backlog of unprocessed submissions to the Sprague Project remains large.
Expect major delays in response to your submissions. Please see
front page for details.
Due to the ease that
websites can be datamined, scraped, etc., such as with the software
aptly named SiteSucker, recently championed in a popular genealogical
newsletter, I have determined that it is now necessary to close down
this website each evening, from about
11:00 p.m. to 7:10 a.m (E.D.T).
I apologize to one and all for having to do this. I cannot keep an eye
at night on those who intend to grab all that we have made available
for free since 1996. I am looking for software that will preclude massive
downloads and when I obtain it, things will return to what they were
and this website will once again be open 24 hours a day.

The Sprague Project search feature is disabled at night to prevent data mining. We apologize that we must do this.

Eh. no, while you "can" work fine in Open/Libre office, it's certainly no replacement for Office.
It's mostly opening documents created with MS Office in OOo/LO or other alternative products, especially Excel documents tend to mess up easily.
Glassed Silver:mac
I'm curious, aside from what Glassed Silver mentioned, what issues do you have with OOo or Libre? I use Libre every single day at work, more than most people, mostly in Calc (Excel), and I can't say I can recall having a single issue. I believe that it does have quirks, but aside from learning a new UI, I think Libre Office is pretty damn capable. Can't really ever think of a time when I've said "Damn, I wish I just had Office!". I mean this as an honest question because a few years ago I would have definitely agreed, but these days Libre seems to be a decent alternative. A lot of really big companies rely on Libre.

Tinmouth residents return to town meeting traditionBy SANDI SWITZER
Correspondent | March 05,2013TINMOUTH Residents gathering for a traditional town meeting for the first time in several years approved municipal and school budgets.
About 110 citizens spent Saturday afternoon at the Tinmouth Community Center discussing and then approving all proposed budgets and special articles.
Those items had been decided by Australian ballot since residents voted in 2006 to replace the long-standing traditional town meeting with the Australian ballot system of voting.
However, citizens revisited the matter last year and voted to return to a traditional Town Meeting Day for budgets and special articles. Elective offices are still determined by Australian ballot.
A lot of people were very grateful we were there to sort things out, Town Clerk Gail Fallar said of the traditional meeting.
The $1,518,375 school budget up 6.7 percent, or $95,422, more than this years budget of $1,422,953 was approved by an 80-13 vote, according to Fallar.
A special article on switching from Rutland Southwest Supervisory Union to Rutland South Supervisory Union was unanimously approved, she said.
Voters passed the $191,195 town budget and the $430,800 highway spending plan along with a $25,000 special article for extra paving, Fallar said.
An item asking voters to authorize the Select Board to appoint constables was postponed indefinitely when it was determined the matter should be voted by Australian ballot, the town clerk said.
Fallar said the traditional town meeting took about two and a half hours and that included about 20 minutes of community announcements from various groups about upcoming events.MORE IN Local & StateRecovery takes time, patience and a desire to change.

It wasn't a good day for the Mississippi high school boys basketball teams at the Travis Outlaw Slam Dunk at the Hump Christmas Tournament.
Not only was host Starkville defeated by Midfield, Ala., in the final game of the day, but New Hope lost a 51-40 decision to Lanett, Ala., in the first game of the day and Aberdeen fell 72-61 to Hamilton, Tenn.
Even though his Bulldogs didn't come out on the winning side, coach Roy Hazzle said the opportunity to play at Humphrey Coliseum on the Mississippi State campus was worth the drive down from Aberdeen.
"It's a place where young people have to grow up," Hazzle said. "This is the best of the best playing here.
It's an experience they will never forget. We appreciate the invitation. We wish we could have played three nights in a row, but we had to work something out with our schedule."
Hazzle's Bulldogs jumped out to a 21-20 lead after the first quarter, but the team from Tennessee gained a 34-31 advantage at halftime and took control of the game from that point.
Keelon Lawson led Hamilton, Tenn., with 21 points, while Tyren Collier added 17 points, Dedric Lawson scored 12 points and DeMonte Pearson chipped in 11 points.
For Aberdeen, Ken McCoy had 14 points and Brandon Hodges also scored in double figures with 10 points.
"We love coming here, but the kids need to start being at their best when they come into an atmosphere like this," Hazzle said. "We have a dome, but this beats all of it right here. We're going to come back, wipe this away and treat (today) as a new day."
The Bulldogs play Lanett, Ala., at 4:30 p.m., while Hamilton, Tenn., takes on Starkville at 6 p.m. in today's action.
Lanett, Ala. 51
New Hope 40
Desmond Stevenson had 14 points as the visitors from Alabama took control of the game against the Trojans in the fourth quarter.
Lanett, Ala., jumped out to a 6-0, but New Hope kept the game close by only trailing 16-12 after the first quarter, 26-24 at the half and 34-33 in the third quarter. The Trojans were only able to score seven points in the final quarter.
For Lanett, Ala., Orendaz Holloway joined Stevenson in double digits with 11 points.
Whyatt Foster had 10 points for New Hope, which plays Midfield, Ala., at 3 p.m. today.

