Man's Christmas Display Has 75,000 Lights
December 17, 2012 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
MORRISTOWN, N.J., (UPI) – A New Jersey man who has been creating elaborate Christmas displays for 28 years said this year's display outside his home includes 75,000 lights.
Mike Antreassian, 70, of Rockaway Township in Morris County, said people have already come to see his lights from across the state and he is expecting hundreds more in coming days, NJ.com reported Monday.
Antreassian said his display involves 75,000 bulbs powered by 35,000 watts of electricity.
The homeowner said volunteers come to his home to play Santa for visiting children and the display involves a wooden desk where children can write their letters to the jolly old elf.

Politics of United States Political parties Elections |
The Constitution Party is a right-wing[1] and theocratic[2] political party in the United States.[3][4][5] The party asserts that the US is a Christian nation founded on the Bible and that US jurisprudence should be restored to what the party claims is its "Biblical foundations".[6] The Constitution Party advocates a platform which reflects the Party's understanding of the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States, the Bible, and the Bill of Rights.
The party was founded as the U.S. Taxpayers' Party by Howard Philips in 1991.[7] Phillips was the party's candidate in the 1992, 1996 and 2000 presidential elections. The party's official name was changed to The Constitution Party in 1999; however, some state affiliate parties are known under different names. The party's platform is predicated on the party's understanding of the original intent of the nation's founding documents.[8] The party absorbed the American Independent Party, originally founded for George Wallace's 1968 presidential campaign. The Constitution Party receives substantial support from Christian Right organizations, and came in second place in the 2010 Colorado gubernatorial election. As of January 2014, the party had not won any legislative or executive branch races at either the national or state level.
Affiliated organizations[edit]
A number of conservative parties (some formally affiliated with or descended from the American Independent Party, some not) calling themselves "Constitution Party" have existed in the United States. In 1952-1953, Upton Close, Robert R. McCormick and other supporters of Joseph McCarthy discussed the formation of a party sometimes called the "Constitution Party", sometimes the "American Party", apparently in support of McCarthy's ambitions to reach the White House. White supremacist, Christian Identity theorist and Posse Comitatus founder William Potter Gale was California "state chairman of the Constitution Party" in 1957.;[9] and their candidate for Governor of California in 1958.[10] The Constitution Party of Wisconsin, for example, was an affiliate of the American Independent Party which ran candidates in the 1980-1984 elections, and appointed James Wickstrom and others as representatives to the National Committee. The present-day Constitution Party of Wisconsin was begun in 1991 as a unit of the U.S. Taxpayers Party,[11] and does not discuss the connection (or lack thereof) between the two organizations, which share a number of ideological positions.
The Michigan affiliate has kept the "U.S. Taxpayers Party" name in order to retain ballot status. This branch, chaired by William Mohr,[12] was founded in 1992. The party is one of six 'ballot-qualified' parties in Michigan.[13] The ballot line on which it ran in its initial election in 1992 was that of the Tisch Independent Citizens' Party.
In Connecticut, the party affiliate is the "Concerned Citizens Party;" in Nebraska the affiliate changed its name from "The Nebraska Party" to "The Nebraska Independent Party"[14] and back to "Nebraska Party" again.
The Constitution Party of Alabama (CPAL) is another affiliate party.[15] This arm, headed by Joshua Cassity, supports strict adherence to the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and adds the Alabama Constitution to the mix.[16]
Merge reports[edit]
Reports that the Constitution Party discussed a merger[17] between several third parties such as the Reform Party, Independent American Party, American Independent Party, and the America First Party have been refuted by other accounts of the events.[18] Nevertheless, all of the aforementioned parties except for the Reform Party endorsed the Constitution Party's Michael Peroutka as their presidential candidate in 2004.
Notable people[edit]
Pat Buchanan threatened in 1996 to run as the U.S. Taxpayers Party candidate if Bob Dole chose a pro-choice running mate. Dole later chose pro-life Jack Kemp and received Buchanan's endorsement. Buchanan's 2000 Reform Party running mate Ezola B. Foster switched her membership to the Constitution Party in 2002. Buchanan stated on the September 7, 2004 edition of Hardball with Chris Matthews, "There is a chance I would vote for [Michael] Peroutka."[19] However, he later penned an endorsement of President George W. Bush in the pages of The American Conservative.[20]
U.S. senator Bob Smith announced his switch from Republican to the U.S. Taxpayers Party in 1999 to seek its 2000 presidential nomination. Smith later charged that anti-New World Order ideologues within the party resisted his candidacy due to his Roman Catholicism. He left the party after one month and continued his campaign as a non-partisan independent but ceased the campaign soon thereafter and returned to the Republican party to assume a Senate committee chairmanship. In 2008, he began writing editorials on the Constitution Party's web page, fueling speculation that he would seek its presidential nomination again, although he had endorsed Rep. Duncan Hunter for the Republican nomination. He requested that his name be withheld from consideration in a March 2008 letter to CP supporters.
Minuteman Project co-founder Jim Gilchrist ran for Congress with the American Independent Party in 2005, but has since rejoined the Republicans.[21]
Author and WorldNetDaily columnist Jerome Corsi launched a brief campaign for the 2008 nomination but in July 2007 decided to return to writing.[22] Former Reagan Administration official and devout Catholic activist Alan Keyes had actively sought the Constitution nod after ending a bid for the GOP nomination.[23]
The party has also attracted notables in the anti-abortion movement such as Dr. Gregory Thompson,[24] Lon Mabon,[25] Paul deParrie, and Missionaries to the Preborn leader Pastor Matthew Trewhella.[26] However, many such notables were involved in the below-mentioned disaffiliation efforts over abortion, and it remains unclear what effect the movement has upon the current reorganized rump affiliates.
A 2008 candidate for the Republican nomination, Representative Ron Paul (R-Texas), endorsed several third party candidates shortly after bowing out of the race. Ultimately, he would go on to endorse 2008 Constitution Party candidate Chuck Baldwin.[27] The unaffiliated Constitution Party of Montana replaced Baldwin with Paul for president and Michael Peroutka for vice president. Paul requested that Montana remove his name from the ballot, but the Secretary of State of Montana denied his request, stating that the request was sent too late.[28]
In 2010, former Republican Congressman Tom Tancredo ran for governor of Colorado as a Constitutionalist. He received 36.8% of the vote finishing in 2nd place. Despite losing the election, Tancredo managed to secure major party status for the Constitution Party in Colorado, as that state requires a party to surpass 10% in a gubernatorial election to qualify for such status.[29]
In 2006, Rick Jore of Montana became the first Constitution Party candidate elected to a state-level office.[30][dead link][31][dead link]
2012 candidates[edit]
