This is a summary of the series of usability and accessibility reviews that Chris Rourke, Director & Founder of User Vision conducted for Mad.co.uk, the UK's leading online resource for professionals working in marketing, media, new media, advertising and design.

- Introduction
- The Green Party
- Liberal Democrat Party
- Plaid Cymru
- The Conservative Party
- The Scottish National Party
- The Labour Party
- Conclusions
The internet is increasingly a resource used to research detailed issues such as political and social policies. Clearly as government in general tries to build bridges with the citizens, an effective web channel is critical. But an effective web site is much more than putting some key content online.
The way a site is organised, written, and presented can make or break the overall 'user experience'. The clarity with which a party can convey its views to a large degree will determine if site visitors feel frustrated and alienated by a party's site or whether they engage with the site, potentially actively campaigning, recommending others and voting for the party.
This is the domain of usability and accessibility on the web and it is critical for the online presence of political parties.
Online accessibility for disabled people is increasingly important. In the UK, amendments to the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) set out the rights of disabled people not to encounter unjustifiable discrimination by goods, facilities and service providers on account of their disability. Beyond the legal arguments there is the moral issue of promoting social inclusion by taking advantage of the potential of web technology to widen access to information, facilities and services.
In the early stages of the recent US presidential election, candidate Howard Dean legitimised the internet and email as mediums for political activism and fundraising. He showed that a party's site can do much more than state policies and contact details.
He provided a virtual community for the party's dispersed supporters to learn, educate, share enthusiasm, political views and campaigning tactics, even portray a 'personality' to the candidate through the campaign blog.
UK parties have the same opportunity to engage with their committed and potential voters through the web. Are they grasping that?
We took at six political party's websites to see how usable their site was for the voting masses and how they accommodated users with special access needs, e.g. blind users or those with motor disabilities.
We focused on 3 typical tasks that people will want to achieve when visiting a political party's website, these are:
- To find out about the party's policies
- View news on election progress
- Find out how to contribute to or join the party
Each website also gets a rating out of five based on these standards:
- Content: How useful the information and functionality delivered via the site is to the intended target audience. Is the content readable?
- Structure: How well the content of the site is organized to support users' efficiently getting the information or functionality they are seeking
- Navigation: How easy and obvious it is to move from one part of the site to the next desired content / functionality in the site
- Search: How useful is the site's search feature. Is the results page helpful?
- Overall design & presentation: How well the visual design reflects the intended image, looks professional and is aesthetically pleasing
- Accessibility: How well the site supports special needs users and users with older technology for accessing the information
The Green Party
The homepage of this site was friendly and approachable. From there it was easy to access current news items, but when we started searching for specific pieces of information things got a bit more complicated.
The site structure was not transparent and frequently the page headings did not reflect the content of that page. When we located the policy pages information it was The Green Party neglected to think about users reading their policies online and the policy information pages were long and difficult to scan.
Reading on websites is not like reading printed documents. Commonly quoted statistics show that users don't read webpage in detail. 79% of users scan the page instead of reading word-for-word. Reading from computer screens is 25% slower than from paper. This needs to be kept in mind when putting content on websites.
Cutting and pasting from long print publications decreases the effectiveness of webpage content. Instead, the information should be pared down to it minimum and presented in short sentence and paragraphs, broken up by bulleted lists and subheadings.
We found some better example of this on other political party sites, as you will see below.
It is clear how to join and donate to the party. However, these sections are poorly formatted and lose the branding of the rest of the site, which makes both processes seem disjointed from the main site. This may make users uncomfortable when they are entering in their personal information.
The accessibility of the site was low and many groups of disabled users, including those using screen readers and text only browsers, would find some parts of the site difficult or impossible to access, including the online forms.
There were some very basic accessible design errors, such as missing or inappropriate alternative text, inaccessible PDFs with no accessible alternative and recursive links. Some of these issues would not require a lot of effort to resolve, but as it stands deny some disabled users access to the content.

