Woman serves week for heroin possessionBy ERIC FRANCIS
CORRESPONDENT | September 04,2013WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A woman who admitted several packets of heroin fell out of her pocket in a store in March spent the past week in jail as part of a plea deal.
Kristina Morgan, 24, a former Springfield resident who now lives in Maine, appeared in court in White River Junction a week ago and pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of heroin possession and two felony counts of burglary and identity theft.
The felony charges involved a daytime break-in at her stepfathers home in March. Police said a neighbor saw Morgan open a porch window, climb inside and leave with a jar containing $300 in change.
Those charges were resolved with a deferred sentence, which means that if Morgan continues to stay out of trouble for the next three years, no sentencing will take place.
For heroin possession, Morgan was sentenced to serve six to 12 months, with all but seven days suspended.
Police said Morgan made a purchase at Jasinskis Market on March 1 and left with a pair of male friends. After she left, a store clerk saw five blue postage-stamp-size wax paper packets on the floor.
The clerk picked up the small bags, all stamped with Grind City and a skyline logo, and put them in the back office while she called police.
The clerk saw Morgan return briefly with her male friends, police said, and they walked up every aisle of the store looking at the floors before leaving.
Springfield Police Officer Anthony Leonard said the stores video surveillance clearly showed something small and blue falling out of Morgans pocket as she took out money. Leonard said the total amount of heroin in the packets was just over a gram.MORE IN Southern VermontSPRINGFIELD Kristi Morris was re-elected chairman of the Springfield Select Board on Thursday...

The ONLY reason I would not re purchase this is because my love is NARS laguna. I bought this just because my order of laguna was on backorder! I really like this because its not shimmery and isnt orange. It's very sheer though.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Dry, Tan, Neutral
Hair: Blond, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Green
I love this bronzer! Ive tried so many diffrent bronzers but theyr either too light or too dark or to fake looking this one gives me a nice bronzy glow with little golden specks on it to give me that natural looking bronze i want i used to be an nc 20 skin color but now im nc 30 ever since i started tanning it still looks beautiful as before so i defenetly recommend it for most skin tones anyways hope this helped :)
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Curly, Fine
Eyes: Blue
Based on all the positive reviews I wanted to like this bronzer but I don't. It has way to much shimmer in it. It's not a light shimmer either. On my PPP skin (NW20), it looks like chunks of sparkles. I got this at a substantial discount so I won't return it, but I certainly would not pay $27CDN for this. Hard Candy makes an excellent one that I like and its only $9 at Walmart. I also don't find that Golden shows up on my skin even though I'm quite pale. I will continue to use this, maybe just on my checks, but not everywhere on my face. It's too bad MAC ruined what is potentially at good product. Who wants sparkles all over their face?
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Blond, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Blue
I expected a lot more out of this bronzer being that it's quite pricy and from MAC. But it was just average for me. I love the golden color! It didnt come up as orange on me, like most bronzers do. But it wasn't pleased with the pigmentation. After only a week of using this bronzer, I hit pan! It just never really showed up on my skin unless i used a ton of it. So it was kind of a waste. Overall, it's just average. I wouldn't buy this again. I would reccomend it to someone with very fair skin.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Coarse
Eyes: Brown
I like this bronzer. i am very pale and it gives me just the right amount of color. I am not a fan of the shimmer, it bothers me if I am under the sun, but for work and school it works perfectly.
To me it's not a 5 star product simply because of the shimmer; without it, the bronzer would look a little more natural.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Normal, Medium, Warm
Hair: Brown, Other, Fine
Eyes: Hazel
let me just say, this is my first bronzer.
I'm a C4 and I never really thought I'd need a bronzer. While at mac, one of the consultants used it one me, and I really liked the way it worked on my skin. It's a slight difference, but adds a nice glow.
i'd buy it again, but I have a feeling this is going to last me forever.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I thought that this bronzer was only okay. But I guess I liked it, because I hit pan on it in a very short time. I bought it when it was in the To The Beach packaging, and hit pan by the end of the summer. I like the color, and I liked that the shimmer level was not too over the top. However, I felt like it made my skin look a little dirty and a little orangey all at once. On my skin, the bronzer felt powdery and thick, even with a light application. Now that I've hit pan on it, it sometimes begins to crumble when I stick my brush in. Overall, I feel like MAC could have made a better product for the price.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Tan, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This product is not bad. It went great with my skin, but the reason i took off one star was because it sometimes comes on darker in a few areas and lighter in some. i have NO acne or bumps, and i have a fine brush so i have to get my fingers and try to make it even. just a little more work, but other than this, it's a pretty good product. the price was okay and i have to think about buying this bronzer again. that's only if i cant find a better one.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
I love this bronzer! I get a really sunkissed glow with this product which I love. The shimmers aren't that noticable but you can see it a little bit when the sun hits your face. It's SO pretty! I might repruchase this but I like to try out new products too so we'll see...
Age: 25-29
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Straight, Fine
Eyes: Brown
Love this colour, but you have to apply a lot in order see colour. I took off lippies because every time I buy this product it always breaks when you start to see the pan and I am just left with crumbs.