Former Republican Representative Virgil Goode (VA-5) was nominated at the convention in Nashville, Tennessee on April 22, 2012.[32] Goode received 203 votes; 202 were required for a majority. Darrell Castle of Tennessee, national vice chairman of the Constitution Party, came in second with 120 votes. Other candidates who received votes were Robby Wells from North Carolina, former football coach at Savannah State University; Dr. Laurie Roth of Washington state, who has a radio talk-show program; and registered nurse Susan Ducey of Kansas.[33]
The preamble of the Constitution Party platform "gratefully acknowledges the blessing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as Creator, Preserver and Ruler of the Universe and of these United States,"[34] and supports the Constitutional provision in Article VI, Section 3 that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States" and calls on all those who love liberty and value their inherent rights to join with them in the pursuit of their goals.
Fiscal policy[edit]
The Constitution Party supports reducing the role of the United States federal government through cutting bureaucratic regulation, reducing spending, and replacing the income tax with a tariff-based revenue system supplemented by excise taxes. The party also takes the position that the "imposition […] of Federal income, payroll, and estate taxes […] is an unconstitutional Federal assumption of direct taxing authority." [35]
Social Security phase-out[edit]
The Constitution Party calls for the eventual end of social security.[36]
Foreign policy[edit]
The Constitution Party favors a non-interventionist foreign policy. It advocates reduction and eventual elimination of the role the United States plays in multinational and international organizations such as the United Nations, and favors withdrawal of the United States from most current treaties, such as North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), and the World Trade Organization. The party takes mercantilist positions in supporting protectionist policies on international trade.
The party also believes in exercising a tariff system to counteract the U.S.' increasingly negative balance of trade.[37] The tariff system would levy additional import costs, the amount of which would vary proportionally with how much less the exporting country's production costs are compared to that of U.S. companies.
Immigration policy[edit]
The party opposes illegal immigration and also seeks stricter controls on legal immigration. It demands that the federal government restore immigration policies based on the policy that potential immigrants will be disqualified from admission to the United States on the grounds of ill health, criminality, low morals, or financial dependence, believing that they would impose an improper burden on the United States, any state, and citizens of the United States. The party has stated a long term goal of a moratorium on future immigration, exempting extreme cases where it would be necessary.[38]
Additionally, it opposes welfare subsidies and other taxpayer-supported benefits to illegal immigrants, rejecting also the practice of bestowing U.S. citizenship on children born to illegal immigrant parents while in this country (jus soli). It also rejects any extension of amnesty to illegal immigrants. The Constitution Party calls for the use of U.S. troops to protect the states against an influx of illegal immigrants.
Social policy[edit]
The party opposes euthanasia and abortion, the latter including in cases of rape and incest.[39]
The party supports the ability of states to administer a death penalty:[40]
Our support of a State's option to impose the death penalty is limited to those who have been convicted of capital crimes. This is consistent with protecting innocent life because the death penalty would only be applied to those who have proven to be a threat to innocent life.
The party opposes same-sex marriage, and believes state and local governments have the right to criminalize "offensive sexual behavior".[41] The party further opposes pornography, believing it to be, at worst, "a destructive element of society resulting in significant and real emotional, physical, spiritual and financial costs to individuals, families and communities," distinguishable from the US citizen's "cherished First Amendment right to free speech." While expressing its belief in the individual responsibility of citizens and corporations, the party maintains that government plays a "vital role" in establishing and maintaining the highest level of decency in America's community standards.[42] The party opposes all government sponsorship, involvement in, or promotion of gambling,[43] and in keeping with the spirit of Article 1 Section 8 and Amendment 10, opposes federal anti-drug laws while maintaining that the federal government may have a role in limiting the import of drugs.[44]
The party supports the right to bear arms in accordance with the Second Amendment. The party believes that any attempt to make laws barring the second amendment are unconstitutional. It has taken a stand against the Patriot Act.
The Constitution Party believes that charitable giving is most effective when conducted by private parties. Because the authority to administer charity has not been granted to the government in the Constitution, the party maintains that the government has no business being involved in such endeavors.[45] The party opposes federal restrictions on, or subsidization of, medical treatments.[46]
The party supports English as the official language for all governmental business, opposes bilingual ballots, and insists that those who wish to take part in the electoral process and governance of the U.S. be required to read and comprehend basic English as a precondition of citizenship.[38] The party also opposes the federal Voting Rights Act.
In 2009, the Southern Poverty Law Center described the party as a "'Patriot' Group," described as a group or groups that "advocate or adhere to extreme anti-government doctrines."[47]
The party supports the repeal of the Sixteenth Amendment, which allows Congress to tax income, and the Seventeenth Amendment, which requires the direct (popular) election of Senators.[48] The party holds that each state's membership in the Union is voluntary.[49] This stance is known as the Compact theory.
State disaffiliations[edit]
In early 2006, Christopher H. Hansen, the gubernatorial candidate of Independent American Party of Nevada (the Constitution Party state affiliate in Nevada), and candidates in Colorado and Idaho, publicly expressed support for accepting abortions in the cases of rape, incest, and for those performed to save the life of the mother, which were contrary to the official Nevada platform.[citation needed] At the party's April 2008 national convention in Tampa, Florida, the assembly voted not to disaffiliate Nevada, citing that affiliate's official position on the issue and the national party's policy against dictating the internal affairs (such as electing leaders) of any affiliate. They also made it more difficult to introduce a disaffiliation resolution. However, the Oregon and Montana affiliates voluntarily disaffiliated from the party later that year.
Subsequent changes in affiliation[edit]
As of January 2013, Oregon has re-affiliated with the national party. The Constitution Party of Montana re-affiliated with the national party in 2011.[citation needed] According to the party website, as of November 2012, the Alaskan Independence Party is also no longer an affiliate.
Nebraska Party[edit]
The Nebraska state affiliate of the Constitution Party[50] is called the "Nebraska Party," and is chaired by Ben Grindstaff and headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska.[51] The party has had candidates for state-wide offices placed on ballots from 2002 to 2008. The stated mission of the Nebraska Party is:
...to restore economic prosperity to all Nebraskans, to restore the Christian Principles of our Forefathers, and to get the Government back in the hands of the people. The Nebraska Party is founded on the principles of the Democrat-Republican Party, which was established in the early 1800s by Thomas Jefferson. The Democrat-Republican Party, now the Nebraska Party, represents the people, the working people (labor), family farmers, small business and, of course, our senior citizens.

