Success Stories
Congress Recognizes Zimmer For Tornado Coverage
It's just another day at the office for the Zimmer Radio Group when it comes to providing award-winning community service. The Zimmer family has always been about using radio as a tool to serve local communities. So it's really no surprise that the company has been recognized by Congress. Missouri Congressman Billy Long presented The Zimmer Radio Group with a copy of the Congressional Record from December 16th, when he cited Zimmer Radio's work following the May 22nd tornado.
NewsTalk KZRG and Zimmer Radio provided live 24 hour coverage for over a week following the deadly tornado in Missouri. Long said, "It was just excruciating to drive down over here from Springfield and hear people call crying, panicked, looking for family members, didn't know which end was up, didn't know if their folks were alive, in a hospital, where they might be. So it just meant a whole lot."
ZRG Operations Manager Chad Elliot tells Radio Ink, "Its an honor to be recognized for our efforts on May 22nd. Zimmer Radio broadcast around the clock one hour prior to the tornado striking Joplin and continued for 9 days with disaster and relief information. We are fortunate to work for a great broadcaster James Zimmer who provides us with the tools and staff to succeed! We have a culture of community in our company and it shined brightly that night! If you talk with any of our associates theyll you we were just doing our job."
KZRG listener Patricia Katopol posted "Absolutely well deserved. I listened online for days and was very impressed with the quality of programming - and the obvious concern and care that the broadcasters had for their fellow citizens - during the crisis."

Review: Create very basic collages with Viscom Photo
Viscom Photo lets you perform minor edits on your digital images and create collages. Everything works as promised, but there aren't many features or editing tools and the end results look OK, but not great. The biggest downside is that once you've created a collage, the only way to view it is through the program, which limits the program's overall usefulness.
Installation is quick and the program opens to a plain window with two tabs under a File menu. The first tab is where you'll create your collages and the second is for editing images. Both … Read more

Punk: Chaos to Couture
The Met Gala is a glamorous arena for high fashion; the event of the season, the Oscars of fashion. With the theme noted as "Punk: Chaos to Couture" we expected nothing but chain-wearing, lip-piercing, eye-lining counterculture movements of the seventies and eighties. Even the evening's hair and make-up featured a predominance of punk touches.
As stated by the Met curator, Andrew Bolton, "Fashion is to provoke, to confront, to react."

Martin Jol is certainly looking to make his mark on the Fulham squad patrolling Craven Cottage next year during his first full summer transfer window with the club. His first step is to allow three players, Andy Johnson, Pavel Pogrebnyak, and the captain Danny Murphy to leave.
You could make valid arguments for letting go all three of those players. AJ was old and injured often, and hadn't contributed much compared to what was expected of him after making a highly-touted move to Fulham. Pogrebnyak was a force upon entering Craven Cottage, but faded down the stretch as teams figured out how to remove him from a game. Danny Murphy is 35 years old, and was becoming less and less capable of making it a full 90 minutes.
However, put these three moves together, couple them with the fact that Fulham are still not out of the hot water when it comes to Clint Dempsey and Moussa Dembele, and this roster needs some serious overhaul this summer. While there are some very capable youth ranks who could step in and make an impact (most notably I would expect Alex Kacaniklic to see serious playing time in place of Danny Murphy, although he's more of an attacking mid), they're young and untested, and entrusting a youth squad with filling this many holes is very unwise.
I don't doubt that Martin Jol has a plan, but whatever it is, all we the fans have been privy to watch is the exodus that could quite easily become even worse if the Dempsey and Dembele situations worsen.
In addition, the men he's allowing to leave are significant contributors from last year. Between those three men, Jol is allowing 68 appearances, 12 goals, and 10 assists from just this past season go. And that doesn't count the possible departure of more production: the 73 appearances, 19 goals, and 10 assists courtesy of Dempsey and Dembele.
And it's not just what he's letting go. It's when they're coming out. The news broke that these three men were leaving just five days apart. It's a bit of a shock to Fulham fans, who now see their club completely barren at the striker position (Ruiz/Dempsey/Dembele their best goal threats now, none of which are true strikers; best true strikers at the moment are Orlando Sa and Marcello Trotta) as well as without their constant at midfield.
So how are you feeling after the shock? Were these the right decisions? Are you glad they're all gone at once? If anything, it sure does open up some great wage room.

The diagram below shows the key points to measure when calculating size, then simply select the correct size from the chart above. It's best to actually take body measurements rather than measuring over clothes. You shouldn't need to 'size up' or 'down' unless you have a particular fit preference of course.
Back to top
Keep your bra on and measure in inches around your ribcage directly under your bust.
This gives you the band or back size. When measuring, you should always round down! Your underband should be snug, e.g. If you achieve 29.5 ins then round down.
For example: your underband measurement is 29in then add 5 ins - you are a 34.
Now measure around the fullest part of your bust, the full bust measurement less underband = cup size. When measuring, you should always round up!
The over bust measurement should always be generous, e.g. If you achieve 34.5 ins then round up to 35 ins.
width - toes should have room to spread with no bulges at the shoes widest part.length - there should be half an inch (1.25cm) between the end of the shoe and the longest toe.
High leg boots that do not have any stretch material in them will not fit everyone. To find out whether boots will fit, use the calf measurement chart below.
In order to get the most precise measurement it's best to get someone to measure for you.

