LAZAR KAHN (Parents Feist & Knedel Kahn)
was born in Schweich 23 May 1789. He moved to Luxembourg in 1816 and there married Jeanette Isaac Lazard (b. 20 January 1794 to parents Isaac Lazard b. 1758 Luxembourg and Janton (Goton) Levy b. Haute Yutz, Thionville, France). Lazar was a merchant, renting out horses and carriages. He is believed to have fought for Napoleon and to have been awarded La Medaille de Ste Helene (the Napoleon Medal) for surviving.
They had one known child, Victor Kahn (Luxembourg 1827). He is believed to have had brothers and sisters, but none has so far been traced.

A stretch of three non-conference, top-10 matchups to begin the season ended as the No. 16 Aggies fell behind early to No. 2 UConn and never threatened. The Huskies used a 41-22 second half to bury A&M at Reed, 81-50.
Youthful mistakes and missed opportunities were the story of the night for the No. 13 A&M women's basketball team as the Aggies fell 63-58 to No. 9 Penn State at Reed Arena.
Only two seasons ago, a determined A&M women's basketball team hoisted the national championship trophy, stunning the basketball world as the Aggies surged to defeat traditional juggernauts Baylor, Stanford and Notre Dame. As A&M enters a new league, few faces from the title team remain as the Aggies begin their search for leadership on an inexperienced, albeit talented, roster.

CRYSTAL FALLS - David Anthony Levack was found guilty today of felony counts of open murder, felony murder, home invasion, and witness intimidation in the death of 81-year-old Joyce Johnson of Stambaugh Township.
Levack, 45, was accused of killing Johnson before she could testify against him in a stolen property trial on Sept. 27, 2011.
The jury was asked to render a guilty or not guilty verdict on four separate charges:
Article Video
- Open murder, which can either be first degree premeditated murder or second degree murder. Jurors found Levack guilty of first degree premeditated murder.
- Felony murder, which is murder committed while another felony crime is being or has been committed.
- Home invasion, which is breaking into a dwelling either with a dangerous weapon or while another person is lawfully in the dwelling.
Article Photos
- Witness intimidation, which is discouraging someone from attending, giving information, or testifying at a court proceeding.

For a Lifetime: Victorian Diamond Hair Comb
A marvelous double prong comb of natural tortoise shell unfolds its hues of golden honey and warm amber in a demonstration of the beauty of natural material. An arched tiara form of silver-topped 14k rose gold is set with one hundred forty-nine (149) old mine cut diamonds with a total estimated diamond weight of 3 carats in an alternating frill of glitter and shine. A curve of square set diamonds is the foundation for a series of motifs similar to the suites in a deck of playing cards with clubs spades and lozenge shapes dominating. The piece is a fine example of typical Victorian 19th century construction with its substantial and weighty metal work and employment of clusters of old mine cut diamonds placed in silver over gold.
Date: Circa 1880.
Measurements: 4-3/4 inches (12.1 cm) in total length. Diamond area is 3-3/8 of an inch (8.5 cm) in length by 3/4 inches (1.9 cm) in width. Weight of 29.5 grams (19.0 dwt).
Condition: Excellent to mint. One comb prong slightly more arched than the other (see side photograph).
Note: Diamonds have not been removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. All diamond weights have been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights.

The Clone Wars: Revenge
You will suffer. As I have suffered.play
Darth Maul began life as one of the Nightbrothers on Dathomir. Darth Sidious brutally trained his apprentice to be a weapon of the Sith as well as a scheming mastermind. A relentless and acrobatic warrior with an extremely dangerous double-ended lightsaber, Maul longed for revenge against the Jedi, to destroy the Order and restore power to the Sith. Defeated at the Battle of Naboo, Maul disappeared from the galaxy for over a decade before reemerging as a new threat during the Clone Wars.
Darth Maul was Darth Sidious' apprentice. Sidious' master plan of conquest in the galaxy relied upon Maul's prowess and combat abilities. But Maul, too, was a capable strategist who embarked on his own diabolical plot upon his resurrection.
Obi-Wan Kenobi battled Darth Maul in the heart of the Theed Royal Palace as the Battle of Naboo unfolded. Kenobi was nearly bested by Maul, but he struck back with a lightsaber blow that cut the Sith Lord in two. When Maul returned during the Clone Wars, he made vengeance against Kenobi a priority.
Qui-Gon Jinn is the first Jedi Master to have crossed blades with a Sith Lord in centuries—and survive. Jinn was ambushed by Maul while departing Tatooine, and escaped to tell the Jedi Council that the Sith had returned. Maul later killed Jinn during the Battle of Naboo.
Maul hails from the Nightbrothers of Dathomir, a bloodline that included brothers Feral and Savage Opress. Opress was in training to become a Sith apprentice to Count Dooku, but his loyalty remained with the Nightsisters. Savage was tasked by Mother Talzin to find Maul and became apprenticed to his brother.
Mother Talzin was responsible for the creation of Savage Opress as a dark side warrior. When Opress left Count Dooku's side, Talzin gave him a new task: She claimed that Darth Maul was still alive, living in exile in the Outer Rim, and that Savage had to seek him out. Once Savage returned with Maul, Talzin used her dark magic to restore his mind and body.
For over a decade after the Battle of Naboo, Maul lived in hiding in the depths of Lotho Minor, a junk planet. Maul's mind was shattered by his defeat. His driving desire to cling to life caused Maul to rebuild himself as an arachnid abomination, who scurried about in madness within the garbage caves of the rotten planet.
Maul survived with the help of Morley, a scheming Anacondan who lured the unwary into Maul's cave where they would be killed and eaten by the insane dark warrior.

