I would give this to my wife as a gift, that way she could setup her iPad on the stand, for when she is in the kitchen or elsewhere doing stuff, and wants to have the iPad handy, but can't just set it down.
Review + Giveaway: Choiix Wave Stand for iPad
The Choiix Wave Stand for iPad is an aluminum holder that will work for any tablet. It's beautiful looking -- almost Apple-esque -- well-made, sturdy, and inexpensive, what's not to love?
The Wave Stand has lots of nice touches like rubberized feet to keep it in place even when you're tapping, typing and prodding at your iPad. The back of the stand is also rubberized and grooved to keep your iPad from slipping down or out. You can easily adjust angles and because it's strong, it stays right where you want it. You can use it with your iPad in either portrait or landscape mode, though in landscape mode pushing the iPad home button does make it wiggle a bit. (You can use your iOS 5 multitasking gestures to get around that.)
I've been using it all the time and I find it absolutely amazing. I use it at the table so I can browse the web while eating, on the counter while cooking, and on the desk while typing.
Best of all, Choiix is going to give one away to a lucky TiPb reader, so if you want in all you have to do is leave a comment below telling me how you would use the Wave Stand.

Review + Giveaway: Choiix Wave Stand for iPad
I would give this to my wife as a gift, that way she could setup her iPad on the stand, for when she is in the kitchen or elsewhere doing stuff, and wants to have the iPad handy, but can't just set it down.
I work in a lab environment and use my iPad all the time. U have a homemade stand but it's jank.
I'd love to have this stand to use my iPad as a monitor when using my bluetooth keyboard!
I would it for entertainment, having a good way to hold my iPad while i watch movies and being able to have it on an exact angle that im comfortable with it, and I would also use it to show my parents videos and website so that they would not have to fuss about holding it and accidentally pressing something! I would find much use out of this :)

Just bought an iPad2 for my daughter for Christmas. This would be a great addition for her. She is disabled and it would be so helpful for her to use her new iPad.

We use our iPad in the kitchen for both recipes and streaming video/email. This stand would pair up nicely with the stainless steel appliances. :)
I would use it while teaching...
I would use the Wave to prop up my iPad to watch TiPb live chats, of course!
I'd use it to stand up my iPad... as intended...
I bought my wife an iPad and she needs it to stand it up in the kitchen while making noms.
I would like to attach a "floating" standing desk to the wall and use this fantastic looking stand with my iPad2 and Apple's wireless bluetooth keyboard. It would be so cool and futuristic. Ahhhh yes!
Heck there are tons of ways to use this thing watching movies, alarm clock, air play, second monitor. I would do all of them with it.
I need a sturdier stand for work, currently I use the smart cover, which is nice and all, but sometimes the iPad wobbles when I use it.
This would be PERFECT! I need a stand for the kitchen. I usually lean my iPad against the wall when I am cooking (the iPad is a great recipe book), but when you turn the garbage disposal on, the counter vibrates and the iPad slips down onto the counter/cutting-board I was just cutting chicken on.
I would give this to my sister-in-law for Christmas.
I currently have the original iPad and have stuck with the standard apple case since launch. It would be perfect for my office desk. I tend to use my iPad more then my desktop from time to time.
Please pickme to win for my anniversary wedding present
Would use it to FaceTime with the family while I travel. Looks very solid!
I would use it in my Middle School world history classroom, especially after learning how to use my iPad as a digital whiteboard (marking up maps, power points) and show students Apps including the Time Magazine App and Google Earth.
I would use it as a stand for sheet music, since I use my iPad primarily for playing guitar :)
I would definitely use it tutoring and to show my 2 new little pit bull puppies cute You tube videos of puppies just like them. The student I tutor loves zoo webcams like Pocket Zoo HD and Penguins. My puppies are curious and like anything with action. Right now my little girl puppy is in surgery for a hernia. I am a little concerned because she is so tiny. Her brother is in my lap sound asleep and snoring. I am keeping my mind occupied by writing this!
I'd be able to have a less cluttered desk when in the office and have a nice stand for presentations, etc...

