Has anyone else used essential oils to help treat their fibro? I began last month with great results. My Rheumatologist is very pleased with my progress and told me that if the oils help with my pain and sleep enough I can attempt to go off my pain meds. So I am hoping next month to try out copaiba essential oil which is supposed to be as good as steroids at relieving pain and inflammation without the side effects.Right now I am using Frankincense, Lemon, Peppermint, Valor, Thieves, Lavender and wintergreen. So far I have been able to stop all my ant-acids (I was doing at least 4 tums everyday) and taking the lowest dose of my pain meds. So has anyone else tried this? Have you had any results?
Hello, I haven't tried essential oils - however, if you type in essential oils in the search box on the discussion page you might find others comments on it. And hopefully some people now will have experiences to share with you. Hugs!
I just started essential oils about a week and a half ago! I'm so excited to hear they are working for you, and can't wait until I start to feel the difference!
I use peppermint for my stomach and have stopped my stomach med with my doctors permission. I use lavender in my bathwater and have a satchet under my pillow.
What does the lavender in your bathwater help?
What oils are you trying?

This does sound great. Excuse my ignorance if I ask, how are these administered? Does someone have to massage these in for you?
Hi, I haven't used essential oils, but want to try. Ever since developing Fibro, I have become very attuned to fragrance. I have been almost craving scented candles. I believe they soothe my nerves and calm me. If you haven't yet tried the woodwick candles- do! They are wonderful and crackle delightfully. A fireplace in a jar.
Hi Anne, that is a good question for those not familiar with essential oils. I only use therapeutic grade essential oils, as in ones you can ingest orally, if you cannot ingest them orally you don't want to use them at all. Pure essential oils on a molecular level are small enough to travel through cell membranes and breach the blood brain barrier, so impure oils don't work well. Some of them I take orally, like lemon, lime and peppermint, I just put a few drops in water. Peppermint can also be rubbed on the stomach. The oils that I use topically, i just put a few drops on the area i want, and barely rub them in because the skin absorbs them rather quickly. My wintergreen, which is great for muscle pain, I actually mix with my lotion and le tmy husband massage it into my back, hips, shoulders..anywhere I can't reach. Frankincense i just dab on the back of my neck and base of my spine because its great for nerves.
I try to stay away from scented candles mostly because of the chemical scents. when you burn a candle, the chemicals go into the air and you breath them in. It was a hard decision for me because i looooooovvveee candles, so now i settle for non scented beeswax and such. I do recommend trying therapeutic grade essential oils and diffusing them. Chamomile, Lavender and Mint can be very calming and soothing tot he nerves. peppermint is also great for cognitive ability and will help keep fibro fog at bay.

Hi, njones. Thank you. I use only natural non-toxic candles. There are alot out there… lavender, lemon oil, all kinds, really! You don't need to give up on candles.
That is good ot hear....i've been thinking about making my own...with the essential oils and such. Where do you like to buy your all natural ones?
I get mine from buygreen.com. Big Dipper Wax Works candles are really nice aromatherapy 100% beeswax candles.
I am also thinking of making my own with rolled beeswax and essential oils. Save money and have fun to boot!
My mom (who also has fibro) and I have both been using essential oils for a little while now and they help so much. I still have a bad day once in a while (like today) but mostly they make me feel almost normal a lot of the time. I sleep a lot better now. The most difficult part has actually been pacing myself. I've got Copiaba and Panaway, which I use for my joint pain every day, as well as others like lavender, peppermint, lemon, and peace and calming. I've also got Joy which helps fight depression. I can't take other meds so these have been a huge help for me and I recommend everyone give them a try if you can. They aren't cheap but they are worth it. Also I've cleaned out my bathroom and gotten rid of any products that have bad stuff in them like parabens. Glad to know the oils are helping others with fibro as well!
Have you tried scentsy? You may really like it. You can look it up on scentsy.com.
No, I haven't, but I am interested on how they work and how you use them. Can you let me know, I would appreciate it.. Have a great night..
Essential oils have helped me a lot. I started by throwing out all my cleaners, Scentsy products, scented candles, air fresheners, deodorant, shampoo, soap etc and making my own.
It isn't as time consuming as it sounds!
Then I started using essential oils to replace all these things. Eucalyptus oil is amazing for congestion and muscle pain. Peppermint oil for tummy upsets. I diffuse oil combos for help with pain, concentration, alertness and a fresh smelling home.
CLeaner and personal care recipes are plenty on Pinterest, using the ingredients you want.
It is not a cure but any relief is welcome!
I find that essential oils used to help me but I can't handle the smell anymore. Good luck!

If you cause you want to cease the service, you can cancel your agreement at any time. No matter what your transport needs, Walmart's got you covered.


