FO: Maple the Squirrel
Pattern: Squirrel and the cardigan is from clothing bundle 3 .
Yarn: Bernat Solids. I know it's acrylic craft yarn, but it's perfect for machine washable children's toys.
Needles: 4mm / US 6
Mods: I made the ears much smaller, by really just using three stitches (squirrels have really small ears!). I also used the idea of the tail construction from the Brooklyn General Store Squirrel Pattern, but had to sew the seam of the tail (which is constructed like a pom pom) since I didn't quite understand how to crochet a tail seam. For the cardigan, I made a small hole in the back of the cardigan so that Maple's tail could be pulled through for maximum tail glory!
I named her Maple because she's the colour of maple sugar and is, of course, Canadian! Although for those unfamiliar with Canada, please note: we do not have real maple sugar squirrels here.
She's already in transit to New York to begin her squirrely adventures. Brooklyn General, I know you'll take good care of her while she's there!
And hey- if you are wanting to get your squirrels in, the deadline is May 15th- there's still time! Toys knit up so quickly, and there is always express shipping if you need to get it there overnight.

So cute! I'm known as Maple in some circles so I feel a special affinity with your squirrel :) Have you ever come across a pattern for a moose? I suppose the squirrel with a different tail and some bucky teeth could almost pass for a beaver too :) Go Canada!

View search and A to Z
Since 10th August 2006, it has been a legal requirement that Design and Access Statements are submitted to accompany planning applications for certain proposals.
A design and access statement is a short report accompanying and supporting a planning application to illustrate the process that has led to the development that is proposed, and to explain the proposal in a structured way.� The level of detail required in a DAS depends on the scale and complexity of the application, and the length of the statement varies accordingly.� Statements must be proportionate to the complexity of the application, but need not be long.
Design and access statements allow local communities, access groups, amenity groups and other stakeholders to involve themselves in the planning process without needing to understand plans that may be technical and confusing.
When a design and access statement is required
Changes in legislation took effect on 6th April 2010.� Design and access statements are now required for all planning applications for full and outline planning permission, with the following exceptions, and for all applications for listed building consent.
(a) Development of land pursuant to section 73 (determination of applications to develop land without conditions previously attached) of the Act;
(b)� engineering or mining operations;
(c)� a material change in use of land or buildings;
(d) development of an existing dwellinghouse or flat, or development within the curtilage of a dwellinghouse or flat for any purpose incidental to the enjoyment of the dwellinghouse or flat, where no part of that dwelling, flat or curtilage is within a designated area*;
(e) the extension of an existing building used for non-domestic purposes where the floor space created by the development does not exceed 100 square metres and where no part of the building or the development is within a designated area*.
(f)�� the erection, construction, improvement or alteration of a gate, fence, wall or other means of enclosure where �
(i) as a result of the development, the height of the gate, fence, wall or means of enclosure does not exceed its former height, or 2 metres above ground level, whichever is the greater; and
(ii) it does not involve development within the curtilage of, or to a gate, fence, wall or other means of enclosure surrounding, a listed building;
and where no part of the development is within a designated area*;
(g) development on operational land consisting of the erection of a building where�
(i) the cubic content of the development does not exceed 100 cubic metres; and
(ii) as a result of the development, the height of the building does not exceed 15 metres above ground level, or its former height, whichever is the greater;
and where no part of the development is within a designated area*;
(h) the alteration of an existing building where the alteration does not increase the size of the building and where no part of the building is within a designated area*;
i)�� the erection, alteration or replacement of plant or machinery where, as a result of the development, the height of the plant or machinery does not exceed 15 metres above ground level, or its former height, whichever is the greater, and where no part of the development is within a designated area*;
(j)� an application for planning permission where the development that is the subject of the application�
(i) has not yet begun; and
(ii) was granted planning permission on or before 1st October 2009 subject to a time limit imposed by or under section 91 (general condition limiting duration of planning permission) or 92 (outline planning permission) of the 1990 Act (a) which has not expired; or
(k) an application for outline planning permission where the development that is the subject of the application�
(i) has begun in accordance with the terms of, and any reserved matters approved under, an outline planning permission which is required or expressly permitted to be implemented in phases, other than a permission granted on an application made under paragraph (b); and
(ii) was granted that outline planning permission on or before 1st October 2009 subject to a time limit which has not expired.
* In the context of Newcastle under Lyme Borough Council a designated area means a Conservation Area (the legislation also defines a designated area as a World Heritage Site).
The status of the design and access statement
The Act enables Local Planning Authorities to refuse to register applications that are submitted without a DAS, when it is required, on the grounds that they are invalid. Similarly, statements which do not follow the requirements of a statement will prevent an application from being registered.
The Design and Access Statement will be a material consideration, and the commitments made within them may be enforced through conditions or Legal Agreements.
What is required: general points
Statements should evolve throughout the design and development process and should explain the proposals already set out in the planning application.� The most important message a design and access statement should deliver is that the proposal is based on a good understanding of the character and setting of the application site.
The design and access statement should cover the design principles and concepts that have been applied to particular aspects of the proposal.� These are;
Amount � how much development is proposed and why this is considered appropriate.
Layout � the way in which buildings, routes and open spaces are provided, placed and orientated in relation to each other and buildings and spaces surrounding the development.�
Scale � the height, width and length of a building or buildings in relation to its surroundings and how this fits into the local environment.�
Landscaping � the treatment of private and public spaces to enhance or protect the amenities of the site and the area in which it is situated.
Appearance � what the finished buildings and spaces will look like and how this will enhance or protect the local area.
In addition a design and access statement must demonstrate the steps taken to appraise the context of the development (i.e. the local physical, economic and social context) and how the design of the development takes that context into account in relation to its proposed use and each of the aspects above.
Where an application for listed building consent is involved, the design component of a statement should also include an explanation of how the design principles and concepts of scale, layout and appearance have taken account of relevant national policy set out in Planning Policy Statement 5, Planning and the Historic Environment and in particular: -
1.�The special architectural or historic importance of the building;
2.�The particular physical features of the building that justify its designation as a listed building; and
3.�The buildings setting.
The statement should also-
(a)�� explain the policy adopted as to access, including what alternative means of access have been considered, and how policies relating to access in relevant Development Plan documents have been taken into account;
(b)�� explain how the policy as to access takes account of-
(i)���������������� the special architectural or historic importance of the building;
(ii)�������������� the particular physical features of the building that justify its designation as a listed building; and
(iii)������������ the building's setting;
(c)�� state what, if any, consultation has been undertaken and what account has been taken of the outcome of any such consultation
(d)�� explain how any specific issues which might affect access to the building have been addressed; and
(e)�� explain how features which ensure access to the building will be maintained.

