The DC Labor Chorus in Joyful Solidarity 2013
On December 1st, "Joyful Solidarity" was the theme this year as the voice of the DC area labor movement closed out 2013 with favorite songs (holiday and other) selected by various Chorus members, along with sacred songs from a range of faith and cultural traditions. The audience was also treated to our ever-popular medley of holiday carols … reworked to make you laugh out loud as you think about how we move through our communities and the world in which we live.
There were two FREE concerts (at 3 and 7:30 pm) that day. The two show times gave people a chance to come before holiday festivities or after. We hope that the progressive music lovers who've made the DC Labor Chorus's annual Winter concert one of their favorite holiday traditions enjoyed the concert! We hope to post some photos of this energizing day soon, so stay tuned.
If you would like to support the chorus you can purchase their music from the Labor Heritage Foundation store by clicking here.

News Release 080
Department of Natural Resources oversees mercury cleanup at Lebanon High School
Volume 38-080 (For Immediate Release)
Contact: Judd Slivka
573-751-1010/573-340-9DNR (9367) (after hours)
JEFFERSON CITY, MO, FEB.20, 2009 -- Emergency responders from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources are investigating a mercury release at Lebanon High School.
Responders from the department's Southwest regional office were dispatched after the department was notified at approximately 2:40 p.m. Friday by the high school's nurse that an amount of mercury had been released as school was being dismissed for the weekend.
Department responders advised district officials to isolate and ventilate the area. When Department responders arrived, they discovered mercury in three locations in the school. DNR staff has been working with staff from the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and the Laclede County Health Department Office of Emergency Management to remediate the situation.
According to the Department of Health and Senior Services' Bureau of Environmental Epidemiology, any possible health issues for students will depend on their length and level of exposure to mercury vapors. People who are concerned about potential exposures may contact the joint information center that is being coordinated by the Laclede County Health Department, Office of Emergency Management and Lebanon R-3 at 417-532-6992 for more information on mercury exposure or their personal physician for medical concerns. The center will be staffed from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday.
Lebanon Public Schools will have updated information on the status of classes on Monday on its website: http://www.lebanon.k12.mo.us. Students and parents will be notified of updates via the school's telephone notification system.
Metallic mercury is liquid at room temperature and has no odor. It was once commonly used in thermometers, barometers, switches and blood-pressure measuring devices.
When spilled, some of the metal will evaporate into the air and can be carried long distances. Mercury is toxic when inhaled. Improper clean up with a vacuum, paintbrush or household cleaner increases exposure by dispersing the mercury into the air. For more information on cleaning up mercury spills, see the department's website: /env/mercury-cleanup.htm.
To report an environmental emergency, including mercury spills, please the contact the Department of Natural Resources' spill line at 573-634-2436. For more information about the Missouri Department of Natural Resources contact the department at 800-361-4827 or 573-751-3443, or visit the department's Web page at dnr.mo.gov.

Welcome to My World!
Thread painting is a newly recognized form of art rapidly gaining popularity. It is expressed through fabric, fibers and quilting skills employing a free-motion application of thread using a sewing machine. From a blend of various embellishment techniques, beautiful works of art are created.
As my style evolved and my thread painting passion grew, I wanted to share it with others. While teaching classes in various venues I frequently encounter students who lack the confidence to try their hand. My favorite bit of advice is to say, "Yes, you can do this!" and it always proves to be true. Once they get involved students love this form of expression, and I enjoy watching them master the skills to advance on their own.
Allow me to show you how thread painting works! To inquire about classes or the information shown on this site, please use my contact information below. I look forward to hearing from you.

text: The last time Wylie met Rowlett was in 2005 at Homer B. Johnson Stadium. The Eagles rocked a very good 4A Pirates squad 42-24 behind hard-hitting linebacker Jared Norton (currently starting for the Longhorns) and bruising tailback Andre Pierce. The Eagles gained some distinction last fall when they knocked District 9-5A champion Allen out of the playoffs in the bi-district game; one of several upsets that occurred at Texas Stadium that day. They kicked off the 2008 campaign with an overtime win over North Mesquite 34-33. They eclipsed Rockwall 24-16 the following week but lost to Carrollton Creekview 37-21 last Friday. The loss came as a surprise to some, but Creekview (3-0 record) is an up-and-coming program, and the Eagles were playing short-handed having six players out with injury. Pirates' head coach Bill Howard said, "This is a formidable 5A team that just didn't play very well last week. Rowlett can take it to the house any time, and their secondary is the fastest we will see as a whole. They could take our passing game away. They could put our defense in a bind. It comes down to what we can do on offense and execution." Last year's young squad is now a roster full of veterans, and they have tremendous speed on both sides of the ball. Injuries have plagued Rowlett since they lost their starting quarterback before the season even began. Scott West has had some success since taking the reins. He's a good passer but has not proven to be an effective run. Running back Dexter Imade (5-11, 180) is a huge playmaker. He is averaging 180 yards per game and rolled up 200 yards in the second half alone against the Yellowjackets. Stephen Ross (5-11, 175) leads all receivers. He had 100 yards each in the first two games. Another receiver, Marquise Goodwin (5-8, 155), is a proven speedster who earned five state track medals this past spring. He is explosive on punt and kickoff returns. Standouts in the Eagles secondary are Marquale Pierson, Hilbert Jackson and Kyle Clemons.

