Project Description
The existing North Shore force main serves more than 350,000 people by transporting combined wastewater – sanitary sewage and stormwater – from the northeast part of San Francisco to the Southeast Wastwater Treatment Plant for treatment. The existing force main is near the end of its useful life and in need of repair. The completion of this new sewer project will enable the rehabilitation of the existing sewer line and ensure continued service to residents and businesses of San Francisco.
North Shore circa 1869 to Present Day
Comparing the Embarcadero wharf from centuries ago with today's built up environment, helps us understand the difficulties the design engineers and contractor constantly struggle with as they encounter unmarked piers, buried brick sewers and other remains from the 1800s.

Review: Math Fractions: Introduction teaches math on a messy interface
Give your child a basic introduction to fractions in this fun game world.
The developers behind Math Fractions: Introduction manage to take the same winning formula they've used in other math-based games and apply it effectively to the development and execution of a game world and quiz structure that is fun and educational for all levels of learners.
When your child first starts using Math Fractions: Introduction, they are prompted to create a character, name that character, and give them clothing. They are then dropped into a typical child's room that they can explore by tapping around. While the resulting interface is a bit messy and hard to navigate, the effect is more engaging than the clean interface of many other math tutoring apps. The real stars of the Math Fractions show, though, are the games. The games are designed to emulate different types of popular video games, while teaching important fraction concepts and engaging children in a way that normal homework cannot. It's not exactly exciting, but the rush for high scores and the thrill of learning will drive many learners to keep playing.
The free version of Math Fractions: Introduction is fairly limited, but it offers enough engaging content to be an exciting alternative to traditional study tools. It's easy to use, fun to play, and the rewards for learning are substantial. If you are looking for a good educational math tool for your iPad, this is a good place to start.

Infectious Disease Epidemiology Program
Airborne and Direct Contact Diseases - Haemophilus influenzae disease
General Information:
Haemophilus Influenza disease (sometimes called H. flu), is caused by the Haemophilus influenzae bacteria. The bacteria are spread from person to person through droplets in the air when a person who has the disease coughs or sneezes. A person can have the bacteria in their nose and throat and never get sick, but they can pass the germs on to someone else. Haemophilus influenzae can cause many different kinds of illness like meningitis (inflammation of the coverings of the spinal cord and brain) and infections in the blood, lungs or joints.
Due to widespread use of the Hib (Haemophilus Influenzae serotype B) vaccine in children, very few cases are reported each year. Please see the vaccine information statement (VIS) below for more information.

In Illinois, alcohol Wholesalers offer alcohol products to retailers. This can include pourable beverages such as kegs to resale items such as six packs.

Kevin Spacey Fowler, CBE (born July 26, 1959), widely known as Kevin Spacey, is an American actor, film director, writer, producer, and comedian. He began his career as a stage actor during the 1980s, before being cast in supporting roles in film and television. He gained critical acclaim in the early 1990s, culminating in his first Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for The Usual Suspects (1995), followed by an Academy Award for Best Actor for American Beauty (1999).
During a career which has earned Spacey several Emmy and Golden Globe nominations, his other starring roles include Seven (1995), L.A. Confidential (1997), Pay It Forward (2000), K-PAX (2001), and Superman Returns (2006). He was the artistic director of the Old Vic theatre in London from 2004 to 2014. He currently stars as Frank Underwood in the Netflix series House of Cards.
