L to R R to L Alpha
A month ago, the community experienced the tragic loss of Craig Luebben. This route is a personal memorial for our friend, husband, daddy, partner, and local hero. I scoped this route several years ago, wondering how to access the overhanging stem corner at the top. During my guidebook research, I spotted some evidence of an ascent on the first pitch. Over beers one night, for some reason, Craig and I were discussing this wall. To my surprise, the ratty anchors I saw in the first hundred feet were his from a few years prior. He also had the vision of going all the way up but back-burnered the idea due to bigger and better things. Once I took an interest, however, he sparked, wanting to complete it with me, ground-up. Unfortunately we never got around to it.
Getting There
Big Bro Watching (BBW) starts left and around the corner of Solid Gold, identified by a green lichened slab. Park in front of the Doghouse, west side of Tunnel 5 (though you can see the route across the creek at the creekside parking). Approach as you would for Solid Gold. Once at the base, continue with the 4th class �Perverse Traverse� over the water. Follow the line of least resistance and watch for loose rock. If you feel uncomfortable soloing this traverse, rope up. After some exposed moves, a brushy ledge ramp continues to the slabby base of the route and comfortable staging ledge with single belay bolt, or belay in the gully at the base of the bolted route at a two bolt belay.
Wear helmets. We are tentatively giving this route an R rating mostly due to the adventurous character of the route. Though the hard parts are protected well and not sustained, there are occasional runouts on easy but loose/crumbly rock. Ratings are approximate. This is not your typical Clear Creek Canyon route and should not be taken lightly. Because we established the route ground-up, we didn�t clean the route that much other than the big stuff. There may still be plenty of crap that could come off on you and your partner. Fishermen and lookey-loos WILL be below you by the road or at the bank watching your epic ascent (probably wondering �how you got your ropes up there�). Use a 70m rope if you plan on retreating by rapping the route.
Route Description
FA and FFA pics here, and here.
(RECOMMENDED) top out, walk to the NE, and rap Solid Gold. Best to have previous knowledge of the SG rap location (they are right underneath a lone bonsai). Advantage of this is you don�t have to reverse the perverse-traverse, but you would have had to stash your stuff at the base of SG.
A multi-pitch adventure mindset, helmet, 70m rope, rack up to #3 Camalot including small wires, selection of stoppers, a few extras in the small to medium cams. Offset nuts and offset Aliens/MCs are helpful. There are a couple of spots I used a #3.5 Camalot. Bring draws, runners, biners, etc. All belays are 2 or 3 bolts except for the top.

