Ritchie Delivers $160,000 in Special Budget Aid to General Brown
Senator Looks to Help Schools Facing Cuts After Budget Defeat
State Senator Patty Ritchie today announced that she has secured a special $160,000 state grant to help the General Brown School District, which is facing a new round of budget cuts following voters' rejection of the district's budget proposal.
The funding, from a special state fund controlled by the Senate, is specifically earmarked for the purchase of two replacements for school buses that were destroyed in a massive fire last year, giving the district more flexibility in its spending plan to meet other needs.
"School districts across Northern and Central New York have struggled with ways to balance their budgets and meet the educational needs of children, and I have been working hard to steer more aid to schools, including this year's record increase in state education funding," Senator Ritchie said. "But schools like General Brown need extra help, and I am pleased to have been able to secure this additional funding to help ensure continued quality education for our students."
The grant is the second time in two years that Senator Ritchie has secured additional funding to help General Brown. In 2012, she delivered $200,000 in additional state aid.
In addition, the new state budget included a 7.1 percent increase in aid to General Brown—one of the largest one-year increases for a Northern New York school district this year. On average, state aid for schools increased about 5 percent this year.
Senator Ritchie notified the superintendent and school board members about the grant just prior to last night's special budget meeting, at which the School Board approved a new budget request that holds taxes at the state-approved cap.
"As a parent and a taxpayer, I appreciate Senator Ritchie's efforts to help General Brown schools," said Sandra Young Klindt, a parent, who has just been elected to General Brown's School Board . "Her quick action is an example of the type of attentiveness, advocacy and support our schools need."School districts across Central and Northern New York are benefitting this year from the largest increase in state aid in four years--$25 million more than last year, or about $450 per student.

Facts and Events
Introducing Dr. Martin Luther Hawkins of Harford Co, MD________
Presbyterian Banner, Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co, PA, Wednesday, August 10, 1864 Page: 3
DIED—Jun 22d, 1864, at his residence In Westmoreland County, Pa., Mr. MARTIN L. HAWKINS, aged 69 years and 2 months..
The deceased was born in Maryland, April 18th, 1795. At the age of twenty-three he became a member of the Pine Creek Presbyterian Church, then under the pastoral care of Rev. Joseph Stockton. Soon after his marriage he removed to Mercer County, and subsequently to Beaver County. where he was chosen and ordained a Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church of Slippery Rock. In 1840. he came to Sharpsburg, and in the following year was installed a Ruling Elder in the Presbyterian Church of that place in which capacity be served with much acceptance for upwards of twenty years. About a year ago he purchased. a farm near Salem Cross Road., Westmoreland County, where he resided until his death. The disease was paralysis, under which he iingered for several weeks.
Mr. Hawkins was an earnest Christian, a devoted follower of Christ., a faithful servant of his Master, and one of whom it might be truly said, he " adorned the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things."
Martin Luther Hawkins was the son of William D. and Anne Hawkins. His birthdate ranges from 1790-1798 even though the Hawkins Family Bible says he died at the age of 68Y in 1864. If that is true then he would have been born in 1796. In the 1830 North Sewickley Twp, Beaver Co, PA census he's listed between 30-40 years of age (b. 1790-1800); in 1840 North Sewickley Twp, Beaver Co, PA Census he is listed as between 40-50 years of age (b. 1790-1800); in 1850 federal census from Sharpsburg he is 54 born in Maryland (b. 1796); in 1860 federal census from Sharpsburg he is 62 born in PA(b. 1798). His tombstone inscription shows he died at age of 69Y (b. 1795 if died in 1864; b. 1792 if died in 1861, which despite what the Bible says, the tombstone looks like death in 1861. Compound this with the facts from tombstones that both Martin Luther and his father died on the same month and day-June 22. (See above for his newly discovered obituary on 2 Jan 2009.)
The old Pine Creek Cemetery c 1816 is located in Fox Chapel Borough at the 3-way intersection of Dorseyville Road, Squaw Run Road and Poplar Drive. At one time it was called Robinson Cemetery for the school that was located next to it. The former church theron was known locally as Point ViewChapel. This cemetery was read in 1987 by Sherri Ihrman and Diane Nichols. M. L. Hawkins' tombstone there is listed as 1861/1864 @69Y; Mary w/o ML is 1789-1858; William D. Esquire is 1856 @92Y; Ann w/o Wm. is 1860 @80Y

