Look to Germany - Gymnasium, Realschule, and Hauptschule.
This is a very positive article about changes in secondary education in the US. I just hope that the teachers' unions around the country won't get in the way.
As the program continues, it is important to remember to compare the statistics for students inside to those who remain in other Chicago public schools. The higher-than-average graduation rate may very well be a factor of self-selection, where the students (or parents of students) who bothered to apply were those most likely to graduate (or push their children to graduate) in the first place. That said, I would rather try something new in our educational system and see if it works. We just have to be sure we are measuring things as they are, not as we want them to be.
If the schools aren't working for the students they are serving, then we need to make a change to that district. This is Chicago's attempt at change, and the data that is available about its charter schools is very positive. A study released yesterday that was conducted by Rand Corp. (Mathematica researchers and Florida State University also participated) found that students who attend Chicago charter high schools are more likely to graduate and attend college. They also do better on the ACTs.
While the study does not indicate why students at Chicago's charter high schools are having this success, it could be related to many things - one of them being the longer school day that is offered by many of the schools. Most traditional public schools do not offer an extended day because of teacher union regulations. In the corporate sector, people will devote 10 and 12 hours of their time each day to ensure the success of a product. Aren't our children worth at least that much time?
Yes, a two tiered system (multi-tiered would be even better). Separate those who can not or will not learn; put them where they can do others no harm. They will not be any worse off than they are now, but the 80% who want to learn and succeed will no longer be dragged down by those who choose to fail. Charter schools will succeed as long as they have the option of expelling those students who don't want to learn.

A connector employs a glass sleeve having a ceramic ferrule fixed in one end and containing an optical fiber having its presentation end factory ground. The opposite end of the glass sleeve is formed to receive a fiber during a field installation. The middle portion of the sleeve contains an elastomeric pair which receives the ends of the fibers.
1. A field installable fiber optic connector comprising: an elongated tubular splice sleeve having a longitudinal axis and a first end formed to receive and align an optical fiber, said first end including a first diametered bore extending a given distance inwardly of said sleeve and tapering to a narrower, second diametered bore, said first diametered bore being of a size to receive a coated fiber and said second diametered bore being of a size to receive a stripped fiber; said sleeve having a middle portion and a contiguous second end, said middle portion having a third diametered bore, larger than said first diametered bore and containing a mated pair of elastomeric halves, which when mated form a fiber receiving bore there through, therein; said second end having a fourth diametered bore; a ceramic ferrule mounted in said fourth diametered bore, said ceramic ferrule comprised of a cylindrical member having an outside diameter equal to said fourth diametered bore and containing a longitudinal bore to receive an optical fiber, and an optical fiber therein, said optical fiber having one end terminating at the outside surface of said ferrule and having its other end projecting inwardly of said sleeve and terminating at the halfway point of said elastomeric halves.
2. The connector of claim 1 wherein a first vent hole is provided in said first diametered bore adjacent said second diametered bore and a second vent hole is provided in said third diametered bore between an end of said mated pair of elastomeric halves and the inner end of said ferrule.
This invention relates to fiber optic connectors and more particularly to fiber optic connectors that are easily field installable.
Fiber optic connectors are known commodities whose use is increasing dramatically. Such connectors usually employ an assembly which contains a ceramic ferrule at one end, this ferrule containing a centrally located optical fiber. The mating end of the ferrule and its associated fiber are usually factory polished so that a satisfactory butt joint may be consummated with an adjoining connector. The connector has an extended length of optical fiber projecting from its opposite end and, to utilize the connector, another optical fiber is spliced to the distal end of the fiber.