As anticipated, the British government officially accused Iran of complicity in the targeting and killing of its troops in southern Iraq. However, the accusations are weak and clumsily constructed, to the point of being silly. The bomb technology that the British refer to is more than 50 years old, has been used in a variety of conflicts around the world, and is also known to have been in the possession of the former Iraqi military intelligence service.
The real concern is that the Blair government is using Iran as a smokescreen for its increasingly desperate plight in Iraq. The British dilemma in Iraq is simple but also intractable: they have devoted significant resources to the conflict, but have only marginal influence on the real decision-making (which is done by the Americans).
Moreover, there is every reason to believe that the United Kingdom is using the excuse of Iranian meddling in Iraq as a subterfuge for its own plans for a long-term intelligence presence in Iraq and as a device for applying further pressure on the Islamic Republic over the nuclear stand-off.
Odd accusations
The accusations of the British government are odd for principally four reasons. Firstly, the manner in which the accusations were
"The secret intelligence war between the two sides [Britain and Iran] in Iraq is currently manageable. Whether it remains that way depends, to a large extent, on how Britain manages its relations with Iran over a number of issues …"
Britain, Iran playing with Iraqi Shi'ite fire, ATol, Oct 1, 2005
announced to the world was unusual. They were first disclosed by an "anonymous" senior official to a group of correspondents in London on October 5.
The "anonymous" official claimed, in no uncertain terms, that Iran was helping to kill British troops by providing bomb technology to Shi'ite insurgents, possibly through the Lebanese Hezbollah. But the very next day, Prime Minister Tony Blair was more diplomatic about Iranian complicity, claiming that the evidence led either to Iran or its Lebanese militant allies Hezbollah, but adding, "We can't be sure of this."
There was also disquiet in the British military establishment, with the Guardian reporting on October 6, "Defense sources suggested that blaming the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps for supplying the explosives technology was going too far."
Secondly, bringing the Lebanese Hezbollah into the equation simply makes no sense. Iran has direct access to southern Iraq and, moreover, has many official representatives (not to mention hundreds of covert operatives) in the Basra area alone. Given this impressive presence, it is difficult to see why the Iranians would want to involve a Lebanese political party/militia in their dealings with Shi'ite forces in the south of Iraq. The British, it seems, have unwisely copied Israeli disinformation methodology. Indeed, whenever Israel levels an extraordinary allegation against Iran, it almost invariably involves the Lebanese Hezbollah.
Thirdly, the accusation that "rogue" elements in the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) are behind the transfer of technology seriously undermines the British government's position. Either the British know very little about Iranian security policy or they are deliberately employing a deceptive argument.
The fact is that there are no "rogue" elements in the IRGC. The IRGC is, first and foremost, an ideological military organization with its own independent command, comprised of ground, naval and air forces. This makes Iran the only country in the world to operate two completely independent military structures (ie, the regular military and the IRGC).
Moreover, aside from being a military organization, the IRGC has security/intelligence capabilities and other civilian infrastructure. For instance, the best specialized medical clinics in Iran (particularly those pertaining to dentistry and laser eye surgery) are owned and operated by the IRGC.
Overall, the IRGC directly employs up to 350,000 personnel, 120,000 of whom serve in its ground, naval and air forces. The IRGC is a vast organization, and as such it is subject to intense discipline.
The idea that "rogue" elements within this organization are actively engaged in undermining Iranian foreign policy is simply a non-starter. These deceptive arguments are usually deployed to buttress unsubstantiated accusations against the Islamic republic.
Last, but not least, the transfer of bomb technology (which is at the heart of the British government's accusations) simply makes no sense from a technical perspective. The technology in question (which involves specially shaped charges capable of penetrating armor) is up to 50 years old and there is nothing particularly "Iranian" about it.
It has been used in a variety of conflicts, notably in Sri Lanka, where it has been deployed by the Tamil Tigers. While it is true that the Lebanese Hezbollah deployed these types of devices against the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in southern Lebanon in the 1990s, it is equally true that the technology was widely known to the Istikhbarat, the former Iraqi military intelligence service.
In fact, the Istikhbarat closely tracked Iran's military relationship with Hezbollah, and had even sent a specialized team to Lebanon in 1995 to study Hezbollah tactics against the IDF. This expertise is being widely used by Iraqi Arab Sunni insurgents (who are mostly led by former Istikhbarat and Mukhabarat officers) against US forces in the western, central, north-central and northern regions of Iraq.
Given that this technology is widely available to and exploited by the Arab Sunni guerrilla movement, there is no reason why it should not travel further south to benefit the emerging Shi'ite insurgency against the British presence.
In any case, the circuitous route through which this old and well-known technology is supposed to have been transferred (ie from Iran to Hezbollah and then to the Iraqi Shi'ites) is implausible, if not downright spurious.
Iran strikes back
Taken aback by the British accusations, the Iranian government has hit back by implicating Britain in the twin bombings that occurred in Ahwaz (the capital of Iran's Khuzestan province) on October 15, killing four people. Although the Iranian government has provided no solid evidence to implicate the British, these accusations are not altogether extraordinary.
The consensus in Iran (both in the security/intelligence community and the media establishment) is that the bombings in Ahwaz, as well as six bombings in June, are the work of very small Arab separatist groups that are ultimately controlled by elements in the (former) Iraqi military intelligence service.
Privately, Iranian officials are worried that the events in Khuzestan signal the export of the Iraqi insurgency to Iran. But there is a British connection, albeit one which is not necessarily decisive. The Khuzestani Arab separatists (who call this southeastern Iranian province "Arabistan") were closely nurtured by the former Ba'athist government in Iraq and were an integral part of (former) Iraqi intelligence operations in Khuzestan. But they have also had a presence in Britain since the late 1970s.
Indeed, they seized the Iranian Embassy in 1980, prompting the British authorities to deploy the Special Air Services against them. But throughout much of the 1980s, Iranian Arab separatists were able to operate freely in the UK, even though the British authorities were well aware of their Iraqi intelligence connections. The atmosphere changed in 1990, after the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the end of the prolonged honeymoon between the West and Saddam Hussein.
Indeed, during a number of occasions in the 1990s, Iranian Arab separatists based in the UK were intercepted at Heathrow airport by UK security service (MI5) officers as they were about to board flights to locations such as Larnaka, Athens and Istanbul, where they would meet Iraqi intelligence officers.
The message from the British was clear: Iraqi intelligence activity on UK soil would not be tolerated (as it had been in the 1980s). But since the downfall of Saddam, Iranian Arab separatists are back in favor in London. They have met Jack Straw, the foreign secretary, on at least one occasion and the Iranian government alleges that many more secret meetings have taken place. Interestingly, Iranian Arab separatists have also been openly courted by the Canadian government.
None of this implicates the British government in the bombings in Ahwaz, but the very fact that UK officials are showing greater hospitality to elements which, at the very least, applaud these bombings, makes the Iranian government understandably nervous. Seen from this perspective, Iranian accusations pointing to British complicity in the bombings in Ahwaz have more merit than British accusations implicating Iran in the emerging Shi'ite insurgency.
Moreover, the Iranians are increasingly concerned over British intelligence activity in Khuzestan, despite the fact that the pattern of British military intelligence activity in the province since the summer of 2003 points to irregular, amateurish and in some cases completely pointless operations.
For all the legend erected around British intelligence over the past 100 years, on the ground in today's Iraq and Iran their methodology and operations are amateurish and least suited to generating quality long-term intelligence. While the British military in Iraq has been able to access useful short-term intelligence and has exploited it to quell any serious resistance to their increasingly unpopular presence, the wider UK intelligence community has failed to lay the foundations for a long-term intelligence presence in Iraq. However, the Iranians fear that as they stay longer in the region, the British will correct their mistakes and be able to operate more successfully.
In order to deter British penetration, the Iranians initially resorted to heavy-handed tactics. This was best exemplified by the seizure of three Royal Navy vessels and eight marines and sailors by IRGC naval units in the Arvand River (Shatt al-Arab) in June 2004. Although it is not clear if the marines had strayed into Iranian waters, the IRGC claimed that they had and subjected them to public humiliation.
The message to the British was clear: keep well away from Iran. According to journalistic sources in Tehran, over the past 16 months several British military intelligence operations have been thwarted by the IRGC, either right on the border with Iraq or inside the extreme eastern regions of Khuzestan.
In one case, it is claimed, the IRGC even detained two British soldiers (of Gujarati origin) who were presumed to be involved in a Force Research Unit (FRU) operation in Khuzestan. The IRGC wanted to publicly humiliate them, but was overruled by senior officials, who delivered the captured soldiers to the British Embassy in Tehran.
An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Hamid Reza Asefi, referring to Tehran's complaint that the UK had not provided evidence to support its accusations against Iran, recently stated: "We don't talk without proof and documentation."
This is probably a message to the UK government that any further accusations against Iran might be met by Iranian revelations on thwarted FRU operations in Khuzestan. In any case, accusations and counter-accusations (even if backed up with solid evidence) will have a significantly negative impact on already tense Anglo-Iranian relations.
British end game in Iraq?
Attacks against British soldiers in southern Iraq are likely to increase in the coming months. These attacks are primarily motivated by one factor alone: the British are no longer needed in southern Iraq. The south is largely peaceful and the security structures created by Shi'ite militias have proved highly effective.
Much of the tension between the UK military and the militias is rooted in the almost universal wish in the Shi'ite south that the British begin withdrawing immediately. While the British government has hinted that it might start withdrawing substantially from May 2006 onwards, no firm guarantees to this effect have been given to Iraqi authorities in the south.
But there is a deeper reason why Iraq is now such a dilemma for UK foreign policy. From a British perspective, the country has invested significant resources in the Iraq conflict, but has reaped very few benefits apart from consolidating the "special relationship" with the US.
Indeed, British prestige in the region and the wider world has declined since the war and the Iraq conflict may have even been the decisive factor that propelled four young British Muslim suicide bombers to attack their own country in July.
Instinctively, the Blair government wants to stay in Iraq as long as the Americans, if only to reap the final rewards of a "democratic" and "stable" Iraq. But evidence on the ground suggests that while a stable Iraq is, at best, 10 years away, a democratic Iraq may forever remain a neo-conservative fantasy.
From a wider geostrategic perspective, if the British government is hoping to apply pressure on Iran in the nuclear stand-off, then it has completely misread events in Tehran over the past few months. While this kind of pressure might have had an impact on the previous Mohammed Khatami government, the new government of President Mahmud Ahmadinejad is stridently nationalist and has made it clear that Iran will not make any concessions over its right to master the nuclear fuel cycle.
The message from the Ahmadinejad administration, and the Iranian nationalists who stand behind him, is clear: even if the British believe in their own propaganda there is not much that they can do about it.
Given this state of affairs, it is difficult to escape the conclusion that the British government has badly miscalculated. Indeed, if the British government wanted to portray itself as a key player in the nuclear stand-off, the uncompromising message from Tehran leaves little doubt that the UK is merely a pawn in an escalating geostrategic conflict between the Islamic Republic and the United States.

