Another Obama fiasco
This morning (Oct. 16) battery builder, A123 Systems, announced it was filing for bankruptcy.
This company was another of Obama's "pets," having received $249 million in federal grants.
In 2010 Obama hailed A123, "with plans to create 2,000 new jobs in Michigan. The company failed miserably, having lost nearly $900 million in recent years.

(Originally posted on Daily Kos.)
The "Prison Population and Budget Reduction Package" proposed by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) is like a drunk person walking home from a bar — it knows where it wants to go but oftentimes you find it stumbling off the sidewalk or turning down the wrong street.Since we believe budget cutting is no small feat and should be taken very seriously, especially in the wake of the prison riots in Chino and public safety needs, we've decided to pour the CDCR a strong cup of coffee and see if we can't point the plan in a better direction.
The People's Budget Fix, as we've named it, responds to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's $1.2 billion in unallocated cuts to the corrections budget with a series of smart reforms to save the state billions of dollars, improve public safety, and advance long-needed adjustments in California's Corrections system. Here's an outline of some of the ways the CDCR's budget proposal goes wrong and how we can do better.
Step 1: Reserve Prison for Serious Offenses
Step 2: Focus Resources on Recidivism-Reduction
Step 3: Comprehensive Criminal Justice Reform
The People's Budget Fix is indeed a sobering cup of coffee, opening our eyes to what smart and sensible criminal justice reforms can do to help save our state more money, improve public safety, and begin reforming our ailing prison system. But we can't stop there.
The People's Budget Fix also calls upon the governor and the California legislature to go beyond the immediate fixes identified above and strive for lasting budget reforms. We must delve deeper into the sobering realities of our criminal justices system and its failures. We need a balanced sentencing commission to take the politics out of the public safety debate and put the people back in. And we need to address two costly and ineffective areas of our criminal justice system: the death penalty and California's Three Strikes law. Both of these policies cost that state billions of dollars in prison spending and court costs with no demonstrable returns for public safety. It is time for California to limit Three Strikes to violent offenses and replace the death penalty with effective alternatives that promote public safety.
On August 18, when the governor and the legislature return to Sacramento to begin discussions of the Corrections' budget, we plan to be there to rally for the People's Budget Fix and to meet with Legislatures to discuss our proposals.We hope our proposals help our political leaders see straight and get us all home safely.
The People's Budget Fix is supported by Drug Policy Alliance, the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, Families Amend California's Three Strikes, and the ACLU California affiliates.

I have a mix of beans here, but threw out the package long ago. Do I soak these, or just throw them in the soup and simmer a long time?
Sam is a trusted home cook.
Usually you bring it to a boil, reduce to simmer and cover until done.
I like to soak mine for at least 2-3 hours or alternatively, use a crockpot or slow cooker. It cooks beautifully in a slow cooker. Add a little finely chopped onion, seasonings (if using any) and I like to use a little bit of crushed tomato or tomato paste. Mix, cover and let it simmer away slowly!

Following every meeting of the National Advisory Council on Aging, we set about the task of fundi
The deadline is fast approaching for the 2015 Butler-Williams Scholars Program, NIA's premier aging research training program. Apply by March 27, 2015, and encourage your contacts and friends to do the same.
This is an extremely difficult time in aging research. Dr. Richard J. Hodes, NIA director, describes some of the challenges that lie ahead, as well as what the next fiscal year will bring. "While the scientific and fiscal challenges are very real, it is still an exciting time to be in aging and Alzheimer's research," writes Dr. Hodes.
Dallas Anderson, Program Administrator in the Division of Neuroscience, describes common pitfalls to avoid when developing research plans for grant applications. The most common recommendation that he makes is to simplify the research plan.
The Advisory Council of the National Institute on Aging meets on January 28. Watch online from 8:00 AM to about 1:15 PM EST.
"NIA funding announcements come with an expiration date," writes Dr. John Haaga in a new blog post. Dr. Haaga, deputy director of the NIA Division of Behavioral and Social Research, explains what happens when a Program Announcement expires, covering questions such as:
Dr. H. David Chae is dedicating his career to investigating social and psychological determinants of health disparities for racial minority populations. His research examines leukocyte telomere length, a novel marker of cumulative life stress and systemic aging at the physiologic level.

