From January 27, 1950. The opening paragraph read: "The dedication and official opening of the Belleayre Mountain ski slope Saturday afternoon was the greatest day the Catskills have known since the Ulster & Delaware railroad ran its first train to Pine Hill nearly a century ago."
First Tracks
I knew I wanted this week's column to be about the early days of Belleayre and possibly ski patrol but then I stumbled on the Woodward and Bernstein of ski reporting: Frank Elkins. Although a Long Islander, Elkins spent plenty of ink promoting skiing in our area. So I leave a large part of this column to his portrait of the new ski area just as it was entering the 60s.
Happy New Year — Some "Firsts" on the "Fives"
This first column of the year is dedicated to beginnings and fresh starts. I scouted for happy news in the first issues of years ending in five, although 1925 was missing, and I felt it was inappropriate to cheat on that year.
Let's start with an old-fashioned skimelton in Roxbury. Some of the type in this item was cut off, so I don't know if the "skimeltoners" were young men or young people of both genders. Too bad none of them is still here to ask!
Going, Going, Gone
This ad, and the one below, both come from the Dec. 29, 1944 edition, when the war in Europe had been won but Allies still fought the Japanese in the Pacific.
Here Comes Santa Claus
From December 23, 1938
The Christmas Sacrifice
December 1941 turned from Jingle Bells and Deck the Halls to war bonds and sending young men to the front in one fell swoop (literally) when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7. It is still amazing how quickly the country mobilized, in every possible way. Less than a week after the US declared war on Japan and Germany, in the issue of December 12, 1941, you could already read about everything from quelling rumors to how to prepare for a blackout.

Meet what Air Repair calls the "Swiss Army Knife" of beauty products. This multitasking, all-natural skin salve can be applied anywhere and everywhere—to the lips, hands, face, knees, elbows, and even cuticles—to instantly soothe and heal dry skin. The brand's revolutionary combination of emollients effectively inhibits chronic inflammation (or "inflam-aging") that causes dryness, irritation, and premature wrinkles. Plus, the travel-friendly packaging makes it easy to slip into your carry-on, so you can be sure your skin stays soft and supple no matter your destination.
I admit, I horde my Air Reply for the most part because my lips are perpetually chapped whilst living here in "summer land". Primarily I use it for lips, as well as elbows and hands -- or a scrape. It's gentle, healing, absent of scent and just a gorgeous product that gets the job done. The serum is clear and not too thin, nor too thick - an impressive achievement
Works well for my hubby's dry hands and cuticles as well as those of our children - who are more prone to get scrapes and rashy bits. I cannot recommend this product enough!
I purchased this full-sized and was happy with the amount and price. After reading so many good reviews, I had high hopes. It is not super thick, has no fragrance or taste but hydration time was very short (no more than half an hour) and my lips showed little to no noticeable difference in feeling less chapped. Tried some on my elbows but absorbed quickly without any change in the dry skin there.2
This is product is can solve all kinds of problems. I found myself applying it in sequence to my lips, cuticles and elbows right before leaving the house. It's become a great routine to both repair and protect those areas. The smell is also fantastic--a lightly airy floral scent that I love!5
I got this little sample in my Birchbox and it is hands down a LIFESAVER. I get super chapped lips in the winter (cracking and painful), and nothing seems to fix it. However, with one swipe of this balm, it is completely gone (something that would take days with regular chapstick).
It is a little greasy, but with the results I don't even care.