How would you use it? Probably as a stand;)
i would love to win this most amazing spectacular device holder thingy it looks so back to the future-ish it would be so kool if i could be the one with it on my gadget filled desk PLEASE PICK ME!!!
I would use the stand to multitask when in Webex meetings. It would be like having a dual monitor without the dual monitor investment
I have a small business making jams and jellies and this stand would really come in handy while in the kitchen.
Any chance you will give an iPad to go with the stand?? No? For now, I'd stick a Kindle on it for reading and hope for a smaller iPad option next year.
I would use the stand to set up the iPad as a second monitor. It would be a great help.
Cooking definitely, and also on airplanes, where you have all of 10 horizontal inches to position all of your entertainment equipment.
I have no witty sayings, no creative kinds of uses,
I really want this stand and make no lame excuses.
I read Tipb, every morning, noon and night,
Naming me the winner would only make it right.
iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, we've got each and every one,
Having this Choiix Wave Stand would make things much more fun!
i would give this to my girlfriend that has a galaxy 10.1 even though she always uses my ipad 2! might have her use hers more since she got a horrible case for it
I would give it to my Dad for Christmas (he just got an iPad)
I would use it to watch Netflix and movies and to listen music and at night my sleep machine can't sleep with out it best sleeping app lol i don't have a stand and i was looking to get one and this looks amazing so apple like and the protective plastic is nice and secure but at the same time insures no scratches witch it is laking in must stands so please please let me have it i never win anything
So, I've spent about 20 years looking for the perfect bedside clock. They were too bright, not bright enough, numbers too small, did not have a long enough cord, would not play a musical alarm, projected the time on the ceiling, which I couldn't read without my glasses. I just wanted something to see the time large enough without waking completely-- so that when I was paranoid of sleeping through my alarm, I could go back to sleep. Strange, I know.
Ipad has solved all of this with Night Stand. Love IT!!!
But my rolled up cover is not holding the pad at quite the right angle. I have to sit up a bit, which wakes me up just too much.
I need your help!
I would use this with my Numark iDJ Live. I recently DJ'd at my friend's birthday party and he got a little drunk and fell over my iPad (destroying the plastic stand that the iDJ unit came with). Now my iPad is 'stand-less' when I am DJing so having this stand would definitely make things a lot better :) Please pick me ^_^
This would be great for me when I type. I like this stand and hope that I win
I would love to win this. I have been looking for something like this to use at my desk while working so I can see the new ios5 notification that pop up.
I have a smart cover (and love it), but it really doesn't achieve the proper angle for many things when standing up in the more vertical position (it's perfect in the more 'laying down' position). So, I'd use this while typing with a BT keyboard, in the kitchen while cooking, or to just hold the iPad up at my desk while I'm working on my desktop (I kind of work between my iPad and desktop as I work).
I would love to win this cool stand! I take the stand with me as I go to church and when I am home I would like to use to as a night stand for my Ipad 2.
I'd be able to watch movies while I knit, and take it with me to type stories in coffee shops. Please choose me!
I'd be able to watch movies while I knit, and take it with me to type stories in coffee shops. Please choose me!
I would use this stand as an incentive to buy an iPad!
To watch movies or as a nite stand
i am not going to say o i need this for some reason i am no better then any one els on here but i would deff love this
This case is the bomb I wound love to Rock my iPad 2 with this case!!!!
Looks like a great stand. It would definitely sit on my desk in my home office allowing me to easily see and access my iPad.
I use my iPad 2 for movies and it seems like it would be the perfect stand when I have it connected to my TV. THANKS!
I am thinking of using the iPad to record a series of lectures for students and this stand would be ideal to position the device!
Would love to have one of these holders instead of using books to prop it up
I would love to win this but I may be too late to enter the contest. I would use it mostly to watch movies or facetime.
I would use it as an awesome stand for my iPad and put it in my bedroom as a stand to use it as a tv. Please pick me!
This looks awesome and would go great on the desk of a developer.
Please pick me
I would love to win one for my iPad!
I too found it hard to get the right CSS information all in one place for the different iOS devices, hence the blog article.

FORT WALTON BEACH — Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Worldwide will continue to operate programs at two local schools despite concerns raised earlier in the year.
The Okaloosa County School Board voted unanimously to approve an agreement with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Institutes at Choctawhatchee and Crestview high schools following a brief discussion Monday night.
"We are thrilled to be a part of this and thank you for the opportunity," said Ron Garriga, who will serve as the director of local program.
The future of the contract was thrown into question in March after School Board members expressed concern about not only the enrollment in the program since Worldwide took over the contract from Daytona in 2010, but the seeming lack of college credits students could earn.
For the upcoming school year, Garriga said Embry-Riddle expects to have 200 students enrolled and hopes the program's popularity will increase with changes it is implementing to focus more on hands-on learning.
It has 170 students confirmed as of Tuesday. That's 54 more students than last year, Garriga said Tuesday.
Under the new contract, 10th-, 11th- and 12th-graders at Choctaw and Crestview can enroll in a variety of college level courses in the aviation field as long as they have a 2.5 GPA and two teacher recommendations.
Classes will have 10 to 30 students except for the Federal Aviation Administration Private Pilot Ground School certification program, which will max out at 25 students.
No matter what school or major a student decides to pursue in college, any courses taken will count at least as an elective credit, Garriga said.
If students choose to attend any of the Embry-Riddle college campuses, including Daytona, the credit will count for the actual course taken and not just as an elective, he said.
Under the new contract, the school district will be responsible for paying $413 per student and the schools will pay $562 per student rather than a flat rate as in the past.
The district also will be responsible for purchasing textbooks, Garriga said.
"Money's important, but I think this board is really concerned about ... enrollment," Chairman Rodney Walker said. " … I'm tickled to death with the price, but really, if you end up with nothing it doesn't matter what the price is, you still have nothing."
Board member Cathy Thigpen requested that Garriga give an update to the board in December.