New Castle News, New Castle, Lawrence Co, PA, 2 Oct 1901 (Wednesday)
The centennial anniversary of the founding of the Slipperyrock Presbyterian Church was celebrated Thursday. The first permanent organization of this congregation was affected in Sept 1801 and the passing of 100 years marked an event in the history of the church that was celebrated in a manner commensurate with the importance of the occasion.
The Slipperyrock Church has through its entire life exercised a most important influence upon the community. Located in Wayne Township, 3 miles east of Ellwood City, it is the center of a district, which was settled by study pioneers.
A historian says that the first to settle in this immediate vicinity were 8 persons who came from Fayette County in 1796. They were William and Benjamin Cunningham, Abel Hennon, Robert and Samuel Gaston, William Cairnes, Charles Morrow, and John Moore. Only a portion of these, however, settled in what is now Wayne Township.
Some others who settled here in 1800 or before it were Joseph hennon, Hugh Wilson, Abram McCurdy, John Newton, and Moses Matheny. The greater part of the land in Wayne Township was in the Chewton district and was divided into 400 acre tracts. Each settler on a tract was entitled to half of it for settling.
In 1799 Elisha McCurdy and Joseph Stockton came on their first preaching tour through the new settlement and they were the first Presbyterian ministers who traversed these hills and village. In 1809 Revs McCurdy, McPhersin and Marquis visited different parts of the region, holding services.
Among the first ministers who settled permanently in this region was Thomas E. Hughes who located in Greensburg (now Darlington) in 1799. In 1800 Rev William Wick settled as pastor of the churches of Neshannock and Hopewell. Another early minister was Samuel Tait.
We are unable to give a complete list of the original members. However sone of them were as follows: Jesse Bell, William Cairns and wife, Joseph hennon and wife, William Cunningham and wife, Jonathan Peffard and wife, Jacob Van Gorder and wife, Andrew Elliott and wife, Isaac Col and wife.
At a meeting of Erie Presbytery in Sept 1802 the united congregations of Slipperyrock and Lower Neshannock (New Castle) reported that they were able to support a minister. April 12, 1803, Rev Alexander Cook accepted a call to the two charges. He was ordained June 22, 1803. On this occasion Rev John Boyd preached the sermon and Rev Thomas Hayes presided and gave the charge. At this time Slipperyrock was stronger in numbers than New Castle so that Rev Cook took up his abode here. Rev Cook had not been here long until a log church was built on this hilltop. The church was located just in front or west of the monument of Mrs. Martha Cunningham.
Mr. Cook's pastorate was over six years in length. At a meeting of Erie Presbytery held at Plaingrove, March 6, 1816, he was dismissed to Presbytery of Hartford. November 30, 1828, he went to organize a church at Columbiana County, Ohio and the next morning was found dead in bed.
Slipperyrock was without a pastor for a little over a year. On April 10 Rev Robert Sample was ordained the second pastor of Slipperyrock and New Castle. The salary he received from both churches was $300. On half of this was paid by each church. The larger part of it was in oats, wheat, potatoes, wood, wool, and provisions. Even with all these different kinds of currency it seems the people would get a little behind with their pastor. In his duty it was the custom to have two sermons on Sunday, with one hour between for lunch and smoking. The smoking was not confined to the masculine gender and so the ladies joined in the smoke between sermons.
An important event in the pastorate of Rev Sample was the building of a new church. The congregation worshipped in the log church until 1825 at which time a frame building was erected. It stood parallel with the present church. It stood until 1863 at which time the present structure was erected. Mr. Sample remained with the congregation until 1835 when the church at New Castle felt able to support a minister full time and Mr. Sample took charge of the New Castle Church.
A word regarding the session of Slipperyrock Church would now be in place. The first elders or at least the first we find on record were Jesse Bell, William Cairnes, Joseph Hennon and Jonathan Peffard. In addition to these there were ordained Oct 25, 1812 Isaac Cole and Andrew Elliott. In May 1818 Donald McGregor was added; May 1822 Benjamin Cunningham and William Morton were ordained to the eldership. William Morton was a member of the state legislature from this county; Andrew Elliott was known as the "John" of the session. He had a deep sense of piety and was a mild, gentle man. In February 1839 John Bell, Joseph Cunningham, Daniel Cole, and Martin L. Hawkins were admitted to the roll; in March 1850, Benjamin Cunningham, John Ward, and Jacob Van Gorder. In February 1866, Eljah T. Matheny and John Glasser were ordained ruling elders. These two men are senior members of the present session.

