Focus on Macs in the Enterprise
Read how Australia's St. Columba Anglican School enabled its bring-your-own-technology rollout.
With Parallels Desktop for Mac, your Mac users can seamlessly run both Windows and Mac OS X applications side-by-side with speed, control and confidence. Business users can experience as much or as little Windows as they want.

Best of all, IT can lock down, secure, and control the settings that matter most.
Configurable, policy-compliant solution
Our Mass Deployment application lets you centrally configure and control Parallels Desktop. Pre-configuring virtual machines allows "lights-out" deployment, and saves you time because new Macs can be deployed in a matter of minutes instead of hours or days using standard Mac management tools.

Even if you don't have a formal BYOD program, the new reality is that there are personal devices in your business. Smartphones, iPads, and Macs are there, and you might not realize the risks they present. Parallels and our partners can help. We partner with leaders in security and management to offer solutions that make it easier to keep up with these changes.
From Parallels, the industry leader in making Windows and Mac work together seamlessly, comes the Parallels Management Suite Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. Our first offering, Parallels Management-Mac is the easy way to extend your existing SCCM infrastructure to fully manage Macs with the same tools, processes and people who manage your PCs. Combined with Parallels Desktop for Mac Enterprise Edition, you have a complete solution to manage your policy compliant Windows stack on Macs as well.

Watch a webinar on how Parallels and JAMF work together.
Inside your organization, a flood of personal mobile devices catches you by surprise. Whether or not you have a formal "bring your own device" (BYOD) policy, you have personal devices accessing your network. Outside, the mobile ecosystem is growing exponentially in complexity and security risks. Mobilisafe's unique Mobile Risk Management solution allows your employees to use the device they want while you secure your company data. Simple to set up, with Mobilisafe you can eliminate risks from mobile devices in minutes.
The hardware and software requirements for Parallels Desktop for Mac Enterprise Edition are:
Note: Mac OS X Leopard v10.5.x is not supported in this version of Parallels Desktop.
To get information about your Mac OS X version, type of processor, and amount of memory, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu.
Note: Internet connection is required for product activation, updates, and select features.
* Virtual machine operating systems - such as Windows, Linux, and Solaris - are not included.
Academic institutions of all sizes are facing technology challenges. Shrinking funding, rising tuition, the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) reality. The new world of technology requires new tools to respond and ensure that the students graduating are equipped to succeed.
Support BYOD for students, faculty and staff
Reduced funding levels and the rise of BYOD means that academic institutions everywhere are seeing an explosion of Macs, iPads and iPhones. We can help. Using Parallels Desktop Enterprise Edition, anyone on campus can use any Mac or Windows app needed for study, all from one Mac. Add the Parallels Mobile app for iOS devices and students, faculty and staff can access and us all of their Mac and Windows applications even if they don't have their Mac with them.
If your institution uses Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager to manage PCs and other Windows devices, our first Parallels Management Suite offering, Parallels Management - Mac, can extend your existing tools, policies and procedures to manage the Macs on your network.
Save time, money and space
By using Parallels Desktop to run multiple operating systems on a single computer, you can stretch your hardware budget farther than ever. Labs need less space and use less energy, so you save operating costs as well. Plus if a virtual machine is corrupted, it's easy to just delete it and copy a fresh one to the Mac, rather than spending days rebuilding the Mac from the ground up.
Prepare students for the real world
New technologies being used in classrooms and for assignments mean that students and faculty need to be able to use a variety of technologies. In addition, the workplace your students are headed toward is a cross-platform world. By using Macs to run Windows applications, students can be well prepared using just one computer.
Academic discounts maximize your budget
Special academic pricing is available for Parallels Desktop for institutions of all sizes. Plus our Parallels Desktop Enterprise subscription dramatically simplifies deployment and means you'll always have the latest version of Parallels Desktop. Contact us today so that we can create a customized licensing plan tailed to your school's needs.

