Liaoning (CV-16) (Chinese: 中国人民解放军海军辽宁舰; pinyin: Zhōngguó Rénmín Jiěfàngjūn Hǎijūn Liáoníng Jiàn), is the first aircraft carrier commissioned into the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN).[4] She is classified as a training ship, intended to allow the Navy to practice with carrier usage.
Originally laid down as the Admiral Kuznetsov class multirole aircraft carrier Riga for the Soviet Navy, she was launched on December 4, 1988 and renamed Varyag in 1990. The stripped hulk was purchased in 1998 by the People's Republic of China and towed to Dalian Shipyard in north eastern China. After being completely rebuilt and undergoing sea trials, the ship was commissioned into the PLAN as the Liaoning on September 25, 2012.[4][5]
Design of the carrier was undertaken by the Nevskoye Planning and Design Bureau.[6] The ship was laid down as Riga at Shipyard 444 (now Nikolayev South) in Mykolaiv, Ukraine on December 6, 1985.[7][8] Launched on December 4, 1988, the carrier was renamed (Varyag) in late 1990, after the famous Russian cruiser.
Construction ceased by 1992, with the ship structurally complete but without electronics. With the dissolution of the Soviet Union, ownership was transferred to Ukraine; the ship was laid up, unmaintained, and then stripped. By early 1998, she lacked engines, a rudder, much of her operating systems, and was put up for auction.[9] The hulk of the carrier was purchased from Ukraine in 1998 under the account it would be used as a floating casino, and towed to China.[10] She has since been refitted by the PLAN as an aircraft carrier for research and training."[11]
Soviet and post-Soviet role[edit]
While designated an aircraft carrier by the West, the design of the Admiral Kuznetsov class implied a mission different from carriers of the United States Navy, Royal Navy or French Navy. The Russian-language term used by her builders to describe the Soviet-era ships is "тяжёлый авианесущий крейсер" tyazholiy avianesushchiy kreyser (TAKR or TAVKR) "heavy aircraft-carrying cruiser", intended to support and defend strategic missile-carrying submarines, surface ships, and maritime missile-carrying aircraft of the Russian fleet. As such, the Soviet Union and later Russia argued that these ships are not aircraft carriers under the Montreux Convention and not subject to the tonnage limits imposed on these ships in traveling through the Bosphorus.[12][13]
Fixed-wing aircraft on the other ship of the class, Admiral Kuznetsov, are essentially constrained to air superiority operations. Were Varyag to have become operational with the Soviet, Ukrainian, or Russian Navy, it would have also carried out anti-submarine warfare (ASW) operations, as well as carrying anti-ship missiles.
Sold at auction[edit]
In April 1998, Ukrainian Trade Minister Roman Shpek announced the winning bid of $20 million from Chong Lot Travel Agency Ltd., a Hong Kong-based company, which proposed to tow Varyag out of the Black Sea, through the Suez Canal and around southern Asia to Macau, where they would moor the ship and convert it into a floating hotel and casino, similar to the Kiev in Tianjin and Minsk at Minsk World in Shenzhen.[8]
Before the auction was closed, officials in Macau had warned Chong Lot that they would not be permitted to berth Varyag in the harbor. The sale was carried out anyway. Chong Lot is owned by Chin Luck (Holdings) Company of Hong Kong. Four of Chin Luck's six board members live in Yantai, China, where a major Chinese Navy shipyard is located. Chin Luck's chairman is a former career military officer with the People's Liberation Army.[8]
Transfer to China[edit]
In mid-2000, the Dutch International Transport Contractors tugboat Suhaili with a Filipino crew was hired to take Varyag under tow. Chong Lot could not get permission from Turkey to transit the dangerous Bosphorus strait; under the Montreux Treaty of 1936 Turkey has obligations to permit free passage, but has certain sovereignty and refusal rights. The hulk spent 16 months under commercial tow circling in the Black Sea. High-level PRC government ministers conducted negotiations in Ankara on Chong Lot's behalf, offering to allow Chinese tourists to visit cash-strapped Turkey if the travel agency's ship were allowed to pass through the straits. On November 1, 2001, Turkey finally relented from its position that the vessel posed too great a danger to the bridges of Istanbul, and allowed the transit.[citation needed]
Varyag was escorted by twenty-seven vessels, including eleven tug boats and three pilot boats, and took six hours to transit the strait; most large ships take an hour and a half. The Russian press reported that sixteen pilots and 250 seamen were involved.[citation needed] At 11:45 a.m. on November 2, the hulk completed its passage and made for Gallipoli and Çanakkale at 5.8 knots (10.7 km/h; 6.7 mph). It passed through the Dardanelles without incident.[14]
On November 3, Varyag was caught in a force 9 gale and broke adrift while passing the Greek island of Skyros. Sea rescue workers tried to re-capture the hulk, which was drifting toward the island of Euboea. The seven-member crew (three Russians, three Ukrainians and one Filipino) remained on board as six tugboats tried to re-establish their tow. After many failed attempts to reattach the lines, a Greek coast guard rescue helicopter landed on Varyag and picked up four of the seven crew. One tug managed to make a line fast to the ship later in the day, but high winds severely hampered efforts by two other tugs to secure the ship. On November 6, Aries Lima (reported as both Dutch and Portuguese), a sailor from the tug Haliva Champion, died after a fall while attempting to reattach the tow lines. On November 7, the hulk was taken back under tow and progress resumed at about three knots.[citation needed]
The Suez Canal does not permit passage of "dead" ships — those without their own on-board power source — so the hulk was towed through the Strait of Gibraltar and around the Cape of Good Hope, then subsequently through the Straits of Malacca. The tugs towing the hulk maintained an average speed of 6 knots (11 km/h) over the 15,200-nautical-mile (28,200 km) journey, calling for bunkers and supplies at Piraeus, Greece; Las Palmas, Canary Islands; Maputo, Mozambique; and Singapore en route. They entered Chinese waters on February 20, 2002, and arrived March 3 at Dalian Shipyard in northeastern China. Although China stated that Varyag would be a casino, Chong Lot was not awarded new casino licenses in February 2002 by Macau. The hulk was tied up at Dalian. The total cost of acquiring the hulk was over $30 million: $25 million to the Ukrainian government for the hull, nearly $500,000 in transit fees, and some $5 million for the towing.[citation needed]
Modernization and refit[edit]
In 2008, Robert Karniol, the Asia editor of Jane's Defence Weekly, said: "The Chinese haven't seen this type of carrier before and it could be very useful to them. They are trying to vacuum up as much know-how as they can".[15] Liu Huaqing, a senior admiral of the PLAN and proponent of naval modernization, has spoken of the 21st century as the "century of the sea" and called for naval modernization over several decades.[4] At the same time, there has been resistance within the PLAN towards Liu Huaqing's vision for an extensive Chinese navy, leading to constant debates between developing aircraft carriers and submarines.[4]