Just The Most Beautiful Deck Of Cards We've Ever Seen
It all began as a "purely creative exercise." "My freelance work had dried up, and I needed to keep myself busy. I wasn't trying to capture the interest of a certain market. I simply wanted to try my hand at branding something that had a lot of components, that had a deep heritage and that I felt had practical use."
Click to enlarge.
That's Tyler Deep. Not so long ago, he put a $15 deck of cards up on Kickstarter, hoping to accrue the $6,000 to send them into production. What happened instead was one of those dreams Kickstarter is made of–4,000 backers showed up out of nowhere, pledging $146,000 to support the project. "I never thought people would care this much. . .not in a 100 years," he says today. "I am floating in a sea of amazement."
It wasn't just any old deck of cards, of course. With a creative-sabbatical approach, Deep crafted his deck from top to bottom, designing every aspect, from the illustrations of royalty to his own font-like riff on the traditional hearts, spades, clubs, and diamonds. The effect is borderline antique without feeling retro, like a one-off deck built for a high-stakes poker game in some Hollywood period piece.
Now in their second printing, this edition of cards will feature metallic gold backs, and they'll reside in a bold red box that's printed with gold foil highlights. Red and gold–it's an incestuous duo of royal opulence that will make your imported clay poker chips look cheap. And should you prefer to look more Wayne than Lannister, the deck will also be available in black.