Midnight Snack: Edendale with Rebecca Pardess & Drew Johnson | KCET
Midnight Snack: Edendale with Rebecca Pardess & Drew Johnson
Think there aren't any restaurants open late in L.A.? Residents who work late beg to differ. Rebecca Pardess and Drew Johnson, a couple who both work long hours, have their local just down the hill from their house.
Silver Lake is known for its aloof hipsters, but Rebecca Pardess and her boyfriend Drew Johnson have found a neighborhood spot where everyone knows their name. Rebecca, an associate producer on a daytime show, spends long hours writing promotional copy about health issues that scare her. ("Tune in to hear about this new way people are dying!") Drew, her long-time boyfriend, is a cinematographer who gets home late after shoots that, usually, go into overtime.
They're not your typical "industry couple." They don't drop names or talk film noir. Instead, they take advantage of the little time they have together by walking to their corner bar, Edendale, when their long days are done.
Edendale is huge, a gigantic cavern of Silver Lake cool, with two outside patios and a long bar. I ask for the house Cabernet, and I'm surprised at how delicious it is. Rebecca and Drew lead me to one of their favorite comfy tables to talk "Girls Gone Wild" and coyotes.
Laurenne: So, this is your spot?
Rebecca: Yes. I'd say we come here once a week. At least. Sometimes three times a week. It depends.
Laurenne: Why do you like it so much?
Drew: So many reasons. It's relaxing. The food is really good. There are always several bartenders so there's never a wait. Plus, a lot of people probably walked here. We see the same people all the time, and the bartender knows us. In LA, the neighborhood bar thing is really rare.
Rebecca: We live up the hill, so it's super easy to get to. Getting home is the hard part because we have to walk up a hill. And there are coyotes. But it's worth the risk. Plus, I've usually had a few dirty martinis by then, so I'm not scared.
Rebecca leaves to get her first dirty martini of the night. The vodka sloshes over three green olives as she brings it back to the table.
Rebecca: They make the best dirty.
Drew: Oh, and the place used to be a firehouse.
Rebecca: Yeah, they converted it
Drew: The architecture is really cool.
Rebecca: Yeah, and this whole area used to be called Edendale before it was Silver Lake. I like how they're representing the past. Oh, and I love that there are no "Girls Gone Wild" chicks here and no frat boys.
Drew: Yeah, nobody comes to Edendale to 'bro out.'
Rebecca's face contorts and she starts to panic.
Rebecca: Oh no! We're going to be the worst interview for you. We're not single. You're totally looking for 'Girls Gone Wild' chicks who have crazy stories. We're a couple. And we come here after our jobs because we work crazy hours and we can walk here. How boring!
Laurenne: You're not boring. You're drinking dirty martinis together and you take on coyotes to get home. Come on. How long have you been together?
Drew: Since freshman year of college.
Rebecca: He called me 'green eyes' at a party, and I loved it. And then we took some breaks for a while. After we broke up the second time, Drew moved away for a bit. When he moved back, we decided to see each other once so that it wouldn't be awkward if we ran into each other randomly.
Drew: And then we saw each other...
Rebecca: And now we've been living together for almost 3 years.
Laurenne: On a scale from one to ten, how much do you love each other?
Drew: Eleven.
Rebecca: Me too! I was gonna say eleven.
They're so cute, I have to stop being mad (read: jealous) at them.
Laurenne: So, would you say that Edendale keeps you together?
Rebecca: Sure! We both work pretty late, so this is our place to catch up.
Drew: We take advantage of the little time we have by drinking together at Edendale.
Rebecca: And they have a special late-night menu just for us.
Laurenne: Is it good?
Rebecca: I don't remember. I'm pretty drunk by late night.
Laurenne: Why do you like to drink so much?
Rebecca: Because reality sucks.
Drew: We're not raging alcoholics or anything.
Rebecca: Well, on the weekends we are.
Drew: The couple that drinks together, stays together.
Laurenne: So, your favorite thing on the menu is the dirty martini?
Drew: I go with Amstel Light.
Rebecca: And the food is great too. I swear. I mean, they make the best dirty, but the food can't be ignored.
Plates stream out of the kitchen and land on our table. We've ordered a little bit of everything: shrimp and goat cheese pastries, a Niman Ranch burger, mushroom potstickers in lemongrass-ginger-coconut milk, a grilled cheese and tomato soup, and vol-au-vent, a puff pastry filled with beef short ribs, pasta, mushrooms, peas, shallots, and balsamic caramelized onions. I have to say I'm impressed. This is not bar food.
Rebecca: See? Isn't this place the best? This shrimp pastry tastes like China and Greece had a baby.
Laurenne: I love the lemongrass. I feel like I'm in Cambodia.
Rebecca: Everything is flakey and satisfying. It's comforting and buttery with a slight tang.
Rebecca: Oh! I had my 26th birthday party here. I drank about 10 dirty martinis that night. That was a crazy night, but awesome because the courtyard here is so perfect for a birthday party. It can hold lots of people.
Drew: Perfect for smokers.
Rebecca: OH! And we've made out in the photo booth. Is that cool? We have a million photo booth pictures on our fridge. Oh, and I have hooked a lot of my single friends up here. There are such cool, good-looking people here, and I like to be a wingwoman because I have nothing to lose.
Laurenne: Does that usually work?
Rebecca: I've never really seen any long-term relationships come out of it.
Long-term relationships are rare in LA, especially stable seven-year ones whose members both agree they love each other at an eleven out of ten. Maybe drinking together really does do the trick. I will be at Elendale later in case anyone is interested in testing the theory.

Blue Jays beat Tigers 6-5 in 19-inning marathon
Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:22:25 GMT —
Jose Bautista's single in the 19th inning drove home the winning run as the Toronto Blue Jays rallied from a 5-0 deficit to win the longest game in franchise history, beating the Detroit Tigers 6-5 on Sunday.
Munenori Kawasaki singled off Rick Porcello (13-7) to begin the 19th and advanced to third when second baseman Ian Kinsler couldn't field an errant throw from Porcello on Jose Reyes' sacrifice bunt. Melky Cabrera was intentionally walked to load the bases for Bautista, who ended it with a single to right over the drawn-in outfield, sending his teammates streaming out of the dugout in celebration.
Porcello, who threw 110 pitches over seven innings against the Yankees on Thursday, worked two innings out of the bullpen as the Tigers used eight pitchers.