While this technique poses few problems in a factory or laboratory environment, it would be advantageous to have a connector that would be easily field installable.
It is, therefore, on object of this invention to provide a simple, field installable connector that utilizes a polished fiber end.
This is accomplished, in one aspect of the invention, by the provision of a field installable connector comprised of a tubular splice sleeve having a first end formed to receive an optical fiber and a second end formed to provide a ceramic ferrule containing a polished fiber section. A middle portion of the sleeve contains a mated pair of elastomeric halves. The ferrule mounted fiber extends about half way into the elastomeric halves. To field mount the connector a fiber has its end stripped and inserted into the sleeve until the fiber end abuts the ferrule fiber which is already in place. The fiber may be cemented or otherwise affixed in position to complete the connector.
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a splice sleeve;
FIG. 2 is a similar view showing the mated pair of elastomers in place;
FIG. 3 is a similar view showing the ceramic ferrule in place; and
FIG. 4 is a similar view of a completed connection.
For a better understanding of the present invention, together with other and further objects, advantages and capablities thereof, reference is made to the following disclosure and appended claims taken in conjunction with the above-described drawings.
Referring now to the drawings with greater particularity, there is shown in FIG. 4 a field installable fiber optic connector comprising an elongated tubular splice sleeve 12 having a longitudinal axis 14 and a first end 16 formed to receive and align an optical fiber. The first end 16 includes a first diametered bore 20 extending a given distance 22 inwardly of sleeve 12 and tapering to a narrower, second diametered bore 24. The first diametered bore 20 is of a size to receive the coated portion 26 of a fiber 28 and the second diametered bore 24 is of a size to receive a stripped fiber 30. A middle portion 32 and a contiguous second end 34 extend sequentially from the first end 16. The middle portion 32 has a third diametered bore 38 which is larger than the first diametered bore 20 and contains a mated pair 40 of elastomeric halves therein. The elastomeric halves can be of the type shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,257,674. The second end 34 has a fourth diametered bore 42 with a ceramic ferrule 44 mounted therein. The ceramic ferrule 44 is comprised of a cylindrical member having an outside diameter equal to the fourth diametered bore 42 and contains a longitudinal bore 46 to receive an optical fiber section 48. The optical fiber section 48 has one end terminating at the outside surface 50 of ferrule 44 and has its other end 52 projecting inwardly of the sleeve 12 and terminating at the halfway point of mated pair 40 of the elastomeric halves.
As shown in FIG. 3, the fiber section 48 can initially project beyond the surface 50 and subsequently be ground to the configuration shown in FIG. 4. This is a factory operation and thus can be critically controlled. The connector as shown in FIG. 3, with the projecting fiber ground down, comprises the part which is taken to the field. Mounting means, not shown, which can comprise a rotatable nut positioned abount second end 34, can be provided, as is known in the art.
To aid in cementing the various parts together a first vent hole 54 is provided in the first diametered bore 20 adjacent the second diametered bore 24 and a second vent hole 56 is provided in the third diametered bore 38 between an end of the mated pair 40 of the elastomeric halves and the inner end of ferrule 44.
For field installation it is only necessary for the lineman to strip a cable 28 and insert the stripped end 30 into the first end 16 until the stripped end 30 butts against the internal end of optical fiber section 48 within the mated pair 40 of the elastomeric halves, as shown in FIG. 4. An adhesive, which can be an ultra-violet activated one, can then be applied about the cable 28.
There is thus provide a field installable fiber optic connector which is simple to use and economical to manufacture. Because the fiber end is factory ground, the connection can be made with less attenuation than other field installable connectors.
While there has been shown and described what is at present considered to be the preferred embodiment of the invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made herein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