Friday, September 20, 2013
PORTSMOUTH — Goalie Brittany Linane was on her own, alone in the cage as her opponent lined up a penalty shot late in the game.
"We needed to come alive and take control of the game, and I think we were able to do that," said Portsmouth coach Shannon Parsons. "It took a little bit. It did."
The Knights had a great chance to pull even early in the second half when Hutchins unloaded a blast from the left wing on a corner, one that Linane was able to save. |

Jak-Hammered Ohio Buck
I own a 154 acre whitetail paradise in Adams County in southern Ohio, and I manage it for trophy deer. Having been so selective as to harvest no bucks under 140", I believe it finally paid off big for me.
Read MoreAs with all WASP SST broadheads, the Jak-Hammer features a pre-aligned, Stainless Smart Tip (SST). The edges of the trocar, Smart Tip are factory- aligned with the rise of the three stainless steel blades creating a straight cutting path that opens a gapping wound channel, ensuring maximum penetration. The three surgically sharp stainless steel blades of this mechanical broadhead fold forward in flight and are retained by an O-ring. Blades deploy on impact and fold back to a cutting diameter of 1-3/4 or 1-1/4 inches.
Comes in a 3-pack.
The edges of the SST tip line up with each blade and paves the way through bone and tissue, creating pathways for the blades to follow, resulting in better penetration. Not held together by tiny screws or pins, but pressed onto the ferrule, it will never come off or out of alignment. It's one Smart tip!
Broadheads live or die by their performance. Advertising and celebrity endorsements only keep a broadhead on the shelf for so long. Eventually word gets around at the archery shop. Our line of broadheads includes models that have been around for 20-plus years, and are still getting 5-star reviews.
All our heads are designed to fly perfectly when shot from a well-tuned bow, but some of our heads feature a compact, reduced surface area to be more forgiving. Because let's face it, things happen, tuning issues arise, and you still need to hit where you are aiming.
Our O-Ring System requires the least energy for deployment while offering the most reliability. Once the O-Ring deploys, the blades are allowed to release simultaneously, unlike independent blade locking systems, which require each blade to deploy independently. Made of super tough neoprene, the O-Ring material will never weather, crack or break down, even in freezing temperatures.
The Jak-Hammer mechanical broadhead set the standard for all other expandable broadheads way back in 1996. Today, it is still one of the best-selling, most reliable and the deadliest broadhead on the market. If it didn't work, it wouldn't be around for nearly 20 years.
I own a 154 acre whitetail paradise in Adams County in southern Ohio, and I manage it for trophy deer. Having been so selective as to harvest no bucks under 140", I believe it finally paid off big for me.
Read MoreI've had the opportunity to take several deer and a turkey with this head, and it continues to impress me. I've never had a deer go more than 75 yards, and the holes are nothing short of amazing. Confidence in your broadhead is everything. I've shot through ribs, shoulder blades, and even a buck's femur (completely my fault, not the head) all resulting in short blood trails and recovered animals. These heads fly true, are tough as nails, and surgically sharp. I absolutely love these broadheads.

"Im Krazy Kwasi, and I approve this message."
Hiyori should be dead, end of discussion. Ever since Rangiku got a chunk of her torso pinched off by that fricken chimera Arlon yet survived I knew that Bleach was all about keeping their good guys alive regardless the injury.
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
It's not like Nel and Grimm could leave hueco mundo for a long time anyway. They survive by eating the spirit rich air. As devoid as the human world tends to be. They would have to start eating a lot of people to survive. Though it would be amusing to see them stuffed into gigai.
^I'm pretty sure that wouldn't apply to them.
This arc ending doesn't seem rushed to me at all this is how most endings are, this is how the last one was, one minute Aizen, Gin and Tosen are going to HM the next Ichigo is being healed and training.
Last edited by black flash; 09-29-2010 at 10:58 AM.
So, just like that Yammi's fight, which he is the big, bad and strongest espada gets skipped over. We also don't get to see a half decent background story for Aizen either. Oh yea, PEOPLE ARE STILL ALIVE AFTER LOSING HALF OF THEIR BODIES! I'm just trying to figure this one out; people like Gin, who die from being cut and an armed ripped off stay dead, but people who have been sliced clean in half... are alive.
And don't forget the Espada/Arrancar who has "died."
I see what you are saying. Unohana hinting that if Hiyori has the will to live, she will life could probably tie in to Momo too... cause that bitch is still a bitch who held Aizen dear and stull has trauma from his betrayal. I could care less at this point though.
At this point I think Kube is just going to brush of such "small details" -_- I feel your frustration though.
So what now? We still need an update on Old Man and People like Grimjaw and Nell. Whats ever happened to Kensei?? What will be the new atmosphere in SS now that their Captain Commander hit the bucket? Who will take over now? So many questions that I fear will never be answered by the author.
W/e. Midterms are around the corner, my work is starting to take a toll on me and im getting tired of a certain female friend so I have more things than bleach to be depressed about but hey.... new OP should be out soon

Whitsett Wins Sun Bowl Golf
Alabama sophomore Cory Whitsett outlasted Missouri's Jace Long in a three-hole playoff to claim the 2011 Western Refining College All-America Golf Classic title at the El Paso Country Club on Tuesday afternoon.
Whitsett, Long and San Diego State's Todd Baek entered a three-way playoff finishing seven-under-par after three rounds. Whitsett's and Long's birdies on the first playoff hole at the 18th forced a second playoff hole on the first. A pair of pars sent them back to the first for the third playoff hole where Whitsett drained a 20-foot birdie for the win.
The sophomore shot 68 for the day after opening competition with back-to-back rounds of 69 on Monday for a total of 206. He entered the final round in third while Long, who led through most of the day, began the third round in second.
Whitsett became the Crimson Tide's second golfer to win the All-American golf title in three years. Hunter Hamrick, who finished tied for ninth this year, won the event in 2009. The tournament's first ever champion in 1974, Jerry Pate, also hailed from Alabama.
It was the 12th playoff in tournament history. In all, 12 of the 27 golfers finished par or better in the tournament. The field averaged a 72.12 stroke average for the tournament.

