General Francis Marion Hotel Receives
Historic Preservation Award
Richmond , VA – Earlier this month, a committee of statewide preservationists convened at the Richmond office of APVA Preservation Virginia for the challenging task of determining the winners of the 2007 Virginia historic preservation awards. Since 1971, the APVA has presented these awards to deserving individuals, civic and preservation groups, and governmental agencies that have contributed to the effort of preserving the Commonwealth's historic resources.
The committee presented The General Francis Marion Hotel in Marion , Virginia with the prestigious Gabriella Page Historic Preservation Award. The Page awards, which honor the memory of Gabriella Page, APVA President from 1944 to 1947, are presented for outstanding preservation efforts on the part of organizations or individuals.
The General Francis Marion Hotel is widely recognized as a gem in Marion 's historic downtown district. Built in 1927, the hotel has been an architectural and social anchor for Marion for over four generations. The five-story Classical Revival hotel was named in honor of the famed Revolutionary War hero who is also the town's namesake. The hotel was recently renovated and restored to its original grandeur by Marion residents, Joe and Susie Ellis .
Only three other Gabriella Page Historic Preservation Awards were presented throughout Virginia : Prince William County Historic Preservation Division for the restoration of the Brentsville Courthouse Historic Centre; Robert W. Glenn, Jr. for the State and City Building in Roanoke ; and The Prizery, a South Boston community arts center.
The APVA ( www.apva.org) presented the 2007 preservation awards on 30 January during the legislative reception at St. Paul 's Episcopal Church in Richmond . The reception was the culminating event of Virginia Preservation Day. The day's activities included a legislative orientation, a tour of Monumental Church by the Historic Richmond Foundation, and the opportunity for participants to visit the Virginia General Assembly and meet with legislators.
Other awards received recently by the General Francis Marion Hotel include the Blue Ridge Travel Association's Tourism Business of the Year for 2006 and the Virginia Downtown Development Association's Award of Excellence for Building Development and Improvements.

Health and Wellness
Students interested in careers in the health and wellness area may select from a variety of pathways:
Williston State College offers the following degrees and certificates:
Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.)
The Associate in Applied Science degree combines career-technical
coursework with general education coursework. In the career-technical
specialty field, the degree prepares students for jobs. The general education
area provides broader education than would be available in a certificate
or diploma program with at least 15 credit hours of general education
required, but typically does not meet the 36 credit hour General Education
Transfer Agreement (403.7) requirements. The A.A.S. requires a minimum of
62 semester credit hours, and it may designate a specific field of study.
Associate in Arts (A.A.) and Associate in Science (A.S.)
These associate degrees consist primarily of diverse, introductory-level
courses in general education and professional areas and require at least
62 semester credit hours. Required courses for the A.S. degree place
greater emphasis on the sciences than is true of the A.A. Both degrees
prepare students for transfer to baccalaureate programs and meet General
Education Transfer Agreement (403.7) requirements. They do not designate
a specific program or major.
Program Diploma
A program diploma represents completion of a prescribed program of two years or less in a career-technical field with some general education course work.
Program Certificate
A program certificate is a specialized course of study requiring at least 16 credit hours at the undergraduate level or 8 credit hours at the graduate level.
Certificate of Completion
A certificate awarded for the completion of:
1.A non-credit course of study, or
2.An undergraduate course of study of less than 16 credit hour

 CHICAGO HEIGHTS, IL – The Ancilla College volleyball team lost in three sets at Prairie State College on Tuesday by the scores of 8-25, 23-25, 17-25 in Chicago Heights, IL.
The Lady Chargers (1-2) committed 24 hitting errors on the night, struggling to adjust to a taller Prairie State team.
"Prairie State dominated at the net, hitting over the top of the block and our defense struggled to make adjustments," said Ancilla volleyball coach Lana Singleton.
Miranda Hammons led the Lady Chargers with eight kills while Kristen Trudell posted 16 assists. Danielle Burge led the team in digs with 16.
The Lady Chargers return to action September 8 when they host MCCAA Western Conference rival Kalamazoo Valley Community College in the first match of the conference season. Play begins at 6:30 p.m. EDT.

As I type this I'm still waiting on a phone interview that was suppose to start at 1pm est, it is now 18 mins past that time. This company has pretty much strung me along for two months. Telling me I was qualified and they were offering me a position, moments later via email I was told I was not qualified. Cool, off to the next opportunity. Then two days later I'm told they want to me to apply for a different position, again cool. Told I'm qualified and would receive a call, never received a call, instead received an email stating I would not be offered a position. Then about three weeks later told to apply for the position of Tax Software Technician, which I foolishly did since I'm seriously looking for employment. Was told the same day I applied and recorded my answers to 9 questions that I was qualified and to be on the look out for an email from them(although this was sent via email). Received an email the next day told to select a time for a phone interview for the next day(which is today August 26, 2014). I selected my time of 1pm and now 22 minutes later they still have not called. I must say this was the final straw, although truth be told the run-a-round from before should have been.