The Aquatennial, our annual celebration of dihydrogen monoxide — also known as water — is underway! You can go to the big events if you wish — there's sand-castle building at Lake Harriet today, and according to the new rules, at least 10 percent of the castle must be affordable housing. Or you can just celebrate quietly at home by filling a glass of water and putting on a party hat. However you celebrate it, get out there and enjoy our Salute to America's Favorite Liquid.
There will be the milk carton races, of course, along with the dredging of the lake for last year's losers, who made the mistake of building a boat with those retro glass milk containers. To liven things up, the lake has been stocked with piranhas, in keeping with the theme "Bite Off a Chunk of Summer." If your first name is Summer, you may want to skip it.
Canceled: The annual "Lazy Ol' Creek Ramble," where participants float down Minnehaha Creek; it's so high and fast this year that participants would shoot over the falls at 50 miles per hour. Tubing is not a sport that easily incorporates parachutes.
The highlight of the event is the Torchlight Parade, and I have to say: This makes absolutely no sense. It's like the victory of Fire over its natural enemy, Water. If you're going to dedicate the event to H2O, then the parade should consist of marchers with hoses connected to high-pressure water tanks, dousing everything and everyone.
For that matter, the spectators should be on fire, not the marchers, and the paraders should hose them down to extinguish the blaze. Thus the Triumph of Water, which is what we're celebrating.
So put on your Skipper Pin and be festive — be sure you stop by Lake Calhoun to visit the newest attraction, the Ice Palace in Raw Materials Form. It's just a big trough of water, but with a little imagination you can see what it'll look like.
Soon enough.