AFRICA/DR CONGO - The M23 surrenders but first bombards civilians, accuse local sources
Kinshasa (Agenzia Fides) - On November 4, dozens of civilians were killed in the territory of Rutshuru in North Kivu (eastern Democratic Republic of Congo) due to artillery bombardments of the M23, despite the fact that the day before the rebel group had declared a unilateral ceasefire. This was referred in a note sent to Fides Agency by the Provincial Coordination of Civil Society of North Kivu .
"Until 11.30 pm local time on November 4", - reads the note - our facility received warnings from the population regarding several shells shot on numerous locations, especially on Bunagana and Chengero. If the provisional toll was 12 victims and twenty wounded, with bombs dropped during the night, the toll will be higher". According to the note "seen the use of the M23 of long-range weapons", it is likely that also some Ugandan areas of the Kisoro district were affected, close to Bunagana ,
"Several homes were damaged by shots fired by the M23 against civilians. It is a pure war crime".
The M23 announced on November 5 to "put an end to the rebellion" and will continue its struggle through peaceful means. The advance of the Congolese army, backed by the Blue Helmets of MONUSCO, has inflicted heavy losses to the armed group, as reported by a further note sent to Fides stating that at least 5 officers of the M23 were killed in Mbuzi alone.

MSG Network creates a stir by not bringing Billy Jaffe back for Islanders TV broadcasts
Jul 23, 2010, 1:20 PM EDT
Leave it to the Islanders to get caught in a stir in the media. When it's not some rogue fan stirring up a hoax about a Rick DiPietro car accident, they're stuck in a mess having to deal with MSG Network not renewing the contract of television color commentator Billy Jaffe. Chris Botta from Islanders Point Blank shares the news and give his thoughts on Jaffe.
Despite the Islanders finishing 30th and 26th in the league the last two seasons, I never saw anything but 100% positive analysis from Jaffe. In fact, no one more optimistically and studiously told the story of the slow and steady recall better than him. If there was a dispute between MSG and Jaffe, I would think the Islanders would push to keep one of their biggest public advocates. In addition, he was a regular volunteer for the Islanders at draft parties and on segments for Islanders TV.
Speaking as a guy who has done some very amateur work in the radio booth as a color commentator, remaining positive when things are down in the dumps is, indeed, very difficult to do at times. Considering Jaffe has been the Isles color man for four years makes him worthy of an award for perseverance through dire times.
Jaffe has also done work for Versus and ESPN in the past and considering that Versus doesn't have their own army of broadcasters on staff (everyone in the booth for Versus has a "day job" with another team) perhaps having Jaffe on board to be the main color man for the network would make for a smooth move and one that's good for PR as well.
Then again, I'm not a broadcasting executive, so what do I know?
Chris Botta gets to the bottom of things fast and shares the info via Twitter:
Multiple sources confirm: MSG had contract done for Billy Jaffe, Islanders shot it down. Reason: not positive enough.
That makes things look a lot more ugly on the Islanders behalf. That said, we don't know what goes on behind the scenes, but this just doesn't look great for the Islanders for letting a guy go for not being enough of a "company man" for their liking.
- crusader - Aug 27, 2010 at 9:22 PM
Islanders first good move in the Wang era. jaffe was horrible to listen to, thought he knew everything about the game, loved to listen to himself talk. If this means Versus or anybody else won't use him now either, it's that much better. Butchie Goring will be great in that spot.

Jets sign veteran tight end Kellen Davis
NEW YORK (AP) The New York Jets have signed veteran tight end Kellen Davis, adding a big blocker to their offense.
The 6-foot-7, 265-pound Davis signed with the Giants last offseason, but was cut during the summer. He was signed by the Lions in October, released and then re-signed and played in six games, mostly as a blocker.
Davis was a fifth-round draft pick of Chicago in 2008 out of Michigan State. He played five seasons with the Bears, and has also spent time with Cleveland and Seattle.