Liberal Democrat Party
The Liberal Democrats site works well to back up their election campaign. When we reviewed it they made use of an introductory page to set out their 10 election pledges.
Splash pages are a tactic that we saw many political parties adopt over the election period to grab the user's attention when they arrived by the site.
Some of these worked well but, like the Lib Dem one, the link to skip this page was hidden a bit at the bottom. We would recommend that this is made clearer so as not to annoy impatient users (there are a lot out there).
Detailed information on the Lib Dem policies is easily obtained by using the navigation at the top of the page. This navigation is consistent throughout the site and the labels are clear.
But it tries to cram in a lot of options in this top area, which forces the navigation over three lines. This is cluttered and loses each page some important 'vertical equity', forcing the user to scroll.
The search and advanced search let users easily locate a specific topic. The advanced search lets the user refine their search criteria and focus on information between specific dates or search for an exact phrase.
The content is presented with clear page and section headings, but the main body of content is not broken up by sub headings or highlighted words, thus suffering from the same problem as the Green Party site.
Joining or donating is linked to from the top navigation and we were pleased to see that there was good practice shown in presenting the forms. They were straightforward and easy to use. Lib Dems optimise their fundraising by suggesting donation amounts at the end of the joining and renewing membership form.
Importantly, they had clear information about security. The number of people using the internet to shop and donate is steadily increasing, but that doesn't mean users are any less nervous about sending credit card information over the internet.
We have repeatedly seen in usability tests subjects abandoning sites at the moment of transaction because they didn't have confidence in the security of the site.
The site designers have nodded towards accessible web design and made sure that all images have alternative text to aid users browsing non-visually.
However, other basic features are neglected. For example, the ability to increase or decrease the font sizes using the browser controls is only patchily implemented across the site, with some areas having fixed font size.

Plaid Cymru
The most disappointing site was that of the party of Wales. It had a shockingly low standard for website usability and accessibility, in stark contrast to the other parties. It was hard to believe that it was a professional site intended for a 2005 audience.
The standard of design was poor and the site was archaically designed in frames – a practice most sites have abandoned for well documented usability and accessibility reasons, including poor navigational experience.
The text on the site seems to have been cut and pasted from a print publication, with little thought given to writing for the web. There is almost no highlighting of key features.
Much of the content is presented using PDF files. All the parties were guilty of this to some extent. PDF files are not an alternative to presenting information on a website, they are an option.
Broadly speaking PDF files are inaccessible to many disabled users. Also, many users do not want to download PDF files because of technology or broadband restrictions.
Therefore an accessible, HTML version of the information should be also available. Also, the link should make clear it is a PDF file and the file size. The page should have a link to the Adobe site to download Acrobat Reader, for those users who do not have it.
Navigating the site was unintuitive. The left hand navigation does not seem to be in any particular order, with 'Party History' at the top. The site is not very deep and there was little indication in some section where you were.
Needless to say, the site would prove difficult for a number of disabled users with assistive technology to access because of the frames, but also there is little or no structure markup.
As the site is for the Party of Wales, one would expect content to be presented in this language. A link has been provided at the bottom of the left hand navigation which allows users to select either the Welsh or English language version.
This is a positive attribute in principle; however it falls down in practice as many of the pages in the English version are presented in Welsh first.
Only if users scroll down certain pages will they discover English translations also. This adds further confusion and continues to weaken the overall user experience of the site.
For disabled users there were some good features about the site. The site was sparing on images and any that were there had appropriate alternative text. The font is a good size for most people and is also scalable, allowing those who want to increase the font through their browser settings to do so.
However the site uses images of text for left hand navigation which means they are not resizable.
The frames will cause problems for some users, including screen reader users. We would recommend avoiding the use of frames altogether. However, if they are used, they should be given a descriptive title and name (e.g. 'Navigation') so that text only browsers, screen readers and refreshable Braille displays can understand what the content of the frame is.