Movie-Theater Mishap & Mani-Pedi Refused: Best of the Blotter
The most bizarre police reports from departments throughout Northeast Ohio.
Northeast Ohio police departments have been busy with plenty of outlandish offenses. Here are the weirdest reports of the week. All information was provided by police reports from departments in Patch communities.
No mani-pedi here: Charles Swinney wouldn't take 'no' for an answer when it came to his nails.
Mentor Police say the 43-year-old Cleveland man went into Asian Nails after several drinks and became irate when employees refused to give him a manicure and pedicure. He had a duffel bag with him and continually reached into it during the confrontation. That made four or five people scurry from the business.
He told police getting a mani-pedi was on his "bucket list."
He pleaded no contest to inducing panic and resisting arrest and was convicted in Mentor Municipal Court. The third charge of persistent disorderly conduct was dismissed.
Judge John Trebets sentenced him to 90 days in jail Wednesday but suspended 88 of those days. He got credit for two days and was fined $1,750 plus court costs.
Rolling around in the theater: Solon Police arrested an 18-year-old man for underage drinking after finding him laying on a sidewalk, covered in his vomit.
The man had been thrown out of Solon Cinemas for throwing up and removing his clothes during a movie. Police said employees removed him after he began rolling on the floor of a showing in an attempt to get his vomit-covered clothes off.
Not surprisingly, he told police he was really drunk and didn't know what was going on.
An ugly return: An Akron man believed an unsuccessful product return at Target was worth making threats.
Fairlawn police charged a 54-year-old man with menacing after several calls to the Fairlawn store in which he told an operator "I will get you" and "come to her house, knock down the (expletive) door and drag her to the cemetery in chains," according to police.
The calls began on June 7. He made them because the store would not accept a return for CD player the man didn't have a receipt for. He followed orders to turn himself in within 24 hours.
GetGoing, man — Giant Eagle told a man to get live up to the name of its gas station — GetGo.
Jeremy Thompson, 18, has been banned from the Twinsburg location for making threats to employees on June 6. When employees got him to leave, the man went to his car, where police arrested him for criminal trespassing.
He already had a warrant out in Streetsboro for failure to appear in court on drug charges. Twinsburg Police released him that night, but transferred him to Streetsboro.
You left something behind: Leaving your identification behind is the easiest way to get caught shoplifting.
Stow Police said a man did just that after he and another man tried to return purchases they didn't make at WalMart. The men picked up two end tables, valued at $170, and tried to return them. Customer service gave them a store credit, but after talking with an employee, the men left. One let his ID on the customer service desk.
The men face attempted theft charges.

Isn't it amazing that a 17 yr old, (with parental consent) or an 18, 19, 20 yr old, can enlist in the US military, be deployed & kill the enemy if need be, but he/she, can't buy or share a drink, with his/her fellow soldiers, until age 21, in the good old USA.
Backwards much?
Troy McClure
7:52 am on Monday, June 18, 2012
The only thing "backwards" is your 'logic' of playing this card.
Brandon Baker
5:46 pm on Sunday, June 17, 2012
That's been the debate for years. But I think it's safe to say one who does what this man did would get kicked out of a movie theater, regardless the legal drinking age.
10:19 pm on Sunday, June 17, 2012
Agreed, but considering most countries, save a few, the legal drinking age is 18, maybe this young man wouldn't be as drunk as he was if he could drink legally.

NCNK Issue Briefs
POW/MIA News
US Suspends Efforts to Recover Fallen Troop Remains in North Korea (March 21, 2012) The Washington Post reports that the US is suspending planned remains recovery missions in North Korea. Spokespersons for the Pentagon cited the DPRK's planned satellite launch, bellicose statements about South Korea, and linkage of the missions to US-ROK joint military exercises led to the decision to suspend the operations. The US left open the possibility of resuming the missions if the situation improves.

Bryant told The Associated Press Tuesday he supports both measures. Tuesday was the last day for Bryant to act without the bills becoming law without his signature.
One measure allows a multi-year rate plan for the plant. Another bill allows the unit of Atlanta-based Southern Co. to sell up to $1 billion in bonds to pay Kemper costs over $2.4 billion.
The settlement says Mississippi Power can earn profit on $2.4 billion in plant costs as well as $377 million in lignite mine and pipeline costs. Customers would repay debt on costs above $2.4 billion, but Mississippi Power would earn no profit.