The Man (1972)
Yesterday, President Barack Obama made history by being sworn in for his second historic term on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Day. In honor of our 44th President of the United States of America, check out our favorite Black presidents on the big screen.
When the president and speaker of the House are killed in a building collapse, and the vice president declines the office due to age and ill-health, Senate president pro tempore Douglas Dilman (James Earl Jones) suddenly becomes the first brother in the Oval Office. The events from that day to the next election, when he must decide if he will actually run, challenge his skills as a politician and leader. Would we vote for him? Absolutely.

Gallery: NASA-Patented Technology Purifies Vittori Lab's Greenery-Fille...
Even though trains are considered more eco-friendly than a pile of people driving their own cars, let's face it – they aren't exactly the freshest green places to hang out. So Vittori Lab and a handful of other designers got together and designed the AirTrain, which uses NASA-patented technology to improve air quality using certain plants that absorb carbon dioxide emissions and release oxygen. Check out a video of the green train after the jump.
Plants are natural carbon sponges, but the AirTrain's greenery works more efficiently than ordinary plants. Fed in part by sunlight coming through the train's transparent shell and watered by a clever rainwater harvesting system that "knows" when the plants need hydrating, these super plants also enhance the visual appeal of the train environment – both inside and out. The result of a working group collaboration, the AirTrain demonstrates that public transportation can feel as cozy as a lush backyard at the same time that it cuts down a population's carbon footprint.

Very outdated. Mattress was way too soft.
Breakfast and staff.
The hotel stunk like an ash tray and it's close to the railroad.
The place was clean but not sanitized properly. Do not recommend it for people with allergies.
We received a free upgrade to a suite and complimentary breakfast.
The hotel staff did their best to fix the problems. We could tell that the hotel was trying to improve their image, but there were still some glaring errors.
The rooms we were given twice did not have functioning smoke detectors. The last room we were given had stained sheets. The hotel overall had a dingy appearance.
The Lady that checked us in.
Hotel was great.
The staff was rude and seemed more interested in their personal agenda than helping a guest. They need training and supervision.
Very excellent place to stay.
Easy to find.
Very clean.
Staff was very friendly.
WiFi not very good on 3rd floor.
It was close to an event that I was involved in.
The hotel charged us $9 extra dollars. The guy said I don't care what they say. They can't do anything to me! If you don't like it, you can leave!! BTW, the owner kept his dog in a pool area, we couldn't believe it! Our room smelled:( Breakfast horrible!
It was clean and well maintained. Plenty of options for breakfast.

Lazy day in Parma
... ones, with some fairly complicated train trips. But Joy will get to see the birthplace of her favourite boyfriend. Milan is only about 30 miles away, and we really could not pass by the chance to pay our respects to the great man.
More of this tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. Somebody famous said that didn't they?

Barking up the wrong tree!

They prance, they drag their feet, they amble and loll, they patiently wait, they ask 'can we go now?', they can be an unhappy fella, they pee, they c**p..... They are a status symbol, a loved companion, a way of meeting people.....they are Parma's dogs!
Where else in the world ...
Up close and personal
Today we slept through the first alarm....well Joy turned it off and snuggled back down into the very comfy bed......so the net result was we started our tour of the galleries a little late. But it really didn't matter.
The Galleria Nazionale of Parma is in the Palazzo Pilotta - an expanse of building and grass with colonnades and trees about 5 minutes walk from our hotel. Of course the gallery is on the 2nd floor so there is an expanse of stairs to climb, even ...
Leonardo da Parma!
Today was the day to visit Parma's main art gallery, and, as it turned out, the day that Joy found herself nose to nose with a drawing painted by Leonardo da Vinci. She knew that it was in the gallery but thought it would be behind armoured security glass and so on. Oh no, she was quite literally nose to nose with a da Vinci - for the second time on this trip - so she was understandably on an artisitic high when she finally emerged from the gallery. ...
Movin' on up the line to Parma
Yep, moving on day, to Parma this time, so an early start, after an excellent dinner last night. Up at 6am so that we could breakfast, pay hotel bill, bring down luggage etc by 8.05 for the taxi that was booked to take us the short distance to the bus station for our 8.30 bus to Pesaro. Seemed daft really to take a taxi for what is essentially a ten minute walk....but this walk is a big hill down and with four suit cases would have been a ...