VEX Robotics 2011 World Championship gets Microchip support
Microchip sponsors VEX Robotics 2011 World Championship and other competitions in Arizona to assist interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs, to get more young people excited and interested in pursuing a career in engineering.
Microchip Technology Inc., a provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, sponsored the 2011 VEX Robotics World Championship. In addition to the 2011 VEX Robotics World Championship, Microchip will also sponsor two regional VEX Robotics Competitions in Arizona for the 2011-2012 competition season.
The 2011 VEX Robotics World Championship is the premier event for the world's top middle-school, high-school and college VEX Robotics teams. VEX competitors throughout the world have used Microchip products as part of their robot designs, for the past four years. Microchip's PIC18F8520 8-bit microcontroller is featured in VEX's autonomous and dual-control starter bundles, while Microchip's C Complier is offered as a programming option.
The competition promotes education in the areas of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), and teaches critical life skills such as teamwork, project management and problem solving. It is the largest, fastest-growing middle- and high-school robotics program in the world, with more than 2,500 teams from 20 countries playing in more than 200 annual tournaments worldwide.
"Today's students are tomorrow's innovators," said Steve Sanghi, president and CEO of Microchip. "By supporting the VEX Robotics Competitions, Microchip is advancing STEM education, building excitement about technology and investing in our future."
As part of Microchip's 2011-2012 Arizona regional sponsorships, a grant was awarded on behalf of Microchip to the Arizona tournament partners for both events, which provides the playing field, game kit, electronics and trophies. Two Arizona-regional rookie teams also received grants from Microchip. These grants will provide the teams with a full VEX Robotics classroom lab kit and cover cost of their VEX Robotics Competition registration fee.
Microchip has a rich tradition of supporting STEM education initiatives. In addition to sponsoring the 2011 VEX Robotics World Championship and the VEX Robotics Competitions in Arizona, Microchip has supported FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics for 11 years. Since 2003, Microchip has served as the Organizing Sponsor and Leader in Technology Sponsor of the FIRST Robotics Competition Arizona Regional. Additionally, Sanghi serves as a FIRST sponsor, co-chair of the FIRST Arizona Regional Planning Committee and as a member of the FIRST Board of Directors, and many Microchip employees serve as FIRST team mentors and volunteers.

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

"Patient Safety, Law Policy and Practice"
25 May 2011
Pippa Bark's book, co-edited with John Tingle, a lawyer from Nottingham, has just been published by Routledge. (Link: Amazon)
Patient safety is an issue which in recent years has
grown to prominence in a number of countries' political and health service
agendas and the World Health Organisation has launched the World Alliance for
Patient Safety. Millions of patients, according to the Alliance, endure
prolonged ill-health, disability and death caused by unreliable practices,
services, and poor health care environments. There is no doubt therefore that
this is an essential area, and the book is the extent to which policy is making
things better. It asks whether legal systems are being used in appropriate ways
to support state and local managerial systems in developing patient safety
procedures, and what alternative approaches can and should be utilised.
The chapters in this collection explore the patient safety managerial structures that exist in countries where there is a developed patient safety infrastructure and culture. The legal structures of these countries are explored and related to major in-country patient safety issues such as consent to treatment protocols and guidelines, complaint handling, adverse incident reporting systems, and civil litigation systems, in order to draw comparisons and conclusions on patient safety. One of Pippa's areas of interest is the psychological impact errors have on staff and patients, and she has focused on the impact policy has had in addressing the human suffering that can result in her own chapter (Link: Psychological aspects of patient safety).
Whilst it is early days in book sales, the publishers have expressed interest in a follow up book and John and Pippa are working on a parallel book on patient safety in the developing countries.

Reviews for Ravioli Lasagna(25)
Sort By :
This is so easy to make and my family just loved it. Terri Ann
Very quick to put together and tasted really good. Will certainly make again.
When I found this recipe I knew I had to make it. Now I did switch it up a little bit using Italian Sausage instead of hamburger, also didn't have the spaghetti sauce that I needed to make it, but to make what the recipe called for I used Alfredo Sauce an substituted the cheese for a mix of Provel, and Mozzarella cheese. This made it very creamy and had extra sause for it which is what I like. Overall very good recipe and I will definately be making this again
I thought this was very good and tasted much like the more hard to prepare lasagna. I added italian seasoning to the ground turkey and added sliced provolone cheese in between the ravioli layers with italian mix cheese on top. My husband and son were less excited about it than I was but I thought that was because they don't do the cooking and so they don't know the time and effort that goes into making 'real' lasagna!!
Used 2% cheese to cut down on cal & fat. Will use finely shredded next time.