The Varyag was moved in early June 2005 to a dry dock at Dalian (38°56′06″N 121°36′51″E / 38.935°N 121.6141°E). Her hull was sandblasted and scaffolding erected around her. Her island was painted in a red marine primer that is used to treat corroded metal. On October 24, 2006, the Kommersant online daily newspaper reported that Russia planned to sell up to 50 Su-33 fighters to China through Rosoboronexport, in a $2.5 billion deal. In March 2009 Moskovskij Komsomolets reported that these negotiations had collapsed over Russian fears that China might begin producing cheaper export versions of the Su-33 with Chinese avionics and systems, undercutting Russian exports, in the same way as with the J-11B (Chinese version of the Su-27).[16]
Jane's Fighting Ships had previously stated that the ship would possibly be named Shi Lang and assigned pennant number 83. Jane's noted that both the name and pennant number were unconfirmed. Shi Lang was a Ming-Qing Dynasty admiral who defeated Koxinga's descendants' navy and conquered Taiwan in 1683.[17] Jane's Navy International noted in October 2007 that "refurbishment work and fitting out is continuing and the vessel is expected to begin initial sea trials in 2008".[18] At the end of 2008, the Asahi Shimbun reported that the carrier was "nearing completion".[19] On April 27, 2009 the carrier was reported to have been moved into another dry dock, "apparently to install engines and other heavy equipment".[20] A new radar mast was installed on the superstructure by December 15, 2009.[21]
In 2009, at the Wuhan Naval Research facilities near Huangjia Lake in the south western suburbs of Wuhan, the PLAN constructed a full scale logistics and training deck and island mock-up.[22][23]
Sensors that have been observed are Type 348 active electronically scanned array (AESA) Radar (4 arrays) and Sea Eagle radar. Weapons observed have been the Type 1030 CIWS, and the FL-3000N missile system. It has also been observed that the old anti-ship missile tubes have been plugged and will not be used, thus freeing up more internal space for hangar or storage use. Russia plans to do the same when it modernizes its sister ship Kuznetsov.[24] The Kamov Ka-31 has been confirmed as purchased and operational with the PLAN, and may form the Airborne early warning and control basis for the ship's air wing.[25]
On June 8, 2011, the Chief of the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army, Gen. Chen Bingde confirmed that Beijing was building an aircraft carrier, marking the first acknowledgement of the ship's existence from China's armed forces. He said that the refurbished Soviet carrier "is being built, but has not been completed." The ship would be used for training and as a model for a future indigenously-built ship. Qi Jianguo, assistant to the chief of the PLA's general staff said "All of the great nations in the world own aircraft carriers — they are symbols of a great power."[26] On July 27, 2011, the Chinese Defense Ministry announced it was refitting the vessel for "scientific research, experiment and training."[11]
Sea trials and handover[edit]
|Wikinews has related news: China sends its first aircraft carrier to sea
On 10 August 2011, the ex-Varyag began sea trials. An RSIS analyst noted that China still had a long way to go to make her operational, but was determined to do so.[27] On 15 August 2011, she docked in Dalian, completing her first four-day sea trial.[28] On 29 November 2011 the carrier left port for her second set of trials.[29][30] In December 2011 the ship was photographed by satellite while undertaking sea trials.[31] The carrier completed her eighth sea trial between 7 June and 21 June 2012 and returned to Dalian. In July 2012, the ship set out for the longest sea trials thus far, 25 days, and there was speculation that this would have involved testing the launching and recovery of aircraft.[32]
According to the China Times, the carrier completed sea trials in early August 2012 and loaded Shenyang J-15 aircraft and KJ-88, YJ-83K, and YJ-91 missiles in preparation for weapons systems trials.[33] Reuters analysis suggests the role of the ship will be mostly training and evaluation ahead of the building of domestic carriers, with only a limited operational role. Flight control software, avionics, weapons and radars remain to be developed. Reuters reports PLA officers stating the carrier is far from operational with extensive further trials and exercises required.[34]
On 23 September 2012, the aircraft carrier was handed over to the People's Liberation Army Navy, and was commissioned on 25 September 2012.[4][35] Currently, there is no official confirmation on any operational aircraft on the carrier,[36] however some aircraft were identified inside the hangars according to a Chinese news report.[37] Further, a Chinese Navy pilot successfully landed his J-15 jet fighter on the carrier deck, performing an arrested landing with a tailhook.[38][39][40] At the commissioning ceremony, the carrier was officially named Liaoning.[4][41] The ship was named in honour of the Liaoning province, in which she was retrofitted.[4][42]
On 26 December 2012, the People's Daily reported that it will take 4 to 5 years for the Liaoning to reach full capacity, mainly due to training and coordination which will take significant amount of time for Chinese PLA Navy to complete as this is the first aircraft carrier in their possession.[43] As it is currently a training ship, Liaoning is not assigned to any of China's operation fleets.[44]
On 7 April 2014, U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel became the first foreign visitor to take a tour of the Liaoning. The tour was part of a trip to China to discuss cybersecurity and address China's military buildup in the East China Sea. Secretary Hagel had asked to see the ship in early 2014, and the request was accepted a few weeks before his arrival. Hagel and a small number of his staff toured the vessel for two hours at Yuchi Naval Base where he observed the medical facilities, living quarters, flight deck, bridge, and flight control station. They received a briefing about the carrier and also had refreshments with junior officers. The Pentagon said that Secretary Hagel was pleased that he was able to visit the Liaoning and was impressed by the professionalism of the officers and crew.[45]
Aircraft handling[edit]
On 4 November 2012, the People's Liberation Army website (Chinese: 中国军网) reported that J-15s had performed carrier touch-and-go training.[46][47] On 25 November 2012, China announced that J-15s had made five successful arrested landings on Liaoning.[48][49][50][51]
In June 2013, a second round of flight tests began on board Liaoning, with personnel from the fleet air arm of the Brazilian Navy providing carrier training support to the Chinese Navy.[52][not in citation given] Five Chinese pilots were certified the next month for carrier operations.[53][better source needed]
The U.S. Department of Defense notes that the J-15 will have below normal range and armament when operating from the carrier, due to limits imposed by the ski-jump takeoff and arrested carrier landings.[54]

