown Phnom Penh, but complete with their own shopping malls, supermarkets, schools, hospitals and hotels.

Khmer House Construction

Bet House

Bet houses, were built without shoulders to join the main rafters of the porch and the roof, both feet of the rafters of the porch and the roof are joined at the top of the main rafter of the roof near the top of the center pillars.

5 Things to Look for When You Hire a Landscape Service

Excellent landscape services can make or break your garden. So if you don’t want your backyard to turn into a mess or don’t want to have to deal with the inconvenience and hassle of dealing with sketchy, incompetent contractors, here are some tips to help you hire the right one:

Check on the basics

Make sure you get a contractor who’s trained in the work, who has the skill and experience not just to get the job done but to get it done right. Be wary of taking on contractors who offer their services door to door. Good contractors often have a packed schedule. If the contractor is aggressive and putting pressure on you to hire him, then that’s just another reason to say no.

Find someone dedicated

Experience, while important, isn’t the only thing that matters. A good contractor or design company offering landscape services will fully dedicate time to your project, says HGTV. So if yours seems too busy, then that just means you aren’t a high-priority client. You’ll be better off elsewhere.

Consider communication

Do you and your contractor communicate well with each other? Misunderstandings can cause mistakes and costly delays. If you think your contractor isn’t listening to your or taking your wishes into account, it might be better if you look for another one instead.

Asks about what you like

A good landscape contractor will ask you about what you like, what kind of feelings you associate with the garden being built and what kind of space you want to see. All that goes into creating a garden that meets all your needs.

Helps you save

Go for a contractor who understands your needs and budget, offering you cost-effective solutions whenever possible. If your contractor gives you value for your money, then you know you’ve found the right one.

Michael Pick Of WordPress.TV

January 28th, 2009
WordPress Weekly

On the evening of Tuesday, January 27th, I had the pleasure to converse with Michael Pick, an employee of Automattic and also the guy behind the newly launched WordPress.TV. WordPress.TV is a new website which aggregates all sorts of WordPress content in video form. The site has already made a name for itself by showcasing many of the videos from recent WordCamps. Here is just a sampling of what we discussed during the show. Here are some of the questions we covered on the show: What is the purpose of WordPress.TV? How did WordPress.TV reach fruition? Will WordPress.TV feature content created by people other than Automattic? What do you plan on doing with videos that seemingly disappear? Can someone suggest a video that is produced with a language other than English? If there were any plans to let the videos be downloadable or even a podcast? Are videos released […]

P2P Is Not Infringement

In its order, the court delivers the most decisive rejection yet of the recording industry's "making available" theory of infringement (i.e., if someone could have downloaded it from you, you've violated copyright, even if no one ever did). Citing to the recent ruling in London-Sire v. Doe 1, the court concludes that "[t]he general rule, supported by the great weight of authority, is that infringement of the distribution right requires an actual dissemination of either copies or phonorecords." (Full Story at EFF)

So it's not illegal, but ethical - that's another question.

Friday - Checking In

Today is the day we are supposed to be leaving. All of Emily's new Keto friends have gone, but we, unfortunately, will be staying until tomorrow morning.

Emily had 1 low blood sugar last night, and 1 low blood sugar this morning, so they want to watch her for one more day. Endocrine has also been in with concerns about a low Vitamin D level. My feeling is that they seem to be saying that they are uncomfortable with her continuing on the diet because of the low blood sugars and vitamin D level. I'm not very patiently waiting for them to come back.

Emily did have 2 clusters of spasms last night, and so far 1 today.

Kim said...

Oh no! Hope the two of you get home soon and Em's blood sugars behave!!! We need to get together when you get home and settled again. It has been too long!

Marie said...

Hi Aimee and Emily,

We hope that they don't decide Emily has to come off of the diet. We hope everything regulates back for her!!

Marie, Tom, and Gracie

Round and round and I found my wallet

Working on the NZC can take unexpected turns and also produce obvious results. Sometimes it takes a little innovation to rediscover something we are already doing. We have had a few meetings on values with the NZC. With lots of thought it's agreed that ownership is the most important thing for our staff, community and kids too. But the reality is that the teachers should make the decisions on curriculum as they are the deliverers, distributors and facilitators and the community and kids are the willing participants.
So lets get on with it.
We have refined and articulated our values that reflect our joint philosophy and are now looking at how to shift these to classroom practice. The thing that needs to be acknowledged is that learning needs to be the highest priority, therefore mucking around teaching a value a week or a value a term, is going to leave you vulnerable when it comes to getting the time to teach.
Most great leaders that I have followed and admired actually lead with actions. If we truly want our values to come through in our children then we should teach hard, power the work into the kids, and lead by example, they will acknowledge you as a great person and a great teacher. I think too often teachers who are known as a "cool teacher" can be slack educators. You've got to be both.
So it seems I have come full circle. Facta Non Verba - deeds not words. Vision to Action.
We are going to weave our values and beliefs around our content. Simple! Obvious! Action!

Great to see the clarity of your thinking Luke. I agree it's the thoughtful actions that matter - too often we allow ourselves to be tied up in rhetoric and lose the energy to actually build the motor that sends us on our way.

An Ending is a Beginning

The Garden Barrel has witnessed another ending.  The Golden Sweet Peas have traveled through their seasons from the sweet round leaves of  tender seedling, the wildly grasping tendrils and trembling bloom of adolescence, slowly plumping golden pods of middle age, and finally the glorious ripening of full maturity.  It is now time for them to give way, leaving dying roots behind to loosen and enrich the soil for the next crop and providing carefully saved seeds for later needs.

Like everything in nature, this ending is also the beginning.  When the peas began to bloom, I nestled a snap bean seed or two in each of their pockets to keep them company.  The beans are now leaving their own childhood, bearing flawless purple blooms like a proud badge of maidenhood.  Soon tiny green husks will push their way from blooms grown pale and ragged, growing into sweet snap beans.  Like the peas, their season will also end and seeds saved from the best and strongest plants.

Thus life spirals on....

Candles for men with smells that men love.

Men need time to relax and unwind just as much as ladies do. But where does a man go to get a candle that has a scent that is just right for that rough and tumble fellow. Well look no further tough guys in need of aroma therapy. Now, not just one but two companies sell candles geared directly towards a man’s man.