Palermo took the lead over Inter Milan after five minutes, it's snowing in Bologna, and Edinson Cavani has scored yet again. Just another normal Sunday in Serie A.
In the early match, Chiveo Verona broke the spirits of relegation battling Brescia, beating them 3-0 at their home ground. A brace for Sergio Pellissier sandwiched a goal by Davide Mandelli brought the Flying Donkeys into 10th in the table and caused more heartbreak for Brescia.
At least Brescia can take (very little) comfort in not being at the bottom of the table. That's where Bari dwell, with just 14 points. Currently the Galletti are down 2-1 to Cagliari, unable to handle Alessandro Matri, a brace from the forward coming within five minutes. Bari's goal was fortunate, coming from Stefano Okaka off a Michael Agazzi mistake. Agazzi atoned for his error by saving the Bari penalty kick that would've evened the score.
Lecce are trying their best to prove they're not Serie B bound, leading Cesena in this relegation six-pointer. Daniele Corvia takes credit for the goal and it's 1-0 Lecce.
In Genoa, Rodrigo Palacio put the home side ahead from the spot in the 16th minute, but Herman Crespo found an equalizer for Parma in the 32nd. After a Gabriel Paletta own goal, however, the visitors rather fell apart, and allowed Kakha Kaladze to stick one in as well, making it 3-1 Genoa.
On a soggy pitch in Naples, Edinson Cavani put Napoli ahead in the first fifteen minutes with an assist by Ezequiel Lavezzi. The home side continue to exert pressure on Sampdoria, but a 120 minute match midweek appears to have tired the partenopei. Fortunately for their hopes of the scudetto, Sampdoria defender Pietro Accardi brought Cavani down in the box. The Uruguayan scored from the spot and it's 2-0 Napoli at the break.
But the big story is occurring at the San Siro, where Palermo lead Inter Milan 2-0. Fabrizio Miccoli put the visitors ahead in the fourth minute, with Antonio Nocerino getting the better of Maicon and doubling Palermo's lead in the 36th. The 2-0 scoreline stands at the break.
Oh, and they tried to play in Bologna, but called the game after just a few minutes, realizing that no one could see Roma's white kits in the snow.