The article Capital Ratios as Predictors of Bank Failure appears in the latest issue of the New York Feds Economic Policy Review.
In a study of ratios designed to assess capital adequacy, authors Arturo Estrella, Sangkyun Park, and Stavros Peristiani find that even simple ratios can be informative and useful in predicting bank failures. The study comes as the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision is engaged in an effort to refine the 1988 Basel Accord.
Estrella, Park, and Peristiani examine the effectiveness of three capital ratios in forecasting bank failure over different time frames. The risk-weighted ratio--the most complex of the three--compares a banks capital with its risk-weighted assets, as defined in the Basel Accord.
The leverage ratio and the gross revenue ratio are simpler to compute: the first compares capital with total assets and the second with total interest and noninterest income. The authors ask whether each ratio is useful for bank regulation and whether it is significantly related to subsequent bank failure.
Their analysis shows that:
- Simple leverage and gross revenue ratios perform as well as the more complex risk-weighted ratio in predicting bank failure over one- or two-year horizons.
- Risk-weighted measures prove more accurate in forecasting failure over longer horizons.
- Simple ratios are less costly to implement and could supplement more sohisticated measures by providing a timely signal of the need for supervisory action.
- Bank regulators may find a useful role for the simple ratios in the design of regulatory capital frameworks, particularly as indicators of the need for prompt supervisory action.
Arturo Estrella is a senior vice president, Sangkyun Park an economist, and Stavros Peristiani a research officer at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Dec. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Cattle futures extended a rally to an all-time high for the third straight session on the outlook for tightening supplies of beef and rising demand.
U.S. beef production in 2014 may slump to 24.205 billion pounds (10.98 million metric tons), the lowest since 1993, the Department of Agriculture has projected. Live steers averaged 1,395 pounds last week, down 2.4 percent from a week earlier, government data show. Wholesale-beef prices rose 1.4 percent yesterday, the biggest jump since Oct. 17, USDA data show.
"The number one reason that we're extending the rally on the cattle market is our cattle supplies are going to be down," Don Roose, the president of U.S. Commodities Inc. in West Des Moines, Iowa, said in a telephone interview. "And the steer weights and heifer weights have been down."
Cattle futures for February delivery rose 0.1 percent to $1.35225 a pound at 12:36 a.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, after reaching $1.356, the highest ever for a most- active contract. Prices touched records yesterday and on Dec. 27.
Futures are on pace for a fifth straight annual gain, the longest winning streak since Chicago trading began in 1964.
Feeder-cattle futures for March settlement declined 0.1 percent to $1.677 a pound. Hog futures for February settlement climbed 0.8 percent to 85.625 cents a pound in Chicago. Prices slumped 0.9 percent this year through yesterday, heading for the first annual decline since 2007.

"Lennox rip-off"
To save the company the price of a $20 shut off valve it cost me over $850 in repair bills. You can bet I will never deal with Lennox again.

"Lennox all-in-one PHK10, 13 seer, R410-A"
Our Lennox is 15 months old. We were happy last summer with the 6 month old performance. We did notice however an increase in electric bills. This is the 2nd time we have run the A/C and it iced over and stopped cooling. Thermal expansion valve went bad. Part still under warranty ($191.00). But the $850.00 that Donelson A/C in Nashville wanted for labor and r410-a is absurd considering we gave them nearly $6,000.00 just 15 months ago. So not only does Lennox have quality control issues, but this Lennox dealer is taking advantage of customers.