We offer two ways to locate information:
We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Penfolds St Henri is a highly successful and alternative expression of Shiraz and an intriguing counterpoint to Grange. It is unusual among high quality Australian red wines as it does not rely on any new oak. It was created in the early 1950s (first commercial vintage 1957) and gained a new lease of life in the 1990s as its quality and distinctive style became better understood.
St Henri is rich and plush when young, gaining soft, earthy, mocha-like characters as it ages. It is matured in old, 1460-litre vats that allow the wine to develop, imparting minimal, if any oak character. Although a small proportion of Cabernet is sometimes used to improve structure, the focal point for St Henri remains Shiraz.
Color: Bright, youthful, red. Nose: Pure, real, unadulterated, honest Shiraz... and 100% at that in this 2007 vintage release! Primarily, freshly-pureed mixed-berries - raspberry, mulberry, loganberry, sitting alongside aromas alike those from candied/toffeed apple. Fresh, vibrant, lively. Palate: A complete wine - fruits, tannins, acid, maturation artifacts... all combine to structurally & texturally deliver. Tannins are even throughout, yet serve to tighten palate in middle, with a singular, central focus. Robe markers - crushed shale (and saltbush/ bluebush?) evident... perhaps understandable at over one quarter of blend volume. Poised, yet still lush, generous.
"The colour is bright and deep, the bouquet with black fruits, some meaty aromas and potent spice and licorice components. In the mouth, the flavours are overwhelmingly of black fruits, with echoes of the spice and licorice of the bouquet, and a hint of tobacco. The ripe, but fine, tannins attest to the skills of the winemaking team. " 95 Points Australian Wine Companion
"Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2007 St Henri Shiraz is a little closed at this stage, revealing subtle earthy notes over crushed blackberries, pencil lead, toast, game, smoky bacon and tree bark. Medium bodied, elegantly fruited and still very tight-knit, the palate offers beautiful purity structured with firm chewy tannins and very crisp acid that should see it through a long life. Consider drinking it 2013 to 2022+." 93 Points The Wine Advocate
"Opaque ruby. Rich cherry and dark berry compote aromas are complicated by dried rose and smoky Indian spices. Dark fruit flavors display impressive concentration and an almost oily texture but are in no way heavy. Becomes chewier on the finish, which emphatically echoes the dark fruit flavors and leaves behind notes of candied licorice and bitter chocolate. This bottling has an admirable track record for aging. " 93 Points International Wine Cellar
"This vintage of St. Henri shows its old-vine intensity without any jamminess. It's youthful and concentrated, surprisingly smoky for a wine made without any new oak. St. Henri often needs several years in the bottle to show at its best; this '07 is acessible on release, a clean, sleek shiraz for roast lamb." 91 Points Wine & Spirits

ø Ignore NoOneofConsequenceMy entry - unnamed
Treffin balanced his fighting knife by the point of its blade on the palm of his hand. It was a trick that he had almost completely perfected and he used it frequently to exude an air of professional indifference; the look of a competent mercenary too experienced to be surprised by anything and only interested in his own aptitude with weapons. At least that was how it had looked to Treffin when hed seen a mercenary sergeant doing it last summer in the taproom of the Crofters Rest. Treffin had been so impressed hed bought himself a similar dagger from a tinker at the next market day and had spent the winter teaching himself the trick. He felt it made him look very calm and competent, and he only cut himself very infrequently nowadays.
Not that the sage he was working for would likely have noticed, even if Treffin cut his own hand right off. The small, skinny man with the sparse white beard and grizzled face spent the whole day bent over flowers, while Treffin stood guard against wild animals or monsters. It was Treffins first real job as a mercenary and while he was glad to be paid, he had no idea it would be so boring. He was to keep watch at the head of the field while the sage danced about from flower to flower, seeking out what he called the Mickelmas bee, which the sage claimed should frequent the flowers of fields like this one.
Treffin had never heard of the Mickelmas bee before the sage had hired him, but he now knew how the species differed from the regular honey bee, how rare the species was and how the jelly from the insects hive was an important ingredient for several rare alchemical recipes. The young mercenary had not wanted to learn all these details, but having spent day after day listening to the sages expostulations, Treffin was sure that he could easily pick a Mickelmas bee from a hundred paces. In fact the bee that had landed on a nearby flower was almost certainly was a Mickelmas. Treffin called the sage.
Oh well done, said the sage, leaning close to study the bee as it walked across the heavily pollen-covered flower. This is exactly what Im looking for. Now Ill try and find the hive.
I should charge you extra, for this, said Treffin. He was well satisfied with the price hed originally negotiated, but hed heard that experienced mercenaries always keep an eye out for extra payment. The sage wasnt interested.
Instead he handed his mercenary guard the empty water skin and said, Be a good lad and refill this in the grotto while I look for the hive.
Treffin wanted to protest, but realized that his own skin needed refilling, since hed drunk it dry over the course of the morning. He took the sages skin and headed up over the shoulder of the mountain.
The grotto was a deep fissure in the dark basalt of the mountain rock. From a thin crack about half way up the north wall of the fissure an underground river cascaded to a pool at the grottos bottom. The waters dark surface was in constant motion, and the steep fissure walls kept the whole area cool and in shadow.
Treffin made his way down the rough-hewn path in the grotto wall, heading towards the pool. He was becoming increasingly resentful at being treated like the sages lackey and he was certain that no truly professional mercenary would settle for such treatment. As he worked his way down he muttered to himself; I should definitely charge extra for this.
Treffin was almost to the narrow pebbled beach at the bottom of the grotto, when he heard the sound of weeping. No more than twenty paces away, sitting at the waters edge, was a woman. She was facing the water, her long black hair cascading down her back in lustrous waves. Her skin was the color of honey. As near as Treffin could make out, she was completely naked and the sound of her crying carried even over the noise of the falling water. Nearly irresistible visions filled Treffins mind; of damsels in distress, being rescued in a proficient, military manner by young mercenaries out for glory and pay, but not above the occasional act of chivalry. He raced across the pebbles, casting down the water skins as he ran.
Tell me, mlady, he called out, trying to sound calm and confident. What troubles you?
The beauty and succulence of youth, came the womans reply, with a voice that sounded like bones cracking against the rocks of a fast flowing river.
Treffin recoiled in horror as the woman turned to face him. The honey colored skin sloughed off like an old cloak, revealing a warty green hide. The hair transformed into a tangled, black mat, like rotting swamp grass. The creatures face was dominated by long hooked nose and her eyes were blacker than the depths of the grotto pool.
Such a pleasure to entertain so juicy a meal, the monster said, her breath stinking like slime. Her long, bony arm shot out and grasped Treffin by the throat. He tried to struggle, but the creatures grip was stronger than deep current and she was inexorably choking the breath from his lungs. He reached for his dagger, but the blinding pain in his head was too much and the blade slipped from his grip. Blackness, like the darkness of the deep pool, rose up in his eyes as he began to feel himself pass out.
From above the contending pair came the sound of arcane language, invoking magic older than the dawn of time. A bolt of eldritch energy, a lightning bolt of emerald and gold, arced downward and struck the monster fair in the chest. Treffin staggered back, released from the creatures grip. He gasped loudly, sucking in sweet, fresh air. The green-skinned monster screamed in pain and frustration as, high above, the sage intoned another spell. The monster tried to flee towards the safety of the pool, but the sages magic struck it down before it could take even a step, and it fell, dead, across the rocks.
Treffin could hear the swift sounds of the sages footsteps as he rubbed his sore neck and tried to clear his vision. Thank you, he started to say, when he realized that the sage had run straight past him to the body of the monster. He slowly levered himself off the pebbles and staggered over.
A river hag, said the sage, his delight obvious. This is an excellent find, my boy. Do you have any idea what I can do with the skin alone? Then theres the teeth; the bones; I think I even have a use for the eyes!
Lots of alchemical recipes? asked Treffin.
Oh yes, rare ones. River hag ingredients are especially difficult to come by.
Right, said Treffin, looking for his dagger. Ill have to charge you extra for this then.Another Ceramic DM