My family likes this casserole a lot-especially my 11 year old daughter. I don't put as much tarragon in as the recipe calls for since it is a strong spice. Nice, mild casserole.
Reviewed on Jan. 29, 2013 by Bugglady78
Very mild tasting.

This had no flavour, other than the tarragon which didn't seem to go with the dish. At least it did stay creamy, though.
Reviewed on Dec. 19, 2010 by MrsAdams2007
I thought this was pretty good and very easy. I used less tarragon and I think that's a pretty good idea. I think next time I will brown the chicken or use rotisserie for more flavor.
Reviewed on Oct. 25, 2010 by kneel4fun
I've been making this regularly since the recipe came out years ago. Substituting milk for the half and half works fine and reduces the fat. Since I don't care for tarragon, I substitute the same amount of basil and it comes out tasty.

Made the Tarragon Chicken Casserole this week. I added 1/3 cup diced onion. I like onion in my tarragon chicken salad so I thought it would taste good. We really liked it and hubby asked for it twice in his lunch this week. I'll be making this again for sure.

This was ok, but nothing special. I like tarragon, but think it was a little too strong in this casserole. The next day I added some ranch dressing to it before reheating, and it actually tasted better. If I make again I'll definitely make some changes.

The Tarragon Chicken Casserole was a big hit with my family! I added a small can of mushrooms and onion flakes to it and it tasted a little bit like chicken stroganoff. I only had full fat cream of chicken soup and full fat half and half on hand, but you could lower the fat intake by buying the 98% fat-free cream of mushroom soup and fat-free half and half. Also, I cut the recipe in half to make 6 servings instead of 12 and put it in the oven for 20 minutes. Perfect!

I used 1/4 cup of chopped fresh tarragon. A little different taste and delicious. Since I only cook for two now I divided into two pans and one is in the freezer for a quick dinner later.

Larry Fedora on the Attack
By Stuart Barefoot
Follow us at Twitter.com/SouthernPigskin. Become a fan at the SouthernPigskin.com Facebook Page
Larry Fedora is bringing his up-tempo, attacking style to the UNC program.
The Everett Withers era at North Carolina ended with the Tar Heels losing 41-24 to Missouri in the Independence Bowl to cap off a modest 7-6 season. After an offseason coaching change, the Larry Fedora era is set to start on September 1 when the Tar Heels play Elon in Chapel Hill. The woes for the UNC football program are well documented and widely known, and the Heels would welcome the chance to turn the page on an ugly chapter in school history. The school seems to think Fedora is the guy to lead the way during the crucial 2012 season. With football season rapidly approaching, an introduction to the man heading the Heels is in order.
Fedora most recently spent four years as the head coach at Southern Mississippi, ending his tenure with an impressive 12-2 season in 2011. In four seasons with the Golden Eagles, he racked up an impressive record of 34-19, including a Conference USA championship this past year. As a former offensive coordinator at Florida (2002-2004) and Oklahoma State(2005-2007), his resume is very impressive. He has stated that he plans to use the spread offense at UNC, which has been his strategy virtually his entire career.
Despite harsh NCAA sanctions and coaching turnover, the Tar Heels have not lacked talent the last several seasons, and Fedora has always been known for his ability to do more with less. In his four seasons at Southern Miss, his teams compiled more than 5,000 yards of total offense in every year. They had a particularly impressive 2011 campaign, amassing the aforementioned 12 wins, while also ranking amongst the most talented offenses in the country. Averaging 461.4 yards per game, the Golden Eagles were 17th in the country in total offense and finished 14th in scoring offense at 36.9 points a game. The 2011 team also set a school record by tallying 6,459 yards. Granted they did that work in a fairly weak Conference USA, but it's still an impressive body of work.
Attempting to learn the new offense has introduced quite the learning curve for the Heels. During the Blue-White spring scrimmage in April, Fedora and offensive coordinator Blake Anderson felt like the offense wasn't going fast enough, according to the Greensboro News and Record. Still,once UNC is comfortable with Fedora's style of play, they have the means to wreak havoc on defenses in the ACC. Both Fedora and Anderson have the luxury of returning players such as QB Bryn Renner, RB Giovani Bernard and senior WR Erik Highsmith. For a team that finished 52nd in the country in total offense last year, there is plenty of reason to believe that 2012 has better things in store.
Joining Fedora in Chapel Hill will be many of the members of his coaching staff from Southern Miss. Anderson was also the offensive coordinator under Fedora at Southern Miss, and helped coach one of the nation's top offenses last fall. Defensive coordinator Don Diesch, tight ends coach Walt Bell and defensive line coach Deke Adams have also made the transition to Chapel Hill.
More important than the new coaches and the faster paced offense is the chance for the program to find redemption off the field. Firing a successful, winning coach like Butch Davis was a risky move on the part of the school, and a coach like Fedora gives them that much needed change. At his press conference in December, Fedora ended by quoting General George Patton. "Instead of waiting to see what might develop, attack constantly, vigorously and viciously. Never let up, never stop, always attack." Fedora has the same philosophy on both sides of the ball.

