DW's name: Hope Cara Dawson
DH's name: Jack Thomas Dawson
Year of marriage: 2015
2016: (10) They get a kitten and a puppy! After a year of marriage Hope and Jack are still very much enjoying time with just the two of them, and don't yet feel ready to have a family, but they definitely feel as though their home is a bit lonely and could do with some extra love. They decide to get both a kitten and a puppy. The kitten is white and grey and named Molly, their dog is a husky cross named Odin.
2017: (1) A year after the new arrivals in the family, Hope and Jack decide to move into a new, bigger house. Their old house was starting to feel cramped, even with just the 2 of them and the pets, so they decide to move further into the country where they can afford a larger house, with a beautiful garden. It seems like the ideal home for starting a family in too. This is what it looks like:
2018: (10) After moving into the new house, Hope and Jack enjoy decorating it and making it feel like a proper home. They decide that the spare room would make a perfect nursery, and finally feel ready to have their first baby. After 3 months of trying, Hope becomes pregnant. 9 months later they have a beautiful baby boy named Tobias Jack Dawson "Toby".
2019: (1) When Toby is only 6 months old, their perfect home starts to feel not so perfect. The house needs a lot of work doing, and seems to be falling apart, and having Toby means neither Hope nor Jack have much time to spend fixing it up. With the help of Hope's parents, they buy a much newer built house that is in perfect condition. It looks like this:
2020: (2) Just before Toby's second birthday, Hope finds out she's pregnant again! They weren't trying, but are delighted by the surprise. They have plenty of room for another little one, and are excited to give Toby a sibling. 9 months later they have a little girl named Mabel Sophia Dawson.
2021: (5) When Mabel is 5 months, and Toby 3, Jack is offered a role at a very prestigious accountancy firm, the only catch is, that it's another city. Jack would be working full time and doesn't feel happy leaving the children back in another city with Hope, nor does he think it'd be feasible to travel between the two, even just for the weekends. So after much discussion, the family move to a new city; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. They're both upset to be moving house yet again, especially when the last house seemed so perfect for them, but Jack's career is very important to him, and Hope is very proud of him. This is their new house:
2022: (6) Hope and Jack are very settled in their new home and Jack is getting on well at work, whilst Hope is still a SAHM to 2 year old Mabel and 4 year old Toby. About once a week, Jack and Hope have a date night, where they get some much needed time together, whilst a local girl, 18 year old Hayley, looks after the kids for the evening. One night they return home to find Hayley in tears, Hope comforts her and asks her what's wrong, whilst Hayley confides in her that she found out she's pregnant. She immediately says she can't keep the baby and blurts out that she wishes the baby could stay with Hope and Jack, as she's seen what wonderful parents they are, and knows that she couldn't offer the baby a stable lifestyle. They have very serious conversations for months after this, including Hayley's parents, and everyone agrees that the baby would be best with Hope and Jack, as Hayley has big plans for college. Hope and Jack are shocked that Hayley really wants to give them her baby, but they're delighted she trusts them so much, and are thrilled to be able to give the baby a loving home, and Mabel and Toby another sibling. Hayley gives birth to a baby girl, and Hope and Jack welcome little Nancy Anabel Dawson into their family.
2023: (4) Nancy settles perfectly into the family, and Mabel and Toby love her to pieces. When she is 7 months old, the whole family go away for a few days to visit both Hope and Jack's parents. When they return Hope is very sick, putting it down to having eaten something bad whilst away, or just the stress of travelling, she tries to ignore it. But when she's still feeling just as bad, if not worse, even a week later, Jack forces her to go to the doctor. A test immediately confirms she's pregnant, but she never felt so ill with her other pregnancies! The doctors send her for an early scan, just to make sure everything is ok because of how ill she's been feeling. At 9 weeks pregnant, Hope finds out she is expecting twins! Jack and Hope are shocked, having twins with such a small baby around is definitely going to be hard work, but they feel very lucky to be having twins! Hope gives birth to twin boys named Max Oscar Dawson & Joel Leo Dawson.
2024: (8) Toby is now 6, Mabel 4, Nancy 2 and the twins are just 6 months, when Hope misses a period. She had been feeling very run down recently, but put that down to having 3 small children to take care of, but a home pregnancy test quickly confirms her suspicions. She's pregnant again! For once, Hope is actually quite scared to tell Jack, they already have 5 children and he's been stressed with work as it is, but she knows she can't hide it from him. But as soon as she tells him, her fears disappear, he doesn't even show a sign of disappointment and is ecstatic to be welcoming another little life into their family. Their first scan reveals that they're having not one, but two babies again! Although born 2 months early, they have 2 healthy baby girls, named Lola Lorelei Dawson & Josephine Iris Dawson "Effie".
2025: (6) One day whilst Jack is at work and Hope is at home with Nancy, Max, Joel, Lola & Effie, the phone rings, it's Hayley. Hope is immediately panicked by the desperation in Hayley's voice as she says that she needs to meet up with her. Hope wonders if she's wanting to meet Nancy and has a sinking feeling that she's going to tell her something crazy like she regrets ever giving up her baby girl. Hayley is back from college for the summer, so she and Hope arrange to meet up for a coffee when Jack is home from work to look after the kids. She can tell that Hayley has been crying the moment she sees her, Hope asks what's wrong and all Hayley says is "I need my baby to be with its big sister", "you're pregnant?!" questions Hope. Hayley nods and the tears begin streaming again. Hope is shocked and wants to ask Hayley how it happened, but feels perhaps Hayley won't want to talk about it whilst she's this distraught. Hayley opens up to her anyway, confiding that she met someone at college who she had an on-off relationship with for a couple of months, he was abusive and she's too scared to tell him she's pregnant. Hope and Jack talk, and agree to adopt Hayley's second baby. This time she has a boy, he looks just like Nancy, they name him Harry Casper Dawson.
2026: (10) Hope and Jack are sure they're done having children now that they have 8! When Harry turns one, they decide to have a big holiday and take the whole family travelling, along with the grandparents, for a month.

