From the Introduction:
A Climber’s Sojourns in the Sierra
As Vern’s lifelong love of the mountains found artistic outlet, he soon moved from 35mm to large format cameras. He also developed meticulous darkroom skills and established a long-term dedication to the Dye Transfer process. Currently using film for the initial exposure,Vern incorporates digital processes to produce constant improvement in his art prints, but he remains faithful, as well, to fundamental principles of classical photography.
Ever an inveterate mountaineer, Vern Clevenger still hauls heavy 4 x 5 cameras all over the High Sierra as he seeks images that will convey his experiences of this alpine world through essences of light and reflection. His traditional choice of equipment requires significant time in the field to set up shots that show thoughtful consideration of subjects and demonstrated care for composition. It also captures and recreates beautiful, true color with the finest detail as it imparts strong aesthetic statements.
More than just a “mountain-man,” Vern Clevenger is a true “mountain-family man.” His wife Margaret, son Dylan, and daughter Sabrina share every step | of Vern’s adventures and artistic journeys, as reflected in the descriptions of his images in this book. Throughout his professional career, Vern’s family has helped him review thousands of images and has thoughtfully guided his selections for prints.
And today, of course, operating the Vern Clevenger Gallery of Fine Photography is always a whole-family enterprise. Located in Bishop, California at the foot of the Eastern Sierra, the Clevenger Gallery and Studio displays Vern’s impressive breadth and accomplishment as an established international landscape and architectural photographer.

I recently discussed weekend shenanigans with a friend of mine who had been to the races. He had attended the meet in a brown checked tweed jacket, sky blue shirt, blue polka dot tie, patterned blue pocket square, light brown trousers and brown brogues. In other words; the race meeting dress code.
To my dismay, he informed me that the majority of the racegoers had not aligned themselves with this code. “I could count on two hands” he said “the number of men dressed appropriately. They looked like they were all off to the office.” I was further disappointed, though scarcely surprised, to learn that the black-suited majority were sufficiently indel | icate and ill informed to cast aspersion and dubious comment at those correctly attired.

France and Italy sought on Tuesday to boost confidence that Europe can tackle its debt crisis, with Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti saying he sees "light at the end of the tunnel" for the eurozone.
With European leaders keen to maintain momentum following a series of well received statements, Monti and French President Francois Hollande hailed progress in addressing the eurozone's debt woes after talks in Paris.
But new data provided a stark reminder of the devastating effects of the crisis, with the European Union saying unemployment across the eurozone hit a record 11.2 percent in June.
France and Italy "are determined to do everything to protect" the euro, Hollande and Monti said in a joint statement, praising recent remarks by European Central Bank chief Mario Draghi suggesting ECB intervention.
"Member states, like European institutions... must meet their obligations in order to maintain the stability and proper functioning of the eurozone," they said, calling for the rapid implementation of eurozone reforms.
Speaking to journalists, Hollande said the eurozone must be "defended, preserved and consolidated" and hailed "very significant progress in recent weeks."
Ahead of the talks Monti expressed confidence the eurozone was finally preparing to take the necessary steps | .

The Mercury Tree Pterodactyls
Progressive rock is a genre intended to lend greater creative expression and more diverse sounds to rock through non-traditional composition and unique instruments. The Mercury Tree is the epitome of a progressive rock band. Their latest album, Pterodactyls, shows off their eclectic sound by way of a very different messenger, dinosaurs.
The band was formed as a one-man project in 2004 in Portland, Oregon, by Ben Spees. But, like the prehistoric creatures this album is based off of, the band formed into what | it is today through a series of changes and evolution. Today, the members, along with Spees on vocals, guitar and keyboard, include Alan Johnson on bass and Connor Reilly on drums.
“Hatchlings” prepares listeners for the album with a 7 minute experimental mantra that stays pretty steady throughout, building intensity at the end. “Cephalopod” brings with it a brooding, ominous sound. Ben Spees has a nice, smooth voice which is carried along amongst the amalgam of sounds. While the | [