Lifetime has pitched a new reality show that will show women giving birth in the wild. It was inspired by a viral video of a woman who delivered her fourth baby in a tropical stream all by herself while her husband recorded it.
Critics are saying that the show is too dangerous and should not be aired.
I spoke to Dr. Andrew Weiss of the Obstetrics and Gynecology department at Ministry Saint Michael's Hospital in Stevens Point about the show. Not only does he deliver babies for a living, but he is also an avid outdoors-man so he is the perfect person to talk to about such a show. Listen to the interview here:
Dr. Andrew Weiss - Born in the Wild Part 1
Dr. Andrew Weiss - Born in the Wild Part 2
Considering a home birth?
- Why are you leaning toward birthing outside a hospital?
- Are you working with a doctor you trust?
- Have you delivered naturally before without incident?
- Is it worth the risk?

The veteran entertainer recently admitted she was hesitant to sign up for the leading role of Joyce Brewster after so many years away from the big screen, but she had no regrets about her decision once she started working with her on-screen son, funnyman Seth Rogen.
Fletcher wanted to film The Guilt Trip, about an inventor who hits the road with his mum to sell his latest product, by having her leading stars head out on a real road trip across America, but Streisand promptly put an end to that idea - because she didn't want to travel more than 45 minutes away from her three Malibu mansions.
She tells Time magazine, ""I love my home.""

Attractions at Kew A-Z
Some ancient peoples thought this tree was evil because its wood quickly turned red when cut, as if bleeding.
With its ancestors originally hailing from the mountains of China, the orchard apple is now a common sight across Britain, from private gardens to commercial orchards.
Located beside the Jodrell Laboratory in the northeast corner of the Gardens, the present Aquatic Garden was installed in 1909.
Kew's Arboretum stretches over the majority of the Gardens' 121 leafy hectares (300 acres).
An Atlas cedar graces the White House South Lawn in Washington, DC. When President Carter designed a tree house for his daughter Amy, it was built in this tree.
Kew created its first Azalea Garden in 1882, on the site of a former American garden.
Kew is teeming with badgers - there are over 20 setts in the Gardens.
No English garden is complete without its bees, and Kew is no exception.
Berberis Dell was created between 1869 and 1875. It was once a gravel pit and is Kew's third-biggest excavation after the Lake and Rhododendron Dell.
This tree is sometimes know as the 'widowmaker'; workers beneath big-cone pines are advised to wear hard hats so they don't get injured by falling cones.

Ohio is the most depressed sports state in the entire country. No, not one of them, THEE MOST DEPRESSED. Having lived in Ohio for nearly the first 20 years of my life I have seen Cleveland Browns fans fly around like the Energizer Bunny with the excitement of another new year during training camp. Unfortunately after about week 5 or 6 they are heart broken and defeated =.
However these three 10-year-old girls might have the solution for the Browns problems on the field and who is calling the shots on the sideline. Spoiler alert! He wears a pretty awesome sweater vest.
There you have it Browns fans! Hire the Sweater Vest and all your problems will be solved!

I'm not sure I understand the competition to come up with the next best fried thing, and I'm not here to judge, but every year, when the State Fair of Texas (Sept. 27–Oct. 20) announces its list of fried food offerings, my ears perk up. I am excited to know what's being tossed into the vat next.
Recipes:Â Corn dogs, fried coke, funnel cakes and more. Try these fair faves at home.
Hot ChocolateWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published August 16, 2013
I know it sounds crazy to drink hot chocolate when the temperature is still regularly above 90 degrees. But on a recent trip to Houston, I couldn't resist the chocolate confection with chocolate made in-house from cocoa beans imported from Oaxaca at Hugo's, which serves its frothy cup with fresh, hot Mexican churros. Look for our story on Hugo's and its terrific hot chocolate in the Drink section of the December issue. Until then, do you know of any other spots in Texas that serve amazing hot chocolate?