Procrastination is another barrier in achieving what we want and fulfilling our dreams. We are all set with the plan, but the only problem is implementing them. A five minute chat with your colleagues is perfectly acceptable, but what if others things are distracting you from your work? This MissionSelf article enlists few signs of procrastination that most of the people can relate to.
According to Joseph Ferrari, Professor of Psychology at DePaul University, almost twenty percent of people are chronic procrastinators.
"Everyday spent procrastinating is another day spent worrying about that thing. Do it now, and move on with your life!" We all procrastinate, it is one of the things that we excel at. Postponing any assignment or work, or maybe visiting your dentist for monthly check-ups are just some tasks that we procrastinate. What people fail to understand is that some or the other day they need to finish that task, so why not now? Why let minutes turn into hours, or maybe days?
Sometimes, we all are distracted by things that make it hard to concentrate on important tasks, but there are a few people who deliberately procrastinate. The common perception that procrastinators have is they don't mind if the task gets delayed, what matters is that it gets completed. Some feel that they work best under pressure, although, at first, it does not seem to be harmful but it can become worse over time, thereby affecting your personal as well as professional life.
No matter how much time we have to do any task, we always have time to put it off. So if you think you are not a procrastinator yet continue to ignore the work that you are supposed to finish today, drag your eyes through these signs which proves to you that you are a procrastinator.
We all use this phrase when it comes to studying or starting any project. You gather all your books, stationery, and other important items, and decide to start studying seriously at 9.00 am. But if you miss even a single minute, the whole plan of studying gets delayed. It's 9.01 am and you decide to start studying at 10 am, why? Because you wasted one minute of your life so you might as well waste another sixty.
People consult you for their problems because you are an expert in lending a listening ear. If your co-worker complains about not finishing his work on time, you suggest them to stop wasting time and concentrate on their work. But you fail at applying these rules to your own work.
You should be preparing for that important presentation, organizing your cupboard, or solving math problems. But there are so many other things in your life you would rather be doing like stalking your ex on Facebook, gossiping with your friends, or endlessly browsing Instagram.
You have your phone right by your side whilst working or studying, yet your fingers are itching to check if somebody called or left you a text. Checking your phone once every hour or two is absolutely fine, but checking your phone literary every five minutes is not healthy. You are wasting your time and delaying the task even more.
The thought of working on a new project or completing your homework reminds you of the fact that all this while your desk was messy. So, you start off to clean your desk and you end up cleaning your entire house, which means you will be exhausted to study or finish your work.
We all love sitcoms, especially if any of our favorite celebrity stars in one of them. Once we start watching an episode, it becomes difficult to stop. You don't mind staying awake till three or four in the morning to finish watching the entire series, but the thought of working on your research paper reminds you of sleep. This is commonly called the last episode syndrome, which, in reality, never ends and we continue watching the whole series.
Some of us have the awesome ability to work gracefully under pressure. Therefore, working on any pending assignment the night before is so uncool. In fact, you decide to start it an hour before the actual submission.
You are supposed to get up early to study for your exams, but instead end up hitting the snooze button more than ten times. Waking up late also means you are used to answering 'why are you late' queries or are good at coming up with excuses.
To avoid that particular work, you will end up sitting in the washroom more than at your desk. The same situation plays out at home too, just that the washroom is replaced by your fridge. You checked your fridge the first time, there is nothing inside but a day-old lettuce, you again check it five times expecting a miracle, but would rather not spend that time doing your urgent and impending task.
Before studying you want to curb your hunger, and the idea of a DIY snack had to come today. You are inspired to make your own snack and eat it peacefully and slowly. It has to be homemade and a seven-course meal too.
Before working on anything important, you prefer taking a long, nice two-hour nap, under the premise that it promotes concentration. Concentration means you will be able to work better and pay more attention to the given task. But a two-hour nap suddenly extends to four hours and further, until you don't have the patience to actually do that work.
Procrastination has severe long-term health issues such as gastrointestinal problems, weak immune system, and procrastinators are known to catch cold and flu easily. I am sure most of us can relate to these symptoms of procrastination, early treatment of this will ensure your productivity at work will improve and so will your overall health.

Code42 Introduces Private-Cloud File Sharing to Keep Sensitive Corporate Data Out of the Shadows
Meets enterprise file sync and share demands for on-premises cloud deployment; a single console for managing backup and sync and share; and support for compliance initiatives such as HIPAA and SOX
MINNEAPOLIS, MN – Oct. 7, 2014 — /BackupReview.info/ — Code42, the leader in endpoint data protection and management for business and enterprise, today announced general availability of its new, fourth-generation endpoint data protection platform and a new version of its SharePlan enterprise file sync and share (EFSS) solution. The new platform and expanded EFSS capabilities support data security and compliance requirements unmet by consumer-grade sync/share and consumer cloud storage services—applications often referred to as "shadow IT."
"Many enterprises face the problem of unauthorized and unregulated use of consumer-grade file sync and share applications," said Matthew Dornquast, co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) at Code42. "As a result, most expose sensitive corporate data to unnecessary risk. In fact, 81 percent of line-of-business employees admitted to using such unsanctioned Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, according to a report — http://bit.ly/1pMO3bj — by Frost & Sullivan. But it does not have to be that way—our solutions illuminate the data produced and stored on endpoints, and shared between them."
Dr. Tran Hong, associate vice president of technology for California Baptist University, agreed. "Many of our faculty and staff were using Dropbox for file access, and it was imperative for us to provide a secure alternative. We didn't want to strong-arm users into switching, so our approach was to affirm users' need for backup and sync and share, and show them that Code42's CrashPlan and SharePlan—as a complete enterprise solution—was a better fit for the campus and our users. Once they saw how easy it is to use, and what it can do, they eagerly adopted the new technology."
"Our research shows that enterprises are looking for file sync and share providers that deliver on the promise of enterprise data security," said Jim Lundy, founder, CEO and lead analyst for Aragon Research. "Code42 is leveraging its heritage in secure backup and recovery, and extending it with SharePlan to deliver the enterprise security that enterprises need in a file sync and share solution."
Code42's fourth-generation platform and SharePlan's additional file sync and share capabilities combine advanced data security with an easy-to-use interface employees quickly, effortlessly master. Unlike consumer-grade solutions, Code42 offers organizations secure file sync and share via a single, enterprise-grade platform.
SECURE, PRIVATE SHARING OF ENTERPRISE DATA
Through the Code42 platform, SharePlan offers a private cloud deployment option for enterprises requiring on-premises storage of data and encryption keys. SharePlan supports data security/privacy and compliance requirements—such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX)—and utilizes PIN-protected links to ensure shared files remain private. Additionally, enhanced, out-of-the-box reporting and an open API empower IT and legal teams to easily monitor user access, link sharing, file locations and shared files.
GREATER VISIBILITY AND CONTROL FOR IT
Code42 IT admins rely on a centralized platform to manage all endpoint data backup and file sync and share across the entire organization. Through a single administration console, admins support an unlimited number of users, and easily adjust policies and security measures in real-time for both SharePlan and CrashPlan enterprise endpoint backup. Code42 also uniquely protects each version of every file, with no limits on version and storage.
USER-FRIENDLY EXPERIENCE FOR A MORE PRODUCTIVE MOBILE WORKFORCE
SharePlan's intuitive interface provides easy access to files, and lets users revert to older or deleted versions of synced files when necessary. End users enjoy a more consistent, reliable experience when accessing their data from any device or operating system—including Mac, Windows, iOS and Android. Regardless which device type is used, the Code42 user experience is simple and consistent from device to device.
"In the command-and-control world of the past where IT could simply impose technology mandates, usability and adoption once were considered afterthoughts," said Terri McClure, senior analyst for Enterprise Strategy Group. "Today's user-driven business requirements, however, are changing all that. Code42 is one of the companies leading the charge, helping enterprises more easily bridge the gap between usability and control via an enterprise-grade file sync and share application that users embrace, and IT and security teams trust."
"When evaluating sync and share applications, it was clear Dropbox and other consumer cloud apps would be a constant headache for my team and me—as I suspect it is for most IT departments," said Jeff Hamer, director of IT at 360 Architecture. "Just because a tool is popular does not mean we can rely on it to store and transfer sensitive corporate data, or meet key compliance mandates. That's why we chose SharePlan. With this application, Code42 followed through on its usability promise, while also delivering some of the most rigorous security and visibility functionality we've seen on the market."
Hamer continued, "The ability to manage both SharePlan and CrashPlan users from a single console means no matter how big we get, all that important end-user data is captured—but it all can be managed by one person. This makes it possible for us to properly protect our mobile users."
"Keeping user disruptions to a minimum while providing highly secure backup and file sync and share was our main goal when comparing solutions," Cal Baptist's Dr. Hong concluded. "We appreciate working with Code42 as a trusted partner for both backup and file sync and share. Because CrashPlan and SharePlan are delivered on a single platform with a unified console, we receive the ultimate in data protection and a simple way to sync and share files while meeting data security and privacy best practices."
"One of the primary struggles faced by enterprises dealing with the consumer-cloud file sync and share dilemma is how to ensure corporate data stays private," said Dave Simpson, senior analyst for 451 Research. "SharePlan's on-premises data storage option gives IT and compliance teams this much-needed reassurance. Once their data security concerns are alleviated, they can turn their attention to increasing the productivity of their internal 'clients,' in order to significantly impact a company's bottom line."
"On-premises data storage; a single console for managing backup and sync and share; data security and compliance support—all customer-driven functionality in this product release that hit the mark for the enterprise and its mobile workforce," Dornquast concluded. "We already have seen a surge of interest from enterprise customers looking to solve their consumer-cloud conundrum. Our new platform and SharePlan sync and share enhancements give both IT and end users what they need