ACU Drunk Course
By: Brittany Pelletz
Updated: March 3, 2009
I, Brittany Pelletz, checked in with the students and even put myself to the test.
Today was about drinking and driving.
"I've never been drunk," states one student, "but I felt like I was drunk today."
Students at ACU got a feel for what drinking and driving is like as part of a week long event called "Making Good Choices."
Peer Health Coordinator, Naomi Mimandell said, "It's a week that just encourages students to make wise, good, healthy choices, particularly over Spring Break because so many students go away and go on trips and do fun things. It can be a dangerous time, so we want to encourage them to make good choices."
Many students took a look at the obstacle course and thought it would be simple; however, after giving it a try ACU senior, Brian Escochea observed, "I missed the ducktape completely. I was all the way to the left and I still managed to hit a cone or two."
Joey Ellmore, senior at ACU stated, "I thought I could do at least semi decently at it, but it was a little bit harder than I expected."
When I first saw these students out here I thought they were just goofing around, but then I decided to put myself to the test, and quickly realized that the students were not playing around.
The goggles affected my ability to see and walk straight. Even after giving it a second try, I wound up with multiple violations for stepping on several cones.
The drunk driving statistics here in Abilene are pretty startling.
They exceed the statewide trend, as there are already 110 DWIs since the first of the year.
The Abilene Police Department anticipates that last year's total of 565 will be surpassed by over 650 by the end of this year.
As students head off to spring break, ACU is hoping that this obstacle course will serve as a reminder.

is there some sort of investment option for individuals to buy Talend 'shares'?
Hi Terry,
Best thing would be to post on the "Usage, operation" forum as this is the "announcements" forum: http://www.talendforge.org/forum/viewforum.php?id=2
Hi Guys,
I'm trying to disable an Oracle trigger in Talend ETL but it's not working. Here is the line that I placed in a tOracleRow_1 component:
"ALTER TRIGGER accountmcid DISABLE"
Can someone please assist me with this.
Talend announced in November 2010 that it had acquired Sopera, a leading provider of open source SOA and middleware platforms, creating a global leader in open source middleware solutions that ranks among the top five global pure play open source vendors.
Simultaneously, Talend completed a $34 million financing round led by Silver Lake Sumeru, a global leader in private investments in middle-market technology companies. Existing Talend investors Balderton Capital and IDInvest Partners (formerly AGF Private Equity) also participated in this round.
The combination of Talend and Sopera creates a global leader in open source middleware solutions, and uniquely positions it to take advantage of the synergies that exist between data management and application integration projects. IT organizations can now leverage a unified global middleware platform that costs far less than proprietary technologies, delivers greater functionality and is easier to deploy and manage. The unified platform will be optimized to seamlessly integrate on-premise data and applications with cloud-based deployments.
With the acquisition, Sopera is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Talend and will become Talends application integration division. Talend will retain Sopera employees and capitalize on their know-how, while investing to accelerate the global expansion of the newly formed division.
About Sopera
Sopera is an Open Source Integration Middleware vendor and supports customers to capture the value of Open Source Software by reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and vendor dependency. Soperas integration suite, Sopera ASF (Advanced Service Factory) is a sophisticated and complete Open Source platform that enables users to implement complex integration projects at low cost. The platform is based on the experience from ten years of developing and operating in a demanding enterprise environment. Customers of Sopera include Deutsche Post, Zurich Insurance and Landesbank Berlin.

Now I feel bad for liking it.
The Oscar-nominated film "Hurt Locker" is among this year's best picture contenders but it got skewered in a recent Washington Post column.
Even NBC's Brian Williams is taking shots at the story about an Iraq war bomb squad. The anchor, who's been in-country a bunch of times, blogged that "the movie's positive reviews could not have been 'written by anyone who had spent any time with U.S. armed forces in Iraq" he wrote, wondering why none of the soldiers in the movie dipped smokeless tobacco or said 'hoo-ah' -- "the universal term for hello, goodbye, understood, etc.'"
The Post says, "Many in the military say "Hurt Locker" is plagued by unforgivable inaccuracies that make the most critically acclaimed Iraq war film to date more a Hollywood fantasy than the searingly realistic rendition that civilians take it for. "
Even though the story isn't based on a real-life incident, a self-identified Army Airborne Ranger is quoted by the Post on Facebook as saying, "This movie is not based on a true story, but on a true war, a war in which I have seen my friends killed, a war in which I witnessed my ranger buddy get both his legs blown off. So for Hollywood to glorify this crap is a huge slap in the face to every soldier who's been on the front line."
A former sergeant who served in Iraq from 2003 to 2004 tells the Post he kept hoping that the movie's renegade main character would get "blown up throughout the entire movie. I wanted to see his poor teammates get another team leader, who was actually concerned about their safety."
The film's screenwriter, Mark Boal, was embedded in Iraq with an Explosive Ordinance Disposal team six years ago and tells the paper he feels a duty to "hew as close as possible to the truth."
So why the character flaws and continuity errors (like the fact that the uniforms in the film don't match the time frame)?
Boal told the Post he needed artistic license to tell a compelling and true story. As for the uni's, he says he wanted his audience to relate to the imagery they see on the news. "I definitely tried for dramatic effect to make artistic choices, but I hope I made them respectfully and carefully and with the goal of not making a training video or a documentary, but showing just how hellish this war is," he says. "I was also aware, by the way, that there are many wonderful documentaries on Iraq and many wonderful articles, which no one has seen. And quite frankly, I was hoping that people would see the film."
Not all vets are hatin', though. The Post found one who thinks"many veterans of bomb disposal units love the movie. James O'Neil is executive director of the EOD Memorial Foundation, a nonprofit that has benefited financially from the film and says, 'there's a lot of good representation of the intensity and the courage that's displayed by EOD techs. What it takes to find, identify and then render safe those [bombs] -- that's a story, and it's an incredible story.'"
I haven't been to Iraq and never neutered an IED, but I liked "Hurt Locker" and thought it put a face on the men and women doing unspeakably tough things in unbelievably hostile conditions. I'd also like to think most people are smart enough to know the difference between a Hollywood story and a CNN documentary. I'm guessing vets who've been there probably feel the way cops do when asked about "Law and Order", or when firefighters get asked for their take on "Rescue Me." We in radio bristle when people make cracks about "WKRP In Cincinnati"--sure, the stories were close to true but the actual nuts and bolts of the business were poorly represented.
Do you want a good story that makes a point, or do you want a cinematically articulate representation of a real-life event? If you're studying history, you seek the last. If you're selling tickets, or trying to win an Oscar, you go for the first.

