Zinka Colored Sunblock Zinc Nosecoat
Great for those extended days out in the sun!! This formula not only looks cool but it provides the highest waterproof sun protection possible!
Zinka is the original nosecoat that was very popular in the late 80's, early 90's. It is made from zinc-oxide.
Zinka Nosecoat offers the absolute maximum protection available from the sun's harmful rays. Zinka's proven formula withstands the most extreme weather conditions performing flawlessly in wind, hot, cold & wet. Zinka Nosecoat works as a sunblock not as a "sunscreen". It doesn't rub in like most sunscreen, but goes on opaque to be seen and to afford total protection. A clear sunscreen simply cannot provide total protection. It's clear, the sun's harmful rays will eventually penetrate the skin. It is the color that stays on the skin that ensures maximum protection by not allowing sunlight to be absorbed by the skin.
Endorsed by Dermatologists and extreme athletes worldwide, Zinka protects & performs!
INGREDIENTS: Petrolatum, zinc oxide, beeswax, paraffin, sorbitan oleate, fragrance (parfum), zea mays (corn) starch, tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E acetate) talc, vegetable oil, TBHQ, propylparaben, glyceryl oleate, citric acid. MAY CONTAIN: titanium dioxide, yellow 5 (ci#19140), chromium hydroxide green (ci#77289), ultramarine blue (ci#77007), manganese violet (ci#77742), red 6 lake (ci#15850), iron oxide.

Your chair dates from the late 19th Century, and is of a type that could be found in the mail order catalogs of Sears-Roebuck and Montgomery-Ward Circa 1898. It's loosely based on the "Eastlake style" that first appeared in North America during the early 1870's, the style named after Charles Locke Eastlake, whose popular design book "Hints on Household Taste in Furniture, Upholstery and other Details", published in Britain in 1868 and later in the United States in 1872. As far as value goes, in the current market not much I'm afraid for these later examples. Currently at auction examples in need of some TLC often sell for less than $50.00.

Since the current value is limited, have you considered having it restored? It could be quite beautiful as well as functional, and become a real conversation piece for someone in your family.

Galileo's Search and Rescue (SAR) system passes first space test Objavljeno: 24/01/2013
Galileo's Search and Rescue (SAR) system successfully passes first space test !
The first switch-on of a Galileo SAR package functions well and marks a major extension of the space-based Cospas-Sarsat network.
The second pair of Galileo satellites is the first of the constellation to host Search and Rescue (SAR) repeaters which can pickup UHF signals from emergency beacons aboard ships or aircrafts and relay them to local authorities for rescue.
The international SAR system is accountable for saving about 31,000 lives over more than three decades.
Further SAR payloads will follow these first two into orbit with the launches of follow-on Galileo Final Operational Capability satellites.
- Galileo is the name of the European Satellite Navigation programme.
- Cospas is a Russian acronym for 'Space System for the Search of Vessels in Distress'.
- Sarsat is an acronym for 'Search and Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking'