Plant Growth Retardants
Has anyone had experience using plant growth retardants, specifically paclobutrazol (believe it or not, sold under the tradename "Bonzi.")
The material is a gibberillic acid inhibitor which acts to reduce cell elongation. It is also supposed to increase the general health of the plant in that new foliage has higher chlorophyll and carotenoid contents, resulting in higher photosynthetic efficiency.
Bottom line is the result is reduction in foliage size and internodal spacing.
Thanks in advance for your time.
I would question the use of such "growth retardants" in bonsai. Bonzi is used to get uniform heights on onramental plants like poinsettia. I would question whether it makes plants any healthier. It juvenilizes foilage, essentially preventing it from becoming mature. I'm not sure exactly how this works, but I think young foliage is LESS able to photosynthsize than mature foliage,
A few years ago I used a product called cycocel on tropical hibiscus. The nice thing about it was the growth pattern was so compact it was difficult to tell if the plant was even growing. You could get blooms on top of blooms with internodes so small you couldnÂt measure them. Many tropical hibiscus in the floral trade are treated with this product.
The bad thing about the use of this product was the growth was so compact it was difficult to tell if it was growing. The plant never recovers from this treatment and doesnÂt ever return to normal growth. The worst factor in all of this is the shortened lifespan of the plant. I donÂt know of any hibiscus I treated with this product and sold over the years to regular customers that are still around today. I had a tree standard live about ten after its last treatment still looking about the same size as when I first sprayed it.
Actually that was a too cute answer...but the girl is on the mark.
What is lost in western culture is the 'working' with Bonsai...getting your hands dirty, enjoying the art, breaking a nail, looking at something in a 10 gallon nursery pot or in the ground--seeing the tree then working it to what you have in mind. Not the instant gratification and just it sitting there so your friends can say 'Oh, that's a cute tree, where did you buy it?'
The oldest form of what you want out of a bottle is 'petting a tree'...no it's not some kinky thing. Spend some time with your trees and literally 'pet' the foliage like you would pet a cat or dog...ya really!!!
You run your hand over the foliage in the direction in which it grows, smoothly and gently, every time you are around the tree.
Since the natural reaction is adversion to touch guess what happens...yep. You will still have to prune but the internodal spacing will be much closer and the foliage much more dense. Try it sometime.
Oh...it won't happen overnight...takes a little while.
Tom had to look for a old post to e mail you. long time since i talked to you ,hope every thing is going good for you.i have seen your post on bonsai talk nice trees!!! wanted to know if you know any thing about IBC forum?? are they comming back i miss that forum good info and pics.. take care hope to hear from you soon..john

WATCH: Kansas Teen Suspended for Carrying Purse
BY Sunnivie Brydum
November 08 2013 2:18 PM ET
Skylar Davis says he's been carrying his colorful Vera Bradley purse to Anderson County Senior-Junior High School in Garnett, Kan., since August. But on Wednesday, the 13-year-old says administrators demanded he remove the bag — and when he refused, he was suspended.
"It expresses myself and I think everyone else can wear it, so I wear it as well," Skyler told Kansas City television station KCTV Wednesday.
After Davis refused to remove his purse, which he wears slung across his body, and was subsequently issued a one-day suspension, administrators called Davis's mother, who says she was upset by the news, since female students are regularly allowed to carry their purses into class.
"I was a little furious," Leslie Willis told KCTV. "And I called the school [and spoke to the principal] to reverify the story, and yeah, he refused to take off his Vera Bradley bag, nothing more to it."
Anderson County School District superintendent Don Blome told KCTV that Davis's gender wasn't the issue, but rather that the school has a rule stipulating students may not have personal bags in classrooms.
"We strive to make sure we treat every kid alike and there are classroom rules we expect kids to follow," Blome told KCTV Thursday. "They can bring [bags and purses] to school. There's no policy against that. But the classroom rules are that they can't bring it to the classroom."
But Willis says there's nothing in the school's policy guidebook handed out to parents that even addresses purses or bags. KCTV says school officials told the the station that's because it's a "rule," not a "policy."
Davis returned to school today, but he and his mother say he's still planning to wear his purse, even if it gets him sent home again.

Are Jandy Underwater Lights Safe?
In 2006, a PB installed a pool with a Jandy Power Center RS controller and various Jandy products in my back yard. Two years ago, I had to replace the bulb and gasket of the underwater light, because of water intrusion. Just yesterday, I tried to switch on the pool lights and noticed that neither spa nor pool lights lit up. Today I found the reason: The underwater light in the pool broke again due to water leakage and the GFI responded (thankfully) disconnecting all pool lights. Now I am wondering how safe I would be in the pool if the GFI breaker was of equally dubious quality as the pool light. As an electrical engineer I am willing to pull the light complete with gasket and wires and hand it to my colleagues at UL for close examination. Is this a frequent occurence with underwater lights?
The seal seems to be the problem. Make sure when you replace the seal that you are getting a orginal part for replacement and that there is no damage or corrosion on the sealing surfaces. It may be that you need replace the whole fixture. Most of the time this type of failure comes from improper water balance like a low PH. Are you having the same problem with the spa lights?

Cute, but rarely wear them
Although I purchased this cute pair to go with the wonderful Bubble Gum Necklace, these "matching" Bubble Gum earrings are "okay" and "plain" but nothing special, so I hardly ever wear them. Instead, I usually end up wearing gold earrings with the Bubble Gum necklace - maybe because they're a more youthful style (hence "Bubble Gum"), and not as appropriate for a mature woman over 40.