An evening memorial for the 19 firefighters killed in an Arizona wildfire brought thousands of mourners to a high school football stadium. The service in the mountain town of Prescott marked the first opportunity for many in the community to gather together since the men fighting a fire in nearby Yarnell died in the line of duty. The crowd filled the bleachers of a 3,000-seat stadium, with many attending also sitting on the field. The service struck a deeply religious tone with preachers urging the crowd to offer the families of the victims their love and support. After one moment of silence, 19 purple balloons - one for each of the fallen firefighters - were released into the air while taps played. The memorial Tuesday came after one held the previous afternoon at a gymnasium.
Earlier Tuesday, fire officials announced the Arizona wildfire is 8% contained.
The new containment figure Tuesday evening marked the first clear sign of progress against the forest fire in the town of Yarnell being fought by nearly 600 firefighters.
It had been zero percent contained since Sunday when flames jumped amid shifting winds and created a death trap for 19 members of a Prescott-based Hotshot crew.
The day marked the nation's biggest loss of firefighters since 9/11, and it came as hot, dry weather hit the Southwest.
Jim Whittington, spokesman for Southwest Incident Command Team, said the fire remains at roughly 8,400 acres.
Containment was primarily along the northeast corner and southeast flank of the fire. Firefighters will try to get the whole east side contained tomorrow and continue to work the corners of the fire from there.

This album is amazing. Recorded during the Christian Death reunion show. All original members (well except James Mcgearty) are here,playing mostly Only Theatre of Pain tracks. There is a new track 'Cry Baby' which is nice. And Lou Reed's 'Kill Your Songs' and Bowies 'Some Men/TheOther' are also nice. This album also sounds great, there aren't many flaws. In my opinion, this is probably The Best live Christian Death album there is.
I have to agree with George Belanger about the problems they had during the recording of the show. Being at the concert seemed like hell with no A/C and little water. This made the fans very restless causing interuptions in the concert itself. So I myself am very impressed with the outcome of the album when it was released. Speaking as a fan and a radio personality who interviewed Rozz many years ago. I can say, I and many others who met Rozz will miss him deeply. It's a great loss to the world to loose a great man.

But many parents are not convinced. Some believe there could be environmental factors, perhaps not present in previous generations, that are causing the rise.
For example, some parents have expressed concerns that autism might be linked to the vaccines children receive. One vaccine ingredient in particular – thimerosal – emerged as a suspect during the 1990s. It's a preservative that was commonly used in many childhood vaccines.
However, in 2001 thimerosal was removed or reduced to trace amounts in all childhood vaccines except for one type of influenza vaccine. The CDC says "several studies examining trends in vaccine use and changes in autism frequency do not support such an association between thimerosal and autism."
Some suspect things like exposure to mercury and diet play a role. At this point, research continues and parents wait.
What to do
If you suspect your child has a developmental problem that could be a form of autism, your first step should be an examination by the child's pediatrician. A health care provider experienced in diagnosing and treating autism is usually needed to make the actual diagnosis.
According to NIH, an early, intensive, appropriate treatment program will greatly improve the outlook for most young children with autism. Treatment is most successful when it is geared toward the child's particular needs.
There are a number of research and support groups for autism, including the Autism Society and Autism Speaks.

Adam Wodon from the College Hockey News has confirmed that Penn State University is going to form a Division I Hockey team and that the announcement will be made this Friday.
Pioneer Press — WCHA Commissioner Bruce McLeod said he is waiting to hear from Penn State, and subsequently the Big Ten, before making any detailed comments.
"Having said that," he added, "we're well aware of developing circumstances at Penn State, and we've definitely done our homework regarding several scenarios that could play out."
Creating a Big Ten men's hockey conference would give the fledgling Big Ten Network some live programming on Friday nights, when men's basketball teams typically don't play.
"That's some major programming on Friday nights," Lucia said.