A visit to the Texas Masonic Grand Lodge in WacoWritten by Matt Joyce | Published August 13, 2013
Right or wrong, the Freemasons are sometimes stereotyped as a closed group, characterized by secrecy and backroom power brokering. But when you come upon the massive Memorial Masonic Grand Lodge Temple in downtown Waco, it's hard to imagine the fraternal organization as a group of shrinking violets.
Tourism by Bus: A visit to San AntonioWritten by Matt Joyce | Published August 6, 2013
When I got to thinking about the concept of sightseeing by bus in Texas, San Antonio was one of the first destinations that came to mind. Not only does San Antonio have a walkable downtown with a dense concentration of tourism sites, its intercity bus-line stops are conveniently located in the city center. Still, I wasn't sure whether it would be practical or enjoyable to take a sightseeing trip by bus and foot. So I decided to give it a shot, purchasing a round-trip ticket between Austin and San Antonio for a 10-hour daytrip.
The Owl in ElginWritten by Lori Moffatt | Published August 2, 2013
I recently made the short drive from Austin to Elgin, a town about 25 miles east of the city via US 290. I'd heard about a new wine bar and home décor shop on the town's historic downtown strip, and I realized: While I frequently pass through Elgin on my way to Houston, I'd never really explored the town except to stop for barbecue at Southside Market or Meyer's.

What's your favorite fried State Fair dish? Do you have a similar fried recipe to share? Please do! We'll be glad to share more.
Corn Dogs
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup flour
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 1/8 tsp. pepper
- ¼ tsp. sugar
- 4 tsp. baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 ¼ cup milk
- Vegetable oil for frying
- About 16 beef hot dogs (2 packs)
- 16 wooden skewers
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add milk and egg to the bowl and whisk well. Insert skewers into hot dogs, then dip into the batter to cover hot dog completely. Cook battered hot dogs in a large pot of vegetable oil until golden brown.
Fried Butter
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 2 sticks butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- Â 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- Salt and pepper
- Vegetable oil for frying
Using an electric mixer, cream together butter, cream cheese, salt and pepper (to taste) until smooth. Form small balls of the mixture and arrange on a parchment-paper lined pan, then freeze them. Coat the frozen balls in flour, egg, and then breadcrumbs and freeze again. Fry (oil at 350 degrees) balls for 10 to 15 seconds until just light golden.
Fried Coke
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups cola
- Â 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Vegetable oil for deep frying
- Powdered sugar
- Cola syrup
In a large bowl, beat the eggs, and then add the cola and sugar. Blend together the flour, baking powder and salt. Slowly add dry ingredients to cola mixture until batter is smooth. Fry (oil at 375 degrees) small dough balls for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Dust hot coke balls with powdered sugar. Drizzle with cola syrup.
Funnel Cakes
- Â 1 egg
- Â 2/3 cup milk
- Â 2 tablespoons sugar
- Â 1-1/2 cups flour, sifted
- Â 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Â 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Â Vegetable oil
- Â Confectioners' sugar
Combine beaten egg and milk. In a separate bowl, combine sugar, flour, salt and baking powder together. Slowly add the egg/milk mixture and beat until smooth. Pour batter into a funnel, using finger to keep tip closed. Hold funnel over hot oil (375 degrees), remove finger and allow batter to drop into oil (about 1/4 cup of batter at a time). Build a circular funnel cake starting from the center moving outward. Turn once, and remove from oil when golden brown. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve warm. Additional topping suggestions include cinnamon, strawberries, chocolate sauce, etc.
You can also use the funnel cake batter to make Fried Snickers.
Fried Snickers
- Â Snickers candy bars
- Â Popsicle sticks
- Â Funnel cake batter (see above)
- Â Oil
Insert popsicle sticks into Snickers bar from the bottom about half way up. Freeze Snickers until frozen solid. Dip frozen Snickers in the funnel cake batter. Fry until golden brown. Top with powdered sugar or caramel sauce if desired.
Fried Twinkies The Twinkie went away in November, but a private equity firm took over the Hostess brand after Hostess filed for bankruptcy. Twinkies are back on shelves. But, just in case, Little Debbie Cloud Cakes are apparently Twinkies' twin. I personally, don't like either.
- 6 Twinkies (frozen)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Strawberry Sauce (recipe follows)
- 4 cups vegetable oil
- Flour for dusting
Freeze Twinkies for several hours or overnight. Combine milk, vinegar and oil. In a separate mixing bowl, blend flour, baking powder and salt. Add wet ingredients into dry mixture and blend until smooth. Dust Twinkie with flour and dip into the batter. Place battered Twinkie into hot oil. Because the Twinkie will float, use a fryer-safe cooking utensil to keep it submerged and cooking evenly. Cook until it reaches a golden brown color.
Dust with powdered sugar. Optional: Strawberry topping.
Strawberry topping
- Â 1 pint of strawberries
- Â 1/3 cup sugar
Clean and cut strawberries in quarters. Combine strawberries and sugar in a saucepan and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Weekend getaways were clearly designed with a Gemini in mind. No fan of long, drawn-out excursions, the Twins much prefer to hop into the car, get to where they're going (and fast!) and sightsee like crazy once they're there.
Sitting around on a beach is for everyone else, thank you very much. Intellectually curious Geminis are always eager to learn from their travels, and one of the best ways to do this is by talking to the people at their destination. Who better to offer some local color and insight? The Twins enjoy having a traveling companion, if only to have someone to talk to! Those born under this sign don't feel a need to get every last bit of information while traveling, either -- a quick glimpse into things is just fine, and then it's off to the next place or activity on the agenda.
Will there be much in the Gemini's travel bag? Unlikely, since they'll pack as light as Air, the element which rules their sign. The Twins are also good to have along on a group tour, as they have a knack for synthesizing chunks of information and making it easily understandable. Consider them a pocket tour guide. Those born under this sign are also street-smart and possessed of good common sense, an ideal combination for the intrepid traveler.