The next 3 series variant to make its debut will be the 3 series touring / wagon (F31). We've now spotted it with virtually no camouflage remaining. Combined with the recently revealed F31 rear design patent CGIs (images inside), we now basically know how the F31 will look when it makes its debut at the AMI auto show in Leipzig in early June (for a likely market debut in the Fall).
Unlike the F11 5 series touring, the new 3 series touring model will make a return to the North American market. In an interview we had at the 2012 NAIAS with Paul Ferraiolo, Manager, Product Planning & Strategy of BMWNA, he confirmed that the next generation F31 3 series touring will make it stateside again:

Vishnu Performance Systems has pushed the tuning of the N54 platform to unprecedented levels with its N54 335i single turbo build, the first one successfully dyno'd.
The latest dyno has already achieved 627whp / 477 lb-ft. torque @ 22.5 PSI. The final power goal is an incredible 700whp!
See the dyno and highway run inside, along with full system technical details and ongoing progress of the build.
For a long time, motorists regarded air conditioning merely as a guarantee of a cool workplace when behind the wheel. During the early 1980s, the optional extra was predominantly ordered as protection against the midsummer heat inside the car, true to the motto: the heat has to stay out, irrespective of how hot the sun is. The greater the "refrigerator feeling" experienced by occupants was, the more effective an air conditioning system was considered to be.
However, over the years, consumers have changed their attitude and the demands on interior climate comfort have increased significantly. Whether in extreme heat, heavy rainfall or severe cold, a cosy interior climate has become a must.
In the case of the new BMW 3 Series, air conditioning experts go even a step … CONTINUED
SoCal BMW dealers were recently invited to the F30 Ride and Drive Event – a primer and first hands on driving experience for the all new 2012 3 series sedan. They were given the opportunity to drive the 2012 F30 328i and 335i and evaluate it against the outgoing E90 3 series as well as the competition – Mercedes C class and Audi A4.
BMW brought out a fleet of over 80+ F30s for the event and gave an opportunity for those in attendance to test the F30 both on the road and track (auto-cross format).
Just out the extensive event photos from our site member inside.
BMW of North America has unveiled a new advertising campaign that will feature a few digital shorts and have created a contest called "Zero to Desir3 in 5.9 Seconds". BMW is asking for contest participants to submit a 5.9second video showing how badly they desire the F30.
If your video is chosen as a winner, BMW will putting you in the driver's seat of a brand new 2012 BMW 3 Series Sedan, a national television spot and a series of homepage takeovers, designed to support of the launch of the all-new BMW 3 Series Sedan.
BMW is accepting submissions through facebook (http://www.facebook.com/bmwusa) and YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/bmwusa) starting today, through March 9. Then 30 finalists will be chosen to be voted on by the public! A winner will be announced … CONTINUED
Insideline recently strapped the 2012 328i with its turbo 4 cylinder N20 engine on the dyno and achieved even higher at-the-wheel power than the EAS Dyno we reported on recently.
On 91 octane and a dynojet, this F30 328i achieved 240hp / 257 lb-ft torque at the wheels
Assuming a 16% drivetrain loss for the sake of argument, this would equal approximately 286hp / 306 lb-ft torque at the crank. Compare this to the F30 328i's factory rating of 240hp / 255lb-ft torque at the crank. The 328i could be underrated by as much as 46 hp and 51 lb-ft torque. Impressive indeed!
Compare this to the EAS dyno which achieved 226hp / 230lb-ft torque at the wheels.
It's official: Only a couple of days after the first teaser, BMW announces their new M Performance Parts. Think of this program as the successor of the Performance parts avaiable for E8x 1 series and E9x 3 series.
Intitially, M Performance parts will be available for the F30 3 series, the F10 5 series, and the F20 1 series (not available in the US). Available are:
- Black kidney grilles
- M Performance exhaust systems
- M Performance brakes
- Carbon fiber front splitters
- M Performance steering wheel

The 2012 328i (F30) impresses again as Motor Trend comes in with their review and performance results of the F30 328i Sport Line model they recently tested.
In performance results, the 328i with its touted N20 turbo 4-cylinder engine managed to achieve a 5.6 second 0-60mph, quarter mile in 14.2 seconds @ 97.8 mph, and 0.90g on the skidpad.
All in all, Motor Trend feels that the 328i is better than the 335i. As they put it: Want to know the real kicker? Don't tell BMW, but the 328i is better than the 335i. I lapped both at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca during BMW's launch event. We brought both home to test (you'll be seeing the 335i First Test soon), and we all agree. Yes, the 335i … CONTINUED