ø Ignore SpeakerSniktch vs. Speaker
Long have we fought, you and I. Always waging warfare, subtly twisting the others plans. At long last, our battle will end. Ours champion approaches your domain, and we will do battle. But now we shall play for stakes so great that when this game draws to an end, there is only one victor.
That, I promise.
Incredible. Just what we were expecting, and yet still a blow. Wen heard Fell say as he came up alongside. She turned to look at the mage, peered into the dark red depths of his cloak, and then glanced out at the mighty expanse of snow and hoarfrost before them.
Fell heard her unvoiced scepticism.
This winter will not last, Wen. With every step I take into this wasteland, the ice witch loses power and the snow will melt away. I assure you, this land will never again go without warmth.
Wen turned back to the cold, shuddered. I hope so.
See a vision of the future, my queen.
A picture forms in the air, of a knight in red and blue, young and with a smile upon her face.
The woman is not alone. Behind her there are two nearly indistinct figures. Over one shoulder -- a being of heat, fire so hot it burns white and with a brilliance not unlike the sun. Over the other a being of cold, a chill so great that no light escapes, and there is only utter darkness.
She must choose between us, my queen. Between summer and winter.
(Insert Knight and her companions picture)
She held herself still, training her sharp eyes ahead. At first, her vision was hampered by the bright sheen thrown off the glacial white ground, but slowly her eyes adjusted and the truth of the situation became apparent to her. The snow was coming alive. Slowly, very slowly, the ground was moving as the sun began to accomplish something it had not achieved in months the melting of the waste.
The winter is about to break. Fell noted. Look, there.
Wen saw them at the same moment. Two great white bears off in the distance, frolicking in the snow. No, not snow. Bare ground, with stubborn tufts of old grass within. With powerful muscles, the two beasts reared up to playfully strike one another, heedless to the changing world about them. Wen frowned. They dont belong here. We are almost half a world away from the northern ice isles.
They are the ice queens pets. We will have to skirt wide around them, in case they alert their mistress of our coming. So saying, Fell started to walk once more, heading on a path that would take him away from the bears and yet still towards the centre of the ice kingdom they sought. Wen took one last look at the bears, and then turned to follow the red cloaked mage.
Behind them, the white servants of the ice queen played on, enjoying the light and the cooling winds.
(Insert Playing polar bears picture)
I am here. Show yourself.
Wen entered the ancient square carefully, alert for any sign of danger, sword held firmly in hand.
The palace they sought loomed before them, a massive construction in the midst of the mixed spring and winter that characterized the clash of powers now taking place. The building had a faded look, made of stone and worn mortar, a bastion that time wore at ceaselessly. Dilapidated pillars held onto the cobblestones with tired resolve, and the flagstones Fell had nearly collapsed upon seemed on the verge of self-destruction.
Water ran about everywhere as snow and ice continued to melt.
It was then that Wen realized that she Fell was not following her. She turned about and saw him. He was not alone.
You have come far to face me, you and your friend. Sneered the white woman, whom Fell faced, her stark features and black clothing the definition of contrast. Before you strike me down, perhaps you might want to know the true nature of your travelling companion?
Wen glanced at Fell with some measure of confusion at her travelling companion. What does she mean?
The red robed mage smirked, his powerful features still as he stares at the ice queen they have travelled so far to face. I have no idea
I will tell her. The white queen spits out in rage. You have seen how he melts my creation, how he challenges my power. No mortal could do what he does. He and I are no different. But where I am a creature of cold and ice, he is a being of fire and heat. You came here to destroy me, but you would put up another tyrant if you replaced me with him.
Abruptly Wen found herself caught within a vision, in which the ice covered lands she had so recently travelled through were suddenly smothered in smoke. Fires burned without cease on the hill slops, and ash filled the skies.
(Insert Smoking Hills picture)
Is this what you sought? the woman laughed, and her voice was chill.
Wen turned to Fell, and asked simply Is this so?
Fell smiled, although it was a smile of strain, and his gaze never left the eyes of the Ice Queen. I will not lie to you, Wen. I am a being of fire who better to fight one of ice? And my victory is not without a cost. But where cold may hold a land in sway forever, heat is a passing thing. When the fires burn out, the land will grow again. The ashes will feed the soil, and the plants will come quickly. For fire holds some power of growth. Watch.
With that, the red mage shifted his gaze upward for a moment. In that instant, the air twisted with heat, and vines sprouted from the pillars about the ice queen, surrounding her with flowering roses and green leaves.
(Insert Roses and the Queen picture)
The Ice Queen laughed. Growth through death. As if he was alone in that power. I am winter. I come every year to many lands, and yet I still depart freely, leaving room for life. You see, I too can create new life out of death. And she too moved her vision, and the flagstones about Fell parted as an equally luxuriant bed of roses grew about him.
You must destroy her now. Said Fell. She and I are locked in combat, but we are equals. Neither of us dares move, lest the other gain some opening. That is why I brought you, so that you might strike for me at this moment, and free this land from the Ice Queen.
Wen looked about her. She gazed at the sky, with the sun up high, beating down on the snow. She looked at the water running through the square, through the myriad cracks in the paving stones. She remembered the playful bears.
She turned to the two immortals, locked in battle, both of which would never break free themselves, for fear of losing to the other. Had they really thought that she could choose between two such alternatives?
Then to her suprise, she found she could.
My decision is made. She said.
Then she turned. And smiled. And walked away.
Spring came.A Ceramic DM.