From my Forbes.com blog The New Persuaders:
Few people have seen the ups and downs of startups more up close and personally than Kevin Rose, partner at Google Ventures and cofounder of Digg, the social news site that could have been Reddit but faded and is now trying for a comeback under new owner Betaworks. In an interview at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference this morning in San Francisco, Rose talked about his relatively new role as a venture capitalist.
Among the highlights: He said that he has helped speed up the way Google makes investments, that Google isn't trying to lowball startups on valuations, and that he's avoiding copycat startups (um, not to be too impolite, but like those dozens of companies in the conference's demo hall?). Here's what else he's thinking about today, sometimes paraphrased:
Q: How has it been as a full-time venture capitalist?
A: I was doing angel investing for three or so years before joining Google Ventures. It was always a part-time thing, a casual investment every month or so. Now I'm seeing 10 or 15 companies a week. I always like seeing cool new ideas.
Q: Is it hard keeping them all straight?
A: Absolutely. I'm terrible at names.
Q: What's up with the apparent drama between Y Combinator and Google Ventures, where the former accused the latter of lowballing startups on valuation?
A: We're absolutely not going out there and trying to lowball companies. Some companies are worth $15 million and others are worth $6 million or $8 million. I'm closing three YC deals, all three we took the terms straight up. Another one, we just saw too much risk, so we didn't do the deal.
Q: A couple of companies I talked to said the due-diligence process is longer with Google Ventures.
A: I don't know that we're more strict about that. I took $200,000 from GV for my last startup, Milk. The diligence process was a little longer. But I've been working personally on streamlining that. We do $5 million to $10 million that absolutely take good due diligence, when you're investing that much. I think we're in a great place now.
I have nothing bad to say about Y Combinator. I'm investing in several of their companies. Nobody's mad at anyone.
Q: What YC companies have you invested in?
A: We just closed on BufferBox, kiosks for people to get packages at, like Wal-Mart stores.
Q: Are there certain kinds of companies you like?
A: I'd be lying if I said I have this grand vision. When I see a company that's really doing something disruptive, that gets my interest. I don't want to do a Pinterest for cats. I'm more of a surgical investor. The only way to do that is to pare down the total number of deals you do. I may do 10-12 deals a year, but they're companies I really believe in. …

In today's millennial-inspired economy, social media marketing is dead. I didn't say social media is dead — just the idea that social media marketing is the most effective approach to win over millennials.
Yes, millennials are heavy social media users and are 2.5 times more likely to adopt new digital, social and mobile tools. What drives social media activation for millennials, however, is content excellence.
Marketers are often pegged with questions related to the future of social media such as: Is Facebook still relevant? What's the next social platform? Which is most powerful — a like, a share, a re-tweet, or a favorite?
While these are all fair questions, attempting to grade the social landscape in this manner is counterproductive and missing the greater point.
Your approach to content is what will make or break your marketing communication efforts in the future. Social media is simply one way to activate your content strategy.
Re-imagine creative excellence within a content excellence framework
For more than 40 years, the great brands of yesterday were focused on creative excellence. They crafted the perfect message and then pushed those messages out via various shotgun methodologies, hoping to build brand awareness and regard for their cherished products.
Brand awareness and credibility alone will not correlate in any way to extraordinary and sustainable financial performance.
Think of content as an opportunity for your brand voice to live everywhere you are not. We used to think of advertising as a means of communicating a message to a certain audience. But traditional advertising messages are limited to their medium. People experience brands in fluid ways and we can no longer simply rely on creative advertising to make an impact. Content is about the message and the context.

well thats for people like you and me - but i know tons of people, either unskilled with mice or little disadvanted in sight that appreciate the little bigger control elements. especially with the big screens and high resolution nowadays control elements have to increase in size.
Trackpads and mice don't require large control elements. I'm sure if Microsoft wasn't trying to make Windows 8 a one-stop shop for both touch and mice, it'd still have smaller control elements as well.

King Osorkon I
Third Intermediate Period metalworkers often used gold inlays to embellish their sculptures. They first carved a channel that they filled with gold thread. Then they hammered the rounded edge of the gold until it was flush with the bronze. On this statuette, the names of Osorkon I, the images of the gods Re-Horakhty and Thoth, the belt, and the striations of the shendyt-kilt were all produced with gold inlay.

More of Forest Park disappearsBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | February 12,2013Anthony Edwards / Staff Photo
The intersection of Forest Street and Hickory Street is shown on Monday afternoon.The second phase of the Forest Park replacement project is targeted for completion by the end of the year.
Demolition started in December, and as of Monday, foundations had been poured for two of six buildings.
They should start framing in March, Rutland Housing Authority executive director Kevin Loso said. The weather has been cumbersome, but theyre pretty much on schedule for a November or December completion.
The RHA has been slowly replacing Forest Park with a new development called Hickory Street Apartments, named for the newly built Hickory Street, which runs perpendicular to Forest Street.
The development is designed to look more like a neighborhood, with even the larger, multi-unit buildings constructed to look like large houses.
Four buildings totaling 11 units and the old community center and maintenance shed came down and are being replaced by seven new buildings three duplexes, two six-unit buildings, a community center with five one-bedroom units and a new maintenance shed. The total cost for phase two is roughly $7 million, according to Loso.
Five buildings with a total of 27 units are all that remain of Forest Park. Those will be replaced in phase three.
At this point, the precise plan is not in place in terms of unit configurations, Loso said. We plan to embark on that in the next three years.
Phase one remains at 100 percent occupancy, Loso said.
Weve seen very little turnover, he said.
Meanwhile, the citys waiting list for Section 8 housing vouchers is about to open for the first time since July of 2011.
Its been open and closed and open and closed a few times, Loso said. It depends on the number of vouchers we have available.
Loso said 76 vouchers will become available March 1 because of a change in the status of the apartments of Regency Manor. Residents there will have priority for the vouchers, he said, but that not all would be eligible, meaning at least some of the 82 families on the waiting list will get a chance to move off it.
Loso said a family typically spends about two years on the waiting list.