When to plant greenhouse tomatoes?
I have a single wall, clear poly-carb greenhouse. I have 3- 8 foot long X 16" deep X 18" wide soil boxes with heat tape in the bottoms. I have the soil up to 58 degrees in the boxes but it still gets down in the teens at night & the inside of the walls condensate & form ice. I can cover the soil boxes with clear plastic, keeping the 60 degree or so temperature around the plants thru the night. During the day I get 65 degrees inside & on sunny days I'm getting 75 deg. We now have about 14 hours of daylight & still increasing. I have thoroughly mixed the soil in the boxes, adding perlite with compost. I just watered the boxes today with hot water & plan to let the moisture even out for a couple of days. I can probably hold 60 degrees in the boxes if covered at night.
I know i'm getting "cabin fever" & want to get things growing.
Should I try a couple of plant & risk losing them or be more patient & wait 2 or more weeks?
I plan to uncover them during the day to let them breath & have a small fan running for inside air circulation. If they were to make it, they'd be "hardened off" to the greenhouse & transplant shock over with when growing season arrives. In Alaska tomatoes have to be grown in the greenhouse, well if you want lots of fruit anyway.
Started tomatoes from seed, 7 weeks old, re-potted in 4" pots 1 week ago. 4" tall plants now.
This would be the earliest I've ever planted the geenhouse by about 2 week, but the weather has been cooler this year. Still have snow on the ground.
Heating the greenhouse is out, cost & single wall 8 X 12 greenhouse would take more power than it's wired for. Plus $100 per pound makes tomatoes just a little too spendy.
This seems to be working for me. I had tomato sprouts out last night, greenhouse low -0.3C and they look fine.

I just put some water in my greenhouse. I realized my rain barrel wouldn't mind being used to hold water :) and I had other containers. I placed a layer of 4l ice cream pails under my flats, which should moderate temperature fluctuations. Altogether, I put about 450 litres of water in. US gallons ~120, imperial ~100. It sounds better in litres. Hopefully, this will be enough to keep the night time temperatures above freezing.