Ashford University is a for-profit university headquartered in San Diego, California.[5] It is the largest educational holding of Bridgepoint Education.[6] The University offers associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees in more than 50 degree programs on campus and online. While a majority of the student population is enrolled in online courses,[6] the University also hosts nearly 1,000[4] students at their campus location in Clinton, Iowa.[5] Ashford is accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission.[7]
Mount St. Clare history (1893–2003)[edit]
Ashford University's campus was established in 1893 as the Mount St. Clare Academy, a boarding and day school for girls. The idea for this school formed when Father James A. Murray invited the Sisters of St. Francis to help teach in Clinton, Iowa. The new Mount St. Clare building was erected for this school in 1910 and remains in use today.
Seeing a need for higher education in Clinton County and the surrounding area, the sisters founded Mount St. Clare College in 1918.[8] This liberal arts institution was also an approved teacher education college from 1932 to 1954. In 1942, 60% of the rural teachers in Clinton County and 62% of the teachers in the city of Clinton school system had received all their training from Mount St. Clare College.
In 1950, the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools first accredited Mount St. Clare College. The college then began to expand quickly, and acquired a convent building, new library, new gymnasium, the Science Building, and Durham Residence Hall. The college eventually became coeducational in 1967.
For the 1979–1980 school year, the college received approval for its first four-year degree, a bachelor's program in business administration. During the same year, Mount St. Clare Academy merged with St. Mary's High School in Clinton, forming Mater Dei High School (now known as Prince of Peace Preparatory). With the space freed by the academy's merger, the school began to offer additional four-year programs. In 1997, the sisters moved off campus into their new mother house, The Canticle. In 1998, the Durgin Educational Center was opened, which included new athletic facilities, including Kehl arena.
History (2003–present)[edit]
In 2003, Mount St. Clare College changed its name to The Franciscan University. At the same time, the university received approval to offer its first master's degree online. In September 2004, the school modified its name to The Franciscan University of the Prairies in order to avoid confusion with similarly named schools.
After a period of financial difficulty, the University was purchased by Bridgepoint Education in March 2005.[9] After the completion of the sale, the institution's name was changed to Ashford University.[9] Sponsorship by the Sisters of St. Francis ended.
Although the university was regionally accredited by The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, it sought regional accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) in 2010.[10] In June 2012, WASC denied initial accreditation to Ashford University.[11] Following WASC's denial of accreditation for being "lacking in several areas, including low numbers of full-time faculty, high student dropout rates and questions about academic rigor," HLC demanded additional information from Ashford prior to an October site visit.[12]
In response to accreditation concerns, the school's trustees appointed Richard Pattenaude as president in October 2012. Pattenaude is a former chancellor of the University of Maine System who also served as chairman of the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education for the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, a regional accrediting body.[1] Although its initial application to the Western Association of Schools and Colleges was denied in 2010, its second application was accepted in 2013.[13]
Government controversies[edit]
2006 student complaints to Iowa Department of Education[edit]
According to U.S. Senate testimony by Arlie Willems, retired reviewer for the Iowa Department of Education, the Iowa Department of Education denied Ashford University's request in 2006 to offer an online Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) on the grounds that the program "was more a collection of discrete courses than a cohesive program, was understaffed for appropriate interaction with students and supervision of both courses and clinical experiences, including student teaching. Many faculty members lacked appropriate academic background and/or experiences for their assigned responsibilities. The most serious concern noted by the team was the lack of responsibility on the part of the program in providing quality clinical experiences, the aspect of teacher preparation considered the most important by preparation programs in Iowa."[14]
Willems also testified that Ashford entered into partnership with Rio Salado Community College whereas education courses from the Ashford BA in Social Science with a Concentration in Education could apply to Rio Salado's post-baccalaureate teacher education program. Once students have completed the online Ashford BA and the online Rio Salado teacher education program, they are eligible for an Arizona teaching license. Willem's noted that this partnership could be seen as a creative way to solve a problem in order to continue drawing students, or it could be seen as a way to circumvent the accountability system for quality in order to continue collecting tuition from students. An individual who has attained an Arizona license in this way does not automatically receive an Iowa license because Iowa and Arizona do not have a reciprocity agreement.
According to Willems, complaints from Ashford students concerning this agreement and licensure include:
1) Individuals from Iowa and many other states had completed Ashford's online Bachelor of Arts in Social Science with a Concentration in Education. These individuals had been led to believe that, upon completion of this program, they would be eligible for a license in their home state because Ashford has a state-approved teacher education program (the on-ground undergraduate program).
2) Individuals were students or graduates of the Ashford online baccalaureate program, but were not aware of the need to complete the Rio Salado program as well in order to receive an Arizona license. These individuals were not even aware of the Rio Salado partnership.
3) Ashford students were intending to complete student teaching through Rio Salado College and believed they would then automatically be eligible for an Iowa teaching license.
4) Students were completing an online degree through Ashford in early childhood believed that this degree would lead to an Iowa teaching license. It does not.[14]
2008 U.S. Department of Education audit[edit]
In May 2008, the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Inspector General (OIG) audit services division commenced a compliance audit of Ashford University covering the period March 10, 2005, through June 30, 2009. The OIG audit reached the following conclusions:
Audit focus[15] | Audit result[16] |
Compensation policies and practices relating to enrollment advisers | Rewarded recruiters based on their success in securing enrollments |
Calculation, timeliness, and disbursement accuracy of Title IV program funds | Improperly retained at least $1.1 million during the 2006–7 period |
Student authorizations to retain credit balances | Kept credit balances without the proper authorization |
Maintenance of supporting documentation for a student's leave of absence | Took too long to return money awarded to students who withdrew |