Have you ever seen the "old guy" tooling down the highway in an expensive Euro road bike that cost quite a few thousand dollars and decked out his favorite team speed suit which shows much more than you would ever want to see on an old dude? I'm sure you have and you probably have seen the young kid, wearing his food service clothes on his way to work, riding an old beater Walmart bike blow right past the decked out geezer like he was standing still.
I may be "that guy".
Whatever sport or recreation I have played in, I have always liked to have good foorwear. Good running shoes have always been a must. For inline skating, nothing less than expensive custom-molded Bont carbon fiber boots did it for me.
Now that I am Olympic lifting, squatting and pressing, I had to make sure I got some good weightlifting shoes. My first pair were Do-Wins and added a little flair by getting them in blue suede. It could have, and probably should have stopped with that because, after all, I am a novice lifter and what I had was good enough.
Then the 2008 Olympics came and Val had heard that Nike was introducing a weightlifting shoe called the Romaleos, specifically made for three national teams, the Chinese, the Ukrainian and of course, the USA. She was able to get a pair of these one week after they were made available to the public and they became a terrific birthday present. While excited with my gift of great footwear, I was slightly self-conscious walking into the gym and training with all my heavier-lifting, stronger brothers, but I got over it quickly as the shoes were significantly better than my more-than adequate Do-Wins.
Christmas 2009 and lo and behold, I have yet another pair of top-of-the-line weightlifting shoes, the defacto standard, Adidas Adistar. As you saw in the picture above, they are beautiful…and obvious.
I have become "that guy" who can never come close to reaching the upper threshold of his equipment, but looks damn good doing it, and even that is debateable. (make sure you are watching the shoes, not my technique)!. There is nothing like lacing up your high-performance shoes to get ready for a great day of training or competition. Have fun with it but remember, there is some cute, young babe that will be rolling into your gym with Nike cross-trainers who will use your max effort set for a quick warm-up!

Mongolian Diptychs Tell of Profound Change
A Yin's reward for living in a village of gers has been the chance to record a vanishing way of life in China. Sim Chi Yin interviews him.
Share your thoughts.

To me, the loss of the traditional ways are a catastrophe. Not for reasons of nostalgia; but from a purely practical standpoint. Traditional peoples around the world had/have a huge amount to teach the "modern" world about, simply, how to live a life that can be fulfilling; without the endless frantic quest for "more".
We desperately need to know what they knew. Of course, the traditional herder already wanted "more"; more sheep, more horses, etc. But there was an end, and a limit, somewhere.
I keep hoping some traditional groups will find a way to keep their original wisdoms, while they also participate, in a limited and sane way, with modern "improvements."
Perhaps A Yin's work can help.
Question: Do many of the left bw pictures represent people in their finery and not their everyday clothes? Seems like it. The ones on the right seem to represent people in everyday clothes in China today.
Still the contrast between the contexts of the subjects in such a short span of time (2-4) years seem amazing and hard to believe. Perhaps the change was long in coming and planning.
When I was there in the 1990s I was in the mountains south of the Siberian border - where Genghis Khan came from . It was very traditional: no roads, electricity etc and few buildings, made even more so by the cut off of Russian gasoline supplies (the Russian motorcycles and trucks were put into storage and the half wild ponies and camels were piut back into use). Nevertheless my guide and translator in this primitive area was a nuclear physicist who had studied in Leningrad and London.
That was typical, a traditionally dressed family in a ger in the middle of nowhere, studying English from a Voice of America broadcast on a battery operated radio and photograph of a daughter and her German husband taken in Munich. Children were sent to provincial sub-capitals to boarding schools held in wooden cabins.
It is no surprise that herdsmen who sell wool would become part of the Chinese economy. Just as outsiders have come to extract minerals. Mongolia has been dependent on foreign economies since 1919. While it may seem cataclysmic to Mr Yin (as it would to anyone going back to their old neighborhood as it were), I suspect Mongolian culture will survive a few automobiles and roads and modern school buildings. I found Mongolians to have a strong sense of self and pride in their culture and history.
"What is this nonsense about winter and summer? "
Thank you for being so courteous to the opinion of the readers.
Whether there were "some before" photos taken in the summer is immaterial. We are talking about what was presented here.
A non-apple-to-apple comparison, such as winter to summer or monochrome to color, has it merits as photographic expression. However, that also disqualifies it as objective documentation.
On the photographic merit topic, it would have been better to include some pictures with different subjects; home interiors, people at place of work, etc.
Change by no means implies improvement.
I see changes happening all over the world so fast and feel that most places are loosing their culture and this man has dedicated his life to preserving what he can in one small area. Beautiful!!!!
I absolutely agree with the comments regarding the winter/summer, and monochrome/colour. While these techniques make the pieces more striking, it is a very poor documentation of the changes that may or may not have taken place in those 2 years. It makes me want to visit these people in the winter and see if they are still wearing their traditional fur coats. Which they most probably are.
The winter pictures probably taken around some holiday, like the Chinese new year, when people would wear traditional cloth for the celebration.