When you manage to first fill out an Application, there will be two separate assessment test. The first one is the Basic Personality you see on EVERY job Application. The second one, is timed, and the Questions are truly Endless. The purpose is to see how many right answers you can get in the time allotment. For me, when it was done, the recruiter called me 2 Hours later for an Overview of the Job and Screening of the applicant. This purpose I extremely appreciate, because they basically describe the job and pay before scheduling the Interview; this saves time & gas, just in case it's a position you're not interested in.

Cheese-Stuffed Portobellos — Meatless Mondayby Maria Russo in Recipes, April 23rd, 2012
An ingredient nearly as beefy as meat, portobello mushrooms are hearty, earthy vegetables that can be roasted, grilled, sautéed and more. Once you break off their stems, portobello mushroom caps are roughly the same size and shape of the average pancake, and can hold their form when cooked. This durability means that they are often treated like meat patties. Paula features them in her Portobello Mushroom Burger, finished with a pesto mayonnaise and peppery arugula.
Food Network Magazine's stuffed mushroom (pictured above) boasts a filling of vitamin-rich spinach, fresh tomato and pecorino and mozzarella cheeses. After the caps are quickly broiled, they are topped with the spinach mixture and creamy ricotta cheese, and are cooked again until the stuffing is warm. Serve each mushroom with a refreshing celery salad for a quick but satisfying weeknight dinner.

Here is some info I recently became privy too. It's one of those "so simple things."
######################################## ############
This info was copied from V a r a n u s . n l

The author is Dr. Danny Brown
Again, it was NOT written by anyone here. It is posted on another website!

Hemipenal transillumination as a sexing technique in Varanids
By Dr Danny Brown
In 2007, Davis and Leavitt adapted a means of checking for gravidity in the very small skink species Xantusia vigilis as a means of sexing these very small skinks. I have adopted this technique (which I have called Hemipenal Transillumination technique or HTI technique) and have subsequently utilised it for sexing over 60 species of Australian lizards at various ages including dragons, geckos, monitors and skinks. The technique can be used on adults and juveniles and does not require that the individuals are sexually mature before the characteristics are visible. Like any technique, practise makes perfect and regular examination of individuals of known gender can allow you to develop a feel for what to expect and for which instrumentation works best for which species.
The technique is as follows :
The animal is positioned on its back so that the tail is directed towards the handler. A small, focussed, very bright (but non heat producing) light source is positioned behind the dorsal side of the tail to direct a beam of light through the tail base. I have found that visualisation is improved if the light beam is directed only behind the tail i.e. stray light around the edges of the tail are limited. This light allows the internal anatomy of the tail base to be visualised. In male lizards, the hemipenes are visualised both by their increased blood supply compared to adjacent tissue and the increased density of tissue in this area. They will be seen as either red dots, red ovals or as a dull redness. The latter refers to an overall red glow in the tail base. This is caused by a combination of an increase in blood supply and tissue density in the tail base (dorso-ventral thickening to accommodate the hemipenes) and degrees of shadowing (limiting light penetration) and luminance (as the light penetrates the hemipene and shines through what essentially becomes a red light filter) that creates an appearance of an overall red glow. In a female, an absence of red structures and a general yellowish glow is observed (as the light is only penetrating pure tail tissue). In some adults, the appearance will vary with mood, body temperature and breeding season depending on factors such as seasonal hemipenal size, voluntary extrusion of hemipenes , tail position and hemipenal blood supply changes (often one will appear more engorged than the other).
The primary limitations of this technique are light intensity and tissue penetration of light. These two go hand in hand to some degree in that specimens with a dorso-ventral tail diameter of 8-10 mm or smaller are the most ideal candidates for this technique. Specific features such as heavy dorsal pigmentation, heavy dorsal scalation , tail thickness >8-10 mm and handling difficulties may also limit this technique although technique modifications (such as side on viewing) can be used to work around this. The side on technique involves (as the name suggests) placing the light source against the side of the tail. In those species where this technique is warranted due to dorsal visualisation issues, male exhibit the dull redness as described above whilst females exhibit a clean yellow glow. In species with lateral flattening of the tail and its base, such as water monitors, side on viewing through this significantly narrower area of tissue may allow hemipenes to be observed in the same detail as if the light is dorsally directed (as in other species).
I maintain two torch types, an incandescent or halogen bulb producing a yellowish light and an LED torch producing bright white light. In some species, tail density is too thin for the use of an LED light as the light blasts straight through whereas an incandescent bulb produces a less harsh light that enhances the hemipenes more appropriately. In larger or spiny species, an incandescent bulb may be too subtle and a LED light is require to blast past the impediments to visualisation. The reduction of light scatter around the edges of the tail can also improve visualisation. This may be easily overcome using thick tape over the torch lens (with a viewing holes cut centrally) or by placing a cap over the torch end (plastic chair leg rubbers are ideal) with a viewing hole cut centrally. Oval shaped viewing holes are preferred over round ones. Technically, a purpose built sexing table or box could also be built and may allow a much larger torch to be used (or alternatively a dimmable electric globe). Be very careful with excessively intense light sources as these may also produce significant heat and may cause heat damage to the tail if the animal is left in position for an excessive period. The darker the room that the technique is used in, the better the visualisation. In the field, I have used this technique inside a dark backpack with good results.
In summary, using this technique in monitors has produced the following results :
Very easy with small arboreal species (e.g. V. bushi, V. gilleni, V. caudolineatus).
Small terrestrial species (e.g. V. storri, V. brevicauda, V. primordius) are quite easy up to 10 mm tail thickness.
Juveniles of many smaller species sexable from 5 cm snout to vent length.
Juveniles of larger species may be sexed as long as tail thickness is > 10 mm. I have only had the opportunity to trial a single larger species being a 3 month old V. spenceri but in this specimen hemipenes were clearly visible (using a side on technique).
Some species may partly evert hemipenes when handled (e.g. V. primordius and V. brevicauda are notorious) making them difficult to visualise in this state (they are essentially tucked up under the cloacal rim but not visible externally) . This can be overcome by sexing whilst cooled or by placing light pressure at the hemipenal base with a finger to stop the hemipenes being extruded.
Hemipenes in adults will appear as long red ovals except if partly extruded (when they will be seen as red dots very close to the cloacal edge). In juveniles they may appear as thin ovals but are more commonly represented by red "dots".
Larger species can be sexed side on and males will appear as a dull redness rather than a yellow clear glow.
Sexing of an adult male V. storri using HTI
Sexing of an adult female V. storri using HTI
Sexing of an juvenile male V. storri using HTI
Sexing of an juvenile female V. storri using HTI
I would welcome feedback from anybody with regards to the use of this technique in any other species(that I have not had access to for trials), particularly V. prasinus, glauerti, kingorum, pilbarensis and the larger monitor species.