Champ De Reves
Vintage: 2012
2012 has, so far been a positive year for wineries around the world. While it may be a little too early to speak of the wines being made in the northern hemisphere, European and North American wineries have already begun reporting that their harvesting season has been generally very good, and are predicting to continue with the kind of successes they saw in 2011. However, 2012 has been something of a late year for France, due to unpredictable weather throughout the summer, and the grapes were ripening considerably later than they did in 2011 (which was, admittedly, an exceptionally early year). French wineries are claiming, though, that this could well turn out to be advantageous, as the slow ripening will allow the resulting wines to express more flavour and features of the terroir they are grown in. The southern hemisphere has seen ideal climatic conditions in most of the key wine producing countries, and Australia and New Zealand particularly had a superb year, in particular with the Bordeaux varietal grapes that grow there and which love the humidity these countries received plenty of. Also enjoying a fantastic year for weather were wineries across Argentina and Chile, with the Mendoza region claiming that 2012 will be one of their best vintages of the past decade. Similar claims are being made across the Chilean wine regions, where Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon had an especially good year. These two grape varietals also produced characterful wines on the coastal regions of South Africa this year.
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir grapes have been cultivated in and around the Burgundy region of France for centuries, where they have long been favored by vintners for their wide range of flavors, their thin skins and for producing wines which have light, smooth tannins, and a beautiful garnet red color Whilst they remain one of the flagship varietals of this special region, their wide popularity and recent status as a fashionable 'romantic' varietal has led to them being planted in almost every wine producing country in the world. However, the Pinot Noir demands a huge amount of care and attention from the wineries that wish to grow it, as this varietal is particularly susceptible to various forms of mildew and rot. Despite this, the grape is otherwise a favorite with wineries for the fact that it requires little extra effort once it begins fermentation. Pinot Noir is also widely known for producing some of the world's most famous sparkling wines, being one of two key grapes for the production of Champagne, and several other sparkling varieties.
Region: California
It isn't difficult to see how California became one of the world's most important, successful and influential wine regions. Since the first vines were planted in the state by Spanish pioneers in the 18th century, the region has made the most of its ideal climatic conditions, which range from hot, dry and arid to windswept and cool, for vineyard cultivation and wine production. Today, California has almost half a million acres under vine, and hundreds of independent and well established wineries dotted across its vast wine-making areas. Californian wines range from the traditional, and those emulating fine Old World wines, to the experimental and unique, and it is the home to many of the world's most exciting and trailblazing wineries producing excellent bottles for the global market.
Country: United States
For three hundred years now, the United States has been leading the New World in wine production, both in regards to quantity and quality. Wine is actually produced in all fifty states across the country, with California leading the way by an enormous margin. Indeed, as much as eighty-nine percent of all wines to come out of the United States are produced in California, where the fertile soils and sloping mountain sides, coupled with the long, hot summers provide ideal conditions for producing high quality, European style red, white and rosé wines. With over a million acres of the country under vine, the United States sits comfortably as the fourth largest wine producer in the world, where imported grape varietals from all over the Old World are processed using a successful blend of traditional and contemporary techniques.

Rated 4.2 out of 5Â by 13 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5Â by EmilySF Is this the same top from the site? I bought this top as a light layer to wear on a trip to Tel Aviv. The photo makes it look as if the material is knitted. What I recieved was basically t-shirt materiali shapeless, not the same color and gigantic. The top has no shape at all and got worse with wear. There have been a number of reviews on FP (I am one to always read reviews before buying) that all bring up the same unfortunate fact- FP clothing has lost the quality it once had, but maintains the hefty price tag. I paid $100 for a top that I basically wore once and was completely ruined afterwards, with no shape anymore. 8.23.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Rochelle nice sweater dress I like this sweater, but not enough to buy two even at the sale price. This sweater looks as if it will snag and unravel easily. It is very see through, which is okay. I bought it to layer, however in warmer climates, it is limited when it can be worn. 8.3.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by smcmenemy1856 Comfy, but completely see-through. I bought this dress on sale in Black & White in size large. It seemed really loose at first, so I tried a medium in Sherbert - which was considerably shorter and tighter (especially on the sleeves). The tunic is very cute, but completely see-through. I'll have to buy a slip or something to wear under it. Other than that, I'm happy with my purchase. 7.12.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mtlardis Great little everyday piece I love this tunic. It is roomy, but not in a bad way, just like it looks on the models. I'm 5'2" and 50 kgs and I got the xs and it fits great. Not too short at all and I wear it with leggings. I got the black and white and it is only slightly sheer, definitely less sheer than the other colours. It does snag a little easily, so be careful. The hem appears to be a bit lopsided but I have noticed that with wear it has sort of evened itself out as it stretches out a bit more. I recommend this one. 6.9.2013
Rated 2 out of 5Â by kmoreloc So cute, but falling apart. I bought this in the black/white when it first came out and only wore it once because of how easily it kept snagging. Now that I have just worn it a second time, after hand washing, I have discovered SO MANY holes along every seam and a couple others scattered about. Really disappointing because this piece would look cute in so many ways, but for this kind of price, I expect to be able to get plenty of wear and longevity. Otherwise the colors and fit are great. 5.23.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fhg Aqua Olive....striking color! I was originally considering the pink when a reviewer raved about the aqua olive color....so I went to the store and they had them in 2-3 colors. There was one aqua olive and I grabbed it as soon as I saw it. It was an XS and the fit was perfect and the color is so very striking. Again, the picture just doesn't do it justice. So glad the reviewer mentioned it, that they happened to get it into the store in NYC, and that they happened to have one in that color and my size! The color is just so striking!!! 5.3.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Supersmarti Perfectly Adorable I got the teal color which is teal with shots of brown yarn throughout... and I just love this. It isn't quite long enough to be a dress but looks SO CUTE with leggings and booties. It runs true to size, is completely comfortable and just looks so sweet.It IS sheer'ish so you'll want to wear something underneath. I can't think of a single negative. 1.30.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by valskerie Who doesn't love a ruffle? I ordered this sweater tunic in the grey, and it has become one of my favorite sweaters! It is a bit long, but I don't mind it since I wear it with leggings and skinny jeans. It is thin, but being in California, it is perfect for our mild winters. I usually wear a cami or slip underneath... You won't be sorry with this purchase! 1.25.2013