I have some challah in the house. This is not just challah, not is it just bread. It is challah coated with onion, garlic, sesame seeds and other seasonings. It is absolutely filled with flavor, the way it is. To add scallion cream cheese to it and cook it, makes it a magic meal. I had, in the back of my mind to add sliced tomato to this sandwich to give it more flavor. While that would have been good, it was not needed. The only thing, I did wrong was not to make enough. We never eat more than two sandwiches and I don't eat more than one but with two, I could have eaten more. Since, it is cooked on the stove, it was easy and fast. Actually, mine browned too much but if it burned, I could not taste it.
The shape of my bread is rather ugly because this was a pull-apart round challah and most of the challah had been eaten. I was cutting slices from round and ragged edges. I certainly don't care but I feel badly showing you such a luscious sandwich in such bad shape.
I adapted this from Emeril, my chef for the week. I had no mascarpone cheese and since the cheese already had scallions in it, I did add the chives. I also cut the amount of butter used in this recipe.
Although this sandwich needs nothing, it is open to lots of additions, if wanted. Spice the cream cheese. Add fresh vegetables and herbs. Make it your own creation.
|Baby Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
In a small bowl, blend together the cream cheese and salt. Spread the mixture on 4 slices of the bread and top with the remaining bread. Spread 1/2 teaspoon of the butter on each side of each sandwich.
Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 sandwiches and cook until golden brown, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Remove and repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Cut each sandwich into 2 triangles. Serve immediately.

USEC reports quarterly loss of $21.2M; reviewing 'structuring options' on American Centrifuge
USEC Inc. today announced a net loss of $21.2 million (18 cents a share) for the quarter ending June 30, and net loss of $37.8 million (31 cents per share) for the first six months of 2011.
The company in a statement: "The financial results for the quarter and six-month period . . . . reflect the anticipated decline in the gross profit margin and higher advanced technology costs associated with the American Centrifuge project year-over-year that were not offset by a cost-sharing program that was in place in 2010 with the Department of Energy."
The company's application for a $2 billion loan guarantee for American Centrifuge from DOE remains in limbo, and USEC John K. Welch attempted to address some of the questions, financial issues and concerns, in a statement about USEC and the big uranium-enrichment project. He seemed to acknowledge that some folks are running out of patience.
Here's what he said:
"Although our bottom line was a net loss, the quarterly gross profit of $33 million was higher than initially projected. Our efforts to manage costs are expected to result in a gross profit margin for the full year of 6 percent, up from the 4 to 5 percent in our original guidance, Our continued investment in the American Centrifuge project resulted in the net loss, but that spending keeps the project in a condition where it can be ramped up again more quickly and at less cost than if it was fully demobilized.
"Our ongoing discussions with DOE on a loan guarantee were not concluded in July as we had hoped. These discussions have made it clear that DOE wants to see the project move forward. We believe they recognize the national significance of the project, the importance of having a U.S.-owned and operated enrichment plant, the long-term implication for both nuclear energy and national security, and the project's economic benefits, including approximately 8,000 jobs during construction.
"We have continued to work constructively with DOE, and our strategic investors Babcock & Wilcox and Toshiba, on the deployment of the American Centrifuge project. DOE has recently indicated that USEC needs additional financial and project execution depth to achieve a manageable credit subsidy cost and to proceed with our loan guarantee.
"We continue to strengthen the project by adopting the best operating practices developed over 50 years of safe operations at the Paducah plant and by working closely with our strategic investors to optimize our execution of the project.
"We are working with DOE and its advisors on reviewing structuring options to address DOE's remaining concerns. We have retained financial advisors who are helping us to review these options and our strategic alternatives. We expect to make decisions on the path to follow in the near term. We remain very mindful of the company's financial ability to continue spending on the project, as well as the patience of our investors, customers and suppliers."

Hiring A Professional Genealogist
Nearly every family has their own historian - a great aunt, grandparent or cousin - someone that is quickly recognized as the expert in matters pertaining to their family history. Those relatives are fantastic sources for getting started and can often provide you with enough material to feed your interest in genealogy for many years. Sooner or later, however, you'll experience what most researchers refer to as "the brick wall." Despite your best efforts and help from family historians or fellow researchers, you'll be unable to locate an individual that represents a key link in stepping back to an earlier time or place.
Whether you're just sketching out the basics of your family tree or have been researching for decades and are now preparing your work for publication, you may benefit from the expert guidance of a professional genealogist. Like accountants, attorneys, and doctors - professional genealogists can leverage their specialized knowledge, tools, and network of contacts for the benefit of your research or other related assignment. While most professionals have a strong understanding of many areas, they also tend to have a specific area of specialization.
To help extend your research efforts, we have worked closely with the
Association of Professional Genealogists
(APG) to answer some of the questions posed by the millions of annual visitors to Ellis Island. Formed in 1979, APG is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the highest level of professionalism and ethics in genealogical research.
What is a Professional Genealogist?
A professional genealogist is an individual skilled in various aspects of family history research who provides fee-based services to help others in the pursuit of their research projects. While services and areas of particular expertise will vary, most true professionals agree to abide by a code of ethics to help maintain the highest possible quality standards in their work. Although not required, most professionals are active in one or more professional associations.
more detail
What services can a Professional Genealogist provide?
Each professional genealogist will have their own menu of service offerings, but in general you can expect to find individuals willing to do research for you or to help lend their expertise for research you are doing yourself. In either case, you should ask for a fee schedule in advance. Keep in mind that some professionals specialize in certain aspects of genealogy research (e.g. - Italian research, military records research, New England research) and you may find it helpful to consult with more than one professional depending upon your project needs.
more detail
How can I find a Professional Genealogist?
The Association of Professional Genealogists provides an online directory with access to more than 1,500 professionals. An online search feature allows you to designate specific areas of interest
(e.g. - geographic, ethnic, time periods, or services desired).

