Anyway, this recipe doesn't call for anything truly unusual. It's a scone recipe that is akin to a soft gingerbread cookie. I think it's the perfect complement to coffee or tea either in the morning or afternoon.
I prepared them the way Mama Noonie's recipe read with just an egg white wash on top to give them a bit of a sheen. However, if you like, these would lend themselves very nicely to a lemon or orange glaze or even whipped cream.

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: Automatic car won't reverse or drive when put into gear. on 2001 Honda Civic
While driving my automatic, it did not want to go into the next gear as speed increased. Later that night, it would start up but not reverse or drive when put into gears. It would only ease forward as if it were in neutral. I checked the transmission fluid and it was quite low, so I put about 4 quarts of fluid in it. Since it began not reversing or driving, the battery has been dying. What is your professional opinion as to what may be wrong with the car? How much will it cost to repair?
sounds like the low fluid burnt up the clutches in the trans. you are going to need an overhaul. looking at 1800 to 2100 depending on hard parts.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/676,852, filed on Sep. 29, 2003, which application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a system, method, and program for copying data.
2. Description of the Related Art
Disaster recovery systems typically address two types of failures, a sudden catastrophic failure at a single point in time or data loss over a period of time. To assist in recovery of data updates, a copy of data may be provided at a remote location. Such dual or shadow copies are typically made as the application system is writing new data to a primary storage device. International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), the assignee of the subject patent application, provides the following systems for maintaining remote copies of data at a secondary site, Extended Remote Copy (XRC) and Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy (PPRC). These systems provide a method for the continuous mirroring of data to a remote site to failover to during a failure at the primary site from which the data is being continuously mirrored. Such data mirroring systems can also provide an additional remote copy for non-recovery purposes, such as local access at a remote site. The IBM XRC and PPRC systems are described in the IBM publication "Remote Copy: Administrator's Guide and Reference," IBM document no. SC35-0169-02 (IBM Copyright 1994, 1996), which publication is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
In such backup systems, data is maintained in volume pairs. A volume pair is comprised of a volume in a primary storage device and a corresponding volume in a secondary storage device that includes an identical copy of the data maintained in the primary volume. Typically, the primary volume of the pair will be maintained in a primary direct access storage device (DASD) and the secondary volume of the pair is maintained in a secondary DASD shadowing the data on the primary DASD. A primary storage controller may be provided to control access to the primary DASD and a secondary storage controller may be provided to control access to the secondary DASD. In the IBM XRC environment, the application system writing data to the primary volumes includes a sysplex timer which provides a time-of-day (TOD) value as a time stamp to data writes. The host system time stamps data sets when writing such data sets to volumes in the primary DASD. The integrity of data updates is related to insuring that updates are done at the secondary volumes in the volume pair in the same order as they were done on the primary volume. In XRC and other prior art systems, the cross systems common time stamp provided by the system on behalf of the application program determines and maintains the logical sequence of data updates across any number of data volumes on any number of storage systems. In many application programs, such as database systems, certain writes cannot occur unless a previous write occurred; otherwise the data integrity would be jeopardized. Such a data write whose integrity is dependent on the occurrence of a previous data writes is known as a dependent write. For instance, if a customer opens an account, deposits $400, and then withdraws $300, the withdrawal update to the system is dependent on the occurrence of the other writes, the opening of the account and the deposit. When such dependent transactions are copied from the primary volumes to secondary volumes, the transaction order must be maintained to maintain the integrity of the dependent write operation.
Volumes in the primary and secondary DASDs are consistent when all writes have been transferred in their logical order, i.e., all dependent writes transferred first before the writes dependent thereon. In the banking example, this means that the deposit is written to the secondary volume before the withdrawal. A consistency group is a collection of updates to the primary volumes such that dependent writes are secured in a consistent manner. For instance, in the banking example, this means that the withdrawal transaction is in the same consistency group as the deposit or in a later group; the withdrawal cannot be in an earlier consistency group. Consistency groups maintain data consistency across volumes and storage devices. For instance, if a failure occurs, the deposit will be written to the secondary volume before the withdrawal. Thus, when data is recovered from the secondary volumes, the recovered data will be consistent.
