Did you plant seeds of discord on the person by speaking ill of them to other people? Did you attempt to resolve the issue with that person or did you hold a grudge for years?
Proverbs 18:6-8 says, "A fool's lips bring him strife, and his mouth invites a beating. A fool's mouth is his undoing and his lips are a snare to his soul. The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts.
Has anyone ever said something negative to you, and you just wilted and felt like you had died inside? Perhaps they said beautiful words to you that aided you into blossoming like a flower.
This is the way of the tongue.
We must ask ourselves if the words we speak are life or death? Do they give us hope or discouragement?
In order to grow spiritually and with our relationships we must take notice to what we are saying, not just to our brethren, but also to ourselves.
Jesus said, "But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the Day of Judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned" (Matthew.12: 36-37).
By being Justified — we are being freed from all blame, we are without guilt and we are shown or proven to be right. Condemned means — to be pronounced unfit for use, guilty. By our own words we can be free from blame and without guilt, or we can pronounce ourselves guilty and unfit for the use of God.
Simply put, if it's the Word of God then it is Life, it is freedom. If it is ourselves speaking, it is death, and words of death will destroy, kill everyone that hears us; and not only they who hear us, but ourselves as well.
Proverbs 18:21 says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."
So I ask, what will it be — LIFE or DEATH.
It is good to know the dark side of things, so we can stand against the wiles of evil, but it is so much better to live and have our being in the positive.
We have to destroy the gossip, backbiting, lying and any talk that sows bad seeds in our lives and the lives of other people. Let us, therefore, tend to life with our tongue, which may seem to be an impossible task; but be assured with God all things are possible.
Keep the faith and stay encouraged. M.J.T. Love.

has anybody seen these begonias for sale yet? they are new this year and are a shrub begonia that tolerated temperatures down to 40 deg. F. If someone can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it. |

Are you sure you don't mean 'Breezy' begonias? If so, they were introduced this year, which means you won't really see them offered commercially until Spring of 2014. |

text: Dr. Franklin Johnston MANAGEMENT CONSULTANT, Dr. Franklin Johnston has replaced businessman Norton Hinds as chairman of the Jamaica Urban Transit Company (JUTC). Also, Mr. Sterling Soares, economist, replaces Commander John McFarlane on the board of the government-owned JUTC. The appointments became effective on Tuesday. Dr. Peter Phillips, Transport and Works Minister, in announcing the changes, said they were another step in the strengthening of the bus company's management structure. "We need to increase the capabilities of the JUTC to ensure that it can manage the expanded public passenger transport service in the Kingston Metropolitan Transport Region (KMTR) effectively," he said. There was a management shake-up at the JUTC last year as the government restructured the operations of the company, only months after it had acquired the Eastern Franchise. The changes were made in preparation for the government's acquisition of the franchises controlled by Ezroy Millwood's National Transport Co-operative (NTCS) and Arthur Chin's Conurban Transit Ltd. Managing partner Dr. Johnston, the new JUTC chairman, is a managing partner at Teape Johnson management consultants, and a former consulting partner with KPMG Peat Marwick. Mr. Soares is managing director of Antillean Import-Export Company Ltd., and also serves as a director of Solatt Ltd. and Ridgefield Investment Ltd. Mr. Hinds is the current chairman of the Transport Authority (TA), and Commander McFarlane is managing director. Dr. Phillips said both men had made significant contributions to the JUTC. However, he said, the changes were aimed at making a distinction between the operations of the bus company and the TA. "I am concerned that there ought to be a very clear separation of the roles and transactions between the Transport Authority and the JUTC," the minister was quoted as saying in a press release. Concerns had been raised over the two entities sharing key personnel given the fact that the JUTC has recently applied to the TA for an increase in bus fares.