'A day in the life' - a post for the Twitter event 'Museum Week UK'
I begin my day by checking our general library inbox for any inquiries that we might have received over the weekend. This morning [as usual] there were quite a few but they were mercifully straight forward so didn't take too long to answer. Next, I spent a very enjoyable hour squirreling away through our old photograph drawers for some interesting images to share with everyone during this Museum Week UK on Twitter and what treasures I have found [but more of that to come via Tweets from @amgueddfa_lib during the week]!
Vintage albums and photographs
Main Library photograph drawers
I also took some photographs of the pages of a giant old scrap book full of museum ephemera; it contains tickets, pamphlets, public announcement posters, order of services, lists of lectures and just about anything else you can stick down with heavy duty glue and sellotape…
However, my day begins in earnest with the post – as Assistant Librarian one of my main priorities is to manage the journal subscriptions. We maintain around 700 titles, a combination of paid subscriptions, exchanges and gifts. Therefore, after our Administration Assistant has opened and checked it, I weed out all the journals and record them onto our database. By doing this I am alerted to previous issues not received and will then chase them up with relevant suppliers. This time, there are no missing issues to chase but we have received a few duplicates, and [as always] these are from suppliers who categorically promised that no further duplicates would be sent out! Next, I count and measure the post so that at the end of the year I am able to supply our Principle Librarian with the total number of actual issues received and the meterage of space they will have covered. For instance, our statistics for 2013 were 1972 issues received that covered just over 11 metres of shelf space.
Next, I date stamp and separate them into departments. Our subscriptions naturally correspond with the curatorial departments, so we receive journals on the following disciplines: Art, Archaeology, Zoology, Botany, Geology and Industry and we also subscribe to more general subjects kept here in the Main Library. Once all this is done, it's time to go and shelve them in the departmental libraries. These are dotted all around the museum so I wait until I have a little pile, normally a few days' worth, before I go on my shelving travels.
My next task is to work through any invoices received in the post and this morning there quite a few. The way I process these has changed recently and whereas it has taken a little time to get used to the new system, it is much more straightforward and done in no time at all.
Walking into town for lunch, looking back over my shoulder...
After lunch, it's all about the special collections! I begin by photographing books for a new post on the Museum Blog; I have been posting articles for some time now and really enjoy it. This next post I'm working on concerns books with "marginalia" and we have some excellent examples so here is a little sneak peak…
Cambria Depicta: a tour of North Wales by Edward Pugh [1816]
Instructions for collecting and preserving insects; particularly moths and butterflies by William Curtis [1771]
The last few hours of the afternoon are spent working on a talk I will be giving in April as part of the Museum's Behind the scenes series where the curatorial departments allow groups of visitors in to show them what goes on behind the scenes. My working title is "Curios" and the talk will be based on a small selection of our more unique items, such as fore-edge books, annotated books, and books made from unusual materials and bindings!
On my way out I leave via the art galleries, it does take a little longer to get out going this way but it gives me the chance to browse and see what's on display and today there were two things in particular I wished to see. First, the new exhibition Wales Visitation: Poetry, Romance and Myth in Art which includes works by David Jones, Graham Sutherland and Richard Long. And also the new Constable painting [currently on loan from the Tate]; Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows is a stunning work and I particularly like the dark storm clouds brooding behind the rainbow.

Roots of power and herbs of healing... "remedies for weak men and nervous women"
There is an odd story attached to this little booklet. Some time ago, I received a telephone call from a lady offering to donate a catalogue from an old Cardiff herbalist. It sounded intriguing and something that would fit in perfectly at the library over at our sister museum St Fagans: Museum of National History, so we gratefully accepted the offer. A few days later, the Librarian and I were weeding through a pile of old booklets and we noticed an old Cardiff herbalist catalogue [date written in red ink - 29/11/29] and I remember saying how bizarre it would be if this was the same catalogue as the one that was on its way to us. Yes, you guessed it, it turned out to be exactly the same one! We ended up keeping both copies, placing one at the St Fagans library and keeping one here at National Museum Cardiff.
What exactly went into the herbal remedies is one mystery now most likely beyond solving [many of the ingredients are listed but not all] but it is the naive and whimsical wording of the ailments themselves that are so interesting to us now [Remedies for weak men and nervous women, Poverty of nerve force and That don't care sort of feeling spring to mind] and this naivity is illustrated further with the Disney-like wizard and his bubbling cauldron on the cover.
I have done a little research but, apart from a few scanned newspaper advertisements, have found no other information on Trimnell except for one of his old medicine bottles that sold recently on Ebay for £1.99 [see photograph below].
Glamorgan Archives hold some limited information on Trimnell but no actual documentation.

The Fern Paradise
A lovely pressed fern found between the pages of The Fern Paradise [1876] by Francis George Heath. I'm always a little disappointed that we don't find more pressed flowers in our old botany books so this really made my day.
How long has it been lying quietly cocooned between these dry secure pages? Who picked a live and vibrant frond one summers day and slipped it away never thinking it would stay hidden for decades? Did the sun shine that afternooon? What news was ringing around the world? So many questions...