Goose Rocks Beach is a great beach for long walks - beautiful sand, nice views…..dog friendly but with restrictions during peak season.
Just went by to see what the beach was like and couldnt find anything that looked like a public entrance. A wildlife refuge at the end of the road, but get good directions for parking if you want to visit.
We recently went to goose rocks on a beautiful sunny day. The kids loved it and it was pretty quiet. In the past we've gone here and found the beach overwhelmed with seaweed. However this time it was gorgeous and others I've talked to say that they've not experienced the beach being littered heavily with. Seaweed. It seems like a...
Hardly anyone around in October, about 6 people on an enermous beach. Surrounded by holiday mansions, no parking charge in October, fine area.
The well packed sand makes the ideal surface for a walk, even if you cannot normally walk on a beach in soft sand. The beach was almost deserted on an ocvercast September afternoon but we would have walked further and stayed longer had there been public restrooms.
This is one if the greatest hidden treasures in the Kennebunkport area! Either summer or after Labor Day, if you like very long walks on a beach where everyone is friendly , says hello and you still have privacy this one is it! Wonderful for children since when the tide goes out every 6 hours they can have lots of...
Beautiful beach with FREE parking and very clean and quiet - what a great place to relax and/or take a walk.
Love love love it here. Pristine huge sand beach with lots to do for kids and adults. Great crab hunting for the kids. Grown ups can relax or paddle board and not worry about kids . Can't wait to go back. Not crowded at all.
It's worth the $12.00 fee to park at Goose Rocks to enjoy this wide, pristine beach. It's very family friendly, with safe areas for children to play, fly kites, test the waters. No dogs allowed on beach, no smoking, no boomboxes: just good clean fun.

The 200 Phenomena Found in the City of Calgary, Alberta
"I found a 200 page composition book in MacEwan hall at the University of Calgary. Each page of the notebook has a different, numbered entry. Despite being numbered, the entries are in no particular order."
-Calganon, 2009
This compilation of 200 of Calgary's unique phenomena is for the perusal of all minds and all peoples: it is no longer restricted to the acolytes and seekers. Please follow the relevant links in the sidebar to begin. The very first paragraph of the "Analysis" section will inform newcomers as to what the Keys are (should you be wondering), and further sections attempt to explain other recurring elements in them. Please check back regularly for more information as it becomes available.
Information regarding site updates can be found in the News section, updated as needed (usually weekly). Features to come (as of 03/12/14) include pictures and relevant historical/factual data that will be added as quotes to the existing entries. The Analysis section will also be fleshed out with every individual mentioned, and various concept webs are to be created soon.

Dear readers, old and new:
To those of you who have returned time and again to read and re-read these entries, thank you for using this resource. It serves me no gain to run this little mystery memoria, and yet it does my heart good to know that I may have yet inspired the minds and hearts of other strangers in a similar way as CalgAnon, who couldn't have possibly anticipated the same. It has been a long five years - for the most part, the intrigue extended through the first two and died off soon after. It has been a slow three years since, but I continue to make changes, to tinker with things here and there in hopes of making a more perfect representation of what is still an incomplete guide. Personal matters have often kept me from even giving this site any thought, but I always come back, always with renewed energy and high hopes for the changes I promise to an ever dwindling reader-base. I apologize for the setbacks; despite most people's lack of caring, I still feel responsible.
To those who are new to this unique and interesting series, welcome. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Explore this site in whatever way you like: you could say it's something of a cultural phenomenon itself. You could say it's quite like the SCP-Foundation, save that new entries have never and will never be created for the original series. I say this because CalgAnon may yet still be out there, waiting to release the remaining 85, biding his or her time. We may never know - and it is for that reason that I feel it is better to leave them unfinished, incomplete - it is more real that way.
The mystery and the legend lives on, even to this day, and I hope as the curator I have been able to do it as much justice as possible. If you, like I, experience more than a passing interest in these phenomena, I encourage you to join the site and post in the forums. Who knows? We may just find some larger truth hidden in the shadows.
I'll be tending to the 4chan post for the remainder of the afternoon, so please join me in celebrating CalgAnon's legacy. The link below will direct you there.
Thanks so much,
Dr. Johnson

Show me an employee who says the money doesn't matter and I'll show you someone whose nose is growing.