"I can sit here and talk in theory about what I want to do (next season)," Painter said earlier this spring. "We need guys that play hard. There is not a guy that is excluded."
Painter stressed the importance of effort throughout the 2012-13 season with mixed results. The ninth-year Boilermaker coach wants maximum effort out of his guys next season, but he also has to worry about winning games by playing productive players, of which Hammons often was.
"You can't contradict yourself, it's effort and results," Painter said. "There's some guys that don't practice hard, and they should. But they are better than the guys that are in front of them and they give us a better chance to win, so they play more. Anybody that doesn't understand that doesn't understand basketball. But when you're not in that spot, when you have that ultimate talent, the guys that are going to play the hardest, are the guys that are going to help you win."
That is precisely where Hammons finds himself with the United States group that will gather later this month in preparation of the tournament. The final cut for the 12-man squad will be by June 28 and the head of the selection committee knows it'll be competitive to represent the United States.
"The committee has assembled one of the strongest World University Games training camp rosters USA Basketball has ever had," Syracuse coach and chair of the USA Men's Junior National Team Committee Jim Boeheim said in a release. "It includes some of the top players in college basketball, several of whom have international experience. Selecting the players for the final roster is going to be a real challenge."
The 7-foot Hammons was a Big Ten All-Freshman Team selection this past seasons after leading the conference in blocks per game during league play. He also ranked in the league's top 10 in both field goal percentage and rebounding average in Big Ten games.
The Gary native led the Boilermakers in rebounds (six per game) and blocks (two per game), while ranking second on the team with a 10.6 scoring average. However, Painter was never truly satisfied with the youngster's effort during games or practices.
"(Consistent effort) is a big challenge for big A.J.," Painter said. "Big A.J. was inconsistent in (effort), but he's probably the best that he's ever been in that area, so he's made improvements, but he's still inconsistent."
Hammons scored in double figures 19 times on the year, leading Purdue in scoring on six occasions, and produced three double-doubles. He finished his rookie season ranked 13th on Purdue's career chart with 67 blocks.
His 2012-13 production also ranked second on the program's freshman list for blocks (67), third for rebounds (204) and sixth for points (359). He was the lone active freshman in the power six conferences to finish the season with averages of at least 10.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per game.
"Once A.J. gets consistent (with his effort)," Painter explained, "I think the sky's the limit for him. I think that he'll be a very productive player. But until that comes, he's hit or miss at times."There are an abundance of players and coaches that will be involved in the upcoming camp that Indiana basketball fans are familiar with.
Not only is Painter on the committee, but Grace College men's basketball coach Jim Kessler will serve as a court coach for the training camp.
Also earning invitations to try out for the squad will be Indiana players Yogi Ferrell and Will Sheehey, as well as Notre Dame players Eric Atkins and Jerian Grant.
The squad will be coached by Davidson College's Bob McKillop, who will be assisted by Michigan's John Beilein and South Carolina's Frank Martin.Here is the list of 29 players vying for the 12 roster spots:

Good afternoon everyone, and thank you for coming to the event on May 6th and thank you for waiting patiently for these questions while I was on vacation. So without any more delay, here are the questions from the launch event in Cincinnati on May 6th.
Sorry for the repost of these questions, but as some of you have noticed the good ole blog has been upgraded, and this post did not make it. It is also okay because my friend Gordon point out one of my answers was not the right link.
Q:Where can I find more information on virtualizing SharePoint?
A: There is a great series from our peers across the pond: http://blogs.technet.com/virtualization/archive/2009/04/06/Series-on-virtualizing-SharePoint.aspx
Q: How can I send SMS text messages with Outlook 2010?
A: Yes, and it is built in. With Microsoft Outlook 2010 and Office Mobile Service (OMS) or a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 account, you can send and receive text messages (SMS). But beyond just sending and receiving text messages, you can also configure Outlook to send notifications to your mobile device as a text message. You can learn more about OMS here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/outlook/archive/2008/04/07/introducing-smsofficer.aspx
For example, you can receive an alert on your mobile device that an important e-mail message has arrived — you can even have the e-mail message forwarded as a text message. You can also have Outlook calendar summaries sent to your mobile device.
There are two ways to use text messaging with Outlook 2010.
- Use an Exchange Server 2010 account to connect to a Windows Mobile device running Windows Mobile 6.5
- Or subscribe to a third-party Short Message Service (SMS) provider using OMS
Q: Where can I learn more about Project Server?
A: This is not a product we covered during the launch but I wanted to make sure you got to the right resources: http://www.microsoft.com/project/en/us/project-server-2010.aspx

A: MAP is a great free tool and you can learn more and download the tool here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb977556.aspx

A: SharePoint Foundation is the next generation of Windows SharePoint Services, and you learn about it here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/ee263910.aspx#tab=1

A: It is the ability to have office applications work inside your browser. You can learn more here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee855124.aspx

A: Yes, you will be able to save and work directly with SkyDrive take a look here: http://www.windowslive.com/Connect/Post/65ec5712-8e4a-4a62-9eb0-01f0f7b285bc

seems like everything has wireless capability these daysyour laptop, printer, pda, and even your dvr. this is all very convenient, but don't sound the death knell for good old-fashioned ethernet cable just yet. if you're building a home network, a portion of it should definitely remain wired.
at home you're watching videos, downloading movies, and even getting on-demand entertainment via the internet. despite wi-fi's ever-increasing bandwidth, it's a finite resource shared by all your equipment and by all of your neighbors, too. if you can see your neighbors' wireless routers, you're sharing bandwidth. if enough of you are downloading at the same time, you're contending for air time and interleaving packets.
equipment that doesn't move around, such as a networked printer, should be hardwired. hardware that carries big data loadsthe aforementioned dvr, your home entertainment server, your backup servershould likewise be hardwired. and if you always use your laptop in the same spot, why not run a cable to it? you may actually see a performance improvement when you're online, especially as web sites become denser and more content filled.
for this job you have three cables to choose from: cat 5, cat 5e, or cat 6 cable. if you want to future-proof the network, go with cat 6. we chose cat 5e, which is far less expensive and can handle gigabit speeds if need be.