Kunstformen der Natur
Step into a wonderland of colour, a celebration of the natural world in all its artistic and symmetrical glory...
Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919) was an eminent German zoologist who specialized in invertebrate anatomy. He named thousands of new species, mapped a genealogical tree relating all life forms, and coined many now ubiquitous terms in biology. A popularizer of Charles Darwin, Haeckel embraced evolution not only as a scientific theory, but as a worldview. He outlined a new religion or philosophy called monism, which cast evolution as a cosmic force, a manifestation of the creative energy of nature.
Haeckel's chief interests lay in evolution and life development processes in general, including the development of nonrandom form, which culminated in the beautifully illustrated Kunstformen der Natur - Art Forms of Nature, a collection of 100 detailed, multi-colour illustrations (lithographic and autotype) of animals and sea creatures prints. Originally published in sets of ten between 1899 and 1904, and as a complete volume in 1904.
The overriding themes of the Kunstformenplates are symmetry and organization, central aspects of Haeckel's monism. The subjects were selected to embody organization, from the scale patterns of boxfishes to the spirals of ammonites to the perfect symmetries of jellies and microorganisms, while images composing each plate are arranged for maximum visual impact.
Kunstformen der Natur played a role in the development of early twentieth century art, architecture, and design, bridging the gap between science and art. In particular, many artists associated with the Art Nouveau movement were influenced by Haeckel's images, including René Binet, Karl Blossfeldt, Hans Christiansen, and Émile Gallé.
Our copy of Kunstformen der Natur [photographed here] is a complete bound volume of all ten fascicules and sits in our folio section. It was donated to us in 1919 by the first Director of the National Museum of Wales [from 1909 to 1924], William Evans Hoyle. Hoyle's trained as a medical anatomist and developed a life long interest in 'cephalopods'. Our BioSyB Department now holds Hoyle's cephalopod collection [over 400 of them] along with many other specimens and publications.

Theatre of insects
Thomas Moffet [Moufet, Muffet] (1553-1604), was a physician and naturalist. After graduating from Cambridge, he travelled abroad, gained the degree of MD in 1579 from Basel University and eventually established a successful medical practice in Frankfurt. In 1580 he visited Italy, where he studied the culture of the silkworm and developed an absorbing interest in entomology. By 1588 he had returned to England and secured a good practice, first in Ipswich and afterwards in London. On 22 December of that year he was admitted as a candidate of the College of Physicians, then became a fellow and eventually censor. In 1589 he was appointed to a committee responsible for compiling the Pharmacopoeia Londinensis (1618) for the College of Physicians.
Moffet combined real literary aptitude with his interests in natural philosophy, publishing the lengthy poem, The Silkworms and their Flies, in 1599.
Theatre of Insects was published posthumously. In 1590 he had completed a compendious work on the natural history of insects, partly compiled from the unpublished writings of Edward Wotton, Conrad Gesner and Moffet's friend [and fellow physician] Thomas Penny. After Moffet's death, this still unpublished manuscript (BL, Sloane MS 4014) came into the hands of his apothecary [Darnell], who sold it to Sir Theodore Mayerne, who published it in 1634 as Insectorum, sive, Minimorum animalium theatrum. It was translated into English by J. Rowland as The Theatre of Insects, or Lesser Living Creatures and appended to Edward Topsell's History of Four-Footed Beasts and Serpents (1658).
We hold copies of both the 1634 and 1658 editions; the copy photographed here is one of the earlier editions.
These books, along with many other early natural history works, were bequeathed to the Library by Willoughby Gardner in 1953 [for more details visit our website or see The Willoughby Gardner Library: a collection of early printed books on natural history, by John R. Kenyon, published by Amgueddfa Genedlaethol Cymru / National Museum Wales, 1982]
It has been supposed, on the basis of Moffet's interest in spiders that his daughter Patience was the 'little Miss Muffet' of the nursery rhyme; although some sources state this unlikely as the rhyme did not appear in print until 1805.

A 13th Century guide to the heavens
Ioannis de Sacro Bosco [c. 1195 –c. 1256] was a scholar, monk and astronomer [probably English] who taught at the University in Paris. In around 1230 he wrote this authoritative medieval astronomy text Tractatus de Sphaera [On the Sphere of the World]. It gives a readable account of the Ptolemaic universe[the universe according to the Hellenistic astronomer Claudius Ptolemaeus in the 2ndcentury AD] that went on to become required reading by students in all Western European universities for the next four centuries. Though principally about the heavens it contains a clear description of the earth as a sphere and its popularity shows the nineteenth-century opinion that medieval scholars after this date thought the Earth was flat as a fabrication [Wikipedia].
This copy [photographed here] is dated 1577 and forms part of our Vaynor Collection; this consists of a number of 16th and 17th century astronomical works, including several of the writings of Galileo. The collection was formed and donated by John Herbert James of Vaynor [which is just north of Merthyr Tydfil].
The condition of this book is excellent; the paper is bright and unmarked, robust to the touch and all the little volvelles [rotating paper wheel charts] still work perfectly.
It is bound in pure white vellum [calf skin] as are the majority of the Vaynor astronomical books which I always think gives them a very "celestial" look.
Butterfly wings
Eliza Rand
A recent purchase and what a cracker! This manuscript diary is titled Tour of Wales and the Marches beginning on 22 August 1827 and consists of 55 pages of exquisite handwriting and ink sketches presumably by Eliza Rand. We say presumably as she hasn't acknowledged herself as the author but as one of the only two females on the tour, she mentions her sister Georgiana on p. 32, so it's a simple enough process of elimination. The account of the tour includes several pen and ink drawings, including a view of the Havod Arms, a harper at Abergele and Beddgelert church. However, of most interest is a drawing of their guide at Cadair Idris, Richard Pugh, posing in front of his cottage, with staff in hand, wearing a goatskin 'mountain dress' and sporting a headress of goat's skull and horns! This was the traditional costume of the Welsh guides [believe it or not] but depictions of it are very rare indeed.
We hold a good selection of 18thand 19th century tours of Wales as they are an invaluable resource of historical information. Many of them are filled with comments and anecdotes on everyday subjects such as chosen routes; care and maintenance of coach and horses, conditions of roads, personalities met en route, quality of inns, descriptions of architecture and [of course!] the weather. For example, this particular diary ends with a summary of the places visited, the number of horses used and the number of turnpikes.