Captions and Introduction by Steven RuppEditor's Note: Michael Copeland is General Motors' foremost authority on LS swaps into vintage iron. His title is Project Manager--Concept and Vehicle Integration, GM Performance Division. We are grateful to have him as a SUPER CHEVY contributor.
Since it first hit the automotive scene back in 1997, the venerable LS1 and its various incarnations have quickly become the go-to engines for EFI swap projects. While the LS platform hasn't surpassed the good old first-gen small-block in terms of how many old Chevys it's powering, it's certainly becoming more prevalent each year. Part of this growth is because the aftermarket industry is making it easier than ever to stuff this aluminum powerplant into any Chevy, or anything else for that matter.
Even as recently as five years ago it was a challenge to get an LS engine into old Detroit iron. Engine mounts had to be fabricated, and in some cases headers had to be custom bent to accommodate the engine's unique architecture. Guys have been retrofitting LT1s into cars for some time, so grafting in an EFI capable fuel system wasn't so bad, but it still required fabrication and creativity. Then there was getting the electronics in order. Programming software for the computers needed to run the LS1 were archaic by today's standards and finding people that knew their way around the code was tougher than finding out where Jimmy Hoffa is stashed.
But, as they say, "that was then and this is now." It's 2009 and getting LS power under the hood of your old Chevy is nearly painless. Where once parts needed to be whittled out of steel using a penknife, those parts are now just a phone call or web hit away. And where once the aftermarket only supported the first-gen Camaro it now caters to everything from Tri-Fives to Chevelles. Is it as easy as dropping in a carbed small-block? Not yet, but the benefits of all that EFI-fired goodness is worth the small amount of extra work, and cash, required to make it happen. There are even parts available to make these engines carbureted if that's your bag.
With the aftermarket making the swap easier, that leaves the other common complaint about LS swaps--cost. Can you empty your wallet and max your credit dropping in an LS engine? Hell yeah, but, like most things in life, how expensive it ultimately turns out to be is completely up to the guy holding the wrench. More people making more parts equates to more competition and that ultimately drives down the cost of parts. It also helps that the creative folks out there have had years to figure out how to do it cheaper. If you want that sweet drive system from March Performance or Concept One, but are short on funds, then, thanks to GM, you still have a plethora of LS drive systems lurking in scrap yards. Not as fancy as the billet baubles, but dirt cheap and quite capable of getting the job done.
It's the same story with all the other systems involved as well. Can't afford coated long tube headers yet? Easy: Make due with some factory exhaust manifolds. Whether you have enough cash to buy the best of the best or you're on a restrictive budget, dropping an LS engine into your ride is an attainable goal.
But even more important than parts or cash is knowledge. Since 1997 GM has released quite a few versions of the original LS1 and instituted a host of changes, some not so subtle. Since LS-based mills now reside under the hoods of so many different GM vehicles, it's imperative to know "what's what" in terms of items like oil pans, computer systems, and various other differences. Being well-versed in all things LS will keep you from making costly mistakes.
To get the 411 on LS swaps we went straight to the source, General Motors, and asked Michael Copeland what he felt was the most important info a gearhead would need to know when looking to tackle a swap. So read up on what's become the most successful engine ever put out by GM. After all, knowledge is power.

This week's cool temperatures and stiff winds are being credited for driving up traffic at many stores.
Merchants say the number of shoppers mid-week was more reminiscent of summer's high season in July than late March.
"It's been outrageous for this time of year," said Bob Perry, general manager at Destin Commons. "Monday and Tuesday was like a July traffic day. The theater did unbelievable."
While weather no doubt drew many visitors indoors, there were other contributing factors.
Okaloosa and Walton county students were on spring break, which left many families with a lot of free time. And Easter falls early this year, which sent some people shopping for holiday gifts and treats.
"Easter falling this week definitely helped pump it up," said Joey Cazenavette, executive team leader at Target in Mary Esther, who also compared this week's crowds to those of mid-summer.
Friday morning, Heather Powell of Fort Walton Beach pushed a shopping cart loaded with bags away from the register. She said she's a regular Target shopper who came out Friday to stock up on Easter treats for her sons.
On Wednesday her family went to Destin Commons, where they were so shocked by the number of people that they tried to figure out why it was so crowded.
"We literally came up with 'It's too darn cold to be at the beach. They've got to do something,' " she said.
While temperatures in the 40s might have been enough to keep locals off the beaches, it didn't stop everyone.
Jessica Levy of New Orleans was visiting with family and friends. On Wednesday, one of the coldest days, they all went to the beach, where they lasted three hours before seeking the heated water of the hotel pool.
"This is the coldest it's ever been when we come here," Levy said. "It's the first time I've ever walked on cold sand."
For Lisa Thomas of Foley, Ala., and her family of five, Destin Commons was the first destination on the first day of their vacation. They planned to shop first, have lunch and then head to the beach.
"They've been dying to swim," Thomas said.

Stark News Details
Gallery 6000 Opens the Atmoscapes ExhibitPosted Jul. 11, 2011
Kent State University at Stark is proud to host the Gallery 6000 exhibit, entitled Atmoscapes. Gallery 6000 is a collaboration between local artists and Kent State Stark, showcasing art of various media throughout the year. The exhibit, which is open to the public, is displayed in The University Center, 6000 Frank Avenue NW in Jackson Township.
The curator of Gallery 6000, Tom Wachunas, is an artist and adjunct instructor, teaching Art as a World Phenomenon at Kent State Stark. The exhibit will be on display from August 2 through October 21, 2011.
The Atmoscapes exhibit features five Stark County artists presenting their intriguing, poetic visions of realities, both natural and dreamlike. The artists are Lynn Digby, Carol McGill, David Grant Roth, Michele Waalkes and Michael Weiss. Most of the displayed pieces are for sale.
Kent State Stark will host an opening reception on Tuesday, Aug. 2 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Please RSVP to Rebecca DeHart at 330-244-3518 or email@example.com. The reception is free and open to the public. Representatives of the press are encouraged to attend.
Whether painting landscapes or seascapes, Digby's brushwork is remarkably facile and versatile. Her images effectively embody nature's luscious physicality, as well as its atmospheric elegance.
Often suggestive of distant, ethereal landscapes, the acrylic canvases by McGill are simple, yet powerful distillations, saturated with brilliant color.
The abstract color-field paintings by the late Roth are brilliantly subtle, liquid visions of luminescent, cloud-like forms.
Waalkes' photo-transfers of landscapes and architectural motifs on sheer, shimmering fibers are full of mystery and magic.
Equally magic-filled are the digital photographs by Weiss, often depicting surreal scenes that are both whimsical and compelling.
For more information on this exhibit or Gallery 6000 at Kent State Stark, contact Rebecca DeHart at 330-244-3518 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Kent State Stark features additional art exhibits in the campus galleries located in Main Hall's lower level and the Fine Arts Building.