By Claire Walla
When howling winds from Tropical Storm Irene ravaged the East End last month, hundreds of tree branches snapped and entire tree trunks were split in two — locally, perhaps none more memorable than a tree in Pine Neck. The trunk practically burst open in the midst of the storm, splaying bits of bark in various directions only to reveal a hollow gap in the trunk's interior, where trio of baby raccoons had made their nest.
An image of one of the four-week-old cubs made the front page of The Express the week following the storm, its furry body dwarfed by thick slabs of wood and its characteristic black mask slanting downward, almost giving the creature a worried expression as it stared out at the photographer.
Without their home and with the loss of their mother — who couldn't be found after the tree collapsed — the creatures were destined for their demise.
Baby animals too young to survive on their own are often put in the care of local wildlife rehabilitators who volunteer their time nurturing them until they can safely be put back in the wild. It's standard protocol. But not for raccoons.
Along with skunks and bats, wildlife rehabilitators are prohibited from caring for raccoons by the Suffolk County branch of the New York State Health Department. Instead, skunks, bats and raccoons that are wounded or are not entirely self-sufficient must be destroyed because they are deemed rabies-vector animals. (According to Ginnie Frati, Executive Director of the Wildlife Rescue Center of the Hamptons, rabies is most common in these three animals, though it has not been reported in Suffolk County in the last few years.)
This would have been the case for these three cubs, had it not been for one fortunate coincidence.
As Irene gained momentum on the morning of August 28 and most East End residents were hunkered down in the comfort of their own homes, John (not his real name) was out driving around and taking pictures of the storm. That's when he came up roughly 15 people gathered around a tree on Elm Street in Pine Neck. And when someone told him the tree was home to three baby raccoons, he exclaimed, "That was like hitting the lottery!"
A member of the Wildlife Rescue Center's rescue team, he scooped them up in his grey, plastic rescue tub — which he always keeps in his car — and immediately took them home.
Even though it's illegal for Suffolk County residents to do so (which is why his real name is being withheld for this article), John said he couldn't help it.
"I grew up with raccoons, I had them as pets," he explained. "So when I saw them in the tree, I immediately went into action."
The cubs are now living in John's backyard somewhere in the greater Sag Harbor area. He says they follow him wherever he goes and to demonstrate, he places all three cubs in the grass. They immediately swirl around his feet — and when he begins to walk the trio trails behind his every step, prompting an impromptu game of follow-the-leader.
The raccoons are kept inside a lidded wooden crate originally built for storing firewood and most recently used to store scuba diving equipment — not because John is worried animals might run away, but to protect them from predators.
"A local male raccoon would kill these babies if it had the chance," he said. "Raccoons are very territorial."
So with a modest tree branch inside the box for décor, the raccoons' makeshift habitat is cleaned regularly and the creatures are fed a diet of liquid nutrition like Similac, baby food and the gravy from canned dog food. (The meatier pieces are put outside in the yard "for the local raccoons.") While John said it's taken the babies a while to transition into solid foods, he's finally at a point where he can begin serving hot-dog pieces and slices of watermelon.
"What I really should be doing is taking them to the cove and looking for crabs and clams," he said. With an appetite for local sea life, the hope is that the critters might be more inclined to avoid dumpster diving in the future. Although, John also pointed out, those efforts might be fruitless: "They just eat everything."
According to John, there are several people like him on the East End who harbor raccoons illegally.
"We do everything we can to get the babies back with their mother," said Ginnie Frati of the Wildlife Rescue Center. "But someone is really supposed to bring them to us for euthanasia."
Unfortunately, Frati continued, some East End residents will call trappers to get rid of raccoons, and often the animals are drowned. While other parts of New York State can issue rabies-vector-species licenses for wildlife rehabilitators, such licenses have been banned in Suffolk County since 2004.
"I've been fighting this for years," she continued, noting that there is a large population of raccoons on the East End. "In baby season we probably get about one to two calls a day. It's heartbreaking for us to take the calls."
As far as John is concerned, the rules in Suffolk County are a bit extreme. While raccoons have been known to carry rabies, he feels the animals have been unfairly singled out. Any number of animals can carry a whole host of diseases, he added.
"My neighbor believes rescuing animals is a waste of time, that it interferes with the course of nature," he continued. "And I understand that. But, I also believe that if it wasn't for us, we wouldn't have to be out here rescuing them."
John said most of the rescues he's gone on have been influenced by humans in one way or another, whether it's a deer that's been hit by a car or a squirrel that's ingested anti-freeze.
He plans to let the three raccoons go in November, if not sooner, when they're big enough to survive on their own. He plans to take them to a place that's relatively rural.
"I'll build a box for them and set it up with some food," he explained. "Then I'll get in my car and go… and try to just keep driving."