The Conservative Party
In contrast the Conservative party presents a slickly branded and clear website that reinforces their election message from the homepage. A flash banner reinforces their advertising campaign and under the heading 'What we will do' five campaign pledges are laid out.
The navigation behaves consistently throughout the site which makes the learnability of the site straightforward for most users.
Key navigation routes are offered along the top of each page in a series of tabs for political areas of interest (jobs, crime, schools etc) with further action-based navigation for getting in touch, finding out more about the Party etc in the left hand navigation.
This navigation does not support the user in orientating themselves within the site and the current location can be slightly unclear. When following on of the 'What we will do' links the page usually leads with a news story and no clear reference to the link topic.
This can lead to uncertainty that the correct page has been found.
The site has many links and promotions for joining or donating to the party and to register support. The form show good practice in letting the user select a suggested donation amount or lets them specify they own.
As a nice touch users can specify which campaign/issue they would like their money allocated to.
This gives them control over how their money is spent and lets them feel they have more have power over their donation.
Unfortunately for those who are protective of their privacy, there is no communication opt-out option. Users are required to register with the site before they donate and this specifies that they must receive communication from the party.
This is off putting for people who just want to donate without getting unsolicited emails or mail.
There are examples of positive accessible web design on the Conservative site, including a function to allow users to resize text – a particularly useful feature considering the ageing population that supports the Tories.
The site could be improved with alterative text for some images where there is currently. Also, the underlying structure of the site, e.g. headings, is not reflected in the underlying HTML markup.
Including this information means that semantic information about the content is clear and allows the site to transform gracefully across different browsers and platforms.

The Scottish National Party
The Scottish National Party (SNP) website is a stark contrast to their Welsh counterparts. The homepage is clear and professional, with sections of information organised under clear headings.
We were particularly impressed with how the content throughout the site is presented in bite size paragraphs with links to further detail for users who are interested in learning more. The content is well written and easy to scan.
The site keeps a strong consistency in design and layout throughout and the current location is indicated in the navigation and the headings. There is a lack of consistency in the clickable parts of the site, alternating between the subheading, the text and the coloured link at the bottom.
The SNP site shows good practice in having detailed information on policies in PDF files and in plain text files. Therefore, those users who do not want to have to wait to download a PDF file can easily access the information.
The file size is shown, but the names of the files are the same generic text for all documents ('Download' and 'Preview'). It would be much easier for the users if these were clarified, especially if the user wishes to save the files and review them later.
The online donation and joining forms are easy to find, with clear and consistent links on the left hand side and at the top. The forms are easy to use, but lack the persuasiveness demonstrated by some of the other parties.
As with the others, this site makes a gesture towards accessible web design, but still fails to meet the most basic level of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
The site uses good structural HTML and the text is specified in relative font size so it can be resized by the browser controls. There are some instances of generic link text (e.g. 'read more') which is unhelpful for screen reader users tabbing through, but generally the link text is good.
However, the site transforms ungracefully when the style sheets are turned off, due to the top banner specifying the background colour in the HTML. Also, some of the decorative images are missing their alternative text.

The Labour Party
The party of the current (at time of writing) government came in at a surprising third in this usability and accessibility review. For a party famed for its canny communication, the Labour party site makes some basic mistakes that stop it achieving the top spot in this review.
The Labour homepage is clear and attractive and uses the nice tactic of showcasing one policy or issue at a time with a large picture of the people involved.
This clearly sets their issue in the real world of the people it affects. The page has lots of promotional areas. However with many of these, like 'Tony's campaign diary', it is hard to tell where they live in the site.
Thus when you are trying to find such features again from a different part of the site you do not know where to go. These seem to be discreet silos that are only linked from promotional areas.
The navigational confusion continues throughout the site. While the top navigation is clear and consistent, when you go into a section it is unclear where the secondary navigation is.
The right hand navigation seems to just group related links. I discovered the secondary navigation in the 'Our Policies' section at the bottom of the page content, below the fold.
Additionally, the silo theme continues when you go into a specific policy so you have to click back to the main page to get to another one. This is clumsy and means the user has no consistent overview of the section.
The content on the Labour site is well written for reading onscreen (and generally well written) and is a real strength for the site.
Also, this site comes out top in the accessibility stakes. It is elegantly designed in style sheets and has good alternative text and structural markup throughout. All the pages flow logically when accessed linearly and there is invisible internal navigation links to help screen reader users skip straight to the page content.