The current leaders in the industry are  and

Original Man Candle offers a wide variety of smells ranging from new car smell to bacon and even going as far as to offer road kill for who really dig the funk. They showcase their wares on a much designed website sporting lots of fancy graphics and a standard web shopping cart.

However, Man-cans really goes for that “I don’t give a crap about my appearance” look for their website making a true appeal to the man who cares not about appearance or how he smells. And although the site could be a bit more polished, you have to cut the owner some slack as he is only 13-years-old. Hart Main, CEO of Man Cans, offers the following “delightful” scents: Grandpa’s Pipe, Campfire, and Cracker Jacks.

The one thing that sets Hart apart from his competition, besides being 13, is that all of his candles are literally in old cans. Hart recycles soup cans for his product which we can only assume helped to inspire the name. In addition to Harts eco-friendly approach to business, he also actively seeks soup kitchens where he donates soup to in order and only asking for the cans in return.

In addition to this new trend in man candles, Mancentirc spas are sprouting up throughout the country. These spas offer such services as bacon grease facials and an apple pie room. It is unclear what the apple pie room exactly offers but may speculate that the room was inspired by a scene from the movie American Pie.

Vengeance Calls In Ghost Rider Promo For Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 4

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has become one of those shows that fans seem to either love or hate, but the addition of Ghost Rider to the upcoming fourth season seems to have everyone interested. It helps of course that the ABC series has a later timeslot, something many fans hope will lead to a tonal shift that brings the show more in line with the likes of Daredevil and Jessica Jones.

Whether that happens or not remains to be seen, but the Spirit of Vengeance showing up this season (even if it isn’t the version of the character that the vast majority of fans would have liked to see in the Marvel Cinematic Universe) is a very big deal, and something which promises to drastically alter the status quo for Agent Coulson and his team.

We still don’t know an awful lot about what to expect from Robbie Reyes, but based on the new promo for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. that we see above, he’s clearly struggling to handle the burden of having this demonic force in his life. Also, while it’s already been mentioned here and there, the fact that this video seems to make it clear that he’s definitely not an Inhuman will surely be welcomed by fans.

Like Agent Carter – which was cancelled after two seasons – Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. isn’t exactly setting the ratings on fire, so the addition of Ghost Rider could be a necessity if the series hopes to reach a fifth year. Assuming he’s handled the right way though, this really could be something special and lead to the characters having a very different set of adventures moving forward.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns on September 20th. Tell us, are you excited to see Ghost Rider in action? Let us know by commenting below!

Malaysia Islamic body bans Yoga for Muslims

Yoga is a form of exercise that has found many fans and devoted practitioners all over the world. It has developed many variants as well, and the number of people practising Yoga all over the world would number in the 10's of millions. However, Yoga has derived from Hindu practices (or more accurately, Yoga developed at the same time as the early Hindu religion, and has been seen as linked together). However, this is not necessarily so, and a number of people have shown how one can enjoy the benefits of Yoga without seeming to undergo the Hindu practices. However, this has not stopped Islamic and Christian denominations from rejecting Yoga, as this Malaysian Islamic body did:

Malaysia's top Islamic body on Saturday ruled against Muslims practicing yoga, saying it had elements of other religions that could corrupt Muslims. The National Fatwa Council's non-binding edict said yoga involves not just physical exercise but also includes Hindu spiritual elements, chanting and worship.
The Malaysia fatwa reflects the growing strain of conservatism in Malaysia, which has always taken pride in its multi-ethnic population. About 25 percent of Malaysians are ethnic Chinese and 8 percent ethnic Indians, mostly Hindus. The Fatwa Council took up the yoga issue after an Islamic scholar last month expressed an opinion at a seminar that it was un-Islamic. But yoga teacher Suleiha Merican, who has been practicing yoga for 40 years, called yoga "a great health science" and said there is no religion involved. "We don't do chanting and meditation. There is no conflict because yoga is not religion based," Merican, 56, told The Associated Press.

This is another example where a religious opinion has prevented something beneficial from happening. There is no logical reason, instead, it is more about some apprehensions.

jACKEt's Fourth Dimension Pocket

jACKEt's Oekaki Blog ジャーケトのお絵かきブログ

Again posting a few photos that highlight my day today. The rest can be found at my Picasa account

Today i took a tour of the Toyota Kaikan. Basically, a factory tour where they made Prius, Camry, and Premio. The tour took place inside the Tsutsumi Plant. There's also a museum at the main building, and where the tour started.

This is the oldest looking bus stop i have ever seen. Notice the working rotary phone in the corner. I have never seen a working one before that was not part of some exhibit.

Here's the english website for Toyota Kaikan. You have to make a reservation online if you want to take a tour to the factory. It's a very interesting place to visit, especially if you are into cars. I also really recommend taking a taxis to Toyota Kaikan once you reach Toyota-shi (Toyota City), since there are no signs anywhere to indicate your destination. It is especially bad if you don't know any Japanese, kanji or kana. So i definitely recommend directly taking a taxis there; even though it costs more, but at least you will get their easily with no trouble.

Here's a robot that plays the trumpet. You've probably seen this many times on TV before.
Too bad they don't allow any photography at the actual working factory. That was interesting because it had robots welding cars. When you see them at work, you just can't help thinking what would happen if the robots started a rebellion, or it can remind you of Wall E. The rest are just people assembling and testing the cars before they're shipped off to be sold.

After going to Toyota shi, i went to Kanayama because there's a Jusco there. Only went there because my mom wanted to, and i wanted to buy quality cheap socks XDDD i tend to buy Converse socks. Had a tomato cheese omurice at the Aeon Mall food court at around 4:30 pm. Bought some Mister Donut donuts there too, since they were having a summer festival sale.

In the end this is what i had for dinner.

THE DAMN BESTASS DONUTS IN THE WORLD!!!!!! can't compare to Krispy Kreme or anything i had ever had in my life.

Reason why i love them so much, and especially this kind is because 1) it's matcha (green tea) flavour, covered in matcha frosting, and the dough part is filled with matcha flavour too. 2) The most important reason to me, it the texture of the dough. It's like those mochi bread, kind of slightly chewy, like it's made with mochi powder or glutinous rice. I'm a glutton for gluten -___-;;

Love the main mascot of Mister Donut, Pon de Lion.