Action/Adventure, Suspense/Thriller
Known for providing their wealthy clients with whatever footage it takes to sell a product--even if it means kayaking over a 110-foot waterfall or dangling by a harness from a helicopter--advertising executive Jeffrey, director Ian and cameraman Will agree to make a seemingly impossible commercial for a new digital video camera. Their mission: to show three expert skiers outrunning an avalanche. Heading for the Austrian Alps with beautiful downhill gold medallist Chloe, wild-child snowboarder Kittie and 19-year-old overall daredevil Silo, the film crew sets up in an unfinished resort perched 12,000 feet atop a mountain in the Austrian Karawanken Range on the border of Yugoslavia. But they are not alone. Serbian war criminal Pavle, who recently faked his death in a plane crash, is hiding out with his exotic girlfriend Yana, his son Slavko and a gang of terrorists determined to complete their horrible mission--even if it means murdering anyone who gets in the way.

Fiscal 2013 will go down as a record-breaking year for tourism in Okaloosa County, but that doesn't mean everybody is pleased with how it went.
Okaloosa collected $13.52 million in bed taxes in fiscal 2013, which ran from October 2012 through September. That was a 2.65 percent increase from fiscal 2012's $13.17 million, which was a record at that time.
"I am happy with the increases, very definitely," said Joe Guidry, general manager of the Ramada Plaza Beach Resort and a member of the county's Tourist Development Council. "The thing that concerns me is that the counties both to the east and the west, their increases were much, much greater than this. We should have been at that level. That comes back to the TDC not being out there, the advertising not going on.
"I am pleased we are ahead," he added. "Are we anywhere close to where we should be? No we're not."
See Okaloosa County's bed tax numbers. >>
Okaloosa County's increase in bed tax revenue lagged behind Walton and Santa Rosa counties last year. Following the Mark Bellinger fraud scandal, the county temporarily stopped virtually all tourism marketing.
Despite the lack of promotion, many local businesses had strong years.
"We had a soft spring, but it was followed by a very good summer and a great fall," said Tracy McCraw, marketing director for AJ's Seafood and Oyster Bar in Destin. "If we had had the (Destin) Seafood Festival, we would probably be talking a banner fall. That would have made a huge difference."
Despite a record-breaking year, McCraw said the county still has a lot of growth potential in the shoulder seasons.
"If we could start focusing on those middle seasons, between spring and summer and between summer and fall, I think our area could find themselves to have record years every year," McCraw said.
Tom Rice, owner of the Magnolia Grill and the TDC's vice chairman, agrees.
"We've done in the summer just about as much as the cup will hold. But the wintertime, there are times in the September, October, November time frame it's beautiful here," Rice said. "The Christmas season and looking at those opportunities.
"We hope we can get the empty nesters who come in the fall," he added.
Guidry said the TDC must have some stability to really move forward. Dan O'Byrne, who replaced Bellinger as the TDC's executive director, resigned at the end of the October.
The board has narrowed the list of O'Byrne's potential successors down to 10 finalists, who will be interviewed by phone Tuesday. Guidry said he would like to have a TDC director in place by the middle of December.
"I am very optimistic," he said. "I think we are so well positioned to achieve some fantastic numbers in 2014. It's great that we were ahead this year, but the potential of where we can go is just breathtaking."
September tourism was icing on the cake for Walton, Santa Rosa counties
Tourism in Santa Rosa and Walton counties finished strong in September, with both counties posting double-digit increases in bed tax collections for the final month of fiscal 2013.
See Walton County's bed tax numbers. >>
Both counties already had set annual records for annual total bed tax collections after only 11 months of the year.
Santa Rosa County brought in $89,446 in bed tax revenue in September, an increase of 15.74 percent from September 2012, when it collected $77,283.
"Labor Day was nice," said Kate Wilkes, executive director of the county's Tourist Development Council. "I attribute (the increase) to the TDC doing some really good marketing and, of course, we had the sand sculpting contest in September. People love that and come back for it. The weather was great."
Santa Rosa County finished fiscal 2013 with $1.45 million in bed tax revenue, up 22 percent $1.19 million in fiscal 2012.
But even that means more work is ahead.
"You have to continue advertising. You always have to continue to get new people, but I think many more people know about us than before," Wilkes said. "We've become better known and the people who come here tend to come back."
Walton County collected $1.68 million in bed taxes in September, an increase of 12.61 percent from the $1.492 million collected in September 2012.
That brought the county's annual total to $18.59 million, a 12.71 percent increase over fiscal 2012's $16.49 million.
TDC director Jim Bagby said the total was slightly higher than he anticipated. While he expects tourism to continue to grow in the area, he said it will require work from all parties.
"We have to remember this is our second year in a row that we had double-digit increases," Bagby said. "We cannot sustain this forever, and we particularly cannot sustain it if we don't reinvest in the destination. That's not just us. That's the bed tax collectors. That's the homeowners. It takes all of us to make this destination perform like it's performed over the last year."