Comedian Stephen Colbert briefly dropped his conservative persona Saturday to campaign for his big sister in Charleston.
Elizabeth Colbert Busch, a Democratic candidate running for South Carolina's 1st Congressional District, arrived with her brother for a reception Saturday afternoon at The Alley on Columbus Street.
The Comedy Central star, who grew up in Charleston, said he "couldn't be happier" to stump for his sister.
Colbert Busch previously said she has no plans to appear on his show, "The Colbert Report."
Additional events were planned later Saturday, including a dinner at Mark Tanenbaum's home on Sullivan's Island. Entrance into the fund- raisers ranged from $250 to $5,200. Media representatives were not allowed into the events.
Colbert Busch is one of 18 candidates running for the congressional seat, which was left empty after Gov. Nikki Haley appointed Sen. Tim Scott to the Senate following former Sen. Jim DeMint's resignation in December.
Colbert Busch will face off against Ben Frasier in the Democratic primary on March 19. A special election for the seat is scheduled for May 7.
Comedian and talk show host Stephen Colbert arrives at The Alley to attend a fundraiser for his sister, Elizabeth Colbert Busch, who is running for Congress.×

One of the eagerly awaited products in the history of McFarlane Toys becomes available this month. We've been working on our hockey rink display for almost two years, and it's finally being made available through the McFarlane Toys Collector's Club on Dec. 4. The rink captures the area including both face-off circles and all the way back to the end boards behind the goal (including all boards and glass).
The rink itself measures 45 inches wide by 33 inches deep. There are 12 interlocking pieces of the ice base, which hold nearly 200 pegholes for the positioning of Sports Picks figures. The rink comes in a rectangular box 18 inches wide, 12 inches deep, and six inches tall -- weighing approximately 10 pounds. The rink will debut as a Collector's Club Exclusive with a cost of $60. If demand for the rink is high, we will certainly consider restocking the item, much like we refresh our stock of the NBA backboard when supplies run low.
Our collectors have been very patient with us as we have gotten the rink perfected. They shall be richly rewarded Monday, Dec. 4.

