... got online to do something, but then couldn't remember what it was, so you blogged instead?
... fed your family cold cereal for dinner because you were too lazy to come up with something else?
... had a pile of books to read and not been sure where to start?
... bid for something on eBay and PROMISED yourself you would only go to a certain dollar amount... but then someone outbid you and you just couldn't let THAT happen... so you bid again?
... had a child get the flu in August?
... wondered what would happen if you didn't add water to your microwavable Easy Mac? (Thanks for helping me figure this one out Red!)
... tried to cover up a horrible smoky smell with some Lysol, only to discover that now your home has a "fresh scent" smokey smell?
... driven out to a business that was supposed to have it's grand opening a week ago only to find that they postponed the opening for another 2 weeks?
... gone past a gas station and thought "WOW! Gas is ONLY $4.09! I should stop and fill up!" and then realized how sad it was that you were excited about paying $4.09?
... written a "have you ever" list on your blog?
I rather enjoy these posts... just kind of random fun stuff. I won't be around this weekend. I'm going to dejunk and read. The end. Wish me luck... and have a great weekend!

That Easy Mac looks like burnt worms...
And I'd be cheering for 4.09 I paid 4.34 yesterday. - 5:03 PM

Whoohoo! The Have You Ever...crazy sweeps the bloggosphere! I started that! It was me! Seriously, seeing others do it totally blows my mind.
I can smell that smell in my head, if that makes any sense... - 9:36 PM
- Tracey said...
Done many of those. Not the noodles, though. So thanks for letting me know...
- Yvonne said...
I agree with heather--the easymac does look like worms.
I love the "have you ever" posts--I find myself going yes, yes...I have to agree with the gas one. Who'd have thought we'd be happy with gas and such crazy prices.
Have a great weekend. - 6:52 AM

Uh, yeah. Hubby and I went to the temple last night, and I got all excited because gasoline at my favorite station was down 2 cents from $4.19 to $4.17. I was so thrilled!
And, I have bookcases full of books that I haven't read and don't kow where to start! It's a very bad habit - but I just want to read EVERYTHING. Seriously.
Good luck with the de-stashing! ;-) - 12:50 PM

I always get on line to do something but get distracted checking my email. Drives me nuts when I do that. That Easy Mac looks like worms! ugh! (I just went back and read all the comments and noticed I wasn't the only one that thought that) And yes we have cold cereal for dinner on a regular basis. Nothing wrong with that at all! :)
- Tonya said...
Yep, I thought you were cooking worms there for a minute Melissa :o)
I love the "have you ever" posts. - 8:47 PM
- diana said...
i like these sort of posts also. kinda like a potpourri of what's currently on your mind.
my son once found out what happens when you don't add the water to the microwave mac 'n cheese. i know that smoky smell, too =) - 4:24 PM
- Christy said...
Yes to almost everything... who would have ever thought we'd be excited for gas to come down to $4 a gallon... yikes
- Jill said...
I have to say yes to most of those.
We had the Easy Mac experience at our house. My kids came into my office to tell me that there were flames in the microwave. It completely melted the tupperware bowl that it was in (my son's favorite bowl. He cried)
The smell lasted quite a while.
(I need to add that when this happened the kids were probably fixing themselves lunch because I was too lazy to fix something for them) - 9:53 AM

I was lucky to be invited to the opening of Booming G in the New Sidus HQ Tower in Gangnam. The chef is Bora Song who is well known in the foodie community. She has set up a great Italian focused menu and she uses her creativity to add depth of flavor to her dishes.
While I was there I had an excellent free-form lasagna made with fresh noodles. I loved the meat and sauce on it. There is a secret ingredient in it to give it body. Ask the chef to find out what it is.
Her mushroom risotto was creamy and poppy. I thought finally I found a place that made risotto with arborio rice but nope she hacked it. The poppy texture was made by adding barley and rice. We also had a salmon dish that had crispy skin and salmon cooked just right.
They have a decent beer selection as well. This is one of those places I will be back to visit and I hope it does well.
Oh, and in and around the restaurant is a fricken toy museum with all sorts of stuff from Star Wars to Marvel. Awesome.
Congrats Chef Bora!