Man banned from entering Bewdley street
4:37pm Friday 31st January 2014 in News
A MAN has been banned from entering a Bewdley street after his CRASBO came into effect upon being released from prison.
The two year criminal anti-social behaviour order (CRASBO) given to Brett Dunn, 24, of no fixed address, prevents him from setting foot in Belverdere Crescent.
The order was granted in November and came into effect today following his release from prison for burglary and criminal damage at his parents' home and for committing other offences in that street.
It runs until November, 2016 and if Dunn breaches the order he could be jailed for up to five years.
Dunn has been known to police since he was 13 and has 29 convictions for various offences.
Kidderminster magistrates were told Dunn's anti-social behaviour was mainly committed in Belvedere Crescent, often causing disturbance in the street and annoyance to the residents, who were distressed at his presence there.
Jenny Willems, community harm co-ordinator at West Mercia Police, said: "Dunn had been seen throwing stones and kicking the windows of his parents' home and car and there are also reports of him being disorderly in the street.
"The order does not ban Dunn from having contact with his parents but they will have to meet away from the home address to protect other residents from behaviour which causes them alarm, harassment and distress."

text: I'm not going to watch the Ann Coulter video but I would imagine she is referring to the concept of "radiation hormesis". I don't know much about the evidence for it, just that it competes with the prevailing no-threshold model for the potential harm of any dose of radiation. There is an article on Wikipedia on radiation hormesis, which I won't look down on unless others want to offer better sources to get some background info on it. I find the concept of hormesis in general quite fascinating. We had a brief mention of it in one of my classes, and it refers to the possible phenomenon that exposure to low stress or harm can actually produce some benefit. My professor told us (according to my notes) that in Hiroshima's close vicinities, there was a high incidence of tumors and general all-cause mortality rates (if you weren't killed right away), but a little further out, the life expectancy of the population was actually higher than that of populations even further away from the site. One proposed mechanism is that the body's protective measures are being stimulated by short-term exposure. Now, my prof emphasized it's the ACUTE radiation exposure that has been linked, although the Wikipedia article on radiation hormesis specifies that it's the chronic exposure. Exercise, as a kind of physiological stress, can be considered another example of hormesis. I don't know whether it deserves to be classified as acute or chronic, however. Daily exercise is what confers major benefits, not isolated strenuous workouts once every couple months, but it's not the same kind of stress as career-related ongoing stress from a job over decades, which is usually considered bad. I would lean towards classifying exercise as regularly scheduled acute stress. Low daily intake of alcohol has been considered possibly beneficial for cardiovascular health, although we all know that alcohol in general is a toxic substance to the body and binge drinking is terrible for you! Broccoli and related greens like brussels sprouts, kale, etc. contain a substance (is it sulforaphane, or indole-3-carbinol, I don't remember, or maybe it's both) that is actually a kind of plant toxin, but it's been posited as an anti-cancer/anti-tumorigenic substance because of perhaps how the body reacts. Lots of other substances, like cigarette smoke or coffee, induce increased levels of liver enzymes which promote more efficient detoxification. I'm definitely not telling anyone to start smoking (or to intentionally expose themselves to higher levels of radiation), but it's kinda cool that it happens. In one observational study, regular coffee drinkers were associated with having lower rates of liver cancer. Really neat stuff.