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
Charlotte Mecklenburg school (CMS) system has 19 marching bands. The district offers no financial support to them because marching band is considered an extra curricular activity. This means students are on their own when it comes to financially supporting the program.
Marching band members at West Mecklenburg HS have to pay $375 a year to participate. That fee pays for transportation, snacks, uniforms, and instruments.
Band Director William McLeod says that is still not enough. He says the band comes up short every year.
"Our needs are great," McLeod said. "With the things we have to do."
The band director says if the band wants to travel, it has to pay CMS about $150 each time for transportation. Money is so tight the band had to forgo several engagements this past year because of money. One canceled event, the Democratic National Convention held in Charlotte, NC.
"I was disappointed," the band director said. "Because this opportunity doesn't come too often and just to know we missed out on something as significant as that is disheartening for me and the kids."
Students are frustrated. They believe if the marching band had more money, the band could get more exposure, and that is important.
"For someone to work really hard on something," Marching Band Member Rae'Kwon Springs said. "And not get too much credit or hasn't been seen - it defeats the purpose."
Marching Band means a lot for Springs. He says it helps keeps student focused and in school. He is saddened more students can't take advantage of the program because they can't afford the participation fee.
"By me going to band," the student said. "I have never had to have that problem as far as going to drink with my friends or do drugs with my friends because I know that's not what a band student does."
Springs and the band director hope more money will come to the marching band program. They claim it makes a difference in students' lives. But they won't let the lack of money get them down.
"We'll still strive," the student said. "And do as much as we can with what we have."
CMS does pay for band class, not marching band. That budget has seen a 10% reduction.

Sony A7R with FE55mm

Impressive details for f/2.2 ... btw, what is the black ball thingy in the sky?
Sony A7R with FE55mm
DSC00080ps by drjlo1, on Flickr
It's "New Homes" Sale baloonI think its a good thing that this Sony sensor is not in the 5D MK III ... the Nikon/Sony cameras (with 24 or 36MP
I so wish this sensor was inside my 5D III.
Woke up this morning with this sunrise, so I took a shot with Sony A7R with FE55 and 5D III and 24-70 f/2.8 II both at around 55 mm and at f/3.2 The 24-70 is a bit disadvantaged as it's barely stopped down, and the auto white balance of both cameras yielded very different WB, so I did my best to match WB.
Sony A7R, FE55mm by drjlo1, on Flickr
5D III white balance match by drjlo1, on Flickr
For the curious, this is how 5D III WB looked before matching. Recalling what my own eyes saw, I would say the sky looked like somewhere between Sony and Canon but more towards Canon.

"The Goldfinch is a rarity that comes along perhaps half a dozen times per decade, a smartly written literary novel that connects with the heart as well as the mind....Donna Tartt has delivered an extraordinary work of fiction."--Stephen King, The New York Times Book Review
Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by his longing for his mother, he clings to the one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art.
As an adult, Theo moves silkily between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty labyrinth of an antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love--and at the center of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle.
The Goldfinch is a mesmerizing, stay-up-all-night and tell-all-your-friends triumph, an old-fashioned story of loss and obsession, survival and self-invention, and the ruthless machinations of fate.
Donna Tartt was born in Greenwood, Mississippi and is a graduate of Bennington College. She is the author of the novels The Secret History and The Little Friend, which have been translated into thirty languages.