Are these butterfly eggs on a milkweed?
Hi Everyone. This is my first time posting in this forum. I hope you can help. I pulled a milkweed plant out of my garden just now-it is the only one I had. As soon as I did it I remembered that butterflies lay eggs on milkweed, and my heart sank.
I have been growing my garden to attract butterflies, but did not realize I may actually provide egg sites, too.
Will the eggs survive if the plant dies? I do not know my butterflies well, but we had a LOT of them (and bumblebees) this year. Here's hoping I did not just cause some dreadful harm to the lifecycle.
The plant was lying on the ground, so I believe the black spots are dirt. Nothing seems to move when I gently poke it, so I don't think they are aphids either. It's just that there are so MANY.
I am in eastern Massachusetts (if that matters/helps).
Thanks for any help you can provide.
It's probably all dirt, but some of those yellowish grains might be monarch eggs ready to hatch.
I'm linking you to a site with a picture of a monarch egg. They're very small, so you may have to get out your magnifying glass to see if any have the typical vertical lines that monarch eggs have.
Hopefully, congratulations!
Here is a link that might be useful: Monarch Life Cycle
Beatrice, I live in eastern Mass. too and in my area (metro west Boston) the Monarchs have LONG stopped laying eggs. The nights start getting too cold and they don't have enough time to complete their growth cycle. The last eggs I collected were probably laid Sept 1st or 2nd.
The Monarch breeding season is longer along the coast because nights are warmer than inland, so if you are in the warmest section of eastern Mass then maybe there might be a stray egg? But your dots don't look like eggs to me.
I am curious why did you pull your one milkweed plant?
I tried looking, but my magnifying glass is not strong enough to distinguish stripes. I put the plant back outside in case I am lucky and they are eggs, but the fact that there are so many makes me wonder. I looked up more images of eggs, and none of them has more than a few at a time.
Terrene, my nights have been in the 50's, and this week started getting into the 40's on occasion. I was never taught to think milkweed is anything but a weed, and was on autopilot when I pulled it. I have been looking things up lately, though, which is why I said my heart sank as soon as I pulled it and realized I may not have just been "weeding". You can bet I will know better next time! I just don't normally get milkweed plants in my yard, either. There are plenty of them in the neighborhood, though.
I better learn my caterpillars soon, otherwise I may not know what I am looking at if they come out.
Thank you both for responding and helping me!
Hi folks. I figured I'd post a quick follow up to my earlier post. I was not able to track the eggs or whatever they were (too busy) but unless there are some other black and orange butterflies that I am not aware of, I have seen four monarchs this past week, the last one just a few minutes ago.
So my milkweed plant may have indeed had eggs! I am amazed, but happy. :)
There is a wonderful book that helps identify eggs and caterpillars. It is geared towards kids, but that just makes it an easy read. I love it for the pictures it provides. It is called The Life Cycles of Butterflies, by Judy Burris and Wayne Richards. I think I saw it was available on Amazon a while back.
Hi Beatrice, there's no way you would have monarch eggs in Massachusetts in October. I agree they were probably aphids.
As for your butterflies, could they have been painted ladies?
coolbutterfly-the wings on the ones that were very close in the last week had distinct black lines, not black whirls and swirls. One was sitting on a plant for about a minute, so I did get a good look, one flew in front of my face for about 30 seconds while I was gardening (also a very good look), one went by in a fairly straight line, one was only close enough to see the colors (not so good look). But I don't know enough about butterflies to say definitively that they were or were not monarchs. I am just hopeful
In any case, butterflies in my garden are awesome. Especially these Halloween colored ones in October. :)
Bob, those are great macro shots of the eggs.
Yes it is unlikely that eggs are being laid in Mass. in October, but common for migrants to still be passing through. I haven't seen a Monarch for over 2 weeks, since we had a hard frost, but people along the coast see them longer because they have milder low temperatures and they probably have not yet had a frost.
Beatrice, hopefully your milkweed will pop up again next year from the root system! My experience with Asclepias syriaca - common milkweed is, that it grows where it wants to, so I sort of try to accommodate in the garden beds, and make it look like it belongs! It's not the best behaved garden plant, but it works well to attract the female Monarchs.