Another one of the many donut-animal hybrid mascots of Mister Donut.

Preview: Tomorrow i'm leaving Nagoya by Shinkansen (bullet train) for Tokyo.

As I was cleaning out my closet today I found an old skirt that I decided to make into an impromptu dress for Natalie.  Using a ribbon and a few safety pins Natalie was soon wearing her new princess dress.  Gary thought she looked so pretty that he did a quick photo shoot in front of our Japanese Quince.

In 1948, Walter J. “Doc” Daugherty of the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society proposed that an annual West Coast convention be started for West Coast fans who couldn’t afford to travel east each year. The first Westercon was held in September, 1948. It was a one-day event with an attendance of 77. It wasn’t until 1951 that the Westercon became a weekend-long event, settled into the July 4th holiday and began traveling to different cities.

Our History
First Baptist Church has a rich history in West Plains. The original congregation was established in 1884 when a vacationing Baptist preacher from Memphis agreed to hold a revival, which resulted in the organization of four new churches of various denominations. Twenty-four of these new Christians joined together to form First Baptist Church. Due to continued growth throughout the next 126 years, the congregation constructed and reconstructed facilities at the 202 Walnut Street campus to enable the ministries of FBC to prosper.

Our current main facility was erected in 1995, and our most recent addition is the Multi-Purpose South Campus a short walk away on Grove Street, which is used for the “ECHO” Wednesday Night Youth Program and various special events.

Fauntleroy 591 results

FERRY FIX: Fauntleroy changes made a big-picture difference, task force told

(Draft version of the poster you’ll see promoting advance ticket purchases)

By Tracy Record
West Seattle Blog editor

Washington State Ferries is going ahead with the changes it tried at the Fauntleroy dock for four days last month, after presenting the test results it to its Triangle Route Task Force.

The pilot project might not have looked or felt different to individual ferry users. But in the big picture, a big difference was made, WSF said.

The task force, meeting Tuesday at Fauntleroy Church, also heard even bigger news: WSF expects to start selling tickets by phone before month’s end.

A guest as the meeting began was State Sen. Sharon Nelson, introduced by WSF’s government-affairs liaison John Vezina as representing “two-thirds of the Triangle route.” She gave the committee members a general message of support.

She began by saying that WSF’s work with legislators had become so much more collaborative in recent years, and that she thought putting together a task force about this route “made so much sense.” She talked about the diverse ridership and promised “I will support you every which way I can … I know there’ll be hiccups. … We’re in this together. … We’ll see how the implementation goes.”

She left “to catch the 5:10.”

WEST SEATTLE SALMON: Fauntleroy Creek finales for fry releases, smolt monitoring

(Nancie Hernandez with Salmon in the Schools – Seattle, leads Concord second graders as they explore habitat near Fauntleroy Creek. Photos by Mark Ahlness)

Two seasonal salmon milestones have just been reached at Fauntleroy Creek, Judy Pickens reports:

On Wednesday, Fauntleroy Creek volunteers hosted the last of 700+ students who visited Fauntleroy Park over the past five weeks for salmon releases.

(Concord International students leave Fauntleroy Park after the last of 19 salmon releases at Fauntleroy Creek)

They brought 1,800 coho fry reared since January in area schools through the Salmon in the Schools program.

This week also marked the end of monitoring smolts migrating out to Fauntleroy Cove. Since mid-March, twice-daily checking of upper and lower traps documented that 32 coho smolts had survived their year in the creek, up from 19 in 2016. They’ll put on weight in nearshore habitat, then head to open water before returning to spawn in two years.

The next big seasonal event: Volunteers will watch for returning spawners this fall. Seven showed up last year – after zero in 2015, 19 in 2014, zero in 2013, and a record 274 counted in 2012.

DONATING, DELECTABLY: Taste of West Seattle 2017 sets record

(WSB photos by Patrick Sand)

Last night’s Taste of West Seattle at The Hall at Fauntleroy raised more money for the West Seattle Helpline than any of its predecessors – that’s the word today from Helpline executive director Chris Langeler, who says the tally is $70,000 “and still counting!” We stopped by for a few photos. A highlight of The Taste is the chance to vote on your favorites.

The team from The Westy (photo above) won Best Pour; in the other two voting categories, Best Taste went to Fresh Bistro, and Best Sweet went to repeat winner Stuffed Cakes. Other scenes from The Taste:

This year’s title sponsor was Metropolitan Market, also dishing up tomato and freshly pulled mozzarella on garlic crostini for Taste-goers, who get unlimited food and drink for the price of admission, which goes to help Helpline provide emergency assistance that often keeps people from becoming homeless. The event of course is powered by volunteers – like Frances:

If you were looking for fine wine at The Taste, you would have found Viscon Cellars – below, Susan Viscon and Ben Viscon:

Back to the food – Christie, Ruth, and Leslie from Dream Dinners brought Gaucho Pork Tenderloin with peach salsa:

And from Endolyne Joe’s, Andrea and Jon-Paul were there with pulled-pork sliders:

Delia and Cheryl from Pecos Pit, meantime, were serving up Frito Pie:

More than 40 food and beverage providers participated this year. There was music, too – piano player Derek Richards:

Helpline director Langeler has words of gratitude: “”We are so grateful for the restaurants, the volunteers, our sponsors, and everyone who joined us last night for the 12th Taste of West Seattle! We raised enough funds to help more than 200 families stay safely housed while they recover from crisis. We are so lucky to be part of our wonderful West Seattle community–thanks to everyone for supporting the West Seattle Helpline! See you at Taste 2018!”

(Of the participants mentioned above, The Westy, Metropolitan Market, Viscon Cellars, Dream Dinners, Endolyne Joe’s, and Pecos Pit are WSB sponsors.)

FERRY UPDATES: Fauntleroy-Vashon-SW back to 3 boats tomorrow; Triangle task-force update

Two Fauntleroy-Vashon-Southworth ferry-route notes tonight.

3-BOAT SERVICE TO RETURN WEDNESDAY: Washington State Ferries is putting the new ferry Chimacum into service early to help alleviate the current boat shortage. It’ll go onto the Seattle-Bremerton run so that Sealth can become the third boat on the Fauntleroy-Vashon-Southworth run. This is scheduled to happen first thing tomorrow morning.