How more sales can mean less revenue
And they're here: for the first time, we have figures for a year of e-book sales, supplied directly by publishers. It's still far from the whole picture, as not all e-book figures are available. But we now have a much better idea of what the book-buying landscape looks like in the UK.
The figure that stands out is that e-book sales are now up to 13%-14% of all book sales. However, as their prices are cheaper, that's only 6%-7% of revenue. Print book sales are down again, by 3.4% on 2011, as are average prices.
The e-book market is still dominated by fiction, and those e-book figures track the print figures. That is, if a book sells well in print, it also does well in e-book. The stand-out example is a particularly, shall we say, shady trilogy, whose e-book sales are about 36% of the print sales. Could the success of the e-book version of these titles lie, I wonder, in the fact that no-one can see what you're reading on your Kindle...?
So, it's mixed news: more books were bought in 2012, but because more of them were e-books, publishers made less money. Good news for reading, less so for publishing.
Meanwhile, here at Amgueddfa Cymru our journey into 'e' continues...
With thanks to The Bookseller for the sales figures.

Lots of talk, for some very small numbers
Ok, so we had the iPad moment. What's changed? Lots. The iPad itself was, in truth, disappointing for publishers. Beautiful, sure, but not very helpful. It wasn't multifunctional and it wasn't backward compatable with much stuff either (I can't be the only person still using OS 10.4?) But, like Apple's previous offers, it was a gamechanger. It established the tablet as a device, despite many people, myself included, wondering if anyone really wanted Job's 'third device'. Apple then let other manufacturers come up with their own versions, the best of which is probably Samsung's Galaxy, and quietly went home to improve their own model. Having established the tablet, and just in time to catch the secondary wave of adopters, out comes iPad 2. With improved functionality and more features (camera – two, actually), it still passes itself off as the most desirable tablet, even if it's not necessarily the best. With iPad 2 and the iPhone, Apple has now firmly entered the mainstream consumer market. In losing the geek factor, what has it gained? Well, turnover, and profit, obviously. While Apple's top-quality combined hardware/software model of Macs retains its market-leading position in the creative industries, the iPods, Ipads and iPhones are now thoroughly high-street, even with their top-end price tags.
However, part of this trajectory has been the strategic downplaying of the iPad's e-reader function, which is what publishers were most excited about. Instead, the iPad focuses on portable, sleek, seamless acces to the web and email – truly, a big iPhone, but also ready and waiting for Web 3.0.
In terms of e-readers the iPad moment just didn't happen. This has left Amazon's Kindle as market leader, even though it only reads Amazon's own e-book file format (although there are rumours Amazon will soon be allowing US publishers to submit e-books in the industry-standard e-Pub format). Amazon introduced the Kindle in 2007, by 2010 in the US Amazon were selling more Kindle books than hardbacks; today Amazon sells more Kindle books than hardback and paperback put together. At the moment it's selling 105 Kindle books for every 100 print books, and three times more Kindle books than this time last year. In the UK, where the Kindle store has only been open a year or so, Amazon are selling twice as many Kindle books as hardbacks.
What can we learn from this? Remember, the Amazon figures only apply to their own sales, of Kindle books, which can only currently be read on a Kindle device. What's happening across the rest of the bookselling industry? The true picture for the UK is that sales of e-books are currently 2.5% of all book purchases; interestingly, they peaked at 3% over Christmas (did you get an e-book in your stocking?!) Adult fiction is still the most popular category, at 5.4% of all purchases; men and women are buying e-books equally, and the age group 55-64 makes up over a quarter of e-book buyers.
This 2.5% seems like a tiny figure for us all to be worrying so much about, especially as the value of the sales is low – about 1.6%. I still can't wait to have a go though.