While it worked ok for most of the time owned, the fact that it died after just 12 years when it cost $7,000 works out to $600 / year to own this system. There was no reduction in heating or cooling cost. Our power company offers a rebate of $500 to install heat pumps. The economics don't work out.

"This unit a piece of junk..."
This unit was installed in June of '07. We've had nothing but problems since day 1. Had to have a service tech out at least 8 times to fix various problems. How is it that when your cooling unit runs constantly yet the temp in your house continues to go up???? Even had to have the owner of the dealership to visit and he assured me that this unit was top of the line. I had serious doubts. Will calling him tomorrow again...I'm sorry I even called them. Don�t buy a Lennox !!!

"lennox has no clue"
When we moved in our home it came with a Lennox unit. Two days after we were here we began having problems with it. The unit leaks and floods our hardwood floors, the entire house is full of dust, we've replaced 2,000 dollars worth of parts in the past year alone. Total piece of junk.

"My Lennox requires constant repairs"
In the fall of 2004, I purchased a house that had a 2001 top-of-the-line Lennox HVAC system installed. At the time of the home inspection, no problems were noted with the heating or cooling however my heating bills were high all winter. Every year I've had to pay for some sort of repair to get the unit to work. We've had the compressor replaced, the defrost board replaced, problems with fuses blowing, issues with intermittent cooling, problems with freon flowing through the system. Some work was done under warranty but the labor comes out of pocket (one service call was over $600). The weather is getting warm now & when I tried to turn on the AC guess what? It doesn't work. The fan blows warm air & the compressor doesn't come on. Last year I was told there may be a problem with the valve that controls the flow of freon and if it needs to be replaced the part is about $500. Someone is supposed to come out on Wednesday to diagnose the unit. In my opinion an HVAC system should not require yearly repairs after 4 years of use -- preventative maintenance is one thing but these are repairs that are averaging $500 per year. At this point, I am seriously considering replacing the Lennox unit with a different brand system. I'd never recommend Lennox to anyone.

Three out of three Lennox I have died in a one year time span. One system never worked well and in the end lost over 50% of capacity. It never produced rated cooling even after it was replaced during the first year. The second unit saw seldom use because it served an seldom used spare inlaw apartment. That second one lost the scroll compressor during cold weather because the Lennox HP22 gear doesn't use a suction accumulator, so compressor slugging killed it. The compressor spins, but there is no head pressure. That one, the bottom pan rotted out too because it has no drain holes. Water just pooled inside it. Now the third out of three had the compressor grind apart internally. It made a grinding noise, then locked the rotor and blew the fuse. These Lennox units have a minimum of protection devices. They have no loss of charge switch and no overpressure switch. Leak? The third one leaked for sure, because I recovered 5 lbs 4 oz of R22 from a system that should hold three pounds more than that. All three of these units ice over during freezing rain. They have no protection devices, so they sit there grinding the compressor to bits unless you see what is happening and turn it off. No one will service this gear. HVAC vendors only want to replace the entire system even though the air handler is okay. This junk has custom air handler dimensions that don't match other gear. So the equipment cannot be serviced and it can't be replaced without doing sheet metal ductwork all over. I wouldn't buy Lennox again, nor any of their sister brands.

I replaced a 20 year old York heat pump with the Lennox unit. I have had problems at least once a year. The compressor went out under warranty but it cost $400 labor to replace it. Now the compressor is out again.