One example of this is the theory's prediction that demand for products not available in traditional bricks and mortar stores is potentially as big as for those that are. But the same is true for video not available on broadcast TV on any given day, and songs not played on radio. In other words, the potential aggregate size of the many small markets in goods that don't individually sell well enough for traditional retail and broadcast distribution may rival that of the existing large market in goods that do cross that economic bar.
The term refers specifically to the yellow part of the sales chart above, which shows a standard demand curve that could apply to any industry, from entertainment to hard goods. The red part of the curve is the hits, which have dominated our markets and culture for most of the last century. The yellow part is the non-hits, or niches, which is where the new growth is coming from now and in the future.
What's the size of the Long Tail (defined as inventory typically not available offline?
How does the availability of so many niche products change the shape of demand? Does it shift it away from hits?
What tools and techniques drive that shift, and which are most effective?
The Long Tail article (and the forthcoming book) is about the big-picture consequence of this: how our economy and culture is shifting from mass markets to million of niches. It chronicles the effect of the technologies that have made it easier for consumers to find and buy niche products, thanks to the "infinite shelf-space effect"--the new distribution mechanisms, from digital downloading to peer-to-peer markets, that break through the bottlenecks of broadcast and traditional bricks and mortar retail.
The economics of niche product areas can be particularly attractive if the problem of short-run production and distribution are resolved. Consumers will place a premium on the product that most closely meets their unique mix of needs, and will pay accordingly.
Whilst 'mainstream' products can become commoditised very quickly, reducing profit margins and politicisng production and distribution, the niche product can maintain higher margins throughout its lifetime.
Mass customisation techniques in manufacturing, communication, and consumer relationship management, can provide both the economy of scale needed to reduce production and distribution costs whilst at the same time more readily identifying and addressing the needs of the individual.
Seems like fertile soil for research and discussion.
profound long-tailness of international cuisine?
My only addition would be to suggest you call the industrial age solutions "one size fits most." Far too many needs and desires are left out by bureaucratic decision makers to call it "one size fits all."
Not all reasonable needs of the technologically empowered are met by the emerging Netcohort Society, at least not yet. As understanding of your long tale model grows so will society's individually tailored implementations based on it.
I found this article "The long tail in short". I think is a reblog form HBR Article but its better o give credit to a blog than HRB.
Just started reading your groundbreaking work(I am on chapter 4, so i could be overshooting with this idea i am just going to put forth. The proposition would apply only if its contents haven't been considered in your book so far.) Have you considered your 'Long Tail' theory being applicable to a scenario other than business? Pointedly i wanted to mention about my religion which is 'Hinduism'. We don't have one single God that we pray to or worship. Rather we have millions of God whose influence range from a very localized following & belief, to almost a global one. Going through your book & watching a series on India on Nat Geo just made me jump out of my couch & i was sheerly compelled to put this note to you.
Somehow, your books seemed to resound my own ideology which has had a significant influence from the Indian cultural & religious thought process. And, the key word that i found echoed most & shared between these religious teachings & ideas propounded by you is of a 'culture of abundance', where in each one aspires & propagates his efforts to nurture his individuality the most because there in lies the destiny of the highest order. And he is promised a world order of abundance in response to his yearnings (if they are pure in purpose & pursuit).
In short i believe India has long been a cradle of 'Long Tail' in one of the most important aspect of life that is a person's 'religious & spiritual' beliefs.
Hope you find this observation of interest to you.
Can you explain me the graphic ? I don't understand it.