Courtney Stodden Says She Calls Her Husband Dad On VH1′s Couples Therapy
2:25: Courtney: I call him Dad instead of Doug sometimes on accident. Doug: See this is the thing, I'm raising my wife.
Huffington Post – Ever since Courtney Stodden married then-51-year old actor Doug Hutchinson back when she was only 16-years-old, she's been auditioning for a reality show. The couple finally got what they wanted, appearing in the new season of VH1′s "Couples Therapy." Right away, there was plenty to explore about the couple. "I call him dad instead of Doug," Courtney said. Doug responded, "See? This is the thing. I'm raising my wife." A 34-year age difference could make things feel that way, perhaps.
The mere fact that VH1 felt the need to sign up other couples for this show is baffling. This show could be 3 hours a day, 7 days a week and Courtney Stodden and her cradle robbing husband could fill up the whole series by themselves. Whats even more creepy about these two is that this guy is really trying to make this be a functioning relationship. Like he's actually talking all eloquently and intelligently about trying to compromise with her and make things work. How fucking crazy is that? At least she just runs around like the 17 year old slut that she is playing Halloween every day looking for attention. He's actually worried about the long term repercussions for their marriage.
Thats just some loony tunes shit. Hey bro – SHE CALLS YOU DAD. You admitted that you're raising your own wife because she's such a young dumb whore. Wake the fuck up! Just play Halloween with her and fuck her 6 ways from Sunday every night and ride the wave until she inevitably OD's. No amount of advice from the dude from Loveline is gonna make this shit work.
PS – Out of all the completely wacked out, fucked up shit going on, this dude having designs shaved into the side of his head like he's Anthony fucking Mason might be the most ridiculous part.

Abstract -
We present an approach to service provisioning with Quality of Service (QoS) requirements in ATM networks.
The ATM network provides a set of services. It offers its resources (bandwidth and buffers) directly for rent, and users purchase freely these resources to meet their QoS requirements defined by the maximum call loss and the maximum end-to-end delay for each type of service. The network sets prices for its resources and users make decisions (request resources) based on these prices, their own traffic parameters, and their QoS requirements. The above procedure is iterative and is shown to converge to a resource allocation that optimizes a social welfare function consisting of the network revenue and the users' surplus.
Our approach has the following features: (i) it does not require the network to know the userUs traffic and QoS requirements; and (ii) users can determine resource requests using only their private information and the prices for resources announced by the network.
The results of this talk have been obtained in collaboration with Mr. Panagiotis Thomas.

According to Tony Dunn, public information officer for the Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol's Troop D, a man he identified as Thomas Williams of Oakland, Tennessee, died in a one car accident in the southbound lane last Friday at 1:57 p.m.
According to Dunn, Williams was a passenger in a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe driven by Karen Williams of Oakland, Tennessee.
"As she was attempting to pass a vehicle her vehicle traveled to the left colliding with a guard rail," Dunn said. "After impact her vehicle traveled airborne over the guard rail and onto a county road that runs below the interstate."
The vehicle flipped and came to rest on Grenada's Carrollton Road in South Grenada County near the Carroll County line.
Dunn said Karen Williams along with a passenger Kristina Fluckner were both transported to University Medical Center in Jackson by Medstat EMS with possible life threatening injuries.
Thomas Williams was pronounced dead at the scene by Grenada County Coroner Eddie Robinson.
Thomas Williams' son Dan Williams is the starting defensive tackle for the Arizona Cardinals, and the family was en route from Tennessee to New Orleans to the see the NFL game.
The accident is still under investigation by the Mississippi Highway Patrol, according to Dunn.