A consistency time is a time the system derives from the application system's time stamp to the data set. A consistency group has a consistency time for all data writes in a consistency group having a time stamp equal or earlier than the consistency time stamp. In the IBM XRC environment, the consistency time is the latest time to which the system guarantees that updates to the secondary volumes are consistent. As long as the application program is writing data to the primary volume, the consistency time increases. However, if update activity ceases, then the consistency time does not change as there are no data sets with time stamps to provide a time reference for further consistency groups. If all the records in the consistency group are written to secondary volumes, then the reported consistency time reflects the latest time stamp of all records in the consistency group. Methods for maintaining the sequential consistency of data writes and forming consistency groups to maintain sequential consistency in the transfer of data between a primary DASD and secondary DASD are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,615,329 and 5,504,861, which are assigned to IBM, the assignee of the subject patent application, and which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
One technique to maintain consistency across copies is to timestamp data across primary volumes using a common clock source, referred to as a SYSPLEX timer. Updates will be transferred in groups defined as all updates having a timestamp less than a certain time. When clock synchronization cannot be easily implemented to form consistency groups across systems, then another technique for forming consistency groups is to determine a cut-off time. Any updates to primary volumes managed by the primary controller cache dated as of the that cut-off time are transferred to the secondary controller for storage in the secondary volumes. While transferring the data in the consistency group, the primary storage controller would return busy to any host requests while the data in the consistency group is transferred. After the data in the consistency group is transferred and the primary and secondary storage controller are synchronized, i.e., any updates whose timestamp is less than the cut-off time, then the primary controller would cease returning busy to the applications. This ensures that the primary and secondary volumes are consistent as of the freeze cut-off time.
Provided are a method, system, and program for forming a consistency group of data. Information is provided on a consistency group relationship indicating a plurality of slave controllers and, for each indicated slave controller, a slave storage unit managed by the slave controller. A command is transmitted to each slave controller in the consistency group relationship to cause each slave controller to transmit data in the slave storage unit to a remote storage in a manner that forms the consistency group. A determination is made as to whether all the slave controllers successfully transmitted the data in the slave storage units that is part of the consistency group to the remote storage.
In further implementations, the remote storage is located at a remote site and each slave storage unit is stored within a storage system attached to one slave controller.
In still further implementations, each slave controller maintains a first data structure indicating updated data in the slave storage unit, wherein the slave controller transmits data in the slave storage unit indicated in the first data structure to the remote storage. Further, a command is transmitted to each slave controller to cause the slave controller to generate a second data structure to indicate any writes received to the slave storage unit during the transmittal of data in the slave storage unit indicated in the first data structure to the remote storage.
In yet further implementations, a command is transmitted to each slave controller to cause each slave controller to initiate an operation to cause the data from the slave storage unit at the remote storage to be copied to a remote backup storage after determining that all the slave controllers have successfully transmitted the data in the slave storage units to the remote storage.
Further provided are a method, system, and program for forming a consistency group. A command is received from a master controller to generate a first data structure to indicate updates to a slave storage unit to form a consistency group initiated by the master controller and the first data structure is generated. A complete is transmitted to the master controller after generating the first data structure and the updated data in the slave storage unit indicated in a second data structure is copied to the remote storage, wherein the data is copied to form the consistency group. Complete is transmitted to the master controller after successfully copying the data in the slave storage unit to the remote storage.
In further implementations, indication is made in the second data structure that data in the slave storage unit is not updated in response to transmitting the corresponding data to the remote storage. Indication is also made in the second data structure of updated data in the slave storage unit that is indicated as updated in the first data structure in response to the second data structure not indicating any updated data to copy to the remote storage. Further, indication is made of updates to data in the slave storage unit in the second data structure that are received after completing the copying of the data to the remote storage.
Referring now to the drawings in which like reference numbers represent corresponding parts throughout:
In the following description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof and which illustrate several embodiments of the present invention. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and structural and operational changes may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
The remote site 10 may be hundreds or thousands of miles from the local site 2. The connections 12 a, 12 b, 12 c between pairs of storage controllers may comprise a dedicated line, such as a dedicated fibre optical network or connection maintained by a long distance telecommunication carrier, long distance fibre optic connection having channel extenders, or extend through a network, such as a Storage Area Network (SAN), Local Area Network (LAN), the Internet, and Intranet, etc.
Host systems (not shown) at the local site 2 may perform Input/Output (I/O) operations with respect to volumes in the storage systems 6 a, 6 b, and 6 c. The host systems may communicate with storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 6 c via any network or connection known in the art. The storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 4 c at the local site may have certain master-slave relationships with respect to the volumes managed by the storage controllers. For instance, one storage controller may be designated as a master, e.g., 4 c, and others designated as slaves, e.g., 4 a, 4 b, where certain volumes managed by the designated slaves are managed by the storage controller designated as the master. In this way, one master storage controller may manage remote copy operations for specified volumes for slave controllers designated as slaves for a particular master.
The storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 4 c, 8 a, 8 b, 8 c further include a processor complex and may comprise any storage controller or server known in the art, such as the IBM Enterprise Storage Server (ESS)�, 3990 Storage Controller, etc. (Enterprise Storage Server is a registered trademark of IBM). The storage systems 6 a, 6 b, 6 c, 14 a, 14 b, 14 c, 16 a, 16 c, and 16 c may comprise an array of storage devices, such as Just a Bunch of Disks (JBOD), Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) array, virtualization device, etc.
The local storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 4 c may communicate over a local network 18, which may comprise direct connections or a switched network. Alternatively, the storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 4 c may communicate over a link 12 a, b, c if the links also extend through a network at the local site 2.
In further implementations, the mirroring of data and consistency group management may occur on a session basis. A session may be defined as including multiple volumes that may be referenced using a session name when the session is started. A master-slave relationship may be assigned to a session so that relationship would apply to all volumes in the session. All volumes defined within a session would be included in the same consistency group.
The relationship information 64 may include a plurality of relationship assignments, one for each volume for which the storage controller is designated as a master or slave.
Further, the assignment information 64 for a master storage controller would include a relationship record 80 for each slave volume on a slave storage controller, where the slave storage controller and volume would be indicated in fields 86 and 88, respectively. The relationship information may be maintained in a different arrangement and format than shown in
An out-of-synch bitmap 66 includes a bit for each track that the slave storage controllers are to copy over to the corresponding remote storage. During normal copy operations, any writes to a storage controller are recorded in the out-of-synch bitmap (OOS) 66 and then copied over to the remote storage. The change recording bitmap 68 includes a bit for each track to which an update is received during the formation of a consistent set of data, where the formation occurs by the master storage controller, e.g., 4 c, managing the slaves, e.g., 4 a, 4 b, to all copy all the data in their out-of-synch bitmaps 66 as of a point in time. Further, the storage controllers 4 a, 4 b, 4 c may maintain one set of these bitmaps for each volume, or alternatively maintain one set of bitmaps 66 and 68 for a group of volumes in the attached storage 6 a, 6 b, 6 c.
In certain implementations, the storage controllers always run a background process to copy any tracks indicates as updated in their out-of-synch bitmaps to the remote storage. This process continues in the slave controllers even after the formation of a consistency group is initiated and the change recording bitmap created.
The primary storage controller 102 includes a read process 112 for reading data, and a write process 114 for writing data. The primary storage controller 102 also includes an async process 116 for transferring data from the primary storage controller 102 to remote storage, such as storage at the secondary storage controller 104. In certain implementations, the async process 116 may perform synchronization of data for an asynchronous PPRC Extended Distance service. In such cases, the async process 116 runs continuously for the PPRC Extended Distance service. In certain implementations, there may be multiple async processes (e.g., one async process for each volume on primary storage 108 for PPRC Extended Distance). In certain implementations, the read process 112, write process 114, and async process 116 are implemented as firmware. The secondary storage controller 104 writes the data received from the primary storage controller 102 to secondary storage 120, such as storages 14 a, 14 b, 14 c (
With respect to
Further, storage controllers asynchronously copying the data indicated in their out-of-synch (OOS) 66 bitmaps to the remote storage may perform conflict management operations. For instance, if a storage controller 4 a, 4 b, 4 c receives an update to a track whose corresponding bit in the OOS 66 is set to indicate that there already is an update for that track that has not yet been copied over to the remote site, where such older update may or may not be part of a consistency group, then the storage controller 4 a, 4 b, 4 c may take action to avoid overwriting the older update until such update has been copied over. Such conflict management would ensure an older update that is part of a consistency group is copied to the remote site to ensure consistency at the time of formation of the consistency group. In certain implementations, the storage controller receiving the update may queue the update until the older update is copied over to the remote site. Alternatively, the storage controller may return a "fail" to the update while there is a pending update to copy over. Additional details of managing conflicts with updated tracks indicated in the OOS are described in the copending and commonly assigned patent application entitled "Method, System, and Program for Asynchronous Copy", having U.S. application Ser. No. 10/675,317, which patent application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety and filed on Sep. 29, 2003.
With respect to
With respect to
With the described implementations, volumes subjected to a consistency group relationship may reside on storage systems managed by different storage controllers. A master storage controller would coordinate the remote copying of data at the different storage controllers when forming the consistency group.
The out-of-synch 66 and change recording 68 bitmaps may be used in alternative remote copy environments. For instance, in a single controller environment, without any master-slave relationships, the storage controller may receive a consistency group formation command to copy specified volumes managed by the storage controller to a remote site. In response, the storage controller would queue any further writes while generating the change recording bitmap 68. After generating the change recording bitmap 68, any queued writes and subsequent writes would be indicated in the change recording bitmap 68, and tracks indicated in the out-of-synch bitmap 66 would be copied to the remote site. After the OOS 66 is drained and the asynchronous remote copy operations completed, new writes may again be recorded in the OOS 66, the change recording bitmap 68 merged with the OOS 66, and then the change recording bitmap 68 discarded. Further, a virtual copy may be performed at the remote site of the volumes consistent as of the time of the storage controller receiving the point-in-time copy command.