Hundreds march against Yankee nuclear plantBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | March 31,2013Len Emery Photo
Led by the Expandable Brass Band, a crowd of more than 500 people marches down Main Street in Bratlteboro on Saturday as part of an event to protest the continued operation of the Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant.BRATTLEBORO More than 500 people marched down Main Street in Brattleboro on Saturday, carrying banners and pledging to end what they claimed was a year of illegal operation of the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant by Entergy Nuclear.
The exuberant gathering, bolstered by Vermonts famous Bread and Puppet Theater, chanted shut it down, Vermont Yankee, shut it down, now along the length of Main Street.
Several people from the street joined the parade, which occurred in the late afternoon on a sunny early-spring day.
Were here to mark one year of Entergy operating illegally, said organizer Chad Simmons of the SAGE Alliance. Were not going to let them operate any longer.
There were people in theatrical masks, dressed in suits and ties as corporate lawyers, with Bread and Puppets signature papier-mâché masks, proclaiming nuclear power is good. The lawyers carried whips.
They carried a sign that said Down with Vermont. and Business as Unusual.
Anti-nuclear groups have been stymied in the past year, as Entergy continued to operate, even without the states required certificate of public good. Hearings before the Public Service Board are currently pending.
No more leaks, lies and lawyers, more than one poster stated.
PSB has taken pains legally to point out Entergy is operating without the state permit, but it has allowed the company to keep operating the 640-megawatt reactor, which currently sells its output on the open market rather than directly to Vermont utilities.
The group later gathered at Latchis Theater for speeches, political theater and skits.
The group made the most of the lack of a state permit, saying Entergy could not be trusted to keep its word and was violating promises it made in 2002 when it bought Vermont Yankee from a group of New England utilities.
The Vocal Chordz Affinity Group, a local anti-nuclear singing group, entertained the gathering with The 12 Lies of Entergy, sung to the tune of the 12 Days of Christmas. The group borrowed 10 of the 12 lies from Gov. Peter Shumlin, who first made the list during a public speech in Brattleboro a year ago.
Singing in chorus, the group chimed in on Well always obey Vermont law.
Sen. Jeannette White, D-Windham, who introduced Act 160, the Vermont law that gave the Legislature power over the future operation of Yankee and which was set aside by a federal judge last year as unconstitutional, addressed the gathering.
White said former Gov. James Douglas supported Act 160 and so did Entergy at the time it was passed and signed into law by Douglas.
No one thought at that time that Vermont legislators would vote against Yankees continued operation, White said, except for you.
Opponents of Yankee argue that the 41-year-old plant, one of the smallest reactors in the country, is old and full of problems. Yankee is currently shut down for refueling, and in the past two weeks several problems had occurred during maintenance work at the Vernon reactor.
The rally and parade, titled Leaks, Lies and Lawyers, was sponsored by the SAGE Alliance, a group of anti-nuclear groups from Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
Organizers Bob Bady and Leslie Sullivan Sachs said they were thrilled with the turnout, especially since it fell on a holiday weekend.
An Entergy spokesman said Friday the company was aware of the event but did not plan to watch.

Title financial loans have often been utilized for urgent bills-electric, grocery store or phone bills, college fees and many other costs. Car Title Loans Hollywood happen to be the top option with regard to such bills due to the fast application for the loan and approval. As the saying goes, much more emergency circumstances, people need urgent options.
This type of financial loan gives people just that-urgent treatment for their problems. Individuals can conveniently make application for a car title financial loan online. They simply need to get on the web, find the lending firm of their choice as well as fill out the license application form provided. It really is as easy as which. They no longer require through paper functions and line up all day. Their application for the loan is one disappear.
Besides the fact that vehicle title lending firms offer simple application, they also provide the fastest way to acquire the money. Once application continues to be submitted, you need to expect quick online authorization as well. You will get your loans in one day or maybe more. In some instances, you will get the money you will need within 24 hours-that's just one day! You are able to immediately pay your expenses once the money continues to be transferred to your accounts or once you are prepared to get it. You may be problem-free very quickly!
Irrevocably, vehicle title loans have been an excellent substitute for individuals who need money and are not able to get the counsel they need from these types of banks. It has additionally given people the chance to address their demands in the easiest as well as fastest way possible. Finally, loan seekers would no more keep on seeking simply because they have finally found the way they are looking for along with car title financial loans.
There are many means by what type can take financing. A car name loan is one of these. This can be a widely familiar procedure by which the loan is actually taken in exchange from the car's name. This is feasible as anyone who has the title of a car offers full ownership of that vehicle. The owner can now be allowed to make use of the title as collateral for his or her loans. Which means that the owner offers handed his or her vehicle ownership to the finance company?
This case will not be an underlying cause for alarm if completed with credible and reliable businesses. Even if you took out a car name loan, there will still be it to hand and you may still drive this if it is nevertheless your car. Take notice, though, this is only possible in case you are regularly paying your own dues. Otherwise, the company might take possession of your vehicle.
Having a title loan can also be risky and not recommended if the transaction is made from a company you have no trust along with. You need to be conscious of the fact that you might be giving full ownership of the property to them which means you have to ensure that they do not run away by using it at some time.