By TOM CALLIS
Tribune-Herald staff writer
Shooting stars will streak across the night sky late Sunday and early Monday morning, providing plenty of "ooh" and "aah" moments but also an opportunity for observatories on Mauna Kea to focus their telescopes.
The Perseid meteor shower occurs each year in August as the Earth plows through debris left by Comet Swift-Tuttle.
The best viewing will be after midnight Sunday, said Peter Michaud, spokesman for the Gemini Observatory.
The moon will set by midnight, providing excellent conditions for viewing, he said. That is, assuming there's little cloud cover.
The shower also provides the Gemini Observatory, as well as others on the mountain, with a unique opportunity.
As the meteors burn up, they leave behind gases high up in the atmosphere.
By shooting lasers into the night sky, the observatories can use the gas, particularly sodium, to create artificial stars.
These "guide stars" are then used to adjust their adaptive optics systems.
"Believe it or not, there aren't enough stars in the sky for astronomers," said Chad Trujillo, who heads Gemini's AO program, in a press release.
Gemini will use five lasers to create an artificial constellation on the night sky.
The lasers will not be viewable away from the observatory, Michaud said.
"You have to be right up to the telescope to see it," he said.
The AO systems allow large telescopes to see with better clarity. They are a must for the planned Thirty Meter Telescope and other state-of-the-art observatories, Michaud said.
As telescopes get larger, Trujillo said in the press release, "they must look through a wider column of air. The wider the column of air, the more turbulence in the air will distort the observed light. Using laser guide stars gives us a reference so we can correct for that turbulence and see things with amazing clarity from the ground."
The meteor shower tends to radiate from the Perseid constellation, but don't worry about locating those stars to find the shower, Michaud said.
"If you look straight up, you will see them," he said.

Los Amigos Invisibles, at La Covacha Next Week
Categories: Concert Preview
For example, did you know that in addition to releasing eight or so of some of the most unique Latin alternative records one could hope to find, these boys from Caracas once slapped dictator Hugo Chavez's mother? It's true! And beyond pioneering a dance hybrid that utilizes funk, soul, acid jazz, and even Brazilian sounds driven by electronica, the recent-native Chulius and co. effectively proved the wormhole theory. And if that's not impressive enough, George Carlin once manifested himself to them in futuristic clothing, whilst time-traveling in a phone booth, only to relate the news that their music would one day unite the whole world under the banner of peace. So, that should pretty much seal the deal on you wanting to pay a measly $15 to catch them at La Covacha a week from today, right?
Oh, and before I forget... jhdaskflhasdlfhalsdfahlfjkabsdjcafdjvbadllsdkfhslkdfhjklsxfl
Los Amigos Invisibles. 10 p.m. Friday, February 26. La Covacha, 10730 NW 25th St., Miami. Tickets cost $20 in advance from wantickets.com. Age 18 and up. 305-300-2267; lacovacha.com

Show in Stage II explores relationship between art and theatre design
Jaroslav Malina Paintings and Designs will be in Stage II of Ohio State Limas Martha W. Farmer Theatre for the Performing Arts in Reed Hall from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., Monday-Friday, Sept. 23 through Oct. 12, 2009. The exhibit is free and open to the public.
Jaroslav Malina is a Czech sceneographer and artist named one of the worlds top theatre designers by critic Tony Davis in his book Stage Design. The exhibit gives patrons the opportunity to discover their own connections between Malinas paintings and his designs for the theatre.
Malinas paintings and his designs are inextricably linked, but the connection is sometimes more difficult to fathom than other Czech and Russian artists and scene designers, said curator Dr. Joe Brandesky, Professor of Theatre at Ohio State Lima. This is due, in part, to Malinas desire to keep his painting, his free work, separate from his designs for the theatre. One is a reflection of his individual world view, the other is the result of collaborations with directors and actors for public consumption by audiences.
In addition to his work in Europe, Malina is well known to students and faculty of Ohio State studying at both the Columbus and Lima campuses. He has been a guest lecturer and designer for the theatre department and has hosted events for students on study tours to Prague. Most recently he was the designer for Ohio State Limas production of The Cherry Orchard, which commemorated the grand opening of the Martha W. Farmer Theatre for the Performing Arts in 2004.
The exhibits next stop will be the Urban Arts Center in Columbus from Nov. 17, 2009-Jan. 15, 2010.
A catalog is available for $15 and includes a CD with all the exhibit materials and a DVD with an interview with the artist. The exhibit can be opened for groups by appointment. Call the Box Office at (419) 995-8382.

Editors Note: Photos of the exhibit pieces and Jaroslav Malina are available upon request.

Remember FILEminimizer Pictures? You know, the software that allows users to compress pictures/images? (If you don't remember, read my full review on it.) Back when I reviewed FILEminimizer Pictures, I stated it is an excellent program but the price-point of $34.95 is a bit steep. Maybe Balesio heard my cry and answered my call; or maybe they decided providing a freeware is a good way to market their shareware FILEminimizer Office ($49.95) and FILEminimizer Suite ($79.95) programs. Whatever the case may be, FILEminimizer Pictures is now available as a free program (for non-commercial use). The great part is no registration or anything is required – simply download the program, install it, and start using it. Read to minimize your pictures? You can grab FILEminimizer Pictures from the links below:
Version reviewed: v3.0
Supported OS: Windows All

Freeware limitation: Free to non-commercial use only

@smaragdus: It could be very useful if you want to put the pictures on the internet or send them to someone. Imagine how many pictures you would be able to send in an email with this. Instead of ten it would be a lot more.
I have just tested it- it works, actually ripping off all meta-data. Although I can't imagine any use of such kind of software (and of any photo resizer program as well), except of removing EXIf (but there are specialized tools for this purpose), when nowadays modern hard drives are rarely lesser than a TB. So why should one be stingy for a MB or 2?
Tried this when it was on GOTD but lost it when had to reinstall XP. Great to hear I can get it again this way as tried other similar software but none kept the picture quality so well, especially things like blue sky. Liked the features it has to for selecting where and how to deal with the created resized image.
I'd recommend this one to anyone. -
@Brent: On top of this page, next to Forums you will find "Donate". Here you can decide on the amount to donate using a credit card or Paypal.
@Urban: I second that Urban. A lot of effort goes into this sight.
Whats thew easiest way of doing this?
Thanks a lot Ashraf, I will keep it for future use. You guys (dotTech) rock!