42 year old woman | Colleyville, TX, USA | Seeking men 38-53 within 50 miles of Grapevine, TX
Talk to me Goose
Well, back on Match after a brief hiatus. I tried to meet people the old-fashioned way (through friends, etc ….) and that did not work out very well. I am looking for someone that is genuine, drama-free and overall just a good guy. I am looking for someone that is content in the "now" and knows who they are. I am so fortunate to have a career that I love. I am a postitive-it's all about the attitude-kind of girl. What you put out is exactly what you will get back. I have great friends and an amazing family. I am from the DFW area and have lived here all my life. I am a huge music buff. I love concerts and sitting on patios listening to live music. I enjoy playing golf, but I am not good. I also play coed softball once a week. I workout almost everyday, but I am not a gym rat. I do yoga almost everyday - gotta have it. Got to maintain! I know I said I am 5'2", but that is a lie. I am only 5' 1 and 1/2". I think people overuse emoticons and :)'s. I am no looking for a pen pal and I don't want to get "catfished". Best of luck to you all ....
Book club , Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Cooking , Dining out , Music and concerts , Volunteering
Golf, Other types of exercise, Running, Soccer, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Yoga
I exercise 5 or more times per week.
I have Dogs
I have a 14 year old lab, he is my faithful compadre. Really not a cat lover .....
Middle of the Road
Sadly, I don't have any specific hot spots. I tend to stay in my bubble, but we are moving up in the world! We now have a Gingerman in the area. You can't beat Joe T's patio.
I am addicted to Smart Water and green tea
I am always in the middle of a "DIY" project at my home. I am an amateur DIY'er, but it's fun. I rehab old furniture and like to repurpose salvaged items. I love to read.I will read pretty much anything, with the exception of romance novels.

Double Feature: Invasion of the Giant Mugs and The Sink- Snatcher!August 20th 2007 7:27 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
Oh! The humans finally got something for themselves that I approve of! It's GIANT mugs!!! They're so big that I can finally (and you know I've been trying ever since that growth spurt) fit my head entirely inside them! So I've been checking Mom's mug for goodies. Last night I found fresh water in there! That was encouraging. But this morning I ran up, peaked in and found that yucky coffee stuff. Bleck! I agree with the Captain, that is just a cruel thing for Mom to do to milk (stick it in the coffee). It's like I'm a dinky guy again! I can test out whatever they're drinking! Whoo hooo!
Potatoes Now Included!August 16th 2007 6:46 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
My best friend Chrissy noticed that my beloved veggie of happiness, aka PO-TAH-TOES, were sadly and tragically absent from my bio! Oh, no!! How did this happen?! Well, my bio was written when I was like 3 months old and really spent most of my time just worshiping my Captain Morgan hero and well... chasing my own tail... NOW, 7 months later! I have many many talents and super habits!!! I don't just worship Captain Morgan and chase my tail, now I worship Captain Morgan, chase my tail, AND keep potatoes as pets!!!... Seriously, though. I NEEDED an update! So happy reading buds and fans!

Felt Kitten vs. SPARKMAN!August 10th 2007 7:34 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
I tried playing with that new kitten that showed up, and you know it's tail is just weak! I went to give it a playful nibble and bit it clean off. It tasted like Captain Morgan or Moose fur, so I purred and started chewing on it like bubble gum. Mom, the usual fun breaker, dove down my mouth with her fingers to pull globs of fur kitten tail out. Then she did something weird, she brushed us all with the zoom groom and made it a new tail!
My Feet...August 8th 2007 7:40 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
My feet take so much licking. I think I clean my feet more than any other part of my body. In fact, I don't know how the heck anyone keeps their feet clean! I mean, is THAT why the humans wear shoes? And why don't they lick their shoes? Or at least their feet? And back to my own feet... How do they get so dirty? I wish my feet were grey like Moosie's. Then maybe the dirt wouldn't show! But come to think of it he too spends a long time licking. Captain seems to get away with mostly just bathing his white parts. Which does include his feet, and I must say they're just glowing with cleanliness... But it really is a chore to lick between all those toes. Glad I'm not a polydactyl! or pterodactyl! Oh, I bet dinosaurs had stinky, dirty feet. Like that t-rex guy who screams and scares me in that movie. Yikes! Oh, and then there's those claws you have to maintain! The front ones are easy, just scratch the bed or chair or Mom's head. But those back ones?! I gotta bite off everyone?! Are you kidding me?! This is just stupid. It takes way too much effort to have clean, nice feet and claws...
Trials and Tribulations of a Kitten Brain.August 7th 2007 8:30 am

It is hard being a kitten. Life is just still so confusing! I'm almost a year old, when will I start understanding the world and conquering stuff like the Captain?! I guess not today in any case...