The water seems to be having an effect. Lows have been -1,-0.3C,2.3C. Outside temps were -8,-8,-3C. It seems the water is gradually getting warmer and that when the temp tries to go below freezing the heat capacity of the water holds the temperature steady. On the cold nights the green house temp went below freezing about 7AM and stayed there until the sun gets around to the greenhouse, 3-4 hours.
Planted 4 tomatoes in GH with snow still on the ground. Even plant have to be tougher in Alaska.
Tried 5 ways to post pictures, no go .
So much for the easy way. What's the hard way?
Plants looking good so far. Covering the boxes is working well. Cucumber seeds sprouted. Soil temp holding at 70 deg F. :)
Cost prohibitive when getting down in the teens at night still, wire size to gh would have to be larger to supply enough current to run enough heater to keep it above freezing at night.
Take allot of bubble plastic for a 8 X 12 gh to get the "R" value so it would be efficient enough.
I am able to cover the heated soil boxes & keep the plants above 50 deg at night now & when plants get larger if it's still getting cold at night i'll cover them with 5 gallon buckets (jbest's idea). by the time they out grow the buckets, it'll be warm enough during the short nights that not supplemental heat will be needed.
Thanks for the bubble plastic idea, I never though of that one. I can use it for other applications like a dome cover over the heated soil boxes.
Wall-o-waters are 18 tubes 18 inches high of water encircling a plant and can be positioned as a teepee to completely cover the plant in solar-heated water. Your ground heat would also contribute. I have this set-up in a small bed with heat wire underneath and the cucumbers are above the water tubes now. I have wood heat and I check the stove every 3-4 hours in the night and keep it 50-65. It is a 20 foot square wooden pyramid with poly battened on both sides and dirt banked up on the plastic around the bottom. I just built it in February on the frozen ground. Each wall-o-water holds about 3 gallons so if you had say 33 x 3 gallons, you would have a 100 gallon solar heat store. By the time your plants reach the top, it should be less cold at night.
When you plant will likely depend on many things. For what it is worth, we were harvesting tomatoes into December (in Zone 9 - foothills at 2400 feet elevation). In February, I dismantled the raised beds as I was moving them to an area nearer the greenhouse. At that time I took several volunteer plants (Sweet 100) which has sprouted - about 10 or so - and potted them in the greenhouse. I now have a few cherry tomatoes that are ripe - and have harvested some of those - and have many green ones on the plants. The plants are about 4 feet high in the greenhouse, and I have transplanted many more into the new raised beds - those are shorter as I pulled off lower branches and planted deep. I did not have to heat the gh except for 2-3 nights. I also planted kohrabi from seeds and we have been eating that for 2-3 weeks now. Lettuce and chard is also ready. My heirloom seeds are up - some still in the gh and some already in the raised beds, but they are only about 6" high. I have so many tomatoe plants that I will need to build another raised bed. I eventually want to see if I can get tomatoes year round - don't know if I will be able to do so but as it is we seem to have a fairly long season as we ended harvest in December and are getting more now in April - though only a few.

Hi All,
I've been brewing extract + specialty grain for ~10 batches, and I'm moving up to all grain. I'll be brewing a smaller beer for my first AG batch, but once I've got the process down, I want to make my favorite style, an IIPA. I've read a lot about malt choices for IPAs tonight, and I think I have a good grain bill, but I just want a sanity check.
My specific quetions are about the inclusions and quantities of Wheat Malt, Munich Malt, and Victory malt. I've read of each of them being used in IPAs before, but I want to make sure my numbers make sense. Here's the recipe:
Thanks for the advice!
Edit: Oh, and as for the predicted FG here, I think it's way off. I've brewed two similar beers (with DME, a little dextrose, and just crystal malts for specialty grains). Both times hopville thoght I'd finish around 1.020 but I ended up with FGs of 1.012 and 1.013 respectively. I'll mash this around 150F to get a nice fermentable wort too.
I've had Hopville give some really funked-up gravities, too.
In my limited experience with IPAs, I would tend to want to cut all the specialty malts in half and bump the base up accordingly. Most of what I've read seems to advocate a KISS approach. But do what you want, man. Do you have a specific reason for wanting all those grains in there, besides personal preference?
In what I've read concerning IPAs, base malts are usually 90-95% of the grainbill, with specialties making up the rest (Crystal, Vienna, Munich, etc.). On the other hand, if you're looking for a super complex beer, you could put them all in.
In the end, it's your preference. That's the fantastic thing about AG brewing: within certain limits, you can do whatever the heck you want.
In my past IIPAs with just DME and crystal I thought the malt profile was a little bland. I want to bump it up a bit, but still keep it in the background.
Maybe cut the munich completely, reduce the wheat to 1/2 lb, and up the 2-row to compensate? Or should I go the other way around, and lose the victory, and keep the munich? Or not keep either?
Maybe I just need to try brewing a simple session IPA with one of these grains added and make up my own mind.
It's certainly a lot of different additions to a normal IPA grain bill. I like the additions though. The Wheat will give a bit of a creamy mouthfeel I would think without being overpowering. The victory and munich will add some depth of flavor. Munich giving you a minor buiscut flavor.
What are your hop schedules like?
All in all I like what I see! Let us know how it turns out!
Its a complex grain bill for an IPA, but it sort of reminds of Kern River Citra, which has a similar amount of malts, but no sugar. I don't think you'll need 1.5 pounds of plain sugar if you mash at 147-149 though, but that's just a personal preference.