Indiana offers a wealth of opportunities for fun and recreation. Visitors and residents alike are attracted to our beautiful lakes, state parks, amusement parks and golf courses. The wealth of resources ensures that there's something for nearly everyone to enjoy in Indiana. However, a lack of equal access to the many types of fun can put a damper on the enjoyment for people with disabilities and their families.
Recreational activities help celebrate the human spirit, and represent the heart of a community. It is not only vital that people with disabilities have the opportunity to participate in recreation and entertainment activities—it is the law.
Recreation facilities, like any other public accommodations, must comply with general regulations set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). To read more about the ADA guidelines effecting recreation, view the ADA Accessibility Guidelines for Recreation Facilities.
Often, the primary barrier is a lack of knowledge about how to accommodate or modify activities for people with disabilities and lack of awareness of the laws associated with accommodations and accessibility. To help, IPAS has assembled information and a list of helpful links to ensure that every person is able to enjoy Indiana's treasures.
What is Accessible Recreation?
Accessibility means more than just wheelchair accommodations. "Universal access" allows everyone to enjoy activities, whether the disability is cognitive, mental illness, sensory—such as a visual or hearing impairment—or physical.
Remember: Many facilities have accommodations available for people with disabilities—you may just need to ask.
Recreation Standards
Currently, these final guidelines are not yet part of the U.S. Department of Justice's enforceable standard. However, people may wish to consult the guidelines in the interim, since the current enforceable standard does not specifically address the types of recreation facilities covered.
The absence of specific provisions in the current standards does not mean that recreation facilities or play areas are exempt from the provision of access; rather, it means that these facilities and areas are not held to a specific level of access under the current standard.
View the Recreation Standards.
ADAAG Guidelines
The Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) set out specific minimum requirements that cover a variety of recreational activities requiring physical access, whether they are operated by the government or private entities.
For example:
Guidelines also exist related to recreation facilities, such as:
Hotels and Motels
Hotels and motels must comply with all general ADA requirements for buildings used by the public, including requirements for parking, ramps, stairs, elevators, windows, doors, bathroom facilities, storage, alarms, communication, signage, and other accommodations needed by a visitor with a disability.
Accessible rooms must be provided according to a percentage of the total number of rooms in the hotel. View the Accessible Transient Lodging section of the ADAAG.
Sleeping accommodations for people with hearing impairments must be provided according to a percentage of total rooms in the hotel.
A variety of accessible room options in price and amenities must be provided.
Accessible sleeping rooms must have adequate space on both sides of the bed, proper doorways, accessible storage if storage is provided, appropriate controls, accessible bathrooms, and accessible routes within a suite.
Common ADA Problems at Newly Constructed Lodging Facilities
Restaurants and Bars
Restaurants must comply with ADA requirements for buildings used by the public, including requirements for parking, ramps, stairs, elevators, windows, doors, bathroom facilities, alarms, signage, and others.
When food or drink is served at counters, a portion of the main counter must be accessible or service provided at accessible tables in the same area.
Accessible fixed tables must be accessible by an aisle at least 36 inches in width. In new construction, all dining areas must be accessible or comparable services and décor must be available in accessible areas.
Food service lines must be accessible to a person using a wheelchair. Tableware, dishware, condiments, food and beverages must be within reach. Platforms in banquet rooms must be accessible. Vending machines and other equipment must be accessible.
For more information on the ADA and restaurants see the ADA Guide: Restaurants and Bars.
Swimming Pools and Spas
Any pool with more than 300 linear feet of pool wall must have a minimum of two accessible means of entry. Pool walls at diving areas and in areas where swimmers cannot enter because of landscaping or adjacent structures are still counted as part of the pool's total linear feet.
The primary means of entry must be either a sloped entry into the water or a pool lift that is capable of being independently operated by a person with a disability. The secondary means of entry could be a pool lift, sloped entry, transfer wall, transfer system or pool stairs. It is recommended that when two means of entry are provided, they should be different types and situated on different pool walls. If swimming pools are part of a multi-use facility, designers and operators must also comply with ADAAG and all applicable requirements for recreation facilities. These include but are not limited to:
View more information about how swimming can be a great recreational sport for people with disabilities from the National Center on Physical Activity and Disability – Fun and Leisure: Swimming.

Sporting Facilities
Accessibility requirements for sporting facilities differ based on the activity itself. Click on the links below for more information about each sport:
For more information about lifetime sports, competitive sports, and fun and leisure activities, visit the National Center on Physical Activity and Disability.
Assembly Areas
In a movie theater or assembly area, wheelchair areas are required as integral parts of any fixed seating plan, and should be provided so as to provide people with physical disabilities a choice of admission prices and lines of sight comparable to those for members of the general public.
At least one companion fixed seat needs to be provided next to each wheelchair seating area. Removable armrests are recommended on fixed companion seats provided in assembly areas, amusement facilities and theaters. This provides the option for an individual using a wheelchair or other mobility device to transfer into a seat where motion and other effects may be provided as part of the entertainment experience.
If the listening system provided serves individual fixed seats, these seats must be located within a 50-foot viewing distance of the stage or playing area with a complete view of the stage or playing area. This distance of 50 feet enables a person to distinguish performers' facial expressions.
To see what types of assistive listening devices and systems are appropriate, visit the Summary of Assistive Listening Devices and Systems.

Temporary Events
Inclusion of people with disabilities in temporary events such as carnivals, fairs, festivals and meetings is mandated by the ADA. While these events are required to be compliant by ADA standards, event planners can create reasonable accommodations by making sure that individuals with disabilities are able to:
Remember, the meeting of the above requirements does not mean that the specific event is compliant with all ADA regulations. To ensure that an event is completely accessible according to ADA regulations, see the ADA Standards for Accessible Design
Parks and Playgrounds
Outdoor recreation is an important part of every child's life, regardless of age or disability. To see a list of accessible parks by state, view the National Center on Physical Activity and Disability- Accessible Parks Web site.
The ADA requires that all play areas also are accessible. The following links from PlayDesigns explain the ADA requirements for playgrounds, and how to ensure your child's playground is compliant:

Ask the Psychiatric Pharmacist #5
Written by Karen Moeller, PharmD, BCPP
My doctor recently started me on lithium and told me there are lots of drug interactions with this medication. My pharmacist is very good at telling me about interactions with prescription medications but how do I know which non-prescription or over-the-counter medications to avoid?
Great question! First, if you have any questions regarding non-prescription medications (also known as over the counter medications) or herbal medications, your pharmacist can help answer those questions for you. Pharmacists are experts on both prescription and non-prescription medications. Never be afraid to ask your pharmacist a question; we love to help.
Your doctor is right about lithium having many drug interactions. It is always important that you let ALL your doctors, including dentists and pharmacists, know you are taking lithium in order to avoid potential drug interactions.
As for over-the counter medications that can interact with lithium, the most common drug interactions with lithium are with the Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents (NSAIDs) that are often used to treat aches and pains. When combined with lithium, NSAIDs can increase lithium levels in the blood resulting in an increased risk for serious adverse effects like confusion, tremor, slurred speech, and vomiting. Examples of non-prescription NSAIDs include:
- Ibuprofen (Advil® or Motrin®)
- Naproxen (Naprosyn®, Aleve®)
There are also many prescription NSAIDs such as the following:
- Celecoxib (Celebrex®)
- Diclofenac (Voltaren® or Cataflam®)
- Etodolac (Lodine®)
- Indomethacin (Indocin®)
- Ketoprofen (Orudis®)
- Ketorolac (Toradol®)
- Meloxicam (Mobic®)
- Nabumetone (Relafen®)
- Oxaprozin (Daypro®)
- Piroxicam (Feldene®)
- Tolmetin (Tolectin®)
In general, it is best to avoid the NSAIDS listed above when taking lithium. Certainly, they should not be used frequently or on a regular basis without consultation with your doctor(s).
If you do need a pain reliever while taking lithium, acetaminophen (Tylenol®) or aspirin (Bayer®, Bufferin®, Ecotrin®) are safe alternatives. Sulindac (Clinoril®), a prescription pain reliever, can also be used as an alternative.
Also, too much caffeine can decrease the effectiveness of lithium and possibly increase your symptoms.
When buying any non-prescription medication it is very important to look at the active ingredients on the package. Many non-prescription medications, such as those used to treat the cold and flu, contain multiple active ingredients and may interact with your medication. For example, Advil Cold and Flu® contains ibuprofen which can increase your lithium level. Also, read the labeling information on all non-prescription medications; this may help avoid drug interactions. When reading the active ingredients list on non-prescription medications or when in doubt about any drug interaction, ask your pharmacist!
NAMI Wishes to thank the College of Psychiatric and Neurological Pharmacists for their participation in writing our medication fact sheets and for writing our "Ask the Psychiatric Pharmacist" questions and answers.

Who is Nature's Secret?
At Nature's Secret we believe that total body wellness is the key to overall health.
The conventional approach to health sees the body as a set of separate parts, each needing their own separate treatments. Take a look at the way our medical system is organized - from cardiologists to dermatologists, we have a doctor for nearly every body part.
But nature has a well-kept secret...there is no separation between any of our systems. They are all intricately connected in a brilliant dance only nature could orchestrate. At Nature's Secret, we develop our life-changing products using this whole-body philosophy. We understand, for example, that sluggish digestion can lead to low energy levels and shouldn't always be treated with caffeinated energy tablets.
Our approach focuses on the origins of imbalance, not the signs of imbalance. That is Nature's Secret, total body wholeness and wellness. .

An article on Science Daily discusses a recent presentation given at the APA annual conference on the good and bad effects of social networking. Now, I wasn't at the conference so I can't comment as to the actual presentation or the researchers giving it, but the article lays out a few of the "arguments" for why social networking could be good and bad for young people based on previous research on the topic.
In it's bullet pointed list of "adverse effects" of social network use, the first effect is in reference to a study on Facebook and narcissistic tendencies. I actually wrote on this research when it first came out in a previous SPE post. This research showed that the more people checked their Facebook, the higher they scored on measures of narcissism and that certain types of content were also associated with this personality trait. However, this was correlational research. In other words, checking Facebook does not necessarily make young people become more narcissistic. In fact it's most likely that the personality trait precedes behaviour, as narcissism is a relatively stable personality trait.
There was no citation to the actual research for the second and third "adverse effect" mentioned (that daily use of Facebook increases anxiety and leads to lower grades). But I suspect that again these studies did not experimentally induce use of Facebook among a random sample of teens but simply measured Facebook use and these other negative behaviours and found a positive correlation. In other words, people who are narcissistic, anxious, or depressed, might be more likely to spend their time on social networking sites (for all sorts of reasons). Furthermore, people who spend too much time doing anything outside of studying are likely to have worse grades than people who are spending a quality amount of time studying. Again, I don't know which research the author was referring to, so if people know of experimental work in this area, please point me in the right direction.
It has been known for ages that internet addiction is related to things like depression. But this doesn't mean that use of the internet causes depression or anti-social behaviour or narcisism. It may simply be that these types of people are more likely to be drawn to spending vast amounts of time on the internet and that social networking sites in particular might provide a unique outlet for highly narcissistic individuals. To argue that the use of Facebook alone will cause your child to become more narcissistic or depressed seems unfounded and a bit silly.
The article also discusses some positive aspects of social network use, including increased empathy towards friends and as a potential tool for engaging students. Some research has suggested a link between Facebook use and greater personal contentment, greater social trust, and increased social capital among college students.
Clearly there is a need for more research on the topic and in particularly experimental research that can begin to identify if social networking actually causes any of these (positive or negative) behaviours. However, my own suspicion is that different types of people choose to use social networking in different ways. The narcissist will find a use for Facebook that is very different than a young person interested in activism. Both might spend a great deal of time on Facebook but the quality and type of production resulting from that time might be vastly different.
I hope more researchers start looking at social networking sites (and not just Facebook!) in order to see how these are being used by young people and indeed how it shapes or alters behaviour or personality. However, until that research is done we cannot take correlational findings and assume causation.