DATE: May 14, 2012
CONTACT: Cathy Mentzer, Manager of Media Relations
Phone: 717-264-4141, Ext. 3178
Email: email@example.com
Kelly, who will receive an honorary degree from the college, is only the second woman to ever serve as the Commonwealth's attorney general. She was nominated by Gov. Tom Corbett to succeed him as Pennsylvania's top law enforcement officer. Her term runs through 2013.
Kelly was a prosecutor for more than 30 years before becoming attorney general. She served as both an assistant district attorney in Allegheny County and as senior litigation counsel as Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania.
Kelly graduated from the Duquesne University School of Law and has a bachelor's degree in English from the University of Pittsburgh.
This year, approximately 107 students will receive bachelor's and associate degrees during Wilson's commencement ceremony, which will be held outside on the college's main green. (In case of rain, the ceremony will be held in Laird Hall.) In addition, 16 graduates of Wilson's Master of Education program will receive their degrees and another 73 certificates will be granted to college graduates who are completing the teacher intern program at Wilson.
During the commencement ceremony, Dr. Barbara L. Tenney, former Wilson College trustee, will be honored with trustee emerita status. Tenney, a medical doctor and 1967 graduate of Wilson, served on the board of trustees from 1996 to 2008 and was chair from 1999 to 2002. She served on numerous committees during her time on the board and was named an Everitt-Pomeroy Trustee in 2008.
Faculty emeriti status will be conferred on three Wilson professors who are retiring after many years of service: Dr. Beverly Ayers-Nachamkin, Dr. Abdolreza Banan and Dr. Virginia Anderson-Stojanovic. Emeriti status is the highest honor that can be bestowed on former faculty members and is reserved for those whose service has been extraordinary.
A baccalaureate service will be held at 10 a.m. in Alumnae Chapel at Thomson Hall.
For more information, contact Wilson College Manager of Media Relations Cathy Mentzer at 717-264-4141, Ext. 3178, or email@example.com.

Basically dwarfs have a business or something and their premises are referred to as a mine even if it's not really a mine. Thus Shatta is as much a mine as Mr/King Ironfounderson's literal mine is. The head of said mine is referred to as the King but he isn't literally a king and I doubt the position is in any way hereditary. I assume every mine has some grags among them and the King may very well be a grag himself. Since Deepdowners tend to own mines they tend to be Kings and the Low King is chosen from these dwarfs based on various things mentioned in 5th Elephant.

text: I had a some questions regarding the zig zag stitches along the quilts edge in this post. I zig zag the edges after I finish the quilting & squaring to prepare the edges for binding. It only takes a few minutes to do since I do a large zig zag, and it makes the edges so tight and neat while I'm sewing the binding on. I started doing it along time ago after Amber posted about serging the edges…and since I don't have a serger, the zig zag works just as well. Try it……you'll like it. :)