Greg Marutani and Sharon Ishii-Jordan presenting a teacher training workshop
Educational Programs
The JACL is committed to the goal of educating our membership and the public at-large about the Japanese American historical experience and the lesson that the World War II internment holds for the future conduct of our government related to our Constitutional liberties.
Educational Materials
To accomplish its goal, the JACL publishes and distributes educational materials about the internment and about the Asian American historical experience. These materials include the curriculum guides A Lesson in American History: The Japanese American Experience and The Journey From Gold Mountain: The Asian American Historical Experience.
Teacher Workshops
The JACL also offers a teacher-training workshop titled What It Means To Be An American where experienced presenters prepare teachers to teach a unit on the Japanese American Internment. The workshop also focuses on the post-September 11th experience of Arab and Muslim Americans to demonstrate how prejudice and wartime hysteria influence the media and government during times of national crisis where issues of security are balanced against constitutional liberties.
The JACL teacher-training workshops are offered as Saturday sessions to groups of up to 50 teachers. For information on workshops, contact the JACL Midwest Office at firstname.lastname@example.com.
New Educational Resources
Anti-Defamation League Curriculum on Japanese American Internment
In commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, the Anti-Defamation League has developed a classroom curriculum about the Japanese American Internment. The curriculum and materials are intended to reduce prejudice by examining stereotyping and racial and ethnic discrimination.

Has anyone had success with this rose in the middle of NC? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by carolinakate z7b PiedmontNC (My Page) on Thu, Jun 2, 05 at 0:03
Forgot to ask: can it survive the winter in a container? |
It's a good rose, but you may need to spray something regularly to control black spot (sulfur, copper soap, or antitranspirant--see the FAQ). Roses in large pots are generally OK in zone 7b, but an extraordinarily hard cold spell might kill the roots. |
- Posted by carolinakate z7b PiedmontNC (My Page) on Thu, Jun 2, 05 at 20:16
Thanks, MichaelG. I'd like it on my patio against the brick of the house - southern exposure. I'm running out of full sun. K. |
- Posted by HollySprings 8a Mississippi (My Page) on Thu, Jun 2, 05 at 20:20
It's an awkward grower even under the best conditions. The canes are really stiff and upright and naked at the bottom. It's really best suited as a pillar type rose. And, yes, it will need spraying. That, and it's infection with RMV were why I shovelpruned it, despite it being a sentimental favorite. Altissimo provided my first blue ribbons in a rose show, and it is still a big winner in the climber class in many shows today. |
- Posted by carolinakate z7b PiedmontNC (My Page) on Fri, Jun 3, 05 at 8:23
It's the color that I'm after. Is there a better rose for this climate that has that bright red? I don't know how to name the color, but it's a more orange red than most red roses, and yet, it's not orange. |
Possibly Dame de Coeur, a small hybrid tea that is supposed to be disease resistant, or Ole (accent mark, I don't do floors or HTML). I haven't seen the Dame, but Patricia43 loves it, and she would be able to compare the color with Altissimo if you email her (see Antique Roses Forum). It is fragrant. Ole might be a little more orange than you want. |

Dame de Coeur is beautiful, but the description I read says it turns to burgundy. What do you think about Showbiz or Lichterloh? I would be able to find a place for these in the garden beds since they're so much smaller, so the container question isn't relevant. Just need to know if they would be good for no-spray. Thanks.

Showbiz or Trumpeter would work OK if you can tolerate some spots. Both have half decent disease resistance. The polyantha Leonie Lamesch has tones of that color red in it along with oranges and salmons. It's really a bright spot in the garden that defies categorization. The Kordes shrub Bischofsstadt Paderborn is also scarlet. It's got decent disease resistance, but is slow to get started. |

Thank you both so much! I am putting the question to my daughter who wants that particular color. I did find another Kordes in that color: Kordes Brilliant. Would this also be disease resistant here? You've been so helpful. Thanks again. K. |
Dang, I have been avoiding Dame de Coeur because I thought it would clash with my crimson roses, so thank you for that information. |

Michael G., I've always just categorized vermillion, scarlet and crimson as "red," and never took the time to find the difference. Now I see the need. (They weren't in the Crayola big pack when I was a kid.) However, even when colors are described in names I know, I discovered people don't always see things the same. And photos aren't always accurate either. Probably the safest way to be sure of the color is to see the blossom before buying. K. |

In typical SanDisk fashion the Ultra Plus ships in a tame package void of bright colors. The understated look goes well with SanDisk, but we have to admit it would look better with flames on the box or something of that sort.
The back of the package gives us a little detail on the drive, but as you may of noticed by now, we haven't mentioned any performance data at all. That's because SanDisk doesn't give any performance data at all on their website or on the package other than the website stating, "... read speeds up to 530MB/s..." It's really an odd way to market a SSD especially when on the brink of a price war.
In our reviewers guide we found a detail list of the specifications for the two highest capacity Ultra Plus models. What's interesting is although the Ultra Plus uses a four-channel controller, the 256GB model looks like it can run with the Extreme, a drive using the LSI SandForce SF-2281 controller.
Inside the package, we found a nice assortment of accessories. The 7mm to 9.5mm adapter bracket is under the SSD. All of the components get tucked into the package on the opposite side of the drive when packed so nothing is able to scratch the drive during shipping.