Lots and lots of takes on the game, "the fumble call", QB rotation, etc. Thought some might find my first experience in Aggie-land interesting.
I am a Widower as my wife of 20 years passed away a few years back at 44 years of age from Lung Cancer having never smoked a day in her life. That experience and raising my two kids solo these last few years, has really given me some perspective on what is important and not so important at least as far as my life is concerned. It also makes the concept of building memories very valuable to me, so when my 18 year old son approached me last week and suggested a memorable trip for his Senior Year in High School would be an A&M trip, I was all about it. We quickly convinced a Clemson classmate to join us and made plans for a long weekend road trip. We left Friday around noon and made it to Shrevport around 2:00AM Saturday morning. We got a decent sleep and headed to College Station the next morning arriving around 1:00. We parked on the outskirts of campus by the polo fields and headed down to the Dixie Chicken and then over towards the stadium for the afternoon before the game started. Several things were noteworthy.
1) There is a room I believe was called the "Flag Room". It was in the student center and had 4 or 5 large TVs and lots of sofas/chairs/floor space and there must have been 100-200 folks in Orange and Maroon watching the USC-UGA game and avoiding the mid-day heat outside. It was a great setup and the perfect way for us to watch the "other" important game that day. Lots of nice folks in there - even one gentleman and his wife who offered us their seats. We declined, but the sentiment was indicative of the treatment we would get the rest of the day. These folks are serious about being respectful and classy.
2) The parade before the game. Right before game time, we lined the streets around the stadium to watch the parade of the cadets make their way to Kyle Field. It was astounding how many there were! After the band marched through to lead the processional, the waves of cadets kept coming and coming and coming! It finally ended when the mounted cadets on their horses and the Howitzer for the game pulled by a mule team made their way down the street on the way to the stadium.
3) The stadium was very impressive! We were in the upper deck of the End Zone where Tee scored his touchdown across from where our band was located. If I did not know the capacity, I would have guessed it was even larger than 105,000. I guess it was the way it completely surrounded the field that made it look so much larger than I envisioned beforehand. With all of the stadium lights flashing, energized fans, the towels waving frantically, and no place for the noise to escape, it is easy to see how the players could get easily get distracted and intimidated. No doubt about it - it was rocking Saturday night! Even up by 15 points a couple of times, you could feel the crowds energy and knew the game wasn't out of reach. That thought obviously turned out to be prophetic.
4) Band - I'm not much of a band guy, but the size and precision of the band was something to see. From the upper deck where you could see the formations unfolding as the members marched in all sorts of directions, I thought for certain there would be collisions or errors in all of the coordinated movements. It was flawless with straight lines and changing shapes that must take incredible effort to organize and pull off. It was a great show and worth staying in my seat at halftime to witness it.
5) The Aggie War Hymn - I think that is what it was called at the start of the 4th quarter had the whole stadium energized and engaged. If you are an A&M person, I could see how that would put a lump in your throat each time that song was played. Even as a visitor it was easy to get into it.
6 - The Smoke ring from the Howitzer - Someone posted a picture of that earlier today. After one of the scores and firing the round, that smoke ring floating across the field was pretty cool.
7 Finally and most important the Aggie People.... There was an announcement before the game reminding the A&M fans about class and respect for your opponent. I was blown away at how universal this sentiment was taken to heart by everyone we encountered all day - I mean EVERYONE. We sat in the middle of an Aggie section. We had been elbow to elbow with folks decked out in Maroon all day. Even making our way down the crowded walkways from the upper deck after a tightly contested game with controversial calls that frustrated the home team, I did not hear a single derogatory word. Not one - literally all day. Closest we even came was a car that drove by us walking to the stadium and the students yelled something like "Gig-em Aggies" or something like that. I was stunned to be honest. Much more often we heard "Welcome to Aggie-land" or "Hope you have a safe drive home" and never a murmur of anything condescending or hostile. We all love college football and want our team to win. We all get fired up and heated up when things don't go our way. These folks get it though. Maybe it is just my personal history with tragedy these last few years, but these Aggie folks see things the right way with the right perspective. They fought hard and that stadium was as raucous as you can imagine, but when the game was over we had nothing but pats on the backs, handshakes and well wishes. I just had to write this post to tip my cap Aggie fans, students and Alumni. You may have come up a few points short on the scoreboard Saturday night, but you sure won me over. What a classy, classy bunch that I have nothing but respect and admiration for based on the experience we had last Saturday. I hope it won't be my last trip to A&M, and for those of you that make the trip over next year, I hope you experience the same level of Southern hospitality, respect and sportsmanship we received in spades Saturday evening. My son, my buddy and I had an absolute ball!
Best of luck the rest of the way Aggie friends. This is one guy from South Carolina who will be rooting for you along the way.
I Am hoping to meet them again in the finals .
Wishing the best to the aggies.
Blessings to you and your family and thank you for giving us the insights.
Hey, I see Florence is heading your way. If you need a place to stay in Victoria Texas I have some bedrooms available.
Great story and a great trip for a father and son.
A few years ago I was living in Germany when Clemson made it to the ACCCG for the first time in recent memory.
I called my dad who lives in Greenville and said -- what do you think? I found the cheapest ticket I could find, flew home for the weekend and we drove up to the game together. The jet-lag sucked, but game with UNC was exciting and the memory will last forever. So worth it.
That may be the best overall post I've seen on here in 9 years, even counting those A+ & historical posts by our head male cheerleader Joe21.
What class, grace, fine writing, insightfulness, praise, respect & character you possess.
Saying, a Clemson Gentleman needs no introduction!
First of, my condolences to you and your family....I could not imagine life without my best friend!!
I think us Ags feel a great deal of respect and liking for your school. I've been a Clemson fan all of my life, never been to Clemson but I just had a feeling that had I not gone to A&M.....I would have ended up going to Clemson. I was right about Clemson being good people because my interaction with your fans was nothing but respectful and cordial before, during, and after the game both on Saturday night and 14 years ago when you guys came out here to plays us.
relatives are Texans with the greater part being Aggie alumni and fans.
My compliments and best wishes to you and your family.
Let's try to remember how the A&M fans treated us well next year when they venture onto our campus.
Great post!!! My wife and I made the trip to Texas for the game. I echo your sentiments about the Aggie fans we encountered. Even after the game and riding the escalator down from the upper deck, all we heard was, "Great game", "thanks for coming", "have a safe trip back". Also, numerous pats on the back. I am not sure I would have been that cordial but hopefully will remember how I was treated and will return the favor for all visiting fans, especially the Aggie fans next year.
My wife and I were so impressed that we bought a couple of Aggie shirts and will wear them proudly, especially when they play our feathered friends later this year!!!
Excellent narrative. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for taking the time to post that.
We found the Clemson throngs easy to host, somewhat kindred spirits in a way. But after reading your post, I now know for certain you Tigers have no trouble understanding "it". As mentioned before the game, we love including our guests in the celebration of our traditions, not as a boast but as a way of sharing "the Spirit" - "there's no sense in having pride in it if others hate you for it," I say. Love should be transmutable, or why love what you do?
My heart aches with you in your loss, my friend. I am an orphan myself and "get" the lead-in to the account of your trip and why you put the two together. Glad you made it a part of your journey!
Take care, Tigers, and the good Lord bless.
If you thought the band was great Saturday check out this performance. According to a computer program, two people can't be in the same place. Goosebumps every time!! Glad you enjoyed your visit! Stay safe with the hurricane.
wow! that is super impressive!
So this makes us Aggies beam with pride when a rival fan gives us this much praise on the Clemson forums about their visit to Aggieland. Not ashamed to admit that I shed a tear reading it -- as our Aggie hospitality is something us Ags take seriously.
The game was close and controversial at the end and lesser fans might have turned their frustration on their rival fans... But that's not the Aggie way in victory or defeat!
This makes my heart happy -- especially as someone who was the personal guide & host for gameday in Aggieland for lifelong friends that are Wisconsin Badgers with a young freshman son in the Clemson Band! I was happy to hear that they too had an amazing time and were shown legendary Aggie hospitality!
At 46 In hoping that our $75M investment -- that doesn't even include what we doled out for the other coaches and coordinators -- brings us that elusive National Championship in the next 10 years. Having said that with a fierce a desire as can possibly be imagined -- I'll trade it all for one of our most important traditions (Aggie hospitality) to prosper over future generations!
Chip I'm an Aggie and your write-up got posted on one of my feeds today. It made an impression. So glad that you and yours had a great experience in Aggieland. I grew up in academia and when my family moved to College Station from South Carolina (USC) we had no idea what we were in for. I loved the tradition and values of A&M. Fun that you got to be part of such an exciting game!