As part of the 2013 Aflac WorkForces Report, 105 respondents were employers based in Illinois, and 271 of respondents were employees working in Illinois; key findings are:
Thinking of my company's major medical/healthcare plans, we plan to implement the following in the coming year …
Which of the following benefits does your company offer?
Talent Attraction
56% of Illinois employees say they are at least somewhat likely to accept a job offer with slightly lower compensation, but better benefits.
85% of workers say a benefits package is at least somewhat important to their willingness to refer a friend to their organization.
Only 14% of workers in the Illinois say they are extremely satisfied with their overall benefits package.
When employees are offered voluntary insurance they are much more likely to say their current benefits package meets their needs extremely/very well (60%), compared to those not offered voluntary benefits options (45%).
Employee Well-being
35% of workers say their current benefits package only meets their family's needs somewhat, and 11% say their benefits package does not meet their needs.
When asked if they feel fully protected by their current insurance coverage, 49% of employees in Illinois say they only somewhat agree, and 19% say they strongly/completely disagree.
Nearly half of employees in Illinois (48%) are at least somewhat-to-extremely likely to look for a new job in the next 12 months.
41% of employees say that improving their benefits package is one thing their employer could do to keep them in their job.
80% of employees at least somewhat agree that a well-communicated benefits program would make them less likely to leave their jobs.
The 2013 Aflac WorkForces Report is the 3rd annual Aflac employee benefits study examining benefit trends and attitudes. The study, conducted by Research Now in January 2013, captures responses from 1,884 benefits decision-makers and 5,299 employees across the U.S. To learn more about the Aflac WorkForces Report, visit AflacWorkForcesReport.com.

When is best?
Check the study abroad you're interested in for specific policies or prerequisites, but many accept all students. Our CCI Florence students have ranged from sophomores to seniors.Eight things to consider in deciding when to go:
1. Most major courses are not offered abroad, so you'll have to take those here in Kent. If a course you need is offered only in the fall or spring semester, you might want to go abroad during the opposite semester so you don't miss it.
2. Advanced planning is your friend. You can plan semesters here for the courses you have to take in Kent, and set aside courses offered abroad for your semester abroad. This is much better than realizing at the last minute that a course you need isn't offered in Florence, and your dream of studying abroad will cost you an extra semester.
3. Advanced planning is still your friend. Share your plan with your academic advisor to get a second opinion in case you're overlooking something important.
4. Advanced planning never stops being your friend. Students within a year of graduation should see an academic advisor to make sure they are on track, that study abroad fits as expected, and that all graduation application materials are in order.
5. Waiting longer to go means more time to save money and apply for scholarships (equals more travel, more souvenirs, fewer loans…).
6. Some short study abroad courses have minimum prerequisites or may require junior or senior standing.
7. Although CCI Florence courses don't have minimum prerequisites or require junior or senior standing, some prior knowledge and skills can be helpful. For example, prior training in writing, photography, videography, or web design means you'll have more to contribute to the Florence Practicum course, and you'll likely get more out of it.
8. Students spending their final semester in Florence should know that the return flight is typically the day before commencement, so a delay for weather, etc., could cause a student to miss commencement. (It happened once.)

Apple iPad gets recreated in LEGO
Flickr user and LEGO genius jmenomeno has recreated the Apple iPad in colourful building bricks.
"I saw the presentation, and after a day or so, I was really curious about its size. So I went to the Apple site and found the dimensions, and decided to build a form study. The dimensions match as close as possible, and took a few hours of straight building", says jmenomeno of the project, more of which can be viewed online.
The to-scale LEGO version follows an option for jailbroken iPhone owners to recreate iPad looks on their iPhone. It's a while until the device will be available so what's next from those excitable Apple fanboys, we wonder? We will keep you posted.