12 Days of Winter Veil Giveaway: Landro's Lil' XT loot codes {WoW}
Dec 15th 2011 9:05AM ohai!
Breakfast Topic: What do you listen to while playing? {WoW}
Dec 13th 2011 10:33AM I like to set the mood for specific things I'm doing.
For leveling, I'll usually throw on some Smooth Jazz or something fellow like Acoustic Alchemy, Boney James, Grover Washington Jr and such
For PvP, it's gotta be metal, anything from Metallica, Megadeth, Misery Signals, Dream Theater, Symphony X, Asking Alexandria, As I Lay Dying etc.
For Raiding I don't listen to anything, I would rather hear people on vent, and the DBM warnings.
Breakfast Topic: What's your favorite 5-man instance of all time? {WoW}
Dec 12th 2011 9:28AM Mine is probably The Forge of Souls. That music that comes on when you fight Bronjham is awesome.
Breakfast Topic: What won't you do for your group? {WoW}
Dec 12th 2011 9:17AM One thing I won't ever do? Hmm that's a tough one as I play a jack of all trade for my guild with my DK tank and dps, and my druid healer.
I guess one thing that I will probably never do again is play my paladin, I liked him during wrath, but truth be told, I'm not a fan of the Holy Power system.
Blue Posts and Other WoW News: Number of bosses, and an attitude that needs to sit in the corner {WoW}
Dec 8th 2011 9:10AM I loved when he said that they need more designers like this guy that knows exactly what to do xD that was priceless.
Breakfast Topic: How did you create your first character? {WoW}
Dec 8th 2011 9:08AM My cousin came over one night and was very excited about this new game he bought for his new computer. He arrived with World of Warcraft and began playing it. He made an Undead Warlock and he was running shadowfang keep, I was enthralled (lol). So later I started up my old POS computer and got the trial going, I made an Undead Priest named Denthanis, which stands for Demonic Chaos, and I ended up being a shadow/disc priest. Since then I haven't looked back, only for short spells have I quit.
Breakfast Topic: Do you enjoy using vanity items? {WoW}
Dec 5th 2011 9:16AM I used to really REALLY love that wizard hat you got from questing in Azshara that transformed you into something for an hour. But then blizz made it so you can' equip the hat, use it, then put on your regular helmet, you have to keep the hat on now.
It was fun while it lasted, I loved turning into a gnome hunter and what not just to see the different kind of animations that came along with it.
Tips for great success in the Raid Finder {WoW}
Dec 1st 2011 11:03AM I did the raid finder last night and I have to agree that it was beyond simple. for Morchak, only like 3 or 4 people even took the time to hit the crystal thing, when it's recommended for 7. And for Zon'ozz (SP?), playing ping pong was like playing with a brick wall. The trick on the ooze boss is when the raid warning comes up, the first displayed ooze color is the one you should preferably kill. and for the boss in EoE ... well that was just standing out of stuff, we didn't even make a good line for the lightning totems and it was over before I knew it.
Oh and I lost all my rolls D:
Patch 4.3: Hour of Twilight official patch notes {WoW}
Nov 29th 2011 9:59AM Characters that are already created won't need to have their name changed, the patch only applies to characters that are going to be created post 4.3.
Breakfast Topic: Which storyline do you want more of? {WoW}
Nov 28th 2011 11:15AM Yeah I haven't read Wolfheart yet, and I don't think I'm going to unfortunately :(. But Illidan is one of the most icon World of Warcraft characters there are, a re-emergence of Illidan could be quite interesting.