NONFICTION: A daughter looks at life with her violent and self-aggrandizing father.
"Bulletproof Vest," by Maria Venegas
Jose Venegas was a violent man who committed several murders, one of them cowardly and unforgivable. He was also a vain man who wrote his own corrido for himself — a traditional form of songwriting that valorizes the deeds of dashing and reckless criminals. He shot his first man at the age of 12 at his mother's behest and lived his entire life putting his "honor" and reputation above the needs of his family. He insisted on a code of behavior that got his own son killed in a trivial dispute. He was also the father of author Maria Venegas, whose sharp observations and honesty in "Bulletproof Vest" make this tale of painful love and grudging respect unforgettable.
Venegas' memoir is composed partly of short stories published elsewhere, so the book feels episodic: A scene in her childhood with her father leaving their Chicago home in the middle of the night, bloodied, almost dying, but still defiant and oddly self-absorbed after killing a man at a neighborhood party; Venegas in college and in her early career, where she discovers that the will and rage coursing through her blood is a help and a hindrance, getting her justice in civil disputes in Illinois and pointless street hassles when she moves to New York.
Through it all she maintains an eye for place and time — Williamsburg on the brink of massive gentrification; her father's ranch, with its wind-sanded acres and part-time waterfall, its scruffy, fearless dogs and cows that get more tenderness than people, its chickens nestling in eucalyptus trees at dusk, the one long curved road into town, with its supply stores and cantinas full of music and tense gaiety. Venegas knows how the particulars of a place can wind themselves into your DNA.
Most of all, the story Venegas tells is how to love someone you cannot, should not, forgive. She does not shy away from the moral and emotional conflicts inherent in loving a father who has taken other fathers away from their own children. Her method is to understand, not to excuse. She tells her father's story, illuminating the forces and beliefs that made him who he was — a mother who had to marry the man who raped her, whose own rage and will found outlet only in her sons' perceived strength, an absorbed code of behavior at once extreme and crippling.
Venegas also traces her own path, from alienation to acceptance, even love. When Jose Venegas turns up after a 14-year absence, much of it spent in prison, Maria can barely stand to look at him, but the last line in the book has earned its emotional punch. "How did you know him?" she is asked, and replies, "He was my father."
Venegas' book is intelligent and evenhanded. She tries hard to empathize not just with her father, but also with his victims. In her next book, I hope she can take this a bit further and bring the same vividness to the losers of violent games as to the temporary winners. Then she will have not just a great memoir, or a moving corrido, but a novel.
Emily Carter is the author of "Glory Goes and Gets Some."

Oh no! Rampaging giant whale sharks are attacking China!
Whale sharks are one of the gentle giants of the ocean. The largest fish in the sea, the whale shark is a filter feeder, meaning it opens its mouth and passively filters everything in its path. People pay good money to swim with whale sharks. Which is why this "story" in the Shanghaiist on the catch of […] [Read More]

I sometimes get bogged down by the politics of NASA and its Washington, D.C., overlords, and the seemingly futile cycle of human spaceflight program announcements, under-funding of said programs, and cancellation of such programs.