Spacey was born in South Orange, New Jersey, the son of Kathleen Ann (née Knutson; December 5, 1931 – March 19, 2003), a secretary, and Thomas Geoffrey Fowler (June 4, 1924 – December 24, 1992), a technical writer and data consultant.[1][2][3] He has two older siblings: a sister, Julie, and a brother, Randy. He has Swedish (from his maternal grandfather), English, and Welsh ancestry.[4] Spacey attended Northridge Military Academy, Canoga Park High School (in tenth and eleventh grades), and then Chatsworth High School in Chatsworth, Los Angeles, where he graduated valedictorian of his class.[5][6]
At Chatsworth, Spacey starred in the school's senior production of The Sound of Music, playing the part of Captain Georg von Trapp with Mare Winningham as Maria von Trapp. He took "Spacey" (his middle name and his paternal grandmother's maiden name) as his stage name.[3][7] Several reports have incorrectly suggested that he took his name in tribute to actor Spencer Tracy, combining Tracy's first and last names.[7] He had tried to succeed as a comedian for several years, before attending the Juilliard School in New York City, where he studied drama,[8] between 1979 and 1981. During this time period, Spacey performed stand-up comedy in bowling alley talent contests.[9]
Spacey's first professional stage appearance was as a spear carrier in a New York Shakespeare Festival performance of Henry VI, part 1 in 1981. The following year, he made his first Broadway appearance, as Oswald in a production of Henrik Ibsen's Ghosts, starring Liv Ullmann. Then he portrayed Philinte in Molière's The Misanthrope. In 1984, he appeared in a production of David Rabe's Hurlyburly, in which he rotated through each of the male parts (he would later play Mickey in the film version). Next came Anton Chekhov's The Seagull. In 1986, he appeared in a production of Sleuth in a New Jersey dinner theatre.[citation needed]
His prominence as a stage actor began in 1986, when he was cast opposite Jack Lemmon, Peter Gallagher and Bethel Leslie as Jamie, the eldest Tyrone son in Jonathan Miller's lauded production of Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey into Night. Lemmon in particular would become a mentor to Spacey.[10] He made his first major television appearance in the second season premiere of Crime Story, playing a Kennedy-esque American senator. Although his interest soon turned to film, Spacey remained actively involved in the live theater community. In 1991, he won a Tony Award for his portrayal of Uncle Louie in Neil Simon's Broadway hit Lost in Yonkers. Spacey's father was unconvinced that Spacey could make a career for himself as an actor, and did not change his mind until Spacey became well-known.[9]
Some of Spacey's early roles include a widowed eccentric millionaire on L.A. Law, the television miniseries The Murder of Mary Phagan (1988), opposite Lemmon, and the comedy See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989). He earned a fan base after playing the criminally insane arms dealer Mel Profitt on the television series Wiseguy. He quickly developed a reputation as a character actor, and was cast in bigger roles, including one-half of a bickering Connecticut couple in the dark comedy film The Ref (1994), a malicious Hollywood studio boss in the satire Swimming with Sharks, and the malevolent office manager in the ensemble film Glengarry Glen Ross (1992), gaining him positive notices by critics. His performance as the enigmatic criminal Verbal Kint in The Usual Suspects won him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.[8]
Spacey appeared in the 1995 thriller film Seven, making a sudden entrance late in the film as the serial killer John Doe after going unmentioned in the film's advertisements and opening credits. His work in Seven, The Usual Suspects, and Outbreak earned him Best Supporting Actor honors at the 1995 Society of Texas Film Critics Awards.[11][12] He remarked in 2013: "I think people just like me evil for some reason. They want me to be a son of a bitch."[13]
Spacey played an egomaniacal district attorney in A Time to Kill (1996), and founded Trigger Street Productions in 1997, with the purpose of producing and developing entertainment across various media. He made his directorial debut with the film Albino Alligator (1996). The film was a failure at the box office, grossing $339,379 with a budget of $6 million, but critics praised Spacey's direction. He also did voice work in Pixar's A Bug's Life (1998) voicing Hopper, the leader of a vicious gang of grasshoppers.[citation needed]
Spacey won universal praise and a Best Actor Oscar for his role as a depressed suburban father who re-evaluates his life in 1999's American Beauty;[8] the same year, he was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Spacey won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor and earned another Tony nomination in 1999 for The Iceman Cometh. In 2001, Spacey co-hosted, with Judi Dench, the Unite for the Future Gala, a UK fundraiser for the British Victims of 9/11 and Médecins Sans Frontières at London's Old Vic Theatre, produced by Harvey Goldsmith and Dominic Madden.[citation needed]