In the implementation of
The described techniques to form consistency groups may be implemented as a method, apparatus or article of manufacture using standard programming and/or engineering techniques to produce software, firmware, hardware, or any combination thereof. The term "article of manufacture" as used herein refers to code or logic implemented in hardware logic (e.g., an integrated circuit chip, Programmable Gate Array (PGA), Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), etc.) or a computer readable medium, such as magnetic storage medium (e.g., hard disk drives, floppy disks, tape, etc.), optical storage (CD-ROMs, optical disks, etc.), volatile and non-volatile memory devices (e.g., EEPROMs, ROMs, PROMs, RAMs, DRAMs, SRAMs, firmware, programmable logic, etc.). Code in the computer readable medium is accessed and executed by a processor complex. The code in which preferred embodiments are implemented may further be accessible through a transmission media or from a file server over a network. In such cases, the article of manufacture in which the code is implemented may comprise a transmission media, such as a network transmission line, wireless transmission media, signals propagating through space, radio waves, infrared signals, etc. Thus, the "article of manufacture" may comprise the medium in which the code is embodied. Additionally, the "article of manufacture" may comprise a combination of hardware and software components in which the code is embodied, processed, and executed. Of course, those skilled in the art will recognize that many modifications may be made to this configuration without departing from the scope of the present invention, and that the article of manufacture may comprise any information bearing medium known in the art.
The described implementations were described with respect to the IBM Asynchronous Cascading PPRC computing environment. However, the described implementations for maintaining consistency could be applied to maintain consistency in other computing and vendor environments and using other data copying protocols and programs than described herein.
In described implementations, the master and storage controller processes were executed in a distributed computing environment. In alternative implementations one or more of the slave processor operations may be executed in the same machine or platform in which the master storage controller processes are executed.
In certain implementations, data in the storage devices is arranged in volumes. In alternative systems, the storage areas on which data is maintained may be grouped according to storage units other than volumes that are grouped in groupings other than sessions for the purpose of maintaining consistency.
In described implementations, the storage units designated as the slaves in the master-slave copy relationship comprised volumes. In alternative implementations, other storage unit values may be assigned as a slave to a master, where such storage units may comprise tracks in a volume, blocks, logical subsystems, logical drives, or any other physical or logical storage unit designation known in the art.
In described implementations, data updates were organized in consistency groups before being transferred from one storage controller to another. In alternative implementations, the data copied between the different storage controllers may not comprise a consistency group.
The described operations for forming a consistency group may be used in a critical data environment where high availability is paramount. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the point-in-time copy operations described herein may apply to storage systems used for non-critical data where high availability is not absolutely necessary.
In the described implementations, each storage controller copies data to a corresponding remote storage controller having an attached remote storage system. In alternative implementations, multiple storage controllers at the local or intermediate site may copy data to one remote storage controller, where a single remote storage controller may receive point-in-time data from multiple local or intermediate storage controllers.
The illustrated logic of
The foregoing description of various implementations of the invention has been presented for the purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. Many modifications and variations are possible in light of the above teaching. It is intended that the scope of the invention be limited not by this detailed description, but rather by the claims appended hereto. The above specification, examples and data provide a complete description of the manufacture and use of the composition of the invention. Since many embodiments of the invention can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, the invention resides in the claims hereinafter appended.

The year's first full-court buzzer-beater is a fantastic one from Wisconsin
Ladies and gentlemen, we have our first legitimate crazypants full-court buzzer-beater of the 2012-13 hoops season, and it's just as tremendous as one could hope for.
The video you see above comes from Wisconsin, where Monticello (Wis.) High junior Lucas Marty corralled a missed shot by a guard for what Prep Rally believes to be Highland (Wis.) High. By the time Marty gained control of the ball, he had just enough time to turn, swivel and heave the ball down the court.
Incredibly, the shot went in, even if it was launched more like a discus than a basketball, as noted by SportsGrid.
According to WisSports.net, Monticello went on to win the matchup with Highland by a final score of 48-37. And it was Monticello star Ben May, not Marty, who led the Mustangs in scoring with 18 points.
Regardless, it seems awfully likely that the shot everyone will remember came during a run at the end of a period that carried little consequence rather than during a key first-half run.

PSA/Peugeot-Citroen's plan to develop a low-cost car for emerging markets has been indefinitely suspended. This car was supposed to be built at PSA's plant in Madrid, Spain. The automaker is presently in talks to expand its alliance with General Motors Co. in order to cover more vehicle categories and technologies.