Jerry Jones (and Texas taxpayers) spent $1.2 billion constructing an opulent state-of-the-art multi-use arena that's perfect for concerts, soccer matches, trade shows, Promise Keepers rallies, and even football games—provided that you don't allow either team to punt.
Forty million of those dollars went to the installation of a massive 160-foot long, 90-foot high HD video board that dominates the airspace above the field. And in a surprise twist that no one could have seen coming, it took only one game to learn that an average NFL punter can easily smack the thing on a routine kick. Titans backup A.J. Trapasso hit it in the third quarter of their preseason game last night. Starter Craig Hentrich said | he hit it half a dozen times in warmups and estimated that half the league's kickers wouldn't be able to punt normally in that building.

It was around 2006 that I saw a presentation by Wim Wenders and Walter Salles about road movies, and it was a little after Salles had taken over the project of adapting Jack Kerouac’s 1957 “On the Road” for the movies, which had earlier consumed multiple scripts, including one by Michael Herr (“Dispatches”) and directors including co-producer Francis Coppola, who would have shot in 16mm black-and-white and even Joel Schumacher (from another script by Russell Banks). Salles had begun crossing the United States to talk to whomever he could who had connection to the book, the Beats, Kerouac, Burroughs and so on. He showed a rough twenty minutes or so, and the talking heads were interspersed with stock footage and the result was compelling. Its fate today? Perhaps an extended Blu-ray extra? That I wish to see. I’m still more taken with the few seconds’ glimpse I had | of Wenders squinting and craning his neck to look up at the image behind him of an elderly man talking in a book-lined New York apartment before spinning his chair backwards to watch the video rather than just about anything in Salles’ earnest adaptation.

President Obama goes on the offense for liberalism
Barack Obama began his second term by delivering the most ideologically ambitious speech since Ronald Reagan’s first inaugural address a generation and a half ago.
Reagan announced his conservative intentions by arguing, “In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.”Continue Reading
Just as forthrightly, Obama argued the opposite, announcing his progressive intentions for a second term: to defend the aims of the entitlement state, to take on climate-change deniers, to promote gay rights and equal pay for women, to extract the country from “perpetual war” and instead refashion America’s reputation at home and overseas as a “source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice.”
Even that word — progressive — doesn’t quite do the speech justice. That is a euphemism taken on for defensive purposes, when the traditional word for an ideology that believed in robustly using federal power for humanitarian ends — liberalism — came to be used primarily as a weapon against its adherents.
That was one of the most striking elements of Obama’s address: There was nothing defensive about it. He clearly believes that the 2012 | election, for all its snarling and divisive tone, served a useful purpose. By his reckoning, it demonstrated that there are more people on his side — immigrants, minorities, liberal-minded young people and women, beneficiaries of big government — than there are on the other side — older whites, cultural traditionalists, wealthy and upper-middle-class earners who recoil at what they see as the remorseless expansion | [

Gamma Phi Beta’s Beta Omicron chapter at Oklahoma City University was awarded the Mary A. Bingham Award for overall excellence in all areas of collegiate chapter life at their international convention in Denver this past weekend.
Only one chapter is selected for the award each year. Chapter President Brittany Jo Bisel, a mass communications senior, accepted the award on behalf of the chapter.
The Chancellor E. O. Haven Excellence Award was presented to the Beta Omicron for having the highest grade point average for the previous two academic years of all Gamma Phi Beta chapters. It | was the second consecutive biennial convention that Beta Omicron earned this distinction. The GPA for the chapter for the spring 2012 semester was 3.717.