For some, seeing loved ones and friends during the holidays is not an option. Instead, we carefully wrap our love in packages for shipment. But what do we need to know for hassle-free shipping this holiday season?
According to the United States Post Office, Thursday, Dec. 20, is the last day to ship first-class mail for Christmas arrival. Saturday, Dec. 22, is the last day for most Express Mail to arrive by Christmas. Find other USPS holiday deadlines here. You can also find out other holiday information at the USPS Holiday Blog.
FedEx has also announced its holiday shipping deadlines. The last day to ship items for FedEx Home and Ground delivery by Christmas Eve is Monday, Dec. 17. Express Saver packages must be shipped by Wednesday, Dec. 19; 2Day - Thursday, Dec. 20; and overnight service available for Christmas Eve delivery until Saturday, Dec. 22. Find the complete FedEx holiday shipping calendar here.
The last days to ship packages by UPS for Christmas Eve delivery are Thursday, Dec. 20 for UPS 2nd Day Air, and Friday, Dec. 21, for UPS Next Day Air. Find out how UPS prepares for holiday shipping at the UPS blog.
When preparing packages, follow these guidelines from the USPS:
- Use a sturdy box and allow space for cushioning inside the carton.
- Obtain Express Mail and Priority Mail boxes, envelopes, and tubes for free from your post office or shipping store.
- Cover up or black out any old labels and markings.
- Cushion with shredded or rolled newspaper or bubble wrap. Plain air-popped popcorn also works and is environmentally friendly. Close and gently shake the box. Add more cushioning if you hear things moving around.
- Stuff glass and fragile hollow items, like vases, with newspaper or packing material to avoid damage. When mailing framed photographs, take the glass out of the frame and wrap it separately.
- Remove batteries from toys. Wrap and place them next to the toys in the mailing box.
- Use tape designed for shipping. Reinforce seams with 2-inch wide tape. Do not use wrapping paper or string as it can get caught in mail processing equipment.
- The weight of your package cannot exceed 70 lbs. If you're planning to use Express Mail or Priority Mail services for faster delivery, length plus girth (distance around the thickest part of the package) can't exceed 108 inches. When you use Parcel Post, the total can't be more than 130 inches.
- PRINT addresses clearly.
- Include all address information, including apartment numbers, suite numbers, directional information.
- Include both "to" and "from" information on packages—and only on one side.
- Make sure you use the correct ZIP code. Use ZIP Code + 4 when possible.
- Packages weighing more than 13 oz. should be delivered to your local Post Office for mailing. Do not drop them into a blue collection box, lobby drop or other unattended location.
- Don't send alcohol. And, in most cases, don't send prescription drugs, cigarettes, smokeless tobacco or handguns.
- Don't mail hazardous materials. Here's a list of hazardous materials.
To make sure your packages arrive safely and on time, make sure to ship early. With a little care, those packages can be the next best thing to being there in person.
What are your best tips for holiday shipping? When do you usually ship your holiday packages?

The flu season has apparently arrived in the East Bay and it has the potential to be a doozy.
A strong flu strain known as H3N2 has been circulating on the East Coast, according to an article in the Contra Costa Times.
That strain has reportedly made its way to California. The Bay Area is one of two spots in the state where outbreaks have been reported.
Kaiser medical centers are reporting an uptick in patients with the flu coming into their facilities, according to the Times article.
Medical officials say this season's flu shot is a good match for this winter's flu strains, including the H3N2 variation.
Kaiser has a fact sheet online about the flu. It answers questions such as whether you can catch the flu from a flu shot and how serious the flu can be.

PALMER, Mass. -- Mohegan Sun executives sought to impress here Monday night, introducing a "dream team" of financiers and designers and unveiling a new look for the resort casino they hope to develop off Exit 8 of the Massachusetts Turnpike.
They seemed to largely succeed, earning positive feedback from town councilors and residents, though longstanding questions about traffic plans surfaced anew. The session ended amid applause.

Hartman – Bates9:49 am | November 5, 2012
Rocky Mount Museum in Piney Flats was the setting for the outdoor country-western wedding of Brittany Marie Hartman and John Wesley Bates on Saturday, September 29, 2012, at 5 p.m.
The Rev. Dennis Wilson officiated the double-ring exchange of vows with the couple's daughter, Ashton Danielle Bates, participating in a unity sand ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of the late Chrissy Hartman. She is the granddaughter of Melvin and Shirley Nave and Glenda Garland, all of Elizabethton, and the late Crawford Garland. She is the great-granddaughter of Ada Nave, Elizabethton.
The groom is the son of Johnny and Karen Bates and Ginny Bryan, all of Elizabethton. He is the grandson of Patricia Bryan, Elizabethton, and the late J.D. Bryan, Teddy and Evlyn Greer, Elizabethton, and the late James and Nettie Ruth "Bootsie" Bates. He is the great-grandson of Wanda Calloway, Elizabethton.
Music for the ceremony included the recordings of At Last, I Wanna Be Your Everything and My Kinda Woman.
Given in marriage by her grandparents, Melvin and Shirley Nave, and escorted by her grandfather, the bride wore a floor-length ivory organza designer gown, enhanced by a one-shoulder strap embellished with iridescent stones. The fitted bodice extended into a tiered front-split skirt, flowing into cascading ruffles and featuring a high-low hemline. The back's lace-up corset was accented with camouflage ribbon.
For her headpiece, she wore a fingertip veil trimmed in camouflage lace adorned with seed pearls attached to a rhinestone tiara.
She carried a bouquet of yellow and orange daisies with a hint of mini brown daisies and green mini flowers wrapped in burlap.
Ashton Bates, serving as flower girl, wore a camo pillow case dress accented with orange ribbon. She carried a tin pail adorned with lace and orange flowers filled with ivory, orange and brown mini daisies.
Following the ceremony a reception was held at Rocky Mount Museum.
After a honeymoon in Pigeon Forge, the couple are residing in Elizabethton.