October 16, 2012
By Alison Acosta Fraser
The federal government has closed out its fourth straight year of trillion-dollar-plus deficits, and the imperative to rein in spending has never been greater. Because all government spending gets paid for through either taxes or borrowing—both of which burden the economy—spending reduction is an essential condition for promoting economic growth.
As this 2012 edition of Federal Spending by the Numbers shows, total federal spending for fiscal year 2012[1] reached $3.6 trillion, or 22.9 percent the size of the entire U.S. economy. In the past 20 years, federal outlays have grown 71 percent faster than inflation. The average American household's share of this spending is $29,691, roughly two-thirds of median household income. This relentless growth is projected to continue, pushing total government outlays to $5.5 trillion a decade from now, and to about 36 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) in the next 25 years.
Federal entitlements are driving this spending growth, having increased from less than half of total federal outlays just 20 years ago to nearly 62 percent in 2012. Three major programs—Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security—dominate in size and growth, soaking up about 44 percent of the budget. All three programs are growing faster than inflation, and—when joined with $1.7 trillion in new Obamacare spending—will drain about 18.5 percent of the nation's total economic output by mid-century. Because that is about the historical annual average of total federal tax revenue, it means all other government programs—national defense, veterans health care, transportation, federal law enforcement, and others—would effectively have to be financed on borrowed money.
Other entitlements continue growing as well. Anti-poverty programs have surged by 49 percent in just the past decade, even after adjusting for inflation. Spending for food stamps alone has more than tripled since 2002. Health programs, including Medicaid, have increased by 38 percent, and housing assistance by 48 percent.
Although these entitlement programs have dominated the government's spending growth, discretionary spending—spending authorized by annual appropriations bills—also has grown by 40 percent more than inflation, to $1.289 trillion. Spending on non-defense programs has grown 29 percent. These outlays peaked in 2010 due to the stimulus bill, but remain 7 percent higher than their pre-stimulus level of 2008.
The result of this increasing deficit spending—which is financed by borrowing—is growing debt. If current policies continue, debt held by the public will approach 90 percent of total economic output by 2022, and will be twice the size of the entire economy 25 years from now.
There is still time to change course—but that time is growing short. The Heritage Foundation's budget plan, Saving the American Dream,[2] reforms entitlements to make them affordable and sustainable, reins in other spending while adequately funding defense, and balances the budget in 10 years. The budget can be put on a stable, sustainable course if policymakers act soon.
Congress has overseen unsustainable spending increases on programs such as education, veterans benefits, and transportation, demonstrating its failure to set budget priorities and rein in federal spending.

Video: Erie County Clerk Deposits $5 Million From Unopened Mail
BUFFALO, NY - Checks worth millions of dollars from a backlog of mail has been cashed by the Erie County Clerk.
Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs says $5-million dollars has been deposited so far from checks that were in unopened envelopes. The mail was a spill over from the previous two clerks.
Jacobs says $7,000 has been spent in overtime for workers to come in on Saturdays and tackle the piles and piles of mail. Based on what was done on Saturdays alone, Jacobs says "$737,171 was deposited."
The Clerk anticipates all of the uncashed checks will be deposited in a couple of weeks.
There is another room in the Clerk's office that is still loaded with mail bins filled with mortgage documents that must be opened, verified and returned to banks, lawyers and homeowners. Jacobs expects that task will take about four months to complete. More money overtime will be spent to get the job done.
A task force is working with the Clerk's office to make sure this type of backlog does not happen again, according to Jacobs. The goal in the future is that "checks will be cashed no later than two or three days. Original documents will be returned no longer than two months. Right now original documents were languishing as much as 18-months which is very much an impediment to our financial institutions," he said.

The Kanien'kehá:ka (or Mohawk people) are the most easterly tribe of the Iroquois Confederacy. They call themselves the Kahniakenhaka,[2] "People of the Flint Place."[3] and are an Iroquoian-speaking indigenous people of North America. They were historically based in the Mohawk Valley in upstate New York; their territory ranged to present-day southern Quebec and eastern Ontario. Their traditional homeland stretched southward of the Mohawk River, eastward to the Green Mountains of Vermont, westward to the border with the Oneida Nation's traditional homeland territory, and northward to the St Lawrence River. As original members of the Iroquois League, or Haudenosaunee, the Mohawk were known as the "Keepers of the Eastern Door". For hundreds of years, they guarded the Iroquois Confederation against invasion from that direction by tribes from the New England and lower New York areas. Their current settlements include areas around Lake Ontario and the St Lawrence River in Canada and New York. The People of Ka Nee-en Ka received their familiar name, "Mohawk", from the neighboring (and competing) People of Muh-heck Heek Ing (whom the Dutch called "Mohicans" or "Mahicans"). The Mohicans/Mahicans called them "Maw Unk Lin" or "Bear Place People". The Dutch transcribed this as "Mohawk".