Yesterday in Gwangju I attended the Global English Teachers Association (GETA) symposium. The title was 'Transforming Learners, Teachers, and the English Classroom.
This was recommended to me as a professional development conference. For Native English Teachers it was anything but.
From the first presentation to the last NETs were bashed. Within the first hour a reference was made to crimes being commited by NETs. There were a few laughs during the day at our expense, and the overall purpose of the day seems to be to make the argument that monies would be better spent training Korean teacher's rather than recruiting and hiring NETs.
One discussion group was held entirely in Korea (although it was an English conference.) The topic of that presentation? 'Transforming ELT in Korea.'
This was not a small break out group - this was one of two late morning discussion groups. Native English speakers who were already seated in the auditorium were told to attend the 'Transforming ELT in Asia' discussion panel.
The fact that the Transforming ELT in Korea panel was held in Korean shows exactly how much input NETs have in the discussion.
There were a few interesting presentation in the afternoon during the break out sessions. These were mostly by grad students presenting their research. But the overall theme for the day was that NETs are bad for the development of teaching English in Korea.
The original poster mailed the conference's booklet to me, and I've typed out the first part of the plenary session below. Titled "Transforming ELT in Korea" by WonKey Lee (이완기) of Seoul National University of Education, this portion is called "Transform, Transcend, and Reform":
A former head of the Samsung Group remarked that one should transform everything except one's wife and one's children. But today I wish to go one step further than he did. I will leave my wife alone, but I will argue that we do need to transform our children and their English learning, because English learning is going to be a more and more important part of transforming them.
Why transform our children? Briefly, because the world that our children will grow up in is growing up too. Like our children, the world is no longer stable, but rather meta-stable, like a bicycle in which every working part has been replaced many times, or like the human body itself. The body only remains what it is through a process of constant transformation. This constant transformation necessarily changes every cell of the body not once but many times. Similarly, in a meta-stable world, only constant transformation can ensure survival. Staying put, or hanging around, means decay and disappearance. As Dewey said, if we go on teaching today as we taught yesterday, we rob our children of their tomorrows. I will talk about this somewhat less briefly below.
But why transform English learning? Briefly, because learning English as a FOREIGN language in a world which is using English as an international language means staying put and hanging around, decay and disappearance. If we go on learning English as a FOREIGN language in a world where it no longer plays the role of a language spoken by American and British people in faraway places, then we rob our children of their tomorrows.
But what exactly does "transform" mean? As every English teacher knows, meanings are only exact in exact contexts. But exact contexts can be very hard to explain. This is why, of course, our teachers find it generally easier to replace an English word with a Korean one rather than to define an English word in English. The dictionary meaning of 'transform' is 'to change completely in form, appearance, or nature.'
Here I'm going to use my English word "transform" to mean both of the two other English words: "transcend" and "reform."
By "transcend", I really mean to totally demolish the existing system and make another different system by going beyond the limits of the current system.
For example, I mean teaching English as a global language and not as a FOREIGN language at all. Now, in our context, in the Korean context, that means that we need to think of English as a new Asian language, a trans-Asian lingua franca, and not as an American one. After all, English was not originally American either! But English was transformed from a European language into an American one, and now it is being transformed again. This transformation will mean demolishing the existing system of English, and of English teaching, and making a very different system.
And the word 'reform' is defined as 'to improve by changing or removing undesirable quantities. By "reform" I mean to partially add something new or change some parts of the existing system so that it can be regarded as different or improved from the previous system, like replacing the parts of a bicycle or replacing old cells with new ones.
For example, I mean that we need to replace "native-speaking English teachers" with Korean bilingual teachers. After all, we can't depend forever on those expatriate native- speaking English teachers for English teaching in Korea. When we replace "native-speaking English teachers" with bilingual Korean natives we will have teachers we can count on for life.
He mentions native speakers again, a few pages later:
As English becomes a lingua franca, or an international language, the status of English as a foreign language, that is, as the native language of a group of foreigners, will also diminish. That is, the status of English as a second language, or lingua franca, may keep increasing. As a result, "nativeness" in English accents may also decrease, and also the native English speaker as a model may also decrease in importance or status. That means competence in English is likely to be favored over nativeness. Thus, it becomes not important or necessary to try hard to resemble English native speakers in speaking English. Meaning-deliverability in a reasonably intelligible pronunciation, and meaning understandability will be essential for the use of English language for communicative purposes.
A variety of local accents in using English may be appreciated, and will be no problem if meaning delivery and meaning-getting take place successfully. Thus, competent bilingual speakers of English will probably increase, as more and more young learners start to learn English at their early ages. People may not need to go to English speaking Western countries to learn English, because they can have easier access to English and more opportunities to learn English in their own country or in their neighbouring countries.
And again a few more pages later:
There are a great number of native-speaking English teachers in all levels of schools as well as in private sector institutes across all Korea. Most of them have been doing a great job in teaching English in Korea, but some of them clearly have not met our initial expectations. Many, for example, do not want to go to provincial areas where they are really wanted because of the inconveniences of life there and the lack of cultural benefits. Chasing money or seeking pleasure in Korea instead of being dedicated to ELT is undoubtedly a problem. So now, it's getting more and more difficult to employ well-qualified teachers.
Employing native-speaking English teachers who are not sufficiently qualified to teach English in Korea is a lot more costly than training Korean English teachers to be competent in English and English teaching methodology. To employ one foreign teacher we need to pay expenses twice more than employing two new Korean teachers. In addition, to employ foreign teachers is a yearly task, because once they finish their contracts many go home (and some even do so before they finish!). In contrast, once Korean teachers are trained and qualified with some initial investment, they will not incur extra cost until they retire. Training Korean teachers is more economical. And well-trained Korean teachers can do better in ELT than most foreign teachers.
So, it is necessary and desirable to reduce the number of foreign teachers every year, and to invest more budgets in training Korean teachers in improving English proficiency and teaching methodology. We can't rely on native-speaking English teachers forever. We are planning to replace native-speaking English teachers with competent, bilingual Korean teachers of English in the long run. Then, only highly qualified native-speaking English teachers could be invited in a smaller number, and be used as teacher trainers of Korean English teachers.
Certainly it makes more sense to simply train local teachers rather than import thousands. And, if spoken English is to take a backseat to grammar and reading---which it does---if the skills NSETs are brought in to teach aren't considered important or highly-regarded---and they aren't---and if NSETs aren't respected and appreciated as professionals---'cause they aren't---then yes, it's simply more efficient to train Korean English teachers. Though I hate to see that conclusion arrived at by misinformation and distortions.
I will say again, not for my longtime readers but for the benefit of any Koreans who come here, that the biggest reason some teachers "clearly have not met our initial expectations" is because of the lack of planning and support that has accompanied them. Schools and co-teachers, now several years removed from the introduction of native speaker English teachers, still do not know what to do with them. I recall asking a co-teacher at the beginning of the semester what she would like me to teach, and she said "[the previous teacher] gave them candy." It's true that many NSETs are new and inexperienced, but remember that we are hired as native speaker assistant teachers, and are supposed to work in tandem with experienced Korean teachers. Then consider that these teachers are often not proficient or even basically competent in the language, and that some shirk their duties by not attending class with their assistant teacher and not attending the mandatory teachers' workshops.
Regarding attracting teachers to rural areas, as a person who spent a year in Gangjin county, I can attest that not even Korean teachers were happy about being there. In fact, when I was there the school chose not to use me, because it was phasing out native speakers in favor of using homeroom teachers to teach English, even though these teachers knew nothing of the language. And in some rural areas, there aren't even English teachers at all, and another subject teacher has to cover the English classes. The difficulties of attracting foreign teachers to rural areas has more to do with bureaucratic ineptitude than with the challenges of rural Korea.
For the benefit of Korean readers who have not visited my site before, I'll direct you to some links here where I've written more about the challenges native speaker English teachers face.
* (12/2/2009) In the Korea Herald, writing about mandatory culture classes for foreign teachers.
* (6/26/2009) Korea Herald: Just what makes a teacher "qualified"?