A project to develop a dual-clutch transmission was also delayed by seven months. This was expected to be used on Peugeot and Citroen cars in 2013 as part of its expansion of fuel-saving technologies. PSA said that it will explore more cost-effective pathways specifically through the GM alliance to provide the group with this type of gearbox.
PSA said that among the projects that will be shared with GM are the development of larger vehicles, dual-clutch transmissions and a compact car for growing markets such as those in Latin America. These projects would be added to the pooled development and production of subcompacts and mid-sized cars that were unveiled last month.
The Peugeot brand had a plan to launch a low-cost compact notchback sedan in 2013 that was codenamed M3 to rival Renault's Logan and aimed at developing markets in eastern Europe, China, North Africa and Latin America. This car is supposed to be more upscale than the Logan, but is mechanically simpler and much easier to maintain than comparable PSA models sold in Europe. PSA may revive the Talbot brand name for this car.

'The Living Daylights' Is My Favorite James Bond Movie
With 23 different entries, the Bond series offers something for everyone. Different Bond attitudes, varying scales of action, unique approaches to humor and charm — like a blockbuster Mad Libs, the 007 formula has its blueprints, but leaves plenty of room to play.
That makes picking a favorite difficult, but there's a Bond movie that sums up everything to love about James and his particular brand of spy entertainment, it's the under-seen, under-appreciated 1987 gem The Living Daylights. Under the eye of longtime Bond editor and director John Glen, Living Daylights marks the first of British thespian Timothy Dalton's two entries (he followed it with 1989's Licence to Kill). After years of courting the actor, producers finally got their wish for Dalton to take on the role — and with his addition came a darker, more sophisticated tone.
The plot for The Living Daylights fits snuggly in the Bond ideology, riffing off Cold War themes and taking just enough coherent twists and turns to keep us on our toes. In the beginning, Bond is assigned to help defecting KGB officer General Koskov escape Czechoslovakia. But Koskov has ulterior motives; behind-the-scenes, the Russian military man is working with Brad Whitaker, a nefarious American arms dealer. When Bond catches wind of the deception, he hits the road with a orchestral cellist-turned-sniper to uncover Koskov's operation: a grander scheme rooted in opium trade and the Soviet war in Afghanistan. That's a lot of meat on the bones of Living Daylights, but in true Bond fashion, the thrills are never bogged down by the politics.
Living Daylights goes from standard issued to quintessential Bond thanks to Dalton's pitch perfect performance. There's a reason he's barely remembered in the pantheon (and why certain Bond enthusiasts will dismiss those of us who enjoy him!): he attempted to do what Daniel Craig did in 2006, but at a time when people weren't ready for it. The actor was 43 when he earned his Double-0 status, and it shows. His Bond is rugged, a bit weathered, and often cold. Whereas previous Bonds found comedy in fumbling around, Dalton was committed to playing the spy with an unflinching determination for getting the job done. In the opening, Bond participates in a skydiving exercise that ends with the death of his fellow MI-6 comrades. When he encounters one of the dead bodies, we see a twitch of emotion, a desire for revenge as he eyes a mysterious note: "Smert Spionam," translated as "Death to Spies." Bond escapes unharmed, but you know he's going to bust up whoever killed off his coworkers.
Dalton's Bond is unexpectedly relentless — at one point, he roughly strips a girl naked in order to momentarily distract and kill a gut-toting bodyguard — but there's plenty of heart in Living Daylights. Maryam d'Abo as Kara Milovy, the musician who becomes an integral part of Bond's mission and evolves into his romantic interest, drops the exaggerated personas of past "Bond Girls" and makes for a viable partner for Bond. Dalton's version of the character reciprocates, showing off a level of sweetness rarely found in the hound dogs of Bond history. The humor is there too, with Dalton coating the eyeroll-worthy one-liners with the level of gravitas only a Shakespearean-trained actor could provide. That's something Craig has rarely been able to land and a poison to the later Moore movies, but in Living Daylights, Dalton seamlessly transitions from smirking debonaire to lethal badass faster than the shot of a PPK. Not every Bond could pull off wearing a tux to a carnival.