Vermont's Rumsfeld strategyJuly 06,2014Stefan Hard / Staff File Photo
Transportation is among the major contributors to carbon emissions and global warming. This heavy traffic is seen on Route 2 in East Montpelier during the morning commute.In his 2004 book Against All Enemies, President George W. Bushs counterterrorism advisor Richard Clarke described a meeting with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld that took place shortly after the 9/11 attacks.
Rumsfeld complained that there were no decent targets for bombing in Afghanistan, so the United States should consider bombing Iraq, which, he said, had better targets.
Mr. Clarke observed that Rumsfelds strategy of bombing Iraq in response to the 9/11 attacks would be like our invading Mexico after the Japanese attacked us at Pearl Harbor.
Vermonts approach to combating climate change might have been designed by Donald Rumsfeld. We are bombing the wrong targets.
According to the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources, the top three sources of greenhouse gas emissions are transportation, heating and agriculture. Together, they account for 88 percent of the states emissions. The carbon footprint of our electricity consumption is puny, accounting for only 5 percent of our emissions.
Why is it that we obsess about electricitys 5 percent? Its because electricity has better targets.
Better targets means theres more big money for utilities, developers and equipment manufacturers in large-scale electricity generation and transmission projects than there is in working on our heating or transportation footprints.
These corporate interests have lobbied hard to persuade Vermonters that electricitys 5 percent is more important than the other 95 percent of our carbon footprint. Elected officials and the states biggest environmental groups have fallen in line to help whip the public into such a frenzy that many accept that destroying our mountains by building industrial power plants on them will reverse climate change and prevent another Tropical Storm Irene.
The Big Green Alliance of Green Mountain Power, politicians and environmentalists tell us that if we bomb enough of the wrong targets, we will achieve our objectives. But the primary objective of GMP is not reduction of carbon emissions; it is increased sales, profits, and perpetuation of its business model.
The apparent objective of politicians is to avoid the tough truths about the way we live by telling us we can plug all of our wastefulness into a different electrical outlet an outlet thats powered by unreliable electricity from ridgeline wind turbines. The objectives of our so-called environmental groups? The composition of their boards of directors might give a clue.
Heres the sales pitch. Let us (the utilities and energy developers) put 500-foot tall turbines and massive solar fields wherever we want on sensitive ridgelines, in wetlands, and on prime agricultural soils. Well string transmission lines all over the place. We will encroach upon whatever neighbors happen to be in the way. Dont worry, it probably wont be you. In exchange, you can step up your electricity consumption, power your car, and heat your home guilt-free, using clean electricity.
What? You dont have an electric car? Thats not surprising. Electric vehicles are too expensive, take too long to charge, and get very few miles per charge. Cold weather degrades their performance. The most enthusiastic promoters of EVs are scaling their sales forecasts back. Way back. Automakers are preparing to leapfrog electric vehicles with fuel cell vehicles. Anybody want a second-hand EV charging station? How about a Betamax? Hardly been used.
What about electric heat? GMP is pushing ductless air-source heat pumps. Such a heat pump can heat an individual room by operating like an air conditioner in reverse. Heres what the U. S. Department of Energy says about air-source heat pumps:
They do not generally perform well during extended periods of sub-freezing temperatures. In regions with sub-freezing winter temperatures, it may not be cost-effective to meet all your heating needs with a standard air-source heat pump.
For many of us, a pellet boiler may be a far better solution: They cost less to operate, can heat entire houses (not just rooms), and can provide domestic hot water (as can solar hot water systems). Converting oil and propane users to pellets would provide economic as well as environmental benefits to Vermonters.
So should we continue to bomb the wrong targets by continuing to build massive wind and solar facilities in anticipation of widespread adoption of EVs and heat pumps?
Absolutely not.
Even if electric transportation and heating technologies were to become suitable for use in Vermont, it would take an additional 10 to 15 years for them to penetrate the market to the point where theyd factor into our energy planning. By then, the Sheffield, Lowell and Georgia Mountain turbines will have reached the ends of their lives and will have been torn down.
They wont be replaced because better, cheaper, less harmful energy alternatives will be available. The turbine sites will have been permanently damaged and we will wonder why we were in such a hurry to destroy our mountains for a few years of intermittent, very expensive electricity.
Our state governments obsession with electricity guarantees that our progress toward reducing carbon emissions will be meager, at best. Furthermore, governments blind support of utility-scale renewables assures that our progress, meager as it will be, will also be expensive, destructive, divisive, and slow.
High electricity prices and the corrosive drip-drip-drip of bad news will continue to undermine public confidence in the states energy policies: curtailments, a $10 million synchronous condenser, disappointing electricity production, double-counting RECs, shoddy treatment of neighbors, noise violations, adverse health impacts, permits to kill endangered species, poor siting choices, stormwater runoff catastrophes, forest fragmentation, degradation of wetlands and ag soils, rewards for poor business decisions, a revolving door between government and the energy industry, and on and on and on.
So, the next time you hear someone promoting emissions reduction through a large-scale, high-impact power project a politician, a utility spokesman, an energy developer, or someone who claims to represent the public interest remember that electricity accounts for a tiny portion of our carbon footprint.
Think about what we could accomplish if we were really serious about carbon reduction. Then remember all the great times we had bombing the wrong targets with Don Rumsfeld.