Calvin Coconut: Zoo Breath (eBook)
What's stinkier than dog breath? Hawaii's Calvin Coconut is on a mission to find out!
Hawaii boy Calvin Coconut is a fourth-grade whiz kid: he has convinced his mom to let him adopt a dog. But Mom says Streak smells bad. Especially her breath. To Calvin, Streak's stink is a good one, but he's worried. If he doesn't come up with a way to deal with Streak's zoo breath soon, Mom might make him give his dog back to the shelter. So when his teacher assigns the class a discovery project, Calvin teams up with his pal Julio to find a way to fix Streak's bad breath.
Zoo Breath is full of fun . . . and great stinks. Calvin Coconut's discoveries will delight readers who have grown to love him, as well as those new to this series by Graham Salisbury, with charming illustrations by Jacqueline Rogers.

Entry tags: | bashaw, bledsoe, herrington, kendrick, mystery monday |
One can probably be solved, and the other, most likely not.
I got a contact last week from a cousin several times removed who is researching our Herringtons. He and I share a great-grandfather, Jasper Monroe Herrington, but we are descended from different wives.
True to form after that series of emails, I leapt away from research on my elusive Duncans, and jumped right back on our Herringtons. (My Duncans, however, are brick wall lightweights when compared to my great-great grandmother Mary C Dunn.)
I think my cousin and I are the only ones researching our Herringtons (the ones in Arkansas who are descended from Madison Monroe Herrington) in a serious way, because there are *major* omissions and inaccuracies in a whole bunch of Ancestry family trees on them.
Like when and where did John Wesley S Herrington (son of Madison Monroe and Julia Ann Holt) die? A bunch of folks say in April 1967 in Camden, Benton Co., TN.
But that SSDI record does not convince me. Because I think John W S Herrington died in Hot Spring Co., AR, sometime between the 1910 census and the remarriage of his widow, Margaret Emaline "Maggie" Kendrick on 25 Apr 1912.
I think there is a grave, badly maintained, or not even marked, somewhere in Hot Spring County for him.
That mystery can probably be solved.
But then, there's Maggie.
John W S Herrington and Maggie Kendrick married on 21 May 1899 in Hot Spring County. He was 20 years old and she was 16. She was the daughter of James J Kendrick and Elizabeth Stanley.
By the 1910 census - taken in Hot Spring County - they had four children. That census record showed that mercifully, all the children born to Maggie Kendrick were still alive. Their youngest daughter, Opal Mae, was four months old at the time of the census.
Mrs. Maggie Herrington married Sandford Ramey Bashaw on 25 Apr 1912 in Hot Spring County. In the 1920 census in Hot Spring County, Opal Mae's surname - spelled Herington on the form - was crossed out and she had become a Bashaw.
She had four younger siblings in that census, including her four month old half-brother, Oscar Kendrick Bashaw.
I moved on to 1930 - and found Sandford Bashaw with three of his four children in Holtville, Imperial Co., CA, working on a fruit farm.
And no Maggie in sight.
The form said Sandford was married, but there was no wife in his home at the time of the census.
And I couldn't find Maggie Bashaw that year to save my life. So I went back to marriage records.
Mrs. Maggie Bashaw married James W Bledsoe on Christmas Eve in 1923, in Saline County, AR. Her youngest child, Oscar, was four years old.
At the 1930 census, Oscar was 10 and living with his dad in California. His mother was living in Benton, AR, making crates at a factory.
I wondered how Maggie bore it - being separated from all of her children. Two of her first four children - James Monroe and Opal Mae Herrington, lived to be adults. I can't find any death information about the middle Herrington children, Eliot and Gillis, who were born in 1904 and 1907, respectively.
All four of Maggie's children by Sandford Bashaw died in California between 1962 and 1992. Their Social Security numbers were issued to them by the State of California, before 1951. That sounds to me as if there was a tear in the family fabric that went beyond the divorce between Maggie and Sandford Bashaw.
Maggie Kendrick Herrington Bashaw Bledsoe died on 19 May 1966, and is buried with her final husband in Old Rosemont Cemetery in Benton, Saline Co., AR.

Return to the CAFAM Chinese School website
CAFAM's Chinese School will perform on Saturday, February 4, at Westbrook Middle School, probably at 11 a.m. Rehearsals will take place on Sunday afternoons in January at Maine State Ballet in Falmouth. There is a participation fee of $20 that helps cover the costs of costumes and rehearsals.
Please register by November 19, 2011. We cannot accept new participants after this date.
Please list each child who will be participating and make note where indicated of the size costume they need. Please use the chart below to determine the right size.
If your child would like to be part of the martial-arts demonstration, please indicate interest in the box that appears by his or her name.
Please bring your check — to CAFAM Chinese School, in the amount tallied at the bottom — and give it to your child's class parent coordinator at school. Or you can mail it to Linda Faber-Shields at 6 Bridle Court, Scarborough, ME 04074.
Children's costume sizes
We need your child's size so we can order their proper costume size. We place one bulk order direct from China, so we need your help to secure the correct information. Here are some tips:
1. Measure your child and compare the measurements to this chart to find their size. (Note: Use their largest measurement to ensure proper fit – we can shorten costumes, but we cannot make costumes larger if they are too small).
2. If you have last year's costume, take a look at the label and compare the size; this year's costume should not be a smaller size; in fact, it most likely should be a size or two larger this year.
3. For our smallest children, please note that there is no Size 3 in our costume sizing; go up a size if your child measures "in-between" sizes.
Chest | 22″ | 23″ | 24″ | 25″ | 26″ | 27″ | 29″ |
Waist | 21″ | 22″ | 23″ | 24″ | 25″ | 26″ | 28″ |
Hip | 23″ | 24″ | 25″ | 26″ | 27″ | 28″ | 31″ |
Height | 39″ | 43″ | 49″ | 53″ | 55″ | 59″ | 63″ |
Please bring your check—to CAFAM Chinese School, in the amount tallied here—and give it to your child's class parent coordinator at school. Or you can mail it to Linda Faber-Shields at 6 Bridle Court, Scarborough, ME 04074.