Evictions are driving long-time renters out of their homes -- and out of SF. Here are the stories of several people being evicted
02.05.13 - 6:29 pm | Rebecca Bowe and Dylan Tokar |
Mai told me that he knew a disabled senior was living in the building when he and his two partners bought it, but he said his plan all along was to evict all the tenants and turn the three-unit place into a single-family house. He said he hasn't decided yet whether to sell building; "I might decide to live there myself." (Of course, if he wanted to live there himself, he wouldn't need the Ellis Act.)
Mai said he "felt bad about the whole situation," and he had offered to buy Mykaels out. The offer, however, wouldn't have covered more than a few months of market rent anyplace else in the Castro.
By law, Mykaels can stay in his apartment until September. If he can't stave off the eviction by then, San Francisco will lose another longtime member of the city community.
Dark days in the Inner Sunset
By Rebecca Bowe
The living room in Rose and Willie Eger's Inner Sunset apartment is where Rose composes her songs and Willie unwinds after playing baseball in Golden Gate Park. Faded Beatles memorabilia and 45 records adorn the walls, and a prominently displayed poster of Jimi Hendrix looms above a row of guitar cases and an expansive record collection.
It's a little worn and drafty, but the couple has called this 10th Ave. apartment home for 19 years. Now their lives are about to change. On Jan. 5, all the tenants in their eight-unit building received notice that an Ellis Act eviction proceeding had been filed against them.
"The music that I do is about social and political things," explains Rose, dressed from head-to-toe in hot pink with a gray braid swinging down her back. Determined to derive inspiration from this whole eviction nightmare, she's composing a song that plays with the phrase "tenants-in-common."
Cindy Huff, the Egers' upstairs neighbor, says she began worrying about the prospect of eviction when the property changed hands last summer. Realtor Elba Borgen, described as a "serial evictor" in online news stories because she's used the Ellis Act to clear several other properties, purchased the apartment building last August, through a limited liability corporation. The notice of eviction landed in the mailbox less than six months later. (Borgen did not return Guardian calls seeking comment.)
"With the [average] rent being three times what most of us pay, there's no way we can stay in the city," Huff says. "The only option we would have is to move out of San Francisco." She retired last year following a 33-year stint with UCSF's human resources department. Now, facing the prospect of moving when she and her partner are on fixed incomes, she's scouring job listings for part-time work.
The initial notice stated that every tenant had to vacate within 120 days, but several residents are working with advocates from the Housing Rights Committee in hopes of qualifying for extensions. Huff and the Egers are all in their fifties, but some tenants are seniors—including a 90-year-old Cuban woman who lives with her daughter, and has Alzheimer's disease.
Willie works two days a week, and Rose is doing her best to get by with earnings from musical gigs. Both originally from New York City, they've lived in the city 35 years. When they first moved to the Sunset, it resembled something more like a working-class neighborhood, where families could raise kids. The recent tech boom has ushered in a transformation, one that Rose believes "changes the face of who San Francisco is." Willie doesn't mince words about the mess this eviction has landed them in. "I call it 'Scam-Francisco,'" he says.
You can't easily compare cities in Texas to San Francisco for the simple reason the level of real estate investment and speculation is much higher here. At the height of the last real estate boom, in the hottest neighborhoods, nearly 50% of the properties sold were to investors, not owner occupiers. Such speculation artificially raises valuation of properties and consequently, rental costs.
In many parts of the Bay Area, this is again true. Rental costs are going up *because* of evictions and turnover of the property to investors who, although not monopolizing the market, greatly influence valuation increases in the shelter market. Sure, increased demand from the tech industry is driving both increased valuation and speculation also. But I am not sure the type of incomes in tech can continue substantively as high as they are presently. Many already are calling this dot com 2.
Many of the tech workers are, frankly, young and naive ... which is why they are willing to overextend themselves to bid up valuations against speculators. The real estate industry is taking full advantage of the fact these are young people with money.
Posted by Guest on Feb. 11, 2013 @ 6:24 pm
Evictions increase income volatility for those displaced, since there are often no viable work alternatives elsewhere, and commuting from another city would be prohibitively expensive both in time and money. Often decades of business or professional connections can be lost in eviction displacements, a stealth loss which is rarely properly valued.
Given that the article suggests people move completely away from the area might suggest a period of unemployment and perhaps increased unemployability. Again, these are issues that must be addressed when valuing the cost of displacing long term residents.
I would think that the true cost of compensating a long-term tenant would approach $100,000 to $200,000 if all the capital losses of an employed tenant are properly valued.

The minimum wage crowd can work anywhere, while professionals have skills that are marketable anywhere.
Wrongful eviction lawsuits never take into account such alleged costs, and any attempt to impose them would be deemed an unconstitutional "taking".
People move. It happens - part of life. Deal with it.
Posted by Guest on Feb. 12, 2013 @ 9:22 am
Actually many professionals have licenses that are restricted by state, and are not marketable anywhere, and the building of a professional career involves a lot of expense, so your uninformed implication that such costs are irrelevant is incorrect. Those costs should be recaptured through the legal process, either on the front end in buyout negotiations, or on the back-end as a part of an eviction lawsuit. Property rights should not precede civil rights, as you imply.
Posted by Guest on Feb. 12, 2013 @ 1:29 pm
just a few miles away, say to Oakland. You'd have to move a long, long way to leave the State.
Property rights ARE civil rights, you idiot. Nobody rents a place if theyw ant long-term security because all renters know they can and probably will be evicted periodically. Deal with it.