TRIANGLE ROUTE IMPROVEMENTS: WSF’s Hadley Rodero shares an update on last week’s four-day test of tollbooth changes as part of the Triangle Task Force project:

We completed the pilot from May 15-18 as planned. After direct observation and a preliminary review of the data, we are cautiously optimistic.

On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, we saw smoother operations and what we believe to be more efficient use of the dock under your recommended procedures (more to come once we look at the numbers). Last Wednesday was tough for customers and staff alike, with long wait times and space left on boats. We think this was due to several factors. We didn’t communicate as well within the pilot team or use the dock as efficiently as other days. There was an unexpected mix of traffic (lots of Vashon at an unusual time). Customers are still learning the process (had to back a lot of people up because they tried to pull past the tollbooth). We also had the typical disruptions such as a car parked in the ferry line after “no parking” time, and a large truck blocking two holding lanes with a poor parking job.

Overall, customer feedback was mixed. Some people said they liked it, others disliked it, and there were a lot of people wishing for the by-pass.

Next steps: We’re reviewing the data and collecting another round of baseline data when things are back to “the old way” this week. We aim to have an official conclusion and next steps within a week.

The community task force on the Triangle project also has set its next meeting dates – open to the public, so if you’re interested:

June: Tuesday, June 6, 4:30 – 7:00 p.m.

July: Wednesday, July 12, 4 – 7 p.m. (terminal site visit and walk-through)

August: Thursday, August 10, 4:30 – 7:00 p.m.

September: Thursday, September 14, 4:30 – 7:00 p.m.

All except July 12th will be at the Fauntleroy Church Fellowship Hall (9140 California SW).

West Seattle weekend scene: Fauntleroy Schoolhouse centennial ‘group hug’

Thanks to the Southwest Seattle Historical Society for sharing the “group hug” photo by Jean Sherrard from today’s centennial celebration at the Fauntleroy Schoolhouse! The building housed Fauntleroy Elementary School until 1981 and is now home to Fauntleroy Children’s Center on the north end, The Hall at Fauntleroy on the south end, and other community organizations and small businesses inbetween. Watch for video from today’s celebration on the SWSHS website soon.

P.S. Next chance to be in a photo like this is another centennial – West Seattle High School is also celebrating its 100th anniversary, and this year’s All-School Reunion will include a “group hug” photo – 6:30 pm (gather at 6) Saturday, June 3rd – more info here.

FERRY TROUBLE: 2 boats on Fauntleroy-Vashon-SW, 1 on Seattle-Bremerton

May 21, 2017 12:59 pm
|    Comments Off on FERRY TROUBLE: 2 boats on Fauntleroy-Vashon-SW, 1 on Seattle-Bremerton
 |   Fauntleroy | Transportation | West Seattle news

Double trouble for Washington State Ferries on a sunny Sunday afternoon: The Fauntleroy-Vashon-Southworth run is on an emergency 2-boat schedule, and the cross-Sound situation was already stressed with the Seattle-Bremerton run down to one boat. Fauntleroy traffic is currently reported to be backed up about two hours, Vashon one and a half.

TRAFFIC ALERT: Crash response in Fauntleroy

4:32 PM: Thanks to the texter who reports a crash involving a motorcycle rider in Fauntleroy. Seattle Fire units are logged as responding to a crash in the 4300 block of Brace Point Drive. We’re told they’re in the westbound lane. A witness tells us the rider is sitting up, alert, and talking with medics. But avoid the area if you can.

4:37 PM: All SFD units have now cleared the scene.

Alki Elementary’s Tim Hannah: Longtime salmon teacher migrating into retirement

Thanks to Fauntleroy Creek steward Judy Pickens for the top photo and report (and headline!):

Today’s salmon release in Fauntleroy Park was the last for retiring fifth-grade teacher Tim Hannah. He’s spent most of his 28-year career at Alki Elementary and initiated the Salmon in the Schools rearing project there in 1992.

(Photo courtesy Karisa MacLachlan)
Alki’s release was No. 13 for Fauntleroy Watershed Council volunteers, with six more to go. By the end of the month, an estimated 750 students will have enriched the creek with about 2,200 coho fry.

After that, the next seasonal touchpoint for Fauntleroy Creek and its salmon happens this fall, when volunteers watch for spawners.

FAUNTLEROY SCHOOLHOUSE ‘GROUP HUG’: You’re invited to be in the picture!

May 10, 2017 6:40 pm
|    Comments Off on FAUNTLEROY SCHOOLHOUSE ‘GROUP HUG’: You’re invited to be in the picture!
 |   Fauntleroy | West Seattle history | West Seattle news

In a week and a half, on Sunday, May 21st, the Fauntleroy Schoolhouse celebrates its centennial. Part of the celebration will be a “group hug” photo like the ones organized in each of the past three years for the Log House Museum totem pole (2014), the Alki Homestead rescue (2015), and the Admiral Theater renovations (2016). Unlike those three, this one will not have hundreds of elementary schoolchildren in attendance – and while alums of the former Fauntleroy Elementary (1917-1981) have been invited, the Southwest Seattle Historical Society says everyone is invited to be in the photo. Here’s a video invitation:

The photo – to be taken by Jean Sherrard of “Now and Then” fame from a 26-foot-high Pacific Rim Equipment Rental scissor lift – is set for 11:30 am on May 21st, right after a flag-raising ceremony and a few brief speeches, and then the centennial celebration will continue until 3 pm, with a variety of activities – find out more here, and set your calendar to be there and celebrate an important part of West Seattle history!

FERRY TRAFFIC ALERT: Fauntleroy tollbooth changes to be tested for four days next week

That two-page flyer explains a test that Washington State Ferries will conduct with tollbooth procedures at the Fauntleroy ferry dock next week – Monday, May 15th, through Thursday, May 18th. It’s the next step in the process we’ve been covering since January, when WSF chose a citizen task force to help come up with “quick wins” aimed at reducing traffic backups and other delays, especially headed outbound from Fauntleroy in the afternoons and evenings. When the task force finished its first round of meetings in late March – as reported here – those “quick wins” were announced as a two-part plan, changing tollbooth procedures so four vehicles could be processed each minute instead of three, and a big public-information campaign to make sure everyone knows what’s going on (including encouraging ferry users to buy advance tickets).