Among a certain species of migratory golfer, the map of Florida is divided up not so much by major city as by legendary golf resort. In the northeast corner of the state, near Jacksonville, there's Sawgrass; in the hub of Orlando lies Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill; and down in Miami stands Doral. But along the byways in between, hundreds of lesser-known courses beckon with charms of their own. From the Panhandle to Palm Beach, here's a rundown of some of the best.
Abacoa Golf Club, Jupiter
Just fifteen miles north of West Palm Beach, not far from the sacred ground of Seminole, this
Joe Lee design features some notable elevation changes (by Florida standards, at least), shifting
winds and terrific greens.
Yardage: 7,200. Par: 72. Greens Fees: $55$95. Tee Times: 561-622-0036, abacoagolfclub.com.
The Club at Hidden Creek, Navarre
A tree-lined layout of gently rolling terrain twenty minutes east of Pensacola, Hidden Creek
is challenging enough to serve as a U.S. Open qualifying site. It was designed by the prolific
Florida architect Ron Garl.
Yardage: 6,844. Par: 72. Greens Fees: $29$39. Tee Times: 850-939-4604, hiddengolf.com.
Crandon Park Golf Course, Key Biscayne
Until the tournament sponsor pulled out this year, this Robert Von Hagge/Bruce Devlin design
had hosted a Champions Tour event for years. Known for its steep greens and swirling winds,
Crandon Park opened in 1972 and remains the only course on Key Biscayne, the barrier island
off the coast of Miami. The course is owned and operated by Dade County.
Yardage: 6,842. Par: 72. Greens Fees: $59$149. Tee Times: 305-361-9120, miamidade.gov/parks/golf.asp.
Dunes Golfers Club, Brooksville
This is a tucked-away Arthur Hills course an hour north of Tampa, near Tom Fazio's renowned
World Woods complex. During the Second World War, the site was used as an Air Force target
range. When Hills arrived, he found the property pockmarked with sandy craters, many of which
evolved into bunkers on the golf course.
Yardage: 7,140. Par: 72. Greens Fees: $40$45. Tee Times: 352-596-7888, dunesgolfclub.com.
El Diablo Golf and Country Club, Citrus Springs
Woven through the lovely and isolated hardwood forests ninety miles northwest of Orlando,
El Diablo resembles the Garden of Eden far more than it does any underworld. The only thing
diabolical about this graceful Jim Fazio course, opened in 1998, is the pot bunker on the
par-three fifteenth, Florida's version of Pine Valley's "Devil's You-Know-What."
Yardage: 7,145. Par: 72. Greens Fees: $33$43. Tee Times: 888-886-1309, eldiablogolf.com.
Fernandina Beach Golf Club, Fernandina Beach
Located on Amelia Island, forty minutes north of Jacksonville, this municipal course is a
fine example of mid-twentieth-century minimalism: simple tee boxes, small greens and deep
bunkers set in an enchanted maritime forest. Two former club pros designed the three nines
here between 1956 and 1972. The layout is, by turns, quirky, monstrous and strategic.
Yardage: 3,940 (North); 3,683 (West); 3,318 (South). Par: 35 (North); 37 (West); 36 (South).
Greens Fees: $39$45. Tee Times: 800-646-5997.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Perseus!
Facts about Perseus
- Breed: Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Perseus's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Breed: Flat coat retriever mix puppy
Estimated Age: 4 mo
Estimated Weight: 15lbs
Temperament: Playful and loving puppy
Crate or Housetrained?: Working on crate and house training at foster home
Perseus is a playful puppy, he loves anyone and everyone. He gets along well with his foster moms other dogs both big and small. He loves to follow you around the house and thinks playtime is all the time. He is currently working on potty training. He does well in a crate. He would be a perfect family pet who is good with kids and is young enough to be acclimated to a house with cats.
The $85 adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, up-to-date vaccinations, microchip, rabies tag, heartworm test, and 1st month's flea/tick & heartworm preventative. Please complete an adoption application at www.sarocks.org, or email firstname.lastname@example.com if you would like to make this dog part of your family!
Other Pets at San Antonio R.O.C.K.S.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Perseus, a San Antonio Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie for sale in San Antonio, or seeking a Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie puppy from a breeder in San Antonio.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in San Antonio already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a San Antonio breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie breeders who help with Flat-Coated Retriever/Border Collie rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in San Antonio paves the way for another one to be saved.