ø Ignore Speaker...And that's it.
I told myself that whatever I had by 12 o' the clock, I would post. Then midnight rolled around, and I still wasn't satisfied, so I gave myself another hour.
I am still not satisfied, and I do not think I would be short of a complete overhual and a rewrite... but I have a long drive to undertake early tommorow, and I need to get to sleep... now.
Silly me, leaving things to the last minute .
I look forward to seeing what you put up, Sniktch.

ø Ignore Dark EternalHere is my submission - only hours before the deadline, I know... (busy weekend!)
Your Worship;
It is my honor to submit this accounting of the events of my recent experience, as requested by your humble servant the Lord Knight of Verithress, Inquisitor of Siell, Our Deliverer, Light of All Creation. Enclosed you will find a number of illustrations that have been prepared at my request and with my supervision, each detailing a relevant detail of the events proclaimed herein. It is my hope that you will find these accountings to address and disprove the charges levied against me by His Holiness, the Bishop. If, however, it is your finding that my actions are deserving of censure, I shall immediately and assuredly submit myself for judgement, in accord with the Sacred Writ.
In Eternal Service to Our Deliverer;
Lerien Steelboure, Holy Paladin of Siell
It was nine days ago that I encountered the strange insect-like creature called Tikakrak upon the road between the High City of Ilradian and the port of Silverwind Bay. He lay by the side of the road, grievously injured and without awareness. I discerned no evil upon him, and so in accord with the Sacred Writ, I acted to heal his injuries, in the name of Siell. Upon recovering consciousness, he identified himself as an adventuring minstrel of the Thri-kreen, and did relate to me his tale.
A well-armed force of bandits, robbed and wounded, and left for dead had waylaid him. He was well informed regarding the activity of these bandits, and did provide me with much useful information. Particularly did he stress the need to recover an ancient and magical relic stolen by these rogues - an instrument named Sirithaene, of which I have provided an illustration. By his accounting, I determined that this relic should not be left in the hands of villains, and I swore to find the bandits and retrieve Sirithaene. After accompanying Tikakrak to an inn in the High City, I did go to the fortress there and request the aid of a force of clerics and holy warriors in seeking out the bandits and bringing them to justice. It is from this that the charges of the Lord Knight of Verithress stem, as I will explain.
Code:Sidebar Sirithaene This intelligent double-necked lute was formed from precious metals and rare woods, and infused with the spirits of two fallen dragons who had died defending an elven stronghold from a force of fiends. A master bard working in concert with an ancient elven sorcerer created the lute as a gift for his four-armed student, a rare Thri-kreen bard. Over two centuries, the lute has been passed down through seven generations of Thri-kreen adventurers, and now belongs to the traveling bard Tikakrak. Sirithaene is a powerful relic, vastly aiding its possessors Bardic Knowledge ability, and telepathically warding him against danger, among other abilities.
Further questioning revealed that Wurgorn's lair was hidden beyond a mystical portal deep in the foothills. After the remainder of the bandits were captured, I and the clerics with me tended the wounds of those who had ridden into battle with us, and I detailed a number of them to escort the fallen and our prisoners back to the High City. The remainder of our number pressed on into the foothills, in search of the portal Corcair had described. Another two days passed before we located the portal - of which an illustration is provided. We made camp that eve and prepared ourselves to assault the wizard's lair upon the morn.
The following day, we passed beyond the portal. We found ourselves within a mountain stronghold, deep beneath the earth. It was a foul and treacherous labyrinth, stocked with many traps and guarded by strange and deformed creatures from beyond the grave, and our progress was most arduous. We carried with us the blessing of Our Deliverer, however, and by the grace of Siell, we were able to eventually penetrate the heart of the dungeon. It is there that we finally encountered the most wicked and abominable creature in the enclosed illustration, which did call itself Wurgorn.
Code:Sidebar The Deformed Halfling Lich, Wurgorn Born with a hideously oversized head, Wurgorn was once a halfling known as Durgann. He was gifted with incredible intelligence, but persecuted for his terrible deformity. Over time, Durgann became resentful and bitter, and in time he fled his community to pursue the path of dark magics, by which means he would earn the respect that his superior intellect was due. Over time, he became irrevocably corrupted by the increasingly evil powers he sought, and eventually he became quite mad. Returning to his former home, he used his dark magics to kill or capture all those who had once scorned him. The survivors he performed magical transformations upon, eventually twisting and deforming them far in excess of his own malformations. He then used them to explore the dread realm of undeath, eventually unlocking the secrets of lichdom. He transformed himself accordingly, and now seeks to master magics that can pervert and deform the living on a mass scale. He works with numerous bands of pirates and bandits, providing them with magical support in return for the monies needed to further his research.
Thus does the Lord Knight charge me with abandoning a sworn quest, with cowardly flight from duty, and with abandoning the fallen bodies of my comrades. Therefore, upon his suggestion, I have prepared this letter in my defense, and submitted myself to Your Worship for judgement in the eyes of Siell. It is my hope that having read this account, Your Worship will understand that the circumstances surrounding my failure did dictate that I could not have acted in any other fashion, lest my own death ensue.
I ask only that you consider these experiences, and that you judge my plight in the wisdom of Siell, Our Deliverer, the Light of All Creation.
Prepared by my own hand, before witnesses and under the Eye of Truth, on this Eleventh day of Highmoon, in this, the Forty Third Year of His Holy Eminence. In Eternal Service to Our Deliverer;
Lerien Steelboure, Holy Paladin of Siell