I grew up in academia and when my family moved to College Station from South Carolina (USC) we had no idea what we were in for. I love the culture and traditions and values of A&M. Thanks for recognizing it and calling out. So fun that you got to be part of such an exciting game!
My condolences to you and your family, Chip. I think you hit the nail right on the head with us. "Welcome to Aggieland" really is a heartfelt tradition here. I bet you also heard the "official greeting of Aggieland" a few times, too; HOWDY!
I actually had a similar experience to yours sitting next to a nice young couple in orange. She wasn't sure what was happening when I put my arm around her during the 4th quarter singing of the war hymn, but she and her husband swayed right along with the us and our 106,000 best friends!
BTW. Making a last minute 1000 mile road trip to a game with your son makes you a pretty awesome dad in my book. However, to qualify yourself as an honorary Ag, you have to do it twice. Ya see, at A&M if something happens once it could be an accident, but if it happens twice it's a TRADITION!
Chip - What a moving story - thank you for posting your experience.
I am still trying to digest how great the experience was for us. We also encountered so many unsolicited and genuine expressions of kindness and appreciation for our presence and wishes for a safe trip home. We've made some new Aggie friends sitting in the row in front of us, and we are hoping we can host them next year in Tigertown. One of the most memorable times was my wife, fully dressed in orange, sawing the longhorns off with the Aggies during the War Hymn.
Like others have said, I will use this as a reminder to express a heartfelt welcome to visitors to our campus in the future.
I'll be pulling for the Aggies the rest of the year! Beat Bama and USC!
Thanks for posting this. The last time we interacted with the Aggies in the mid 2000s, I remember similar sentiments back then as well.
Well said!!! I would love to Clemson add the rotc March to the band march from the amphitheater leading the cadence count. Heck we could add a big cannon too...just not sure about a live tiger pulling it.

To those of you that have voted in my poll... I thank you and your answers will be coming soon, to those of you that haven't GO DO IT RIGHT NOW.. or... or.. I'll make a sad face!
So last night I had a slight problem, well.. a major computing problem.
My mouse died. Computer mouse that is. Its been a long road for it (well.. only 4 years I guess) but it started flaking out a bit last month, just after I got back actually. It finally died completley on me last night.
As fullofwhispers and jazzy_belle can attest to how narked off I was getting having to navigate Windows using just the keyboard. Its doable, and once you get into the swing of it quite easy.. but not the fastest thing in the world.
Anyhow, even after some radical surgery by myself (or maybe especially after..) the mouse was still not working. So I resigned myself to getting a new mouse. These things aren't cheap. At least optical ones aren't.. and being a design nazi/graphics nerd/computer ponce I can't go back to a mouse ball.. urgh.. no.
As you can see it is purrdy, and has a glowing doohicky (the transeiver) with it. Goes quite well with my black monitor and purple keyboard I think.
I like your profile pictures. I found your journal through another person I've been talking to on his comments section. Very cool setup.
junkebunk is his name. are you familiar with him? I think he's how I found you.
heh....I just found that he used to live not too far from my hometown. I found him because he's friends with another lj friend of mine and he likes the band Remy Zero. I've been chatting back and forth through lj message posting, but it's all cool.
Remy Zero are pretty cool.
Admitedly I've only heard the song they did for Smallville, but that was v.cool.
Their lead singer looks a bit like Billy Corgan crossed with Spider Jerulsalem!


As soon as Mark Zuckerberg uttered an oblique reproach of Donald Trump's immigration platform onstage at Facebook's annual developer conference Tuesday, the countdown clock for a cheap shot from the G.O.P. front-runner's campaign started ticking down. Right on cue, just about a day later, Camp Trump fired that anticipated missive in Zuckerberg's direction.
Zuckerberg, meticulously on brand as ever, suggested we build bridges instead of walls.

Will your parachute work when you need it?
I'm sitting in my office preparing a presentation for an upcoming conference and a great analogy popped into my head. I compare the data gathering of food safety compliance information to the painstaking effort it takes to carefully fold and pack a parachute so that when you need it...IT WORKS!!
Let me explain...Companies spend a lot of time, money and effort documenting food safety data on paper logs. And here is the problem - paper records are inefficient, unreliable and are hard to access.
Your trace and food safety records are there to keep you safe in your hour of need – for example during a recall or an FDA inspection.
Just imagine the time and painstaking effort someone takes to fold and pack a parachute. Next imagine that person jumping out of an airplane and pulling the ripcord in an emergency…only to discover that the chute will not open or the canopy has a large hole in it.
It's that same sinking feeling many business owners experience during a recall. They have spent all this time, effort and money on a paper system that they believe meets with the compliance requirements and that will keep them safe only to discover their system has a big hole in it.
Gathering paper data is yesterday's news. Electronic data collection has proven to be the most efficient and accurate way possible to ensure the protection of information.
Food safety data is no exception!

UpMobility Foundation Partner Mohawk Valley Center For the Arts Stands Out at Mohawk Valley Gives
UpMobility Foundation partner Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts (MVCA) came out big in the inaugural Mohawk Valley Gives campaign.

UpMobility Foundation provided a match for the funds MVCA raised during Mohawk Valley Gives.
MVCA Executive Director Mary Ellen McGillan called Mohawk Valley Gives as well as the UpMobility Foundation match "game changers" for her organization. UpMobility Foundation looks forward to how we can continue to impact our partner organizations through programs like Mohawk Valley Gives.

UpMobility Foundation matched money raised by some of our local nonprofit partners, including Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts and On Point for College. We were pleased to learn that the Mohawk Valley Center for the Arts raised the third largest amount in the campaign.

UpMobility Foundation Boosts Bluegrass, Brews & BBQ Festival
The Bluegrass, Brews & BBQ Festival was held on September 17 in Little Falls, New York, drawing a crowd of more than 1,600 people. UpMobility Foundation is proud to be a supporter of the festival, which included noted bluegrass band Dirty Blanket as the headliner. Several local craft breweries and distilleries were represented at the event, including the Rock Valley Brewing Company, the DikinDurt Distillery, and the Erie Canal Distillers of Fort Plain.