Allow me to take a moment to denounce the ain't shitness of the parties responsible for the photo mash-up featuring a very pregnant Kim Kardashian having a style showdown against a killer whale. It took everything in me not to drop a tray of garlic crab legs (okay, not really) and wall slide to my death when the image tap danced across my Instagram feed over the weekend. The world wide web is fucking petty, darling. Loves it.

Walker Valley will play host to McMinn County's junior varsity Cherokee's Monday evening at 7.
After turning the ball over on downs, Bradley Central sophomore Tyler Carpenter intercepted a Hayden Spencer pass less than two minutes into the game. Taking over on the Mustangs' 41-yard line, Bears' quarterback Cole Copeland needed only two plays to find sophomore Swan Parker for a 48-yard touchdown strike with 5:16 on the clock. Following the extra point by Logan Snyder, Bradley jumped out to a 7-0 lead.
Walker Valley's second drive was cut short when Bradley's Jacob Williams jumped on a Mustang fumble. The miscue turned out to be for naught as the Stallions' defense stepped up to keep the young Bears out of the end zone. Walker Valley's Mason Oran more than made up for the earlier turnover by hitting pay dirt from 74 yards out with 1:26 left in the first frame. WV kicker David Thompson knotted up the score at 7-7 with the extra point.
Moving all the way to the 4:20 mark of the second quarter, Oran lost the handle on the ball for the second time in the game and Bradley's Canaan Bennett pounced on the ball at his own 38-yard line.
Copeland again orchestrated a long drive, taking the ball all the way to the 2-yard line. With just 14 seconds left in the half, the freshman signal caller pushed the ball across the goal line for the Bears' second score of the game. After another Snyder extra point, Bradley found itself up 14-7 at intermission.
The third quarter proved to be a defensive struggle both ways. Walker Valley did move the ball downfield with just over three minutes to go in the quarter, but Bradley's Miller Clark picked off Spencer in the end zone to squash the drive.
The final frame started out with a pair of three-and-outs before Bryce Nunnelly made it a one-point game on his 1-yard touchdown run. This time, Spencer found Oran in the corner of the end zone to convert a two-point conversion to give the Mustangs their first lead of the game 15-14 with 5:30 left to play.
The young Bears squad seemed unfazed by the sudden deficit as they moved down the field on the ensuing drive. Following a 30-yard pass from Copeland to sophomore Ryan Still, the Bears' freshman quarterback was called on again, scoring on a one-yard run this time to move the score back in Bradley's favor, 20-15. The Bears decided this time to go for two when Copeland scrambled left but was unable to convert with just 2:01 left in the game.
Spencer got the chance to live out every kid's dream, taking over with just under two minutes left at his own 27-yard line.
Following a couple of short runs, the Mustangs' drive was aided by a pass interference call that moved the ball down to the Bradley 38-yard line with 1:21 left on the clock. Oran again made up for the earlier hiccup by covering the final 38 yards to the end zone, giving his Mustangs a 21-20 lead. Walker Valley again chose to go for two, this time with Alex King carrying the rock across the goal line for a 23-20 lead and leaving just 36 seconds for Bradley Central to work with.
Bradley used a couple of quick sideline passes to move the ball and kill the clock. With the ball around midfield and 12 seconds on the clock, Copeland dropped back and threw a lateral to Carpenter, who then focused downfield looking for fellow sophomore Trevon Ware. A herd of Mustangs stampeded to the ball and Cooper Melton picked the ball out of the air to seal the victory for the visiting team.

PHOTO GALLERY: Taylor Lautner's GQ Outtakes
Taylor Lautner, not going shirtless for once?
Improbable, but it's true!
Check out these outtakes from Lautner's recent GQ photo-shoot, in which he models a variety of shirts and flashes that winning smile of his. Looking good, Taylor! (Oh, and if you absolutely must see Lautner exposing his upper bod, we have a little bit of that too.)
Click through the pics and share your opinion in the comments section: Do you prefer Taylor fully clothed, or sans shirt?

The Epidemic of Digital Distraction
Re:Interesting... (159 comments)
It's one of the more unreadable pieces of text I've come across recently... and given most of the competition for that prize is also online, that's saying something.
Not sure the author's theory/point really worked! If the article does read well to some people, that's rather worrying.