Origins of name[edit]
In the Mohawk language, the people say that they are from Kanien'kehá:ka or "Flint Stone Place". As such, the Mohawks were extremely wealthy traders as other nations in their confederacy needed their flint for tool making. Their Algonquian-speaking neighbors (and competitors), the People of "Muh-heck Heek Ing" (Food Area Place), a people who the Dutch called "Mohicans" or "Mahicans", called the People of Ka-nee-en Ka "Maw Unk Lin" or "Bear People". The Dutch heard and wrote this as "Mohawks". This is why the People of Kan-ee-en Ka are often referred to as "Mohawks". The Dutch also referred to the Mohawk as "Egils" or "Maquas". The French adapted these terms as Aigniers, Maquis, or called them by the generic "Iroquois", which is a French derivation of the Algonquian term for the Five Nations: "Snake People"".
History since colonization[edit]
First contact with European settlers[edit]
The Mohawk encountered both the Dutch, who went up the Hudson River for trade near present-day Albany, New York, and the French, who came into their territory from Canada, both for trade and with Jesuit missionaries teaching about Christianity.
In 1614, the Dutch opened a trading post at Fort Nassau, New Netherland. The Dutch initially traded for furs with the local Mahican. In 1628, the Mohawk tribe defeated the Mahican, who retreated to Connecticut. The People of Ka-nee-en Ka (Mohawks) gained a near-monopoly in the fur trade with the Dutch by not allowing the nearby Algonquian-speaking tribes to the north or east to trade with them. The Dutch also established trading posts at present-day Schenectady and Schoharie, further west in the Mohawk Valley and closer to Mohawk settlements.
The Mohawk and Dutch became allies. During their alliance, the Mohawks allowed a Dutch missionary, John Megapolensis, to come into their tribe and teach the Christian message.[4] Their relations were peaceful even during the periods of Kieft's War and the Esopus Wars, when the Dutch fought localized battles with other tribes. The Dutch trade partners equipped the Mohawk with guns to fight against other nations allied with the French, including the Ojibwe, Huron-Wendat, and Algonquin. In 1645 the Mohawk made peace with the French.
During the Pequot War (1634–1638), the Algonquian Indians of New England sought an alliance with the Mohawk. The Mohawk refused the alliance, killing the Pequot sachem Sassacus, who had come to them for refuge.
In the winter of 1651, the Mohawk attacked to the southeast and overwhelmed Algonquians in the coastal areas. They took between 500-600 captives. In 1664, the Pequot of New England killed a Mohawk ambassador, starting a war that resulted in the destruction of the Pequot. The Mohawks also attacked other members of the Pequot confederacy, in a war that lasted until 1671.[citation needed]
In 1666, the French attacked the Mohawk in the central New York area, burning all the Mohawk villages and their stored food supply. One of the conditions of the peace was that the Mohawks accept Jesuit missionaries. Beginning in 1669, missionaries attempted to convert many Mohawks to Christianity and relocate to two mission villages near Montreal. These Mohawks became known as the Kahnawake (also spelled Caughnawaga) and they became allies of the French. Many converted to Catholicism at Kahnawake, the village named after them.
One of the most famous Catholic Mohawks was Kateri Tekakwitha. She was later beatified and was canonized in October 2012 as the first Native American Catholic saint.
After the fall of New Netherland to England in 1649, the Mohawk in New York became English allies. During King Philip's War, Metacom, sachem of the warring Wampanoag Pokanoket, decided to winter with his warriors near Albany in 1675. Encouraged by the English, the Mohawk attacked and killed all but 40 of the 400 Pokanokets.
From the 1690s, the Mohawk in the New York colony were appealed to convert by Protestant missionaries. Many were baptized with English surnames, while others were given both first and surnames in English.
During the era of the French and Indian War (also known as the Seven Years' War), Anglo-Mohawk partnership relations were maintained by men such as Sir William Johnson in New York (for the British Crown), Conrad Weiser (on behalf of the colony of Pennsylvania), and Hendrick Theyanoguin (for the Mohawk). The Albany Congress of 1754 was called on in June, to discuss with the Iroquois chiefs in part to repair the damaged diplomatic relationship between the British and the Mohawk, along with securing their cooperation and support in fighting the French.[5]
American Revolutionary War[edit]
During the second and third quarters of the 18th century, most of the Mohawk in the Province of New York lived along the Mohawk River at Canajoharie. A few lived at Schoharie, and the rest lived about 30 miles downstream at the Tionondorage Castle, also called Fort Hunter. These two major settlements were traditionally called the Upper Castle and the Lower Castle. The Lower Castle was almost contiguous with Sir Peter Warren's Warrensbush. Sir William Johnson, the British Superintendent of Indian Affairs, built his first house on the north bank of the Mohawk River almost opposite Warrensbush.
Because of unsettled conflicts with colonists encroaching into their territory in the Mohawk Valley and outstanding treaty obligations to the British Crown, the Mohawk were among the four Iroquois tribes that allied with the British during the American Revolutionary War. Joseph Brant acted as a war chief and successfully led raids against British and German colonists in the Mohawk Valley.
A few prominent Mohawks, such as the sachem Little Abraham at Fort Hunter, remained neutral throughout the war. Joseph Louis Cook, a veteran of the French and Indian War and ally of the rebels, offered his services to the Americans, receiving an officer's commission from the Continental Congress. He led Oneida warriors against the British. During this war, Johannes Tekarihoga was the civil leader of the Mohawk. He died around 1780. Catherine Crogan, a clan mother and wife of Mohawk war chief Joseph Brant, named her brother Henry Crogan as the new Tekarihoga.
After the Revolution[edit]
After the American victory, the British ceded their claim to land in the colonies, and the Americans forced their allies, the Mohawk and others, to give up their territories in New York. Most of the Mohawk migrated to Canada, where the Crown gave them land in compensation. The Mohawks at the Upper Castle fled to Fort Niagara, while most of those at the Lower Castle fled to Montreal. This land was settled on the Grand River (Ontario), and extended 100 miles from its mouth to the head of Lake Erie where it discharges.[6]
Joseph Brant led a large group of Iroquois out of New York to what became the reserve of the Six Nations of the Grand River, Ontario. Another Mohawk war chief, John Deseronto, led a group of Mohawks to the Bay of Quinte. Other Mohawks settled in the vicinity of Montreal and upriver, joining the established communities (now reserves) at Kahnawake, Akwesasne, and Kanesatake.
On November 11, 1794, representatives of the Mohawks (along with the other Iroquois nations) signed the Treaty of Canandaigua with the United States, which allowed them to own land there.
The Mohawk fought with the British against the United States in the War of 1812.
In 1993 a group of Akwesasne Mohawks purchased 322 acres of land in the Town of Palatine in Montgomery County, New York which they named Kanatsiohareke, marking a return to their ancestral land.
Mohawk communities today[edit]
Members of the Mohawk tribe now live in settlements in northern New York State and southeastern Canada. Many Mohawk communities have two sets of chiefs, who are in some sense competing governmental rivals. One group are the hereditary chiefs nominated by Clan Mother matriarchs in the traditional Mohawk fashion; the other are the elected chief and councilors, with whom the Canadian and U.S. governments usually prefer to deal exclusively. These are grouped below by broad geographical cluster, with notes on the character of community governance found in each.
- Northern New York:
- Kanièn:ke (Ganienkeh) "Place of the flint". Traditional governance.
- Kana'tsioharè:ke "Place of the washed pail". Traditional governance.
- Along the St Lawrence:
- Ahkwesásne (St. Regis, New York and Canada) "Where the partridge drums". Traditional governance, band/tribal elections.
- Ka'nehsatà:ke (Oka) "Where the snow crust is". Canada, traditional governance, band/tribal elections.
- Kahnawà:ke "On the rapids". Canada, traditional governance, band/tribal elections.
- Southern Ontario:
- Kenhtè:ke (Tyendinaga) "On the bay". Traditional governance, band/tribal elections.