If you're unsure about your model or weight...try our DEMO program.
Our favorite Squash wrap grip is the Gamma Hi Tec. It's only $8 to have it installed at the time of purchase. It has a great tacky feel and sticks to your hand even when it gets wet.
The Tecnifibre 305 17g string upgrade is recommended because factory string is less playable/durable then the Tecnifibre 305 17g string we suggest.At the time of purchase, the Tecnifibre 305 17g restring upgrade is $21.95. It's normally $36 if you mailed the racquet to us later so you save $14 if you choose the upgrade right away. The tecnifibre will fray before it breaks and that's completely normal so don't worry about it!
If you choose a vibration dampener go with the Silencer (Our favorite), Head Smart Sorb, Head Megasorb, or the BBB (Big Bad Band).
A question we get everyday is "What is Grommet Tape?" It's a piece of tape that goes over the head (bumper) of your racquet. Sometimes you need a restring because of a broken bumper. For an extra buck to add this, it could save you $25-40!!
We recommend an overgrip for players that tend a sweat a lot, want to build up a grip, or wear through wrap grips very often. An overgrip is thinner and wears quicker than re-grips, but can be changed much quicker and easier than a re-grip. We recommend the Wilson Pro Overgrip, but for those looking for the best sweat absorption, durability, and feel... the Overgrip/ Re-grip gives the best combination. Note** when an overgrip is installed, you will not be able to see the re-grip if chose to have it installed.
We get follow up calls/emails everyday thanking us for the upgrades as they really help bring out the performance of the racquet.

EXCELLENT results! You _should_ be proud. :) Mark Twain said "It ain't braggin', if ya done it..."
Well - Ya done it. :) Congrats!
I loved your comment and am so incredibly impressed at your "stick-with-it-ness!!!" Well done!!!
""How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world."........ Anne Frank"
There's no need for modification. Everyone seems to be looking for the next big edge. But the way this program is designed... if you are costantly reaching your 10s, you are always increasing your intensity, and the need for adjustment is minimal. I changed exercises every 3-4 weeks, as needed, but always stuck to the plan. If you workout with the intensity that the plan calls for, you'll be in great shape!
Yes, I was an ACE Certified Personal Trainer back prior to law school and the new career. Makes it shameful that I let myself get to the condition of the "before" pics.
Hey bro...well done.
I am on week 7 and your week 8 photo gives me hope. I dropped from 199 and 25% down to 181 and 18% in 4.5 weeks but seemed to have plateaued (?) this past week or two (also fell off the wagon for a concert and had ALOT of cocktail calories for a weekend).
You are right, it is hard to hit 6 meals and 150g+ protein consistently, and I always feel like I do hit my tens but the cardio and weights is so brief compared to the time I used to put in as a younger man (with less results and a shittier diet)...but I have yet to NOT be psyched for a session at the gym.
The other thing I worry about is my work schedule makes me double up on cardio/weights between 2-3 days each week (I own a restaurant and cook from early until late in a very rural area)..and I am concerned my BMR lags on the days in between...did you stick to honest 6 days weeks.
I am psyched for you. The results are inspiring for me coming around the turn. It seems your results snowballed towards the second half and I am hoping to see the same. I always fret my 10s aren't tens, despite a lifetime of digging deep in sports, ya know?
Thanks for sharing,
WOW!!! Nice Job there Superman ;) Just coming into Week 10 and OMG for some reason hitting lotsv physical/mental/emotional "brickwalls" - so it's just shear determination fueling this Kat right now! Great to see a final Transformation and to really see what is possible in just 12 short weeks! Thanks for posting and reminding us all WHY we are on this journey. See you in the Champion circle! Heheh xoxo
Great job!!! It looks like you really kicked it in the last three weeks Your transformation is very impressive. I am into week 11 and up until this point, my results have been decent, but really want to finish strong. After a few weeks of little change, the last 4 or 5 days, the weight has been coming off and I'm now down to around 196-198 (depending on scales) from 215. Understand what you posted about some wanting modify the program in last few weeks to get an edge as I am tempted myself. You did mention something about cycling carbs in your diet. How does that work and do you feel it made any difference?
I know exactly what you're saying Max. There always seems to be that little bit extra. I always seemed to think I was giving 10 effort, but didn't always get a 10 result. Just keep pushing.
I've got a really tough schedule as a financial advisor in the middle of tax season, but I started every day with my workout so I was able to stick to 6 days per week. I was pretty consistent with the schedule, but I know several people have had to double up. I did a very little doubling up the last 2 weeks, but that was just for extra workouts not to replace a workout that I missed. I was so pumped to be working out, and having so much fun in the gym, I don't think I missed more than 1 workout in 12 weeks. I did have a hard time during week 6 when I was in Costa Rica for a mission trip. I just focused on running every day, did a few sets of pushup and situps, but that was all I really was able to do.
You're right though, the results snowballed at the end. I hope you see the same. Not only that, but weeks 11-12 really motivated me for weeks 13 and beyond. Remember your 84 days may come to an end, but the program is Body-for-LIFE.
DIVA- I don't know if I mentioned in this thread, but I know I have in others. During weeks 9 and 10, I really felt like saying "to hell with it" this is good enough. But weeks 11 and 12 really inspired me! I've been busy all morning (at the expense of a real job) planning out my next 12 weeks!
David- cycling carbs is about modifying your carb intake thoughout the week, with high carb and low-carb days. For instance, if you are 200lbs, maybe your high carb days have 200g of carbs. The goal behind high-carb days is to restore glycogen burnt as fuel during workout and not restored on your low-carb days. There are several different methods but essentially you have 2-3 days with lower carb intake, followed by 2-3 days of higher carb intake. I tried to incorporate this method a little, but wanted to remain true to BFL, because my primary goal was to finish 84 days on the program, and just see what happens!
In the last weeks, I did change the types of carbs I was eating, and when I was eating them. My last 2 meals generally would only include high fiber type carbs from veggies vs. starchy carbs like rice, potatoes, breads, unless I was trying to restrore glycogen after a low-carb day.
Remember carbs are ESSENTIAL! You cannot build muscle without carbs. Also, different people react differently to modifying carbohydrate intake, and decreasing carb intake can be detrimental to a good workout!
Congrats on your transformation! You look great!
Alot of folks have asked about cholesterol: Dropped from 269 to 159!
You look amazing and I know you feel great. Keep it up!. I can't believe I am coming up on almost a year of my Challenge start date. I love my new PowerBlocks and I get frustrated when something interrupts my workout schedule. I truly am a changed person inside and out. That unhealthy person I was almost a year ago almost seems like a stranger to me. The Challenge is truly life changing. Congrats!

