Bruce Gardner
Meet Bruce
For over 25 years, Bruce has been in the business of assisting and explaining insurance coverage. He has stayed in the industry so long because he enjoys what he does and his knowledge and experience makes it easy for him to talk about insurance. He prides his business on providing people with the correct coverage and helping them understand what they have.
"I hope people understand we want to do a good job for them. We put the client first, and we work to make sure you are correctly covered."
Besides the insurance business, Bruce also enjoys family time, like playing soccer with his son, William. His wife works at W&L in the Athletic Department as the men's and women's swimming coach. She teaches swimming and Red Cross lifeguard training too.
"We enjoy playing golf, kickball, and basketball, our two dogs, Daisy and Duke, and our latest project of building a tree house this summer."
Bruce and his family also enjoy Disney World and welcome questions from anyone about planning a Disney vacation.
"You're never too old to be a kid!"

Candy Camden
Meet Candy
Candy was born and raised right here in Rockbridge County, Virginia. She values sharing her insurance knowledge with her clients so they understand what their policy really means.
"I love to work with my clients to make sure they have proper insurance coverage and to save them money."
In her time outside the office, Candy coaches volleyball at Maury River Middle School and Rockbridge Junior Olympics. She believes in giving back to the community and teaching children to work for what they get. So through her work with volleyball, she has been involved in several fundraising events to benefit local people in need.

Stephanie Bray
Meet Stephanie
Becoming an insurance agent was a natural progression for her from working as a receptionist in an insurance agency to getting her license, being promoted to sales and service, and finally starting her own book of business. With over 20 years of experience, her clients trust her and know she always has their best interests in mind.
"I provide my clients with information and guidance that will benefit them for life, not just right now."
Although she is thankful for the stability and longevity of her career, Stephanie's family is most important in her life. She is guided by faith, loves to discuss theology and enjoys the subjects of science, history, law, and politics.
Stephanie is also an avid gardener and find working in my vegetable and flower gardens to be very relaxing and rewarding. Her family loves animals and has four cats, two dogs, and around 40 chickens.
"We eat a lot of eggs!"

Robin Heizer-Farris
Meet Robin
Robin is a Rockbridge County native, born and raised. She really knows the area, the people, and the lifestyle, plus she has backgrounds in real estate, finance, insurance and building (her father was a developer and her husband is a contractor).
"I think I can bring a lot to the table with my professional experience and back it up with a knowledgeable staff and great, long-trusted company."
Outside of insurance and her Blue Ridge Properties Real Estate Magazine, Robin and her husband, who is also a local well-respected painting contractor and great deer hunter, attend and watch a lot of football games. Their youngest son played football at Virginia Tech and is trying to go pro, so they're very involved in that process. She also works out regularly and is a member of the YMCA.
"Zumba is my favorite class, but I enjoy lifting weights too."

If you leapt into space without the benefit of a spacesuit, things would get ugly fast.
Your blood and body fluids would boil, then freeze. While being pummeled by speeding rock particles and possible space junk, you'd swell up like a balloon as your skin and internal organs rapidly expanded. Mercifully, you'd lose consciousness within seconds from lack of oxygen.
On a brighter note, astronauts in high-tech space gear describe spacewalks as thrilling, watershed experiences. Utah State University physics student Kelby Peterson aims to keep it that way.
"Space is a dangerous place," says Peterson, a USU Undergraduate Research Fellow. "Spacesuit and spacecraft design is fascinating because they are so many things you have to think about."
Peterson is among a group of USU students that presented to Utah legislators Jan. 31 during the state's 2013 Undergraduate Research Day on Capitol Hill in Salt Lake City. In the Capitol Rotunda, the Sandy, Utah, native displayed a small sample of mylar — a common spacesuit material — that flew on the outside of the International Space Station for 18 months and took a punishing blow from a micrometeoroid.
The sample Peterson is studying is one of a group of samples from a USU experiment delivered to the ISS aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour in March 2008. The experiment was part of 'SUSpECS' — short for "State of Utah Space Environment and Contamination Study." SUSpECS is part of a larger NASA study called Materials International Space Station Experiment or "MISSE" aimed at finding material suitable for crafting future space vehicles and instruments.
Peterson's faculty mentor J.R. Dennison, professor in USU's Department of Physics, led the experiment. The SUSpECS samples returned to Earth with Space Shuttle Discovery in Sept. 2009.
Peterson's sample is about the size of a dime. She says the tiny sample's mishap in space is sobering because an astronaut makes a much bigger and more likely target.
"I calculated the probability of a human being hit by a micrometeoroid as twice that of my mylar sample," she says.
In the lab, Peterson is trying to simulate the ultraviolet radiation of the space environment and determine when, in the sample's cosmic journey, it was struck. The undergrad has constructed a powerful UV lamp with an elliptical reflector, which she operates with a welding mask, to see how the radiation affects mylar samples without atmospheric protection.
From MISSE-initated studies such as Peterson's, NASA is trying to find the best materials for increasingly long space missions.
"We're talking spacecraft and instruments that will travel for decades," says Peterson, a 2011 graduate of Utah's Itineris Early College High School and a New Century Scholar. "It's a tremendous challenge and a new level of thought."