the difference between the lowest (Plaid Cymru) and the highest (SNP) scoring sites is wide in this review, showing that some of the parties have grasped better than others how to effectively communicate online.
Overall the standard was good, and no doubt the websites are serving to improve communications for all parties. However I cannot point to one party as an all-round example of how to communicate well online.
We were surprised that some of the sites, especially Plaid Cymru, seemed to neglect tailoring their content for their website. Dumping print publications online makes the site very content heavily and difficult to browse.
Content needs to be concise and to the point. Sentences and paragraphs should be kept short and the page broken up by lists and subheadings to help the scanning eye pick key information.
The SNP and Labour did this well, thus making their sites instantly more digestible.
Clear navigation
The SNP and the Conservative party websites had clear and consistent navigation with good labels. This helps users learn the site and speeds up finding information.
Site designers should never underestimate how pivotal this is to a good user experience. The Labour party site falls down badly in this, with its numerous silos and nontransparent structure.
Overall design and presentation
The standard of design was generally good (with the exception of Plaid Cymru). However, the Conservatives took the biscuit in terms of the branding impact and strong campaign message.
We were surprised that the standard of accessibility was not higher, as the parties should be showing good practice in social inclusiveness. The Labour party showed the clearest commitment to accessibility with lots of positive features, followed by the Conservatives. Most of the parties had an accessibility statement but most did not live up to their promises. A bad sign?
Future political party site developers would benefit from cherry picking some lessons of best practice from the sites reviewed.
These include the CSS layout and accessibility of the Labour site, the straightforward and transparent donation and join forms of the Liberal Democrats, the branding impact and strong campaign message of the Conservatives and the consistency in layout and clarity of content of the SNP. Even these however leave room for improvement.
Finally, just as political imperatives evolve over time, so does web technology and user expectations. I would expect that by the next time a general election is held party websites may need to include greater integration with mobile channels, new interaction methods such as Rich Internet Applications, and address the modified guidelines on accessibility.

As our world continues to evolve and expand, sometimes the origins of things, the details and processes seem to get lost. I'm always curious about where things come from, the story, the people, and the hands that go into each thing that we consume. It seems that wherever you may be, there is someone that can provide you with what you need, locally.
In 2006 the owners of Higher Grounds Coffee Roasters, located in a small town called Leeds, Alabama, gave Natalie a bag of their freshly roasted, fair-trade, organic coffee beans. Since that day, Higher Grounds has been a staple here at Alabama Chanin, something that we look forward to enjoying each morning. When we received that first bag of coffee, it seemed that local coffee roasters in the South were few and far between. Fast forward six years and it seems that everywhere you look there are new and exciting things happening in the coffee world.

I have known Jamie for 25 years now. She is not only one of the nicest people I have ever met but one of the most professional, sincere and dedicated people I know. As a mom I can't imagine the heartbreak she has suffered over the loss of her beloved son but I admire her for the courage it took and has taken to relive her loss over and over in an effort to educate young adults about the impact their choices have on others, as well as themselves.

We were two families and had 2 apartments opposite one another. Loved the accommodation and the staff were incredibly helpful in making bookings and dealing with our needs. My only comments would be that as we stayed 5 nights it would have been nice to get one complimentary room clean during that period and maybe just more than exactly 4 pieces of each type of crockery and cutlery so we didn't have to wash up between preparing food and eating it. Otherwise, fabulous and would definitely stay there again.

Technical Support / Re: General Client Advise Sought« on: August 09, 2012, 08:31:15 PM »
1. I have been shooting as many as 2100 photos and delivering 1900 photos (copyright released) to the bride. Is this normal, or should I cut it down to the top 10-20% of photos?3-400 might be "normal", especially for a budget wedding photographer, but 1900 is probably a bit excessive. Especially if you are processing them in anyway. The general process is to deliver every shot that is unique, but to leave out the ones that are obvious duplicates of other shots. Honestly, 1900 photos will overwhelm a client and they'll delete half of them anyway.
2. I know I should be charging more - mother's of the bride have told me so. How does one go about setting pricing vs. quality?I will strongly suggest doing a lot of reading and lurking here: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/board/48
Some things to consider. If you are in it for the long run, your pricing is critical. You get more bookings by getting referrals, and moving up in pricing is very, very difficult...especially when you start so low. If you shoot 10 weddings at $399, your next 50 bookings will come from that, and they aren't gonna want to pay $1000 when their friend paid $399. Which means you either become the $399 photographer, or you start from scratch again. It's ok to start cheap to get experience, but, recognize that the longer you shoot in the range, the more you lock yourself into it
Likewise, if you're getting into it for the long haul, don't quit your day job. Full time wedding photography is exceptionally hard to maintain, and there are plenty of photographers, like yourself, who will offer services dirt cheap and undercut you. Here is a great post on that aspect of it. But, you seem like you know its a side thing.
If you enjoy shooting weddings as a side gig, then my suggestion would be to sit down and think finances. If you are shooting 2000+ pictures a wedding, you'll wear out your camera fast, so budget for that. Likewise with lenses, of which you need multiple in case one fails. You need insurance, because if a bride sues you you are screwed...and that's not cheap. Also, you have to be able to store all those images so they are backed up...and have a back-up for that back-up if it fails. Do you have a contract that explains what you offer and controls your clients expectations? Also, you have to actually bring in a little cash for your time, so decide what is truly worth your time in terms of income. You might have all those things accounted for already, but, if not, they add up fast.
What you can charge will depend on your market (big city v small town) and what you are willing to offer. I'd start searching your area for what others are charging, what they offer, and decide from there which market you want to fit.