The stock of Ashford's parent company, Bridgepoint Education, fell the most in almost five months when the misuse of federal student aid was first publicly disclosed in 2009.[15] When the official results were released in 2011, Senator Tom Harkin said this audit "reveals the same troubling pattern of for-profit colleges' taking advantage of students and taxpayers." The Department of Education has not yet responded to the findings.[16]
The audit was the subject of a U.S. Senate committee hearing on March 10, 2011.[17]
2011 Iowa Attorney General investigation[edit]
According to a February 15, 2011, filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Ashford University and its parent company, Bridgepoint Education, received a letter from the Iowa Attorney General's office on February 9, 2011, requesting "documents and detailed information" from January 1, 2008, to the present to determine if Ashford's business practices possibly violated the state's Consumer Fraud Act.[18]
2011 U.S. Senate hearings[edit]
On March 10, 2011, Senator Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) chaired a hearing of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee that examined a case study of Ashford's parent company, which has experienced near-exponential profit growth in the last few years despite low graduation rates. Bridgepoint owns two universities that it purchased when both were near bankruptcy, Ashford University in Iowa and the University of the Rockies in Colorado. When it purchased Ashford University in 2005, it had fewer than 300 students but today it claims to have over 78,000 students, 99% of which are online.[4][19][20]
Senator Harkin took issue with success of the company saying that while Bridgepoint may have had record profits the students were not succeeding. According to information provided by Senator Harkin in the committee hearing, 63% of students who enrolled at Ashford University during the 2008-2009 school year withdrew before completion of their prospective program. Senator Harkin pointed out that Bridgepoint recorded more than $216 million in profits in 2010; of which 86.5 percent of its revenues come from federal funds. In reference to the dependence of Bridgepoint on public funds, Senator Harkin was quoted as saying, "I think this is a scam, an absolute scam."[19]
Kathleen Tighe, who is an inspector general with the U.S. Department of Education, testified at the hearing that in an audit of Ashford, she discovered Ashford was improperly distributing student aid to students. "Seventy-five percent of the improper disbursements to students in our sample were made to students who never became eligible," Tighe said. Bridgepoint hadn't returned the improperly obtained student aid to the federal government, and said on a recent report she'd seen that Bridgepoint was "sitting on $130 million" in these types of funds.[19]
Due to the ongoing Office of Federal Student Aid (FSA) proceedings, and in order to preserve due process, Ashford's parent company, Bridgepoint Education, chose not to send executives to the HELP committee hearing while engaged in negotiations with FSA.[21] Rather, Bridgepoint published a summary of responses called Bridgepoint Education Transparency.
Leaders of Ashford and its predecessor institutions have included:
- Mother Mary Paul Carrico, O.S.F., 1918–1921
- Mother Kristen Dunno, O.S.F., 1921–1924
- Mother Mary Paul Carrico, O.S.F., 1924-1936[22]
- Mother Mary John McKeever, O.S.F., 1936–1948
- Mother Mary Regis Cleary, O.S.F., 1948–1958
- Sister Mary Cortona Phelan, O.S.F., 1958–1968
- Sister Mary Cecile Devereux, O.S.F., 1968–1971
- Sister Eileen Smith, O.S.F., 1972–1976
- Dan C. Johnson, 1976–1985
- The Rev. Charles E. Lang, 1986–1991
- James J. Ross, 1991–2000
- Brian McNicholas, 2001–2002
- Michael E. Kaelke, 2002–2005
- James Chitwood, 2005–2007
- Jane McAuliffe, 2007–2011
- Elizabeth Tice, 2011-2012
- Richard Pattenaude, 2012–present
While a majority of students are enrolled in online courses[6] managed from the University's headquarters in San Diego, California, Ashford's traditional campus is located in Clinton, Iowa.[5] The 24-acre (9.7 ha) campus is about a half mile (800 m) from the Mississippi River and about a mile (1,600 m) north of Highway 30. The most notable building on campus is St. Clare Hall, which has served as the Mount St. Clare Convent, Novitiate, Academy, and College. Today, the lower floors in St. Clare Hall house administrative and support staff, while the upper floors contain classrooms.[citation needed]
The Durgin Educational Center, which houses Kehl Arena, the athletics department, and the animation lab. The newly renovated Ladd Science Building has chemistry, biology, microbiology, research and biochemistry labs. The university has recently purchased the Best Western hotel for use as a residence hall. This hall, commonly known as the BW, accompanies both Durham and Regis Halls in providing residence to on campus students. An article in the Huffiington Post criticized the purchase of land from a local country club and described how "a new, 500-seat football stadium adorns the campus", even though no football team exists on campus.[23]
Sports and student activities[edit]
Ashford University teams are known as the Saints. The university competes in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) as an Independent member, part of the Association of Independent Institutions (AII). The Saints formerly competed in the Midwest Collegiate Conference (MCC). Men's sports include baseball, basketball, bowling, cross country, golf, soccer, tennis and track & field; women's sports include basketball, bowling, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track & field and volleyball.
The official team colors are purple and gold, and the mascot for the Saints is a Saint Bernard dog named Champ. The university constructed a $4.6 million athletic facility in 2010. A new state-of-the-art artificial-turf soccer field and an outdoor all-weather track has been completed on the lower portion of the campus; it hosts the AU men's and women's soccer programs as well as the men's and women's outdoor track and field teams.[24] After belonging to the MCC for many years, Ashford has become a member of Association of Independent Institutions (AII) of the NAIA on July 1, 2012.[25]
Ashford has received the MCC President's Cup for 2009-10 and 2010-11 for high academic excellence among their student athletes with 96 individual students chosen for the Academic All-MCC Team.[26] Additionally, 21 students were named Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athletes which requires a GPA of 3.5 to 4.0 at certification.[27] Eight of Ashford's athletic programs have been named as NAIA Scholar Teams, which requires individuals on the team to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale. The programs named were men's tennis, women's soccer, women's basketball, men's soccer, volleyball, baseball and men's basketball.[28]
The mascot of the Ashford University Saints is "Champ", a Saint Bernard dog wearing a purple Ashford University t-shirt. The mascot was created in May 2006 by Sarah Bogue, who worked as an employee for Facemakers Inc.[29]
As for-profit colleges have come under increasing scrutiny, a U.S. Senate report in 2011 listed Ashford's parent company, Bridgepoint, as having one of the highest withdrawal rates of any publicly traded school in the industry.[30] Ashford has also been audited for its recruiting and finance practices in a U.S. Department of Education audit. Bridgepoint Education responded in March 2011 with a report asserting that the information used in the Senate hearing was either inaccurate or incomplete.[31]
On December 3, 2014 a suit was filed in Arizona federal court charging that Bridgepoint Education is violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act by robocalling sales prospects. Similar suits were filed in October in federal court in San Diego and the Northern District of Ohio.[32]