Renesas Electronics had earlier launched the SH7260 Series of microcontrollers, built around the SH2A-FPU 32-bit CPU core with superb real time processing capability, as a solution for the digital audio field. TheSH7262 and SH7264 belong to the SH7260 Series of microcontrollers, and the maximum operating frequency of 144 MHz enables faster operation in applications such as equipment control or digital audio signal processing. This combination of excellent signal processing performance and ROM code efficiency means that compression and decompression of audio data in formats required by digital audio applications, such as MP3, WMA, or AAC (Advanced Audio Coding), is performed more quickly and program sizes are reduced. Thanks to the newly added large-capacity SRAM, not only processing tasks related to equipment control and digital audio, but also video display capabilities can be implemented on a single chip. An ample 1-Mbyte or 640-Kbyte of on-chip SRAM is provided for video display use. It can be configured as a frame buffer to store video data temporarily, which is necessary when implementing graphical display capabilities. The generous SRAM capacity means that it is possible to use a TFTLCD panel display up to WQVGA size (480 x 240 pixels) without the need for external SDRAM as video memory.
The SH7262 and SH7264 provide a new video display controller and digital video input pins for use with graphical and video display applications. Digital RGB output pins allow output of images or video in RGB565 format at up to WQVGA size (480 × 240 pixels).
This reduces the total number of devices required and helps lower both the cost and the power consumption of the system.
Key Features:
- Operating frequency
- 144 MHz
- Cache
- 16 KByte (Separate Instruction 8K/ Data 8K, 4-way set associative)
- Debug
- Package
- SH7262:176 pin QFP (24mm x 24mm) (0.5mm pitch)
- SH7264:208 pin QFP (28mm x 28mm) (0.5mm pitch)
- etc
- External RAM-less system is realized by the 1-MByte/640-KByte large capacity SRAM.
- Possible to image processing by display controller with video input.
- Possible to connect with NAND flash, serial flash memory and boot from them.

Language Lounge
A Monthly Column for Word Lovers
Most Fowl
He prayeth well, who loveth well
Both man and bird and beast.
- Samuel Taylor Coleridge
We were in the Language Larder the other day, arranging the staples in alphabetical order and contemplating whether we should follow the lead of Chicago and throw out those tins of foie gras. It was then we heard on the news that the current session of the US Congress was a lame duck one. This chance (or was it?) juxtaposition of Anseriformes sent us to the Visual Thesaurus to explore the world of bird-inspired language. In very little time, our imagination had taken flight.
It's a curious thing that in addition to the many literal kinds of duck, English has so many figurative species as well: the VT catalogs four of them, and they all fit the category of things that we'd rather see than be: besides the lame duck, there is the dead duck, the sitting duck, and -- perhaps least perilous on the face of it -- the queer duck. It is possible to imagine a sort of nightmare scenario in which one's status rapidly changed from one of these to each of the others, ending up inevitably as the dead variety; but we marvel that all of these expressions have settled on the duck as their vehicle -- especially when they can all either lead to or result from one's goose being cooked.
By nature we tend to quail from litanies of ill-considered puns and we have even been known to grouse when others swan about, inflicting them on us, but when it's time to talk turkey about feathered figures of speech, it really is quite remarkable that English has such a flock of them.
While certain bird-tropes have something complimentary or respectful to say about our feathered friends -- one can, for example, soar like an eagle, or watch someone like a hawk -- it seems that most avian analogies are somewhat akin to those for the duck: the bird ends up on the short end of the stick, serving only as the carrier of a disparaging message. Chicken is a case in point: all of its standalone figurative meanings are derisive, despite the chicken being such a harmless creature. The one notable exception is spring chicken, a prima facie commendatory thing to be, or to be called; except that the expression is typically used to characterize someone who is not one.
The turkey fares little better than its smaller cousin. It's "a person who does something thoughtless or annoying" or "an event that fails badly or is totally ineffectual." These deprecations, we suspect, are the product of nearly 400 years of turkeys appearing on holiday dinner tables, during which time they have been successively bred to please the human palate and maximize the profits of their breeders, at the expense of their better natures. When we hear that Benjamin Franklin would have preferred that the turkey be the national bird of the United States, we may be inclined to snort ironically, so low have the connotations of this creature sunk in our imaginations. Franklin's observation ran thus:
For in Truth the Turkey is in Comparison a much more respectable Bird [than the bald eagle], and withal a true original Native of America... He is besides... a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on.
Though it may ruffle a few feathers to say so, we are fully in agreement with Mr. Franklin on this point, and we are sure that anyone, given an opportunity to observe this noble bird in its native habitat, would feel the same.
Is there a reason that so many of these similes are, both literally and figuratively, for the birds? We suspect that it's a phenomenon we discussed at some length in Issue No. 10, namely, the relentless anthropocentrism in language that tends to reduce any living thing that is not human to something inferior and wanting. This seems quite unfair in the case of birds, since their distinguishing capacity, flight, is the one that humankind has always most coveted.
What is perhaps more insidious, however, is the preponderance of figures of speech in English based on only two of the two dozen or so orders of birds: the earlier noted Anseriformes (broadly, waterfowl), and the Galliformes, many of whom have been noted already in this article. "Wherefore?" you may ask. Why should human culture, over millennia, have developed a much closer association with these two orders of birds than with others, to the degree that they have integrated themselves seamlessly into our discourse? We suspect that the blame for this, which humankind must bear, albatross-like, is simple: species from these two orders of birds have proven to be the tastiest. It's no accident we value the bird in hand over two of its cousins in the bush: the bird in hand is only a step away from being coq au vin. And of course it's laudable that the organization Ducks Unlimited exists to preserve the habitats of waterfowl, but part of the agenda of that organization is to insure that there will always be enough ducks to shoot!
In the end we did not make a decision about our tins of foie gras, and simply left them in the larder, between the fiddleheads and the fungi porcini. Here's a recent account of Chicago's foie gras brouhaha, in which there are new developments almost daily:
New DNA studies threaten to upset the long-standing apple cart of bird taxonomy, but it may be some comfort to know that even in the new system, fowl and waterfowl (called Galloanserae in newspeak) are one another's closest relatives and sisters to the remainder of all birds, who are to be called the Neoaves. You can read all about that here:
English owes the figurative use of "albatross" to Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who we quote at the beginning of the article. If you didn't read The Rime of the Ancient Mariner in high school, or even if you did, it's a great way to spend a rainy afternoon:

Steve Reid Ensemble | 19/11/07
Some hip cats may tell you that Steve Reid made his recording debut playing on Martha and the Vandellas' Motown classic – 'Dancing in the Street' or that he's played with the likes of James Brown, Miles Davies and Sun Ra but there's something poignantly satisfying to know that he's still out there doing his thing, making creative, life affirming music on display in the energy and innovation on the new album – Daxaar .
Bringing together the playful electronic textures of Kieran Hebden aka Four Tet and the local talents of Senegal's best jazz musicians; the Steve Reid Ensemble has created what Giles Peterson calls "a rhythmic feast for those who like their jazz out there".
The ensemble will premiere this new material with a special live show at the Barbican in London on Tuesday 20th November as part of the London Jazz Festival in association with BBC Radio 3 and Serious.
In the meantime, have a look at this short film showing the endearing charm of the ensemble recording, performing and relaxing amongst the lovely people and landscape of Senegal.Daxaar is released on 19th November but you can pre-order from our Mart now.

As an experiment, Marisa and I lowered the download credit cost of kits a while back. Since then, we've decided that the pricing is a bit too low: some kits have end up costing fewer download credits than some individual items to download, which doesn't seem right! The other issue is that kit file sizes are generally quite large, and we've been serving more downloads than we can sustain, given the number of donations we've received.
Because of the large file sizes and the cost of bandwidth and storage space, the idea behind full kit downloads has always been that they are a kind of "bonus", or "thank you" for people who donate: others are free to download kit items individually as they become available, which is less of a strain on our resources. Almost ALL kit items show up on the site for individual download at some point, so even people who never donate can effectively download entire kits for free over the course of several days using their free credits.
All this is to say that we will be raising the number of download credits required to download kits. Kits will still be offered at a substantial download credit discount of 50% (so downloading a kit will require approximately half the number of download credits it would take to download all the kit items individually). We are also considering reserving full kit downloads for people who have helped support the site by donating. (You can donate now by visiting our donation page, if you'd like. For as little as $5 you can help keep this site going!).
The good news, for those of you who want to maximize the download credits you receive from donating, is that I am in the process of implementing full bundle downloads! For the time being, full bundles will be offered at a huge 75% discount in download credits: so you will be able to download a full bundle for 1/4 of what the items would cost you in download credits if downloaded individually.
These changes will be gradually rolled out as per my last announcement: some people will see the new prices and full bundle downloads right away; others won't see the changes for a week or two.
As always, our goal remains to be as generous as we can with our downloads and licenses, without going bankrupt. As always, we want to make sure that everyone is aware of any changes that happen on the site, and the motivation behind them. If you have any feedback, don't hesitate to let us know. Thanks for being part of Pixel Scrapper!