Meredith Harris teaches English and Drama at Fox Creek High School.
"When I was in school and younger, I was always the one helping out my friends," she says. "And they came to me for help with their homework and that was something that I really enjoyed. I always loved school as well. I used to cry when my sister would do her homework and I didn't have any to do. I was always passionate about school and a dork and I loved it and I just kind of knew that I wanted that to be a part of my life."
When she's not in here, Ms. Harris is working on Fox Creek pageants, the yearbook, or teaching homebound students.
"It's really nice to be able to see the students in an atmosphere outside the classroom, although the classroom's very important," she says. "It's just extra time to be able to build those relationships and to have fun and just enjoy them and get to know them on a more personal level."
Harris has only been at this for 5 years. Her fellow faculty have already voted her teacher of the year at Fox Creek. And she's not through being a student. Meredith is working on her masters.
"I just think that's important for me to gain some more knowledge and furthering my career," she says.
A career that will likely be spent helping kids like these become successful citizens.
"I think that to get into teaching you have to be passionate about it. You don't get into it for the pay or the benefits. I'm passionate about having relationships with my students. I think you have to have a good rapport with them to be able to be an effective teacher. I enjoy them. "

A new mission for the network block device
You don't need Samba or NFS to support a diskless client. A remote block device can help improve performance and efficiency. We'll show your how.
Experts are well aware that the traditional PC networking model wastes valuable disk space with redundant data storage. Desktop computers typically have one or more local hard disks, although the operating system and the applications that run on the desktop may be identical throughout the organization. An alternative to this traditional approach is to use centralized data management with diskless clients. The diskless client option assumes fast and reliable network connections and powerful servers.

Take Me Out scarier than mountain biking, claims daredevil Sam
2:20pm Tuesday 20th November 2012 in News By James Cox
A MOUNTAIN biking daredevil said appearing on Take Me Out was scarier than performing bike stunts.
Sam Pilgrim, 22, was put through his paces by 30 glamorous girls on the ITV dating show on Saturday.
Descending down the infamous love-lift, Sam, of Sutton Park Avenue, Colchester, made an instant impression with every single contestant keeping their light on.
He eventually bagged a date to the fictional Isle of Fernandos with 22-year-old scouse stunner, Samantha.
For more gossip, and to find out what activities they got up to on Fernandos, see Tuesday's Gazette.

A Lebanon school is seeing double many times over.
Castle Heights Elementary has multiple sets of twins.
"We got some boy-girl twins. We got some identical twins. We have some fraternal twins," said Principal Terry Trice.
The school has more than double the usual duos.
Among 600 students, there are 15 sets of twins. Eight of those are in the first grade.
"Two years ago when they were registering for kindergarten, [it] seemed like every other person that come up was a twin," Trice said.
"I've been teaching for 15 years and I have never seen more than one or two sets in a school," added Guidance Counselor Laura Cromer.
Nashville's News 2 tried to wrangle the teams of two for a little double talk.
The most popular topic was age.
"He's two minutes older than me," Aris Gonzales said of her twin Isaiah.
"I'm five minutes older," Samantha Mosley bragged of her life experience over brother Sawyer.
"I'm ten minutes older," Reed Daley said of his age over fraternal twin Ethan.
The siblings talked about what they liked and what they didn't like about being a twin.
"Sometimes we have tickle fights," Bobby Harris said of he and his identical twin brother Johnny.
"We joke people and they get mixed up with us and we don't like it," admitted Hannah and Layla Covington, also identical.
Despite wearing matching clothes for our interview, third-graders Mindy and Mandy Jones and Abbey and Harlie Nehus said they don't always dress alike and prefer their clothing be different.
Hannah and Hailey Evetts, fourth-graders, didn't agree on whether they liked being a twin.
Hannah said, "No [because] when I'm in a good mood and she's in a bad mood, she'll yell at me for no reason sometimes."
Hailey said, "Yes, [because] I just like that she can help me with my homework if I don't know it."
Both smiled about their answers.
Isaiah Gonzales was shy in front of our cameras, but his twin sister spoke proudly of their special bond.
"We usually like to play each other," she said. "We feel like best friends almost all the time."
Other twins were in sync on why being a twin isn't always double the fun.
"Sometimes I ask for a piggyback ride," said first-grader Samantha Sawyer. "And I usually don't give it to her. I just dump her off my back," finished brother Sawyer Mosley.
"He'll say that I'm not listening in class if I have any homework," said fifth-grader Lora Smith. Her brother quickly followed, "Because, I mean, it's easy stuff."
The twins cover nearly every grade level from kindergarten to fifth grade.
The youngest set is Bobby and Johnny Harris, six-year-old identical twins.
When asked to spell their last name, they replied in unison with heads swaying , "H-A-R-R-I-S."
The chatty, smiley pair admitted that teachers and even parents can't often tell them apart.
"One [time my mom]," Johnny stumbled, "she said, 'Hey, Bobby!' But I wasn't Bobby. I was Johnny."
When asked if he confused his mom on purpose, he only laughed.
Cromer is not surprised by the confusion.
"It's very hard to tell who is who," she said. "I'll call 'em by their last name most of the time."
The twins are described as goofy with each other and protective of each other.
School leaders usually suggest the twins be separated into different classrooms to keep the dominant twin from being overbearing and to allow the non-dominant twin to find individual strengths and personalities.
"We always let the parents decide. They know their kids better than any of us," said Cromer. "[But] the parents will usually come back and thank us for suggesting that."
Castle Heights Elementary is part of the Lebanon Special Schools District. The school's twin numbers are a phenomenon.
According the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2010, the number of twin births in the United States was 408,439. The likelihood of having a twin is only three percent.
Compare the statistics to those at Castle Heights, where five percent of the school's student body is a twin. One in five first graders are a twin.
That's 15 pairs, uniquely the same and uniquely different.