US - Census Index (1830)
About the Data
This data set is an index to individuals enumerated in the 1830 United States Federal Census, the Fifth Census of the United States.
Enumerators of the 1830 census were asked to include the following categories in the census: name of head of household; number of free white males and females in age categories: 0 to 5, 5 to 10, 10 to 15, 15 to 20, 20 to 30, 30 to 40, 40 to 50, 50 to 60, 60 to 70, 70 to 80, 80 to 90, 90 to 100, over 100; the name of a slave owner and the number of slaves owned by that person; the number of male and female slaves and free "colored" persons by age categories; the number of foreigners (not naturalized) in a household; the number of deaf, dumb, and blind persons within a household; and town or district, and county of residence. The categories allowed Congress to determine persons residing in the United States for collection of taxes and the appropriation of seats in the House of Representatives. Few, if any, records reveal as many details about individuals and families as do the U.S. federal censuses. The population schedules are successive "snapshots" of Americans that depict where and how they were living at particular periods in the past. Because of this, the census is often the best starting point for genealogical research after home sources have been exhausted. Information contained in this index includes: name of individual; location, county, and state where the individual lived at the time of the census; and year in which the record was created. Field Example Name In some records you will find question marks in the place of the given name or surname. This indicates that the name was not listed on the original record. You may also find question marks in place of missing letters. A question mark after a name indicates that the name spelling was unclear. You may also occasionally find the same record listed in the index under two different name spellings. Please note that not all unusual and uncertain names were noted by question marks, so always be sure to check under various spellings if you are having trouble locating a name. Location The town or city, and/or district where the individual resided at the time of the census. County The county in which the individual resided at the time of the census. State The state in which the individual resided at the time of the census. Year The year of the census. More About the Data The United States was the first country to call for a regularly held census. The Constitution required that a census of all "Persons...excluding Indians not taxed" be performed to determine the collection of taxes and the appropriation of seats in the House of Representatives. The first nine censuses from 1790-1870 were organized under the United States Federal Court system. Each district was assigned a U.S. marshal who hired other marshals to administer the census. Governors were responsible for enumeration in territories. The official enumeration day of the 1830 census was 1 June 1830. All questions asked were supposed to refer to that date. The count was due within six months, but the due date was extended by law to allow completion within twelve months. By 1830, there were a total of twenty-four states in the Union, Missouri being the latest addition. The new territory of Florida also had its first census in 1830. The only census losses for 1830 include some countywide losses in Massachusetts, Maryland, and Mississippi. Some of the above information is taken from: Chapter 5: Research in Census Records, The Source: A Guidebook of American Genealogy by Loretto Dennis Szucs; edited by Loretto Dennis Szucs and Sandra Hargreaves Luebking (Salt Lake City, UT: Ancestry Incorporated, 1997). William Dollarhide, The Census Book: A Genealogist's Guide to Federal Census Facts, Schedules and Indexes, Heritage Quest: Bountiful, UT, 2000.

Celebrity Cookware Video
The Good Housekeeping Research Institute tests celebrity-brand cookware
Wait until you see Mr. President in--

Want to master recipes like Rachael Ray or be a bamtastic chef like Emeril?

Chefs have become celebrities these days. People watch them cooking on TV and wanna be able to get the same results at home. Now, there's a lot of products on the market with the chef's names on them. We tested them to see if using them can make you a master in the kitchen.

Rachael Ray's pasta pot created quite a stir in Good Housekeeping's test.

The fact that it's oval means when you're cooking spaghetti you can put the noodles in easily.

Emeril Lagasse's 5-in-1 smoker was pretty hot too.

What we liked about the Emeril 5-in-1 cast iron smoker was it performed 5 different functions in a single piece. You can use the base here on your stovetop as a deep fat fryer.

You can use it indoors to smoke, roast, grill, or broil. And Good Housekeeping says you may want to serve up Nigella Lawson's Living Kitchen Oven to Tableware.

We found these dishes performed really well. You can put them in the oven, bake right in them, and then bring them to the table where they look beautiful. And when it's time to clean up, it's also very easy because everything releases from the sides.

But Good Housekeeping wasn't bought over by Rachael Ray's hipster bowls or Nigella's mixing bowls.