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Msibi, Happy Hazel email@example.com URN etd-08102007-135031 Document Title Studies toward the stereoselective synthesis of the C(10)-C(20) unit of the fumonisins using Sharpless methodology Degree MSc (Chemistry) Department Chemistry Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof R Vleggaar Keywords
- biochemistry
- fusarium moniliforme
- plants

- fumonisins
Date 2007-04-24 Availability unrestricted Abstract Fusarium verticillioides (=Fusarium moniliforme) a common fungal contaminant of maize throughout the world has been associated with diseases in both man and animals. The structure of the fumonisins, a family of structurally related mycotoxins isolated from cultures associated with the high incidence of human oesophageal cancer in the Transkei region in South Africa and with equine leucoencephalomalacia, a neurological disorder in horses and donkeys, has been established. The main mycotoxin, fumonisin B₁ consists of the diester formed by the C(14) and C(15) hydroxy groups of (2S,3S,5R,10R,12S,14S,15R,16R)-2-amino-12,16-dimethyleicosane-3,10,14,15-pentaol with the Si carboxy group of propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid.A comparison of the structures of the 28 known fumonisins isolated since 1988 reveals that they share a common structural motif for the C(11)–C(20) unit, and probably also the same stereochemistry for the 4 stereogenic centres present in this part of the C20 backbone. Disconnection of the C(9)–C(10) bond in a retrosynthetic analysis of the fumonisins identifies (3S,5S,6R,7R)-3,7-dimethylundecane-1,5,6-triol as a common building block for the synthesis of any of the fumonisins.
In the dissertation the retrosynhetic analysis of this 3,7-dimethylundecane-1,5,6-triol building block identifies a simple precursor, ethyl 2-heptenoate, as the starting material for the proposed synthetic route toward this target. The Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation reaction plays a pivotal role in this synthetic route as all 4 stereogenic centres present in the 3,7-dimethylundecane-1,5,6-triol target are generated by this methodology at three different stages of the proposed synthesis. The epoxy alcohol formed at each stage was subjected to regioselective ring opening followed by a protective group strategy which allowed for the protection of the secondary hydroxyl group as the benzyl ether and left the primary hydroxyl group, available after oxidation to the aldehyde, for a two-carbon chain extension to an α,β-unsaturated ester. This ester in turn was reduced to an allylic alcohol which formed the starting material for a second cycle of reactions. In this manner a synthetic route towards the target compound was developed and problems associated with the route investigated.
The dissertation shows that a viable route was developed with complete stereochemical control in the formation of the stereogenic centres, even though the final product, the protected 3,7-dimethylundecane-1,5,6-triol was not obtained due to time constraints and material shortages.

West Carroll Parliamentary Procedure Team at State
The West Carroll Varsity Parliamentary Procedure team competed at Illinois State University on March 30th. The team's placing was in the top 10 of the State. Chloe Carson was rated red ribbon chairperson. Christy Ralston was rated red ribbon secretary as well as white ribbon floor member. Collin Wilkinson was rated red ribbon floor member. Brianna Kampmeier, Dylan Williams, and Quinn Rumler were rated white ribbons for floor members also. The Parliamentary Procedure CDE consists of a member running a mock meeting and demonstrating motions. After the meeting each person on the team is asked a question based on their required motion. The 1st place team advances to National competition.
West Carroll FFA member, Janelle Dykstra, competed on April 6th at University of Illinois in the State Proficiency Awards. Janelle competed in the Poultry Production Enterprise category. She said, "I own and run a successful poultry production business. This year I raised 155 Golden Comet laying hens and sold the eggs to a local store." Janelle's exact placing was not given to our chapter but she did place in the top 5 of the state. In Proficiency Awards you are interviewed about your enterprise's record book. The record book contains all of your receipts, activities performed, purchases, and anything related to your project. Janelle also said that, " participating at the State level was a great experience and an opportunity of a lifetime."
On April 3rd, West Carroll FFA member, Cassie Johnson competed in the District #1 FFA Creed Speaking CDE held at Geneseo High School. She placed 3rd of 10 in the contest. Previously, Cassie competed at Section #1 Creed Speaking CDE where she placed 2nd places thus making her eligible to participate in District Competition. The FFA Creed consists of five paragraphs that must be memorized and presented to a panel of judges. After the creed is presented the speaker must answer a series of 6 random questions. The questions are based on different parts of the creed and the speaker's interpretation of the meaning. The top two individuals advance to state competition.
Section 1 Dairy Evaluation CDE
Mt. Carroll, IL. The Section 1 Dairy Evaluation Career Development Event (CDE) was held on Saturday, March 9th, 2013 at the Carroll County Highway Department. Seventy-one FFA members from ten Section 1 teams competed along with FFA members from Section 2, and 4-H members from around the area.
In this event, the FFA members develop skills needed for dairy cattle selection and herd management. Some of the many skills members will develop from participating include observation, confidence, and communication. In order to judge dairy animals, you must begin with the fundamentals. Learning the parts of the cow and the ideal conformation for each part will provide the necessary comparisons when placing classes.