UpMobility Foundation Teams Up With Little Falls Pop Warner Football to Provide New Uniforms
UpMobility Foundation is pleased to announce our collaboration with the Little Falls Pop Warner program in helping to provide their participants with new uniforms. The Pop Warner program, which was founded in 1929, provides four levels of tackle football, flag football and spirit squads for boys and girls aged 5 to 13. It is unique among youth sports programs in that it requires its members to maintain academic standards to participate.
UpMobility Foundation recognizes the positive impact of programs like Pop Warner on the youth in our community. We are committed to continuing to lift up our youth in Central New York.
UpMobility Foundation Helps Young Scholars Create an Online Platform for Their Alumni
Since 1993, the Young Scholars Liberty Partnerships Program has helped thousands of talented students in Utica, New York graduate from high school and attend college. With support from the UpMobility Foundation, the Young Scholars were recently able to launch the Young Scholars Alumni Society, an online platform designed to connect their many alumni. Within two months of its launch, the Young Scholars were able to bring on nearly three quarters of their graduated classes to the platform.
UpMobility Foundation recognizes the importance that building a network plays in achieving success. We look forward to seeing how the Young Scholars Alumni Society will impact its users. In the words of Asia Rosa, a 2014 alumnus of the Young Scholars program, "This Alumni Society platform is the perfect networking opportunity for all Young Scholars at different stages in our careers to support, reconnect and meet others."
UpMobility Foundation's Partner On Point for College Featured in the New York Times
LupWay Doh has a passion for helping others. A refugee from Myanmar now living in Utica, New York, Mr. Doh works for On Point for College, an education nonprofit that has helped thousands of first generation students get into and graduate from college. Mr. Doh and On Point for College were mentioned in a recent article in the New York Times which detailed the role that refugees have played in revitalizing a once-declining Utica, including renovating run-down houses and starting businesses. UpMobility Foundation is proud to support On Point for College, an organization that empowers first-generation college students, ultimately helping them to give back to their own community.
As a College Access/Success Advisor at On Point for College, Mr. Doh helps prospective college students, including refugees, navigate the admissions and financial aid processes. Additionally, Mr. Doh checks in regularly with the students once they have started college, helping them find part-time jobs and advising them with financial aid issues. Although the challenges facing first-generation college students can be daunting, Mr. Doh says, "I love working with people and I love to see them succeeding."
When the COVID-19 pandemic made remote learning a necessity, funding from the UpMobility Foundation allowed On Point for College to provide underprivileged students with the technology needed to complete their classes. When Tat Aye, a student at SUNY Poly's laptop broke the day she was supposed to take an exam, Ms. Aye contacted Mr. Doh, who was able to replace it. The laptop program has also been a lifeline for students who had previously relied on their school's computer lab or shared a single device with their entire household.
According to Mr. Doh, refugee students frequently remain in the Utica area after graduating from college. Many give back to the community through their work as social workers, nurses and leaders in local organizations. UpMobility Foundation looks forward to continuing to see the cascading effects of refugees helping refugees–and the community at large– in Utica.
UpMobility Foundation Continues To Support Healthy Families
In May 2022, representatives from UpMobility Foundation participated in a conference sponsored by Focus on the Family in Washington D.C. The multi-day gathering included speeches by leading figures in government as well as remarks by a panel of distinguished journalists. The conference's theme of honoring and protecting our rights and history as Americans was supplemented with expert-led tours of our nation's most important landmarks.
Focus on the Family's emphasis on the family as the backbone of society aligns with the values of William Babinec, who was the father of our founder Martin Babinec. Much of the philosophy behind UpMobility Foundation was developed with William in mind, who worked tirelessly to advocate for his community and values. As a longtime supporter of Focus on the Family, we are pleased to become more deeply involved with an organization that champions one of our most important charitable aims–supporting healthy families.
UpMobility Foundation Helps Pick Next Cohort of Young Scholars
On April 26, UpMobility Foundation's Andrea Babinec participated in the annual selection committee at Utica University to find the next cohort of Young Scholars. Chosen from leaders in the local community, members of the selection committee are divided into groups and tasked with selecting middle school students who will be part of the Young Scholars program until they graduate from high school. Started in 1993, the Young Scholars Liberty Partnerships Program was designed to motivate diverse and talented students to stay in school and attain a post-secondary education.
UpMobility Foundation was honored to be asked to be a part of the selection of the next cohort of Young Scholars, as one of our key priorities is advancing education in our community and elsewhere.

Kroeger Buys SKAR Advertising
Terry Kroeger, former BH Media Group CEO and Omaha World-Herald Publisher, plans to expand 57-year-old Omaha agency and propel growth.
Omaha, Neb., Jan. 31, 2019 – SKAR Advertising, a full-service integrated advertising agency in Omaha, Nebraska, announced today it has been purchased by Terry Kroeger, who was previously chairman and chief executive officer of BH Media Group and publisher of the Omaha World-Herald. Effective with the purchase, Kroeger will become president and CEO of SKAR.
"When I left BH Media Group, I was looking for my next adventure," Kroeger said. "With SKAR, I see a solid business foundation, a long history and tradition with true growth potential, and talented people already in place to drive that growth. I've found the adventure."
One hundred percent of the firm's shares were sold by the Smith family and the SKAR partner group. The Smith family has had ownership in the firm since 1962, when Wayne Smith founded the agency as Smith Kaplan. All partners will remain with the company, including Joleen (Smith) David, president of SKAR since 2000, who will stay on as vice chair for at least two years.
In its nearly 60-year history, SKAR has built a reputation for creativity and results. Kroeger said his focus will be to build upon SKAR's success in advertising and incorporate that knowledge and talent into finding client solutions in other business areas.
"SKAR has demonstrated excellence in delivering a core set of services – advertising, marketing, design and digital – and it is well-positioned for expansion," Kroeger said. "Areas like strategic planning, business consulting, public relations and crisis management are all natural extensions of our primary lines of business. As we explore these opportunities, we will seek additional acquisitions and partnerships, and look to attract talent as we grow."
Kroeger brings 33 years of management experience as well as hundreds of regional and national business and media contacts. Prior to joining SKAR, Kroeger helped usher in a new age of media at the Omaha World-Herald, which was purchased by Berkshire Hathaway in 2011 and then became part of BH Media Group in 2012. His experience managing a media company in an evolving industry landscape makes him particularly qualified to lead SKAR.
"During my tenure leading BH Media Group, our team operated high-quality, high- integrity newspapers that produced great journalism and also were profitable. This experience was a great way to prepare for this venture at SKAR, and I'm excited about it," Kroeger said.
Kroeger is a past chairman of the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce and currently serves as chairman of the Aksarben Foundation, which is now focused on workforce development. He is a member of the board of directors of the Associated Press, based in New York City, and is chairman of the News Media Alliance, the primary trade and lobbying association for the newspaper industry, headquartered in Washington, D.C.
"Terry brings an exciting combination of experience and expertise to SKAR, along with a collaborative approach and personal values that make him the perfect fit for a client-focused, 'check-your-ego-at-the-door' culture. We are thrilled to welcome this charismatic leader and work with him to write a brilliant new chapter in the history of the company," said David.