If you're not careful, you can wind up with batter on your blouse.

I'm Elizabeth McGuire for Good Housekeeping Reports.

Native American Medicine
Wuan Geronimo Flores
Wuan Geronimo Flores who can be called a true Holy Person, claims to have inherited the gift of his great grandfather, Geronimo: the ability to heal through the movement of energy. Flores has the capacity to speed up his own energy, and to transfer this quickened force into a patient, thereby, helping a person to become spiritually centered, so that their ailments can disappear.
Flores does not need to know the nature of a person's illness, because symptoms are physical manifestations, and Flores works on a more subtle level. He will look beyond appearances to get to the root of a problem. He says of his work: "The healing, which incorporates Native American and universal [principles], takes place in a sacred space. This is the part of an individual's home that is special to them, a place they gravitate to, where they feel the most secure and comfortable. We go to that place and the person lies down. Ever since I was a child, one of my talents has been getting people to relax deeply by putting them in a trance-like state. Then there is the actual moving of energy, the speeded up energy from my body going into theirs. All the while I am concentrating on the individual, and that can be achieved through different ways: through chants, prayers, or just through central focusing.
"This is very visual for me. I start seeing a picture of the person. As I concentrate, the image of the person gets transposed, until there are nothing but stars floating in space. I see the exact same body, only now it is made of nothing but stars. I see metallic dots of blue, silver, purple and black filling up the space and raining down on the person. The colors are calming and cooling, almost as if they are utilizing a certain frequency for the person's relaxation. Once a person has calmed down--they may even fall asleep--the energies that they were holding on to are easily released.
"I will see different things, depending on the person. One man had AIDS, although I didn't ask him what he had or how he got it. But on an energy level, he looked like a meteorite, an astroid, a cavern. He was submerged in a swamp, with tiny pollens ticking away from the inside. That's what his body was going against.
"Once that was removed, his body naturally healed itself by reproducing cells that he needed to get rid of the disease. And sure enough, about two weeks later, his cell count went from 4 to 300.
"So, that's what I do. I work as a guide, as a Holy Person and I work on a very deep level. My aim is to release energy blockages so that a person's own energy can take over and restore balance."

My neighbors were the targets of an attempted home invasion tonight. About 9:40 tonight, someone starts pounding on my door. Thought it was someone messing with me. It was my neighbor, she was scared and crying. Saying someone was trying to break into their house, and her boyfriend was still inside. Called 911, gave them the info, locked my neighbor in my place, collected my 'friend' and went to investigate. I had my gun drawn, and was scanning back and forth. Yelled for my neighbor, to make sure he was ok. Yelled several times, with no answer. I was mentally preparing myself to go in to check on him, when he finally popped his head out. He was shaken, but said they had left. My yelling scared them off. Apparently the perps had tried to kick down the door, and when that didn't work they knocked out the window to try to unlock the door. Luckily the homeowner did some quick thinking, and ran to the door and kept it locked. The perps pointed a gun at my neighbor, and I truly believe it was my yelling that scared them off. Now, I am NOT bashing the local PD. The officers who showed up were VERY nice, and extremely courteous. BUT, for those who say the need for a gun isn't needed because the cops will protect you.....it took them an HOUR to get here. Part of the problem, they knew the perps were gone....but they also had a crazy night (officer involved shooting, FD barricaded inside a home by a thug, etc)....So, had I just holed up in my living room, waiting for the cops...who knows how this night would have ended. If I wasn't home, I fear I would have come home to a crime scene.
Any opinions on how I handled the situation?

Sawnee announces new power outage portalBy Ken Stanford Staff CUMMING - Sawnee Electric Membership Corporation (Sawnee EMC) recently announced it has completely overhauled the cooperatives online portal which provides real-time information on power outages, including outage reporting and detailed maps. The online portal can be accessed through the corporate web site at www.sawnee.com/outages and via Sawnee EMCs mobile application for smart phones and tablets.
This is a major step forward for us, but most importantly, for our members states Michael A. Goodroe, President and CEO. Nobody likes a power outage, but when one occurs, our members need prompt and accurate information about whats going on and what we are doing to get their lights back on he adds. These new tools accomplish this goal. Historically, Sawnee EMC has only provided limited outage information via its web site and mobile application. That information was narrow in scope and lacked many of the cutting edge features that allow for personal interaction by the user. This is all changes as of today. Now, whenever there is an outage event that affects them, Sawnee EMC members can visit www.sawnee.com and click on the Storm Center page to find a wealth of information about all current power outages. © Copyright 2015 AccessNorthGa.com