Geographic Information
REGION: Mountain, though technically some areas are in the Piedmont
RIVER BASIN: Roanoke, Yadkin-Pee Dee
NEIGHBORING COUNTIES: Alleghany, Stokes, Wilkes, Yadkin
Surry County, located at the juncture of the Piedmont and Mountain regions of North Carolina and partially bordering the state of Virginia, was formed in 1771 from Rowan County and was named after either the English County of Surrey (birthplace of royal governor William Tryon) or the Saura (Cheraw) Indians who populated the area. Early inhabitants apart from the Saura were other Siouan Indians and the Cherokee, followed by English and German settlers. Dobson, the county seat, was incorporated in 1891 and was named for either William Dobson, a local justice of the peace in 1776, or William P. Dobson, a member of the General Assembly in 1814. Other communities in the county include Mount Airy, Level Cross, Ararat, Bottom, Elkin, and Toast. Pilot Mountain State Park is a much-visited natural site in Surry County, featuring a huge ancient quartzite stone monadnock visible for many miles. Flowing within Surry County are the Yadkin, Mitchell, and Ararat Rivers and numerous creeks, including Red Hill, Beaver, Toms, and Johnson. Mount Airy, "the Granite City," is home to the largest open-faced granite quarry in the world.
The original Siamese twins, Eng and Chang Bunker, are buried at White Plains Baptist Church. Notable among Surry County landmarks and historic sites is the downtown area of Mount Airy, Andy Griffith's hometown. The town boasts several structures connected to the fictional town of Mayberry in the Andy Griffith Show television series, including the Snappy Lunch, Old City Hall, Floyd's City Barber Shop, and the Andy Griffith Playhouse. Other cultural institutions include the Charles H. Stone Memorial Library, the Horne Creek Living Historical Farm, and the Foothills Theatre. The county hosts many festivals and annual events, such as the Surry County Agricultural Fair, the Autumn Leaves Festival, Mayberry Days, the Yadkin Valley Pumpkin Festival, and the Elkin Mid-Summer Invitational Tennis Tournament.
Surry County agricultural commodities include tobacco, corn, soybeans, strawberries, apples, swine, beef cattle, dairy products, sheep, and poultry. Manufactured products include hosiery, apparel, textiles, concrete blocks, polished granite, precision tools, blankets, and yarns. Mined in Surry County are minerals such as feldspar, quartz, and mica, in addition to granite. The population of the county was estimated at 72,200 in 2004.

A couple of days ago, Nicholas Zakas wrote an article about secure client side storage. I think the scenario he mentioned (working from a cyber cafe) is not unsafe by nature, and could be well handled by an application. Nonetheless, client side storage such as localStorage
still is subject to DNS spoofing attacks (which is the main security issue, I think). To handle this, one needs to encrypt the keys and values in the store.
So here you go: dojox.storage.encrypted
, a Blowfish encrypted storage. It sits on top of dojox.storage
, and you get all the dojo storage manager goodness, mainly the automatic selection of the best storage provider available. It exposes the complete API that dojox.storage
does. If an attacker gains access to the storage area, he can still nuke the storage, but the data found within will be useless.