For an eye-catching change from the same old black AR look, each of our rifle models is available with a custom color Cerakote upgrade. Complete upper/lower/hand guard or upper/hand guard sets are available for rifles and complete upper assemblies with all components run simultaneously to ensure color match.
Our standard color offerings are Magpul Dark Earth, Magpul OD Green, Tungsten (Dark Gray) and Burnt Bronze, but we can also run specialty jobs in other standard Cerakote colors as well as distinctive camo patterns. Click the gallery at right to see some of our recent Cerakote projects and feel free to contact us about non-standard colors.
Be aware that we run all Cerakote made-to-order, so allow a minimum of three additional weeks for production times on rifles or assemblies. Prices are dependent upon the parts being run.
As with any color process, there can be some slight color variation from batch to batch with Cerakote. In most cases, this is very minimal, but this is why we only run parts in sets and do not rely on combining pieces from various batches to make sets. We cannot guarantee that Cerakote parts purchased from us at different times will necessarily match each other perfectly.
To learn more about Cerakote and view their wide range of testing data, visit the manufacturer's website here.
Our Presentation Grade Finish is the signature JP treatment and unlike anything else out there. To achieve this distinctive look, we start with a hand-selected billet upper and lower combination that has been hard coat anodized. We then wet sand receivers by hand on a large granite inspection block with increasingly fine grits until the aluminum achieves a refined brushed finish on the proud surfaces. To match the receivers, the barrel also receives a pristine polish and compensator blend above and beyond our standard barrel finishing. Lastly, the PGF look is accented with a grind and polish on the flat of the hand guard nut as well as on the faces of the hand guard attachment screws. The end result is a work of art—a rifle that simply demands admiration.
The Presentation Grade Finish upgrade price is $600 for small-frame rifles or $700 for large-frame rifles and is available only on our billet receiver sets: SCR-11, CTR-02 and LRP-07. If you're looking for more than just the black anodize contrast, the PGF is also available on rifles with run in standard Cerakote colors. Because of the efforts involved, allow for a minimum of four additional weeks beyond our standard production times.
As the finishing touch to any JP build, we offer a number of custom lasermark designs that can be added to the magazine well of your rifle. We've picked out several popular options viewable in the gallery below, each available at the upgrade price of $25.
Beyond our ready-to-hand options, we can also mark a lower receiver with text or artwork that you supply for just $50 plus an art generation fee as low as $5. For orders of ten or more rifles, each unit can be marked with your personal design at no additional cost. For details on artwork submission, please contact us.
For any personalized marks, we assume that you have the legal usage of the art or text submitted. JP Enterprises assumes no responsibility or liability for improper usage or copyright infringement. These rest with you, the customer. Additionally, we reserve the right to refuse any laser mark project if we find the content objectionable and/or unworthy of being associated with the JP name.
The Task Force Dagger Foundation is an organization founded by members of the US Army Special Operations units with the goal to provide volunteer and financial assistance to fellow Special Operations soldiers and their families in times of need as these men and women make the difficult transition from the battlefield to the rest of their lives. In collaboration with TFD, JP Enterprises is proud to offer a special Task Force Dagger lasermark on any rifle or lower for $100. We will then match this amount for a combines $200 donated to Task Force Dagger Foundation in your name. It's a sharp-looking way to support a worthy cause.

The EZ Learning Solutions Study Guides and Workbooks were designed to help parents and educators to improve the performance of students and to address the issue of improving the EQAO (Education Quality and Accountability Office) assessments in Ontario. Quite a tall order, but when the overall EQAO results first came out in 2000 - 2001 a Kanata parent of an ADHD child, Terry Fletcher, decided to use his skills as a past educator and Instructional Technologist to address the problem of only 44% of Math 9 Students performing at the provincial standard.
There was a major change in the Ontario Curriculum and both students and teachers were having difficulty coping. Its tough being a parent and his goal was to help those parents with little or no math skills to bridge the gap between the classroom and the home front. He quickly realized that it wasn't enough to just send your child to school. Everyone has to help, including the parents! As a step-father of an ADHD child he wrote the first Math 9 book as a gift of love to this child and to do what ever it took to make sure that this child got through high school. In fact, he never stopped until he had produced a Math 9 Online learning solution with his persona in the form of Dr. EZ teaching the entire course, and he had also published Study Guides for Math 9 Academic/Applied, Math 9 Workbook, Math 10 Applied, Math 10 Academic, Math 10 Workbook 1, Math 10 Workbook 2, Math 11 University/College, and Math 11 University, or the complete high school series to meet the Ontario math requirements for any student to graduate from high school to higher learning.
EZ Learning Solutions Study Guides are part of a family of easy to follow and understand step by step math books designed with a "back-to-basics" approach in mind. These books greatly simplify and break down concepts to provide a guide for self study. Subsequently, they are a great tool for parents who are helping their children learn the fundamentals by providing full solutions with explanations to make learning easy and fun. Of course they are most useful for classroom teachers to lesson plan and reinforce concepts when students are having difficulty understanding. They provide a proven method of getting quick results, especially for students who have been struggling with the new math curriculums in Ontario. Concepts are explained fully, starting at basic learning levels. EZ Learning Solutions Study Guides provide extra hints to speed things along and use a tutorial style to reinforce both past and recent lessons. As students experience success, they gain confidence, and with confidence, their ability to learn improves. Using quizzes and exams, we prepare students to prove their knowledge in the classroom. Students proceed at their own speed and are tested according to the present levels taught in Ontario schools. Please note that all online learning refers to the EZ Learning Solutions study guides, as these learning gems are the crux of a complete turnkey learning process.
EZ Learning Solutions Workbooks are a series of worksheets that provide extra drill and practice to reinforce the EZ Learning Solutions Study Guides and Online learning. But in addition to providing gradually easy to more difficult problems, and unlike the traditional textbooks, the EZ Learning Solutions workbooks provide complete step by step solutions with explanations and understanding to once again continually bridge the gap between classroom learning and the home front. Parents with little understanding of math concepts will be able to help their child through even the most difficult math concepts. Recall sheets are added so that students can continue to work on worksheets with difficult concepts with these added "training wheels" to once again reinforce and review past learning. The EZ Learning workbooks can be used by parents or teachers to test concepts prior to major exams or to constantly review past learning in a systematic manner.
EZ Learning Solutions Online Learning is part of a turnkey learning model to include not only canned classroom teaching but a reinforcement to the EZ Learning Solutions Study guides and Workbooks. Dr. EZ does the teaching and Tarah, his assistant, reinforces his lessons as you progress through the study guide. The EZ Math 9 Online program combines the benefits of eLearning that include interactive exercises and audio and visual aids, with the Gemini performance based adaptive technology and EZ Learning Solutions proven step-by-step approach to learning Math. Their solutions combine ease of use, implementation, and unique Adaptive Learning. Testing, and Assessment technologies that deliver unparalleled value and learning advantages to students.
Benefits of EZ Learning Solutions Study Guides, Workbooks, & Online learning The EZ Learning Solutions Study Aids have many versatile and dynamic uses in helping reinforce understanding of core subject curriculum. We suggest that you use our Study Aids for the following:

5 recipes for powerhouse cabbage
Now that St. Patrick's Day is over, don't put away the cabbage. Here are five recipes for this nutrient rich vegetable to incorporate into your every day cooking.
Wed, Mar 18, 2009 at 11:56 AM
Question. Did anyone make the slow cooker corned beef and cabbage recipe that I put up last week? How did you like it?
I've been thinking about cabbage. For my entire cooking career it's been relegated to the stuff you put in cole slaw. But it's a powerhouse of nutrients, and I'd like to add it more regularly in my family's diet. It's got vitamins A,B,C,E, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iodine, zink and iron. Plus it's full of fiber. I'm thinking about adding it to my garden this year.
I went to a cookware demonstration over the weekend, and the demonstrator kept talking about how healthy cabbage is. In Ireland, she said, they call it the "poor man's medicine." I don't know if that's actually true, but she said it a lot.
I've got a recipe for you for a salad that she made with both green and red cabbage. It's a cancer fighting salad that apparently was created by the American Cancer Society, but I can't find evidence of it on their website. Still, it was a good salad. I'm not a big salad eater (I know I should be), but this one has no lettuce, and I liked that.
- Thinly sliced carrots
- Thinly sliced yellow squash
- Thinly sliced cucumber with the skin on
- Shredded green cabbage
- Shredded yellow cabbage
- Shredded broccoli stalks
- Shredded onion
- Shredded butternut squash (which ends up looking like cheese on your salad)
Toss in a bowl and sprinkle with a heart healthy dressing such as olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Don't drown it.
Here are four other recipes that use cabbage that you might want to give a try.

Travellers Essentials
Money Matters The basic monetary unit of Norway is the Norwegian krone (6.45 kroner equal U.S. $1; 1996 average). The krone is divided into 100 øre. The central bank is the Bank of Norway (established 1816), which is the sole bank of issue. Norway also has 133 savings banks and 20 commercial banks. There are also ten publicly financed government banks.
When to Go Norway is at its best and brightest from May to September. Late spring is a particularly pleasant time - fruit trees are in bloom, daylight hours are long, and most hostels and sights are open but uncrowded. Unless you're heavily into winter skiing or searching for the Aurora Borealis of the polar nights, Norway's cold dark winters are not the prime time to visit. Midnight-sun days, when the sun never drops below the horizon, extend from 13 May to 29 July and from 28 May to 14 July in the Lofoten islands.
Getting There International airlines link Oslo with most major European cities. Bergen, Stavanger and Trondheim also have international airports. There is no departure tax when leaving Norway. Trains run daily from Oslo to Copenhagen in Denmark and to Helsingborg and Stockholm in Sweden. There are also trains to Stockholm from Trondheim and Narvik. Numerous highways and secondary roads link Norway with Finland and Sweden. A bus and a catamaran service link Kirkenes in northern Norway with Murmansk in Russia. There are also ferries to/from Denmark, Sweden, the UK, Iceland and the Faroe Islands.
Getting Around Norway's main domestic airlines - SAS, Braathens SAFE and Widerøe Norsk Air - fly to nearly 50 airports scattered across the country. Distances are great in Norway, which means air travel should be considered even by budget travellers. Norway also has an extensive bus network, with routes connecting every main city as well as more remote areas.
The national rail system is good, though somewhat limited, with main lines running from Oslo to Stavanger, Bergen, Åndalsnes and Bodø. Major car-rental companies have offices at airports and city centres but rates are expensive. Given its great distances, hilly terrain and narrow roads, Norway is not ideally suited for cycling. The one bonus for cyclists is that traffic is very light. A far-reaching system of ferries and express boats link Norway's offshore islands, coastal towns and fjord districts.
For more than a century, the coastal steamer Hurtigruten has been the lifeline linking the tiny fishing communities scattered along the northern coast. A ship heads north from Bergen every night calling at 33 ports on the six-day journey to Kirkenes. Local transport in the cities and towns is generally efficient and served mainly by public buses. Oslo also has an underground rail system, trams and ferries.
Passports All foreign nationals who wish to enter Norway must have a valid passport or other identification that is officially recognized as a valid travel document. Only Nordic nationals are exempt from this passport requirement.
Visas Foreign nationals from a number of countries are not allowed to enter Norway without a visa stamped in their passport or equivalent identity document, i.e. the visa is inscribed in the travel document. Visas are inscribed by authorized Norwegian Foreign Service missions.
In very special cases, a visa can be issued on arrival. Entry into Norway shall only take place at approved border crossings where there is passport control.
Visitors' visas may be granted for tourist visits, family visits, official assignments, business trips, study visits or certain other purposes.
A visitor's visa is valid for a maximum of three months. A foreign national who intends to stay in Norway for more than three months, or who wants to work in Norway, must apply for a residence permit or work permit in advance, provided her or she does not come under the EEA agreement.