* (4/7/2009) Korea Herald: Stop the scatter-shot approach to English.
* (12/30/2008) Half of foreign teachers leave after one year? GREAT! That's an article that should be brought up every now and again, because a MOE official in charge of native speaker English teachers says``They are neither regular teachers nor lecturers who can conduct classes independently. They are `assistant teachers,' hence their teaching experience doesn't matter much,'' he said. ``Rather, it's better for students to have more new teachers so that they can meet various kinds of foreigners,'' he added.

You'll find links to other articles within those posts. And that's without addressing schools who don't honor contracts.
I've exchanged a few emails with the original poster, and I quote, with permission, part of the reply:
It was as bad as I posted. The written stuff is tame. I am not exaggerating when I say that by the end of the first session a presenter had made reference to NETs committing criminal acts.
When the last presenter said, 'We shouldn't be so hard on the native English teachers, some of them are doing a good job.' I knew I had missed a bunch of NET slamming. Also, the break out session on improving ESL teaching in Korea was held in Korean - I wonder why?
I have never felt so uncomfortable at a gathering of academics in my life. And I have 10 years of working in a research environment under my belt.
It's been en vogue for a while to discuss the "myth of the native speaker" in literature on second-language acquisition, so I'm aware of the arguments against using native speaker English teachers. Indeed, at the TESOL Conference last month the plenary speaker there, too, referenced native speakers backpacking across Asia. The author makes a good point that English is a global language, and shouldn't be treated as a foreign one---thus one only studied as a subject not a language---but I don't like divorcing English from its speakers. I wonder if the "myth of the native speaker" turns up in literature on teaching other languages, or if it's written by "foreigners" that, say, disregarding polite speech in Korean or Japanese is appropriate.
Teachers here soon learn that English as we know it isn't taught in South Korea, but rather English is studied as a subject. It's a rude awakening to see just how separated English is from its speakers in Korea, and that native speakers in the schools seem more tolerated than valued. I can't say I'm surprised to see Koreans speaking out for the need to replace native speakers---after all, with the new tests, the new lecturers, and the Indians, the writing's on the wall---but I think it's inappropriate for an "academic" conference that, although I put it in quotation marks, had Korean professors from all over the country. Just as foreign attendees question "why am I here?" at discussion panel conducted in Korean, so too might native speaker English teachers as "why am I here?" in a system that doesn't seem to want them.