The Living Daylights also bridges the gap between the action of Bond old and new. There's nothing that could top the adrenaline-pumping train car fisticuffs of From Russia with Love, but Living Daylights wisely mixes similar close-quarters fighting with large-scale action. If you think Bond movies pre-1990 don't hold up in the spectacle department against today's action-infused adventures, Living Daylights should change your mind. The stunts Glen pulls off in the installment are unreal: Dalton is fully capable of beating the… living daylights… out of his adversaries (see: the jail escape sequence) and matching the physicality in a number of shootouts, including a wild finale with the Whitaker character. The infamous cello case chase scene, in which Bond and Kara sled down a mountain on the cellist's instrument of choice, embraces the absurd in a way the Moore films seem oblivious too. And the grand finale — riding the heels of Bond leading an Afghan Mujahideen and his troops into battle against the Russians evoking a Lawrence of Arabia vibe — matches anything on display in the Craig Bond films or even the recent work of Christopher Nolan. Nolan is known to be a Bond nut and it's obvious he took some cues from Dalton's films. The aerial stunt, almost all practically shot in the air with stunt men, seems inconceivable in the today's CG-minded special effects world.
It's hard to pick just one Bond, but if there's one that deserves a little more consideration and appreciation in the history books, it's The Living Daylights. Any movie with an a-ha theme song shouldn't take convincing.

Sysadmin Trick: Custom Bash Prompt and Shortened Path Display
As a sysadmin I spend a lot of time logged into other servers via SSH session. Often I have to log into systems I am not familiar with, and it is very easy to forget which one of the seven terminals that you are working in is actually logged into a remote machine.
I am certain I am not the only one that have accidentally shutdown a server while logged into it. Newby mistake, and never repeated due to this trick I learned.

History of the present building
The present Boynton Woman's Club, 1010 South Federal Highway, was designed by famed architect, Addison Mizner, and was built 1925-1926 for $50,000.
The cornerstone was laid in 1932 and the building and property were dedicated to Major Nathan Smith Boynton, whose heirs contributed $35,000 toward this lasting memorial to him.
Shortly after the building was completed area residents sought shelter from a hurricane within its walls. Many of the local community organizations and churches held their first meetings in this building.
During World War II the Red Cross and the USO used the building as a center. It housed the community's library until 1961, and continues to serve as a social and cultural center. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
The Mizner Foundation was instrumental in repairing the building in time for the Diamond Jubilee in 1986. We continue to focus on maintaining this historical and beautiful building through our fundraising efforts within the community.med artist, Bernard Thomas.

As regular readers may know, my sister and I have spent the last few months clearing our family house in preparation for its sale. The house has been in our family since it was built at the beginning of the 20th century, belonging to our Great Uncle Will before our grandparents, parents and us. Most of our ancestors were simple, working people so we have no costly family heirlooms to consider, nor do either of us have space for anything substantial so what we have kept is small, but in some way captures the essence of the person for us to remember them by.
Uncle Will was a cabinet maker. Dad had a huge heavy chest in his shed which contained all the box planes and chisels which comprised the tools of his trade. We were delighted to be able to pass these on to our cousin who has the space to keep them and the skills to use them but I couldn't resist keeping this one. It is only two inches long but has a proper blade in it and still works.
I love the patina of the wood and the fact that, as with all his tools, Uncle Will took the trouble to monogram it. I like to feel the connection with my ancestors who also made their living through the skill and creativity of their hands.
My next object, even smaller this time, belonged to my paternal grandfather, who was a quiet, gentle man from County Durham who I can just about remember although he died when I was quite small. He loved nothing better than to take himself off into the countryside and was, it turns out, quite an eminent amateur botanist. The object that I have chosen to keep to remind me of him is this, made in tortoiseshell and small enough to hang from a key ring and carry in the pocket.
It is the set of magnifying glasses that he used to examine the plants that he came across on his walks. I seem to remember it was most often used in our house for the removal of splinters but it reminds me that in my family there have been people who were happy in and curious about the natural world, and cared about the environment which is something that is very much part of my life. It also makes me think about my nephew's enthusiasm for watching birds and being out in the hills around his home. Thinking about this continuity makes dealing with the loss of loved ones much easier to cope with.
These objects give me a small amount of insight into where my creativity might come from, not just from my mother and grandmother who put the knitting needles in my hands but to all the other family members who made and discovered things with hand and eye.
It also made me wonder about the sort of small object that might remind people of me. A circular knitting needle? A ball winder? Perhaps. Useful, but not very pretty. Or maybe a lovely drop spindle, like this one from IST which, like the other objects on this page is intrinsically beautiful but also made to be used. Tools this handsome are a joy to use and I always have a drop spindling project on the go.
Do you have an object which encapsulates you and your creativity or that of a loved one?

I have been there. Looking back now, I understand that it was all part of the grieving process and it would bring on a flood of emotions. Even after this last loss (at 10 weeks) I have some issues being around young babies. I skipped a party last weekend because there were 3 brand new babies there. I continued to struggle with this while pregnant with our rainbow, but it did get better after he was born. ((HUGS)) Be kind to yourself and allow yourself the time you need to grieve. Unfortunately the pain never goes away, but in time, you will learn to LIVE with the pain.