He played a physically and emotionally scarred grade school teacher in Pay It Forward (2000), a patient in a mental institution who may or may not be an alien in K-Pax (2001), and singer Bobby Darin in Beyond the Sea (2004). The latter was a lifelong dream project for Spacey, who took on co-writing, directing, co-producing, and starring duties in the biography/musical about Darin's life, career, and relationship with actress Sandra Dee. Facing little interest for backing in the United States, Spacey went to the United Kingdom and Germany for funding. Almost all of the film was made in Berlin.[10] Spacey provided his own vocals on the Beyond the Sea soundtrack and appeared in several tribute concerts around the time of the film's release. He received mostly positive reviews for his singing, as well as a Golden Globe nomination for his performance. However, reviewers criticized the age disparity between Spacey and Darin, noting that Spacey was too old to convincingly portray Darin, particularly during the early stages of the singer's life depicted in the film.[citation needed]
Spacey hosted Saturday Night Live twice: first in 1997 with musical guest Beck and special guests Michael Palin and John Cleese from Monty Python's Flying Circus, and again in May 2006 with musical guest Nelly Furtado. In 2006, Spacey played Lex Luthor in the Bryan Singer superhero film Superman Returns. He was to return for its 2009 sequel, but the series was instead rebooted with 2013 film Man of Steel. Jesse Eisenberg has since replaced Spacey as Luthor for Man of Steel's 2015 sequel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.[citation needed]
Spacey also appeared in Edison, which received a direct-to-video release in 2006. In 2008, he played an MIT lecturer in the film 21. The film is based on Ben Mezrich's best seller Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six MIT Students Who Took Vegas for Millions, a story of student MIT card-counters who used mathematical probability to aid them in card games such as blackjack. In early 2010, Spacey went to China to star in writer-director Dayyan Eng's black comedy film Inseparable, becoming the first Hollywood actor to star in a fully Chinese-funded film.[citation needed]
Spacey is well known in Hollywood for his impressions. When he appeared on Inside the Actors Studio, he imitated (at host James Lipton's request) James Stewart, Johnny Carson, Katharine Hepburn, Clint Eastwood, John Gielgud, Marlon Brando, Christopher Walken, Al Pacino, and Jack Lemmon.[14] As a young actor in New York City, he used his skill to pretend to be Carson's son to obtain free theater tickets and enter Studio 54.[15]
Capitol/EMI's album Forever Cool (2007) features two duets with Spacey and the voice of the late Dean Martin: "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" and "King of the Road". Spacey is a patron of the Shakespeare Schools Festival, a charity that enables school children across the UK to perform Shakespeare in professional theatres.[16] He also sits on the Board of Directors of the Motion Picture and Television Fund.[17]
On March 18, 2011, it was announced that Spacey was cast as Frank Underwood in the Netflix series House of Cards.[18] He was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series at the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards in 2013.[citation needed]
In February 2003, Spacey announced that he was returning to London to become the artistic director of the Old Vic, one of the city's oldest theatres.[19] Appearing at a press conference with Judi Dench and Elton John, he promised both to appear on stage and to bring in big-name talent.[20] Spacey undertook to remain in the post for a full ten years. The Old Vic Theatre Company staged shows eight months out of the year. Spacey's first season started in September 2004, and opened with the British premiere of the play Cloaca by Maria Goos, directed by Spacey, which opened to mixed reviews.[21] In the 2005 season, Spacey made his UK Shakespearean debut, to good notices, in the title role of Richard II directed by Trevor Nunn.[21]
In mid-2006, Spacey said that he was having the time of his life working at the Old Vic; at that point in his career, he said, he was "trying to do things now that are much bigger and outside himself".[22] He performed in productions of National Anthems by Dennis McIntyre, and The Philadelphia Story by Philip Barry in which he played C.K. Dexter Haven, the Cary Grant role in the film version. Critics applauded Spacey for taking on the management of a theatre, but noted that while his acting was impressive, his skills and judgment as a producer/manager had yet to develop.[citation needed]
In the 2006 season, Spacey suffered a major setback with a production of Arthur Miller's Resurrection Blues, directed by Robert Altman.[23] Despite an all-star cast (including Neve Campbell and Matthew Modine) and the pedigree of Miller's script, Spacey's decision to lure Altman to the stage proved disastrous: after a fraught rehearsal period, the play opened to a critical panning, and closed after only a few weeks.[22] Later in the year, Spacey starred in Eugene O'Neill's A Moon for the Misbegotten, along with Colm Meaney and Eve Best. The play received excellent reviews for Spacey and Best, and was transferred to Broadway in 2007. For the spring part of the 2007–08 season, Jeff Goldblum and Laura Michelle Kelly joined Spacey as the three characters in David Mamet's 1988 play Speed-the-Plow.[24]