UPDATE: Police officer breaks hand in hoax search for 'body' of missing man
Updated 5:38pm Wednesday 30th April 2014 in News
A FEMALE police officer fell on rocks and broke her hand while investigating what police believe to be a hoax telephone call.
Searches are continuing today for missing man John Allen, 76, of Preston, who was last seen entering Ravenglass estuary on Monday.
Police revealed that they received a report at around 9.50am today that a body had been spotted at Beach Road, St Bees.
But after investigating the area, nothing was found and they now believe this to be a hoax phone call.
The call was made from a public phone box in St Bees, said police.

Inspector Mark Wear said: "We are shocked and saddened that someone has wasted the time and resources of those searching for Mr Allen by making a hoax phone call.
"We ask that only people with credible information contact us in order to not detract from an active missing person search.
"On top of the wasted time and resources a female officer fell on rocks on the beach and broken bones in her hand whilst searching. She was treated by paramedics at the scene and was taken to hospital.
"The family of Mr Allen have been advised that this was a hoax call and we are continuing to search for their loved one."
Mr Allen is described as 5ft 8", of slim build and is bald. He was wearing a green fleece, green suede trousers and walking boots.
Underwater searches have been taking place since Mr Allen went missing. Mountain rescuers, coastguard, Cumbria Fire and Rescue, Cumbria Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) officers, the National Police Air Service and police have all be involved.
Insp. Wear added: "We appeal for anyone with information on the person who made this hoax call as we would like to speak to them about the incident and the consequences of making such a call. Anyone with any information can contact Police on 101 quoting log number 54 of the April 30."
Anyone with any genuine information that can assist in finding Mr Allen is asked to contact Cumbria Police on 101 and ask for the duty sergeant at Whitehaven Police Station quoting log number 59 of April 28.