Since the 1980s, Mohawk politics have been driven by factional disputes over gambling, land claims, traditional government jurisdiction, taxation, and the Indian Act.
Mohawk ironworkers in New York[edit]
New York City has a Mohawk community founded by construction workers for bridges and skyscrapers of Mohawk and other Iroquois origin. They worked from the 1930s to the 1970s on special labor contracts as specialists and participated in building the Empire State Building. The construction companies found that the Mohawk ironworkers did not fear heights or dangerous conditions. Their contracts offered lower than average wages to the First Nations people and limited labor union membership.[7]
The work and home life of Mohawk steelworkers was documented in Don Owen's 1965 National Film Board of Canada documentary High Steel.[8] A Mohawk community in Brooklyn called "Little Caughnawaga" had its heyday from the 1920s to the 1960s. These Brooklyn Mohawk were mostly from Kahnawake, where they returned every summer.[9]
Approximately 200 Mohawk iron workers (out of 2000 total iron workers at the site) have contributed to rebuilding the One World Trade Center. They typically drive the 360 miles from the Kahnawake reserve on the St. Lawrence River in Quebec to work the week in lower Manhattan, and then return on the weekend to be with their families. A selection of portraits of these Mohawk iron workers were featured in an online photo essay for Time Magazine in September 2012.[10]
Both the elected chiefs and the controversial Warrior Society have encouraged gambling as a means of ensuring tribal self-sufficiency on the various reserves or Indian reservations. Traditional chiefs have tended to oppose gaming on moral grounds and out of fear of corruption and organized crime. Such disputes have also been associated with religious divisions: the traditional chiefs are often associated with the Longhouse tradition, practicing consensus-democratic values, while the Warrior Society has attacked that religion and asserted independence. Meanwhile, the elected chiefs have tended to be associated (though in a much looser and general way) with democratic, legislative and Canadian governmental values.
On October 15, 1993, Governor Mario Cuomo entered into the "Tribal-State Compact Between the St. Regis Mohawk Tribe and the State of New York". The compact allowed the Tribe to conduct gambling, including games such as baccarat, blackjack, craps and roulette, on the Akwesasne Reservation in Franklin County under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA).
According to the terms of the 1993 compact, the New York State Racing and Wagering Board, the New York State Police and the St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Gaming Commission were vested with gaming oversight. Law enforcement responsibilities fell under the cognizance of the state police, with some law enforcement matters left to the tribe. As required by IGRA, the compact was approved by the United States Department of the Interior before it took effect. There were several extensions and amendments to this compact, but not all of them were approved by the U.S. Department of the Interior.
On June 12, 2003, the New York Court of Appeals affirmed the lower courts' rulings that Governor Cuomo exceeded his authority by entering into the compact absent legislative authorization and declared the compact void [1]. On October 19, 2004, Governor George Pataki signed a bill passed by the State Legislature that ratified the compact as being Nunc Pro Tunc, with some additional minor changes.[11]
In 2008 the Mohawk Nation was working to obtain approval to own and operate a casino in Sullivan County, New York, at Monticello Raceway. The U.S. Department of the Interior disapproved this action and even after the Mohawk gained Governor Eliot Spitzer's concurrence, subject to the negotiation and approval of either an amendment to the current compact or a new compact, rejected their application to take this land into trust.[12]
There are currently two legal cases pending. The State of New York has expressed similar objections in its responses to take land into trust for other Indian nations and tribes.[13] The other contends that the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act violates the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution as it is applied in the State of New York and in 2010 was pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of New York.[14]
Traditional Mohawk religion is predominantly Animist. "Much of the religion is based on a primordial conflict between good and evil."[15] Many Mohawk continue to follow the Longhouse Religion.
In 1632 a band of Jesuit missionaries led by Isaac Jogues was captured by a party of Mohawks and brought to Ossernenon (now Auriesville, New York). Jogues attempted to convert the Mohawks to Catholicism, but was murdered. Ten years after Jogues' death Kateri Tekakwitha, the daughter of a Mohawk chief, and Tagaskouita, a Roman Catholic Algonquin woman, was born in Ossernenon and later was canonized as the first Native American saint. Religion became a tool of conflict between the French and British in Mohawk country. The Reformed clergyman Godfridius Dellius preached to the Mohawks and served as a counterweight to French Jesuit influence.
Traditional Mohawk dress[edit]
|This section needs additional citations for verification. (December 2012)