Hysterosalpingography is a special x-ray using dye to look at the womb (uterus) and fallopian tubes.
This test is done in a radiology department. You will lie on a table beneath an x-ray machine. You will place your feet in stirrups, like you do during a pelvic exam. A tool called a speculum is placed into the vagina.
After the cervix is cleaned, the health care provider places a thin tube (catheter) through the cervix. Dye, called contrast, flows through this tube, filling the womb and fallopian tubes. X-rays are taken. The dye makes these areas easier to see on x-rays.
Your doctor may give you antibiotics to take before and after the test. This helps prevent infections. You may also be given medicines to take the day of the procedure to help you relax.
The best time for this test is about 7 or 8 days after the bleeding from your menstrual period has stopped. Doing it at this time also reduces the risk for infection, and ensures that you are not pregnant.
Tell your doctor or nurse if you have had an allergic reaction to contrast dye before.
You can eat and drink normally before the test.
You may have some discomfort when the speculum is inserted into the vagina. This is similar to a pelvic exam with a Pap smear.
Some women have cramps during or after the test, like those you may get during your period.
You may have some pain if the dye leaks out of the tubes, or if the tubes are blocked.
This test is done to check for blockages in your Fallopian tubes or other problems in the womb and tubes. It is often done as part of an infertility exam. It may also be done after you have your tubes tied to confirm that the tubes are fully blocked after you have had a hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure to prevent pregnancy.
A normal result means everything looks normal. There are no defects.
Note: Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Abnormal results may be due to:
This test should not be performed if you have pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) or have unexplained vaginal bleeding.
After the test, tell your health care provider right away if you have any signs or symptoms of infection. These include foul-smelling vaginal discharge, pain, or fever.

View entire discussion [<< prev] [ next >>] From: Bryan <email@example.com> To: Teacher2Teacher Public Discussion Date: 2003050813:23:36 Subject: Uses of Front end Estimation Two of my friends were discussing "Front End Estimation" that they were trying to teach in their second grade classes. I had never heard of it, so they explained it to me and then wondered where it would be used. I read the other postings, but have not seen any persuasive example that showed a need for this type of estimation. Does anyone have an example of when "Front End Estimation" would be a significant advantage over "rounding" or looking at the most significant digits? Does anyone know if the method uses the first two digits or only the first digit (the posted discussions were unclear)? The method, as explained to me, was: "59", "54", "55" are all "50" using Front End Estimation. Thank you in advance, Bryan

Designer: Joe Colombo
(1930 - 1971)
Cesare "Joe" Colombo was born in Milan as the second of three brothers. He studied painting and sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, the academy of fine arts, in Milan and then architecture at Politecnico di Milano University.
In 1958, Joe and his younger brother Gianni took over the family business, which produced electric appliances. Using the factory as a playground, he started to experiment with new construction and production technologies. In 1962 Joe Colombo opened his own design office, which specialized in interior design and architecture projects for industry and retail stores. Concentrating on industrial design for the remainder of his short life, Joe Colombo believed that many problems could be solved by the use of new materials - first and foremost plastic. Joe Colombo was one of the most influential and representative designers of the modern era and his adventurous and futuristic character became his trademark. He received many awards for his designs and his works have been exhibited and included in the some of the most significant museum collections worldwide.

I am about to upgrade my light and I was going to get the MJ-808e head only for $55.
Then I saw that Bikeray is selling theirs as head only.
The Bikeray III is $94.99 and Bikeray IV is $124.99.
I could not find much in the way of beam shots for the Bikeray III.
This is for road riding so I am more interested in throw, but some flood would be helpful.
Also I would like something with an even beam pattern with no hot spots.
I am willing to spend the extra money for the Bikeray if there is some benefit compared to the MJ-808e. I don't want to go over $100 but again if the Bikeray IV is worth the extra money I would consider it.