New store for Gail Sorronda
Gail Sorronda, designer of boldly romantic, goth-inspired fashion, launches a store in Brisbane.
Who could forget the Gail Sorronda presentation at Australian fashion week this year: comical, dark and romantic, all at the same time. Multiple lips upturned into a playful smirk, as if each model were savouring the thought of a Charlie Chaplin film.
At the launch of the Gail Sorronda's James Street flagship in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley, we were introduced to another film project, a short by Nick Waterman, entitled Passion of Lovers. The fantasy video scenes lit up the party, as friends and fans traipsed through the new concept store, home to flowing culottes and draped sleeves. Sorronda greeted guests in a pair of her Happy Goth pants and porcelain dust earrings by Italian artist Grazia Fortuna Ward.
Throughout her career, the designer has built her brand on contrasts and opposites, the interplay of masculine and feminine, light and dark.
In keeping with the theme of opposing worlds, we reminded our party host of her other life in Europe, presenting collections in Piazza del Duomo and sleeping until midday in a Parisian apartment.
How does the familiarity of home compare?
"It's the first time where I haven't been hungry to go overseas," says Sorronda. "I don't know whether it's me getting older or something, but I'm really excited about the things that are happening now. It's a really strange sense of contentment."

It's still six weeks to the midterm elections, but candidates far and wide know the early voters are a prime target. They just differ on how to approach them.
The move away from trekking to the polls on Election Day gained popularity after the contentious 2000 presidential election, producing early voting in at least 33 states.
And it continues to grow. By 2008, about 30 percent of all votes came in ahead of the election, either by mail or in person.
If the numbers are similar this year, that would be a substantial jump from the 20 percent who voted early in the midterms four years ago.
In 1992, by contrast, just 7 percent of ballots came in early.

HI there, I was just doing the marriage record for Johann Horstman who married Catherine Hassse in St. Louis, MO 1/15/1846. The marriage record states that John Corth Heinrich Horstman married Catharina Wilhelmena Hasse. This is Johann Cord Heinrich Horstmann, born 11/2/1821 in Hille, Germany. I don't see him after the 1860 census records. Perhaps we can share information. Jeanine Notify Administrator about this message?

The emails I receive at firstname.lastname@example.com tickle me...It is just as fun to get private emails as it is to get public comments! Many of you ask about little things that trigger conversations between the two of us and I enjoy that so much. The getting-to-know-you part!
I don't have too much to report on today...plans to do some thrifting this morning and then creating this afternoon before the kiddos are back home and we get settled into the weekend.
Here are some of my random thoughts this morning:
*I ran out of high heat hot glue last night. It was sad. I will buy more this morning.
*Bud sorted all my Christmas glass balls into colors for me...we had reds, golds, greens and then a grouping of 'stuff with things on them like swirls'. Not a one was broken!
*I am a bit addicted to Gold Peak unsweetened tea, found by the juices in the dairy case. $2.50 for a large bottle. I pay more than that at Caribou when I just order ONE tea to go, so am good at justifying this purchase when I am at the store.
*Went to a Scentsy party this week. Um, that Central Park Praline scent? Oh, yeah! I bought that and an adorable little night light to warm it in. Seriously had to show restraint.
*Bud will be Obi Wan Kenobi for Halloween this year, Lu will be a Vampire.
*Bud is severely allergic to peanuts. I 'take one for the team' by sorting his candy booty and removing all chocolate with peanuts. It's not easy, but one must do what one must do.
*The studio is a disaster right now. I should be down there. Maybe later.
*Have you seen the blogs with 'what I wore Wednesday'? I am on my 5th day of black turtlenecks and jeans. My winter standards. How funny would that be if I took that picture daily and posted it?
And now that I have shared a whole lotta not-much with you, I am off to take on the day! Enjoy your weekend and we'll talk again Monday!

Be game for an exhilarating adventure out in the open ocean! All guests of the LUX* Resorts & Hotels in Mauritius can now experience the thrill of the big catch, with a comprehensive big game fishing service, including return transfers from our resorts to the boat pick-up spot. Let the fun begin!
If the terms 'big game fishing' have you picturing anglers heading out into the middle of the ocean and catching monster fish, you are not far off the mark. Big game fishing is all about reelin' in some of the biggest fish in the ocean.
Why go big game fishing? Because it's fun! Catching a big game fish, especially a larger-than-normal foe, is one of the most exhilarating adventures you could have. Watching that marlin jump for the first time will get anyone's heart racing, while seeing the teeth of a mako shark up close will leave you speechless.
Big game fishing trips are also a lot of fun because you never know what exactly is lurking underneath your boat, and the anticipation of what may strike your line is almost as exciting as catching a fish. Even if you don't catch that monster you're looking for, it's still more than likely you'll catch all kinds of accidental species that are still fun to reel in.
The pursuit of getting the biggest fish you can find is not limited to personal glory or fishing tournaments. Big game fishing world records are hallowed accomplishments that will have your name forever enshrined next to a specific species - not too shabby a legacy. This is especially true for species notoriously hard to set a record for.
Mauritius is renowned for being one of the best big game fishing destinations worldwide, and LUX* Resorts & Hotels has partnered with one of the most reputable big game fishing companies in Mauritius to offer you the fishing experience of a lifetime.
JP HENRY CHARTER, our trusted partner, operates from a fishing centre located in the South-West of the island.
The south-west coast offers some of the world's best fishing action within a few miles from the coral barrier reef. With perfect conditions prevailing throughout the year, the possibilities to fight giant blue marlin, black marlin, mako sharks, tiger sharks, yellow fin tuna, dog tooth tuna and many other exciting fish are endless.
Run by two specialists, Jean Pierre Henry and his son Pascal Henry, their fishing centre offers comprehensive services, including transfers to and from the centre for those guests staying at the LUX* properties located on the other coasts of our beautiful island. Please contact us for more information about transfers and rates.