NEW POTATO BABIES!!!July 31st 2007 8:31 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
TWO new potato babies!!! I am IN HEAVEN! Dad was getting potatoes ready for grilling and was standing with the sack of earthy goodness, making faces at the squishy/old ones. So I just sat there and drooled, and whined at him. Mom peaked around the corner and deemed the potatoes worthy of kitten consumption... and then they gave me TWO POTATOES!!!! Now I may be a ninja and a goat in every other aspect of life, but as a potato parent I am full devotion. I have been bathing and carrying around my little baby potatoes. I even nibbled on them a little... just love bites... Oh! The joys of being a potato Dad!
Attack of the BITING FIRE ANTS FROM HELL!!!July 27th 2007 7:55 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
Our favorite spot to lounge outside is the cement walkway leading out from the house to that forbidden cement walkway that the dogs walk past on. And just when Mom thought it was safe to put us all out on our leashes, a terrible, evil curse befell our lounging rest: ANTS! Not those cute little brown ones I lick up and purr at, but these larger reddish ants with fat aphids, lightning fast teeny legs, and firey demon breath! Yes, they are BITING FIRE ANTS FROM HELL!!! And they are swarming like a horrible river of evil over the sidewalk.

The book "Gentleman's Agreement," by Laura Z. Hobson, appeared in 1947, followed by the film of the same name starring Gregory Peck (and winning three Oscars).
The plot is simple: a journalist assigned to write about anti-Semitism in the post-war United States decides to pose as a Jew and see what happens. He encounters a good deal of social anti-Semitism: country clubs, "restricted" neighborhoods, jobs that somehow are off-limits. He is not beaten or assaulted, nor does he face physical danger. Instead he faces quiet, unwritten "Gentleman's Agreements" that exclude Jews. Read more »
In 2001 to 2003, after the 9/11 attacks, more and more analysts predicted the demise of the House of al-Saud. I recall classified intelligence analyses saying this, and a good example of the journalism of the time is "The Fall of the House of Saud" by Robert Baer (a former intelligence officer) in The Atlantic. The last line of that piece was "sometime soon, one way or another, the House of Saud is coming down." Read more »
Americans who complain about the post office, or more seriously the police, or (God forbid) whoever happens to be president do not expect to be jailed, but Bahrainis do.
This week a leader of the (peaceful) opposition and founder of the Bahrain Center for Human Rights, Nabeel Rajab, was sentenced to six months for the crime of "insulting a public institution." His criminal act was publishing a tweet last September that said, in full, this: Read more »
Rafah is a town in Egypt, on the border of Gaza, that will soon cease to exist. The government of Egypt is destroying it, leaving thousands of Egyptians homeless, in an effort to create a buffer zone along the border.Read more »
Today in Buenos Aires, Alberto Nisman was found dead.
Who was he and why does it matter?
Nisman was the official charged with investigating the 1994 bombing of the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, which killed 85 people. It has long seemed that Iran and Hezbollah were the responsible parties, and that senior Argentine officials were covering this up and preventing justice from being done. Nisman was a fearless, honest official who probed for the truth. Read more »
After six years in office, President Obama is still unable to accept criticism or dissent from his policies, and labels policy differences as essentially corrupt.
Consider this report in The New York Times: Read more »
The massive march today in France is a wonderful sight in many ways, and represents France's rejection of efforts to crush freedom of expression and especially to ban criticism of Islam.
But in addition to the ubiquitous "Je Suis Charlie" slogans it would have been nice to see more "Je Suis Juif" signs as well. After all, the journalists of Charlie Hebdo knew exactly what risks they were running. Their offices had already been bombed, and the constant presence of two police guards (both murdered by the terrorists last week) was a powerful reminder of the dangers. The French Jews who were murdered were just shoppers, preparing for the Sabbath. The journalists were killed for their deliberate actions–challenging and criticizing Islamic beliefs. The Jews were killed for being Jews. Read more »
There are more Cuban political prisoners today than on the day President Obama announced his deal with the Castro brothers, December 17.
Part of that deal was supposed to see 53 Cuban political prisoners released, but now it's three weeks later and they have not been released. Nor have they even been identified. As the Washington Post put it in a headline, "Mystery surrounds 53 Cuban political prisoners supposed to be set free." Instead of releasing them, the Cuban regime has in fact arrested more dissidents, two weeks after the Obama speech and just before New Year's. Read more »