Cooperstown Crier
---- — From the Otsego Herald
for Saturday, June 26, 1813
Compiled, with comments
by HUGH C. MacDOUGALL
US Frigate Chesapeake Captured
Particulars of the Engagement between the Chesapeake and Shannon Frigates. Halifax [British Nova Scotia], June 9.
It is with pleasure we congratulate our readers on the capture of the American frigate Chesapeake, commanded by Captain Lawrence, by his magesty's ship Shannon, Capt. Broke, which arrived here on Sunday the 6th inst after an action of eleven minutes....
[Capt. Broke hoped] that the Chesapeake frigate, finding the Shannon was cruising alone off Boston, would come out, and give her battle — nor were our tars disappointed — early in the morning of [June first] the Shannon stood in close to Boston lighthouse and observed the Chesapeake lying at anchor, with royal yards across, and apparently ready for sea.
The British colors were then hoisted on board the Shannon, and she hove to, near the land. At 9 a.m. the enemy's frigate was observed to loosen her sails, and fire a gun; at half past twelve she weighed anchor, and stood out of the harbor, when the Shannon filled, and, under easy sail edged off the land, followed by the Chesapeake; at 4, shortened sail, at 5, hove to, with the topsails aback, for fear the enemy would not bring her to action before dark.
In 20 minutes after, the Chesapeake sheered within musket shot of the Shannon, still standing towards her in such a way as left our tars in uncertainty, which side of the ship she intended to engage.
At half past 5, however, she luffed up on the Shannon's weather quarter, and on her foremast coming in a line with the Shannon's miz[z]en, the latter fired her after gun, and her others successively, until the enemy came directly abreast, when the Chesapeake fired her whole broadside, which the Shannon immediately returned; and here broadside to broadside the action commenced.
In 5 minutes the Chesapeake fell along side the Shannon, & was boarded in her tops, as well as on her decks by our gallant countrymen, and in eleven minutes from the commencement of the action, her three ensigns were hauled down, and soon afterwards replaced with the English flag over them — her decks cleared of the dead, the wounded taken below, a great proportion of the prisoners removed out of her; and accompanied by the Shannon she was steering for this port.
COMMENT: In British and Canadian eyes (and this is, of course, a British report), the victory of the Shannon over the Chesapeake avenged the earlier ship-to-ship victories of the American frigate Constitution. The U.S. Captain James Lawrence (1781-1813) died in the engagement, after giving his famous (but in this case unheeded) admonition of "Don't Give Up the Ship," which was to become an American naval battle cry. British Captain Sir Philip Bowes Vere Broke (1776-1841), who was wounded, became an instant British hero and was created a Baronet and given a gold medal. A long ballad about the fight, "The Chesapeake and the Shannon" is still sung in Canada, beginning:
"The Chesapeake so bold, out of Boston we've been told, / Came to take the British frigate neat and handy-o, / All the people of the port, they came out to see the sport, / And the bands were playing Yankee Doodle dandy-o ...
"The British frigate's name, for which the purpose came, / Of cooling Yankee courage neat and handy-o, / Was the Shannon - Captain Broke, / All her crew were hearts of oak, \ And at fighting they're allowed to be the dandy-o ..."
New Lawyer in Town
S. O. RUNYAN, Attorney & Counsellor at Law, has opened his office next door East of the dwelling of Dr. Russell, in the Village of Cooperstown. June 22, 1812.
COMMENT: He may not have stayed long, as I have been unable to find any trace of him.
Two American Generals Captured
Head-Quarters, Fort George, June 6.
Hon. gen. John Armstrong, Secretary of War
SIR — I have received an express from the head of the lake [Ontario] this evening, with intelligence, that our troops commanded by the brigadier-general [John] Chandler were attacked at 2 o'clock this morning by the whole of the British and Indian forces, and by some strange fatality, although our loss was small (not exceeding thirty) and the enemy completely routed and driven from the field, both Brigadier-Generals Chandler and [William] Winder were taken prisoner. They had advanced to ascertain the situation of a company of artillery when the attack commenced.
General [John] Vincent is reported to be among the killed of the enemy. Col. Clark was mortally wounded, and fell into our hands, with sixty prisoners of the 49th British regiment. The whole loss of the enemy is two hundred and fifty. They sent in a flag [of truce], with a request to bury their dead. General [Morgan] Lewis, accompanied by brigadier-general Boyd goes on to take the command of the advanced troops.
COMMENT: This was the Battle of Stoney Creek. After losing Fort George to the Americans, the British retreated to Burlington Heights at the western end of Lake Ontario, from which they launched a night attack against a pursuing American force. It was a confused fight, from which the Americans eventually withdrew after losing 16 dead, 38 wounded and 100 captured. British losses were 23 killed, 136 wounded and 52 captured.
Brig. Gen. William Winder (1775-1824) of Maryland was more of a politician than a soldier, as was Gen. John Chandler (1762-1841) of Maine — they got lost in the battle. British Gen. John Vincent (1764-1848) was not killed (though he suffered concussion after falling off his horse). The overall American commander, General Henry Dearborn (1751-1829), was eventually sacked for this and other failures.

Have you heard of the "Freshman15"? It's quite common for college students to gain a few pounds.
With that in mind, there's a research project underway at Minot State University to help students stay fit, and eat better. Here's this week's Eye on Health.
Students at Minot State University have a beautiful new wellness center to work out in. That's a plus for the 130 students who have signed up to be a part of a new research project underway thru Dr. Terry Eckmann's fitness and physical education classes. The 8 week project involves tracking fitness, and nutrition though something called a Fitbook. The creator of the Fitbook was in Minot to launch the project.
Angela Manzanares, Fitlosophy "It's a 12-week journal, that helps in the process of setting goals, it breaks it down on a week by week basis"
Angela created the Fitlosophy in 2008, and she has had a great deal of success. It sells for 22.95, it's sold in Target stores nationwide, and there is also international distribution. The easy - to carry book, is a usable way to keep track of goals. The word calorie is not used. It's about getting the right foods in your body each day, and keeping active.
Angela "a lot of times we forget all the things we need to do to stay fit"
Along with the fitbook, there's an AP, so that you can plug in fitness and nutrition information on your phone. There are four groups of students involved in the MSU project. Some will use the Fitbook, others the AP, some will use both, and others will use nothing.
Angela "what we are trying to figure out is the component of technology, we haven't really looked into that
At the end of the 8 weeks, results will show if these products help the students stay healthier. For Eye on Health I'm Carla Burbidge.