The founder of defunct Deerwood Academy never has added a fourth R to his personal curriculum: Responsibility. Henry Johnson blamed the Pasco School District for his charter school's demise; characterized the actions of the late Superintendent John Long as unprofessional, the late chief financial officer Charles Rushe as an obstructionist, other district officials as uncommunicative and their financial safeguards as absurd.
Johnson took his search for a scapegoat to Pasco Circuit Court this week, pointing fingers, while under oath, at everyone but himself and the thief he allowed to pilfer tens of thousands of dollars of public money during the school's two-year existence.
The result of Johnson's inattentiveness is well-documented. He put convicted con man Jeffrey Alcantara in charge of running the school's day-to-day operations. He even allowed Alcantara to hang around and be paid after he resigned when a background check revealed an extensive criminal history of fraud and drug charges.
Here's a sample of how Deerwood spent public money:
A $10.60 purchase of plumbing equipment was parlayed into a $2,700.60 reimbursement. A defunct Clearwater company submitted $29,000 in invoices for air conditioning service never performed. Another air conditioning company did only minor work at the school building, but someone submitted nearly $39,000 in receipts in the company's name for payment. Deerwood has no vehicles, but spent $600 at Tire Kingdom. A school credit card in Johnson's name was billed for a $250 political contribution to the Republican Congressional Committee. Someone ran up a $121 tab at Hooters Restaurant.
A 2005 plea bargain sent Alcantara to prison on a racketeering charge for the embezzled funds.
"Did this ruin Deerwood Academy? Absolutely not,'' Johnson testified Monday afternoon.
Deerwood obviously didn't stress logic and critical thinking as attested to by Johnson's statement that he accepted Alcantara's explanation for his criminal record: A three-month term in a Club Med-like facility for a federal tax dispute.
Johnson saved his criticism for Pasco School District administrators. He blamed them for the school shutting down in 2003, saying they improperly withheld a $138,000 federal grant to which the school was entitled. The district countersued saying it double-paid to educate the Deerwood students by placing them elsewhere when the charter school closed.
If Johnson's goal was to salvage his reputation, this didn't do it. He even blamed the school district for the court fight, saying its attorney wouldn't negotiate.
With good reason. There is no justification for rewarding incompetency.

Study Shows Daughters of Working Mothers Are More Successful
Daughters are largely shaped by what they see from their mothers — and a new study continues to prove this.
Despite taboos in the past about having busy bees for parents, it is shown that working mothers can have a big impact on their daughter's path to success. Harvard Business School's "Gender Initiative" analyzed data from 24 countries — finding that in the U.S. specifically, adult daughters of working mothers earned 23 percent more than those whose mothers had not worked during their childhoods.
Not to mention, these jobs are more enjoyable and higher paying than the jobs of those raised by stay-at-home mothers.
"These findings suggest that in addition to transmitting gender attitudes across generations, mothers' employment teaches daughters a set of skills that enable greater participation in the workforce and in leadership positions," said Professor Kathleen McGinn of Harvard Business School.
This "roll modeling" effect can be noted on all sides of an industrious mother's influence — sons of working mothers take a greater share of parenting and other household care roles, according to the study.
But an article published by Daily Worth says that expensive childcare costs play a role in this, meaning that some women go back to work reluctantly, or stay at home because they can't afford to work and pay for childcare.
And while the economic lens of working mothers has an influence on daughters, the emotional component of being happy in a workplace is what really makes an impact, says Family Therapist, Julie Azevedo Hanks.
"It's interesting that the Harvard study focuses more on the economic benefits," Hanks said. "That doesn't mean their daughters are more successful in their personal lives. If a mother, whatever her work status, is happy and fulfilled, that's good for daughters, too."

Imperfect Copies
Animals created through nuclear transfer aren't quite perfect replicas of their rare or endangered donors, because they also contain the mitochondrial DNA from their egg donors. And so using interspecies nuclear transfer to duplicate an endangered species raises an interesting philosophical question. As David Ehrenfeld, a biologist at Rutgers University, put it in a 2006 essay: "[I]s a cloned animal, whose mitochondrial DNA is at least partly from the egg donor species, a true copy of the species we are trying to conserve; and does it matter if it is . . . ?" It's a provocative question, but in the long run, scientists could keep the foreign DNA from spreading through a wild population by breeding the animals carefully. Since mitochondrial DNA is inherited entirely from the mother, all that researchers would need to do is prevent the female offspring of female clones from having kittens. Male offspring of female clones, and all offspring of male clones, could reproduce freely. ❧

Children's Health
Keeping Your Children Happy and Healthy
All parents share the goal of keeping their children as healthy and happy as possible. Promoting health and effectively addressing illness are the two ways your health care provider attempts to support families in this endeavor. The old saying, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," remains as true today as it always has been.
Part of childhood often includes acute illnesses (short but sometimes severe), especially in the preschool years. Luckily the vast majority of childhood illnesses are self-limited, and with some simple and safe interventions, the children rebound with health and vigor. Because a child must build up their arsenal of immunity to fight off colds and viruses, they typically will have up to a dozen of such infections a year during the first few years of life.
Children may also have chronic illnesses (persisting over a long period of time) to contend with. Coping with the day-to-day struggles in chronic illness can, in some cases, place a damper on a child's natural enthusiasm, but there may be many things that can be done to help them lead pleasurable and fulfilling lives.
If your child has a medical condition, it is important to remember that your behavior influences him or her. If your child senses that you are overwhelmed and afraid, it will be more difficult for him/her to cope with an illness. This is why your interest in becoming educated about your child's condition, and maintaining that element of control, can be helpful. It can be equally important for both you and your child to understand that it may take some time to fully understand and care for any illness your child may experience.
The family's relationship with the health care provider also impacts how the child perceives his experience, how the medical team shares information and decision making with families, and how the families communicate their questions, fears or concerns. The goal is to approach care as a team. The family is an integral part of this approach, with each member fulfilling a key role. The medical team appreciates the input of the parents and relies on them to be advocates for their children. After all, parents know their children better than anyone else!
We wish you the best of luck in your pursuit to lead your children into healthy adulthood!