Wheatgrass (Triticum aestivum)
Generic Name: Triticum aestivum
Herbs & SupplementsSynonyms
Agropyron, bread wheat, bugday, cheng ping, common wheat, Elytrigia, Eremopyrum, fou mai, frumint, Gramineae (family), Hsiao mai, hui mai, hui mien, ka shih tso, lai, mai ch'ao, mai fu, mai fu tzu, man tou, mien, mien chin, mien fen, mo mo, pai mien, Pascopyrum, Poaeceae (family), Pseudoroegneria, tarwe, trigo, Triticum aestivum, Triticum hybernum, Triticum vulgar, Triticummacha, Triticummuticum, Triticumsphaerococcum, vegan diet, wheat, wheat berry, wheat grass.
There are several varieties of wheatgrass in the following plant genera: Agropyron, Elytrigia, Eremopyrum, Pascopyrum, and Pseudoroegneria. Wheatgrass is often used in vegan diets or other "living food" diets. Wheatgrass has become popularized in the United States and marketed toward the health-conscious individuals. In folk medicine, practitioners used wheatgrass to treat cystitis, gout, rheumatic pain, chronic skin disorders, and constipation.
Despite its name, wheatgrass is gluten-free and is suitable for patients with gluten intolerance. Fresh leaf buds of this plant can be crushed to create a juice or dried to make a powder. The unprocessed plant contains high levels of cellulose, which cannot be digested. Wheatgrass juice is the juice extracted from the pulp of wheatgrass and has been used as a general-purpose health tonic for several years.
Wheatgrass is a complete protein with about 30 enzymes, and it is about 70% crude chlorophyll. The chlorophyll molecule is similar in structure to hemoglobin, leading some to believe that wheatgrass helps blood flow, digestion and general detoxification of the body. However, despite wheatgrass' popularity in the United States, there are no high-quality clinical trials for wheatgrass.
DISCLAIMER: These uses have been tested in humans or animals. Safety and effectiveness have not always been proven. Some of these conditions are potentially serious, and should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare provider.
Beta-thalassemia (transfusion dependent):
Evidence suggests that wheatgrass may be beneficial for patients with beta thalassemia, and decrease the number of blood transfusions needed. However, further research is needed before a firm conclusion can be drawn.
Grade: C
Ulcerative colitis:
One study reported potential benefits of wheatgrass in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. However, further research is needed to confirm these findings.
Grade: C
WARNING: DISCLAIMER: The below uses are based on tradition, scientific theories, or limited research. They often have not been thoroughly tested in humans, and safety and effectiveness have not always been proven. Some of these conditions are potentially serious, and should be evaluated by a qualified healthcare provider. There may be other proposed uses that are not listed below.AIDS, acne, alcohol dependence, antibilious (removes excess bile), antiperspirant, antipyretic (fever reducer), blood flow disorders, bruises, burns, cancer (peritoneal), chronic skin disorders, circulation, constipation, cough, cystitis, detoxification, diabetes, digestion, eczema, energy enhancement, eye strain, fever, gout (foot inflammation), hypertension (high blood pressure), infection, gingivitis, malaise, pain (abdominal), poison ivy, psoriasis, scar healing, rheumatoid arthritis, sedative, skin ailments, sore throat, sterility, thirst, tooth disease prevention, weight loss aid, wound healing.
Adults (18 years and older):
For transfusion dependent beta thalassemia (blood disorder) or ulcerative colitis, 100 milliliters of wheatgrass juice daily has been found effective. Traditionally, 8-32 ounces of wheatgrass juice has been administered via enemas, rubber bulb syringes or colonics for colon cleansing.
Children (younger than 18 years):
There is no proven safe or effective dose for wheatgrass, and use in children is not recommended.

Patrick became quite famous.(see below). His wife died in childbirth and his son was killed at sea. John married Frances Benham had a son William Benham Bennett Higgins. We then lose track of them. William married twice, First to Eve Rebecca Smart and had a daughter. He later married Grace Peters in Dannivirke New Zealand and had 2 sons Jack and Robert.

Regards GARY PORTER gjporter AT westnet.com.au Source: http://www.adb.online.anu.edu.au/biogs/A040441b.htm?hilite=higgins Higgins, Patrick (1825 - 1882) HIGGINS, PATRICK (1825-1882), contractor and pastoralist, was born in Sligo, Connaught, Ireland, son of John Higgins, farmer and tenant of Lord Palmerston, and his wife Margaret, née Lunuy. Educated at the Sligo Academy, he became a successful contractor and, attracted by the gold discoveries, in 1852 migrated to Victoria with his brother John. He followed Palmerston's advice to continue his career and with his brother in 1853 won a contract to make part of the Mount Alexander Road which led to goldfields at Castlemaine, Chewton and Bendigo. He obtained many other road-making contracts from the Public Works Department but in 1857 changed to railway construction and carried out the extensive earthwork of the Melbourne and Suburban Railway Co. He also made part of the Melbourne-Echuca line and engaged in some profitable squatting ventures with Hugh Glass. In 1858 he became a magistrate. By 1866 Higgins was probably the leading public-works entrepreneur in Victoria. In that year he won the contract to construct the Lithgow section of the zigzag railway in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. He completed it in 1869 and, assessing the great economic potential of the area, promoted the Lithgow Valley Coal Co. and the Lithgow Pottery. In 1867 he had become a magistrate of New South Wales. He consolidated his wealth with profitable squatting investments on the Lachlan and Murray rivers. Higgins was not so fortunate in his personal life. In 1855 in Melbourne he married Rose, daughter of John Lynch, of Sligo. Next year she died giving birth to a son. In 1872 Higgins was taking the boy to Europe to finish his education when he was lost overboard between Sydney and Melbourne. Distraught and stricken with heart trouble, Higgins went to Europe and America and proved a discerning and observant traveller. On his return to Sydney in 1876 he determined to enter public life. By then he was recognized as an entrepreneur whose pioneering had benefited both Victoria and New South Wales as well as himself. An associate of other leading industrialists and pastoralists, including the relatively small Irish-Catholic group headed by P. A. Jennings, he was a director of the Sydney Tramway and Omnibus Co., the Intercolonial Life Assurance and General Association, the Intercolonial Board of Executors Trustees and Agency Co. and other companies. His popularity did not enable him to enter the Legislative Assembly. In 1877, despite a progressive and liberal programme, which included enlightened nonsectarian views on education and immigration, he was defeated at Hartley by J. Hurley. In 1879, a year of crisis for denominational education, Henry Parkes appointed him a commissioner for the International Exhibition in Sydney, and in 1881 a Sydney representative for Melbourne's Exhibition. In accepting Parkes's nomination to the Legislative Council in December 1880 Higgins said he was 'impressed with a full sense of the responsibility which loyalty, duty and independence impose'. The only Catholic member, Higgins was making a worthy mark in the council when he died suddenly from heart disease on 28 January 1882. With Jennings in charge, his body was taken to Melbourne and buried in the general cemetery. £10,000 of his estate of £44,000 was left to his brother, John, and substantial charitable bequests complemented similar gifts he had made when alive.