They also agreed that the proposed changes should be tested in May before potential official implementation in June. So that’s what will happen next week – as detailed on the flyer above. WSF spokesperson Brian Mannion tells WSB that “WSF’s internal implementation team (comprised of experienced terminal staff, vessel crew and supervisors on the route), will be on site all this week to discuss the changes with WSF workers, drivers and passengers” before the test project starts next Monday.

West Seattle scene: Salmon-release season at Fauntleroy Creek

10:44 AM: Above, that’s Fauntleroy Creek volunteer Dennis Hinton with students from Genesee Hill Elementary, one of more than a dozen schools releasing salmon fry into the creek this spring. Before release season is out, creek steward Judy Pickens tells WSB, volunteers will have worked with about 750 students from all over our area. This is all a followup to a big day in January when volunteers delivered salmon eggs to local schools, who started learning about the life cycle by nurturing them until the fry are set free. More photos later!

11:54 AM: Added:

Shortly after arrival, there’s always a briefing. And of course, the stars of the show are along for the ride:

The GHES students also got to meet EarthCorps volunteers who are working this week in nearby Kilbourne Ravine:

HAPPENING NOW: Spring 2017 Recycle Roundup until 3 pm

April 23, 2017 10:17 am
|    Comments Off on HAPPENING NOW: Spring 2017 Recycle Roundup until 3 pm
 |   Environment | Fauntleroy | West Seattle news

(WSB photo)

Outside Fauntleroy Church (9140 California SW), the spring Recycle Roundup is in its second hour, with a steady stream of people dropping off items to be recycled through nonprofit 1 Green Planet. You’re invited to do the same – no charge – until 3 pm today. The friendly folks at the church Green Committee, who coordinate this twice a year, are hoping you can go sooner rather than later, so everyone can be processed as quickly as possible and there’s no last-hour backup.

P.S. Here again is the list of what you can and can’t recycle there today.

FERRY FIXES: Getting ready for future ‘quick wins,’ during a backed-up Friday in Fauntleroy

Another Friday afternoon/evening backup for drivers headed to the Fauntleroy ferry terminal. (One texter told us the line was past the Lincoln Park gas station by quarter past 3.) This time, though, it had official observers:

Washington State Ferries sent this explanatory announcement earlier in the afternoon:

Beginning at 3:00 pm (today), a team of WSF staff members will be at Fauntleroy terminal to observe traffic conditions and collect baseline data. Today’s traffic and data observation is the beginning of WSF’s internal process to help implement a series of “quick win” recommendations created by the Triangle Improvement Task Force citizen advisory group. The task force’s recommendations aim to speed up vehicle processing through the tollbooth. WSF and the task force aim to launch a pilot program this spring and roll out final changes in time for start of the summer schedule (June 25, 2017).

We’ve been reporting on that process, most recently last month, when the advisory group wrapped up the first phase of its meetings (background from WSF is here).

Since the meeting we covered, WSF has published the official report on how it plans to make the “quick wins” happen – see it here (PDF) and embedded below:

None of those changes have been made yet – today’s “observation” was a preparatory step, so the hours-long backup this afternoon/evening was the result of current procedures that have yet to be changed. We’ll continue to cover this, including updates when WSF decides how and when to start the “pilot” program.

REMINDER: Recycle Roundup this Sunday

Are you ready for the Recycle Roundup? The twice-yearly free dropoff event presented by Fauntleroy Church‘s Green Committee is this Sunday (April 23rd), 9 am-3 pm. So we’re reminding you again, in case you still have sorting to do. Here’s the list of what they will and won’t be accepting this time; here’s a map to the dropoff spot (9140 California SW).

Fauntleroy Way parking restriction expanding, and what else was discussed @ Fauntleroy Community Association

(UPDATED 3:06 PM with SDOT response on details of parking-change notification and sign installation)

Parking restrictions along a mile of southbound Fauntleroy Way, mostly alongside Lincoln Park, are expanding. We found out about that at last night’s Fauntleroy Community Association board meeting – but NOT because of any official briefing or other involvement; members, in fact, voiced displeasure with the idea.

Instead, the notification arrived as it had for some other area residents – via an SDOT-sent postal-mail postcard. (We asked SDOT this morning for a digital version – [added] see the PDF version here.) The postcard says that what is currently a 3-7 pm weekday prohibition on parking in the ferry-waiting zone, between SW Fontanelle and the terminal, will expand to 2-7 pm, and new signs will be installed soon.

(ADDED 3:06 PM: SDOT spokesperson Sue Romero tells WSB, “These mailers went out last Thursday and Friday (4/6 and 4/7) and were mailed to residents along Fauntleroy Way SW from SW Fontanelle to SW Barton St, and 1-2 blocks west. Sign installation is scheduled to begin tomorrow.”)

TRIANGLE IMPROVEMENT TASK FORCE: Their ‘quick wins’ for Fauntleroy-Vashon-Southworth ferry route

(August 2016 video showing one example of the problem the task force is hoping to fix)

By Tracy Record
West Seattle Blog editor

In hopes of averting another summer of ferry-traffic-related misery from Morgan Junction to the Fauntleroy ferry dock, the Triangle Improvement Task Force has finished its first phase of work with two potential “quick wins,” finalized at the volunteers’ fifth meeting last night:

#1 – Speed up the average Fauntleroy tollbooth processing rate during pm peak hours, from three vehicles a minute to four vehicles a minute.

#2 – Make sure as many ferry customers as possible know what’s being done and how they can help.

As they reviewed the plans, the task-force members got a surprise visit from Washington State Ferries’ new leader, assistant WSDOT secretary Amy Scarton, who took over last month after the retirement of Lynne Griffith, who was in charge when the task-force idea was hatched.

More on her visit later. First: Read More

PHOTOS: Fauntleroy Community Association grows, and celebrates, at annual Food Fest

Electing a board for the year ahead is part of what happens at the Fauntleroy Community Association‘s annual meeting. So the board gathered for our photo last night (the list is at our story’s end). The event had a triple-digit turnout, in part because of its other identity – the annual Food Fest, with samples from local providers. Ahead, photos from the night: Read More

SPRING 2017 RECYCLE ROUNDUP: See what you’ll be able to drop off this time

On the first day of spring, if you’re thinking “spring cleaning” … we have some information that might help. Just in, the list of what will and won’t be accepted at the spring edition of the always-popular Fauntleroy Church Recycle Roundupsee it here (PDF). The free-dropoff event is set for 9 am-3 pm Sunday, April 23rd (9140 California SW).