A Wealth of Choices: Understanding the New Tax-Free Savings Account
By RedFlagDeals.com StaffSeptember 23, 2011
By Bennett Gold LLP, Chartered Accountants
Finance Minister Jim Flaherty called it the only significant tax-related savings plan since Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs) were introduced in 1957.
Many economists praised it as an affordable plan that will promote savings and help bolster the economy by providing more capital to corporations. And the Canadian Taxpayers Federation called it "an excellent policy proposal."
What is it? The new Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) that was the focal point of Budget 2008. The new account not only can help you save, it can play significant roles in your estate and tax planning.
Starting next year, Canadians aged 18 and older will be able to invest as much as $5,000 a year in a TFSA.
The new account is the mirror image of an RRSP -- contributions are made with after-tax dollars, rather than pre-tax money, but withdrawals are tax-free.
Withdrawals will add contribution room matching the amount taken out. In contrast, when you withdraw money from your RRSP you lose contribution room. In other words, if you withdraw $4,000 from your RRSP, $4,000 of your contribution room is lost forever.
The same investments eligible for RRSPs are eligible for TFSAs. So you can hold a number of income-earning holdings in the account, including equities, bonds, mutual funds, savings accounts, and term deposits. (See Page 3 for a closer look at the benefits of TFSAs.)
However, the point of the TFSAs is not to replace registered plans. In fact, all things being equal, the two plans are a wash as the table at the bottom of the article illustrates.
There generally would be no advantage to either a TFSA or RRSP, although both can provide a better rate of return compared with unregistered savings. The only difference is that with an RRSP you receive an initial tax deduction, which leaves you with more pre-tax dollars to compound over the years. The after-tax TFSA contributions mean you essentially have less money to grow.
Ideally, you would have both accounts and maximize their uses. Then you would have the flexibility to choose annually whether to pay tax on withdrawals from a registered plan. In some years you may want to keep taxable income low to minimize benefit clawbacks and in other years you may want some taxable income to account for losses.
What all this means is that you have some planning to do with your accountant before the TFSA is introduced next year to determine how the new savings account might fit into your retirement, estate and tax strategies. Here are several possibilities to consider...

text: Politics 9 July 2009 The death changes nothing First thoughts on Press TV, the Jacko industry and hard-hat zones Sign up for our weekly email * With every day that passes, it becomes clearer that those who hoped the crisis of capitalism might lead to a reinvigoration of the public sector and a revival of non-market values will be sadly disappointed. The crisis has been smartly transferred to the public sector, which faces near-bankruptcy thanks to the double whammy of rescuing the banks and picking up the bill for the unemployment and social dislocation caused by the bankers' errors. The main beneficiaries will be our old friends Capita and other providers of contractual services to the government. The Financial Times predicts a new burst of outsourcing, as ministers struggle to make cuts. The private sector expects to take over, for example, chemotherapy, kidney dialysis and probation supervision services. Meanwhile, in the City, attempts at more vigorous and effective regulation of derivatives, hedge funds, private equity and so on are being firmly resisted. I fear New Labour, having long ago made its Faustian pact with the City, has little alternative but to back off. The only way to repair the public finances is to restore the City's ill-gotten gains, so that they can again be taxed. Last autumn, at the height of the banking crisis, a Daily Mail headline announced "Free-market capitalism lies shredded". Leftist sages, such as George Monbiot and Ken Loach, were consulted on whether the end was nigh. How long ago it now seems. Is everybody on the make? No, they are being incentivised. That is why, in addition to the expenses and pensions of MPs and BBC executives, you can read about bonuses of £130,000 paid to a London headmaster and about chief constables receiving private school fees, satellite TVs and cars for spouses, along with hefty bonuses and "packages" for retention and relocation. Apparently nobody in a senior executive position, whether in the public or private sector, can be expected to subsist on a bog-standard salary, even if it comfortably exceeds £100,000 a year. In his recent book Supercapitalism, Robert Reich recalls how, 50 years ago, heads of big companies saw themselves almost as public officials, carefully balancing the interests of shareholders, workers and customers. They took pride in serving the wider community and doing a job well; a bonus for maximising "shareholder value" would have seemed nonsensical to them. The old-fashioned values of the public sector – which then included modest pay and few perks – seeped into the private sector to the extent that it was sometimes hard to tell the two apart. Now they again share a common ethical framework but the private sector's values, as redefined by neoliberal doctrine, are the dominant ones. I am not sure why ministers get so indignant about accusations that Britain is behind the protests against the Iranian regime. You would expect our liberal interventionists to swell with pride when Ayatollah Ali Khamenei describes Britain as the greatest evil. No doubt Britain is innocent of Khamenei's charges, if only because the Department of Health, which told us all to stay indoors during our recent heatwave, would rule out Tehran as too hot for government-sponsored subversives. But are the charges as self-evidently absurd as ministers suggest? When the Iraqis rose against the British and American occupation, we blamed it on Iranian and Syrian influence. When Iranians rise, the ayatollahs blame it on British and American influence. Spot the difference. (Disinterest declared: I appeared on Press TV, the Iranian propaganda channel based in west London, a couple of times more than a year ago. Since then, having learned more about it, I have – unlike Andrew Gilligan, Lauren Booth and other esteemed fellow journalists – refused all further invitations, despite the offer of limousines to drive me and fees that exceed anything I've earned from a British broadcaster.) On the eve of Michael Jackson's funeral, I was persuaded to go on Radio 5 Live, along with the leader of his fan club who, to my alarm, looked and sounded perfectly normal. My job, it became clear, was to play the old buffer who thinks Jackson's music an incomprehensible screeching noise and his fans deranged philistines. I fulfilled expectations by failing to name the titles of his songs, even when they were played to me. But who am I to pass judgement on Jackson? He produced music that made people want to dance, and there are worse things in life than that. My real gripe is that death has become just another selling opportunity. I think it started with Elvis Presley, who became an even bigger industry after he died than when he was alive, as Tom Parker, his manager, predicted when he told the family that the death "changes nothing". Now the promoters of Jackson's O2 concerts are sending out either refunds or replica tickets, which can be resold as "souvenirs" for sums far exceeding their face value. Even Parker couldn't have foreseen that. The death of a 72-year-old umpire, hit on the head by a ball at a cricket match in Swansea, was a horrible accident. But as the chairman of the South Wales Cricket Association said, it was a million-to-one chance. I hope nobody takes seriously the suggestion – from Dickie Bird who, as an umpire, wanted to take the players off whenever a cloud crossed the sun or a spot of dew appeared on the outfield – that umpires should be given helmets. We already have batsmen wearing helmets to face even the gentlest slow bowling, and increasingly wicketkeepers and fielders also wear them. It cannot be long before somebody wants to issue them to spectators and to declare anywhere within a one-mile radius of a cricket ground a hard-hat zone. The story that the former England captain Brian Close, standing at short leg for Yorkshire, would deliberately head the ball so that another fielder could catch it is probably apocryphal, but it suggests previous generations were made of sterner stuff.