Wow Mickiel! Awesome posts. I love what all God is revealing and working in you and how you came to share it with us is so sweet. Thanks so much. Saving these posts.kept
There will be no soul saving in Gods Kingdom. There will be no Salvation work going on, God is NOW working on the human Consciousness.
Quote from: MickielThere will be no soul saving in Gods Kingdom. There will be no Salvation work going on, God is NOW working on the human Consciousness.Hi Mickiel,I was wondering about what you said about, "no salvation work in the kingdom".What about these verses? Would you mind telling me when you think this will happen?(Isaiah 25:7) And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.(Isaiah 11:11) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left. (Isaiah 13:9) Speaks of the day of the Lord and how he will destroy the sinners and punish the world for their evil in verse 11. Then in verse 12 he says "I will make a man more precious than fine gold.(Isaiah 45:23) what about every knee bowing and tongue confessing? (Joel 2:32) says, whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. This talks about the day of the Lord.The Old Testament is full of scriptures about people and nations coming before the Lord worshiping and repenting when Christ comes back. It also says God will teach the world.CHB
Greetings,Well in each of the examples you listed, it speaks of God doing those things " In the Day of the Lord". The Day of the Lord starts as a precessor to Gods Kingdom, or it " Ushers it in." Look closer at Isaiah 11:11, " Then " It will happen on that Day". This is percision prophecy, these events will happen that Day. Or any of the verses you listed, the " Day of the Lord", is a Day, not a period of Time. It all will happen within that Day, at least that is how I understand it.But I have a question of you. What is it that you want to extend into the Kingdom of God? What is it, and Why, that you see will continue in Gods Kingdom, that exist now? I am curious to understand you also. Are you believing that people will need to be saved " During Gods Rein in his Kingdom?" Can you explain why you believe this, if you do?Peace.
Hi Mickiel,My understanding of the kingdom of God is, the thousand year reign of Christ. After this KINGDOM period is when Christ will turn over everything to the Father (1Cor. 15:24) "Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the KINGDOM TO GOD EVEN THE FATHER when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power". This KINGDOM PHASE {thousand years} is a time when Christ will teach the nations. This is the time when He puts down all power, authority, and rule. After everything is subdued to Christ there will not be any more salvation because all will be in God (1Cor. 15:28) And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.At this time not all are in God, so, won't it be a continuing thing until Christ has put down all power, rule and authority? I know this has been done spiritually but death still has to be destroyed, Satan still has to be dealt with.If you see this differently, please explain.CHB
Well yes, I do see it differently. This 1,000 year period, I don't see that as others do. One day with God is as a thousand years with a human, I see that as symbolism, not exact measurement. All this is explained in Rev.20: 4-7. Let me ask you something. What sense would it make, for Jesus, a Spirit being, and his saints, now Spirit beings, to rule over men of flesh for 1000 years? Keep satan locked up for 1000 years, then free him, then begin all this mess all over again? What sense does that really make?
What John saw seemed like a 1000 years to him, because he is not eternal. One day with God, seems like 1000 years, and I think that is the key. I think these events last just one day, and thats it. One of Gods days, not the 1000 year human concept of Gods day. It seemed like a thousand years to John.So I think the interpitation is how one views the 1000 years. I tend to look at it like God does, hardly no time at all. But a little space of time. Enough time for God to do the other things that he wants done during this period, with no interference from satan, which is why satan is imprisioned. I think those who fanticise on ruling, well they desire that time to be a long 1000 year period, so their rule can last that long. So they can be in power longer.But I think the key is within the Phrase, " In that Day". All these things will happen within that day. Peace.formatting
Concerning these 1000 years of ruling with Christ beliefs, if you look closer at the flow of Revelations, you will see some patterns that don't add up to me.For example, In Rev. 17:12, Authority is given for One Hour. In 18:8, Plagues will come in One Day. In 18:10, Judgement comes in One Hour. In 18:17, Babylon is destroyed in One Hour. In 18:19, the One Hour destruction is repeated. In Chapter 19 is the return of Christ. Everything that occurs between chapters 17-19, happens in only One hour or just One Day.So explain to me why the shift from the urgency of One Hour or One Day, to now 1000 years in Chapter 20? And why that 1000 years couldnot be symbolic of One day, and keep with the flow of events already occured?Just curious?Peace.
All of these things could happen in one day. All through the OT it speaks about the Lord's day and about all the things that is suppose to happen within it, cannot happen in one day. God teaching the world, one living to be a hundred, all things becoming peaceful with each other and so forth.CHB
Quote from: CHB All of these things could happen in one day. All through the OT it speaks about the Lord's day and about all the things that is suppose to happen within it, cannot happen in one day. God teaching the world, one living to be a hundred, all things becoming peaceful with each other and so forth.CHBWell I think you tend to believe that there will be flesh and blood in Gods Kingdom, and that his Kingdom will be on a human time table, as far as what a day is.And I understand that. I tend to believe differently.Nevertheless, Peace.formatting
[No, I don't believe flesh and blood will be in the kingdom. I do think that flesh and blood will be on earth at the same time that the kingdom will be here. I think the kingdom will only have spiritual beings in it. I don't think the kingdom will involve the whole earth during the millennium. Now, I have wondered if all of these things haven't already happened. Am not sure of this though. I am not sure if the 1000 years is a literal 1000 years. It could be shorter but I think it was more than a day.CHB

Martucci had two hits and Ball finished with one double and one single. Ripley, freshman Rachel Collier and junior Rebecca Elensky each were credited with two hits in the afternoon match.
Hilbert returns to the diamond tomorrow to square off against Johnson State and Drew University.

LONDON (AP) - It's time to find out whether Girl Power is still going strong, with the premiere of a new stage musical based on the songs of the Spice Girls.
The members of the 1990s girl group - Baby, Sporty, Scary, Ginger and Posh - are expected on the red carpet for Tuesday's opening night of "Viva Forever" at London's Piccadilly Theatre.
The musical uses Spice Girls songs including "Wannabe" and "Spice Up Your Life" in a tale of four friends whose bond becomes strained when their band enters a TV talent show.
It's a pop confection with heavyweight credentials. The show was written by comedian Jennifer Saunders, co-creator of celebrity-skewering sitcom "Absolutely Fabulous."
The producer is Judy Craymer, who produced stage and screen versions of the hugely successful ABBA musical "Mamma Mia!"

Seneca Quarry
|1823 Seneca Quarry workmen payroll. 1823 payroll. National Archives & Records Administration, Records Group 42: Records of the Office of Public Buildings and Public Parks of the National Capital, 1790–1992. The ARC Identifier is 3025595, MLR Number A1 18.
Congratulations are in order for Professor Mark Auslander for publishing his well researched and excellent article, "Enslaved Labor and Building the Smithsonian." I've been researching and writing a broad history of Seneca quarry over the past year, a book called The Smithsonian Castle and The Seneca Quarry, which the History Press will publish in February 2013 in time for Black History Month. Prof. Auslander and I each independently came to a very similar conclusion about the likelihood of slaves working at the quarry during the construction of the Smithsonian Castle. While overt evidence confirming that slave labor was used (such as a contract between a slave owner and a contractor to lease slaves) hasn't surfaced, the evidence points in that direction.
I might add that slaves almost certainly did work at the Seneca quarry on an earlier project in 1823, either for the US Capitol Rotunda archways and doors, or the White House porticoes, or both. We know this from a federal payroll found in the National Archives. The project lasted four months (April, May, June, July), and at its peak in May employed seventy workers at the quarry. Out of those seventy workers, thirty-one signed for their pay with an "X," which was then countersigned by the paymaster, Arch. Lee, as they were illiterate. It was illegal to educate slaves, so some (or even many) of these people may have been slaves. An additional three workers were noted as "Boy," meaning a slave servant. And thirteen workers were noted only by their first names—names like Rezin, Salsbury, Hall, Nace, Ishmael, Luke, Frank and Martin—a common practice for slaves. Someone signed for these thirteen people, as none of them "marked" the payroll. It could well be that their owners collected their pay and signed for them.