Maxwell stunner sets East Stirling on their way
East Stirling cruised into the third round of the Ramsden's Cup with a thumping 3-0 win over Airdrie.
The hosts took the lead in the 23rd minute when Scott Maxwell produced a stunning finish from the edge of the penalty area.
And they doubled their advantage 13 minutes later through Kevin Turner, whose first effort was well saved by goalkeeper Kenny Arthur, but the striker made no mistake second time from the rebound.
The Diamonds were visibly shocked by the quickfire double and struggled to regain any composure as the half drew to a close.

I worked at Apria Healthcare full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – The work I did at Apria kept me busy. I like this type of work. Co-workers, as a whole, are helpful and are willing to extend a hand to help you acclimate to the position.
Cons – There was no formal training program in place. The department I worked in required working past your schedule time to leave and coming in on weekends. if you have responsibilities after 5 or on weekends this may not be the position for you.

Although Barboach isn't one of the most common Pokemon in LC, that shouldn't mean it should be overlooked. Being one of the few Pokemon in Little Cup with access to Dragon Dance, in addition to two great STABs in Water and Ground, Barboach can inflict a lot of damage with only a single boost. However, that's where the list of proficiencies ends for Barboach. Unfortunately for Barboach, it can be taken down pretty easily by most Choice Scarf Pokemon as well as dedicated physical walls. In addition, Barboach's only viable item is Eviolite, as its defenses are quite low. This makes it harder for Barboach to sweep because it can't run Life Orb.
With Eviolite raising its defenses, Barboach's solid defensive typing, and a single weakness to Grass-type moves, Barboach can efficiently run a solid Dragon Dance set. Thanks to its typing, Barboach can set up on the likes of Bronzor, Dwebble, Magnemite lacking Hidden Power Grass, and Thunderbolt-locked Chinchou. Earthquake and Waterfall are great STAB attacks for Barboach, providing great coverage against the whole tier. Bounce is effective against most Grass-types that decide to stay in against Barboach, while Return provides more immediate damage and smacks Mantyke for a lot of damage. Eviolite is almost required on this set because it will give Barboach the ability to set up Dragon Dance easier. Anticipation is a reliable ability as it allows Barboach to see if the opponent has a super effective Grass-type attack, such as Hidden Power Grass.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Life Orb is always an option for additional power, but Eviolite is almost a necessity as it is an extremely helpful buffer against priority and weaker attacks. A Choice Scarf can be used to hit 24 Speed, but with only 14 Attack, Barboach's attacks will be quite weak. Toxic can be used against Lileep, but Fighting-type teammates are preferred. Hydration could be combined with Rain Dance and Rest, but the predominance of Hippopotas and Snover make it a poor choice. It could run a special attacking set with Hydro Pump, Earth Power, Ice Beam, and Hidden Power Fire, but it doesn't have the power to do much damage with those attacks. It has Aqua Tail, but the drop in accuracy, and the inability to potentially flinch, makes Waterfall the better choice. Finally, Spark kills Mantyke but is illegal with Dragon Dance.
Checks and Counters
Ferroseed and Lileep take neutral damage from Bounce, and easily tank Barboach's Earthquakes while KOing back with their STAB Grass-type attacks. Slowpoke and Frillish can also fend off hits and burn Barboach with Scald or Will-O-Wisp, respectively. A Choice Scarf Snover can KO Barboach with Giga Drain if Barboach hasn't boosted its Speed with Dragon Dance, while Wooper with Unaware can take anything Barboach can dish out and ignore any Dragon Dance boosts. Finally, Cottonee can Encore Dragon Dance and tank attacks courtesy of Cotton Guard, as well as paralyzing it with Stun Spore or sapping its health with Leech Seed.