Tom Hespos | December 22, 1998 | Comments
Let's talk about the concept of our "email intimacy"...and use it to show how e-mail marketing can screw up your online brand. Needless to say, this will likely generate megabytes of hate mail from those who have had success with e-mail marketing, but Tom is willing to put up with it.
Boy did Nick Usborne hit the nail on the head last week! Nick's article, Killing the Killer App illustrated the concept of the internet user's relationship with his or her mailbox really well. I had a major crisis a couple of weeks back in trying to decide whether to remain on the WWWAC list. This crisis came about for the same reasons Nick described in his article. (Ultimately I unsubscribed but that's another story for another time.)
This week, I'd like to take Nick's concept of the "intimacy we have with our mail" and use it to show how email marketing can screw up your online brand. Needless to say, this will likely generate megabytes of hate mail from those who have had success with email marketing, but I'm willing to put up with it.
Think, if you will, about the last time you got a piece of junk mail in your 'analog' mailbox. If you're like some folks, you just throw it away. However, people can get agitated by catalog companies and other direct mailers if the volume of junk mail gets out of hand.
Last year, I called a stock broker and gave him an earful after receiving eight separate manila envelopes from him in my mailbox at work. I was tired of receiving them. They really bugged me - to the point where I would never in a million, kajillion years ever consider using this guy as my broker.
Why did it bug me so much? After some reflection I realized that there were a few reasons -- all of them emotional.
There were probably other reasons for my reaction to this barrage of junk mail. But let's get to the point. After receiving this junk, I was really tempted to walk down to this guy's office and cram his manila envelopes down his throat. Sideways.
Let's port this concept over to the internet. Many of the marketers I speak to are considering email marketing, but they rarely consider that their target might have a negative response to their message. They typically give arguments like the ones listed below:
Maybe there are too many players in the email marketing game. The internet is still growing rapidly and many of us are already inundated with hundreds of commercial emails. Can you imagine what will happen as the internet continues to grow?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Animals are animals, new ads say
Addresses different perspectives on pets, feed creatures
An ad campaign starting in Winnipeg this week asks why some animals are considered family and others supper.
"It's a message the public is ready to hear now," said Twyla Francois with Mercy for Animals Canada. The non-profit organization trying to prevent cruelty to farmed animals launched a transit-ad campaign on buses in major Canadian cities including Winnipeg.
One ad shows a puppy beside a piglet with the caption "Why love one but eat the other?" In another ad, an adorable kitten is next to a fluffy chick. A friendly Lab is paired with a cute little cow. Next to the heartwarming critter images are horrific photos of conditions on factory farms, with animals crammed by the thousands into filthy, windowless sheds, battery cages, gestation crates and other confinement systems.
The campaign is a bid to get people to make the connection between pets and their meat.
"People are considering domestic animals in a way they never have before," said Francois. They treat their pets as children and connect more closely with animals in general, she said.
"They do understand pigs, cows and chickens are just as self-aware as dogs and cats." She cited Cambridge University's "declaration of consciousness" that said animals are as conscious and aware as humans. Mercy for Animals Canada developed the chooseveg.ca website with tips on how to move toward making "more humane" food choices, said Francois, who has made pets of food animals who avoided slaughter.
A few years back, a semi flipped over and a load of hogs ended up next to the highway.
"I rescued a pig named Wilbur off the side of the road after a trailer crash," she said. "He was very cool and incredibly smart." She took Wilbur to her acreage near Winnipeg.
"He was friendly and engaging. We had two horses and a dog and he'd run with them," Francois fondly recalled. "He won the hearts of everyone who met him."
The 600-pound porker was adopted by people with a farm and another pig who's become Wilbur's best friend. "They're going to keep him for life."
She's also rescued chickens and turkeys with emotions and cognitive ability above cats, dogs and some primates, she said. When one of the chickens died, the other chicken mourned her loss. "She'd stand at the top of the stairs and wait for her companion to return," she said.
"The turkeys were really my favourite," Francois said. "They're incredibly sensitive."
The ad campaign isn't trying to stamp out factory farms but get them to switch to something more sustainable than animals, she said.
"The UN says raising animals for food is contributing more to global greenhouse gases than all the world's trucks and cars combined."
There are proven health benefits to people and the planet in eating less meat, said Francois.
The spokesman for Manitoba's pig producers said consumers will choose what to eat.
"We live in a democracy," said Andrew Dickson, general manager of the Manitoba Pork Council. "People can make lifestyle choices about what they want to eat."
If they want to go vegan, they should check with their doctor first, he said. "As human beings, we're omnivores," with diets that include grains, vegetables and meat.

is only about seven years old. That is a fact, however,
for all the great strides forward, all the large
corporations, all the great business enterprises, are
less than ten years old, while the city has more than
doubled her population in seven years.
Houston is today a city of skyscrapers and large "
buildings, and their number is being added to
monthly. There are today a number of new ones
going up and nearly every principal street in the
city is the scene of building activity. There are hotels
completed and being constructed; office buildings,
business buildings, bank buildings, to say nothing
of the hundreds of residences being constructed.
Houston stands in a class of its own when it comes
to apartment houses, for there are more and finer
ones here than in any other Texas city. They are
nearly all strictly up to date and several of them
are luxurious and costly affairs.
Just what Houston is doing today and how it is
being done is well shown in the reports made by the
mayor and the commissioners and heads of departments
at the close of the fiscal year, February 29,
1912. Mayor Rice says:
Gentlemen: According to the law, I submit the
annual report of the various departments and the
budget for the ensuing year.
You will notice that the appropriations recommended
and the budget called for is some $200,000
in excess of last year. One-half alone being increase
of the interest and sinking funds on bonds
and additional school appropriation