Bio and Links
I've been researching my family genealogy for a quite a few years now and it's become one of my passions.
I've found cemeteries to be such a valuable resource for genealogical information and have lengthened the branches of my family tree - thanks to physically visiting cemeteries and by 'virtually' visiting cemeteries on this site.
I hope that by recording graves in the cemeteries that I visit will help others. Feel free to use my headstone photos for your research and give credit (my name or a link to the memorial page).
I worked very hard to add these graves and photos to this site. I am more than happy to add any additional information to any memorial. If you are requesting a transfer, please make sure that it is within guidelines (they are a direct relative within four generations). Also, please make the transfer request through the "edit" tab on the memorial page.
**** Obituaries **** Please note that according to the Guidelines, it is against policy to copy and paste obituaries word for word onto memorial pages. Any works published before 1923 are under copyright. I will not make these edits.

Willis CRAFT Cemetery & Photos
Hey Valerie,
Great photos, awesome in fact! Very well done. The cemetery ID is now added with the coordinates. I didn't realize I needed to include the word
Cemetery when setting up a new one, so it only says
Willis Craft
. Now, I don't see how to change/edit it.
Let me know if anything else needs to be changed or if you have any suggestions about how to modify the cemetery name (if that's needed).
Thanks again. Have a great weekend!

Thank you!! I will get cracking on her bio after the weekend. I will also submit some bio material on her parents. Her father owned a piano store in Columbia, and her mother was a noted collector of antiques-there was a magazine article on her collection but I haven't been able to find it. This family was well known, highly regarded, and frequently reported on in Columbia.

My First Visit to this Site
Hello Valerie! This is my first visit to this site and I was pleased to find that you have recorded information about my grandparents, Richard P. Hopkins (66593076) and Grace Baker Hopkins (66593015), and Uncle, Forrest B. Hopkins (66593129) who are buried at Westview Cemetery in Atlanta. (I've also submitted an edit request to add Forrest B. Hopkins to the listing for my grandparents since he was their son who died just before his second birthday.) Another member has already cross-referenced my other uncle, Hiram Edwin Hopkins (100477219).
I am wondering if it would be possible for you to add my parents, Richard P. Hopkins Jr and Marguerite V. Hopkins, who are also buried in the same plot. Since I live in Baton Rouge, LA, I rarely get to visit the Atlanta area. I do not know if you are in a position to help; but if not, perhaps you can advise me as to how I might go about doing this. Thank you so much for all you are doing!(7/16/2014)

Mount Vernon hires new football coach
Justin Todd, who guided Loudonville, to a 30-6 record in three seasons, will be hired as Mount Vernon's new football coach, according to The Mount Vernon News. Loudonville went unbeaten until being ousted in the Division VI regional final by eventual state runner-up Kirtland.
An East Knox graduate, Todd will succeed Anthony Naples, who stepped down after a 5-5 season that capped an 18-22 four-year span at Mount Vernon.
Other applicants, according to the newspaper, included current coaches Jim Stoyle of Centerburg, Jim Collis of Columbus Academy, Terry Holbert of Millersport and former coaches Butler B'y'Note (Briggs), Mark Hundley (Dublin Jerome), Scott Gordon (Thomas Worthington), Mike Yonnotti (Canal Winchester) and Dave Everson (Bloom-Carroll).