Two policemen attached to the Adamawa and Rivers states police commands yesterday shot themselves dead in separate incidents with their service rifles after they had killed their colleagues and wounded others.
In Adamawa State, a corporal attached to the police station in Lala village of Gombi local government area, identified as Cpl. Nuhu Ishaku, without any provocation, went wild on a shooting spree.
Adamawa State commissioner of police Aderele Shinaba, who confirmed the incident, said that Ishaku, just lifted his rifle and opened fire on his colleagues at the Lala police station.
Shinaba said that Ishaku shot and killed one Inspector Benjamin Tizhe, who was the charge room officer at the police station.
CP Shinaba said that Ishaku | also shot a Cpl. Chokica Inchi before shooting himself four times. Both Inchi and the trigger-happy Ishaku were said to have been rushed to the hospital where Ishaku died while Inchi is still receiving treatment.
“We don’t know what really prompted him to take such an action, but since one of those shot is still alive, we hope when he recovers he will assist us in the investigation,” said Shinaba.

Health officials on alert for tick fever
By Cindy Yurth
WINDOW ROCK, May 24, 2012
S ummer is almost here, which means the Navajo Nation Veterinary and Livestock Program is once again bracing for an epidemic the Navajo Nation has managed to avoid for several years through, near as anybody can tell, sheer luck.
Since 2003, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever has been identified in Arizona. There have been 194 cases and 17 deaths - all Native Americans living on three reservations near Phoenix, and mostly children under eight years old.
Glenda Davis, head of the Veterinary and Livestock Program, says it's no mystery why Arizona's Natives are most susceptible to the sometimes fatal disease.
"It's our culture," she said. "We think we have to let our dogs run free."
The bacterium that causes spotted fever, Rickettsia rickettsii, is transmitted by ticks, and ticks are transmitted by dogs.
For years, it was thought that only three species of tick - the deer tick | , the Rocky Mountain wood tick and the Lone Star tick - carried the bacterium. But lately, it has turned up in the brown dog tick. That's the extremely common tick that, unless you regularly treat your dog for ticks and fleas, is probably sucking blood from him right now.
If an infected tick bites your dog, Davis explained, the bacterium gets into the animal's bloodstream, where it can infect the next tick that sucks its blood. If that tick then bites you or your child, it transmits the bacterium to you through its blood-thinning saliva | [

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (April 18, 2011)—The Spring/Summer meet at Hollywood Park, which begins with an eight race program Thursday, will see an increase in overnight purses from the 2010 season.

Yerba mansa is a California native, occurring in Southern California along seeps, stream edges and wet meadows, particularly where the soil is alkaline.
It has light green leaves which form rosettes of foliage about 6" tall. The plant spreads by sending out long runners in the same way as strawberries. In moist alkaline soils, large colonies of plants | are soon formed.
In late spring, curious cones of flowers are produced which stand about 3-4" above the foliage. Each "cone" is, in fact, a tight collection of masses of tiny greenish flowers.
Although yerba mansa thrives in soils with a high pH, it's very tolerant of neutral and slightly acidic soils. It is also quite tolerant of infrequent watering and fairly dry soils, although it does look better with an ample supply of water.

General: Systemic absorption of topical corticosteroids has produced reversible hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis suppression, manifestations of Cushing's syndrome, hyperglycemia, and glucosuria in some patients.
Conditions which augment systemic absorption include the application of the more potent steroids, use over large surface areas, prolonged use, and the addition of occlusive dressings.
Therefore, patients receiving a large dose of a potent topical steroid applied to a large surface area or under an occlusive dressing should be evaluated periodically for evidence of HPA axis suppression by using the urinary free cortisol and ACTH stimulation tests. If HPA axis suppression is noted, an attempt should be made to withdraw the drug, to reduce the frequency of application, or to substitute a less potent steroid.
Recovery of HPA axis function is generally prompt and complete upon discontinuation of the drug. Infrequently, signs and symptoms of steroid withdrawal may occur, requiring supplemental systemic corticosteroids.
Pediatric patients may absorb proportionally larger amounts of topical corticosteroids and thus be more susceptible to systemic toxicity. (See PRECAUTIONS: Pediatric Use).
If | irritation develops, topical corticosteroids should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted.
In the presence of dermatological infections, the use of an appropriate antifungal or antibacterial agent should be instituted. If a favorable response does not occur promptly, the corticosteroid should be discontinued until the infection has been adequately controlled.
Information for the Patient: Patients using topical corticosteroids should receive the following information and instructions:

For all the claims of Sharia law infecting our legal system, I don’t think it’s Islam that is going to hang its banner from the White House. Everyone likes to rise up in arms when they have the chance to portray a member of government as sympathetic to some brand of fundamental Islam, but no one wants to acknowledge a different fact: it’s Christianity, not Islam, that dominates government.
Most rational people believe in a separation of Church and state. We’re supposedly a democracy, not a theocracy. Laws must be based on reason and logic, not religious texts and doctrines. It would seem odd, then, that this supposed democracy has never had a President that was not a Christian (say what you want about the founding fathers’ religious beliefs). Currently, not a single member of Congress is religiously unaffiliated. Sure, there are only two Muslim legislators, three Buddhists, and of course there is a smattering of Jewish legislators. But by and large, the U.S. government is one where Christians flourish.

Warranties may be the most misunderstood part of mattress shopping and are of little help in judging mattress quality. Although most national brand manufacturers offer warranties ranging from 3 years on their promotional products to 10 years on their premium products, some mattresses come with warranties ranging from 20 years to a lifetime. This, however, does not mean that the mattress will actually last that long, because warranties only cover defects in materials and workmanship, not the gradual loss of comfort or support.
In addition, please be aware that some warranties are also prorated, which means that as your mattress ages, you receive proportionately less credit towards a new mattress. A non-prorated warranty, on the other hand, will cover 100% of the labor and material cost to repair or replace a defective mattress or box spring. You should also be aware that valid warranty claims are a very small percentage of sales. Structural | damage such as loose, broken or protruding coils and wire are rare under normal usage. Over time, mattresses will wear out or your comfort preference may change, but these are not warranty defects. So, when shopping for a mattress, you should focus on finding one with the | [

WASHINGTON – An assault-weapons ban won’t be in the gun-control legislation that Democrats bring to the Senate floor next month, a decision that means the ban’s chances of survival now are all but hopeless.
The ban is the most controversial firearms restriction that President Barack Obama and other Democrats have pressed for since an assault-type weapon was used in the December massacre at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. Rejection by Congress would be a major victory for the National Rifle Association and its supporters and a setback for Obama and the provision’s sponsor, California Sen. | Dianne Feinstein.
In a tactical decision, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., concluded that including the prohibition in the gun bill would jeopardize the chances for passage of any firearms legislation at all, taking away votes that would be needed to overcome Republican attempts to block the Senate from even taking up the issue.

These questions have been asked and discussed for over 20 years, but solutions are yet to be found.
So, while authorities and those in the know draw and | re-draw their "redevelopment" plans, foolishly thinking they can plan life, we bring life to downtown Jacksonville the best way we can. We hope to encourage others to make their statement as well. Take back her streets!

BLOWING ROCK, N.C. - On Travel + Leisure's most recent World's Best Awards list for top destination spas, you'd expect to find familiar brand names like Canyon Ranch. But the No. 2 spot on this coveted lineup might surprise you: Westglow Resort & Spa, located in Blowing Rock, N.C., 100 miles from Asheville and 200 miles from Raleigh.
Listed on the | National Registry of Historic Places, Westglow was built in 1916 by American artist and writer Elliott Daingerfield. The Greek Revival home, ringed on all sides by the Blue Ridge Mountains, is named "Westglow" because of the incredible views. Daingerfield described them as "never glaring, always glowing throughout the shadows, clouds or mist."

OJAI, Ventura County (CBS 5) – Soon, residents in one of the Bay Area’s poorest communities expect to learn if they’ll see another jump in their utility bills. Last year, CBS 5 first reported on the situation in Bay Point, where water can easily cost two or three times more than what people pay across the rest of Contra Costa County, even though it’s the exact same water. Now, the people of Bay Point aren’t the only ones complaining.
The Ventura County city of Ojai is organizing | a mutiny against the very same water company. In fact, the town is covered in yard signs, signaling a small revolution. “They’re everywhere! I have three in my front yard,” says Betsy Clapp, the city’s mayor.