Two of 10 world's greatest rivers – the Ob' and the Yenisei – spring here. One of the symbols of the region – the Belukha Mountain (4509 m) – is the highest peak in Siberia.
Amazing big cat – the snow leopard – and the biggest wild sheep – argali – live in the mountains of Altai and Sayan.
The Altai-Sayan region is a crossroad of the most ancient human cultures. This region includes numerous historical objects and archeological sites and is considered to be one of the cradles of our civilization.
Six nature territories of the region are the UNESCO World Culture and Nature Heritages objects. The Altai-Sayan Ecoregion is one of the key Global 200 Ecoregions foreground for saving the biodiversity.
But the resource development of the Altai-Sayan (industrial and infrastructure projects, uncontrolled tourism, poaching, extensive agriculture etc.) and the global climate changes are the reasons for direct and sideway threats to biological and landscape diversity of the region. The protection of this unique nature place is one of the priorities for WWF.
The WWF experts have been developing an Ecoregion Action Plan for saving the Altai-Sayan nature and minimize key threats.
The key threats for the Altai-Sayan biodiversity include poaching, illegal wildlife trade, illegal logging, mining, infrastructure projects effects.
The key conservation targets in the Ecoregion Action Plan for the Altai-Sayan such as follows:
The WWF supporters play important role in our work – they help us to find money for financing some conservation actions and projects. For example, the visit-center "Panda-yurt" in the Ubsunurskaya Kotlovina (Ubsunur Basin) State Nature Reserve (Tuva Republic) was build due to the donation of one WWF supporter. Besides, with the help of our supporters we conduct opinion polls, clean territory of nature parks. Once we massed 127 sacks of garbage during two days of work in the Stolby State Nature Reserve!

What to put on walls?
stephaniedartFebruary 19, 2013
What should I put on walls?
Carolyn Albert-Kincl, ASID
I would put a shutter on the window and nothing on the walls by the window. If you are speaking of the larger walls flanking the window, I would need to see photos of them to give you an informed comment. However, a stairway in a home is frequently a good place to hang family pictures.

Men's Basketball Surges Past Presbyterian
Four members of the Herd scored in double figures, with freshman forward Ryan Taylor (Indianapolis, Ind.) leading the offensive charge with 18 points on 8-of-13 shooting to go along with 12 rebounds as he recorded his fourth career double-double. Junior forward Shawn Smith (Sacramento, Calif.) added 16, while sophomore forward TyQuane Goard (Charleston, W.Va.) and freshman guard Kareem Canty (Harlem, N.Y.) each recorded 11 points in starting roles.
Making his sixth-straight start and 10th of the season, sophomore guard DeVince Boykins (Forest City, N.C.) got off to a hot start against the Blue Hose as he hit two quick shots from beyond the arc, putting Marshall up 10-7 with 15:21 to play in the first half.
The game became a back and forth battle as both sides exchanged buckets with seven lead changes having occurred in the first nine minutes of play.
Up 29-28 at halftime, the Herd found itself in a game that was being played in the paint as 42 of the 57 first-half points scored came in the paint. Canty, Taylor and Boykins each had six points through the first half as seven Marshall players recorded a basket for an even scoring distribution in the first 20 minutes.
Marshall worked to pull away from Presbyterian in the second half and on back-to-back put back dunks from sophomore guard Chris Thomas (Denver) and Smith, the Henderson Center crowd was awoken as the Herd led 46-38 with 13:48 remaining in the contest.
Freshman sharp shooter Austin Loop (South Webster, Ohio) capped off an 18-5 run for Marshall as he converted on a three-point basket to put his squad up 60-43.
With the game nearly put away, Taylor started to take over as he scored 10 straight points for the Herd, putting them up 72-47 with 2:37 left. Once the clock ran out, Marshall collected a 77-49 win to head into C-USA play on a winning note.
Canty had a shaky start as he committed five turnovers in his first 11 minutes on the floor, but the C-USA Freshman of the Year hopeful settled down and did not commit another for his final 27 minutes on the floor. As a team, Marshall committed just two second half turnovers after having recorded nine in the first half.
The Herd was able to use its persistence to record 31 second chance points, to six from the Blue Hose as the Herd held a 22-2 advantage in that category in the second half. Marshall also made itself at home on the glass as it outrebounded Presbyterian 50-32.
The Herd will now head to Texas for a two-game trip to open C-USA play against UTSA (Jan. 9) and UTEP (Jan. 11).
In-game Twitter updates @HerdMBB, results and a recap from the night's action will be available at HerdZone.com.