(Reuters) - MetLife Inc
The deal, for $6.4 billion in bank deposits, had been in the works for more than a year with regulatory review the main reason for the delay.
The two companies in September tweaked the deal structure to make it subject to the approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, rather than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp, and won approval in mid-December.
Fairfield, Connecticut-based GE reached the deal to buy the deposit-taking unit in December 2011, with an eye toward making its GE Capital finance unit less dependent on borrowing.
New York-based MetLife said the deal reflected its desire to focus on its insurance and employee benefit operations.

COLVILLE, Wash. - Firefighters and police have reopened the road in downtown Colville that was blocked due to efforts in fighting the devastating blaze at Saundra's Furniture and Design.
Investigators are spending Sunday looking into what may have caused the fire.
KHQ has a crew heading to Colville this morning and we will update you as soon as we get any additional information.
Previous Coverage:
COLVILLE, Wash - A fire broke out Saturday night completely destroying Saundra's Furniture and Design in downtown Colville. Fire investigators say at this point they have not determined the cause. KHQ spoke exclusively Saturday night with the store owner, Saundra Wilma. She said she initially thought the cause was electrical in nature, but she was also told that arson is a possibility.
Wilma tells KHQ that at 8:14 on Saturday she was told a small, white car stopped in front of the store and threw an object through the front window, then drove off. Regardless of the cause, the building was fully engulfed within minutes, with flames reaching as high as 35 feet in the air.
Colville Fire Department, along with assistance from the Arden and Kettle Falls fire departments, worked quickly to extinguish the fire within a few hours. Crews remained there overnight to make sure there were no flare-ups. Colville Fire Chief Joe Hirsch tells us that there were 2 other fires of note nearby in the recent months, one at Tiger Trucking and one at Davis Auto Rebuild.
Local law enforcement is investigating the fire at Davis Auto Rebuild as a possible arson. Meanwhile, the fire at Tiger Trucking is under investigation by insurance companies as an arson, but not by law enforcement.
At this point, no other businesses are affected by the fire. However, this does affect the lives of 12 employees who worked at Saundra's Furniture and Design. Wilma says she has insurance and plans on rebuilding on the same corner, if possible. This building has stood in Colville for the last 57 years.
It used to be Egger's Furniture. Saundra took over 20 years ago and recently passed the store off to her daughter.

Where are the links? I need more time to go through 100+ links! And many of us submitted in the week before the deadline and our links did not show up. Is there going to be a Part 2? Hope so.

it would be really nice to still see the blogs that took part. I hadn't finished visiting them. Very disappointed!

- ytsmom said...
I agree! It takes a long time to look at over 100 links. Most of us are very busy and can only check a limited number every day. The links should still be available, even if the linky party is closed. Very disappointing! Not good, MBS!

I set aside time to really look through these great links and they are gone. So frustrating. I hope we hear what happened.

I sure enjoyed the links and seeing how others manage their stash and for those who shared more pictues of their sewing rooms, thank you, I always learn from others.
I was able to get through about half of the links, doing a few each day and am sad to have come back to see some more now that I have more time and find they are gone. Any chance you can show them again to give more time to those of us who cannot get through them so quickly?
Thanks for a great link up.

You have just posted a studio tour for Jo's Country Junction which still suggests that people link up their studio but the list has been gone for a while. What happened? I hadn't finished working through the posts. Odd as there is a giveaway draw offered for those taking part and it seems that some didn't get the chance although they were submitting within the "rules"...

October 8, 1976 Dear Wes, Many thanks for your letter of October 6 and the sentiments that it contains. You may be interested in a copy of a memorandum which I sent to the employees. The last paragraph is in keeping with your thoughts, and certainly there are many individuals and groups that are entitled to their share of the credit for the great success that Utah has attained. Subsequent experience has confirmed your view that the Construction group were entitled to great credit, and probably more credit than they generally received, in furthering Utahs development as a mining company. It is also true that you personally made a very great contribution to Utahs growth as a mining company a view I have acknowledged in public as well as to you in private. All of your old friends in Utah will be pleased to know of your return to the Bay Area and to your new residence in Belvedere. Best regards always,
EWL/nf Mr. Weston Bourret 5136 Oakmont Drive Tucson, Arizona 85718