Jenkins is the executive director of the West Virginia State Medical Association. Born in Huntington, he graduated from the University of Florida and the Cumberland School of Law.
In the Senate, he is chairman of the Pension Committee and vice chairman of the Health and Human Resources Committee. He also serves on the judiciary; energy, industry and mining; banking and insurance; government organizations; and military committees.
He first joined the Legislature in 1994 as a delegate. He eventually chaired the House Pension Committee, serving in the House until 2000. In 2000, Jenkins made an unsuccessful bid for the state Supreme Court, coming in fourth out of four candidates in the Democratic primary.
In 2002, he successfully defeated Republican challenger Tom Scott for his current seat. In 2010, he faced challengers only in the primary.
Jenkins received more than twice the votes of his closest Democrat challenger and more than two-thirds of all votes cast in the primary, according to data on the secretary of state's website.
During his campaigns, Jenkins was considered a conservative Democrat and consistently received support from the business community. In his first race for state Senate, labor groups favored his opponent while business backed Jenkins, a switch from typical expectations for Democrat and Republican candidates.
He's a favorite of the state Chamber of Commerce, where he once worked as an attorney, according to Daily Mail archives.
The National Republican Congressional Committee announced earlier this year that Rahall is one of seven Democrat House members they're trying desperately to oust. One potential candidate creating some buzz, successful car salesman and state Sen. Bill Cole of Mercer County, recently said he would not run.
This would be the second time in the last three election cycles where a long-time Democrat jumps to the GOP to battle Rahall. In 2010, former Supreme Court justice Elliot "Spike" Maynard hopped the political fence and defeated Republican state Delegate Marty Gearheart of Mercer County to win the nomination.
Rahall beat Maynard, earning 56 percent of the vote.
Jenkins' potential decision to switch parties creates an interesting situation in the Senate.
His current four-year term is up in 2014. However, Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin is bound by law to appoint a Republican to replace him, should Jenkins switch parties before then and leave the Senate to focus on his campaign.
Jenkins has not yet filed for re-election. No one else has filed in that race, either.

If a bill that Rep. Bill Owens is supporting were already law, he'd have never received his $174,000 annual pay in his more than two-year tenure in office.
The "No Budget, No Pay" bill (h/t Chris Morris at the ADE) would take away the pay of lawmakers if a budget wasn't passed. The last time a budget was passed was in April of 2009, and Mr. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, won his seat in November 2009.
Government-by-continuing resolution has reigned ever since.
"He believes it will motivate both parties to work together and pass an annual fiscally responsible budget," Owens spokesman Sean Magers told me in an electronic message.
While its chances are decent in the Republican House, the chances of it passing the Senate are about as good as the chances of a budget passing the Senate these past two-plus years.

How to deauthorize Google Play Music devices
Google allows you to use the Google Play Music service on up to 10 different devices with your account. If you've reached your device limit and want to add a new device, you'll need to deauthorize an old one before being allowed to add another device.
There are two ways to deauthorize devices from your account: using a Web browser or through the Google Play Music Android app. The device management feature was just added to the Android app this week, so we'll start there.

The 2010 U.S. Census will count all U.S. residents, citizens and non-citizens alike. In March 2010, census forms will be delivered to every residence in the United States and all respondents need to fill in the form to account for everyone living at that address as of April 1, 2010. The form will include a prepaid envelope so you can mail it back as soon as possible.
The 2010 Census will be one of the shortest and simplest in U.S. history. It requires less personal information than a typical credit card application. It will ask just 10 basic questions including name, sex, age and date of birth, Hispanic origin, race, household relationship and if you own or rent your home.
Why is information like this important? In addition to determining Ohio's representation in the U.S. House of Representatives over the next decade, many federal programs that provide services to Ohio's seniors, including home delivered meals, long-term care ombudsman programs and senior employment programs, use census data to determine how much funding Ohio will receive. It is vital that we have an accurate count of our residents to ensure we can continue to meet the needs of our seniors.
If you do not complete and return your census form, you can expect a knock on your door in May or June. U.S. Census Bureau employees will visit residences that do not return a form. The best way to protect your personal information and privacy is to complete your census form and return it promptly.
The first phase of the 2010 U.S. Census is under way as Census workers verify the addresses of households across the country. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises people to be cooperative, but cautious, so as not to become a victim of fraud or identity theft. How can you tell the difference between a U.S. Census worker and a con artist? The BBB offers the following advice:
Any personal data collected is kept confidential. By law, the Census Bureau cannot share personally identifiable information with anyone or any other government agency. Penalties for any employee who shares that information are severe - up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
If you have more than one residence, you will receive Census forms at all addresses. Snowbirds, Ohioans who spend part of the year in another state, should list their Ohio residence as their permanent household if they spend the majority of the year here.
If you do not receive a census form by April 1, call the Telephone Questionnaire Assistance center at 1-866-872-6868 from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week through July 30, 2010. For more information about the 2010 Census, visit www.census.ohio.gov/.
Twice each month, the Ohio Department of Aging delivers Aging Issues, a column from Director Barbara E. Riley that examines topics of interest to older Ohioans, their family members and others who care for and serve them. Aging Issues is intended for personal use as well as re-publication in newspapers, newsletters and other publications with older adults as a target audience.