You got person A who currently depends on Rent Control and person B who does not. Parties who are engaged in landlording are sometimes writing poor contracts to prospective tenants and tenants are not always experts in the field of tenant laws. You got folks that spend a great deal of their time finding ways to meet their america dream and folks that spend a great of deal of no time achieving that same goal. There is a balance for densely populated city's that have the human need to simply coexist and it needs to be enforced. Another reason why communities have counterbalances like rent control is that helps Joe Machanic help Joe Workman achieve his goals or Jane Coffee helping Jane Daytrader move our consumer economy. A productive city makes a productive local economy and you need people to be close by to help you achieve your goals. Rent Control works. Without it we wouldn't have checks a balances. Greed eats away at your human right to live like a bunch of pitbulls mauling a defenseless baby. Fact, Native Americans were displaced in America in our not so distant past. We should displace hardworking laborers that did or did not do what you were doing 10 years ago?! Rent control aids local economies and help a community to thrive in a capitalist society as well as protecting your place of residency while you achieve your longer term goals. P.S. the housing boom was the only time in recorded human history that homes went as high as it did. Check the data on the US Home Price Index. We have enough problems with our economy today.

The incivility in these comments is sickening. I can't stomach it. Hearing people talking (anonymously, no less) about the greed of relatively low-wage workers wanting to get a raise (and probably not getting it) or wanting to be able to live in the city, as they work full-time and still cannot afford market rate...and you call THEM entitled. What about the entitlement of those earning six figures who feel they have the right to own everything and everyone, up to and including the entire city, by virtue of having a huge salary? And then they once again blame the working poor for their poverty (though this problem affects the middle class as well, as the city has priced them out) by saying they must have made poor choices in their education or career. Bullshit. First of all, some of our most intelligent, educated people work in fields that do not carry six-figure paychecks, like social work or nonprofit work, because they care about things other than just money. Does that mean they don't deserve to live in SF? Second, the idea that everyone is born equal and has an equal opportunity in life in this country is pure BS. This country has lower social mobility than any country in the developed world. If you are born poor, you will probably die poor. It is the few exceptions that prove the rule. These jackasses talking about "entitlement queens" as they try to buy out the city almost undoubtedly come from families that were well-off enough (at least) to afford them a good college education, and were educated enough themselves to make this a priority. They probably never had to work as teenagers or young adults to help their family. They have undoubtedly never faced an eviction because, despite working full-time, they couldn't pay market rate on overpriced rental units. And before one of you brings it up, I'm sure there are a few token examples among you who can brag about the poverty you overcame, but again, it is the exception that proves the rule.
The truly entitled class in this country are those at the top, who feel entitled to their tax breaks, entitled to buy out what others have worked so hard to get or keep, entitled to exile those who don't make as much money as they do, entitled to dictate politics because they can write checks to politicians. This makes me sick. I moved to the bay area last summer and felt at home here--though naturally I cannot afford to live in SF, even on a very solid middle-class salary, and had to get a place in Oakland, which is still expensive. Little did I know I was moving in among vultures who feel entitled to six-figure salaries and property but call those who struggle to pay the bills "entitled." Disgusting.
Posted by Irene on Feb. 15, 2013 @ 11:23 am
Irene, I agree completely with your points.
This site needs more input from people of our perspective and less of the infestation -- which, by-the-way, is mostly just one anti-social kook with probable issues around his relationship to his mother or toilet training -- but know that the trolls' *purpose* here is to cause a disturbance among right-thinking people.
To that point, I'd recommend you avoid feeling sickened by it, but rather put more effort into rhetorical tacks that are positive; such as expressing ridicule.
Less of dismay and more of righteous scorn will have greater effect towards making the trolls STFU.
One more tip: if you are going to spend the time to write detailed comments, split them up with ore paragraph breaks adding a carriage return after each one to make them easier to read.

get these losers out of the city and let a new breed of people in.
the people mentioned in this article need to move on with their lives and stop being so jewish and greedy

I'd love to get paid to leave my apartment! San Francisco is losing it's character, and many of my friends have already fled for better places. Change is really hard, I know, but it happens. You can either fight it (and likely lose) or you can try to turn it to your advantage.
My heart goes out to those of you who are having a tough time making ends meet! I hope you find your way through this.
P.S. If you are offered money to leave your rental, consider asking for 3 to 4 times the amount you are offerred. You'd be surprised how much "the rich people" are willing to pay.

I hate winter. HATE HATE HATE. I ride to work in the dark, I ride home in the dark, and I just generally feel like a mole person because even when it's daylight, it's generally gray and dark daylight, not sunny cold daylight. So it's fair to say that winter is my least favorite season.
In a lovely bit of serendipity, though, my wife was born and raised in Tucson, and still has family (and a few friends) there, and completely coincidental to that, my sister and her family also live in Tucson. So the way I deal with winter is by leaving it for a while - we just booked a week in Tucson at the end of the month, and I can't wait. We're going for a family visit, to watch a couple Timbers preseason games, and to get me some sun (my wife detests the sun, which is why she moved to Portland, so for her warm weather isn't an incentive).
The prospect of travel gives me something to look forward to, a reason to slog through these awful depressing short dark damp days, because I know that three weeks from now, I'll be sitting in my sister's backyard in shorts and no shoes, barbecuing something and drinking a beer.