In January 2009, he directed the premiere of Joe Sutton's Complicit, with Richard Dreyfuss, David Suchet and Elizabeth McGovern.[citation needed]
In September 2009, Trevor Nunn directed Spacey in a revival of Inherit The Wind. Spacey played defense lawyer Henry Drummond, a role that was made famous by Spencer Tracy in the 1960 film of the same name.[citation needed]
Sam Mendes directed Spacey in a Shakespeare's Richard III; Spacey played the title role. The show began in June 2011, commencing a worldwide tour culminating in New York in early 2012.[25] In March 2014, it was announced that Spacey would star in a one man play at the Old Vic to celebrate his 10 years as artistic director. He took on the part of Clarence Darrow in the play.[26]
Spacey was awarded a Doctor of Letters, honoris causa from the London South Bank University in November 2005.[27]
In June 2008, he was appointed as Cameron Mackintosh Visiting Professor of Contemporary Theatre at St Catherine's College, Oxford, succeeding Patrick Stewart in the post. He was officially welcomed on October 13, 2008.[28]
On November 3, 2010, he was invested as an honorary CBE by Prince Charles at Clarence House, on behalf of the Queen, for services to drama.[29]
A 1999 Sunday Times article stated that Spacey's "love affair with acting, and the absence of a visible partner in the life of an attractive 40-year-old, has resulted in misunderstanding and Esquire magazine's bet-hedging assertion two years ago that he must be gay".[30] He responded to such rumours by telling Playboy and other interviewers that he was not gay,[31] and telling Lesley White of the Sunday Times, "I chose for a long time not to answer these questions because of the manner in which they were asked, and because I was never talking to someone I trusted, so why should I? Recently I chose to participate because it's a little hard on the people I love."[citation needed]
In an interview with Gotham Magazine, Spacey said, "I've just never believed in pimping my personal life out for publicity. I'm not interested in doing it. Never will do it. They can gossip all they want; they can speculate all they want. I just happen to believe that there's a public life and there's a private life. Everybody has a right to a private life no matter what their profession is."[32] In 2000, he took his girlfriend of several years to the Academy Awards and thanked her during the acceptance speech for his Best Actor award.[32] Reports in 1999 and 2000 suggested that she was a script supervisor named Dianne Dreyer.[32][33][34][35]
In September 2006, Spacey said that he intends to take up British citizenship when it becomes available to him.[36][37] He is a Democrat and a friend of Bill Clinton, having met the former U.S. President before his presidency began. He described Clinton as "one of the shining lights" of the political process.[9] According to Federal Election Commission data, as of 2006, Spacey had contributed $42,000 to Democratic candidates and committees.[38] He additionally made a cameo appearance in the short film President Clinton: Final Days, a light-hearted political satire produced by the Clinton administration for the White House Correspondents Dinner.[39]
In September 2007, Spacey met Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez. Neither spoke to the press about their encounter, but hours later, Spacey visited the government-funded film studio Villa del Cine.[40] In December 2007, he co-hosted the Nobel Peace Prize Concert with Uma Thurman.[41] In March 2011, following Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko's crackdown on the Belarusian democracy movement, Spacey joined Jude Law and others in street protests against Lukashenko.[42]

Sunni Islam in Lebanon have followers who constitutes 27% of Lebanon's population of approximately 4.3 million, which means they amount to 1,160,000.[1] Sunnis are concentrated in west Beirut, Tripoli, Sidon and in the countryside of the Akkar.[2] Under the terms of an agreement known as the National Pact between the various political and religious leaders of Lebanon, Sunni notables traditionally held power in the Lebanese state together, and they are still the only sect eligible for the post of Prime Minister.[3] Within the Lebanese context, especially political, the group is seen as an ethnoreligious group.[4][5]
Lebanon's Sunni community is among the largest ethnopolitical groups and comprises around one-third of the total population. Sunnis are widely dispersed in Lebanon with the majority of Lebanese Sunnis residing in urban centers (more than two-thirds living in Beirut, Tripoli and Sidon), and rural Sunnis living in the Akkar region, the western Bekka Valley, and in the Shuf Mountains. They share other Lebanese groups' ethnic Arab background and Arabic language.