Iverson commits to Wisconsin
Delaware 6-foot-5 senior guard-forward Khalil Iverson on Thursday night made an oral commitment to play college basketball for Wisconsin. Coach Jordan Blackburn said he expects Iverson to sign a letter of commitment during an official visit to Madison next week.
The commitment came with the entire Wisconsin staff on hand to watch a Delaware practice. It marked the second trip in 10 days to Delawre for Badgers coach Bo Ryan, who made a full-court press for the somewhat raw by superbly talented Iverson to join a team that already has two Ohio players in Traevon Jackson of Westerville South and Nigel Hayes of Toledo Whitmer.

Clearing the notebook
Some prominent coaches throughout the area and Ohio were said to have applied for the much coveted head football vacancy at Westerville South. The seemingly endless search ended with the hiring of little-known Kyle Stout as the overseer of a program teeming with talent.
If Stout's name doesn't ring a bell, it's because he has spent the past two seasons as offensive coordinator at Wadsworth, a perennial playoff qualifier. His only head coaching experience in 2012 yielded an 0-10 record at tradition-poor Crestline.

Anaerobic Respiration (lack of oxygen)
Goal: to reduce pyruvate, thus generating NAD+
Where: the cytoplasm
Why: in the absence of oxygen, it is the only way to generate NAD+ (to use in glycolysis) and ATP.
The cell is a much more efficient energy converter when oxygen is available. What happens in a cell in the body that lacks oxygen? The breakdown of glucose cannot proceed beyond glycolysis. Without oxygen, cellular respiration could not occur because oxygen serves as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport system. The electron transport system would therefore not be available.
Recall that glycolysis takes place in the cytosol and involves the breakdown of glucose into pyruvic acid (pyruvate), producing a low yield of 2 molecules of ATP/glucose molecule. If there is an insufficient amount of oxygen present, pyruvate will be converted by lactate dehydrogenase to lactic acid (lactate) to regenerate NAD+ so that in the absence of oxygen, at least some ATP can be made by glycolysis.
To regenerate NAD+ from NADH, the electrons from NADH are added to pyruvate to produce alcohol (in plants and yeast) or lactate/lactic acid (animals, bacteria). The total ATP yield of anaerobic respiration comes from glycolysis with only 2 ATP molecules are produced per glucose.
Usefulness of Anaerobic Respiration
During vigorous exercise, oxygen is consumed faster than it is needed. Additional ATP energy is provided to the muscles by glycolysis and the result is a buildup of lactate in the muscles.When lactate builds up, the blood pH drops and the muscles fatigue. At rest, lactate is converted back to pyruvate (the oxygen debt is repaid). This is why you continue to breathe hard after you have finished running or rapid stair climbing.
- Glycolysis of glucose to pyruvic acid is allowed to continue, despite the fact that fewer ATP (two) are synthesized. This provides cells with a backup or emergency source of ATP.
- Some peripheral tissues such as skeletal muscles commonly function anaerobically without injury or cell damage for short periods of time.
- Red blood cells (RBCs) respire anaerobically, thus conserving the hemoglobin‑bound O2 for the tissues.

Sculptor marks First World War centenary with work in Canary Wharf
A Canary Wharf gallery today marked 100 years since the start of the Great War by unveiling a miniature bronze sculpture, while its creator passed the centenary milestone back in his workshop.
Nic Joly can be found amid a sea of metal, paint and files creating 1,566 commemorative pieces to represent the number of days the war was fought, for his Never Forgotten collection now showcased at Artisan Fine Art.
He hopes to raise more than £150,000 in partnership with the Royal British Legion by donating to charity £100 from the £695 price tag for each item.
The 41-year-old admitted the work had often seen him reduced to an "emotional wreck".
That's because every individually-dated piece, which take 24 hours to complete, incorporate a back story, something which has brought identity to his creations - and a tear to his eye.
"It makes every piece as unique as everyone who died," said Nic, who often uses a workshop in Hatton Gardens.
"The whole process is about the little people who make up the big picture, they are all as important as everyone else.
"Putting experiences from a letter or something that happened on that day, like a letter from a father to son, puts you back in touch with the whole thing."
Never Forgotten uses a striking scarlet poppy and embraces the iconic Joe Rosenthal picture of US soldiers raising the flag on the island of Iwo Jima in the Second World War.
Nic said it was a chat with a 96-year-old veteran who flew a glider into the Arnhem conflict during the Second World War that "brought past history to life".
"It was an extraordinary story in itself but the whole thing that fascinated me was he had spoken to his father about the First World War and everything came into colour," he added.
"That was really the moment that changed things for me - with his father's experiences.
"That generation didn't really talk about much but the few words he had said about it were incredible.
"About the number of friends his father lost and the village his father came from where he said a whole generation was wiped out overnight.
"This is the centenary but it's still going on now, this is from then to the present day. It's the past, the present and never forgetting."