WEST BROM chief Tony Pulis has reportedly made an ambitious swoop for Morgan Schneiderlin.
The Sun claim the Baggies boss is ready to battle Everton for the Manchester United midfielder.
Schneiderlin has underwhelmed at Old Trafford during his 18-month stay.
Louis van Gaal coughed up £24m for the France international, but he's failed to impress.
And Jose Mourinho now looks set to get rid in January.
The Telegraph suggested last week that Everton are in talks over a deal with the Red Devils.
Schneiderlin hasn't started a Premier League game for the club this season.
And a reunion with former Southampton boss Ronald Koeman at Goodison Park could be a good move for all parties.
But Pulis is keen to bolster his squad in January following an impressive first-half of the season.
And the experienced chief might be tempted to pull out all the stops to secure his signature.
However, potential suitors will need to spend big if they want to sign the 27-year-old.
United are determined to recoup what they paid for Schneiderlin in 2015.

Bopworx has created a better solution to protecting your bike during transport and storage. Whether it's a bike on a car rack, in a car, in a box, or in a bag, one of the most overlooked areas is reusable and specific protection for your expensive investment.
Paul and Ciara McGriskin created the Bopworx line of products to help solve their personal issue while also filling a void in the market. Paul, an architect, spent time carefully securing the family bikes to the rear of their RV and noticed it didn't matter how he arranged them, there was always contact between them. Paul scoured the internet and local bike shops for a solution to stop the bikes getting damaged. In 2013, Paul and Ciara researched the need for these types of products by analyzing how people transport their bicycles and examined all the potential contact points.
Bop Bumper – The Bop Bumper is their original product, designed to be placed wherever you might need to protect your bike and your car against dings and scratches. The principle of the Bop Bumper is to create space between a bicycle frame and another object from impacting on each other during transportation and storage.
Double Bumper – The ideal solution for traveling with multiple bikes on a rear or hitch car rack, or when travelling with a bike case. The Double Bumper has two faces and rotates in the middle, allowing you to align each side at any angle. Each side has a soft yet durable rubber contact and straps securely on each side with our hook and latch system. It creates enough space to prevent two bikes from damaging each other while on the road, in a dual bike case, or even while simply in storage. The Double Bumper is also an essential product when traveling with your bike in a single or dual bike case. It is designed to allow you firmly hold the handle bars, seat post and any other free moving objects in place by attaching them to the bike frame during travel.
Fork Guard – The Fork Guard is designed to protect your bicycle's fork from damage when traveling with your bike in a car, a bike case, or simply in storage. The wheels roll for ease of loading into your vehicle and the soft rubber wheel finish prevents cuts and scrapes to the interior of your vehicle. Protect your fork tips, blades, and vehicle interior all in one. A detachable and retractable disc brake caliper keeps your disc brake pistons from closing if you have disc brakes, yet snaps cleanly out of the way if you have conventional brakes. The Fork Guard also allows the bike to stand stable on the ground with the front wheel off. The Fork Guard has been developed for universal use with all bicycle types and is specifically designed to work with both standard drop outs and 15mm x 100mm through-axles.
Rear Derailleur Guard – This is the best solution for protecting your rear derailleur and derailleur hanger. Simply loosen the quick release, insert the Guard, and close the quick release to hold firmly in place. Made of a very tough plastic, it will protect your bike from strong side impacts. Using the Rear Derailleur Guard in a bike case is easy as well. When the wheel is not in the frame simply use a chain-tensioning quick release or rear wheel spacer and the Guard will stay in place.
Bopwrap – The Bopwrap is their newest addition to the line and allows you to wrap up multiple sections of the bike using easy to secure, reusable high-grade rubber attachments. The rubber straps allow you to secure it just about anywhere on the bike. They can also be joined together to make larger wraps. It comes in two sizes small and large and a great replacement for foam tubing and tape that starts to break down after only one or two uses.

Norway still kicking at World Cup trials
Norway's national men's football team redeemed itself, after a crushing loss to Turkey late last week, with a victory over Montenegro Tuesday night in its latest World Cup qualifier. The team also mounted yet another T-shirt demonstration against how World Cup host Qatar has mistreated thousands of migrant workers building football facilities over the past several years.
This time the Norwegian football players and their coach wore T-shirts over their uniforms reading "Human rights on and off the pitch" during match preliminaries. They also raised their hands in a five-finger salute meant to represent a logo for human rights. They went on to beat Montenegro by a score of 1-0 at the World Cup qualifier that played out in Marbella. That raised their spirits after the 3-0 loss to Turkey on Friday that followed their victory over Gibraltar earlier last week. They were further aided by Turkey's surprise stumbling on home turf, also Tuesday night, in a match against Latvia (another member of Norway's qualifying group) that ended in a 3-3 tie.
That means the initial round of qualifying matches is ending up more open, but nonetheless led by Turkey and the Netherlands, followed by Montenegro, Norway, Latvia and Gilbratar. "But we're back in the running," player Alexander Sørloth, who scored the only goal in the Norway-Montenegro match, told TV2, which had the rights to broadcast the match. Sørloth's goal came after some fancy footwork by Norway's Mohamed Elyounoussi. Neither of the Norwegian team's biggest stars, Martin Ødegaard and Erling Braut Haaland, scored, which has surprised fans since Haaland especially has been a scoring sensation for his pro team, Dortmund. "I just have to be better," Haaland told TV2 after failing to score in any of the three qualifiers so far.
The next two qualifiers, against the Netherlands and Latvia, won't be played until September, but then the Norwegians will meet the Dutch at home in Oslo. They're also hoping for more demonstrations against Qatar by other teams, after already inspiring Germany and Denmark.

