His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen.On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school. Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement. "Guess what, Mom," he shouted, and then said those words that will forever remain a lesson to me... "I've been chosen to clap and cheer."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;An eyewitness account from New York City, on a cold day in December, some years ago: A little boy, about 10-years-old, was standing before a shoe store on the roadway, barefooted, peering through the window, and shivering with cold.A lady approached the young boy and said, "My, but you're in such deep thought staring in that window!""I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes," was the boy's reply.The lady took him by the hand, went into the store, and asked the clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy. She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel. He quickly brought them to her.She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and, removing her gloves, knelt down, washed his little feet, and dried them with the towel.By this time, the clerk had returned with the socks. Placing a pair upon the boy's feet, she purchased him a pair of shoes.She tied up the remaining pairs of socks and gave them to him... She patted him on the head and said, "No doubt, you will be more comfortable now."As she turned to go, the astonished boy caught her by the hand, and looking up into her face, with tears in his eyes, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;asked her,"Are you God's wife?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Mary Lou Blish - Spot Dunckel &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2669653736457941443-2307152626751407905?l=askhankdunckel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/feeds/2307152626751407905/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2669653736457941443&amp;postID=2307152626751407905' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/2307152626751407905'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/2307152626751407905'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/04/kids-stories.html' title='Kids Stories'/><author><name>Hank Dunckel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09106934567749042042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/SgAxbziQ7QI/AAAAAAAAAfM/HyUlzrwlbGI/S220/dtom-shirt-for-den-2.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/SAAIEh7cDsI/AAAAAAAAAG8/H5ajbWeNF2E/s72-c/kids.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669653736457941443.post-6210503123256025295</id><published>2008-04-07T17:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-07T17:04:48.120-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Talking With Heroes: How to Help Talking with Heroes</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://talkingwithheroes.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-to-help-talking-with-heroes.html#links"&gt;Talking With Heroes: How to Help Talking with Heroes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2669653736457941443-6210503123256025295?l=askhankdunckel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://talkingwithheroes.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-to-help-talking-with-heroes.html#links' title='Talking With Heroes: How to Help Talking with Heroes'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/feeds/6210503123256025295/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2669653736457941443&amp;postID=6210503123256025295' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/6210503123256025295'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/6210503123256025295'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/04/talking-with-heroes-how-to-help-talking.html' title='Talking With Heroes: How to Help Talking with Heroes'/><author><name>Hank Dunckel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09106934567749042042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/SgAxbziQ7QI/AAAAAAAAAfM/HyUlzrwlbGI/S220/dtom-shirt-for-den-2.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669653736457941443.post-1617739870610167999</id><published>2008-04-03T08:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-03T08:57:09.951-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Want to SAVE 20 % or more on YOUR fuel Cost?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/R_T6jpPsNMI/AAAAAAAAAGE/G8ZmfEMaCbk/s1600-h/Ethos+Race+Car+%232.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5185044561284314306" style="FLOAT: left;