Safety. Functions such as electronic prescribing can dramatically reduce adverse drug reactions through alerts regarding drug-drug interactions and can eliminate the problem of typographical errors on written prescriptions.3 EMRs can more effectively bring important safety-related clinical information, such as allergy and adverse drug reaction history, to the attention of the provider in the context of care delivery through rules-based decision support functions. Templates for progress notes in EMR systems offer a framework for the creation of legible, complete, and clinically useful information in the medical record.
Performance improvement. Many practices have documented that appropriate use of technology has led to more efficient workflow.4 HIT resources such as patient portals (which allow patients to transmit clinical history forms and rating scales to, and enable secure messaging with, the provider or office) can improve the patient experience and facilitate the incorporation of routine structured assessments of symptom severity into clinical practice. EMR systems may allow providers to develop patient registries to track outcomes and processes of patient care for groups of patients with similar diagnoses to improve the quality of care.
Although concerns about the confidentiality and security of psychiatric information in EMR systems are quite warranted, it can be argued that electronic systems have more robust capacity to protect sensitive clinical information than do paper records.5 If rigorously deployed, technological features such as data encryption, electronic audit trails, automated off-site backup functions, and user access controls not only can prevent unauthorized access to information but also can ensure that critical data are not accidentally lost or destroyed. (Editor's note: please see the Special Report article "New Risks to Confidentiality in the Modern Era" by Dunne and colleagues for more on this topic.)
Choosing the right technology for your practice
With hundreds of HIT products on the market today, identifying the right products for a practice's needs can be a daunting task. It is good to remember that the "perfect" HIT product simply does not exist, and every product will have its own strengths and weaknesses in the context of the individual practice's needs. Before getting started with the process of "shopping around" for technology, it is a good idea to understand some of the basic functions of these products.
Products range from all-inclusive "package systems" to "modular pieces" with a single function. While you may be tempted to find a product that meets every one of your needs, many have found that using multiple components to meet fewer needs is also effective. When using modular products, keep in mind that the ability of these products to interface with one another is crucial to a well-run system.
Practice management. Functions such as scheduling, registration, billing, and patient accounts can be found in many stand-alone as well as package products. Some products add the ability to use a computer in the waiting room to gather information from the patient for use during the clinical session. Other functions can include tracking utilization review/insurance information and managing informed consent documents.
Communication with patients. Patient portals offer secure methods to allow patients to exchange information with their provider. This is akin to online banking or airline reservations. This evolving field of HIT can enable patients to read or download selected elements of their medical record, such as test reports and evaluation summaries; to request and/or schedule appointments; to personally submit information to the medical record, such as history; to complete assessment measures; and to exchange messages with their provider.
Clinical documentation. This is the "meat and potatoes" of most EMR products. These functions facilitate documentation of the clinical aspects of a practice. Most products offer some form of customizability in the templates used for documentation. Providers should find a level and mechanism of customization that fits their needs.
Some psychiatric products offer the functionality to handle security and access psychotherapy notes uniquely. Integration of rating scales and screens into clinical documentation is another potential feature. Many products offer the generation and maintenance of a Problem/Diagnosis list as a function of clinical documentation. Scanning of paper documents can also offer a bridge between traditional "paper-based" practices and the "paperless" office.
Medication management. Various EMR solutions integrate tools to manage medications. Potential features include support for formularies, drug interaction/allergy checking, FDA indication monitoring, and black box alerts. The term "electronic prescribing" refers to the electronic transmission of a prescription order to a pharmacy. This is distinguished from the use of a computer to print a prescription document or to fax an electronic version of that document to a pharmacy.

He Said I Can/It Hurts To Be Alone
7-inch (Item 589119) Daptone, 2011 — Condition: New Copy
Slinky, funky soul from the world famous Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings – plus a great cover on the flip! "He Said I Can" is a killer from the I Learned The Hard Way sessions – a rawer, funkier number that reminds a bit more some the earlier material from the group – with really great organ groove driving it along, along with Sharon's always passionate voice. A great one that they play live a whole lot – so we're plenty pleased to have such a great recording on 45! The flip is a tender, beautiful soulful cover of "It Hearts To Be Alone" – originally recorded by The Wailers way back in '64, and done in a timeless soul mode by the Daptone team. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