The traditional hairstyle of the Mohawk, and other tribes of the Iroquois, was to remove the hair from the head by plucking (not shaving) tuft by tuft of hair until all that was left was a square of hair on the back crown of the head. The remaining hair was shortened so that three short braids of hair were created, and those braids were highly decorated. This true "Mohawk" hairstyle is not to be confused with the version in popular American culture, which is actually taken from the Pawnee.
The women wore their hair long, often dressed with traditional bear grease, or tied back into a single braid. They often wore no covering or hat on their heads, even in winter.
In traditional dress the women went topless in summer and wore a skirt of deerskin. In colder seasons, women wore a full woodland deerskin dress, and leather tied underwear. They wore puckered-seam, ankle-wrap moccasins. They wore several ear piercings adorned with shell earrings and shell necklaces.
The women used a layer of smoked and cured moss as an insulating absorbent layer during menses, as well as simple scraps of leather. Later, they used cotton-linen pieces, in areas where colonists had provided such items through trade.[citation needed]
Mohawk men wore a breech cloth of deerskin in summer. In cooler weather, they added deerskin leggings and a full-piece deerskin shirt. They also wore several shell strand earrings, shell necklaces, long fashioned hair, and puckered seamed wrap ankle moccasins. The men carried a quill and flint arrow hunting bag, and had arm and knee bands.
During the summer, the Mohawk children traditionally wore nothing up to the ages of thirteen. Then ready for their warrior or woman rites of passage, they took on the clothing of adults.[citation needed]
Later dress after European contact combined some cloth pieces such as the males' ribbon shirt in addition to the deerskin clothing, and wool trousers and skirts. For a time many Mohawk people incorporated a combination of the older styles of dress with newly introduced forms of clothing.
According to author Kanatí:ios in Rotinonhsión:ni Clothing and & Other Cultural Items, Mohawks as a part of the Rotinonhsión:ni Confederacy "traditionally used furs obtained from the woodland, which consisted of elk and deer hides, corn husks, and they also wove plant and tree fibers to produce [the] clothing". Later, sinew or animal gut was cleaned and prepared as a thread for garments and footwear and was threaded to porcupine quills or sharp leg bones to sew or pierce eyeholes for threading. Clothing dyes were obtained of various sources such as berries, tree barks, flowers, grasses, sometimes fixed with urine.[citation needed] Durable clothing that was held by older village people and adults was handed down to others in their family sometimes as gifts, honours, or because people had outgrown them.
Mohawk clothing was sometimes reminiscent of designs from trade with neighboring First Nation tribes, and more closely resembled that of other Six Nations confederacy nations; however, much of the originality of the Mohawk nation peoples' style of dress was preserved as the foundation of the style they wore.
The Mohawk Nation people have a matrilineal kinship system, with descent and inheritance passed through the female line. Much respect is given to the woman because she is the head of the household and controls its property.[citation needed] They hold marriage as a great commitment that should be nurtured and respected. Mohawk Nation wedding ceremonies are conducted by a high-ranking man or by couple's choice. The marrying couple unite in a lifelong relationship.
The traditional marriage ceremony included a day of celebration for the newlyweds, a formal oration by a nobleman of the woman's clan, community dancing and feasting, and gifts of respect and honour by community members. Traditionally these gifts were practical items that the couple would use in daily life.
For wedding clothing, they wore white rabbit leathers and furs with personal adornments, usually made by their families. The "Rabbit Dance Song" and other social dance songs were sung by the men, where they used gourd rattles and later cow-horn rattles. In the "Water Drum", other well-wishing couples participated in the dance with the couple. The meal commenced after the ceremony and everyone who participated ate.
Today, the marriage ceremony may follow that of the old tradition or incorporate newer elements, but is still used by many Mohawk Nation marrying couples. Some couples choose to marry in the European manner and the Longhouse manner, with the Longhouse ceremony usually held first.[16]
Replicas of seventeenth-century longhouses have been built at landmarks and tourist villages, such as Kanata Village, Brantford, Ontario, and Awkwasasne's "Tsiionhiakwatha" interpretation village. Other Mohawk Nation Longhouses are found on the Mohawk territory reserves that hold the Mohawk law recitations, ceremonial rites, and the Mohawk and Longhouse religion (or "Code of Handsome Lake"). These include:
- Ohswé:ken(Six Nations) First Nation Territory, Ontario holds six Ceremonial Mohawk Community Longhouse.
- Wáhta First Nation Territory, Ontario holds one Ceremonial Mohawk Community Longhouse.
- Kenhtè:ke(Tyendinaga) First Nation Territory, Ontario holds one Ceremonial Mohawk Community Longhouse.
- Ahkwesásne First Nation Territory, Quebec holds two Mohawk Ceremonial Community Longhouses.
- Ka'nehsatà:ke First Nation Territory, Quebec holds one Ceremonial Mohawk Community Longhouses.
- Kahnawà:ke First Nation Territory, Quebec holds three Ceremonial Mohawk Community Longhouse.