Growing new skills at Lakes College
Last updated at 12:32, Tuesday, 19 February 2013
APPRENTICES from Lakes College were given a rare opportunity this month to work on the new Construction Skills Centre at Lillyhall.
The structure is being built on the Lakes College site in a project led by Cumbria County Council.
The roof and final external walls are now being put on, and the £7m project is on track for completion in April.
The building has been designed to be flexible and changeable to suit future needs, with internal walls that can be removed and repositioned to suit changes in what and how students will learn.
The centre will have teaching spaces and workshops for up to 600 students by September and will be run by Lakes College.
In January plumbing and electrical apprentices went on site and got to work on the building process.
Scores of trainees, studying through the college's construction and engineering-related courses, put their names forward to be a part of the process and leave their life-long mark on the skills centre.
Each week a handful of apprentices will be given the chance of working alongside industry professionals from Esh Construction, which was awarded the £5.5m building contract in January 2012.
Chris Moffatt, 19, is a level one plumbing apprentice who has worked for two days on the structure.
He said he was given the opportunity to work on the development after he was shown around by his course tutor and who then put his name forward.
The site manager then chose him for his potential and he began working alongside the 60-strong team from Esh.
He said: "I have fit in so much in the two days I have worked on site, it's unbelievable. I've really been involved by the team working on projects like the plant room where the boiler equipment is.
"There I've been helping to thread pipes into the system and tightening other pipe works and routes."
He said it has helped cement his learning that's usually done at college.
"I've thoroughly enjoyed it. Especially as I've been working so closely alongside the professionals, and it's given me the chance to ask plenty of questions."
Raymond Dockeray, 17, is a level two electrical apprentice chosen to work on site. He said: "I've been helping to fit wires and cables right through the building and it's been great to see how the professionals have got around certain issues that you don't usually come across as an apprentice in college.
"A lot of the work we've been getting involved with has been a big step up from what we're used to doing, so it's been great to get our teeth into a real project like this.
"We've had a lot of help from the team from Esh, who have given us some great advice along the way."
Raymond added that he will take away some invaluable skills from his time on site, including various techniques used to change cables.
Fellow electrical apprentice Stephen Show, 18, said: "I'm so pleased I put my name forward to come and work on site.
"It's been a great learning experience from start to finish.
"Working alongside the professionals on a real-life job has been priceless for us as you never get a chance like this to leave your mark on a building which will be here for years to come."
Sean Coin, project manager for Esh Group, said the apprentices have shown excellent initiative and skill in the short time they have been on site.
He said: "Spending time with our engineers has meant the apprentices have seen the work being done or have been guided through it, so it's been a great opportunity for them to really get their teeth into something.
"It's a fantastic modern building and there have been plenty of things for the apprentices to do during their time with us.
"There was a lot of interest from the apprentices to get involved and we've been amazed at their level of skill."
Lakes College deputy principal Karen Wilson said: "All the partners are delighted with the progress and developments happening on the Construction Skills Centre.
"Building work on the centre is on time and the exterior of the building is almost completed, work on the inside looks to start imminently so it will be exciting to see these advances taking place.
"The construction and energy industry in West Cumbria will benefit greatly because their future workers will be taught the highest and most up to date skills by the college and other providers in the area.
"An added bonus has been the opportunity for our current students to gain real-life work experience through placements with the contractors. The building itself has become a learning resource through this construction phase as much as it will be once completed."
Lakes College has provided the land which the Construction Skills Centre has been built on and £1m funding while Britain's Energy Coast Campus has invested £2m.
Britain's Energy Coast is investing £4m in the project from funding partner Nuclear Management Partners.

Hialeah, Florida
Hialeah is a city in Miami-Dade County, Florida, United States.
The city's name is most commonly attributed to Muskogee origin, "Haiyakpo" (prairie) and "hili" (pretty) combining in "Hialeah" to mean "pretty prairie". Alternatively, the word is of Seminole origin meaning "Upland Prairie". The city is located upon a large prairie between Biscayne Bay and the Everglades.
Hialeah is served by the Miami Metrorail at three stations: Okeechobee Station, Hialeah Station, and Tri-Rail Transfer Station. The Okeechobee and Hialeah stations serve primarily as park-and-ride commuter stations for Downtown Miami and Brickell commuters. The Tri-Rail Transfer Station allows easy connections to Tri-Rail to Miami International Airport and West Palm Beach.