The most remarkable part of the 1823 payroll is the annotation by Frank and Martin (see image, lines 31 and 32). Whoever signed for their pay signed their names as "Negro Martin" and "Negro Frank." These men were almost certainly slaves. Adding these two together with the three "Boys," you have at least five slaves working on the project—and possibly many more. In fact, a majority of workers for this project may have been slaves.1
In all of my research, the 1823 federal payroll from Seneca quarry was the only quarry payroll I uncovered (and I looked through a lot of archives); this was of course four decades before the Castle construction. Sadly there are no quarry company records, and most of the early Castle records were burned up in a disastrous fire at the Smithsonian in January 1865. Like assembling a puzzle that's missing a few pieces, we can see the overall picture of Seneca quarry, even while some crucial elements may be forever lost.
The quarry at the time of the 1823 federal payroll was owned by Thomas Peter, the father of John P. C. Peter. He transferred the property to John around 1828, and John began building Montevideo, a Tudor Place in miniature a mile from the quarry. It was John P. C. Peter who won the bid to supply redstone for the Smithsonian Castle.
Seneca quarry closed during the Civil War; it lay right along the C&O Canal, which was frequently targeted by Confederates. In 1866, John P. C. Peter's son Thomas sold the quarry and adjacent farm to the Seneca Sandstone Company. The new owners mismanaged the company, significantly undercapitalizing it by selling stock to senior Republican leaders at half-price (including Ulysses S. Grant), then took out several mortgages that they couldn't pay back. The quarry's bankruptcy in 1876 helped bring down the Freedman's Bank, wiping out the savings of some 400,000 freed slaves and exacerbating poverty among African Americans for decades. This early example of Gilded Age crony capitalism has the whiff of Enron, WorldCom, and the recent housing bubble all wrapped into one.
Remarkably, the Seneca quarry reopened in 1883. It went bankrupt again in 1890, reopened, then closed for good in 1901. We know that many former slaves worked at the quarry after the Civil War from newspaper advertisements, personal accounts, and above all a treasure trove of photos uncovered during my research that shows the quarry in action—almost all of them showing black workers. The history of Seneca quarry is inextricably linked to African American history.

Passersby have enjoyed the beautiful and well-tended rose garden, which stretches down North Main Street on a lot bordered by E. 9th Street, for nearly thirty years. But alas, all things must pass. The owners and caretakers of those roses, Fred Weathers, and his wife Mae recently made the decision to remove the roses this year. According to a letter they wrote to the community, the decision was not made lightly and the Weathers say they have enjoyed tending the roses and hope that everyone enjoyed them during their daily travels on Main Street. The rose bushes will be removed and will not be given away, they said.

The Star of Gray contest was the idea of LeAnne Weathers, State Bank Assistant Vice President and the Assistant Branch Manager for Gray. Ten contestants will be performing in front of judges March 16 for the title of Star of Gray, and the winner will be announced next week.
Weathers is a member of the bank's Relay team, and she is the chairman of the entertainment committee.
"I went to corporate and asked if they would donate the money to get Jared Ashley to come and perform at the Relay For Life, and they said yes," she said.
Weathers said she believes bringing in a star like Ashley will increase awareness of the Relay for the entire community.
"Having a free concert should bring everyone out for a good time and raise a lot of money for the American Cancer Society," she said.
Weathers said, in addition to Ashley, a full production crew from Southern Sound and Lighting in Valdosta would make sure the concert sounds great.

Want to wish everyone a safe and great Thursday. It's is Friday tomorrow already where are these weeks goes.
Oh please Tina feel well soon. I had last week also a bad headache only one day but it almost kill me. Took
one of those pill as well but not help at all. And I am usually don't get headache.
We got back to the cold. Was -20C today. Forecast says only -5C for tomorrow and I hope they're right cause I hate
this super cold.
And I think this cold hit me anyway. Have had sore throat and flu since last night. Maybe I am feeling little better now.
Have try to keep me warm and drink hot tea and took some painkillers as well.
Hope all is feeling well or getting better very soon.
Take good care of you too.
((all in need or not))
*wanders in*
Lawyer is talking like I won't get a restraining order next week, that it'll most likely go to a hearing. He thinks maybe the Ex-hole might accept a restraining order if it is mutual. Excuse me? I won't agree to having my liberties bound when I have been the one being harassed. I haven't repeated gone down the Ex's street trying to peek in his windows. I haven't stalked him. I haven't lain in wait. I just want to be left alone... and the lawyer says I might have accept an order. Sorry, but that would be like saying the abuse was my fault, and I won't accept that.
This is all frustrating, but I am trying to focus on the positive things in my life. In the meantime, I'm going to need a tall latte... vanilla please.
Good Friday to all. Chill in sunny Fl. Was 37F this morning, but the sun is out and heading for mid 60's.
LTS wish you could find another lawyer that would push more for your rights.
Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable weekend. Have some fun and don't forget to do something special. Find the positives in life.
HOT herbal tea in hand and heading for bean bag central. All are welcome to join.
((((( all in need or not))))
We have so much snow I feel like I'm living inside a snowglobe when I look out of my window. Brrrrrr.
Ooh and Cat, I bought the ingredients earlier for those cabbage buns, but I probably won't make them now until after the weekend.