RTS Rocks MTV
Camden, UK RTS intercom technology is playing an important role in the refurbished master control room (MCR) at MTV's European headquarters in Camden, North London, which provides switching for three onsite studios and over 50 television channels across the UK, Ireland, and mainland Europe.
Based on a 112-port ADAM (Advanced Digital Audio Matrix) frame, with integral RVON RTS Voice Over Network) VoIP cards, the system is able to connect to desktop panels using Ethernet links, plus three Virtual Keypanels, around the MTV studios complex.
Computer technology is having an increasing influence on broadcast communications, and the Virtual Keypanel is a PC interface that replicates the familiar intercom switch panel on a desktop or laptop screen and offers the same functions as the traditional hardware version, with audio reproduced through the onboard soundcard.
Being able to connect to the intercom system using Ethernet was a major factor in MTV's decision to install RTS. The new KP 32 CLD Color Keypanel, which is used in the MCR, was another selling point, as was the ability to connect to the existing engineering Walkie Talkie radio system.
The RTS keypanels, RVON, and Telephone Broadcast Units (TBUs) were selected because they allow users to communicate easily and efficiently. The TBUs are a telephone interface box that enable operators to dial direct from a keypanel to a mobile or land line and connect a contributor feed to the studio sound output for interviews between presenters and the person on the phone.
Robert Cranfield, senior systems engineer at MTV, commented, "We looked at a number of systems before making a decision. However, RTS's keypanels, TBUs, and the RVON options offer our operators just what they need: simplicity and clarity. Once built the whole talkback system was migrated to RTS over a period of three days."
There are plans to integrate the RTS system in London with MTV's New York studios, using a network VoIP connection through the RVON facility. This will give users the impression that they are communicating over a single, large, seamless intercom system.
RTS's UPL (User Programmable Logic) option within the AZedit software has allowed the MTV engineers to configure the system to run precisely as required, with functions specific to the broadcaster's operational needs. "The software is simple to use and fast to configure, plus it has a powerful programming system that allows us to customize the intercom system for our specific way of working," explains MTV broadcast engineer Jonathan Hughes.

"This classic design address label is perfect and it is of good quality. We purchased this for our infant's stationary...he is set!"
"I picked this design for a winter shower because of the brown. It's almost like a rustic brown (not grey) in color as described for some reason. The fun colors in the baby girl are all the colors being used in the shower. Can't wait for Savannah's arrival!"
"I've recently ordered the Fairy address labels and fell in love with them...Along with the matching invitations...Thanks you and keep up the good work! :D"
"I bought these to coordinate with the Sketched Sweetness invitations... since they are both listed as the color Aloe I was hoping they would match, and they do. I used the same fonts as were used on the invitation and it came out great."