Smoke rises above opposition held areas of the city of Daraa during airstrikes by Syrian regime forces on June 28, 2018. (AFP)
Syrian opposition factions agree to Russian settlement in Daraa
Staff writer, Al Arabiya English
Published: 02 July ,2018: 12:00 AM GST Updated: 20 May ,2020: 10:53 AM GST
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Monday that negotiations between the Russians and the representatives of towns in the eastern countryside of Daraa achieved great progress.
The representatives of Busra al-Sham and Al-Jiza agreed to the Russian proposal which stipulates that the opposition hands over its medium and heavy weapons and raises the regime's flag on institutions and governmental centers and reactivate their work.
The opposition gets to keep their light weapons.
Busra al-Sham and Al-Jiza have thus joined Kiheel, Al-Musayfirah and Al-Sahwah factions in agreeing to this settlement.
The negotiations between Busra al-Sham and Russian officers took place on Sunday following Jordanian mediation as negotiations between them on Saturday had failed.
The opposition said the negotiations first failed because of the strict Russian demands but Jordan, which is concerned over battles erupting on its northern borders, intervened afterwards and mediate to reach a ceasefire.
Last week, the Syrian government forces backed by Russian air power turned their focus to the rebel-held southwest, Daraa, to restore it.
According to a war monitoring group, the offensive has uprooted more than 120,000 civilians, driving most of them towards the border with Jordan and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.

Former Vice President and chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC), Atiku Abubakar has dismissed rumors that he was under pressure to return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying he was irrevocably committed t the success of the APC in the forthcoming elections.
The former Vice President said in a statement from his media office in Abuja that his commitment to the APC and the success of its presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates of the party in the 2015 general elections is unwavering and has never been up for bargaining.
There has been reports in a session of the media of the purported plan of the APC chieftain return to the fold of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP) for alleged misgivings within the APC.
The statement stressed that reports of the Turaki Adamawa's purported return to the PDP or any other party is the handiwork of mischief makers focused on pitching the former Vice President against other leaders of the opposition party.
Atiku said that for the avoidance of doubt he is unequivocally committed to the unity of APC and that it will take more than the antics of mischief makers to break that bond, adding that his return from Adamawa, where he convened a stakeholders' meeting and reconciled disagreeing camps within the party, towards ensuring victory for the APC bears eloquent testimony of this commitment.
The statement said further that as one of Nigeria's astute politicians and businessmen, there may be overtures from across political divides to the former Vice President, but restated that Atiku Abubakar has publicly stated his commitment to the APC and has privately rebuffed the approaches from all quarters.


You can achieve a safe and comfortable working environment for people, with minimal impact on your time or milking routine, by trimming tails.
A regulation restricting any shortening or removal of tails came into effect from 1 October 2018. Find out more here.
Shears and scissors are cheap and simple to use on small numbers.
Electric trimmers make trimming large numbers quick and easy.
Switch trimming is usually required 2- 4 times per year. Dirty tails are more common during wet times of year, so it makes sense to trim tails before winter. Many farmers trim cow's tails after they calve or as they leave the colostrum herd, providing a useful indicator of what cow is meant to be in what mob in case they get mixed up. A small percentage of cows have persistently dirty tails all season and will require regular trimming.
Some farmers choose a dedicated day where the person on cups off or an extra team member trims all switches over one or multiple milkings. Other farmers trim tails as necessary throughout the year.
Switches can be trimmed using hand shears, scissors, or electric trimmers. Tools must be in good working order with well oiled, sharp blades.
Precautions to minimise spread of zoonoses should be taken even if tails are trimmed, including vaccinating the herd for leptospirosis, regular hand washing, keeping wounds covered, and using PPE.
Good stockmanship (patience and gentle handling) and management (switch trimming) will help resolve issues milkers have around their own comfort at milking. Cows that are comfortable and relaxed during milking flick their tails and stamp their feet less, and are less likely to poo during milking.

You might think you're some kind of a digital hero but you'll really be a super geek when you wear this waterproof wrist-mounted GoPro Digital Hero Camera, which purports to make it easy to shoot photos and video during your favorite activities. Nice, as long as those activities don't include anything having to do with women.
It's shockproof and even works when it's 30 feet underwater, weighs less than 3 ounces and looks like it could take a hell of a beating. It has a 640x480 digital still camera inside, and can shoot 320x240 video as well. Unfortunately, it has just 32MB of flash memory, and there's no slot for external memory cards.
You lock it down as flat as possible against your wrist when you're not using it, and when you want to take a picture, just swivel it up in a perpendicular position and you're ready to shoot. At least take it off when you go out to dinner. It's $79.95.

The plan to turn the Eighth Wonder of the World into a multi-use event space and parking structure has hit a bit of a snag.
We thought this was over, too. After more than a decade of bickering about its future, the 54-year-old Astrodome was supposedly saved—just a $105 million nip and tuck away from a second life as a multi-use event space and parking structure. Then Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo surfaced a little-known detail in a recent KUHF interview: "What I'm discovering is that the 105 [million] that was allocated is not enough to air-condition the building," she said before explaining her intention to reevaluate the county's plans put into motion by her predecessor, former county judge Ed Emmett. What exactly does that mean for the state of the Dome? Let's break it down.
What's the plan that Hidalgo inherited?
What alternative plans have been considered for the stadium?
Many will remember the contentious $217 million Astrodome bond proposal that went before voters in 2013. Similarly to the current plan, the bond sought to convert the Eighth Wonder of the World into event space alongside 400,000 square feet of plaza and green areas, but voters, unconvinced of its value, rejected it. Other, more fanciful ideas for the landmark have ranged from movie studio to indoor amusement attraction to the world's largest indoor park. A number of temporary "activations," too, have been submitted to spruce up the place while we wait for construction to start; one dormant proposal for a "Star Dome" sought to harness the building's 4,000 skylights to create "the biggest screen in the world" for light shows and movie screenings.
What would it take to install the air-conditioning?
There are only estimates so far, but to re-create what was once perhaps the largest A/C project of all time (engineers basically invented the technology for the Astrodome back in the '60s) is sure to cost a good chunk of change. Commissioners have pegged the figure for installation in the tens-of-millions range.
This is getting expensive. Can we still just tear it down?
In January 2017 the Texas Historical Commission unanimously voted to designate the Dome a state antiquities landmark, meaning that along with other all-time classics including the Alamo and the State Capitol, you can't knock down or even alter the stadium without a THC permit. And even if such a permit were granted, a teardown would prove challenging. For one, the Dome sits too close to NRG Stadium to safely implode, so the thing would have to be dismantled piece by piece. Then you would have to truck in enough dirt to fill the 25-foot-deep hole where the sunken playing field sits. Low-end estimates for the entire process start at about $40 million and skyrocket from there. Add the fact that flattening the Dome into a parking lot would yield roughly a third as many revenue-generating spaces as the current plan, and the county makes a logical case that renovation would prove more cost-effective in the long run.
So what can we expect going forward?