With the Lebanese civil war ending in 1990, and parliamentary elections being held throughout the 1990s and into 2000, most of the previously warring factions were satisfied with the reforms to the electoral system and took part in the political process. Since resolved, Lebanon's fragile peace is dependent on a sectarian governmental structure, where the President is a Maronite Christian, the Prime Minister a Sunni Muslim, and the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies a Shia Muslim. Lebanon's re-emergent sectarian structure allows for little cultural, economic, or political discrimination against the Sunni population. Some Sunnis in particular have embraced the political system, due to not being as militarily powerful as they were in the past (e.g., the Sunni militia "Mourabitoun" suffered a number of humiliating defeats in Beirut during the 1980s, and the rise of Shi'a organizations such as Amal and Hizbollah decreased Sunni militancy). As mentioned above, the Prime Minister is to be of Sunni origin, and this post has seen increased influence as part of Maronite-Sunni negotiations. The Prime Minister is specifically in charge of domestic economic reform, and after decades of civil war Lebanon is finally beginning to rebuild its cities and get its economy back in order. If reforms continue to be successful, Sunni leaders will continue to receive support from the population in general.
However, despite decreased Sunni militancy, smaller pockets of Sunni youth continue violence against churches. In December 1999, Sunni extremists killed four LAF soldiers in an ambush in the northern region of Dinniyeh after the soldiers attempted to arrest two Sunni Muslims allegedly involved in a series of church bombings. On December 31, 1999, the LAF retaliated by launching a massive military operation against Sunni extremists in the north. Five civilians, 7 LAF soldiers, and 15 insurgents were killed in the operation. Amnesty International reported in 2003 that the Dinniyeh detainees have been subject to unfair trial and torture. Beyond the reports of torture and a few arrests of Sunni militants by the Lebanese Army, there have been no other reports of government repression since 2001. Perhaps for this reason there have been few public protests by Sunnis against the Lebanese government, an exception being a pro-Syria rally in 2001, which was more a reaction to anti-Syrian Christian protests than a protest directly against any overt Lebanese government action, since there were no substantial governmental efforts to end Syrian influence.[6]
With Saudi Arabia[edit]
The Sunnis of Lebanon have close ties with Saudi Arabia, which supports them financially.[7][8] Moreover, Tripoli, the stronghold of the Lebanese Sunnis, is also the birthplace of Lebanon's Salafi Movement, a puritanical Sunni movement from Saudi Arabia.[9]
With Lebanese Alawites and Syria[edit]
Sunni Muslims and Alawites have been in conflict with each other for centuries. The Alawites of the Levant were oppressed by the Sunni Ottoman Empire, but gained power and influence when the French recruited Alawites as soldiers during the French mandate of Syria.[10][11][12] After independence from France, their co-religionists the Assad family came to power in Syria in 1970.[13]
Over the years, there have been numerous clashes between the Sunni and Alawi communities in Tripoli, particularly over the past 14 months since Syria's uprising began, as part of the Arab Spring that started in Tunisia. The deadliest exchange took place last June, when seven people were killed and more than 60 wounded, after Sunni Muslims staged a protest against the Assad regime.
At the best of times, the Alawites are regarded by Sunnis as heretics; at times of tension, when thousands of Sunnis in Syria are being killed, they are regarded as the enemy. And when a popular Salafist figure is strangely abducted and arrested by Lebanon's General Security Service – an organization linked to the Shia Hezbollah militia that, in turn, is linked to the Assad regime – the Alawites become the whipping boys.[14]
The last census in Lebanon in 1932 put the numbers of Sunnis at 22% of the population (178,100 of 791,700).[15] A study done by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 1985 put the numbers of Sunnis at 27% of the population (595,000 of 2,228,000).[15]
Lebanese Sunni Muslims constitutes 27% of Lebanon's population of approximately 4.3 million, which means they amount to 1,160,00 as of 2012.[1]

Why Worry? The Obama Tax Plan Is DOA Anyway
Wow! Check these out:
- Obama Is Looking for Jobs In All the Wrong Places
- Not Taxes or Deficit, It's a Lack of Lending
- Class Warfare Explains Obama's Bizarre Tax Attack
- Why, and How to Tax the Super-Rich
- The Buffett Tax Is a Blast To An Ugly Past
- Buffett's Fastball On the Buffett Tax
This is just from yesterday morning's press. There is clearly a lot of bluster about the newest Obama plan. But forget your ideology for a moment and think like a rational investor who cares less about who's in office and more about asset prices. On that basis, there's not much reason to fret about the Obama plan—it is probably a lifeless corpse on arrival. Maybe some small pieces will make it into the final deficit cutting commission's plan come November, but otherwise the plan will likely get zero support in the chambers of Congress. The part that's hard to figure is Obama's current political gambit—it doesn't seem this plan (even its mere proposal) is likely to win him many centrist voters in battleground swing states. Then again, the election is still more than a year away, and much can happen in between.