There's something obvious missing from Nail'd. For grammarians, it will be the title's unnecessary contraction of a perfectly acceptable transitive verb. For Newtonians, it will be the game's flagrant disuse of the laws of motion. For everyone else, it will surely just be the total lack of challenge on offer in developer …
Just in time
So glad you did this review, played the demo last night and seemed alright with the 2 tracks on offer.
Best to wait for Motorstorm me thinks.
Looks like...
...another case of the top execs of an inferior publisher/ dev studio looking at a successful masterpiece of a game such as Motorstorm: Pacific Rift and saying "make me one of those" (which still, 3 years on, is excellent online and has no shortage of players).
I agree with Drunk Junkie: wait for the next Motorstorm. Thanks for the review.
The stills look very similar to Pure - that was a great game. Thought this might be the sequel when I saw the first pic but reading this review it definitely isn't...
Thanks for the caption
The game looks rubbish, thanks for the review :-) But even bigger thanks for the caption of "Boulder Dash", I'm off to find a C64 emulator to play that instead!
"the impunity of its crashes"
Isn't that like every racing game in the modern console-gaming age? You scrape your car around the crash barriers of a track with your virtual foot on the virtual floor, slam into the rear/sides/front of other cars, and blast through the finishing line only to be offered stuff to buy. (When I say "you", I actually mean the talentless dick you're racing against, realising that there's no point in having a brake control when you can bounce off the side of the track as if you were an elementary particle.)
Nice scenery, though.
I'll stick with Motorstorm
Nail'd sounds pretty poor.
We have all of the Motorstorms, now they are a really good offroad racer.
I like the Patriot Rodeo, Monarch Claymore (a Bowler), the blue tanker lorry (Hydroaid?)

Boller Wins Szarejko Information Literacy Award
St. John Fisher College's Lavery Library recently presented Dr. Mike Boller, Assistant Professor of Biology, with the 4th Annual Dr. Mark Szarejko Faculty Information Literacy Award.
The award is named for Szarejko '80, in recognition of his support for the library. It is given to a Fisher faculty member who actively supports information literacy. All faculty members are eligible for the award, with the exception of the library committee members.
According to the committee, Boller "has been a dedicated advocate for advancing the information literacy skills of his biology students, and in shaping the evolution of information literacy in the Biology Department of St. John Fisher College. He places a high value on information literacy at all levels of his teaching: freshmen to seniors, and majors and non-majors alike. He firmly believes that 'navigating the ocean of information is one of the most critical skills a student should obtain from their college education.'"
Previous Szarejko Award winners include Dr. Kristin Picardo, Associate Professor, Biology; Dr. Susan Shultz, Associate Professor and Program Director, M.S. Special Education; and Dr. Stephen Brauer, Associate Professor of English.

Man executed for killing 3 members of Texas family
HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) — A man convicted of fatally stabbing his ex-girlfriend, her young son and her mother 13 years ago at a home in Corpus Christi was executed by Texas prison officials Wednesday.
The lethal injection of Jose Villegas, 39, was carried out after his attorneys unsuccessfully argued to the U.S. Supreme Court that he was mentally impaired and ineligible for the death penalty.
"I would like to remind my children once again I love them," Villegas said when asked if he had a statement before being put to death. "Everything is OK. I love you all, and I love my children. I am at peace."
Just as the pentobarbital began taking effect, he said, "It does kind of burn. Goodbye." He gasped several times, then started to breathe quietly. Within less than a minute, all movement had stopped.
Villegas was pronounced dead at 7:04 p.m. CDT, 11 minutes after the lethal dose of the sedative began. He became the seventh prisoner executed this year in the nation's most active death penalty state.
Six relatives of his victims witnessed the execution but declined to comment afterward.
"I was struck by the calm and peacefulness inside that room as opposed to the utter terror the victims must have been in as Jose Luis Villegas stabbed them," Mark Skurka, the Nueces County district attorney who prosecuted Villegas, said after watching the execution.
"He made no attempt to make peace with the family, apologize to the family or show any remorse for taking the lives of three people," Skurka said. "The family expressed to me that they are glad that this is finally over and that justice has finally been done, even though it took a very long time in their minds for this to happen."
Villegas' lawyers filed a last-day appeal asking the Supreme Court to stop his punishment, saying testing in February showed he had an IQ of 59. The high court denied it several hours later, slightly delaying the punishment. Four of the nine justices indicated in the brief court order that they would have given him a reprieve.
The Supreme Court has prohibited execution of mentally impaired people, although states have been allowed to devise procedures to make their own determinations. Courts also have embraced scientific studies that consider a 70 IQ a threshold for impairment, and the high court justices are reviewing a Florida law stipulating that number for death penalty eligibility.
The Texas Attorney General's office disputed the IQ finding, saying previous examinations of Villegas showed no mental impairment and the number cited in his appeal was based on testing after he received an execution date and had no incentive to do well on the test. State attorneys also argued his lawyers had 10 years to raise impairment claims but didn't do so until days before his scheduled punishment.
Villegas was convicted of fatally stabbing Erida Salazar, 23, her 3-year-old son, Jacob, and Salazar's mother, Alma Perez, 51, in January 2001. Their bodies were discovered by Salazar's father when he returned home after being excused from jury duty. Each had been stabbed at least 19 times.