Getting a flu shot this season may not only greatly lower your risk of influenza this year, it may also lower your risk of heart disease, a new review from Canada suggests.
Results show that people who received the flu vaccine were 50 percent less likely to experience a heart attack or stroke, and 40 percent less likely to die from one, compared with people in the unvaccinated control group.
The flu vaccine could be an important way to maintain heart health and ward off strokes and heart attacks, the researchers said. They presented their findings at a cardiovascular disease research meeting Monday in Toronto.
In the study, Dr. Jacob Udell, a cardiologist at Women's College Hospital and the University of Toronto, and colleagues looked at four previous studies involving a total of more than 3,000 people whose average age was 60 — some with previous heart disease, and some without such conditions. Participants in all the studies were randomly assigned to receive a flu vaccine, no vaccine or a placebo injection, and were tracked for the following year.
The findings suggest that "perhaps that the flu vaccine is a heart vaccine," Udell said.
While the reason for the link is not exactly clear, Udell said it may be that when people develop heart disease, some factor "tips them over the edge," such as plaque clogging arteries, or lower levels of oxygen as a result of the flu.
The flu vaccine may stop this "tipping" by preventing flu, or by actually breaking up plaque in the arteries. "Either one is very provocative, and it's important to drill down and get the answer," Udell said.

Pendo Elected to Prestigious American Law Institute
|Elizabeth Pendo, J.D.
Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and professor of law Elizabeth Pendo, J.D., was named a new member of the American Law Institute (ALI). The Institute is the leading independent organization in the United States that produces scholarly work to clarify, modernize and otherwise improve the law. Pendo is one of 43 new members, joining more than 4,300 lawyers, judges and law professors.
"I am thrilled to welcome these highly regarded and accomplished new members to The American Law Institute," said ALI President Roberta Cooper Ramo. "The Institute has been dedicated to clarifying and improving the law for nearly 90 years. Our mission of law reform remains extremely important in light of the challenges facing our country. I am sure our newest members will find their involvement in our work to be both professionally and personally rewarding, and I look forward to the new enthusiasm and perspectives they will bring to our activities."
Pendo joins SLU Law faculty member Miriam Cherry; professor emeritus Don King (who was elected to lifetime membership); and soon-to-be full-time faculty member Judge Michael Wolff as members of ALI on the SLU faculty.
"Becoming a part of such an esteemed group is a tremendous personal and professional honor," said Pendo. "I look forward to collaborating with and learning from the other members and sharing my insights and experiences with my colleagues and students."
According to ALI, characteristics of selected members must include high character and ability, high professional standing, and a serious interest in the work of the Institute combined with participation in ALI activities.
New members are elected three times per year by the Council or Executive Committee based on recommendations by the Membership Committee. The Committee is composed of five to seven members of the Council. To be considered by the Membership Committee, candidates must be nominated by an ALI member and seconded by two other members.
"This is a great recognition of Elizabeth's work in the areas of health and employment law and a shared joy for the School of Law," said Interim Dean Sandra Johnson.
Pendo joined the SLU Law faculty in 2008 after a year-long visit. She is a member of the Center for Health Law Studies and the William C. Wefel Center for Employment Law. Pendo teaches and writes in the areas of disability discrimination, health law and bioethics, employment discrimination law and civil procedure. Her scholarship focuses on the intersection of issues of disability, gender and race in health insurance, health care and employment. To read her full bio, click here.

We've heard from other sources that Microsoft is not where they want to be at this point in the pre-launch development of Durango. A reliable source—one who was not part of our reporting about the Respawn game—tells us that Microsoft is as much as six months behind in producing content for the new console, despite an expected late-2013 launch. Another tells us that Microsoft recently cancelled several internal next-gen projects because they were not coming together as hoped. These sources have told us that, comparatively, Sony is in better shape and further along with hardware and software development for PlayStation 4.
We'd also heard from an industry insider that Microsoft was aggressively trying to sign exclusive games for Durango. Given the lack of internal development at Microsoft—their internal studios, while talented, are outnumbered by those of Sony and Nintendo—and given some of the apparent recent stumbles and slowdowns internally, signing an exclusive Respawn-EA game would suit the Durango quite well.
This is just a trainwreck waiting to happen, I really hope all these rumours are false because its all Sony needs to start being complacent again.
Typical Microsoft though throwing money about to try and save themselves, its what they get for shutting a lot of their internal dev teams.

What to do if your new NXT kit is a missing part
7 comments:
- Brian Davis said...
Over the years, I've bought... a few ;-)... LEGO sets. On the very rare occassions that something has been missing (three, IMS), customer service has replaced it fast and with zero hassle. I once had a light sensor from the RCX die while I was teaching a class, and called up customer service about it. I told them honestly that the kit was more than a year old, but I thought I'd ask... and within two days, I had a new sensor in hand. Yep, the customer service, especially for a toy, is one of the strengths of LEGO as a buisness (again, IMO).