Nate Diaz to face Thomson at 'UFC on Fox 7' | CSN Bay Area
Should be fireworks, but I think Nate takes this one. I doubt he'll finish Thomson though.Former Strikeforce lightweight champion Josh Thomson will return to the octagon on April 20 against Stockton's Nate Diaz at "UFC on Fox 7."
Fighting out of the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Thomson (19-5) is coming off a controversial split decision loss to Gilbert Melendez last May.
Diaz (16-8) will be looking to bounce back from his unanimous decision loss to current UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson back in December.
Tickets to "UFC on Fox 7" at HP Pavilion in San Jose go on sale Feb. 15.
And the fight takes place on 4/20 so Nate should be in full effect.

- Clinical trial (1)
- Endometrial cancer (1)
- LHRH receptor (1)
- Phase 2 (1)
- Targeted therapy (1)
- A clinically relevant gene signature in triple negative and basal-like breast cancer (2011)
- INTRODUCTION: Current prognostic gene expression profiles for breast cancer mainly reflect proliferation status and are most useful in ER-positive cancers. Triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) are clinically heterogeneous and prognostic markers and biology-based therapies are needed to better treat this disease. METHODS: We assembled Affymetrix gene expression data for 579 TNBC and performed unsupervised analysis to define metagenes that distinguish molecular subsets within TNBC. We used n = 394 cases for discovery and n = 185 cases for validation. Sixteen metagenes emerged that identified basal-like, apocrine and claudin-low molecular subtypes, or reflected various non-neoplastic cell populations, including immune cells, blood, adipocytes, stroma, angiogenesis and inflammation within the cancer. The expressions of these metagenes were correlated with survival and multivariate analysis was performed, including routine clinical and pathological variables. RESULTS: Seventy-three percent of TNBC displayed basal-like molecular subtype that correlated with high histological grade and younger age. Survival of basal-like TNBC was not different from non basal-like TNBC. High expression of immune cell metagenes was associated with good and high expression of inflammation and angiogenesis-related metagenes were associated with poor prognosis. A ratio of high B-cell and low IL-8 metagenes identified 32% of TNBC with good prognosis (hazard ratio (HR) 0.37, 95% CI 0.22 to 0.61; P < 0.001) and was the only significant predictor in multivariate analysis including routine clinicopathological variables. CONCLUSIONS: We describe a ratio of high B-cell presence and low IL-8 activity as a powerful new prognostic marker for TNBC. Inhibition of the IL-8 pathway also represents an attractive novel therapeutic target for this disease.
- Efficacy and safety of AEZS-108 (LHRH agonist linked to doxorubicin) in women with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer expressing LHRH receptors: a multicenter phase 2 trial (AGO-GYN5) (2014)
- OBJECTIVE: Advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (EC) no longer amenable to surgery or radiotherapy is a life-threatening disease with limited therapeutic options left. Eighty percent of ECs express receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH), which can be targeted by AEZS-108 (zoptarelin doxorubicin acetate). This phase 2 trial was performed to assess the efficacy and safety of AEZS-108 in this group of patients. METHODS: Patients had FIGO (Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d'Obstétrique) III or IV or recurrent EC, LHRH receptor-positive tumor status, and at least had 1 measurable lesion (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors). Prior anthracycline therapy was not allowed. Patients received AEZS-108 as a 2-hour infusion on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. The treatment was continued for a maximum of 6 to 8 cycles. The primary end point was the response rate determined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. RESULTS: From April 2008 to November 2009, 44 patients were included in the study at 8 centers in Germany (AGO) and 3 centers in Bulgaria. Forty-three of these patients were eligible. Two (5%) patients had a complete remission, and 8 (18%) achieved a partial remission. Stable disease for at least 6 weeks was observed in 44%. The median time to progression was 7 months, and the median overall survival was 15 months. The most frequently reported grade 3 or 4 adverse effects were neutropenia (12%) and leucopenia (9%). CONCLUSIONS: AEZS-108, an LHRH-agonist coupled to doxorubicin, has significant activity and low toxicity in women with advanced or recurrent LHRH receptor-positive EC, supporting the principle of receptor-mediated targeted chemotherapy.
- Homogeneous datasets of triple negative breast cancers enable the identification of novel prognostic and predictive signatures (2011)
- Background: Current prognostic gene signatures for breast cancer mainly reflect proliferation status and have limited value in triple-negative (TNBC) cancers. The identification of prognostic signatures from TNBC cohorts was limited in the past due to small sample sizes. Methodology/Principal Findings: We assembled all currently publically available TNBC gene expression datasets generated on Affymetrix gene chips. Inter-laboratory variation was minimized by filtering methods for both samples and genes. Supervised analysis was performed to identify prognostic signatures from 394 cases which were subsequently tested on an independent validation cohort (n = 261 cases). Conclusions/Significance: Using two distinct false discovery rate thresholds, 25% and <3.5%, a larger (n = 264 probesets) and a smaller (n = 26 probesets) prognostic gene sets were identified and used as prognostic predictors. Most of these genes were positively associated with poor prognosis and correlated to metagenes for inflammation and angiogenesis. No correlation to other previously published prognostic signatures (recurrence score, genomic grade index, 70-gene signature, wound response signature, 7-gene immune response module, stroma derived prognostic predictor, and a medullary like signature) was observed. In multivariate analyses in the validation cohort the two signatures showed hazard ratios of 4.03 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.71–9.48; P = 0.001) and 4.08 (95% CI 1.79–9.28; P = 0.001), respectively. The 10-year event-free survival was 70% for the good risk and 20% for the high risk group. The 26-gene signatures had modest predictive value (AUC = 0.588) to predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, however, the combination of a B-cell metagene with the prognostic signatures increased its response predictive value. We identified a 264-gene prognostic signature for TNBC which is unrelated to previously known prognostic signatures.
- T-cell metagene predicts a favorable prognosis in estrogen receptor-negative and HER2-positive breast cancers (2009)
- Introduction Lymphocyte infiltration (LI) is often seen in breast cancer but its importance remains controversial. A positive correlation of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) amplification and LI has been described, which was associated with a more favorable outcome. However, specific lymphocytes might also promote tumor progression by shifting the cytokine milieu in the tumor. Methods Affymetrix HG-U133A microarray data of 1,781 primary breast cancer samples from 12 datasets were included. The correlation of immune system-related metagenes with different immune cells, clinical parameters, and survival was analyzed. Results A large cluster of nearly 600 genes with functions in immune cells was consistently obtained in all datasets. Seven robust metagenes from this cluster can act as surrogate markers for the amount of different immune cell types in the breast cancer sample. An IgG metagene as a marker for B cells had no significant prognostic value. In contrast, a strong positive prognostic value for the T-cell surrogate marker (lymphocyte-specific kinase (LCK) metagene) was observed among all estrogen receptor (ER)-negative tumors and those ER-positive tumors with a HER2 overexpression. Moreover ER-negative tumors with high expression of both IgG and LCK metagenes seem to respond better to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Conclusions Precise definitions of the specific subtypes of immune cells in the tumor can be accomplished from microarray data. These surrogate markers define subgroups of tumors with different prognosis. Importantly, all known prognostic gene signatures uniformly assign poor prognosis to all ER-negative tumors. In contrast, the LCK metagene actually separates the ER-negative group into better or worse prognosis.