I currently have 2 oz. of oak chips soaking in Eagle Rare Bourbon. How long can I let the chips soak before adding them to my secondary. The batch I want to add them to will not be ready for the secondary for 10 days. Will I still get the oak flavor after letting them soak that long?
I usually soak my chips for two weeks minimum. I'm currently using chips that have been soaking for 8 months. The whiskey will help bring out the oak flavor.

Your assumptions sound reasonable and what we need now is a will for Thomas McFann (d.Dec 16, 1817 in Pittsburgh) or Widdow McFann, listed with John McFann in the 1830 census for Fallowfield Twp, Crawford Co., PA, aged 60-70 in order to tie this all together.
Just for the record, though, you are assuming that the parents of Martha are Thomas and Mary McFann, based on the fact that two of her children are named Thomas McFann Chambers and Mary McFann Chambers. Since these are the only McFanns in Allegany County, your assumption is probably correct and just needs to be verified.

Welcome to my webstore!
Hi, my name is Fran and I have been making hand crafted quillows since 2000.
What is a Quillow?
A quillow is a personal-sized quilt that can be quickly and easily folded to make a decorative pillow. As a pillow, it can complement any decor with its themed settings or designes. Unfolded as a quilt, you can snuggle from head-to-toe! Also when it is opened it forms a pocket on the reverse side. This pocket is to be used to keep your feet warm, while sitting in your favorite chair.
Every quillow I make is almost 6 feet long and over 3½ feet wide (approximately 44" by 68"). When used as a pillow, the rest of the quillow is folded up into a 17"X 17" square. Each quillow is machine quilted, 100% cotton fabric and filled with poly batting. All are machine washable and dryable. These make the perfect gift for that certain person, we all know someone that has everything. Please enjoy shopping.
I have recently added two categories to my web site consisting of "Hanging Quilts" amd "Bed Quilts". These articles were made by Barbra Baumann who quilted for several decades. Unfortunately she has suffered a disability that precludes her from continuing her passion. I have obtained several of her quality quilts and have posted them for purchase.
I am scheduled to attend the below listed craft shows. Periodically I will be adding to this list.
I can not guarantte that any orders placed after December 1st. will be done in time for Christmas. So if you plan giving a Quillow as a Christmas gift please order as soon as possiable. Thank you.

Critic Reviews for Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Season 2
All Critics (10) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (10) | Rotten (0)
The interplay between the steely, unsmiling Braugher and goofy try-hard Andy Samberg has brought out great things in both of them.
It's funny, maybe not as funny as it should be, but still chock full of terrific gags and punchlines, most of them property of Lo Truglio and Braugher.
The reason why Brooklyn Nine-Nine clicks back into place so seamlessly is due to how well defined these characters are. We don't need to be reintroduced to anyone.
This episode was like my favorite winter jacket. I may not have worn it for six months, but it fits like a glove, it's comfortable and familiar, and does the job it's designed to do.
It was natural to wonder how they would get Peralta back into the 99th Precinct house again and how long it would take once the second season began. The answer? It took about five minutes.
It just felt so pleasing to have this show back. Hell, I was just glad to have the opening credits sequence back.
A slowly improving, engaging sitcom like Brooklyn Nine-Nine is the sort of thing that can buttress an empire, not establish one.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine is frequently deceptively sharp, clever, and layered. Ultimately, it was a delight to see this team brought back together and heading into what looks to be an interesting, weird, and hilarious second season.
Those checking into the second season will be happy to know that Brooklyn Nine-Nine is still a funny show.
Peralta and the precinct are back: Brooklyn Nine-Nine's season premiere brings some big laughs, but a few faults from last season remain.