This hybrid position is an insult to the field. These firms combine the paralegal/legal assistant (or legal secretary) positions. This move pushes the paralegal field down and demotes the paralegal by adding responsibilities that are better delegated to a lower competent level. If you are asked, "How fast do you type?" in an interview, beware! You're most likely going to be expected to perform secretarial duties. Let me ask you: Have you fought your way through your career to get more sophisticated responsibilities only to be asked to have half your job duties coming from the spot on the org chart below you? I think not. Continue reading

2015! Predictions for each new year is a c**pshoot. How can you know? Based on what?

"Here is what Robert Denny says is slated to happen in 2015. My take on things is that he's probably 95% correct for lawyers.

Our guest blogger today is Katherine Giacolone, The Corporate Nanny All too often we have conflicting work priorities. We're all working managers with daily tasks that have to get done and new assignments that come and go. We don't have a whole lot of room for organizational emergencies or pop-up projects!

What Attorneys Really Think About Paralegals - Inside Scoop CBE: Let's talk politics. Why can some attorneys work with paralegals until midnight but wouldn't be caught dead having lunch with them.

Confusing the certified with certificate says you don't know your career. How sad is that? You need to be able to represent yourself correctly. Saying you are certified when you received a certificate of completion or achievement after completing either a course or even a 3-day workshop is not only a misnomer, it could be construed as misrepresentation. Would a lawyer say he/she is a lawyer if they didn't take the Bar exam? Continue reading

Dubois, of course, has to make sure that he cites a paralegal who stole some money as a possible example of why paralegals should not be given more power. Get real, Dubois. Paralegals in that kind of trouble are rare which is why it hits the news.

Will the traditional law firm survive? If " traditional" encompasses the status quo -- incentives that measure and reward billable hours, a pyramid structure where large numbers of associates are hired, weeded out and then promoted to the partnership by doing really good work and putting in excessive hours, where client matters are each approached in a bespoke manner -- the answer to the title question is "no."

Ellen: I absolutely love your comments. Perhaps you need a teeny, tiny boost to your self-confidence! In my humble opinion (oh, isn't that IMHO?), paralegals, particularly those with fresh, innovative thoughts such as yourself, should not be shy about posting or writing. Here's the perfect opportunity to get yourself known in the community. Your thoughts are important to other paralegals. They can agree, they can disagree or they can learn. Whatever the response, times have changed and it is important to your career to ride the horse in the direction it is going. In this case, participation in social media will help boost your career!

Ariz. Voters Pick Giffords' Aide To Replace Her
By Ted Robbins
Voters in Southern Arizona decided Tuesday who will replace former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords for the remainder of her term: her former district director, Ron Barber. Giffords resigned from Congress in January to focus on recovery from injuries she suffered in a shooting in early 2011. Barber was also injured. His Republican opponent, Tucson businessman Jesse Kelly, narrowly lost to Giffords two years ago.

Learning from a 'mom-preneur'
When Yenny Saw, owner and country manager of Global Art Philippines, became pregnant with her second daughter, she decided to open her own company because she wanted to get away from the daily rigors of going to the office so she can have more time for the children.
"My job and career now have to take second place as I see it as a treat to myself to still be able to work even after being a mom. So I shouldn't be selfish," Saw says, a business administration and operational management graduate of Seattle University in Washington in an e-mail interview with the BusinessMirror.
After a long search, she stumbled upon Global Art, an international art-enrichment program that teaches children from 3 years old to adult how to think creatively using visual art as a vehicle. When she was working as principal at an International School in Surabaya, Indonesia, she was already familiar with Global Art as a quality education center for parents with small children. She started establishing communications with the head office in Malaysia. Previously, she also worked as an operational and finance officer in PT. Ecco Indonesia from 2000 to 2001. She also operated and managed Dino's Den Children's Bookstore in Surabaya, Indonesia from 2002 to 2006.
"Aside from preparing for the financial needs to acquire the master franchise license for the Philippines, I also had to secure a solid and strong support system at home; finding the right caretakers for my daughters was another requirement before I allow myself to work again. That was a big challenge too," Saw points out.
To help Saw decide if she will pursue or not the business, her husband joined the trip to have a weeklong meeting with the Global Art founder and officials in Malaysia to get to know what it takes to make the business successful. After spending a few days in Malaysia, she was convinced that that Global Art is worth running because they share the same vision and goals. Before flying back to Manila, she signed the agreement for a franchise.
Saw admits being a "mom-preneur" is tough. Her regular routine consisted of waking up early to nurse her baby, play with the other child and ensure she has healthy and good breakfast to be able to produce enough milk to be stored for the baby for the whole day. Despite a hard day's work in the office, Saw is happy and fulfilled when comes home. "I just have to make sure that my family feels as happy and fulfilled as I am," she says.
Being a control freak helps Saw manage her busy schedule. "Having a list of what to do at work and at home helps me a lot to get things done in a timely manner," Saw says.
Empowering the staff is another way to lessen Saw's workload. "And I also have to be able to delegate and trust other people, something that is quite a challenge for a control freak as I am," Saw says. As a mother-entrepreneur, she says "me time" is gone. "I practically, ate, slept and scheduled my activities around and for my children and the company," Saw says.
At the end of the day, Saw is aware that it's hard to juggle career and parenting; and communication will play a vital role in determining their sentiments. "Being in touch with my daughters and staff and customers/clients will keep me in the balance. There is no perfect formula. I just have to be sensitive of their needs," Saw says. "When I hear my daughters complaining about me spending too much time at work, I would slow down a bit and find ways to fill their emotional tanks. When I see that my staff or franchisees need my help and guidance, I would try to be with them even when they did not ask me to."