This book is also a compendium for women wishing to use Jade Egg internal weights (dragon pearls, ben wa balls, duo balls and the like, all of which are recommended by pelvic floor physiotherapists worldwide) however a woman can achieve formidable strength and tone by performing the exercises without weights. It was with this in mind that I structured this manuscript with the exercises at the front so that they can be mastered first in order to use the Jade Eggs or other weights internally after they have been understood. The exercises are easy and a pleasure to perform. I am continuously dismayed that certain Asian women forced to whore for a living can lift up to 20 kilos of weight with their vaginal muscles alone and we western women, in control of our lives are wetting ourselves and have our organs falling out of our body, that is why I have bravely and passionately written this book, to alleviate the unnecessary and silent suffering of so many women of their embarrassing unspoken disorders. I have undertaken this work with the purest and highest of intentions and what I present to you is vulgar free and untainted, enjoy!

Thailand reach Suzuki Cup final
- Published: 13/12/2012 at 09:45 PM
- Online news:
Thailand moved a step closer to ending a 10-year Asean title drought when they reached the AFF Suzuki Cup final by beating defending champion Malaysia 2-0 for a 3-1 aggregate win on Thursday night.
After a 1-1 draw in Malaysia in the first leg of their semi-final Thailand advanced to the final thanks to goals from in-form striker Teerasil Dangda in the 60th minute and defender Teerathorn Bunmathan five minutes later in the return leg at a packed Supachalasai stadium.

The Thais will meet Singapore in a two-leg final for the biggest prize in Southeast Asian football. The first leg will be in the city state on Wednesday, and the second leg in Bangkok next Saturday.
It will be Thailand's sixth appearance in the Asean championship final. Both Thailand and Singapore have won the title three times, and next week's champion will be the first to win the fourth biennial championship since it was launched in 1996.
Thailand claimed its record third crown in 2002 and the Lions have since matched the War Elephants' achievement.
At Supachalasai, Malaysia, who had score to stand a realistic chance of progressing, got off to a lively start, as captain Safiq Rahim forced Thailand goalkeeper Kawin Thammasatchanan to make a save in the opening minute.
But Thailand, whose coach Winfried Schaefer was banned from the bench after being sent off in Kuala Lumpur, soon found their rhythm and looked more dangerous.
Datsakorn Thonglao's pass sent Teerasil clear after 30 minutes but the striker's shot went wide.
Malaysia were reduced to 10 men two minutes before the half, when Mahamad Fadhli received a second yellow card following a clash with Datsakorn who was also booked.
Thailand went ahead after one hour when Teerasil intercepted a poor clearance by Amar Rohidan to score past Malaysia goalkeeper Farizal Marlias.
It was Teerasil's fifth goal of the 2012 Suzuki Cup. He also scored the equaliser against the Tigers in the first leg.
Five minutes later, Teerathorn put the match out of Malaysia's reach.
"We are very happy to reach the final," said coach Schaefer, who watched his men from the stands.
"We played very well with determination. But we lost concentration in the final moments. We should have scored three or five goals."
As for finalist Singapore, "They are a good team and have good spirit. All their 22 players are good."

As Thailand will have to play on artificial grass in the first leg, Schaefer said he would ask Thai Premier League club Bangkok Glass to allow his players to train on their artificial turf.
He was confident that Thailand would regain the crown.
"We have not won the title for 10 years and it's time for us to win back the title," he said.
Malaysia coach K Rajagobal said: "In the first half, we did well. But when our player was sent off and we condeded the first goal, it was very difficult for us to make a comeback."
He also criticised South Korean referee Lee Min-hu for being too lenient with Thailand.
"If we had had the same number of players, the match would have been more exciting," he said.

The Golden State's capitol is surprisingly thin on local regulation and licensing requirements. Sacramento largely defers to the rules of the resident state government. However, the County of Sacramento has a number of clear and strict policies regarding public health and the environment. Additionally, both local governments make paperwork clear, straightforward and easy. In a city literally filled with bureaucracy, residents can enjoy some streamlined government. Besides providing government to California, Sacramento is home to the agriculture and aerospace industries and houses several significant companies: Sutter Health, Blue Diamond Growers, Aerojet, Teichert, and The McClatchy Company.

Improved AWG Fourier optics model
Optics Express, Vol. 12, Issue 20, pp. 4804-4821 (2004)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (374 KB)
In this paper we present an improved Fourier Optics model to calculate the transmission characteristics between any arbitrary pair of input/output ports (IOPs) of an Arrayed Waveguide Grating (AWG). In this model the input and output sections of the AWG are modeled using the same approximations, thus removing some reciprocity-related inconsistencies present in previously existing models. The expressions which summarize the model are compact and easily interpretable. Simple quasi-analytical expressions are also derived under the Gaussian approximation of the mode field profiles.

What goes around comes around
From producing a video for UNICEF for their End Violence campaign, a UNDP video for UN day to a TV commercial for Star Times, several very interesting reports for Euro News and much more we have enjoyed a very busy period.
Since we very much believe in a balance of giving and receiving we are now proudly supporting AMCHAM Tanzania with their recently announced Anti Poaching campaign.
In addition we supported the young Dutch film maker Sally Fenaux-Barleycorn to produce a video for entry for the short film category of the Sundance Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Challenge. Sadly she didn't win but having seen the result, we are proud to have been part of this project.
We also decided to support one very worthy NGO with a video to raise awareness. Free of charge of course. We are not in a position to announce the name of the NGO just yet but watch this space.
Tanzania is full of talent! In order to make sure this talent is not wasted we are now working very closely with Dar es Salaam University, School of Journalism and Mass Communications. The University has put their trust in us and sends us their students for training and internships. However, not all talent can afford to go to University hence we have a particular soft spot for talent that hasn't had the chance of further education.