George Ah Kin, a full-blood Chinese, arrived in NSW in the 1850s and Mary Higgins, born in Sydney in 1844, the fourth child of Michael Higgins and Ann Ryan. The Ah Kins had 15 children, nine of whom have living descendants. It is probable that George and Mary met on the goldfields and the birth of their first daughter, Emma, has the family living as Delegate Diggins. Margaret was born at Bendoc and George, Thomas, Agnes Mary and Samuel were born at Craigie and it was there that Mary and George were married according for the rites of the Church of England. On the birth certificates of his children, George named himself as storekeeper and carrier. In 1874 the family moved to Bombala and in 1875 George set himself up as a carrier and James Joseph was born. Wanting to buy land George had to put in a naturalisation application and in 1861 he purchased land at Bombala but transferred his land when he moved to Nimmitabel. Between 1875 and 1881 George was a hawker. John Patrick was born in 1877, Alexander in 1878 and Walter Henry in 1880. In 1878 Emma (then 13) married John Ab Long and moved to Sydney. George and Mary moved to Nimmitybelle and George set up business as a storekeeper and butcher. In 1882 Elizabeth Anne was born and 1883 Mary was born. Their thirteenth child, William Gabriel, was born in July 1885 but died the same year. In 1887 Alice Maud was born but Alexander died aged nine. The last of the children, Violet May, was born in 1890. In a book on Nimitybelle it was recalled that a Mr Ah Kin of Chinese origin had two pair of dental forceps, one side curved, the other straight, and he did most of the extractions for local folk and occasional travellers. George Junior, Sam and Tom operated a coach service to Bega. Their father became bankrupt and went to Sydney to live. He died in 1905. Mary died in 1910. It was George Junior who eventually settled in Bega and he and his wife Edith Walker had 11 children This family is the only one who kept the name, though they put it together to be Ahkin. //// link found concerning this family http://www.users.bigpond.com/donherbert1/pafg845.htm

The Higgins Family archive by Vivian Hill It would be interesting to know if any other family has served a local community with the provision of legal services for one hundred and thirty-eight years. The Higgins family came to Geelong when a Congregational Minister William Higgins (1805-1876) responded to John Dunmore Lang's plea to save Australia from domination by Popery he feared would come from the Irish migration occurring in the 1840s. The minister and his family left England on the "Larpent" in March 1849 and soon after arrival in Geelong on 29th June his 16 year old son, also named William, obtained work with the Irish solicitor Joseph Belcher. After serving Articles and being admitted to legal practice in 1856 he established his own business. Some records of that business are held by the Geelong Historical Record Centre. An examination of them shows the wide range of the legal practice he conducted. In all 8 members of the family gave good legal service to Geelong citizens for well over a century.

The impact of corporate governance on closed-end funds
Gemmill, Gordon and Thomas, Dylan C. (2006) The impact of corporate governance on closed-end funds. In: Symposium on European Corporate Governance, Univ Leeds, Leeds, ENGLAND, APR, 2005. Published in: EUROPEAN FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, 12 (5). pp. 725-746.
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This study uses a large sample of UK-listed closed-end funds to examine whether governance has an impact on two indicators of fund performance: the level of fund-management fees and the discount at which a fund trades. Fees are under the control of the directors, and we find that they are inversely related to fund returns, even after allowing for differences across investment sectors. Fees are, on average, higher if a fund has a large board, few directors from outside the fund-family, many directors from within the fund-family, and low ownership by the management company. Discounts for funds are wider if the management company or any blockholder has a significant long-term stake, suggesting that investors are wary of entrenched management. The results suggest that boards are frequently compromised in their duty to shareholders by their dependence on fund-management companies.

Ahead of Osborne's semi-annual statement, the Office for Budget Responsibility will announce financial figures, expected to show higher borrowing and lower growth than previous estimates. Vicky Redwood, an economist at Capital Economics, said those figures will force Osborne "to choose between introducing even more austerity in the autumn statement and letting at least one of his fiscal rules slide."