((HUGS)) to you too @momRT (I had to leave a restraunt once, it was awful!)

SPCA says it has reached settlement with Hoskins over fate of horses
A four-year legal battle over the custody of the 73 horses seized by the SPCA Serving Erie County from Beth Lynn Hoskins' farm in East Aurora for animal cruelty has been settled, according to the SPCA.
Hoskins gets to keep 35 of the seized horses and has until Oct. 30 to sell 33 others, under the settlement reached in State Supreme Court, the SPCA said Tuesday.
Five of the Morgan horses seized from Hoskins' farm in March 2010 have died since then, reducing the total number to 68.
The settlement requires the horses be kept in a safe, sanitary location, and that their care meets guidelines based on the New York State Horse Council's minimum standards of care, according to the SPCA.
A court-appointed inspector will make regular, ongoing inspections.
In October, Aurora Town Justice Douglas W. Marky sentenced Hoskins to three years of probation, including 500 hours of community service, and fined her $52,410 on misdemeanor animal cruelty charges.
The judge imposed the sentence after convicting her of abusing 52 of the horses, but he did not rule on the custody of the horses, leaving that decision to State Supreme Court Justice Joseph R. Glownia, who was handling the civil lawsuits filed in the case, according to the SPCA.
Barbara Carr, executive director of the SPCA, said she was satisfied with the settlement "because it speaks to the care of the horses, which is what everybody wants."
"This settlement order is not very different from what we were hoping for days after the rescue took place," she said in a statement.
"So many people have been involved with this case for so long. We need to be careful to maintain focus through this process," she said.
"We need to be careful to not let angry feelings distract us from a resolution that keeps these animals safe. This isn't our first attempt at a resolution. In four years, however, it's the first one we felt protects the animals into the future."
Carr questioned Marky for what she said was his failure to rule on the custody issue, and she praised Glownia for presiding over a settlement that protects the horses.
"In 21 years at the SPCA Serving Erie County, I have not seen a criminal judge fail to determine the disposition of animals in a case," she said.
"Judge Marky, in the criminal case, chose to shift this responsibility onto Judge Glownia in the civil case, who has worked hard on this order for several months. He feels strongly that Ms. Hoskins must have custody of her horses to sell them, which is why he put together such a tight agreement."
After the 73 horses were seized by the SPCA on March 18, 2010, 40 were eventually returned to Hoskins, leaving the SPCA with 33. But four of the horses died while in SPCA custody, leaving it with 29, and one of the 40 died while in Hoskins' custody.
Under the settlement, the SPCA will return those 29 horses to Hoskins, leaving her with 68 horses.
She must sell 33 of the 68 horses by Oct. 30, with the first 16 to be sold or transferred by Aug. 30.
She can keep the 35 remaining horses through Oct. 16, 2016, the end of her probationary term, and beyond that date, "provided the horses are in a safe, sanitary location, and that their care meets guidelines based on the New York State Horse Council's minimum standards of care," according to the SPCA.
"Regular, ongoing inspections through the terms of the agreement will be made by a court-appointed inspector who, together with the court, will decide the number of employees Hoskins will be required to hire, and for a specified number of hours per week," the SPCA said in a statement.
Carr said the SPCA spent $1.3 million on all aspects of Hoskins case, including legal costs and the cost of caring for the horses over the last four years.
She said the SPCA received monthly payments totaling $305,000 from a bond that Hoskins secured.
She added that Hoskins also has to pay the SPCA another $300,000 over a one-year period.
She said the SPCA is not out the remaining $700,000 in costs associated with the case. "It's our job to take care of animals and it's her job to pay some of the costs," she said.
Gregory L. Davis, Hoskins' attorney in the civil cases, could not be reached to comment.

Kevin Davis is still sitting with two offers from Air Force and Colorado State but the Fountain (Colo.) Fountain Fort Carson outside linebacker is willing to wait through the spring and summer to see if other programs get involved.
Oregon, Vanderbilt and Wyoming are the main schools showing interest in Davis, a 6-foot-2, 218-pound recruit who said he's still wide open in his recruitment and won't rush a decision.
"I'm taking it slow," Davis said. "That's kind of how I'm going about it. I want to see how many offers I can really get. Any offer from any school is really great.
Article Continues Below
"If I get enough I'd like to do it before my senior year. I'd like to get it done at least before the season starts."
Davis has already visited both Colorado State and Air Force. Each school impressed him in different ways but not enough to make a commitment at this time. Patience is going to be the key throughout the next couple months as more programs stop by his school and show interest.