Last weekend, the staff of the Environmental Centre at CU Boulder went on a retreat in the mountains of Nederland. The CU Mountain Research Station (MRS) played host to our retreat.
Inclusivity is a big deal in Boulder. Generally, the city is not very diverse but diversity is thoroughly encouraged and CU's diversity is thriving daily. Boulder is a rather liberal city and so the level of tolerance of difference is impressive. So, with a school like CU set in a city like Boulder, inclusivity was the theme of our retreat this year. Particularly, we were focusing on inclusivity within leadership and the scope our the work that we do.
This experience was amazing. I hadn't had a retreat like this one prior. Usually, retreats are formal and there's a lot of note taking; sort of like a classroom setting. But, this one was different.
When we think of inclusivity, we typically think of color, religion and ethnic origin. There's more to that including class, socio-economic status, environmental (in)justice and self.
The entire day was filled with interactive activities and so much was learned in such a casual (but thorough) environment. And it helped that the scenery was pure and Fall is setting in. Trees were green and yellow and red at the same time. Bliss.
The MRS is open to all sorts of groups for retreats. Feel free to consider this location for your group's getaway. The hiking and biking trails are plenty and provide a beautiful view of the surrounding scenes. And there's a modern lodge for over night stays.
There was a lot of delicious food, provided by the Environmental Center.
Also, taking breaks by the streams and sheds were great for reflection and relaxation.
With reference to my last post, the Environmental Center is providing me with hands-on work experience as well as a beautiful social one.
Have a great week and let's look forward to more weekends like the one just past.
'Funmi Oy.

The comparative effectiveness review (CER) topic, Comparative Effectiveness of Nonoperative and Operative Treatments for Rotator Cuff Tears, was nominated in a public process. The nominated topic was reviewed and selected based on need, importance, and feasibility. Sufficient research into the current literature by experts in the field and stakeholders determined that a CER on the operative and nonoperative treatments and postoperative rehabilitation of rotator cuff tears was needed and would not duplicate existing work. Based on this research, key clinical questions that the report would address were developed and made available for public comment. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) then commissioned the University of Alberta Evidence-Based Practice Center to prepare the CER with input from a Technical Expert Panel. This advisory panel was comprised of experts in different specialties, including sports medicine, preventative medicine, physical therapy, internal medicine, and orthopedic surgery. The panel identified important issues, reviewed proposed methods, defined parameters for the review of evidence, and helped develop the draft report.

We had been searching for just the right porch lights for our front porch and the garage. Some were too big, some were too small but these were ju-u-u-s-t right! There are good quality and the price was fair. They look lovely on our mountain home and gave us just the lighting effects we were looking for.

As we learned already, you can add new fields to a table. Since such new fields are not added to the corresponding forms or reports, you have to insert these fields in the appropriate objects. Even though the Form Wizard or the Report Wizard can be used to create quick objects, you still have the option of changing or improving their look by moving fields around and changing the sequence of fields' navigation.Rating Detail

Inside the newly introduced Colorado telecom reform bill
Posted By Andy Vuong On March 8, 2012 @ 3:21 pm In Technology,Telecommunications | 6 Comments
UPDATE 6:02 P.M. | Statement from CenturyLink added to the bottom of the post.
Colorado lawmakers finally introduced today the telecom reform bill they've been working on for several months.
Among other things, Senate Bill 157 [1] proposes to transfer some funds from the Colorado High Cost Support Mechanism toward rural broadband expansion.
It would phase out the high-cost fund by January 2025. The antiquated program is under attack because it continues to reimburse [2] more than $50 million annually to carriers for providing land-line phone service in areas that are believed to be hard to serve, even as wireless and Internet-based phone services are now widely available. In fact, one wireless carrier drew from the fund last year.
The bill calls for a one-time transfer of $5 million from the high-cost fund in March 2013 to establish the Broadband Capital Investment Fund, which would help finance the build-out of high-speed Internet service in areas deemed to be unserved.
The high-cost fund is supported by a surcharge on cellphone and land-line bills. The bill proposes to freeze the surcharge and transfer an undetermined amount from the high-cost program to the broadband fund annually until both programs are phased out in 2025.
SB 157 also proposes to remove price caps on basic phone service in competitive markets.
"Our industry cannot continue to support both consumer and business needs while operating under antiquated laws created before the boon of high speed data, mobile broadband technology and the increasing demand for advanced networks," said AT&T state president Bill Soards. "We must modernize our laws, reduce provider subsidies and streamline regulations to support Colorado's broadband future."
The bill is co-sponsored by Sen. Mark Scheffel, R-Parker; Sen. Lois Tochtrop, D-Thorton; Rep. Angela Williams, D-Denver; and Rep. Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock.
Lawmakers proposed and withdrew a similar measure last year.
Federal regulators are also shifting the Universal Service Fund [3], the federal version of the state high-cost program, toward broadband expansion.
CenturyLink, which receives the vast majority of high-cost funds, issued this statement:
"The real effect of this bill will be hundreds of jobs lost in Colorado in addition to over 400,000 rural customers who will no longer have access to affordable phone service. This bill sends tens of millions of dollars to out-of-state long distance companies and over the next decade gives well over one hundred million dollars to the State of Colorado to create a new bureaucracy with no oversight."