MTS Centre, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- St. Louis Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said his team earned Kevin Shattenkirk's power-play goal late in the third period that let them leave Winnipeg with a 2-1 win Tuesday.
"It was a seeing-eye shot but, if you look at the shift, we outfought for three pucks just to get that opportunity, which is what happened for the whole third period, which was really impressive," Hitchcock said.
The Blues' win over the Jets got them going in the right direction after they lost three of four entering the game.
"As the game wore on, our confidence came back to fight for pucks and to battle," Hitchcock said. "I thought the debris from what happened here in the last week or so started to eliminate and we just started to get our spirit back."
Bryan Little scored for the Jets, who outshot the Blues 8-2 in the first period.
It looked as if Shattenkirk's shot may have glanced off Little, among others, on the way into the Jets' net.
"It was disappointing, just because we worked to get back in the game and tied it up and then they get one that bounces off a couple of things and goes in ... right at the end of the game," said Little, Winnipeg's leading scorer with 13 goals and 28 points.
"To lose that way is definitely frustrating."
Alex Steen got things started in the second with the Blues' first goal.
He was behind the Winnipeg goal line midway between the net and the boards at 4:44 when he slid a puck behind Ondrej Pavelec that banked off the Winnipeg goalie to put the Blues ahead 1-0.
Pavelec was focusing on those in front of the net rather than the Blues' leading scorer to his right. It was Steen's 21st goal of the season.
"It was a hard-fought game today, really tight net, both teams clogged neutral zones and D-zones," said Steen, who was born in Winnipeg and is the son of original Jet Thomas Steen, now a city councilor in his adopted hometown.
"Both goalies played really well, it was a good game today, a fun game," Steen said.
As for his shot, he shrugged it off.
"I don't know. I try it every now and then in practice. I've tried it a couple of times in games."
Jets coach Claude Noel was disappointed with the loss but not unhappy with the way his team played the Blues.
"I thought the game was a game that was chess-match played game really," he said.
"Both teams were being patient, playing kind of the same way, knowing that one goal or two goals could win it. I thought we played a pretty good game other than the fact that we didn't finish the game the right way. They scored a seeing-eye power-play goal, what can you do?"
Little evened things up just three minutes into the third period as he won a faceoff and then snapped a pass from linemate Andrew Ladd past Brian Elliott on a power play, thanks to a tripping call against Vladimir Sobotka.
Jets defenseman Dustin Byfuglien was sent off with just over three minutes left in the game for hooking, which gave Shattenkirk his chance to score his third goal of the season.
St. Louis was coming off a 5-2 home-ice loss to Anaheim. The Jets hadn't played at home since Nov. 23, but were 4-2 on an Eastern road swing, although this was their fourth straight loss at home.
"I thought we did the necessary things to win the game, possibly 2-1, that was the game that was going to get played out and it did get played out," Noel said.
Game notes
Jets' Mark Stuart left in the third bleeding from the mouth after a goalmouth scramble. ... Wheeler had been on a three-game point streak going into the game. ... The Jets are still the only team in the Central that has managed to beat the Blues this season, 4-3 in a shootout Oct. 18. ... St. Louis went into Tuesday's came with a 9-0-1 record against division opponents.

Czech Republic Church Books from the Třeboň Regional ArchiveEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
Back to Czech Republic Page►
Třeboň Regional Archive made their parish registers available through its digital archive with an English interface.