After Anonymous posted sensitive credentials of over 4,600 banking executives to a government Web site on Super Bowl Sunday, the Federal Reserve acknowledged the attack in a Tuesday morning statement to affected individuals and press.
However, while a spokesperson from the Federal Reserve told The Huffington Post that Anonymous' claim to the hack's importance was "overstated," information security professionals that serve financial institutions are saying the exact opposite—and are not best pleased with the Federal Reserve.
ZDNet has now learned that the compromised and exposed database belongs to The St. Louis Fed Emergency Communications System.

Wow! Seems like Anonymous is doing some damage
While I definitely don't hold much sympathy for bankers or the Federal Reserve, I have to ask how this hack relates to "the reform of computer laws" or investigation into Aaron Swartz's prosecution. Seems like this is more related to Occupy-type protest.

FORT WALTON BEACH – Soaking wet, Emma Rudman barely reaches triple digits on the weight scale.
And at a modest, 5-feet-2-inches tall, the Fort Walton Beach freshman's frame screams anything but imposing.
But punctuated by contoured muscles and a jutting bone structure, Rudman somehow manages to pull off the long and lean look.
It's a look the long-distance running community has come to know well. And it's a look that represents the future of the sport in the Daily News' coverage area.
She certainly has the medals to back that claim up.
In November, Rudman shed the confines of her freshman label to finish 10th at the 3A Cross Country Championship. Her time of 18 minutes, 42.68 seconds was not only the best showing among the 27 freshman in the field, besting the nearest ninth-grader by 35.99 seconds, it was good enough to help lead the Vikings to a program-best second-place finish at state.
Added up, the two medals set her up to be named Daily News Girls Cross Country Co-Runner of the Year, which for any freshman would cap off a banner year.
But Rudman is no ordinary freshman. She had a new path to blaze, swapping the rough trails of cross country for the smooth terrain of the track.
The switch proved seamless, Rudman not skipping a beat from the rigors of 5K running to the challenges of navigating the 3,200- and 1,600-meter races. That much was evident on May 3 in the 3A Track and Field Championship, where Rudman fought through blustery condi-tions to finish with a pair of sixth-place medals.
But when you factor in the circumstances surrounding the 15-year-old's dual-medal effort, the already impressive feat reaches new heights.
"It wasn't just about me. I wanted to represent the school well"
If the pressures of competing as a freshman weren't enough, Rudman also faced the daunting, uphill climb of representing an entire school.
The only Viking to make the state cut, Rudman entered the showcase just as determined to run for the name on the front of her jersey as herself.
"I was actually kind of sad because I was hoping some of my teammates would be able to go along with me," said Rudman, who was voted to be a team leader in cross country next year. "... It was a little bit lonely."
Life in the fast line can sometimes be just that: lonely.
But in solidarity accomplishments are amplified, the spotlight a brighter shade.
And as we've come to learn about Rudman, prep's biggest stage brings out the best in her.
Knowing her times – along with every other competitor in the fields – would suffer due to the conditions, conditions Rudman called "rainy, windy, miserable and cold, just unrelenting," Rudman focused solely on her competitors.
"I realized that my times wouldn't be very good, so I tried to aim more for place," she said.
Crediting her kick down the straightaway in both races, Rudman met and then exceeded her expectations with a sixth-place time 5:17.58 in the mile and sixth-place showing of 11:29 in the two mile.
But paired with her school loyalty, the feat took on added meaning when considering the context of the field.
For one, Rudman was one of five runners to compete in both the mile and two-mile events, races that were separated by just an hour and a half.
"I was just exhausted," said Rudman, whose said her goal next year is to run under 11 minutes in the two mile and break 5 minutes in the mile. "I was soaked and it was miserable because it just didn't stop raining. The wind … on one side of the track you could barely run it was so windy. But the two-mile was especially hard because it was eight laps after I had already ran the mile."
And of the five runners to spread their talents thin across the pair of races, Rudman was the only freshman. For comparison, three of the aforementioned quartet were upperclassman. And the other was a sophomore who finished outside the top 10 in both events. Not only that, but she was the only freshman to medal in either race.
"Freshman or not, my goal was to medal – which is top eight – and I finished sixth twice," Rudman said. "I was happy."
Shrine for her hardware
The two medals collected at the state meet have found a good home: Right next to her pair of cross country medals in her room.
The mini shrine doesn't include the dozens of medals she's acquired through swimming – yes, she is a three-sport standout – and smaller long-distance races that occupy a different portion of her room, but next to the cross country medals is her front-page photo spread com-memorating her Cross Country Female Runner of the year award.
And those photos are soon to have company. Rudman is, after all, the Daily News Female Track Athlete of the Year.
This time, however, she won't have to share the honor.
"It's a little different," Rudman said about being the sole winner. "I liked sharing it with Ivy (Chastain). But with this one, it's almost more honorable because I placed higher in state track than I did at state cross country. With cross country I didn't know what to expect because it was my freshman year and I had never run in high school before. So with track, the goals were more focused, less broad."
Just one of three girls to medal in the area alongside Paxton's Brooklyn Welch and Baker's Cassidy Anderson, Rudman was the shoo-in to be awarded the honor.
"It feels really good, especially since it's my freshman year," Rudman said of an accolade that had caught her attention in the winter. "Af-ter I was co-runner of the year for cross country, I was like, 'Oh, maybe that should be a goal of mine, to be runner of the year for track.' "
The quote perfectly reflects the sky's-the-limit-nature of her confidence, a confidence that draws comparison to a famous scene in Adam Sandler's "Happy Gilmore." In the sequence, Gilmore, like Rudman, has yet to tap his full potential in his respective sport, golf. So when he hits a hole-in-one on a par-4, he looks to his swing coach and says," I should just try to get the ball in one shot every time."
For the unassuming, that innocence could be mistaken for an arrogance. But that assessment couldn't be further from the truth for the confident freshman, who eats the average caloric content of three teenagers to ensure her body's operating at 100 percent.
"I have a really high metabolism, so I eat a lot"
Ask any teenager to rattle off their favorite foods, and atop the list will be a who's who of junk food choices: Pizza, cheeseburgers, nachos, chicken fingers, french fries, etc.
But to Rudman, food isn't viewed through the drive-through lenses of consumer-minded teenagers.
Instead, it's looked upon as fuel.
So how much fuel does it take the 107-pound Rudman to keep racking up the miles daily in the swimming and track lanes?
"I eat anywhere from five to 6,000 calories a day," she said.
Come again?
"I love food," she said.
To be more specific, Rudman loves pasta (chicken alfredo, marinara-based or just dressed with butter and salt), sharp cheddar, peanut butter by the spoonful, yogurt, watermelon, bananas, energy bars (Snickers Marathon/Clif kid/PowerBar) and steak, but only if it's prepared by her dad. Drink-wise, Rudman ditches soda and hydrates through Gatorade's lemon line and cool blue flavors, water and pink lemonade.
"I'm always eating and I make sure to hydrate well. I have a really high metabolism, so I eat a lot," said Rudman, who truly has no offseason.
A well-oiled machine … 24/7
The future of a few Viking programs, Rudman isn't afforded much time off. When she's not training on the track, she's in the swim lanes logging miles for the Vikings varsity team or Coast Aquatics, a year-round, competitive swimming team. And when she's not in the swim lanes, she's logging 5ks t prepare for cross country.
"They're very complimentary," Rudman said before pausing, "but they take up a lot of my time."
So how does she walk that fine line of not spreading herself too thin?
"I make sure I get enough sleep – I usually get eight hours every night – so I make sure I can be the best I can be by taking care of my body," she said. "I make sure I don't get exhausted."
That also means making room for a lazy Sunday.
"My mom is very good about it, making sure I have one day off," Rudman said. "So Sundays, I don't do anything at all. I'll just sit and do my homework and take it easy."
But the six-day-a-week regimen may become more focused in the future. Whether it is down the road as an upperclassman or as early as this summer, Rudman understands she'll have to eventually make a choice on where to focus her talents.
Either that or she'll just combine the sports.
"Right now I'm not going to decide because it's working to do both running and swimming, but if I can't decide a lot of people have offered to help me get ready for triathlons," she said. "I just need to learn how to competitively bike. I think triathlons would be fun because I can combine all of the running and swimming I do, and they could compliment each other and I could show it in one big race."