"A New Favorite in the Epic Fantasy Biz"
There are some authors that are a cut above the rest: Joe Abercrombie, Brent Weeks, George RR Martin, Peter Brett, Pat Rothfuss, Brandon Sanderson, and Mark Lawrence. With these authors, you can be assured that a pre-order commitment won't turn out to be a waste. The Red Knight solidly places Miles Cameron in that "cut above" category.
Loved his performance. The lead character sounded like Sean Bean from the Lord of the Rings.
"Wish it was longer!"
Pete Bradbury takes the story engagement to another level.
Arlen Bales of Tibbit's Brook of course!
At 1hr and 29min, the story isn't too hard to listen to in one sitting.
I really love how Brett has taken his short stories and published them in book and audio-book form. I think it is something that more authors should consider doing to tide readers over until the next full manuscript is finished. If you haven't listened to The Warded Man and The Desert Spear, grab 'em! They are grade A pieces of fantasy that rival the work of Scott Lynch, Brent Weeks, and Joe Abercrombie.
"I liked it, but why are half the men gay?"
Engaging characters, compelling action, a little mystery, and hilarious English slang, a great combination making for a great listen.
Michael Page is amazing. I've listened to seven or eight books he's read and I've not been disappointed yet.
Really though, there were like more gay men than straight men... I just really don't enjoy listening to a dude talk about how nice an ass another guy has.
I have listened to the three previous books by Brent Weeks and was enthralled by them. They were amazing, so I was pretty excited about The Black Prism. Sadly, this book feels like someone else wrote it. Not only does the book disappoint, the reader is quite a let-down as well. The reader has the tendency to chop off sentence clauses that should be read as a whole and make them sound really choppy. His voice is so-so but after listening to Paul Boehmer do the Night Angel Series, this guy just sounds terrible. The book itself reads like a Brandon Sanderson before he figured out how to write. Way to much focus on the magic system and really shallow and boring characters. I really just don???t see how this could be a Brent Weeks book and I hope he doesn???t write more in this setting [crosses fingers].

Our second week in England (and Wales) began with a train ride from Paddington Station, London to Oxford, where we checked into our rooms at the Turf Tavern, a wonderful and very old pub tucked away on a back street. I don't think they rent rooms anymore, but it was great then. In Oxford we visited as many of the famous colleges as we had time for in one day. Continue reading