Yes, but the problem here in Australia is that Lego pulled the plug on Educational Experience (the only dealer that knew the products) last month. So all the technical support and knowledge they supplied to us teachers has gone and cannot be matched in any way by the remaining suppliers.
So when I went and bought my NXT sets I went to Dick Smith and got them for $309ea inc GST (they do the deal for schools in multiples) and bought the software/site licence and batteries from Moore Education.
Why pay >$460 plus software from the so called Lego Education suppliers when the same thing (except the battery) is cheaper in retail stores.
Shame, Lego, Shame!

I can absolutely back the impression voiced in the article. Once one of my (pretty old) RCX bricks just gave up working .. dead ... just sitting there and doing nothing at all any more. Although anyone used to modern capitalist market (including my own rational thinking) told me that it would be simply foolish to go for a a replacement for that, I filled out some formular on the LEGO customer pages, just for the sake of having tried...
Only few days later, I received a brand-new RCX brick, and for free! The only thing LEGO asked me to do was to send in the old one (bat that wasn't mandatory).
For truth to tell, I never would have expected that!
Great company.

My son got a new Lego set about a year ago that was missing a part and I am amazed at how nice the experience of getting a replacement was. One phone call with a very pleasant support rep was all it took. The woman had me describe the part and identify it in the instruction manual. I chatted with her about it, but I'd really like to get a look at the computer system that allowed her to so quickly find the exact part. Imagine the sheer number of unique parts in the Lego system...

Matthias: My RCX died not to long ago too, I think I'll contact LEGO about it.
Anyway, one of my US snesors just stopped working correctly and I contacted the costumer support and it took almost two weeks before I got the opportunity to send it in, now it has gone four whole weeks scince I sent it in and still have not got a new one! It is propably only because I am in Norway it is so slow, Noway is a slow and boring (well sometimes atleast) country. I hope I get a new US sensor soon so I can test if it works and how it works, the US pinging thing you know. :-)
- Mar 2, 2007, 7:37:00 AM
- Brian Davis said...
Andy, it could also be because parts like the US sensor are probably still in rather short supply, with the popularity of the NXT.

Youre propably right Brian.

INDEPENDENCE, Iowa - Residents and business owners in the Buchanan County city of Independence got a bit of good news Wednesday evening as they prepared for flooding.
The Wapsipinicon River, which bisects the community, is expected to crest at 15.6 feet Thursday evening. Earlier in the day on Wednesday, forecasts called for the river to crest at nearly 24 feet. The record high for the river at Independence was 22.35 feet, set in 1999.
The National Weather Service said the reason for the lower forecast is that water entered the Wapsipinicon River basin downstream from Independence.
Charlie McCardle, commission secretary for Buchanan County Emergency Management, said the storm that moved through Eastern Iowa Tuesday night into Wednesday morning dropped 4.5 to 6.1 inches of rain.
Dennis Prinsen lives in Manchester, but is a partner with Gosling & Company, which has an office on First Street in Independence. The office is several hundred feet from the river, but Prinsen and others were building a small sandbag wall around the business. It nearly flooded in 1999, Prinsen said.
"That time, it was right on our doorstep," Prinsen said.
For Dennis McGlaughlin, of Decorah, it's not if the two properties near the river his father owns will flood, but how much. McGlaughlin said his father is in a care center; so he and some friends are clearing out his home and the neighboring property.
"We're emptying the whole house," McGlaughlin said. "There was fish in the basement of the house last time."
McGlaughlin's friends, Michelle and Joel Dinger, of Independence, said they can recall flooding in 2011 that closed the bridges over the Wapsipinicon and shut down roads leading into the community. Highway 150 into Independence is already closed.
Michelle Dinger said when the roads close, Independence is essentially shut off until they reopen.
"You're not going anywhere," she said.
While the Dingers said they were only experiencing some minor flooding at their residence, they still were keeping an eye on the river levels. The couple lives on the other side of the river.
"We're going to have to be on the other side of the bridge or we're not going to get home," she said.
McCardle said no mandatory evacuations have been ordered, but residents are asked to keep an eye on the river. He also suggested that anyone new to the area since 1999 ask their neighbors about what to expect in terms of flooding in their neighborhood.
With no past experience to go on, McCardle said county officials will have to use their best judgment in responding to this historic flood.
"We have no guidelines to go on," he said.