The mother of all bad words: Fudge
Only it didn't say "fudge." It said THE word. The big one. The queen mother of all dirty words. The F dash dash dash word.
According to a story on Cleveland's Fox8 website, seems a particularly gift student artist was given the honor of designing the cover of the yearbook, and created a crowd of Red Raider mascots. Hidden inside the crowd — and you have to turn it upside down to see it — is the phrase "F--- all y'all."
Oopsie. (If you click the picture below, you can go to the Fox8 News story where they're very helpful in showing you how to find it.)
Principal Michael Griffith was not amused. He wrote a letter to students and their families saying they were suspending yearbook distribution, because "an obscenity was cleverly concealed in the cover artwork."
At least he gave the student some credit for cleverness.
So the school covered up the offending K, U, and C (not necessarily in that order) so they could be given out before the school year ended. They did offer to fix any books that had already been given out, although I can't imagine they had many takers.
Principal Griffith's letter also contained a note — a "sincere apology," said Michael McIntyre from the Cleveland Plain-Dealer — from the artist, which said "I cannot begin to explain the miserable feeling I brought upon myself when I betrayed the trust of all of you."
McIntyre, who may also believe in the Easter Bunny and the merits of high school class basketball (it's an Indiana thing. Sorry.), said:
The sincere apology worked. At the Shaker graduation ceremony Thursday, the student artist received the loudest, most sustained applause of any fellow student as he accepted his diploma.
Uh, Michael, that wasn't in appreciation for a sincere apology. Think back to when you were in high school and one of your classmates pulled some prank right before they graduated (mine was sticking a bunch of For Sale signs in my school's front yard. . . I was a bit of a weenie back then). Didn't the students yell and cheer for the prankster when he or she crossed the stage?
That's what happened in Shaker Heights. No one gave a rip about a sincere apology. They were just excited to see someone pull a prank that lasts longer than a high school relationship and live to tell the tale.

Which small steam Orvis rod?

Re: Which small steam Orvis rod?
Hello Paul,
I am in a similar situation and I am looking for a Hardy Sintrix 8"/3wt. or an Orvis Helios 7´6"/3wt. I also started a thread about this topic.
Last Thursday I went to a dealer who sells Hardy and Orvis. Unfortunately he did not have the 3wt. rods in his store, just the 4wt. rods.
But anyhow -maybe it helps you a little bit- I was focused on the Hardy first. But when I have seen the finish of the Hardy rod I was a little bit dissabpointed with the finish of the Hardy rod. At the end cap of the rod was too much glue, which was welled out. And the upper part of the reel retainer was made out of plastic.
The Orvis (mid flex) rod was much better made, a really nice rod. And even the 4wt rod was good for the fine dry fly fishing. When I think on the 3wt. I am pretty sure that this is what I want - A fine rod for small rivers for fine dry fly fishing.
I also checked a Sage full flex 3wt. rod, but I feel better with a mid flex rod. The full flex was to soft in my opinion.
My conclusion: I am going to buy an Orvis Helios 7´6"/3wt. midflex rod when I will be the next time in the USA. Here I will take the combo with an Orvis Mirage LA I reel in gold
Best regards from Germany,

ORLANDO — Florida citrus growers lost more than 4 percent of their orange crop and more than 3 percent of their grapefruit crop during last month's freeze, according to estimates released Tuesday.
The U.S. Agriculture Department forecast put Florida's orange crop in February at 129 million boxes, down from an estimate of 135 million boxes in January. Each box weighs about 90 pounds.
"We were lucky, considering it was the most sustained cold air mass that we know of in modern citrus history," said Doug Bournique, executive vice president of the Indian River Citrus League. "I think everybody is breathing a sigh of relief that we still have what we have, because we still have a good crop going."
Half of the orange losses came from Valencia oranges, whose fruit size is expected to be smaller than usual.
The grapefruit estimate for February was 18.8 million boxes, down from the 19.5 million estimated in January.
If these estimates hold steady, Florida's orange crop will be 21 percent smaller than last season's crop and the grapefruit crop will be 13 percent smaller.
The freeze reduced Florida's tangerine crop almost 15 percent from 4.7 million boxes in January to an estimated 4 million boxes in February. If estimates remain unchanged, this season's tangerine crop will be 4 percent higher than last season's crop.
The bulk of the state's fruit is used to make orange juice.

A Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory reports:
moz_bug_r_a4 reported several exploits giving an attacker the ability to install malicious code or steal data, requiring only that the user do commonplace actions like click on a link or open the context menu. The common cause in each case was privileged UI code ("chrome") being overly trusting of DOM nodes from the content window. Scripts in the web page can override properties and methods of DOM nodes and shadow the native values, unless steps are taken to get the true underlying values.
We found that most extensions also interacted with content DOM in a natural, but unsafe, manner. Changes were made so that chrome code using this natural DOM coding style will now automatically use the native DOM value if it exists without having to use cumbersome wrapper objects.
Most of the specific exploits involved tricking the privileged code into calling eval() on an attacker-supplied script string, or the equivalent using the Script() object. Checks were added in the security manager to make sure eval and Script objects are run with the privileges of the context that created them, not the potentially elevated privileges of the context calling them.

Ronnie Brewer sentenced in February drunk driving incident
NBA journeyman Ronnie Brewer entered a plea of no contest Tuesday through his attorney to a misdemeanor charge of drunk driving, according to the Associated Press.
A judge in Los Angeles Superior Court sentenced Brewer to three years probation, mandated he attend 10 Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and ordered him to attend three months of alcohol abuse classes, according to Brewer's attorney Stephen Miyata.
The charges stemmed from a drunk driving arrest in Beverly Hills, Calif., in February. His blood-alcohol level at the time of the arrest was .15, RedEye reported. That level is almost twice California's legal limit of .08.
The Houston Rockets signed Brewer in the 2013 offseason. He played 23 games for the Rockets, averaging roughly seven minutes per game before joining the Chicago Bulls at the end of the 2013-14 season.

It sounds simple enough:
you want to get away for a romantic weekend with your partner. You've secured the sitter (thank you, Grandma), but there's something to consider - you have a young toddler at home, so location suddenly becomes an important factor, unless you want to spend the weekend fretting that, should something happen, you are too far away to get to your child quickly because you're ensconced somewhere in the Highlands with no mobile reception. But still, you want that away-from-it-all-feeling.
Loading article content
We weren't sure it was possible to have both until we went to Mar Hall. Far enough away to make toddler tantrums seem a distant memory (ie 20 minutes from Glasgow) yet suitably isolated, to make you feel like you are in the country (set in a lush 240-acre estate overlooking the River Clyde), but still within a short driving distance of Grandma's should we need to return quickly, Mar Hall ticked all our boxes for a cheeky weekend getaway without the wee one. Given our intentions - we wanted a bit of romance, sure, but moreover, we were there for good food, good wine and a good night's sleep - Mar Hall was the perfect antidote to the city.
It's got that whole grand-country-house thing going on (the decor is rich, lush), playing host as it does to many a star coming to town in Glasgow (we missed Beyonce by a week). And the reasons celebrities choose Mar Hall to stay rather than somewhere in the city are likely much the same as ours - privacy, yet close to civilisation; class; and facilities aplenty (golf and a spa offering Darphin treatments) - and on those fronts, Mar Hall doesn't disappoint. And the staff, oh the staff, they were wonderful. We literally couldn't fault them. But - there's always a but - while the food was well-intentioned and generously proportioned, it lacked slightly in consistency (I'm being pernickety here); and, for a Scottish hotel, it would be nice to see more craft beer offerings. That said, we would return to Mar Hall in a heartbeat, whether it be for romance or, indeed, just a good night's sleep.

When you work in a Marketing team you get involved in videos. Marketers love making videos, case studies, promotion, training etc etc. They also like shiny new ideas, like Silverlight. So sooner or later they are going to ask about playing their "funky" videos on their internal web site using shiny new Silverlight. As the person who looks after "their" web site, I'm the one who has to figure out how to get SharePoint to play videos using Silverlight. Minor details to the Marketers.
To actually post a video on the site I had to get an understanding of what was required behind the scenes. So I picked up this interesting publication from O'Reilly: Essential Silverlight 2.0 Up to date. It's interesting in a few ways beyond the content. Mine come with a plastic cover and a whole wad of blank pages at the end for the purpose of making notes.
I read the book over an evening and a morning, I was surprised to find it wasn't hard going at all. It was straightforward with simple explanations and examples. Best of all it actually had a player example I could use if I wanted. I didn't use the one from the book because the book also explained enough about the XAML that drove the player for me to take the Player sample from Expression Studio and modify it to work in a few minutes. Which was, after all, my aim.
The caveat was that the Expression Studio sample used Silverlight 1.0 and book is all about Silverlight 2.0 so there where things I couldn't use in the Expression sample. Which turned out find as the requirement was simple to stream the video as soon as the page rendered.
A subsequent requirement came to me to have another video on the same page start with a press of a button, which the Expression Studio samples allows for and the book explains.
Back to the book, I started reading it just for the video code, but ended up understanding a lot about XAML, the book did a great job of explaining the syntax and what the elements do, with easy examples and picture. If you want to get up to speed on Silverlight 2.0 quickly this publication is worth a look.
If you are wonder how I got the video to stream in Office SharePoint Server, I was a bit of smoke and mirrors. I basically created the application in Expression studio, and posted it to an IIS server as it's own website, from there I simply created a Web Page web part and pointed the web part at the site I created. If anyone solved this type of problem another way, I'd love to hear about it.