@ Fauntleroy Community Association: Food Fest on Tuesday; SDOT says no to RPZ change; other updates

The Fauntleroy Community Association‘s annual membership meeting – known as the Food Fest because of samples from local businesses – is Tuesday, and this week’s FCA board meeting brought lots of news ahead of it.

WHO’LL BE AT THE FOOD FEST: First, an update tonight from FCA president Mike Dey – Mayor Ed Murray and City Councilmember Lisa Herbold have confirmed they’ll attend. It starts at 6 pm Tuesday (March 21st) at The Hall at Fauntleroy (9131 California SW); free, but FCA invites members old and new to be ready to renew/join ($25/year).

DAYTIME RPZ REJECTED: Last fall, FCA asked SDOT to study parking in the existing Residential Parking Zone east of the Fauntleroy ferry terminal, where parking is currently restricted to permit holders between 2-5 am. The group’s concerns included Washington State Ferries employees parking in residential neighborhoods during the day and car-share vehicles. One week ago, SDOT replied to say its study found “not enough blocks meet the minimum threshold to make the requested changes to the existing RPZ.” Its letter said that they needed to find at least 10 blocks/20 blockfaces where parking was 75 percent occupied during their study; they found “approximately 6 blocks (7 blockfaces) that met the 75% threshold.” Read More

Fauntleroy Church ‘Worship Without Walls’ substitutes service for sermon

Thanks to Judy Pickens for the photo and report:

Some 140 members of Fauntleroy Church, United Church of Christ, left the sanctuary shortly after arriving Sunday morning for the congregation’s first “worship without walls” event.

Adults, children, and youth headed to four service projects: Packaging at Food Lifeline for area food banks, creating art kits for the parent-child home program at Southwest Youth & Family Services, assembling education supplies for distribution by Church World Service to refugee camps [photo], and training for Friend to Friend America’s program linking West Seattle volunteers with lonely elders.

According to education director and event coordinator Karyn Frazier, the morning was “a way to act out our love all at once by engaging in worshipful service in the wider community.”

P.S. In case you’ve been wondering, the church’s next Recycle Roundup is April 23rd – when it’s closer, we’ll publish the list of what will and won’t be accepted.

WEST SEATTLE UTILITY WORK: Here’s the next round of West Seattle neighborhoods getting new City Light poles

Seattle City Light has just gone public with its next round of locations for utility-pole replacements, in Gatewood, Upper Fauntleroy, Highland Park, and Burien. Embedded above (and also available on the SCL website) are five 2-page flyers for different areas, each one with its own map(s) – note that what you see above is the first of FOUR map pages, one every other page, so be sure to scroll through or check the SCL website directly; below, the announcement from SCL:

Starting in mid-to-late March 2017, Seattle City Light’s contractor, Magnum Power LLC, will be replacing aging utility poles in parts of its service territory. This project will enhance electrical reliability by replacing older poles in the system. The installation of new poles, wire and equipment relocation is an important investment in infrastructure.

Crews will be working in the following areas:

· SW Elmgrove St to SW Sullivan St (east of California Ave SW)
· SW Holden St to SW Southern St (west of 35th Ave SW)
· SW Thistle Street to SW Henderson St (west of 35th Ave SW)
· SW Kenyon St to SW Trenton St (east of Delridge Way SW)
· SW 122nd St to SW 126th St (west of 1st Ave S)

Highlights from the project:

· The entire project is anticipated for completion by the end of 2017. Daily work hours are from Monday through Thursday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Crews may be working in other areas before transitioning to these construction areas.

· The new poles will be placed alongside pre-existing poles. They will meet standard heights and widths required for overhead power line construction. This may mean that poles in your area will be slightly taller and approximately two inches wider than existing poles.

· Once the electrical equipment is relocated, it may take several months before the other companies with utilities on the existing poles make their transfer(s). We will continue to monitor/coordinate these efforts as needed to facilitate the removal of old poles.

For more information, customers can contact:

· Percy Schlimm, Sr. Electrical Service Representative at percy.schlimm@seattle.gov or (206) 386-1735.
· Kevin Knutz, Magnum Power Project Manager at kevin@magnumpowerllc.com or (360) 904-8318.

SCL says that if you’re affected, you’ll be getting all this information directly, too. (This round includes our area of Upper Fauntleroy, we notice, so we’ll be watching to see when the direct customer communication arrives.)

ADDED NOON WEDNESDAY: For the record, our notice arrived via postal mail this morning.

Volunteers rally for erosion emergency on Fauntleroy Creek

By Dennis Hinton
Special to West Seattle Blog

Volunteers turned out Saturday morning for state-approved emergency work to check bank erosion in lower Fauntleroy Creek. Over the past four years, erosion had chewed away a section of path used by hundreds of schoolchildren in the spring and salmon watchers in the fall.

The Fauntleroy Watershed Council spent nearly a third of its bank account on supplies and called on creek lovers to pull ivy and anchor coir logs to force flow away from the eroded bank. The council unsuccessfully sought grant funding two years ago, before the problem became severe, and plans to try again this spring to fund what has become an even larger scope of work.

“Starting in the late 1990s, the City of Seattle got behind restoration of its urban creeks and, in partnership with residents, accomplished a lot,” said longtime Fauntleroy Creek advocate Judy Pickens. “Over the past few years, the city has pulled back, making maintaining natural drainage systems a challenge borne to a great extent at the neighborhood level.”

As the mile-long Fauntleroy system illustrates, urban creeks convey more than a lot of water. “They’re also rich outdoor classrooms, science labs, urban respites, and close-at-hand examples of the value of protecting habitat,” Pickens said. “We’re doing all we can to avoid losing this urban creek to the impact of development and shifting city priorities.”

Last May, volunteers with the watershed council hosted a record 764 students, who released 1,795 coho fry as part of the Salmon in the Schools program. In October and November, volunteer salmon watchers documented seven coho spawners in the reach just repaired.