Today we share a post by Linda Kekelis of Techbridge.
Techbridge role model, Lyn Gomes, experienced the joy of tinkering from her early maker experiences. Lacking her own tool kit, she would "borrow" her father's eyeglass screwdrivers to repair the answering machine. This gave her the confidence to work with larger tools and take on projects like repairing her first car and building a Motorized Barcalounger. What she didn't know is how they would shape the direction of her life. Maker projects set her on the path to finding a career that has provided her with a lifetime of personal and professional rewards. Like Lyn, many engineers describe tinkering and taking things apart when they recount their earliest interest in their field.
Missed opportunities
Unfortunately, many kids don't have the chance to tinker at home or work with tools in machine shop classes. Kids today have less time to work with their hands and less chance to wonder how things work or design and build projects that answer their own questions.
For girls and underrepresented minorities the chances of making things with their hands are even more remote. We hear from girls in Techbridge that their brothers get building blocks and Lego kits as birthday and holiday gifts. Their brothers work on home improvement projects or car repairs. It's not that girls don't want to work on these projects but that they don't ask and their parents don't think of inviting them to get involved.
Making time for making
Out-of-school time experiences can provide the time and space for making. After-school and summer programs offer kids the chance to try their hand at soldering and learning about circuits or taking apart toys and learning about gears.
Techbridge was launched in 2000 to inspire girls in science, technology, and engineering. In after-school and summer programs, Techbridge girls work on projects that introduce them to the joys of making. The electronic game board and the tilt lantern are just two of the maker projects that Techbridge girls have built. Through these projects, the girls work with tools, troubleshoot, and develop confidence and perseverance that serve them well in their academic and career paths.
Techbridge serves 500 girls annually in grades 5 through 12, primarily working in under-resourced communities. Evaluation results demonstrate the program's success: last year, 95% of participating girls knew more about how things work, 89% felt more confident trying new things, and 95% believed that engineering is a good career for women.
Techbridge girls got introduced to one of their first maker experiences by Lyn. Lyn arrived on her first visit with a box filled with hair dryers. She invited the girls to take apart the hair dryers and see what they could learn. Lyn remembered her own early experiences with reverse engineering and offered our girls the same opportunity to learn first-hand how things work. It also gave them a safe setting to develop the fine motor skills associated with using tools.
"Can I really take it apart? Is it all right to break it?" One of the sixth graders wanted reassurance before she took apart the hairdryer. When this girl tried to figure out what made a curling iron work by taking it apart at home her mother hadn't been too pleased. Lyn assured the girl that it was all right if the hair dryer got broken in the process.
Lyn used this hands-on activity as a way to introduce engineering. The girls learned about the different kinds of engineers who design and build hairdryers and other products in their lives. They also discovered the joy of figuring out how things work. Lyn invited the group to come up with design plans to improve upon the hairdryers. There was no shortage of inventive ideas—like a filter to collect hair and a dispenser to produce fragrance. By the end of the afternoon the girls learned that household appliances like a hair dryer aren't as complicated as they imagined and that engineering can be a very rewarding career.
Be a role model
Don't let a maker project be a missed opportunity. What made the experience of taking apart those hairdryers so impactful was Lyn. Lyn communicated her passion for engineering and for making. She was genuinely interested in the girls and it showed. During her visit Lyn moved around and talked to each girl, connecting with the girls on a personal level. For the girl who didn't have the confidence to raise her hand and ask a question before the group, Lyn's one-on-one time was especially helpful. All the while Lyn showed how cool working with tools and doing maker projects can be.
When you engage kids in a maker activity, remember that you can be a role model. From our experiences, we have a recipe for success that we'd like to share.
- Be personal and passionate. Kids are eager to hear about your work and also about your hobbies, pets, family, and friends. If you happen to be an engineer, you can dispel those stereotypes about "nerdy engineers" by sharing stories that reveal your passions and making personal connections with the group. Remember that kids get excited about engineering and technology when you share your own passion for your work and interest in making.
- Explain why your work matters. We hear from kids how they want to make the world a better place, and they might not know how tinkering and technology can do that. It's up to you to share how your work matters and helps the environment and people. As engineers and scientists we help people, we just may never meet the people we help like a doctor would.
- Offer resources and guidance. Where can they go to tinker and work with tools? In our community, there are libraries that lend tools. Find resources like a library or community center where kids can work on maker projects. Talk about the importance of summer programs and after-school clubs in your own development and encourage them to pursue making interests.
We know that not every girl or boy who makes will grow up to be an engineer, but we hope that each will experience the joys of tinkering and the confidence to make their own discoveries.
We have seen first-hand how impactful making can be for kids, especially for girls and those who are underrepresented in engineering and technology. There are lots of kids that need a supportive adult to encourage them in making. We invite you to get involved and reach out to kids in your community.
You have the power to inspire the next generation of Makers.
This post was written by Linda Kekelis, Executive Director at Techbridge, who is discovering the Maker within herself with a little help from her staff and the girls served by Techbridge.To learn more about Techbridge, visit techbridgegirls.org.

Brawl breaks out over towed car; 3 arrested, 1 injured
Police encountered two separate fights involving five peopl when they arrived at 405 Bridge St. about 6:30 p.m.
Benjamin Garcia, 32, of 169 Beech Hill Road, allegedly had picked up Paul Lavalliere, 55, of 258 Cartier St. and was carrying him toward a concrete wall when officers stopped him.
Other officers were called to the scene who put a stop to another fight allegedly between Xiomara Arroyo, 29, of 405 Bridge St., Apt. A, Garrett Barry, 22, of 405 Bridge St., Apt. B, and a third unidentified person.
The fight began when Carlos Miranda-Arroyo, Arroyo's husband, accused Barry, his neighbor, of having Miranda-Arroya's car towed from the premises.
Miranda-Arroyo and Barry got into an argument outside the apartment building and police said Miranda-Arroyo punched his neighbor in the face.
Soon after, police said Barry saw Xiomara Arroyo fighting with his mother, Tammy Barry, 47, of 409 Cartier St. Xiomara Arroyo told police Garrett Barry then punched her in the face. Police said she was transported to the Elliot Hospital for treatment of significant, but not life-threatening injuries.
Police arrested Garcia, Garrett Barry and Miranda-Arroyo. Garcia is charged with felony riot, simple assault and resisting arrest. His bail is $5,000 cash/surety.
Miranda-Arroyo was arrested for felony riot, with bail set at $5,000 cash/surety.
Barry is facing felony charges of riot and second degree assault. His bail is $20,000.