MakerBot in LEGO... now if it would just clean up after itself
I wonder how far you could take this. A long time ago (OK, 2005), Ian Hendry of rtlToronto built an automated duck assembly robot that was really amazing. It only built one thing (LEGO ducks... but nice cute ones), but did it from raw pieces, not pre-built sub assemblies, and did it with a single RCX. More recently there was the automated car assembly robot, but it was huge and worked with pre-built assemblies. And there have been some similar creations over in Europe, involving tables-worth of LEGO and days to set up.
But here, it's reachable with a much more modest investment in hardware, and at the same time is much more flexible - given it a digital build file, and it gives you a real LEGO brick-built model. Fantastic implementation... and perhaps opening up some new doors for future variations? One can hope.

Fantastic! I'm looking forward to inspect that in detail at the LEGOWORLD!

Quite strange enough there will be another robot like this at LW!
( Search for Dryw Filtiarn on the web... )
In my opinion the one I mentioned looks better, but the idea behind it is the same.
Is this a question of copy and paste?

Make sure to stop by at my creation at LegoWorld, and you will see the next step of this :) Autonomous model building based on LDD models.

Amazing machine. wow.

Fascinating, but after the challenge of building such a robot, I would think it would take the fun out of building models with it – the joy of LEGO® building comes from the hands-on (a sort of therapy – smile). However, if you needed to build a lot of LEGO® models for a big project, it sure would go easy on the fingers! Say, I wonder which is faster, the human builder or Makerbot???

Say, you know how he made an MLCad model of the robot itself?

As right-thinking, fragrant-smelling TopGearists, you'll inevitably spend a lot of your time musing over life's big questions. Cats. They're clearly playing a long game, but what is it? Deep pan or thin and crispy? And are cosy homesteads and petrol stations mutually exclusive?
Would you live in a house like this?
Buy a Grade II listed Art Deco ex-petrol station flat for £285,000
Today, we have an answer. No. They are not. As evidenced by this Grade II listed Art Deco petrol station in Rye, East Sussex. The rundown Manor Road Garage site was redeveloped in period style and turned into eight luggzury flats, featuring the original glass-domed Shell petrol pumps.
There's only one left in the development, and it has two bedrooms with a shower room, curved glass feature wall in the kitchen, south-facing terrace, and a parking space. Yours for £285,000.

The convenience of an umbrella meets the control of a softbox. Built on an umbrella frame, the Apollo light modifiers set up in seconds. No additional parts and pieces to lug around as these units simply open up just like an umbrella and set up in seconds making them perfect for any on-location photographer. While most softboxes require expensive and heavy adapter rings to properly set up, these units simply fit into the umbrella receptacle found on virtually all style studio lights.
This mono version comes with an additional mounting arm allowing for access to mono light controls. (With the standard "non mono" version SKU 2334, the light head is fully enclosed inside of the Apollo light modifier). This Apollo modifier fits virtually all style studio lights. As an added bonus, a speedlite can be used with this unit through an optional 5015 Adjustable Shoe Mount Bracket and 9908 Light Stand.
A perfect main light or fill light, this unit measures 28" x 28" and provides 104-degrees of light spread allowing control of where exactly the light falls. Face the light forward through the white diffusion front for specular highlights. Specular highlights will provide a "hot spot" on your subject with a greater fall off from highlights to shadows. Diffusion fabrics are pure in color so the color temperature going into the fabric is the same color temperature coming back out. The large recessed edge provides even greater light control allowing feathering of light to see exactly where the light is starting and stopping.
The frame is constructed using fiberglass components, no metal or plastic to break.