Environmental sensibilities shape cultural expectations about how every environment we interact with should be properly organized. The physical construct envisioned by the architect, the interior designer, the store owner, etc. are all varied to some degree based on how they understand and respond to vague notions like “shopping.” Add to that the varied, contextually mitigated understandings of the consumer about an activity and space, and designing the elements that are meant to fit into a space becomes highly contentious. Frequently, retailers and CPG companies build around assumptions that rarely factor in the complex underpinnings of why people shop | in a broader cultural context. The misunderstanding and conflicts that can occur from mismatches in conceptions of context, time and space can create considerable dissonance in civility, understanding and sympathy. And that leads to lackluster sales.

The Accountable Care Act: more ripples in the health care pond
Blog entry: September 19, 2012, 4:30 am | Author: DAVID E. SCHWEIGHOEFER
In our continuing effort to walk the straight and narrow during this contentious election year, have you noticed the increase in political noise about Medicare reform? Let us not pick sides, but let us, instead, attempt to examine the facts.
Ripple: The Medicare system as we know it is broken. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office's new cost estimates raise projected Medicare spending by $136 billion over the next decade. The reason – lower productivity and higher-than-expected costs for goods and services.
Ripple: The widely discussed Ryan plan does not now propose the | use of vouchers. His original plan did in the budget resolution passed in 2010 in the 111th Congress. The 2013 budget resolution, passed in the 112th Congress by the House of Representatives, does not include the term or the concept.
Ryan's new plan is known as “premium support”. Seniors who retire | [

Unlike their audiences, news media rarely value religion as highly, say, as rape and murder, celebrity sex, seasonal skirt height or holiday recipes.
For years, The Cincinnati Post and The Cincinnati Enquirer were exceptions: Jim Adams, Laurie Petrie, Camilla Warrick, Kathleen McClain, Julie Irwin and others.
Today neither paper nor any local broadcaster has anyone with those smarts covering Bush's religio-political agenda. He's not unique in presidential history, but he's ours here and now.
We can't count on politics reporters to pick up coded clues in god-talk that would provide insights into "faith-based initiatives" run by people who believe their God denies salvation to nonbelievers.
We the damned need to be heard and those programs need to be evaluated on the same criteria as secular efforts. Accepting them on faith won't do.
In short, we're screwed.
Newsrooms rightly value skepticism, but it can distort news judgments about beliefs and practices that editors do not appreciate or share. That's why journalists love a televangelist or local pastor caught with his pants down. It confirms their biases | . Fear also leads some editors to flinch from religion stories. I recall one editor physically recoiling when I suggested writing about "sex, power and money: women in religion today."
So we have mainstream news media crippled by ignorance and bias trying to report on a president who believes "moral values" elected the elect. Think of issues crying for street-smart religion reporting:

The consultation took place on the Marple Website between Tuesday 27th December 2005 and Friday 17th March 2006, during which time exactly 100 responses were received via the Internet. In addition to the on-line forms submitted, a local organisation - The Marple Afternoon Townswomen Guild - requested a manual version of the questionnaire because a number of their members who do not have Internet access wished to take part. | [

Metro officials pan authorizer bill
By Chas Sisk
(From The Tennessean, February 18th, 2013)
Members of the Metro Council, the school board and the state legislature panned a bill that would take away Nashville’s ability to review new charter schools and urged Mayor Karl Dean and House Speaker Beth Harwell to walk away from it.
Twenty-two elected | officials from Davidson County gathered Monday at Legislative Plaza in an attempt to derail a bill that would set up a state body to review applications for school charters in Nashville and Memphis. The measure, House Bill 702, was introduced last week and is scheduled to be taken up by a legislative committee on Tuesday.
The bill has split Nashville’s leadership. Dean, a Democrat, and Harwell, a Republican representing Green Hills, support the measure following last year’s rejection of Great Hearts Academies’ application for a charter. But most other | [