DukeMed Magazine
Published: June 27, 2011
Updated: June 27, 2011
From the prime minister of Kazakhstan to representatives from Harvard, more than 100 delegations from all over the world have visited Duke-NUS to learn more about the school's innovative approach to medical education.
Called TeamLEAD (learn, engage, apply, develop), the method is a radical departure from traditional lecture-based teaching formats. Instead, students are responsible for learning the bulk of the material before class, using recorded lectures from Duke University School of Medicine along with reading assignments from textbooks and medical journals.
Once in class, they are tested both individually and in small groups, so instructors can focus the rest of the session on areas of weakness. The teams then work together, with "open-book" access to medical references, to solve clinically oriented questions related to the material.
"The best doctor is no longer the doctor with the best memory," says Robert Kamei, MD, vice dean for education at Duke-NUS. "In an age when information is available anywhere, instantaneously, we want to provide students with the skills they'll need in the future -- the ability to find the latest information and apply it to clinical practice.
To succeed at the highest level, they need to be able to both work in teams and provide leadership, so our curricular approach focuses on developing those abilities, not just rote memorization."
Although the concept of team-based learning was introduced in business schools in the 1980s, TeamLEAD is the first time it has been adapted for medical education.
"It's difficult to introduce a whole new approach within an existing school," says Ranga Krishnan, MB, ChB, dean of Duke-NUS. "In Singapore we had the opportunity to ask ourselves, with everything we know now about medicine, research, and teaching, what is the best way to train our students?"
"There are significant advantages to the TeamLEAD approach," agrees Edward Buckley, MD, vice dean for education at Duke medical school, who helped develop the Duke-NUS curriculum. "It makes more efficient use of the instructor's time and is better suited to the way adults learn, which is by applying new information in a practical context. It's also very good preparation for clinical practice, which is increasingly moving toward multidisciplinary, team-based care."
In fact, the approach is now being adopted in pilot programs at "Duke Durham," as the U.S. school is known in Singapore. This year, first-year medical students in the Brain and Behavior, Molecules and Cells, and Body and Diseases courses participated in team-based learning exercises, and "we plan to adapt more of the methodology going forward, especially after we move into our new Learning Center," says Buckley.
"The opportunity to exchange these kinds of ideas and share experiences is a very rich and rewarding part of this partnership."
See page 12 of the Summer 2011 issue of DukeMed Magazine (PDF, 5 MB) to learn more about the graduates of the Duke-NUS class of 2011.

Raspberry Patch Cream Pie Recipe
Our family loves raspberries, and this pie keeps the flavor and firmness of the berries intact. The combination of the berry-gelatin and cream cheese layers keeps everyone coming back for seconds.
—Allison Anderson
Raymond, Washington
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 5 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 teaspoons 2% milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1-1/3 cups cold water
- 1/4 cup raspberry gelatin powder
- 3 cups fresh raspberries
- In a small bowl, combine the cracker crumbs, sugar and butter. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack.
- For filling, in a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla. Carefully spread over crust.
- For topping, in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until slightly thickened.
- Arrange raspberries over filling. Spoon gelatin mixture over berries. Refrigerate until set. Yield: 6-8 servings.

Raspberry gelatin powder is a box of raspberry jello minus the water... I hope that helps! Good luck :)

Super duper yummy!! The only thing I would do next time I make it is bake the crust for 7 min. instead of 9 min. The crust stuck to the pan and was hard to get out with the rest of the rasp. filling.
Other than that, I luved the combination of flavors in this recipe!