"(Colorado State) is a very nice school with a great coaching staff," Davis said. "That really stood out to me and they're going to do some good things in the future.
"(At Air Force), I really wanted to see the place overall and see the facilities. I want to meet the coaching staff more, too."
In his junior season, Davis finished with 103 tackles, seven sacks, three fumble recoveries and an interception. He also played offense and was his team's punter and kicker.
Davis told Rivals.com in February that he would prefer to play at an in-state school and that Colorado and Colorado State have been the most involved.

Kathu Festival, or the 'Kathu Street Culture Festival' as it is known in full, is a rather new event compared to other well-known festivals on the island but it's getting popular and draws a bigger and bigger crowd each year of its existence. Spectators will enjoy checking out the street stalls, stage shows, live music, exhibitions and Thai traditional children's games.
This all takes place because the folks at Kathu want to celebrate and promote their traditions and customs as well as pass them on to the next generations.
- Phuket FantaSea Cultural Theme Park
- Phi Phi Islands Tour with Express Boat
- James Bond Island Full-Day Tour via Big Boat
- Coral & Racha Islands Full-Day Tour
- Whitewater Rafting & 4-Wheel-Drive Adventure
- Sea Kayaking at Ang Thong Marine Park
- Flying Hanuman Ziplining Experience
- Canoeing Excursion in Phang Nga Bay with Thai Buffet Lunch
- Introduction to City Tour
- John Gray's Cave Canoeing Tour in Phang Nga Bay
In the old days, Kathu as a small village relied on two main industries; rice farming and tin mining. The latter was the main force that put Kathu on the map. Visitors will get to see quite a few very interesting exhibitions devoted to this subject.
The festival also underscores the fact that many Kathu residents are of Thai-Chinese extraction. It features Chinese-influenced local treats (many are vegetarian dishes), lion dances, martial arts, parades where people put on their best Chinese-style attire as well as Phuket traditional costumes.
The demonstrations of how to set up an offering table for Chinese gods/deities. Where to position the selected offerings on the table is very important and has to be planned ahead. Also, each of the items has a special meaning. For example, fruits that are usually seen on the offering table are oranges (representing good luck), pineapples (referring to the variety of good opportunities in life), apples (peacefulness) and grapes (prosperity).
This activity is traditionally very important for families as it's not only a chance to pay respect to what they believe but also for family members to spend time together. After the ceremony, the womenfolk will start cooking noodles, pork, chicken and/or seafood from the offering table, and then they will all eat together. Kids will get to eat some delicious sweets that are especially made for important events such as this one.
Dressing with respect is important when joining any kind of traditional events in Thailand. For ladies, avoid wearing anything that is too short or too revealing.
The weather can be unpredictable most of the time in low season. It's a wise idea to bring along an umbrella. Kathu Shrine, also in Kathu, is known as the original home of the famous Phuket Vegetarian festival. It's worth it to pay a visit.
Kathu Festival
- Opening Hours: Best time to go: After 17:30
- Location: Around Kathu market, one of the biggest markets on the island, which is located on Wichit Songkram Road. Kathu is roughly halfway between Patong and Phuket Town.

Shop at Forever 21 Tee: $15.90
Are we bragging about this now? And $15.90? They'd have to pay ME to wear that, thing. Not only are you a walking advertisement for Forever 21, you're also putting your own self on blast.
This is t-shirt equivalent of Madonna's Instagram. It's tacky, it's trying too hard and everyone around it just feels embarrassed for it.
Can we talk about this for a second? Madonna's Instagram is the most confusing thing in my life right now. It's like her consciousness has been forcefully inhabited by the souls of all our dead grandparents and one REALLY dominant stripper and their fight for control of The Entity Known as Madonna is playing out through heavily altered, sexual images and posts you'd expect to see on r/forwardsfromgrandma.
Exhibit B:
Ugh. Call me when she starts blaming everything on Obama.
Forever 21 and Madonna, WTF?

That is an exceptionally small file size. It would seem as if your picture is very pixelated causing the blurring. Only a larger pictiure will cure this. I asked where the pictures come from but you didn't reply!!

Sometimes I have trouble explaining things so here goes. I go to my library and open my pictures. Whatever is in this picture library shows up. I have found listings ie 1000_original...which I click on to open. A listing of how I want to open the item gave me a choice to have it open in paint, or even my photo gallery besides many other places. I usually click on paint and a small picture does come up in the paint box.
I am able to drag the listing number ie 1000_original to windows dvd maker and the picture does show up there but it is very blurry and from what you have told me a picture of this size would be blurry.
You have answered my question and I really thank you for this. I will stay away from those ie 1000_originals. I can't use them the way I wanted to. Thank you for taking the time to help me. I really appreciate it. Bye