Illustration Two: The Enchanted Lute, Sirithaene
Illustration Three: The Portal to Wurgorn's Dungeon

ø Ignore Dark EternalWhew. Well, that was fun. Looking back, I find one particular oversight and I curse my spellcheck software for its obssesion for correcting passive voice. I failed to note that one sentence has been rearranged and now makes no sense. The first sentence of the second paragraph in the body of the story reads, "A well-armed force of bandits, robbed and wounded, and left for dead had waylaid him." That should be, "A well-armed force of bandits had waylaid him, and robbed, wounded and left him for dead."
I don't expect that the error will be overlooked by the judges; I just had to post the correction before I could comfortably go to bed. Otherwise, I wouldn't have felt like it was actually done, ya know?
Been looking at the other submissions so far, and I have to say I'm quite impressed by all of them. I don't envy you judges, having to choose between them. Good job, everyone!
Win or lose, it's been a pleasure to be a part of this project. I hope that you all find my submission as enjoyable as I have found the others! (Arwink, I'm particularly impressed with your story. Very bold, and exceptionally well written. I won't be disappointed at all if your entry is chosen over mine - it's great!)
Thanks, and thanks.

ø Ignore SniktchSniktch vs Speaker, rd 1
Winters Breath
Cold, so cold. Numb, cant move, just laying here, sinking deeper... sweet darkness... warm now, so warm...
It is morning; I am laughing. The horses snort and stamp their hooves impatiently, but it is morning and I am enjoying Svetlanas company too much to be rushed. She says something else; I do not hear the words but I can tell by her tone that she is telling another joke, so I laugh again. Then the horses are ready and we are mounted and riding through the gate...
It is spring in Irkutsk. Thus, it is freezing, still weeks away from the brief summer thaw. But it is a good day to ride, to feel the icy wind whip through your hair, to have the sun overhead and the promise of warmer days ahead. We go to see the great bears; they are awake again and their mating rituals are in full swing. The horses sense our excitement and prance across the snowy fields, churning up a cloud of swirling frost in our wake.
The world flashes and spins before my eyes, moving forward in a blur of images... we are walking now, the horses left behind... the bears are ahead. I stop, awestruck. (pic 2) Two majestic males rear on hind legs, locked in an embrace, twisting, pulling, swatting and raking with their claws, their jaws fastened to one anothers throats. The female sits in the background, watching. The two rivals dance beautifully and gracefully for her, circling round and round, but neither is able to gain the upper hand.
They take too long. Svetlana laughs and points, calling my attention to a newcomer, another male who sneaks in craftily while the fight continues. He finds the female agreeable to his advances, bored by the long fight, and soon the pair wander off together. Eventually the wrestlers notice and stop, looking around in confusion for the object of their affection. Finding her gone, they take a last couple of half-hearted swipes at each other before slinking away dejectedly.
We cannot help it; we laugh and laugh at the defeated suitors. I turn to murmur a clever remark and freeze. Svetlana is there, the sun reflecting off of her armor and hair, a crooked little smile on her lips (pic 1). The air is strangely distorted behind her; I see strange, ominous shapes moving behind her and flashing colors, colors like I have never seen, and then a bright, blinding light...
I open my mouth to scream, but I hear nothing. Svetlana seems frozen, but a dark change seems to come over her. The color drains from her face and hair and her armor grows dull and pitted, no longer reflecting the sun. I try to turn and stagger away but I am falling, falling into the snow, wracked with pain, unable to move, slowly feeling the cold creep over me...
I wake without a sound, relief flooding me; it was a dream. Then I look around - I am lying in snow in brush beneath a tree, my armor rimed with frost. I feel numb; the only feeling left is the stiffness of my joints. I sit up and look through a gap in the brush (pic 4); stretched before me is a breathtaking landscape of forest, still buried beneath ice and snow, and shrouded in mist. I feel nothing as I take in the view; it was not a dream. And somehow I know where I must go, what I must do...
The horses are gone when I return to the place we left them. It is a long journey by foot but I trudge steadily toward my goal. The feeling does not return, and I grow neither weary nor footsore nor hungry. I march right through the change of seasons, and the snow and ice give way to greenery and an explosion of wildflowers. I wonder at my strength, for surely many days have passed and I have not rested nor eaten since my journey began, but then I shrug and continue walking. I am close; I can feel it...
I am standing before a great old palace with towering archways and columns. It looks abandoned now, falling into disrepair, the stone weathered and cracked and the flowers and vines growing rampant on the building and the grounds. (pic 3) I see her, down in front of the building, as if waiting. She is wearing a sable gown with a hood, woven with an elaborate design of white ruffles and lace. A silver crown rests upon her brow, and it looks like she is wearing a mask - it must be a mask.
It does not matter - I know her. And as I approach, I can see from her reaction that she knows me. I stop very close to her and call out, Fiend! I will destroy us all before I let you have her! My voice is cracked and broken from misuse and my words are slurred..
She replies mockingly, confidently, And what can you hope to do about it? Look at yourself; you are already dead. Lie down and accept it.
I start to reply angrily but then stop, suddenly frightened. I look down at my arms, my hands; sweet Lord, she is right - the flesh is rotted and falling away, the bone shows through. As the truth slowly dawns upon me I start to feel myself slip away; a light begins to grow in the distance. I look back up and she is laughing silently and pointing at me.
My momentary fear melts away, replaced by rage. I lunge forward, surprising her with my quickness, grasping her around the throat and squeezing, bearing her down to the floor, all my will, all my being focused on one crushing desire before the light takes me away...
Now I know everything. And nothing.