We protected nearly 12,000 acres of farms and forestland in 2014 -- quite a year! The thousands of people who support our work help make this all possible.
Not a member? Please join today!
For immediate relase: March 24, 2015
Bennington -- After a huge community fundraising effort, the Town of Bennington has purchased 168 acres just blocks from downtown. The land is a mix of uplands, wetlands, and streams, and is home to a variety of wildlife.
On Tuesday, March 24 it was permanently protected as a natural area for public recreation.
The land is accessible from Beech Street and Morgan Street and is situated along Jewett Brook, South Stream, and the Walloomsac River. Miles of trails and open watercourses will provide opportunities for hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, bird watching, snowshoeing, cross-county skiing, and other non-motorized pursuits.
It is the only "natural" area in the Town's inventory of parkland.
For immediate release: February 10, 2015
Highgate & Berkshire —Three farms were recently conserved in Franklin County: the Bernard and Sue Rainville farm in Highgate and two farms in Berkshire owned by John and Margie Barabe. The families conserved their properties with the Vermont Land Trust, which will ensure that the land will always be available for farming and forestry. Both families protected the land by selling a conservation easement—a legal tool that limits subdivision and development. The proceeds from the sales will help the Rainvilles and the Barabes transfer their farms to the next generation.
The Rainvilles bought their farm in 1977. Its wide open fields of hay and pasture support a herd of organic dairy cows. They also grow soybeans for feed. They are planning to transfer the farm to their son Louis and his wife, Maggie, in the future.
For immediate release: January 30, 2015
Guildhall -- Farmers Chris and Hannah Fay were able to expand their dairy farm by selling a conservation easement to the Vermont Land Trust on property they had just purchased. As part of the conservation project, they also donated land to The Nature Conservancy that will become part of the Great Guildhall Swamp Preserve. The Fays had been renting the parcel for several years and using it for hay to support their dairy herd. The sale of the easement made buying the land more affordable.
"We conserved this land because we felt it was a prime development spot and wanted to help protect agriculture in the state," said Hannah about their decision. "Even if our own kids don't want to farm the land, it will still be available to feed the growing population." The Fays manage a 200-cow dairy that is located further north in Maidstone. Their home farm was conserved with the Vermont Land Trust in 2007.
For immediate release: January 6, 2015
Craftsbury, Glover and Greensboro -- Fairmont Dairy LLC, a partnership of Richard and Bonnie Hall and their nephew Tucker Purchase, conserved 271 acres of farmland with the Vermont Land Trust. The land is located along South Albany Road in Craftsbury, Glover and Greensboro.
Fairmont Farm is a third-generation dairy based in East Montpelier. In 2006 the farm expanded into East Craftsbury after the family bought the former Calderwood farm. Investments into this satellite operation further expanded and modernized the farm's infrastructure. The family then purchased two additional properties in close proximity, including the former Kinsey dairy farm, which has most of its acreage in Craftsbury.
For immediate release: December 30, 2014
Elmore and Worcester -- A long-sought-after opportunity to protect thousands of acres of well-stocked forestland with outstanding wildlife habitat is on its way to being realized.
The Vermont Land Trust (VLT) purchased 5,600 acres of forestland that has been owned for more than 60 years by the Deer Lake Timber Company, a family-owned company with deep ties to Vermont.
The purchase has sparked an extensive effort to conserve more than 19,000 acres through both easement donations from private landowners and funding from the federal Forest Legacy program.
"Opportunities like this don't come along very often," said Gil Livingston, President of VLT. "We feel fortunate to be able to help Vermont make the long-term protection of important forestland possible."
The land, known locally as Worcester Woods, is located along both sides of Route 12 between Worcester and Elmore. In addition to its value to the timber economy, the conservation of this forestland will protect a large block of internationally significant habitat that connects the Green Mountains, to the Northeast Kingdom, and Quebec's Gaspe Peninsula.
For immediate release: December 23, 2014
Fayston, VT -- The Vermont Land Trust has concluded a rigorous search for new farmers to revive a historic hill farm in Fayston. Following a review of more than 14 proposals, VLT and the Mad River Watershed Conservation Partnership selected local farmers Sebastian and Heather von Trapp, together with Georgia von Trapp and Joey Nagy, to purchase the 283 acre conserved farm on Marble Hill Road.
The von Trapp and Nagy families plan to establish a diversified agricultural operation featuring heifers, chickens, whey-fed pigs and specialty produce to support two existing Valley-based farm and food businesses.
The families' already successful, local food enterprises -- von Trapp Farmstead artisan, organic cheese, and Mad Taco restaurants – are emblematic of the innovative and community-oriented ventures that Vermont residents and visitors alike have come to expect from the Mad River Valley.
For immediate release: December 23, 2014
Rochester -- Travelers going north on Route 100 to the village of Rochester enjoy miles of scenic hay and cornfields, cattle grazing in upland pastures, and the Green Mountain National Forest rising in the background. The Vermont Land Trust announced today that two farms along this road have been permanently conserved.
Myron "Mike" Bowen and Richard Harvey sold conservation easements on their agricultural land and some of their forestland. These easements limit development and subdivision.
Richard Harvey, along with his wife, Alvina, and daughter Julia, operate Riverbend Farm. The farm was once a dairy run by Richard and his brother. These days, the farm produces beef cattle, hay, and sweet corn.
For the Harveys, selling the conservation easement on 167 acres ensures their land will always be available for farming and will help with the eventual transfer of the land to Julia.
"I've wanted to do this for a long time," said Richard. "It's great to know my daughter will be farming here, as will generations to come. I'm also happy that Mike's farm just upriver is being protected at the same time."
For immediate release: December 22, 2014
Wolcott -- Brothers Steve and Oran Young, along with their wives, Jan Roy and Gail Osherenko, donated a conservation easement to the Vermont Land Trust on 84 acres of their family farm along Town Hill Road in Wolcott.
Their decision to work with the land trust came after they inherited the property following the passing of Steve and Oran's parents, John and Eleanor Young.
As a family, they agreed that the land should always remain in farming and forestry. They also felt that, left undeveloped, the land would further protect the ecological integrity of the neighboring Bear Swamp Natural Area.
John and Eleanor Young originally purchased the farm in 1947 to start a Christmas tree operation. Through sales on the wholesale market, their trees graced living rooms as far away as Washington D.C. The Youngs operated the tree business until the 1990s, yet even now, some of their remaining hybrid and experimental trees are used as seed sources by other growers.