Plan B at OpenMoko: Remaining Developers Let Go
In a message to the community, OpenMoko CEO Sean Moss-Pultz explained how things with the open source mobile phone are to go from this point on.
As befits most good businessmen, Moss-Pultz congratulated all for their past good work and didn't spare any praise:
"We've always said that the talent and creativity of those outside the company is superior to that inside the company... We've opened up more than any other phone, from any other company, in the history of this industry. Every time we chose openness over internal control, we have been rewarded."
Consequently OpenMoko will now (finally) deed the entire Freerunner hardware specification as far as possible to the community. In fact, all of openmoko.org, including the website, wiki, branding and trademarks, and all remaining designs will be handed over. Moss-Pultz's company will continue to act as sponsor for outside development and "will start another effort on an altogether different type of device."
Even if community members and former OpenMoko-ers have already begun building a mobile phone based on the new specification and free hardware components from OpenMoko, Moss-Pultz's announcement indicates the final bowing out of the company in its own development of the device. Meanwhile "plenty" of Freerunner A7s are still in stock for a good price.

I was so happy when Lisa and her family booked my house for the summer. They sounded very trustworthy from the beginning, and they absolutely were! Communication went smoothly, there were no unneccessary emails or questions: everything was just clear from the start. When they arrived and I showed them the house, they were very kind and polite, and I immediately felt confident about their stay.
Lisa and her husband and their two lovely daughters stayed in my house for 1 week and they left the house spotless: really without a trace, like they hadn't even been there, except for a small friendly note thanking me for my hospitality. They even left left some money for the use of my bicycle ... just too kind!
I can only recommend Lisa and her family. They were the perfect guests!
Lisa, her husband and 2 children rented our apartment in La Baule. We were more than happy to host them. They left our apartment very clean (despite the fact that cleaning was included) and fully complied with the rules we set (basically behave as if it was you apartment). Lisa was highly responsive by mail (we are not on site) and communication was easy and friendly. They arrived precisely on the arrival time they gave us. This was perfect. I would be more than happy to host Lisa and her family again.
It was a pleasure to host Lisa and her daughter. She was very communicative and a very nice guest.

Big Business Comes Out in Support of Marriage Equality in Washington State
January 19, 2012 by Tony Wagner, Western Regional Field Director
Today in Washington State, Microsoft, Group Health, Nike, Vulcan, Concur and Real Networks joined a growing list of businesses in the Northwest to endorse marriage equality and urge the Washington State legislature to pass the legislation this year.
HRC and Washington United for Marriage, a broad statewide coalition of organizations, congregations, unions and business associations that work to obtain civil marriage for lesbian and gay couples in Washington State in 2012, cheered the announcement. These companies join more than 70 businesses that signed onto the Washington United for Marriage Business Coalition. The bills, SB6239 and HB2516 will be heard in senate and house committees on Monday, January 23.
Here is the statement from Washington United's campaign manager, Zach Silk:
Washington United commends and thanks Microsoft, Group Health, Nike, Vulcan, Concur and Real Networks for supporting loving and committed lesbian and gay couples in the state by making their support for marriage equality known. Marriage equality would put Washington businesses in the strongest, most competitive position to attract, recruit and retain the best and brightest employees -- and to keep high-caliber talent in the state. With hearings on the bills scheduled for this coming Monday, the momentum continues to grow in support of bestowing equal dignity and respect on all Washington families.
And here's a portion of what Brad Smith, Microsoft's General Counsel & Executive Vice President, Legal & Corporate Affairs, had to say:
We believe that passing this bill would be good for our business and good for the state's economy. I wanted to take a few moments to explain why.
At Microsoft, we pride ourselves on our products and services, our brand, and our global reach. But unquestionably, our employees are our greatest asset.
To be successful, it's critical that we have a workforce that is as diverse as our customers. Every day, the national and global economies are becoming more diverse. The lifeblood of a business is its ability to understand and connect with its customers. We're no exception. Now more than ever, the most effective workforce is a diverse workforce.

I'm working on making a library. Eventually I will use CMake but right now I'm just using MSVC.
First my directory structure (as an example) will be as follows:
The way I used to include blah in bloop was by doing:
#include "../blah.h"
I looked at many other libraries and they did not do this, they instead did:
#include "LibRoot/blah.h"
So I did this and now MSVC cannot find this include file. How come it works on another MSVC based lib, but mine does not? Is there a certain flag that I must set or something?