Werkha revives the minimal genius of "Silk" and entrusts Indie Shuffle with the tender package! And so begins this epic anecdote…
As listeners, we never have to think about how music gets on the web. We simply press play and listen. If it's available for download or purchase, great. If not, most of us never take the time to worry about it, we just move on.
Most times it's better that we don't know. Somewhere in our subconscious we like to think our treasured artists keep their tracks locked in the safe of eternal somewhere like otherworldly gems that cannot be destroyed via digitally or otherwise. The reality of the situation is not so, and many great tracks fall victim to hard drive casualty or dated PC debauchery.
But here at the Shuffle, we make it our business to know what's happening with those tracks. We're like the little elves that make your listening experience possible and we genuinely care about the dynamics between accessibility and great material.
You may already be familiar with the Manchester based producer Werkha, but if not, now is as good a time as any to get acquainted. He recently released his debut Cube & Puzzle EP via Cool Kids Music, and is currently working toward the next EP. With BBC radio 6 host Gilles Peterson now supporting Werkha tracks, Annie Mac showcases and Radio 1 essential mixes may be just around the corner. But before I get ahead of myself, Werkha has some killer remixes slated for 2013 that you won't want to miss.
The other day while on a Werkha binge, I had another "whoa" moment listening to a track called "Silk." Staring at the ghostly arrow of its former downloadable self, a particular sort of panic bubbled in me knowing that the fate of an amazing track might be nearing extinction due to time, human error or technological hiccups.
Thus, I contacted Werkha over the issue. He confirmed my fears — the track had almost lost its way into the void of all voids. But Werkha, performing no minor feat, ventured into the depths of fickle floppies and disorderly files, battled a dead PC zombie and rescued the track from destruction. Presenting to Indie Shuffle the exclusive re-download of "Silk," with a noble bow of the head Werkha added these words,
"This is the only copy I have as I did it on an old PC which is now dead and all. This is all that remains."
…… *gasp. Can you hear my sigh of relief through your computer screen? It's tangible. Anyway, we're proud to offer you "Silk" exclusively at Indie Shuffle. Download with passion and thank Werkha for being rad. Good luck with those California dreams young sir.

Re: batch sending in sync modeSriram Subramanian 2013-06-24, 09:24
The messages will be grouped by their destination broker and further
grouped by topic/partition. The send then happens to each broker with a list of topic/partitions and messages for them and waits for an acknowledgement from each broker. This happens sequentially. So, the messages are acknowledged in batches per broker. Going forward, we are looking into providing some kind of callback mechanism for the async mode after a successful send that would help one to perform further processing.

A lack of building standards in many developing countries can lead to poorly designed and constructed homes that collapse when earthquakes strike, displacing, injuring and killing people. The 2010 earthquake in Haiti alone claimed hundreds of thousands of lives when the 7.0 magnitude tremor crumbled homes into rubble. Knowing there was a simple solution to this man-made problem, Hausler created a six-step process for home reconstruction that yields sturdy, economically and culturally feasible buildings which she has been implementing since 2004.
Build Change's model is based on simplicity. Beginning with a thorough examination of a region's unsafe housing issues, Hausler's team makes slight adjustments to the original building construction plans rather than overhauling an area's traditional architectural structure. Build Change then helps community members work with locally available materials and labor to rebuild. The outcome is a cost-effective, easily modified, and most importantly, culturally accepted construction method the homeowner adopts and understands.
"Dr. Hausler's work proves that the wheel doesn't need to be re-invented. Innovation as a result of smart improvements to existing technologies can be equally effective. Elizabeth is a remarkable example of someone whose work is a catalyst for wide-scale adoption by using a model that is economically and socially sustainable," states Joshua Schuler, executive director of the Lemelson-MIT Program. "She realizes that local people will use only what skilled labor and materials are readily available in their communities to build their homes. Leveraging that knowledge, and coupling it with her engineering aptitude and ability to teach, she has transformed the standard donor-driven model of post-earthquake reconstruction."

With Monroe Community College now poised to move its downtown campus out of the Sibley Building and across town to Kodak, the question remains what Sibley's current owners will do with a building that will be nearly empty in three years.
It's all but a done deal now, pending full funding from the state and SUNY college system. MCC on Tuesday received final approval from Monroe County to move out of the hulking Sibley building in just a few years.
So what does that mean for the future of the Sibley building, and downtown?
Mayor Tom Richards has guaranteed since last summer that new owner Winn Development would be the company to bring this once grand structure back to prosperity, but now, it appears that plan for success won't include MCC, so Winn has outlined an alternative plan to success.
A big part of that plan will be the Rochester Police Department. Officials with Winn confirmed to us Wednesday: the Police Department is planning on building a new substation inside Sibley.
"We're hoping to break ground by April, and have up to 50 police officers in there by July 1st," said Joseph Eddy, Winn Development. "It's something that's been in the works for a while. I think that everyone in Rochester wants downtown to be the safest place in Rochester, and I think that's what we're going to have." In a statement Wednesday morning, Winn Managing Principal Gilbert Winn said:
"We are moving forward with a number of exciting improvements for the community this year, including a new Rochester Police station; a new, dedicated office lobby; new escalators; retail lobby and streetscape improvements; and pre-development of the first housing phase in the tower."
So Sibley and Winn Development are definitely being counted on by the mayor to help revitalize a struggling downtown. It will just take some time before we know the true measure of success.