Chelsea's parents return for annual run
San Diego Brent, Kelly King and their son Tyler are back in San Diego this weekend preparing for the third annual Finish Chelsea's Run, an event they wish had never been needed but one that fills them with love for the community.
More than 5,500 people are expected to participate Saturday at Balboa Park. The event began about a month after the Kings' daughter, Chelsea, was abducted, raped and murdered by a convicted sexual predator the afternoon of Feb. 25, 2010. Chelsea, 17, who competed in cross country at Poway High, had been out for run at Rancho Bernardo Community Park School when she was attacked.
About 3,500 people showed up at that park to finish Chelsea's run on March 20 that year. Last year, the event was moved to Balboa Park to accommodate the growing crowds.
Proceeds from the event go toward Chelsea's Light Foundation, which awards scholarships to San Diego County teens, and to help spread key elements of Chelsea's Law to other states.
On Thursday the Kings, who now live in Illinois, met with U-T San Diego. They said returning to the area is both wonderful and difficult.
"We got in town late last night, 10:15, 10:30, and Ty and I were hungry," Brent King said. They went to a restaurant, and the waitress noticed the orange Chelseas's Light Foundation band around Brent's left wrist.
She asked if he was Chelsea's dad.
"She told me she was coming to the race with her two daughters. Her husband searched for Chelsea." (Thousands looked for her during the five days separating her disappearance and the discovery of her remains by the Lake Hodges shore.)
"How do you say thank you to that?" Brent asked. "This is how we do it. The way the community embraced us and continues to embrace us. ... It fills us back up."
"It's almost like a partial life-sustaining force that we only get when we come back out here," Kelly added. "We take that, and it carries us a long way."
But it is still difficult. Brent King said he still can't make himself drive over the Lake Hodges bridge.
On Monday, he posted a statement on the third anniversary of his daughter's death. To some it seemed chilling, but the couple said it's just the truth they live with every day.
"People often say that time heals all wounds," Brent wrote. "They are wrong. You learn to live with the wound, but it never heals. It has been 3 years since I have heard her voice, smelled her scent, or felt her hug. The coward that shattered our world will someday rot in hell. Until then he is locked away forever without the possibility of parole. He should have never been released in the first place to harm Amber or Chelsea. With the law we passed in California, we have insured that it won't happen again. We need this law in every state, and can only do it with your voice. ..."
Neither Brent nor Kelly ever say the name of their daughter's killer.

Earth's fiery birth begins with flames and fireworks erupting from the lagoon. Beneath a swarm of heavenly explosions, red and golden lights blaze on the shimmering waters. As the volcanic effects subside, a glowing globe glides peacefully across the waters.
Part Two: The Triumph of Life
Our individual stories culminate in one adventurous tale. The illuminated surface of the globe reveals the history of humanity and the achievements of our time.
Part Three: Hope for the Future
Comets of light race into the sky, before the globe blossoms like a lotus flower, revealing a torch ablaze with our dreams. A chorus of voices rises as the entire lagoon dances with bursts of joyous white light.
All kinds of extraordinary technology and talent went into producing this spectacle. While watching the show, you'll see and hear:
As early as 30 days in advance, you can secure a time for this or other attractions that offer FastPass+ service. And with a Walt Disney World Resort hotel reservation and valid theme park admission, make selections up to 60 days before your check-in date.
Plan Ahead for Best Selection
To have a greater variety of options to choose from, we suggest you make FastPass+ selections early. If you prefer to be spontaneous, there are ample alternate viewing areas that allow you to choose as you go.
If you like this kind of experience, be sure to check out similar entertainment in Epcot.
Valid theme park admission required. FastPass+ attractions and entertainment experiences, the number of selections you can make and available arrival windows are limited. Certain MyMagic+ features and benefits require online registration.

View the show anywhere throughout Epcot that offers a clear view of the World Showcase Lagoon. Since this is an outdoor show, it is subject to cancellation due to inclement weather. Entertainment is subject to change.
Reminder: this is not a reservation.

Naturalization Records
Naturalization records in Oregon are found in the court records of the county where the documents were filed. These records are either found at the Oregon State Archives or with the County Clerk or Trial Court Administrator for that county. Naturalization information may also be found in County Court Journals, County Court Case Files, Circuit Court Journals, Circuit Court Case Files, Probate Records and the Miscellaneous Records. However, extensive research may be necessary in order to locate naturalization records interfiled within these record series.
Following is information regarding common series of naturalization records, a list of naturalization records in the Oregon State Archives, information regarding naturalization records maintained by the federal courts and Immigration and Naturalization Service, and useful resources for naturalization research.
Most of the hyperlinks in the naturalization records list are included in the searchable Oregon Historical Records Index on this site.