New Orleans Boulder Lounge adds a fun challenge for all fitness levels this summer

This is an archived article and the information in the article may be outdated. Please look at the time stamp on the story to see when it was last updated.

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) - "Remember, it's mostly about the strength in your core and your legs, so if you're hurting on your arms, it means you're using your legs not enough,” says New Orleans Boulder Lounge general manger Kelsey Confreda.

But don't be intimidated, there are many levels to choose from at the New Orleans Boulder Lounge where even if you make a mistake, at least it's a soft landing.

"Kids tend to do better than adults, their strength to weight ratio is so much higher than ours and they just tend to be fearless," says New Orleans Boulder Lounge operations manager Garret Mortensen.

“Bring in your inner child and pretend that you are not afraid of falling or heights or anything like that," says Confreda.

That's the advice from these pros, leave your fears at the door and give it a shot. No experience necessary. If you're a gym regular we're told bouldering is a great cross training exercise, working muscles you didn't even know you had.

"There's a specific formula we use called BETA and that's a specific sequence of events you go through in order to finish a problem," says Mortensen.

But it's not just about using those leg muscles or stomach muscles, there's a thought process behind each climb too. You can also cheat if you know the right color scheme. Blue is easy and yellow adds a challenge.


text: A grand jury could begin hearing evidence Wednesday in the case of an unarmed teen shot dead by police in a St. Louis suburb. The grand jury will decide if there's enough evidence to move forward with charges against Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson. Eighteen-year-old Michael Brown was unarmed when he was shot at least six times and witnesses say he had his hands in the air. Police however, say Wilson fired the shots during a struggle for the officer's weapon. The shooting sparked more than a week of protests and looting in the community of Ferguson.

Day 30 - I Have Come So Far!

Wow. I made it 30 days. It almost feels like I have been climbing up this hill and just looked back. The progress I have made is exhilarating! I am really proud of the fact that I have managed to stick to this program and am starting to see some results. Unfortunately the 4:30 am wakeup call still hurts. Jason and I wonder when that will get easier. I suspect it never will as neither of us are morning people. Thank you for helping me stick to it and offer encouragement along the way. It really means a lot to have everyone cheering me on.
Today’s Motivational Quote: Those who think they have not time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness.  ~Edward Stanley
I love the fact that my family is getting healthy. I really worried about my husband; his blood pressure was getting higher and his belly bigger. I worried he would suffer from a stroke or heart attack. Just having him excited about working out is a blessing. I am not trying to break any records to start competing on the muscle circuit; I just want to be able to put on a bikini and not hate what I see. This helps get me out of bed in the morning if nothing else!
Today I did eat something off the menu but I wouldn’t necessarily call it cheating. I am making jello for my fast day tomorrow (required for colonoscopy on Thursday). All of a sudden it just sounded good..yum…JELLO! I made a few extra flavors and ate one. Yes. I ate the entire box of prepared jello. It was sugar free and only 40 total calories, so I think it was within my bounds to eat.
Today’s workout was Upper Body. We purchased a Tricep Rope for our gym. I used that for my tricep exercise and I really liked how it targeted the muscle group. I wasn’t as strong today in my workout. Today I felt a little weak and unable to life what I had the other day. I still lifted but not nearly as much weight as last time. I guess it is expected to have those days.
This morning we had egg and potato mixed together with some chilies and our one cup of black coffee. For my morning snack I ate ¼ cup black beans, a wasa cracker and some salsa. I love this snack. For lunch I had leftover dinner from last night and had the black bean stuff for my afternoon snack. For dinner we made hamburgers using Emu meat. Oh, this meat tastes sooo good. It is naturally 97 or 98% fat free and its flavor is out of this world.
1 lb ground Emu meat
½ onion, chopped
1 TBLS or so (I sprinkled it on there) of Emeril’s Bam Hamburger Seasoning. (this stuff was awesome)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Mix it all together and make four patties. Grill. Enjoy!
I made some roti flatbread again and they turned out beautiful. I think the difference is I didn’t roll them out as thin. They were heaven. Finally, success!
I rolled one patty up in one roti, topped with mustard and tobacco, added some lettuce and ate!
I made four roti’s and we ate two each. I think that was too much and told Jason we should cut down to just one. He was a little sad to hear that.
The three things I did well today:
1.      Got out of bed and exercised without too much laying around.
2.      Ate my snacks.
3.      Stuck out the exercise program - oh I so wanted to stop
The one thing I am doing better tomorrow:
1.      Drinking my 10 glasses, fell a little short today.

It has been a lonely day.  Jason wasn't able to spend as much time with me today at the hospital.  I spent a lot of time trying to catch up on the sleep I did not get overnight and listening to my roommate anxiously trying to get out of the hospital.  As soon as she left, I asked if I could take her spot by the window.  I now have a beautiful view to look outside at the mighty Mississippi.  I also had a pleasant surprise visit from Jason and the girls.  It was so good to get their hugs and kisses.  Mackenzie made me a birthday hat to wear on my birthday tomorrow and Kendall made me a card with our saying on it:  "I love you all the way to God".  Because that is how far love can go.

I am starting to feel the chemo take affect.  My stomach has been upset and I am really tired.  It is hard for me to be up and about for very long.  It gets frustrating and I am hoping it won't get any worse.  Being on the oncology floor has made cancer so real to me.  It broke my heart listening to the pain my roommate was in.  It sounded like she was terminal and coming into the hospital to get relieve from the pain they were not able to give her at home.  I overheard the doctors ask her if she would like intervention should anything happen to her heart or should she stop breathing.  She  Her heart was so heavy from battling cancer over many years.  I could tell she was giving up.  I wanted so badly to shout, NO, do not give up.  You have so much to live for and grandchildren to love.  But I am sure it does get to a point when enough is enough.

I hope I don't get to this point.  I want so badly to be there for my kids.  I have been pretty confident up until now that I would beat this thing, but being here has dampened my spirits.  It gives me a glimpse of what might happen, but I hope it doesn't.