Go to: http://digi.ceskearchivy.cz/
Click on the Parish Registers folder on the left. Choose type of registers according to religion. Click on the beginning letter of the parish. Select the parish and choose the register type and time frame you wish to search.
Records Description
Church books contain baptism (birth), marriage, and burial (death) information and are definitely the best source for identifying one's relatives in the Czech Republic.
Entries are usually arranged in chronological order and, after 1784, in a columnar format. Sometimes, baptisms, marriages, and burials are kept all for all villages in a parish, for each year. Other times, each village has its own section of baptisms, marriages, and burials, listed chronologically. Some records are in preprinted forms. Most records include indexes. Czech church records are usually in one of three languages: Czech, German, or Latin.
While the books have been kept to the present, they are only available for research through 1905 because of privacy laws. The church books cover a majority of the population.
Records Content
Baptismal entries usually contain the following:
- names of the child, parents, godparents, and sometimes grandparents
- date and place of birth and baptism
- residence and religion of the parents
- whether the child was legitimate or illegitimate
Marriage entries usually contain the following:
- names of the bride, groom, their parents, witnesses, and sometimes grandparents
- date and place of marriage
- residence and religion of the bride and groom
- age, previous marital status, and occupation of bride and groom
Burial entries usually contain the following:
- names of the deceased and spouse/parents
- date and place of death and burial

by Brian Moulton, Legal Director, Human Rights Campaign. This post is part of an ACSblog symposium on Hollingsworth v. Perry and U.S. v. Windsor.
Alongside the core due process and equal protection considerations about marriage equality before the Supreme Court in Windsor v. United States and Hollingsworth v. Perry is a question that could have broader ramifications in the movement for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality – whether laws that discriminate based on sexual orientation should be subject to some form of heightened judicial scrutiny.
To date, the Supreme Court has not directly addressed the question of whether heightened scrutiny should apply to laws that discriminate against gays and lesbians. While many of the U.S. Courts of Appeal have done so, and answered in the negative, those precedents were almost universally dependent on the Court's decision in Bowers v. Hardwick upholding the constitutionality of sodomy laws, a decision that was repudiated nearly a decade ago in Lawrence v. Texas, leaving those precedents standing on the shakiest of ground. It is no wonder then that, in one of the first post-Lawrence cases to consider the issue, the Second Circuit in Windsor concluded that heightened scrutiny should indeed apply to sexual orientation-based classifications.
In its heightened scrutiny analysis, the Court has typically looked at whether the group defined by the classification in question has experienced a history of discrimination and whether that classifying characteristic is relevant to an individual's ability to contribute to society. The Court has sometimes considered two additional factors: whether that defining characteristic is immutable, and whether the group is politically vulnerable.

+ - Law and Governance as a "Social Technology"
Anonymous Coward
An anonymous reader writes "Virgin's Entrepreneur blog has an article on an idea called "Startup Cities" which argues that governments should adopt the trial-and-error processes of tech startups. By giving municipalities strong autonomy, the article argues, reforms can be piloted on a smaller scale as different municipalities try different political solutions. From the article: "The biggest paradox of today's world is that we have rapid, constant progress in physical technologies like phones and computers, but billions of people have no access at all to good law and governance, or what you might call 'social technologies'. If we can treat law and governance as tech – then perhaps we can innovate in it." The idea brings to mind Nassim Taleb's argument that political risk should be spread over small, local jurisdictions so that policies don't bring down entire countries if they fail."

Network disconnecitons and how the game handles bad connections..
I'm playing from NZ and I must say that we are a few years behind the rest of the world when it comes to internet. The problem is I haven't been able to play properly since this weekend.
I can join and start a game with a ping around 150ms. But after a while it just goes up to about 1500ms and I get disconnected. The whole process takes about 3 for 4 mins before I can click on reconnect. 1) What is going on?? :-s 2) How about a quicker process of dropping players when a bad connection is detected? |

The Wal-Mart Supercenter in Shallotte was evacuated last Thursday night after a fire was set in the women's undergarments department, Shallotte Fire Chief Paul Dunwell said.
The fire was reported at about 5:50 p.m. after customers reported seeing flames from a rack of undergarments shoot in the air as high as 10 feet, detective Eric King of the Shallotte Police Department said.