ø Ignore SniktchWhew! There we go, all finished. The picture's just screamed 'cold' and 'winter' at me, all of them, and then I got this funny little idea in my head and just went with it. I hope it turned out well and that you enjoy it. As always, win or lose I had a good time flexing my creative muscles. I'm gonna go read what Speaker turned in now...

The original content for this article was contributed by The National Institute for Genealogical Studies in June 2012. It is an excerpt from their course Canadian:Immigration Records by Patricia McGregor, PLCGS. The Institute offers over 200 comprehensive genealogy courses for a fee ($). |

Other Immigration Records
British Columbia
Another new addition by Library and Archives Canada is Immigrants from China, database General Registers of Chinese Immigration covering the years 1885-1949. You can access this searchable Immigrants from China.
There are also some provincial records for Ontario when there was an Immigration Branch under the Department of Agriculture.
- "There are some Arrival Destination registers with nominal lists from their field agencies at Kingston 1862-1878, Quebec 1872-1875 and Montreal 1878. (AO, RG11, Series M, Vol. 2; mfm MS 847 reel 6 and 7). (Merriman 1996, 142)
Recommended reading: Province of Ontario Immigration Records, An Overview, by Fawne Stratford-Devai.
The Toronto Emigrant Office
The first emigrant office in Upper Canada was opened in 1833 in Toronto, headed by A. B. Hawke. Mr. Hawke, as Chief Emigrant Agent for Upper Canada/Canada West from 1833 to 1864, was instrumental in establishing services to assist immigrants in Upper Canada. It is not totally clear which communities other than Toronto, Kingston, and Hamilton had proper "offices" as such, but Hawke received reports from agents in Ottawa, Port Hope, Peterborough, Cobourg, Prescott, and other locations at various times. Hawke's records are held by the Archives of Ontario.
An index to the four volumes of assisted immigration registers created by the Toronto Emigrant Office between 1865 and 1883 has been created and made available online by the Archives of Ontario. The database contains a chronological listing of transcriptions of the names of over 29,000 new immigrants who were assisted by the government to travel to various destinations in southern Ontario. The following webpage contains a link to the searchable Ontario database.
Olive Tree Genealogy has been adding transcriptions of Return of Emigrants Landed at the Port of Kingston Ontario, Canada 1861-1882. Transcribed from FHL Film 1405913: Arrival/Destination records (series M) 1862-1881 Vols. 1-7.
Also at Olive Tree, is an index of transcriptions of the Names of Emigrants at Montreal Quebec Canada 1845-1847 from the records of James Allison, Emigration Agent at Montreal.
Records of the Sick and Destitute
The Society For The Relief Of Strangers In Distress was established in York (Toronto) in 1817 and in 1828 was renamed the Society For The Relief Of The Sick And Destitute. The Toronto Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society accessed and transcribed a number of records including a Record Book of the society which contained information on families in need and has indexed and published the information in a book titled The Records Of The Society For The Relief Of The Sick and Destitute 1817-1847.
The following entry is from page 9 in the Provisions section and is transcribed from page 214 of the "Provisions Issued to the Sick and Destitute Poor of York from the 7th of March 1829 to 31st December 1831."
- 12 July 1831, Francis Beamish, Residence: Wooden Buildings; 1 man, 1 woman, 3 children; given tickets for 5 pounds of beef and 25 pounds of flour; recommended by Dr. Baldwin; Remarks: "He has got 3 children in the hospital sick"
Library and Archives Canada has recently added another database to their site. The Montreal Emigrant Society Passage Book for 1832 contains notes on those individuals to whom they provided assistance between May and November 1832. The site is a searchable database.
Answer to Castle Garden Exercise
A search for John PULLMAN, who disappeared after the 1851 census in Devon, England and showed up in a Toronto City Directory in 1869 produces 3 hits (December 2, 2005). Two of them can probably be eliminated.
- one ship arrived before our John was born (1834)
- the John Pullman on the 1868 ship was 53—too old to be our John
The third hit is intriguing, but more research is required to be certain: The John Pullman we are researching was born in Devon, England, not Ireland, but all of the other information fits.
- Name: John Pullman
- Occupation: Labourer
- Age: 17
- Arrived: 22 Mar 1858
- Origin: Ireland
- Port: Liverpool
- Destination: USA
- Plan: Unknown
- Ship: Ellen Austin
Further research could include:
- a search of the 1860 census for New York State
- a search of the 1861 census for Toronto
- further research in Devon records