Remembering England, 1979 Part 1
In the 1970s I had a group of about a dozen good friends that I spent a lot of time with, one from grade school (Tim W, still friends), some from high school, some from Rutgers College, near where I lived in Highland Park, NJ, where those friends had gone to school. During 1978 we started discussing the idea of a trip to England together. I'm not sure who started it, but by a year-end party at my apartment, I agreed to be the one to make plans. As above, I put those plans into a series of six "British Bulletins" I typed up and mailed out to everyone interested. This was great fun, I think trip planning can be nearly as interesting as the trip itself. Those wanting to go waffled, and by the time I needed to make reservations in April, we were down to three going: myself, and two Lindas. Linda R. made her own travel plans from her home in Vermont, I booked charter flights for Linda C. and myself out of Newark, NJ for June 30th, and we met Linda R. in London. I had written to a few small hotels and bed and breakfasts at each of our trip destinations, and mailed out reservation deposits. Unfortunately, it was a time of great labor unrest in England, with many labor strikes and demonstrations. As we arrived at some of our rooms, we found they either hadn't received our deposit yet, or it had just arrived, due to a mail carrier strike! But all the hosts were very helpful, and if they didn't have rooms for us, they found them at a neighbor's house, so that all worked out fine. Here's my write up of the places I had made reservations: Continue reading
Holiday Visits
We're at Ellen's sister Ann's house for the holidays again. This year my friend Tim joined us on Christmas Eve day, where we had some fine meals and played lots of music: Christmas and otherwise. Zack (on left) has become quite a good guitarist, Dave (back center) plays keyboards, Tim and I play guitars also, though this year I was playing auto-harp some of the time, which is easier on my fingers. Everyone sings. It's great fun.
Ann and Ellen entertained us on their "Music Maker" lap harps, which Tim told us is a form of the ancient Russian instrument, "gusli," he has one too. One follows the note pattern printed on interchangeable paper diagrams that slide in below the strings, and I wrote a harmony for "Silent Night," that they were able to do together quite successfully, one following the printed melody, the other the harmony. A link to their performance is HERE.
Cookies are always present at Christmas, Ellen makes some, Ann and Ina make some, and Ann and Dave's friends give them some. Here's the cookie tray for Christmas Eve day, with plenty more for the rest of the holiday.
Christmas morning I was the first one down and turned on the tree lights, but the others were soon rounded up by Ina for our gift openings.
Many fine gifts were enjoyed by all, then we had a fine breakfast with baked apple french toast and egg and cheese casserole.
In the afternoon we visited my brother Doug and his family, where a large group always gathers. I never seem able to get many good pictures there because it's rather a madhouse, but here are all the kids present in a planned group photo, including my niece Haley and nephews Charlie and Dylan.
Nephew Charlie is starting to learn to play the French Horn, and had no problem bringing it out to play a few notes for everyone. He's not shy. We had another fine dinner there with my Mom, and lots of other members of Doug and Lena's extended family and friends.
Soon we'll be heading home to south Jersey, where our cats are being well cared for in our absence, here they are showing what they feel is the best use for a Christmas present: sitting on it. Hope your holidays are merry!
Remembering Mrs. Helen Thompson
Mrs. Helen Thompson, center, with students, in a photo from The Somerset Hills Exponent, May 25, 1961.
I've written about my favorite teacher from the Bedminster Township grade school twice before, a little in my article on our school newspaper and magazine, which she ran, and more in my article on the school itself. Mrs. Thompson taught English to my brothers and I in grades 6-8, and we all worked on the school publications doing art and, in my case, writing stories. I remember her as smart, entertaining in class, and very encouraging to me as a young artist and writer. Others remember that she was also a heavy smoker, and I've long wondered about how that might have affected her career and life. New information has come to light recently, so I thought I'd share it here.
While I spent lots of time with Mrs. Thompson in and after class, I knew nothing about her personal life except what little ran in the 1965 graduation issue of The Bed-Post, as part of a guessing-game called "Spotlight on People." Mrs. Thompson was the subject of this entry:
While I saw Mrs. Thompson occasionally when I had moved on to High School in Bernardsville, NJ (when my school bus would stop at the Bedminster School to pick up more students), I lost touch with her at some point in that time. Recently my youngest brother Russ found some copies of the school publications from his grades 6-8 in 1968-70, and entries there filled in some of the gaps in my knowledge. from The Bedminster Tribune of Oct. 27, 1969:
As you can see, Mrs. Thompson was out sick in the fall of 1969. I have no information on what the illness may have been, but I suspect that she did not return to the school. In the Spring, 1970 issue of The Bed-Post, this editorial by Ellen Burden appeared:
As you might guess, Mrs. Thompson had passed away before the issue saw print, and with help from Patricia Bankowski, I now have her obituary from March 19, 1970:
I may have heard about this from my parents at the time, but if so, I had forgotten it, so it's good to have that long-lingering question of what happened to Mrs. Thompson answered. The issue of The Bed-Post this appeared has replaced Mrs. Thompson's long-standing credit as Advisor with "Acting Advisor: Mrs. Stout," and the following year the Advisor credit went to a new English teacher at the school, Mr. Melovitz.
As noted in the obituary, Mrs. Thompson had no children. Her husband, J. Miller Thompson continued to live in Bedminster, and died in 1992 after remarrying a Mary E. Nevius, who died in 2000.
Wintry Thanksgiving
Thursday we made our annual trek to the northwest corner of New Jersey to spend Thanksgiving with Ellen's sister Ann and her family. This year it was the scene of an early snowfall of about 10 inches of very wet snow, making it much more like Christmas, visually.
It was perfect for snowballs and snowmen, and Ellen's nephew Zach and I made on of the latter.
It had snowed the day before, so the roads were no problem, and it was kind of fun to be suddenly amidst a Winter Wonderland. We had no snow at all where we live in the southern end of the state.

STEM in 2nd Grade Classroom?More Related Discussions
21 Views
I need your help. I have to be honest, I am not 100% clear about what STEM really is. I know that letters stand for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. I also know that the STEM philosophy is a break away from traditional teacher centered classroom to a creative, integrated approach to teaching. My problem is knowing how to implement this approach in my 2nd Grade classroom. I am currently working at a private school that is very slowly and a bit reluctantly embracing a 21st century approach to teaching. Help me with suggested lesson ideas on how to walk out a STEM approach in my classroom. Thanks!