Pistorius's brother 'badly hurt' in S.Africa road crash
Published on Aug 2, 2014 5:22 PM
JOHANNESBURG (AFP) - The older brother of South African Paralympian and murder defendant Oscar Pistorius is in hospital after being "badly hurt" in a road crash overnight, the family said Saturday.
Carl Pistorius "was badly hurt but we are thankful that he is out of danger," family spokeswoman Anneliese Burgess said in a statement.
He had been driving along South Africa's main N1 highway heading to Pretoria on Friday night when his car was hit head-on by another car that had swerved from the opposite side of the expressway into the oncoming traffic, she said.
Carl was acquitted in May last year of culpable homicide and reckless driving over a fatal crash in 2008 in which his vehicle collided with a motorbike driven by a woman who died in hospital a few days later.

This Guy Travels From City To City And Asks People What The Last Photo On Their Phone Was
We humans are an interesting bunch.
1. Ivan Cash is an interactive artist & filmmaker living in San Francisco. His ongoing photo series "Last Photo" asks strangers to reveal the last photo on their phone and a bit about the backstory.
2. The project brings a wide array of responses from the lighthearted:
3. To the truly touching:
4. Either way they're usually interesting:
5. "This has honestly been such a fulfilling project. Even more so than I expected," Cash told BuzzFeed.
It's a lot of work, going around and talking to strangers (and oftentimes getting rejected,) but the interactions that go well, those are so damn magical. I love thinking about the possibilities that exist all the time for connection with the strangers around us. The very same strangers that we (myself included) often ignore because we're engulfed in our phone.
I like asking people to see their last photo because it exploits this tension and brings some much-needed awareness to how wrapped up we are with our technology and the digital world, but behind it all, we're all just people. People that duct tape gingerbread houses or take photos of our cat's shit, or take selfies at the spa. And I hope that by shining a spotlight on the ordinary, people will realize the inherent specialness inside each moment.

A life of joy, love, heartache, and challenge
By Teri Conroy | About Farmlife | On Facebook
One of my favorite days of the year
The first Sunday in May – the annual Chicken Swap held at the Schaghticoke Fairgrounds. It's probably the only thing I actually wake up in the middle of my six hours of sleep giddy about. It's also the only thing (next to a llama show) that can actually make (OCD) me put off mucking the […] [Read More]
Call it a day.
I ended my working day a little early tonight. Quite simply, because I was overwhelmed. Winter has it's harsh cold, summer has it's frightening (for the beasts) heat. Spring just has a really, really long to-do list that I can't seem to make a dent in this year. The more I worked, the more I […] [Read More]
Swine Flu (looking for the real truth).
Enough with calling this the Swine Flu already. It's a combination of pig, human, and bird viruses, and is actually the A/H1N1 flu. The damage is done to the swine industry. The government has done the same before, and before, and before. And now Egypt has begun slaughtering pigs. Why? Seems to me it's being […] [Read More]
Um, excuse me.
Just wondering if any readers know how to change how life works. I'm having a little trouble with "they grow so fast". I swear daughter was a toddler last week, and then yesterday she turned 14. I'm sure I never took the years for granted, and I really didn't mean to blink, but whoosh….. […] [Read More]
Special Guest…
Hobby farms are for sharing and I think that sharing this place is what gives it a special glow. That said, this blog was written by a lovely woman who recently visited our farm with her nine year old son. Both have a deep and obvious understanding of animals, and observing them intertwined with the […] [Read More]
Rock My World
We had a white picket fence, and all that goes with it. We still have all that goes with it, and then some. But, the fence is finally gone we are having a rock wall built in it's stead. This has been the view of our front yard since Monday. [Read More]
It has begun.
Springtime Bliss. Some folks think I'm a bit out of the ordinary, even amused that I find such delight in the way things are at this farm. I think I'm happy-normal. I believe that if you find a place in life that you're comfortable in, that is a great and wondrous thing. My place is […] [Read More]
Readers: Share YOUR animal rescue/adoption stories!
I appreciated the comments and stories from "Animal Rescues – Opinions?". The stories of the rescue/animal adoptions were wonderful. Please take this opportunity to share information and stories about animals you've adopted/rescued/re-homed (any type of animal). You can include the name of the rescue or shelter-if you like (links too), how easy or difficult the […] [Read More]

Photos/graphics missing on Firefox

Posted December 31, 2011 at 2:14PM
This is possibly the third time I've asked over several months, so I apologise for repetition but still with no results from the various suggestions. Firefox misses out photos on certain pages, not all of them, but as an example, I have e-bay running on both FF and IE9, a site shows the details of an article, in this case a chainsaw, but when clicking from small illustration to main page, IE9 shows the enlarged photo but Firefox gives all the details except a blank where the photo should be.
For many months I have been used to switching to IE( when I need to see photos but it is a bind.
I have tried a new profile but no change. I suppose the only remedy is a total reinstallation?

i've even gone through "Images or animations do not load" in Mozillazine and none work so far, so I's down to a total uninstall/reinstall or move to Chrome?? but as I have a Nokia Lumia phone I'll probably stick with IE9 although it doesn't have all the extras I like, Samfind especially.

When Paul Walker tragically passed away midway through the production of Furious 7, Universal and director James Wan faced a difficult task. Do they scuttle the film or charge ahead, using rewrites and body doubles to finish Walker's performance? They ultimately went with the latter option but refused to go into any details. Now, a new report confirms that a digitally recreated Walker appears in the film and that he was brought to life by the same company that made Gollum in The Lord of the Rings and Caesar in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