Rick Perry tells Obama and HHS to go **** themselves
AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - Governor Rick Perry said on Monday Texas will not implement an expansion of the Medicaid program or create a health insurance exchange, placing the state with the highest percentage of people without insurance outside key parts of President Barack Obama's signature law.
Perry joined fellow Republican governors of Florida, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Mississippi and Louisiana in rejecting the two provisions of the law, according to americanhealthline.com. They hope that November elections will result in Republicans winning the White House and enough seats in Congress to repeal the law.
"I will not be party to socializing healthcare and bankrupting my state in direct contradiction to our Constitution and our founding principles of limited government," Perry said in a statement.
He sent a letter on Monday to U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius asking her to relay the message to Obama that Perry opposes the provisions "because both represent brazen intrusions into the sovereignty of our state."
"I stand proudly with the growing chorus of governors who reject the Obamacare power grab. Neither a 'state' exchange nor the expansion of Medicaid under this program would result in better 'patient protection' or in more 'affordable care,'" said Perry, who dropped out of the Republican presidential race in January. "They would only make Texas a mere appendage of the federal government when it comes to health care."
Perry, the longest-serving governor in Texas history, is a frequent critic of the Obama administration and the author of a book on states' rights called "Fed Up! Our Fight to Save America From Washington." Perry in 2009 rejected federal funding for unemployment benefits because accepting it would have required Texas to expand the number of people entitled to draw the benefits.
"To expand this program is like adding a thousand people to the Titanic," Perry said. "You don't expand a program that is not working already. If the federal government were serious about finding solutions, what they would do is block-grant those dollars back to the states, so states could find more efficient ways to deliver healthcare."

Better opt out now and send the whiners to states pushing for obamacare. Let those states deal with the consequences.

I live in Texas and am tired of governors like Bush and Perry. This is nonsense! We currently have the highest rate of people, especially children without insurance in the nation! Republicans run this state, and they will have to be forced to do it, just like the states of the South when it came to desegregation. You are exactly right. I think the debates should have shown people just how stupid Rick Perry is.
Republicans keep re-electing this idiot. He has fired teachers, fire fighters, and police officers in this state. He took the stimulus money and balanced the state's budget, and refused to use it for what it was intended for. He chose instead to fire people. What a dufus! -

This is a discussion on Bushmaster within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Main Category category; Does anybody know why Bushmaster would shut down and sell the company...
Does anybody know why Bushmaster would shut down and sell the company
Too much confusion with the porn star...? IDK...
Operation Veterans Relief: http://www.opvr.org/home.html
The parent company that owns Bushmaster is doing it.
They aren't closing down, they are selling off the assets.
It's parent company's parent company is Cerberus. They have had plenty of bad press in the past and are just bailing early.
Seems a little shocking because of the boom in firearms but these are very politically connected people (part of the reason they draw bad press). Maybe they knew about Obamas plan (President Obama Speaks - Get Ready for an Assault Weapons Ban Battle) and thought better to show they were backing away first.
Contrary to the socialist/fascist country the piece of garbage envisions, capitalism is still alive and well. You follow the money and find the reason for a company being sold. It always comes down to profit and loss and whether your money can be invested elsewhere for a better return.
Operation Veterans Relief: http://www.opvr.org/home.html
here 's what i found so far
Bushmaster became part of the Freedom Group, owned by Cerberus Capital Management, when owner Richard E. Dyke, who had purchased the company in 1978, sold the company to Cerberus in April, 2006. [2] On December 18, 2012, following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, Cerberus announced that it will sell Bushmaster in order to protect the interests of its clients. [3]
They are not closing down or selling. The investment company that owns the dozen or so companies that the freedom group is made up of is selling.
Kalifornia teacher's retirement funds are invested in Cerebus. Teachers squawked. That is why they are selling off the group that holds Bushmaster. (in a nutshell)
Stop, Drop, and Roll won't work in Hell.

"Our owner [John Hui, who purchased the company and took it private in 2009 under Image Holdings Corp.] has an extensive background in PCs. He was the co-founder of eMachines, which was sold to Gateway, and he was a stakeholder in Packard Bell," Kayser said. "The individuals at a high level have a lot of PC experience."

Barriers to Leaving an Abusive Relationship
Barriers to Leaving an Abusive Relationship
Many people ask "Why doesn't the victim leave? Why does the victim stay?" as if it is that simple. It is important to understand that there are many barriers to safety in an abusive relationship. Leaving is often dangerous and there are many factors an abused partner must consider in the analysis of how to respond to an abusive partner. The better question is "Why does the abuser do this and how can I help the survivor gain access to safety?" The reality is that the most dangerous time for a survivor/victim is when she leaves the abusive partner; 75% of domestic violence related homicides occur upon separation and there is a 75% increase of violence upon separation for at least two years. These concerns are very real and must be addressed with safety planning.
- Isolation: from friends, family, community support, resources, as abusers often attempt to cut off survivors from support networks as a control mechanism
- Children: desire to provide them with a two-parent home, custody concerns (such as the abuser gaining custody which still occurs in 50% of places) etc.
- Fear: of retaliation; of being killed; of the abuser hurting loved ones; of being stalked; of not being believed; of unsupervised visits with the abuser putting children at risk
- Threats: the abusive partner may threaten to commit suicide or hurt their partner/children, other loved ones and/or pets, threaten to call INS (Immigration and Naturalization Services), threaten to take the children, threaten to "out" their partner to family or coworkers…
- Economic necessity
- Lack of resources or information about available resources (e.g. lack of transportation to services or lack of access to the internet to find services)
- Shelters are full and there is nowhere to safely go
- Connection to and concern for partner's well-being (fear that partner will be arrested, imprisoned, deported etc. which may have consequences for retaliation, finances, and children)
- Hope/belief that partner will change, often resulting from manipulative tactics by the abuser
- Failure of the criminal justice system: with a very low prosecution rate, survivors are not likely to pursue prosecution when they will have to be revictimized in court without any meaningful results. Perpetrators often threaten the partner if they don't recant and even when victims do "press charges," it often only leads to a slap on the wrist for the perpetrator.
- Culture/ religion/ family pressures to stay together
- Shame and guilt, largely because of societal victim blaming
- Belief that the abuse is their fault
- Immigration status: fear of deportation without partner's support, fear of separation from children, law enforcement etc.