But my line of work is in petroleum for about 31 years now, so here are some tricks to get more of  your money's worth for every gallon..    Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work in San Jose, CA we deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline. One day is diesel the next day is jet fuel, and gasoline, regular and premium grades.  We have 34-storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000 gallons.    Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their  storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground  the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role.  A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.    When you're filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle to a fast mode. If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3)stages: low, middle, and high. In slow mode you should be pumping on low speed, thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are  pumping on the fast rate, some other liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you're getting less   worth for your money.    One of the most important tips is to fill up when your gas tank is HALF FULL or HALF EMPTY. The reason for this is, the more gas you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that every gallon is actually the exact amount.    Another reminder, if there is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas, DO NOT fill up--most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is being delivered, and you might pick up some of the dirt that normally settles on the bottom.  Hope this will help you get the most value for your money. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Hank Dunckel&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;ForEarthOnline.com/RoRClub&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2669653736457941443-4997167870409835410?l=askhankdunckel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/feeds/4997167870409835410/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2669653736457941443&amp;postID=4997167870409835410' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/4997167870409835410'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/4997167870409835410'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/03/tips-on-pumping-gas.html' title='TIPS on PUMPING GAS'/><author><name>Hank Dunckel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09106934567749042042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/SgAxbziQ7QI/AAAAAAAAAfM/HyUlzrwlbGI/S220/dtom-shirt-for-den-2.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669653736457941443.post-3455246420799484187</id><published>2008-03-24T07:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-24T07:54:25.781-07:00</updated><title type='text'>For Earth</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.forearthonline.net/RoRClub"&gt;http://www.ForEarthonline.net/RoRClub&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/03/922-new-flash-just-few-minutes-ago-pain.html#links"&gt;#links&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2669653736457941443-3455246420799484187?l=askhankdunckel.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/03/922-new-flash-just-few-minutes-ago-pain.html#links' title='For Earth'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/feeds/3455246420799484187/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2669653736457941443&amp;postID=3455246420799484187' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/3455246420799484187'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2669653736457941443/posts/default/3455246420799484187'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://askhankdunckel.blogspot.com/2008/03/for-earth.html' title='For Earth'/><author><name>Hank Dunckel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09106934567749042042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nxTT1iM3mag/SgAxbziQ7QI/AAAAAAAAAfM/HyUlzrwlbGI/S220/dtom-shirt-for-den-2.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669653736457941443.post-9131498932418988819</id><published>2008-03-24T07:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-24T07:51:23.119-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='forEarth Unsers Ethos Fr Fuel Savings Hank Dunckel'/><title type='text'>922 -

The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative." W. Clement Stone&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The longer I live the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company . . . a church . . . a home."Charles Swindoll&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude."Charles Swindoll&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face."William Makepeace Thackeray&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I've never been poor, only broke.

We get SCREWED (2) TWO ways at the pump these wonderful times.  (A) LESS ENERGY or BANG for the BUCK.

As temperatures rise during warmer months, the gasoline expands, meaning customers get less energy per gallon.

Speeding, rapid acceleration and braking wastes gasoline. It can lower your gas mileage by 33 percent at highway speeds and by 5 percent around town. Sensible driving is also safer for you and others, so you may save more than gas money.&lt;br /&gt;• Observe the Speed Limit. While each vehicle reaches its optimal fuel economy at a different speed (or range of speeds), gas mileage usually decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 mph. As a rule of thumb, you can assume that each 5 mph you drive over 60 mph is like paying an additional $0.21 per gallon for gas.&lt;br /&gt;• Remove Excess Weight. Avoid keeping unnecessary items in your vehicle, especially heavy ones. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle could reduce your MPG by up to 2%. The reduction is based on the percentage of extra weight relative to the vehicle's weight and affects smaller vehicles more than larger ones.&lt;br /&gt;• Avoid Excessive Idling. Idling gets 0 miles per gallon. Cars with larger engines typically waste more gas at idle than do cars with smaller engines.&lt;br /&gt;• Use Cruise Control. Using cruise control on the highway helps you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, will save gas.&lt;br /&gt;• Use Overdrive Gears. When you use overdrive gearing, your car's engine speed goes down. This saves gas and reduces engine wear.&lt;br /&gt;• Keep tires properly inflated. You can improve your gas mileage by around 3.3 percent by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure. Under-inflated tires can lower gas mileage by 0.4 percent for every 1 psi drop in pressure of all four tires. Properly inflated tires are safer and last longer.&lt;br /&gt;• Use the Recommended Grade of Motor Oil. You can improve your gas mileage by 1-2 percent by using the manufacturer's recommended grade of motor oil. For example, using 10W-30 motor oil in an engine designed to use 5W-30 can lower your gas mileage by 1-2 percent. Using 5W-30 in an engine designed for 5W-20 can lower your gas mileage by 1-1.5 percent. Also, look for motor oil that says "Energy Conserving" on the API performance symbol to be sure it contains friction-reducing additives.&lt;br /&gt;Source: U.S. Department of Energy, &lt;a href="http://www.fueleconomy.gov/"&gt;http://www.fueleconomy.gov/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please go to FuelEconomy.gov and Chart your actual MPG on more than one car&lt;br /&gt;and print out a report.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Compare it to your EPA Est. MPG and what you are really getting these days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hank&lt;br /&gt;RoRClubSave.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS: Get out of the car and walk in the BANK, Drive Thru ETC and feel better and SAVE tons of Emissions and Fuel.