A 13-year-old East High School student suffered first-degree burns after two teens dumped gasoline on him and set him on fire.
The boy was rushed to Children's Mercy Hospital after the flames ignited. His face and hair were burned, according to police.
The boy was walking home from East High when he was accosted by two other boys about 3 p.m. Tuesday.
He said he made it to his home on Quincy Avenue when one suspect physically barred him from entering. The second suspect grabbed a red gallon gasoline can and said, "This is what you get."
The second teen then used a light to ignite the gasoline, which "produced a large fireball burning the face and hair" of the victim, according to a Kansas City Police Department report.
The boy's 36-year-old father said he wants to prosecute the suspects.
The boy is white. The two suspects are black. Police are reportedly investigating whether this was a hate crime.
Kansas City Police Department Detective Stacey Taylor said detectives were concerned about damage to the boy's eyes and lungs. He said this was a particularly heinous crime.
"It was pretty bad stuff," he said.
Police are asking for the public's help in locating the two suspects who are described as being around 16 years old. One was wearing a blue beanie, blue jacket and blue-green Nike Air Jordans with #23. The second suspect was wearing a black hoodie and black sunglasses with silver on the side.
If you have any information, call the TIPS Hotline at 816-474-TIPS.
East High is at 1924 Van Brunt Blvd.

If your explanation of recessions relies on any kind of shock, financial or otherwise, then you don't have a theory. A shock is something unexpected; it's unexpected because no one has enough economic knowledge or foresight to predict it. Therefore shocks are random events, or black swans.
So claiming that shocks cause recessions is no different from saying @#$% happens! No wonder so many people are developing allergic reactions to anything called economics.

_Reconstitution of Meaning: MARC Fields as Morphemes_
In considering the possibilities of making better use of the
intellectual content embedded in MARC fields in my review of the
potential application of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery in
Databases (KDD), it has occurred to me that such an an investigation
might prove useful if MARC fields were viewed as _morphemes_ [no no
morphine [:->]. The morpheme is considered by (many) linguists as a
basic unit of meaning within a language.
In the cataloging process, meaning is embedded within a defined
structure using acceptable rules of grammar (e.g. AACR2) - syntax if
you will [:->]. In such a process, a message about an individual work
is conveyed, using this grammar and an associated lexicon. Here the
physical 'meaning' and intellectual 'meaning' of an item are
translated into a message that is intended to describe the item and
its content.
While this process of bibliographic control has enabled users to
identify 'meaningful' items relevant to an information need, mos
existing and (even) New Age OPACS I've identified and compiled in my
Onion Patch (sm) clearinghouse at URL
do not, I believe, make full use of the meaning explicit or
implicit within these records.
To identify items that are most relevant to users [BTW: 'Relevance'
is a 'meaning-full' concept [:->]], we need to contemplate the
creation of OPACs that provide users (or allow users) to
'reconstitute' the meaning within these records. We need to develop
systems that can present users with items (i.e., records of cataloged
items within the OPAC) that best meet their needs using an 'optimal
syntax' determined by the 'meaningful' associations uncovered by a
Data Mining or a KDD process, or provide users with the ability to
select a different syntax (e.g. subject and publisher associations),
to identify that 'good book' on the subject. Likewise, we need to
provide users with the ability to 'cross-tabulate' associations within
MARC fields such that they be provided with a ranked listing of items
by publisher-author-call number, or call number-publisher, or subjec
heading-publisher, or other potentially meaningfull association of
their choosing. [I have sketched out a mock-up interface for this
function and will certainly let the list(s) know, when it's available]
In addition to associations revealed in the application of Data
Mining and KDD to an appropriate catalog database (e.g., the OCLC
cataloging database) or selected local OPAC database of peer groups
(e.g. RLG), as well as the desired associations of users themselves,
comprehensive log data should also reveal useful associations tha
might provide a new syntax, or enhance one already considered. [Here
circulation data would be very important, as would OPAC transaction
log data, as Larson has demonstrated in his study of subject access in
One could envision the application of the methods of Computation
Linguistics applied to MARC records or even (perhaps)
Transformational/Generative Grammar [:->] [Long Live Noam Chomsky!] !
Once again, as always, any reactions to such musings would be mos
welcome. [In particular, I am interested any literature relating to
the application of linguistic theories/practices to bibliographic and
MARC record structure.]

P.S. One could certainly apply these envisioned methodologies to
any Metadata regime (e.g. The Dublin Core, TEI, etc.).