Common Types of Naturalization Records
Certificate of Arrival: No alien who arrived in the United States after 29 June 1906, could make a valid Declaration of Intention until it was established that his entry was lawful and that he was admitted for permanent residence. If the alien established that his entry was lawful, then a Certificate of Arrival was issued. This Certificate showed the date, place and manner of the aliens' arrival. Any alien that established that he entered the United States on or before 29 June 1906, could file a Declaration of Intention without the issuance of a Certificate of Arrival. In Oregon, this certificate is part of the Declaration of Intention.
Declaration of Intention: Any person 18 years of age or over who was lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence could file a Declaration of Intention in the office of any clerk of court having charge of naturalization. No period of residence in the United States was required before filing a Declaration of Intention. This form was initially issued by the United States Department of Commerce; and after 1926, it was issued by the United States Department of Labor. Its form number was #2202. The form was also used for and titled Certificate of Arrival. It carries the following information: name, age, occupation, color, complexion, height, weight, color of hair, color of eyes, distinctive marks, place and date of birth, current residence, port of departure and vessel, last foreign residence, port and date of arrival in the United States, date of declaration.
Petition for Naturalization (Petition for Citizenship): When the Declaration of Intention was at least two years old and not more than seven years old, and the applicant had lived in the United States, its Territory, or the District of Columbia for five years continuously, with the previous six months in a particular state, then the alien could file a Petition for Naturalization.
A hearing was then held to determine if all documents were in order, and if educational and other requirements had been met. Two witnesses were required to support the petition. The witnesses had to be United States citizens over 21 years of age. They had to testify as to the applicant's good moral character for the past sixth month period. In addition, witnesses were required to support the fact that the applicant had been a United States resident for the preceding five years.
Before 1938, this form was titled "Petition for Citizenship." After 1938, this form was entitled "Petition for Naturalization." The documents usually contain the following information: name, residence, occupation, date & place of birth, date and port of departure, name of transport, date and port of arrival, date and place of declaration of intent, affidavits of witnesses. After about 1915, this record also included name, date & place of birth, and residence of wife and minor children.
Oath of Allegiance: If the Court was satisfied that all requirements of the law had been satisfied, then the alien could take the Oath of Allegiance. This required the applicant to swear to defend the United States and be loyal. The alien had to give up all allegiance to his former country and to also give up any titles of nobility.
Record of Naturalization (Certificate of Citizenship): This record was created during the years ca. 1867-1941. It contained the following information: name, date, term of court, name of naturalized aliens, and their former nationality.
Certificate of Naturalization (Stubs): This type of record appears to have been created during the period ca. 1907-1929. The series contained the following information: name, age, record of declaration of intent, record of petition, name of wife and minor children.
Petition and Record (of Citizenship or Naturalization): This series title contains a combination of the Petition for Naturalization (Form 2204), the Declaration of Intention (Form 2203), and usually a copy of the Certificate of Arrival.

Chief coroner to chair mill inquest
B.C. Chief Coroner Lisa Lapointe will personally preside over an inquest into the 2012 deaths of two employees and the injury of 20 more in an explosion at a sawmill in Burns Lake.
Lapointe said Monday a coroner's inquest is the best way to examine evidence that wasn't considered because prosecutors decided not to lay charges. That evidence can be considered at an inquest because its role is to make recommendations, not to assess blame.
"In particular, the inquest will review policies, practices and responsibilities related to the mill operation and worker safety, and will allow an opportunity for full and frank review of the mill's operation and all of the events leading to the tragedy," Lapointe said.
The inquest is expected to take place this fall in Burns Lake.

Spring is right around the corner, so it will soon be time to throw open your windows and replace your home's musty winter air with fresh. Unless you're suffering from spring's worst allergy season ever, and have to close up to keep the pollen and spores and such out of the house. Or if rain, storms, and other bad weather are plaguing your part of the country and you need your windows to stay shut. But before you reach for that artificially scented bottle of "Hawaiian Aloha," which likely contains dozens of air pollutants, you can find much healthier air-freshening alternatives. And most of them are available in unexpected places, such as your liquor cabinet, or your garbage can...or even on you.
Try one of these six weird air fresheners next time your house starts to smell a little funky:
#1: Vodka. Ethyl alcohol, found in vodka and other spirits, is a main ingredient in most commercial air fresheners. But cleaning your air with vodka allows you to get rid of musty odors without saturating the air (or your lungs) with added chemicals, like petroleum-derived propellants and harmful synthetic fragrances. Vodka leaves no odor as it dries, so you can spray it straight into your air as is, or add 20 to 30 drops of your favorite essential oils for a pleasant scent.
#2: Cat Litter. Have a smelly closet or musty basement? Set out a tray of cat litter, specifically, Jonny Cat Litter brand, recommends Joey Green of Joey Green's Cleaning Magic (Rodale, 2010). One primary reason that brand works so well has to do with the fact that the main ingredient is diatomaceous earth, a naturally occurring mineral that, among its many wonders, absorbs odors (it also absorbs moisture in the air, and kills pests that come in contact with it). So if you can't find any Jonny Cat Litter, buy a box of diatomaceous earth and set a few bowls out in the corners of smelly rooms. You can find it online from garden supply stores, such as Planet Natural.
#3: Coffee Grounds. Who doesn't love the smell of coffee? According to Green, it's another weird odor remover that helps cut the smell of winter mustiness. You can use fresh or used grounds, but if going with used, let them dry out a bit first. Place them in a bowl as is wherever you need an odor removed, or wrap them up in a coffee filter or old stocking and hang them in a closet or from a shelf. If you're not a coffee drinker, you can still benefit. Some Starbucks (and many small locally owned cafes) give their used coffee grounds away for free.
#4: A Palm Tree. We're not talking about palm trees at the beach (though a beach vacation is a good way to get away from dirty indoor air). Palm trees used as houseplants are very effective air purifiers, known to remove formaldehyde, which lurks in paints, furniture finishes, and the glues used to hold pressed wood and particle board together. You'll get similar benefits from a variety of other houseplants, but palm trees are among the easiest to care for. Look for Dwarf date, bamboo, areca, lady, or parlor palm varieties.
#5: Your Skin. Thanks to all the oils in your skin, dead skin flakes act like natural air purifiers, say researchers from Denmark. According to their study, published in the most recent issue of Environmental Science & Technology, one of the most common oils in skin, squalene, reduces levels of the indoor air pollutant ozone, a respiratory irritant that can trigger asthma attacks. After comparing levels of ozone in a day-care center's indoor air with the amount of squalene from skin flakes in its dust, the researchers determined that dead skin flakes can reduce ozone levels anywhere from 2 to 15 percent. Even we aren't sure how to best make use of this information, so please don't go around leaving skin flakes everywhere. But isn't it nice to know your very presence can make the air fresher? Also, ewwwww.
#6: Elbow Grease. Ultimately, the best way to deal with smelly or chemical-laden indoor air is to go straight to the source. It's easier to eliminate an odor's cause than to try to cover it up with coffee grinds or cat litter. And indoor air pollutants that collect in dust can be trapped by a good vacuum and weekly dusting with a damp cloth. To prevent further polluting your indoor air, make your own green cleaning kit with white vinegar, lemon juice, baking soda, and borax, all of which are also natural odor removers.