''Forrest Gump'' over ''Pulp Fiction''? ''Crash'' over ''Brokeback Mountain''? ''Gandhi'' over ''E.T.''? Questionable choices, and the more-deserving films they beat out
I'm with Seinfeld's Elaine, urging Ralph Fiennes' burn victim in The English Patient to just...die! But even if you're more patient than I am, can we at least agree that a drip-drip-slow, Brit-tinged prestige picture adapted from a prestige book, laden with prestige performances, and directed with a gilt-edged bookmark, isn't nearly as Oscar-worthy as Jerry Maguire, a lively, all-American original story about the all-American love of sports and money, inspiring one of all-American Tom Cruise's best performances ever?

Microsoft Joins Cambridge TV White Spaces Consortium
Cambridge, England - Jun 27, 2011 - Representatives from some of the UK's largest technology and media companies announced today the formation of the Cambridge TV White Spaces Consortium. The group is undertaking technology trials to explore how the unused TV spectrum (white spaces) could provide a solution to satisfy the escalating wireless connectivity requirements of consumers and businesses in towns, cities and rural areas throughout the U.K. Experimental licenses have been granted by Ofcom (the U.K.'s equivalent to the FCC).
Members of the Consortium include Microsoft, the BBC, British Telecom, BSkyB, Nokia and Samsung, among others.
According to the Microsoft press release, the market for mobile bandwidth that serves phones, laptops, tablets and other smart devices is expected to increase 92 percent between 2011 and 2015. The consortium will test the new technologies under a variety of scenarios to assess how TV white spaces could be used to facilitate communications and information services; included will be the streaming high-quality video and audio content from the BBC and BSkyB over the TV white spaces spectrum to a range of mobile devices, including some from Nokia and Samsung. The TV white spaces hotspots will include local pubs, other leisure venues, and commercial and residential premises.
The consortium chose Cambridge for the trial because it has a long history in developing wireless communication technologies and offers an environment for testing diverse uses of the TV white spaces network. The city is distinguished by a dense mixture of buildings, including the historic stone buildings of its colleges, which offer a unique opportunity to demonstrate the penetration of TV white spaces signals when compared with other higher frequency networks such as Wi-fi.
It seems clear that the test results will have implications with respect to the proposed use of white spaces throughout the United States.

St. Anthony Sets $1 Million as Goal for Emergency Department Capital Campaign Wednesday, 05 August 2009 St. Anthony Foundation is embarking on a community capital campaign to raise $1 million for the hospital's emergency department renovation project which is currently underway. Three couples on the committee, pictured above, are (from left) Jim and Donna Riesberg, Gary & Charlene Rupiper, and Becky and Jim Venner. A capital campaign with several types of gift options is being developed to offer giving opportunities that suit individual needs. "Gifts and pledges of cash or other assets are typically requested in area capital campaigns." said Gary Riedmann, St. Anthony President. "We want to invite people to participate in this campaign who are sometimes overlooked as potential donors; those who may want to donate corn, beans, livestock or other commodities. Assets such as these make great charitable gifts" The $4 million project was approved by the hospital board of directors in 2008 to address increased usage, and concerns for the security and privacy of patients, families and staff. The number of patients who use St. Anthony's emergency services grew from 5,767 visits in 2005 to an expected 7,140 visits in 2009. Part of this growth is the result of St. Anthony's decision to provide the community continuous on site availability of emergency physician coverage. The Emergency Department expansion project will increase needed space for trauma treatment and address current 1970 building design concerns for patient, family and staff privacy and security issues. A campaign leadership committee is being established and includes the following individuals: Dr. Richard & Mary Jane Collison, Marty & Gail Greving, Joe & Claudia Halbur, Mike & Cindy Haubrich, David & Karen Klocke, Urban & Jean Knobbe, Jeff & Dawn Koster, Gary & Sandy Loeffelholz, Don & Jean Pottroff, Jim & Donna Riesberg, Gary & Charlene Rupiper, Wayne & Shirley Seaman, David & Sylvia Sporrer, Rollin & Verna Tiefenthaler, Jim & Becky Venner and Paul & Rita Ann Venner. Additional names will be added as the campaign proceeds. For more information, please contact Gary Riedmann, St. Anthony President, or Trish Roberts, St. Anthony Development Director at (712) 794-5223. Last updated ( Monday, 17 August 2009 ) |