Men's Basketball Players of the Week: Nov. 26 - Dec. 2December 5, 2012
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Demarcus Lewis (Holmes CC, Miss.), Aaron Simpson (Lincoln College, Ill.) and Tommie Starkes (Rockland CC, N.Y.) have been named NJCAA men's basketball players of the week for games Nov. 26 – Dec. 2.
Lewis put his exceptional offensive play on display in back-to-back games last week for the Bulldogs. The sophomore put up a game-high 31 points on 12-of-17 shooting from the field against Southwest Mississippi CC. Lewis added 10 rebounds for a double-double in Holmes' 78-70 victory. Despite falling 64-58 to East Mississippi CC, Lewis hit 8-of-12 field goal attempts for a game-high 24 points and pulled down seven boards.
Simpson posted over 30 points in two of three games last week for the Lynx. Spurring Lincoln on to a 95-72 victory over Lewis & Clark CC (Ill.), Simpson knocked down 12-of-17 shots from the field for a game-high 36 points. The freshman then recorded 19 points, seven rebounds and six assists in a 76-54 rout of Black Hawk College-East (Ill.). Although the Lynx lost 85-81 to State Fair CC (Mo.), Simpson enjoyed another top-notch performance with 31 points, five assists and four steals.
Coming through for the Hawks with two double-doubles, Starkes led Rockland to victory in both of their games last week. The sophomore totaled 12 rebounds, five assists and a game-high 26 points as Rockland defeated Orange County CC (N.Y.), 92-79. In a 90-75 win over Queensborough CC (N.Y.), Starkes had a complete performance with 24 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and four steals.

UFC increasing PPV price for UFC 168
Today it was revealed that the price for the UFC 168 PPV in high definition will be $59.95, where it previously had been $54.95. The UFC is more than likely taking after big boxing fights, who charge more for a big fight.
The news is noteworthy because previously UFC President Dana White had said he would 'never' increase PPV prices:
UFC President Dana White makes it as plain as he can that prices for UFC pay-per-views aren't going up: "I'll f**king go on record right now and say I will not raise pay-per-view," White said. "I won't do it."