CareFusion's Technologies Meet Health Care Needs
Its forward (one-year) PE ratio is less than 14, which suggests the stock price has room to run. That said, the price per share has come a long way (up over 23%) since its Nov. 16, 2012, intraday low of $26.34. Remember that CFN doesn't pay a dividend yet, but that could change as its levered free cash flow rises above the current level of almost $611 million.
Investors may be prudent to consider accumulating shares on the inevitable pullbacks and market down days. Along with its former parent Cardinal Health, CareFusion is a company that knows how to meet the medical and health care market's needs and to "ring the register" while doing so.

Have about 180,000 miles. Runs as good as ever, except the check engine light came on and the fan started making a very loud whine noise and does not stop. This is the second time it's happened. Someone removed cabin air filter at some point and never replaced it. Gas cap seems fine. Leak somewhere in AC system so that no longer works. Just want to get the fan problem fixed for now.

Digitally enhanced PDF images of the original special census schedules. These 1890 records may be of immense value to those researching Union Veterans or their surviving spouses. A few "Rebel" soldiers were included in rare instances. These census schedules may include the name of the Union Veteran soldier, sailor or marine, his widow if he is deceased, his rank, the name of regiment or vessel in which he served, date of enlistment, date of discharge, post office address (usually a town name), disability incurred, and remarks. Also usually included are Supervisor and Enumerator Districts, township and county of residence as enumerated in June of 1890.
The original 1890 Census Population Schedules were destroyed during a fire in the Department of Commerce Building in Washington, DC in 1921. This leaves a 20-year gap from 1880 to 1900 in census resources for genealogists tracing their families through that time period. These special census schedules are almost all that remain of enumeration for that year.
Of course, these census images have the same advantages and problems as other census records, including possibly poor original quality, difficult handwriting, enumerators who often could not spell, etc. But the sum of the information included is probably not available from any other source. Number of listings varies per county. Blank pages were not deleted, the file is the same as the corresponding microfilm roll.
We added an index to counties to help you navigate. You need at least Adobe 5 Reader for this CD.