according to Peter: "Version 0.3 is a complete rewrite of the Avanti code base after a rethinking of the basic architecture and design. The result is the beginnings of a simple, highly modular and scalable client/server architecture using its own native messaging protocol for client/server communication." For more, see the Avanti site or you can telnet to the live demo to try it out.
BioMail needs a host
BioMail (new link) was apparently shut down by its author's department, according to the message posted at its former site. Dmitry also stated, in a message to all users, "I have yet to find a host where I can continue the BioMail alert service temporarily or permanently. If someone can help, I would be very glad. BioMail requires a Unix system with Perl, a webserver installed, and a stable internet connection (Linux computer with Apache is preferable)." Can anyone lend a few server processes to get this up and running asap? [update (3/3)]: Dmitry just let me know via email that not only has the sourceforge crew ok'd running the server there, but he also already received two messages from some of you friendly folks who saw this or got the message from oss4lib-list. Way to go, folks... :)
As seen at freshmeat, gnome-list, and noted by Matt W.: "Many annoying bugfixes, a graphical configuration mechanism, and an XML-based style format for bibliographic outputs." Go to www.gnome.org/pybliographer (note new url) for more.
Shane Nackerud writes: "FreeReserves makes your e-reserves site database driven, and some of its best features include a simple copyright management feature, password protection, security at the document level, and the ability to handle multiple filetypes. FreeReserves is a free program; you can redistribute it and/ormodify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License." Looks like several different institutions are already using it, too...
Database Advisor from UCSD
from the DBA Sciences page: "Database Advisor (DBA) was created to aid database users in selecting the best database for their query. DBA spawns a search process for each database vendor, and returns the hits on the query to the user. It sorts these results so the user can see where each database stands relative to the others." DBA is GPL'd, and its components are all free according to one license or another. You can even take it for a test drive...
Gutenbook-0.1 -- the original?
as seen at freshmeat: "Gutenbook is a personal multi-stage project to design, prototype, and develop a GTK+-based desktop application for reading Project Gutenberg Etexts. Currently, development consists of advanced prototyping in Perl/GTK+." According to the author, Lee, this is the original codebase from which the other Gutenbook project started, but this one is purely focused on perl/gtk+ instead of multiple (incompatible) codebases.
as seen at freshmeat, and at SIXPACK site: "SIXPACK is a free BibTeX and Reference Manager designed to edit, convert and manage reference files, search and sort bibliographies, import and export many different bibliography types. Sixpack uses the excelent perl package bp by Dana Jacobson to covert between formats." and it reads/writes bibtex, refer, endnote, tip, procite, rfc1807, and plain text along with one-way for several others. written in perl/tk... looks real good.
dba: new gpl version; new maintainers needed
as seen on dba-l: "What's available: A new, improved version of the code (dated March 17, 2000) [available at UCSB here]. This version now offers 'instant gratification,' whereby access to the results of the keyword search in each database is just a click away, without requiring the user to type in their search query again....
The California Digital Library's SearchLight service (
searchlight.cdlib.org/cgi-bin/searchlight), which was originally based upon the DBA code, has replaced DBA at the University of California, San Diego. Since we are no longer maintaining the code, please join the DBA mailing list and share your patches and improvements with other interested parties directly. We will not be releasing any patches or new versions of DBA ourselves. We encourage you to take the code and use it as you see fit, under the terms of the GPL. If you or your institution would like to volunteer to be the official maintainer of the DBA code, please contact Christy Hightower."
OSCR - open source course reserve
Wally Grotophorst from GMU says: "OSCR uses Perl & MySQL to provide electronic reserves services at an academic library...." and that they are "entering their second year on the product." Download it yourself at timesync.gmu.edu/OSCR, it is under the GPL.
improvements include several bugfixes, javascript-based ui improvements on "yale view", issuelists for JSTOR and Project MUSE added, removal of several redundant records, added support for * and ? as search wildcards and issn searching. take it for a spin at jake.med.yale.edu...

Media coverage of the presidential race heated up as Election Day neared, but the overall audience of network evening newscasts actually decreased in the last months of the campaign.
The three major network newscasts were down 280,000 viewers since Sept. 22 compared with the same period last year.
ABC's "World News" slipped 2 percent to 8.2 million viewers, and "CBS Evening News" fell 3 percent to 6.1 million viewers. "NBC Nightly News" saw a slight increase, up 1 percent to 8.37 million viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research data reported by the Los Angeles Times.
On the other hand, the cable news networks saw a sharp increase in viewers during the race, more than doubling their prime-time audiences this fall.
The drop in viewership for the network evening newscasts "at a time when viewers were aggressively seeking news speaks to the challenge the programs face in a landscape increasingly cluttered with media choices," the Times observed.
"Once the country's dominant news platforms, the three flagship network newscasts found themselves jockeying this season with cable channels and Internet sites to deliver the freshest political updates."
Since 1991, the combined audience of the three networks has dropped from 36.7 million to 22.7 million.