- Thursday, May 23, 6:26 PM New Chesapeake Energy (CHK) CEO Doug Lawler will make more than $22M in 2013 - a cash salary of $1.25M plus a signing bonus, stock awards and other perks - according to an SEC filing. Predecessor Aubrey McClendon's 2012 compensation package totaled $16.9M, with a $975K cash salary. 10 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, May 22, 8:21 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) +1.7% premarket as Susquehanna upgrades the stock to Positive from Neutral, believing CHK should get a boost from both higher oil and gas prices and its new CEO. The firm boosts its valuations for CHK's oil and gas reserves, saying investors have become more comfortable with higher prices; asset sales so far have been of "mixed quality." Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas, On the Move]
- Monday, May 20, 12:40 PM Wall Street cheers Chesapeake's (CHK +4%) appointment of Doug Lawler as CEO as a vote of confidence in CHK after building a strong reputation at Anadarko (APC). While hopeful the move will improve capital discipline and allocation decisions, Tudor Pickering cautions it will be a steep wall to climb "given the balance sheet leverage and need to materially sell assets into a weak [acquisitions] market." 3 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Monday, May 20, 5:15 AM Directors at Chesapeake Energy (CHK) recruit Anadarko (APC) senior VP of international and deep-water operations Robert Douglas Lawler to succeed Aubrey McClendon as CEO, WSJ says. Lawler, a seasoned industry veteran, will join CHK on June 17 and says he "looks forward to generating value for shareholders in the years ahead." Besides plugging a multi-billion dollar gap between the company's spending and cash flow, Lawler's greatest challenge might be dealing with McClendon, whose contractual well investment rights mean he will likely be a part of the picture at CHK even if he isn't at the helm. 4 Comments [Energy, Top Stories]
- Thursday, May 16, 5:12 PM Bruce Berkowitz, whose Fairholme hedge fund looks for long-term value and has low turnover, must feel pretty confident about how things will shake out at Chesapeake (CHK), a rare energy holding. He took Q1's largest new position in the natural gas producer, worth more than $276M; the fund now owns a 2% stake in CHK after buying 13.4M shares. (13F) 2 Comments [Energy]
- Thursday, May 16, 3:45 PM Oil production from Ohio's Utica shale was lower in 2012 than first anticipated but will be "incidental" to gas output in much of the play, Ohio regulators say. Oil production averaged 1,742 bbl/day, while gas totaled 35M cf/day. Chesapeake (CHK) was by far the largest producer, with total 2012 output of 10B cf of gas, followed by Hess (HES) and Gulfport (GPOR); Devon Energy (DVN) produced no gas from its five wells. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Thursday, May 16, 10:47 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK -2.6%) is downgraded to Neutral from Overweight at J.P. Morgan, which cites valuation, a lack of visible catalysts and a "perpetual funding gap" that could total $9.3B by 2015. The firm believes planned asset sales will help CHK fund its cash outspend in 2013 but will need to take on debt in 2014-15. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas, On the Move]
- Monday, May 13, 8:53 AM BNY Mellon (BK) is appealing last week's ruling allowing Chesapeake Energy (CHK) to proceed with redeeming $1.3B in bonds six years early and save CHK ~$100M in interest payments through lower rates. In court hearings before the trial, neither party could explain to the judge how an appeal might work, since the early redemption has already been put in motion and is scheduled to be executed today. 2 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, May 8, 4:25 PM Mark West Energy (MWE) agrees to acquire Anadarko Basin Granite Wash midstream assets from Chesapeake Energy (CHK) for $245M. In conjunction with the acquisition, MWE has executed long-term, fee-based agreements with CHK for gas gathering, compression, treating and processing services. Comment! [Energy]
- Wednesday, May 8, 9:44 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK +0.9%) wins its trial over its early call of $1.3B in bonds after a judge ruled against the notes' trustee, Bank of New York Mellon (BK). CHK sued BNY Mellon in March after the bank challenged its bid to redeem the 6.775% notes six years early and refinance the debt, a plan that will save CHK ~$100M in interest payments because of lower rates. Comment! [Energy]
- Friday, May 3, 4:58 PM Top shareholder Southeastern Asset Management wields its influence at Chesapeake (CHK), placing Thomas Ryan, CEO of Service Corp. International (SCI), on the energy company's board. Director Louis Simpson is resigning after serving since 2011. Ryan will stand for election at the June 14 board meeting. 13 Comments [Energy]
- Friday, May 3, 10:19 AM EQT Corp. (EQT +1.9%) agrees to buy ~99K net acres in western Pennsylvania and 10 horizontal Marcellus wells from Chesapeake Energy (CHK +1%) for ~$113M, marking CHK's third announced asset sale this week. Three of the 10 wells are producing, EQT says the remaining seven will be turned in line by year-end 2013, adding ~1B cfe of sales volume. Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 1, 12:38 PM The ink was barely dry on Chesapeake's (CHK -2.1%) better-than-expected earnings report before worries resurface about its liquidity position and slow progress on its asset-sale program. In its conference call, CHK said its 2013 funding gap stands at $3.5B, barely halfway through its $7B asset-sale target. Concerns are exacerbated by supposedly receiving low prices for the assets. 2 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 1, 8:15 AM SemGroup (SEMG) agrees to acquire Mississippi Lime midstream assets from Chesapeake Energy (CHK) for $300M. SEMG says the deal will lift its total processing capacity to 600M cf/day in Oklahoma and with ~655K net acre dedications within the core of the Mississippi Lime play. Completion of two cryogenic processing plants will require ~$125M in capex. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, May 1, 7:50 AM More on Chesapeake's (CHK) Q1 results: Total production rose to 4B cfe/day, +9% Y/Y. Says it has closed or signed ~$2B of asset sales YTD, expects to close previously announced Mississippi Lime JV transaction with Sinopec before end of Q2 and to sign agreements selling northern Eagle Ford assets in Q2. Projects FY 2013 production expenses of $0.85-$0.90/mcfe for the year, down $0.05 vs. prior guidance. Shares +3.9% premarket. Comment! [Energy, Earnings, On the Move]