SUNSET BEACH—Town council last week discussed a payback period for the town's estimated $33 million sewer project slated to launch next year, with completion by 2011.
Town attorney Michael Isenberg said, following recent discussion with Brunswick County Attorney Huey Marshall, there is no way it could be done for more than 10 years.
He said at the Aug. 4 meeting a new act allowing for 30 years "doesn't apply in our situation."
A tax district could be set up in which people pay a separate tax.
Preparing children to go back to school can be costly, but necessary to make sure a productive day in the classroom is possible.
Going back-to-school shopping has been an expensive outing long before gas was $4 a gallon. Even though it was an expensive time of year, my parents made sure we had everything we needed, and most times a little more.
Over the past seven decades, there have been dramatic events in my professional and personal life worth sharing and reflecting, like the miracle of birth and the tragedy of death.
Delivering the first baby
Police officers are trained to respond to a substantial number of calls for service. I had never actually watched a live birth, let alone been the sole assistant for a young woman desperately needing help at a most critical time of her life.
Nevertheless, I was dealt that card one afternoon as I was on patrol early in my law enforcement career.
I had just lain down when a menacing dark blob high on the mango-hued wall caught my weary eyes.
Even in the dark, my sixth-sense bug-detector went off. Is thatee? I wondered, snapping on the lamp and squinting toward the ceiling.
Yep, it was.
An August "palmetto bug" had decided to pay a less-than-August, uninvited visit into the living room—my living room. He was staring down at me from his lofty perch, giggling and daring me to take action.
"Catch me if you can," he snickered.
Thanks to those of you who have taken time to respond to the call I put out last week for feedback about our television listings.
Readers have called, mailed and e-mailed suggestions about what we can do to make our television listings more user friendly.
I'm collecting all the suggestions and soon we'll take those comments and evaluate our current product. The goal will be to determine what, if any, changes we need to make or if we need to continue to offer the service at all.
The following cases were adjudicated over five days of District Criminal Court on July 30, 31 and Aug. 1, 4 and 5 in Bolivia.
Wednesday, July 30
Judge Jerry A. Jolly presided over the following cases with prosecutor Erin Holden and courtroom clerk Michelle Warth:
Demetric L. Baldwin, speeding 64 in a 55 zone, costs; failure to secure passenger under 16, voluntarily dismissed.
Charles Bell, communicating threats, voluntarily dismissed.
West Brunswick and South Brunswick will be among the teams competing in the 22nd annual BB&T Football Jamboree Friday at Legion Stadium in Wilmington.
The prep scrimmage is a fundraiser for 10 southeastern North Carolina high schools and student scholarships.
The Jamboree begins at 5 p.m., with a cheerleading showcase featuring 10 schools, including West Brunswick and South Brunswick.
Pat Sandifer, widow of longtime county commissioner David Sandifer, joked she had to nail the back door of David's office shut so he wouldn't sneak out and play golf instead of work.
"He played every opportunity he got," Pat Sandifer said.
It's a fitting tribute then, she said, that an upcoming golf tournament includes two of his passions—golf and education.
High school football is getting ready to kick off, and The Beacon and ATMC want to make sure everyone is ready for another season.
Tune in to ATMC Channel 3 next week for ongoing high school football coverage throughout the season. On Wednesday nights, ATMC will broadcast all West Brunswick home football games.
The Beacon recently teamed up with ATMC to produce a preseason coaches' show.
Next week, on ATMC Channel 3, Beacon reporter Caroline Curran tackles all things football with local coaches and players.

The value of a three card hand is calculated by adding up the value of the cards held in any one suit. So if you have three cards of the same suit, you can add up all three. If only two cards are in the same suit you can add those, or use the value of the odd card if it is higher than the sum of the other two. If you have three different suits the value of your hand is the value of the highest card in it. The maximum hand value is 31, consisting of the ace and two ten-point cards of the same suit. A hand of 31 is the Bee's Knees. The ace is worth 11 points, the kings, queens, and jacks are worth 10, and all other cards are worth their face value. Your score is calculated at the end of each round totaling the highest point value of your hand plus the previous rounds - Greener Trolley Dash