"Bleeder," the first studio album by Louisville-based pop-rock quartet, The Fervor, has moments of brilliance, but suffers from a bit of an identity crisis.
Frontwoman Natalie Felker's vocal delivery forms the keystone throughout, shifting from a low husk to haunted and distant from track to track. Her vocals thread their way through a framework rife with piano laid over subtle percussive backing and, often understated, guitar punctuation.
Whether soaring above the rock metronome guitar/drum pairing of "Let's Fight" or providing a sultry staccato accompaniment to the keys-heavy, listless lines of "The Void," Felker's delivery has — with rare exception — just the right hooks.
Backing the prominent vocals, Felker's husband Ben (lead guitar), Mat Herron (drums) and Michael Campbell (bass) provide a solid, if background, framework. The clear center stage act here is Felker the Mrs., though her husband and Herron provide vocal accompaniment from time to time.
For all her versatility, however, Felker's voice does falter on occasion, though the fault is more often with sketchy songwriting than her singing. The lyrics of some tracks like "Fast" attempt to squeeze too many words in without the necessary beat count. As a result, Felker can't help but sound like she's tripping over herself.
Although she often stays in the lower register, it's at depth that Felker sometimes loses solidarity. During these moments — they're never long lasting — her otherwise tight vocal grip loosens slightly, and you can hear the strain.
One shining example of Felker's lower-register crooning succeeding is "Let's Fight," a throbbing, poppy call-to-arms with the rather redundant opening lines: "They'll never take us alive, take us alive / As long as we live, we will survive." Coincidentally, this is also the album's catchiest offering and the only one I found myself humming long after finishing the album.
Despite the mostly excellent singing, I think The Fervor would be well served by strengthening the instrumental presence a bit for their next album. Many of the album's tracks are slower, wistful numbers that can sometimes feel too lethargic and keys-heavy.
Listening, I couldn't help but wonder whether the album wouldn't have been more solid with a heavier guitar- and drum-heavy presence. The more energetic tracks like "Let's Fight," and "Brushfire," which are far outnumbered by the sleepy piano ballads.
While it might be unfair to say a band should aim to be something they're not necessarily trying to be, those two tracks have a strength and presence that make it clear the band is more than capable of shifting focus. That said, "Bleeder" isn't bad by any stretch, but it could use a little reorienting.

Is this the opening shot of the 2012 political season in Chatham County? Maybe. It certainly has the appearance.
I learned Wednesday from a high-placed county official that Maj. MacArthur Holmes was given his walking papers by Sheriff Al St. Lawrence. This is significant for several reasons.
St. Lawrence, a Republican, is widely believed to want another four-year term as sheriff. That race is next year -- the same year that President Obama will seek his second term.

News flash: The brain drain at the Chatham County District Attorney's Office continues.
Veteran prosecutor Jeff Hendrix, who once spearheaded the office's Juvenile Court prosecutions, has tendered his resignation to District Attorney Larry Chisolm. I understand that it's effective Sept. 30, and that Chisolm asked Hendrix to think it over for a day or two and reconsider. But Hendrix is unlikely to budge.
Hendrix, who's 60, isn't leaving to take another job like Greg McConnell, another veteran who's now prosecuting alleged offenders in nearby Liberty County.

I've been a fan of Clint Eastwood for a long time. So when I heard his raspy voice Sunday on a Super Bowl commercial, my ears perked up.
That's exactly what Chrysler wanted; it invested a boatload of money on this spot.
Unfortunately, Eastwood now finds himself in the middle of controversy about whether this "halftime in America" car commercial was really a not-so-subtle assist to help President Obama win his own Super Bowl in November.
That's a stretch.

Meg Heap put the failed administration of District Attorney Larry Chisolm on trial in Tuesday night's political forum at the Savannah Morning News and came away with a verdict in her favor.

Here's my traffic gripe of the day. Or maybe the whole year.
I haven't done any scientific studies. However, I do a lot of driving. And in my humble opinion, the roads scholar who put up the "No turn on red" sign at the end of the exit ramp from Veterans Parkway (south) onto Chatham Parkway should have his/her head examined. It makes no sense -- unless it's to force exiting motorists to sit still, burn more gas at nearly $4 per gallon and make oil companies richer.

"A name so nice you've gotta say it twice… and of course it would be nice to catch both at the same time. True story, my friend Scotty once had two hooked up in each hand and, at the same time, yelling for someone to take the other pole. We hit a school of them under a weed line and we couldn't pull them in fast enough. I think we ended up catching 16 in a matter of 5 minutes. By the time the anchor hit the water, all the Mahi-Mahi were in the boat."

I've been here for 2 years now.
I don't really have anything to say, and I don't feel like making a long blog. I don't even really feel like posting anything at all, tbh.
*sigh* I almost made it through this year without any warnings. At least I still have no infractions.
Maybe next year will be better.
I've been thinking about things lately, and I wonder how much longer I'll be here.
I can't be here forever. I feel like it will be weird for me to still be here in a few years from now :|