Challenge the status quo with a return to sensuality, with dreamy surreal and romantic images of flora and the sensate free-flowing poetry of curves suggesting extended forms and the coiled rhythm within…all contained in the style known as Art Nouveau. And who better to express such subtly than the French.
A ring of 18k yellow gold divulges these secrets in an insinuation of elongated shape stretching the imagination and the metal to places yet unreached. Strength and delicacy co-exist in the meticulous crafting of a pair of multi-petal flowerheads touched with natural ruby centers. Joined by a natural pearl (untested but guaranteed to be natural) combining the sea and the air with bounties from the earth in the guise of two (2) rose cut diamonds. Evocative designs pattern the surface and side of the shank with unspoken odes of melody whispered in hushed tones.
Date: Circa 1900.

Could another Colombo Family Persico be targeted by the Fed's
The rats are mounting and it looks as if more reputed Colombo Crime Family hierarchy are again under the microscope. With recently turned Colombo Family member Frank Sparaco giving the Fed's new inside information its now a matter of time before they come calling. Seems as if Frankie Blue Eye's is singing to the Fed's about a Colombo Family hit that took place in 1992.
Its reported that the Fed's may be targeting Michael Persico the son of Colombo Family boss Carmine Persico also known as "Junior Persico". As of now Michael has not been charged with any mafia crimes even though he has been long thought by the Fed's to be a part of his fathers crime family. With information put forward by Sparaco the Fed's hope to be able to finally get some charges to stick on Michael and end what they call his "charmed" life.
The hit in question took place on Jan 24, 1992 on a staten island nightclub owner named Michael Devine. Devine was then involved with Teresa Persico who was the then wife of mob prince Alphonse Persico known as "Allie Boy".Allie Boy is also the son of imprisoned Colombo boss Carmine Persico. Prosecutors have long had recorded conversations in which Allie Boy Persico had angrily discussed his wife's affair with Devine and he vowed to take some sort of action. But despite these tapes and threats prosecutors could never make a case and charge anyone with the murder.
But now with Sparaco ratting it looks as if there may be a chance to finally have the gangland hit cleared up. It is being reported that now with the cooperation of Sparaco the Fed's will be able to file its first ever charges against Michael Persico. Sparaco's testimony along with taped phone calls from Allie Boy to Michael from his jail cell could link Michael to carrying out the hit ordered by Allie Boy in response to the affair. A day before the Devine murder Allie Boy Persico was taped telling his brother that John Dileo a Colombo Family associate " has the color of his vehicle". Then a follow up call made less then an hour later to an unknown conspirator told Allie Boy that "Sparaco and Dileo were at Michael Persico's home waiting for him to return". Its thought that Sparaco can link these calls to the murder plot of Devine.
Devine was found slumped over the steering wheel of his car in the early morning hours with the car still running. Devine was shot with a .22 caliber handgun. Devine was found to have 2 gunshot wounds to his groin which is thought to be a sign that Devine was killed because he was being improperly intimate with a member of the mafia or La Cosa Nostra. It's now a wait and see as to if the Fed's do in fact have a case and come after "The Last Persico" .

Superior engine reliability could yet prove a trump card in McLarens bid to beat Red Bull and Ferrari to the 2010 drivers and constructors championships. That is according to team principal Martin Whitmarsh.
All five of the drivers in title contention have used their allotted eight engines for the season, with use of a ninth carrying a heavy, ten-place grid penalty. However, Lewis Hamiltons and Jensons Buttons available V8s have completed relatively low mileage.
Mercedes-Benz have done a great job, said Whitmarsh during a Vodafone McLaren Mercedes Phone-In ahead of this weekends Brazilian Grand Prix. We will not expect engines to run more than two race distances in races until the end of the season.
That means in Brazil and Abu Dhabi, more practice running - and potentially more power - will be available to Hamilton and Button than to rivals restricted by a shortage of relatively fresh engines. While Red Bulls Mark Webber is in a quite strong position after taking on a new V8 in Korea, team mate Sebastian Vettel and Ferraris Fernando Alonso will have to be more cautious.
Certainly some of our competitors are going to have to have more mileage on their engines and their engines classically have not been quite as reliable as the Mercedes-Benz engines, continued Whitmarsh. So I think theres a potential advantage that we have there, but that can change in one revolution of an engine.
McLaren have their work cut out to stay in the title hunt in Brazil. They lie second in the constructors standings, 27 points behind Red Bull and 25 ahead of Ferrari, while in the drivers table Hamilton is third, 21 points off Alonso, and Button is a further 21 adrift in fifth, with only an outside shot at retaining his crown.