After having a minor panic attack after Jason and the girls left, I reached for my computer and read a very encouraging e-mail from my Uncle Bob.  He shared a blessing with me that brought tears to my eyes.  This blessing is my hope and my dream after all this is over.  Here it is:

May Your life be blessed for years to come
because you have met God in new and exciting ways.
May you and Jason tell the story of God's goodness
to your childrens' children.
May others look upon your life as a miracle of God
who desires the very best for his children.
May your life be as the flowers that bloom in the spring
when winter subsides.
May you praise God into your old age for his awesome
deeds of righteousness in answer to your prayers.
May you sense the presence of God and
May his tender mercies accompany you
both now and forevermore.

Please God heal me and answer the prayers of the many people that are praying, including me.

You can fight this Sue! You are young, strong, and determined. You must not allow Satan to tell you otherwise. All things that are good are from up above. God's desire is for you to have a long and healthy life. I don't know if you know the song with the lyrics, "Savior, He can move the mountains. My God is mighty to save." It is called Mighty to Save. Just remember that our God can move mountains. It is not too much to ask for him to move a few little cancer cells out of your body. This verse also comes to my mind, "ALL things are possible through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13. Philippians 4:6 also states, "Do not fret or have anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God." I encourage you to find some time to read all of Philippians 4 so that you can fill your mind with God's truth and hang onto that. My entire Bible Study group is praying for you Sue.

I don't know if you remember me, but I'm a friend of Kelly's. She has shared your journey with me since you got the news and you have been in my prayers from Day 1. My own best friend was diagnosed with colon cancer on April 3rd, and so much of your comments on faith and fears are EXACTLY the same for her.

One of my favorite songs is by Ginny Owens entitled "If You Want Me To". The lyrics are as follows:

The pathway is broken
The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason
Why You brought me here
But just because You love me
The way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials
Bring me closer to You
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me .

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone

So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering
Your love put You through
And I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to.

Sue,I know when this is all behind you, you will have an amazing testimony to share. Please know that your strong faith is such an inspriation to so many... even people you aren't aware of. Even in this difficult time, He is using you for His glory.

May God's mercy and grace see you through,

Super Sue -

I am a friend of Michelle E's, and a young cancer survivor myself. My "babies" were 4, 2 & 2 at the time I went through my chemo...about 6 months worth of treatments. Your blog directly reflects the thoughts and feelings I went through...almost exactly.

I just celebrated my "re-birthday." (A re-birthday is the day you finish chemo...) I'm three now! It can be done, my fellow mama. It can be done.

Cancer sucks. There's no other way to describe it. But please know, you are validated in your thoughts and feelings, whatever they may be.

My email is if you ever want to vent to someone who knows EXACTLY what you are going through.

Be strong, my friend. We've got places to go, people to see, and kiddos to raise.

We are praying for you, and MANY others are as well.

Jami :)

Sue -

I just want you to know that even when you are feeling alone in that hospital room...YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Thousands of people are praying for you. When you are up in the night, someone is praying for you at that very moment. And when Jason can't be with you in the hospital, someone is praying for you just then as well. And most importantly, your Heavenly Father is always there with you. He is right there in that room with you and he will never leave you. That's His promise to us - that he will never leave us or forsake us. Hold on to that when you are feeling anxious. Please know that you are on my heart all day and I am always checking your blog to "check in on you". And when I wake up in the night, I pray for you. Know that you are SO loved and covered in prayer.

God put in you in that room with that roommate so that you could call to Him to give you strength and trust in Him. He has a plan for you. Be strong, be courageous, be open. Here is my favorite bible verse:

Phillipians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

I am praying for courage and strength for you. You CAN do this! You are NEVER alone!

Your sister in Christ~

Just from a cyper friend but it appears that it is your birthday today - glad to see you will be having a visitor(s) this afternoon. Oh how I wish that you didn't experience the poor cancer patient next to you....bless your heart for wanting to encourage her. I love the card one of your daughters gave you....loving you all the way to God. I will remember that one. Keep holding God's hand - HE won't let you go. One day at a time.

Five Years with Agfa's Galileo CtP System, Still Going Strong

Thursday, April 24, 2003

Press release from the issuing company

Ridgefield Park, NJ - April 21st, 2003 - It was five years ago that Agfa began shipments of its Galileo Plate Manufacturing system into the CtP (computer-to-plate) market. What had started as one would later become thousands of CtP platesetters, with Agfa among the leaders in this growing field. When Agfa first introduced the Galileo into the CtP platesetter field, the Galileo utilized a Frequency Doubled ND-YAG "green" laser operating at 532 nm. Agfa has since added violet laser versions of the Galileo - the next generation of visible light platemaking technology. The first Galileo customer was Quality Graphics Center, Inc. of Roselle, NJ (www.qgcnet.com). Quality Graphics Center began as an Agfa customer in 1992, when they purchased an Agfa 9800 imagesetter. Over the next few years, QGC upgraded to other Agfa imagesetting systems, including the AccuSet and then an Avantra 30. In early 1998, the time was right for QGC to jump into Agfa's CtP technology. "The fact that we were already running an Agfa workflow made the transition to CtP seamless. We just plugged in the Galileo, and started running plates," said Darren Yeats, QGC General Manager. "At the time of each imagesetter upgrade, we compared Agfa's with competitive systems, and always found Agfa's to be superior. So when it came time to move to CtP, we figured we were working with an experienced partner that knew what needed to be done to achieve the highest level of quality. We weren't wrong," Yeats added. Today, Agfa offers a choice of CtP options - from thermal to the fast-growing violet laser models. For example, some presses require plates that are almost as large as 80" wide. Agfa's Xcalibur VLF thermal platesetter images plates up to 58 x 80" - a good fit for such press requirements. Likewise, newspapers need a phenomenal number of plates in the last hour before press time. Agfa's violet Polaris X platesetters image over 350 plates an hour for the newspaper industry. Regardless of the technology involved, Agfa recognizes that different customers have different needs, and that no single solution is right for everyone. "Since Agfa introduced the violet Galileo system at Drupa 2000 it has been the best-selling violet CtP device in the world. Violet's quality productivity and low acquisition costs are ideal for the short- to medium-run commercial printers who are investing in CtP devices today," said David Furman, Marketing Manager, CtP Systems, Agfa. "Alternatively, if you use abrasive UV inks or papers, or often have run lengths in excess of 350,000 impressions, then a thermal solution may be a better choice for your operation. Either way, Agfa will be sure to have a solution that is right for you," Furman added.