CASTING CALL: Phillip Lim is currently in Tokyo to shoot his fall ad campaign. The designer hosted a cocktail party at his flagship store in Aoyama on Friday evening. Lim was also using the party as a platform to cast the last models for the ads, which he said will star model and actress Kiko Mizuhara and will be shot as a short film, with an ensemble cast of 20. The campaign will be used worldwide.
"I found a lot of inspiration [for fall] in café racers and nouveau café racers," Lim said, referencing the motorcycle-stylings of the collection. "And Japan has a lot of subculture, so we decided to find subculture pockets in Tokyo to use in the filming."
Lim said that shooting his campaign in a city that helped to inspire the collection, which incidentally was called Sonomama, Japanese for "as you are," is just one way in which he and his team try to find and maintain authenticity, while at the same time keeping a modern edge.
"We don't live in the past, we live in the present," he said. "But our inspiration comes from the past, so we have to find a way to make that current."

Paul Feig definitely wants to be in the Melissa McCarthy business.
The director of "Bridesmaids" and "The Heat" wants the in-demand actress to play the title role in his next film, currently titled "Susan Cooper."
Not much is known about the film, other than that McCarthy would star as a female spy in the upcoming film, according to The Wrap.
Though the movie is a comedy in the vein of "The Heat," Feig is said to be looking to create a realistic James Bond-style film with a female lead.
The megadirector has been open about his desire to create more starring roles for women in Hollywood, and he seems to be interested in recreating the success he's had with McCarthy in his last two movies.
McCarthy herself has stepped into the role of director for the upcoming film "Tammy," which she co-wrote and also stars in alongside Susan Sarandon and Allison Janney.

Darpa Backed Director's Bomb Detector, Despite Failed Tests
RedX Defense declined to speak with Danger Room for this story. But Darpa spokesman Eric Mazzacone notes that RedX's bomb detectors are "in use today throughout the world including the U.S., Canada, England, China, Thailand, Afghanistan, and Iraq." American bomb squads, intelligence units, and Special Forces have all purchased the machines. In November, the company announced that the U.S. Navy's Maritime Expeditionary Security Group had begun using RedX's explosive-spotters.
The relationship between Darpa and RedX formally began on Sept. 30, 2005, documents obtained by Danger Room (.pdf) through the Freedom of Information Act show. The company, founded that very year, inked a $1.3 million deal for the "Detection of Explosive Activity on Bombers and Bomb Makers," (.pdf) a deadly threat facing U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. The objective was to build a "refined prototype system" for finding the explosives and "assess [its] performance" with Darpa. Company founder and president Regina Dugan signed the contract on behalf of RedX.
RedX might have been a young firm, but it was already well-known to Darpa. Dugan had formerly led explosives-detection work as an agency program manager, and Darpa had sponsored the research that ultimately formed the core of RedX's sensor.
Two years later, RedX had its refined prototype, and it began marketing its "XPak" bomb-spotter to government groups. The sensor was a little large and clunky for the battlefield, however. (The two main peices of gear involved a lint roller-type object and a viewfinder than took up most of a backpack.) So Darpa gave RedX in 2007 a relatively small $200,000 "seedling" contract to see if they could shrink the detector and boost its reliability, especially at spotting commercial-grade explosives, like RDX and TNT.
RedX's explosive-spotter relied on a process called "fluorescence quenching." It starts with a piece of paper, embedded with with tiny amounts of fluorescent dye — the kind that will ordinarily glow under ultraviolet light, like an old Pink Floyd poster. The dye is held in micron-size capsules that stay relatively stable in the air until they're broken by pressure. ("Scratch-n-sniff" perfume ads in magazines work the same way.) RedX crushes the capsules using its lint roller thing. If there's explosive residue or some other "quencher" on the target, some of the explosive's electrons will bond with the dye, causing it to stop glowing. The Pink Floyd effect is gone.
In theory, this was — and is — a promising approach. And many military units would up purchasing the XPaks. In practice, getting the XPak's capsules to remain stable wasn't easy. Not only did the capsules have to be perfectly even, in order for the test to work, they had to function the same in all conditions. (In later testing, humidity levels above 30 percent spoiled RedX's bomb-spotter.) More importantly, however, explosives weren't the only things that turned that dye dark. All sorts of other organic materials did, too. Which meant the RedX device gave off all kinds of "false positives" — signs of nonexistent bombs.
"The false positive rate was extraordinary," says one person familiar with the results of the seedling program. "And the pathway to get rid of the false positives was not at all clear." The Darpa officials overseeing RedX's seedling decided to stop working with the company.