No bombs found after CBC evacuation
Editor's Note: KEPR does not generally report on bomb threats to avoid copycat behavior, but we felt compelled to share this with you because of the extent of the threat.
PASCO, Wash. -- A bomb threat forced the evacuation of Columbia Basin College Thursday. The college received the threat on their voicemail at 11:23 a.m., according to CBC spokesperson Frank Murray.
Pasco police confirmed it was a credible threat. That's when CBC sent out text alerts to students and began evacuating campus immediately.
CBC - EVACUATE :: An emergency has been reported on Pasco/Richland/Chase campuses. Please evacuate the campus immediately.— CBC (@CBCollege) July 18, 2013
Police searched campus on bikes in search of any suspicious packages. Police also brought in a helicopter to monitor the campus from above.
Police are still investigating. They believe one person is responsible and are actively looking for the suspect.
Class will be back in session on Friday.

CANTON The SUNY Canton baseball and softball teams lent their support last weekend to Boston-based Fisher College after last weeks bombings and shootings in the Boston area.
Fisher College, which is located on Beacon Street in Boston just a few blocks from where bombs exploded April 15 at the Boston Marathon, played baseball and softball games against SUNY Canton on Saturday and Sunday in Canton.
Fishers teams were unable to leave as scheduled or obtain expense money Friday because of a travel lockdown in Boston. The teams left some players behind before managing to depart with enough players late Friday evening and arriving in Canton at 4 a.m. Saturday.
SUNY Canton acknowledged Fisher during Saturdays games, standing with the team during the national anthem, and playing the Neil Diamond song Sweet Caroline, as many other sports teams have done in support of Boston.
The Fisher baseball team defeated SUNY Canton 10-9 on Saturday, while Canton beat Fisher in softball 6-1. Afterward, SUNY Canton hosted the Falcons baseball and softball teams to dinner at Sergis Restaurant in Canton.

Archive for the 'Electric Vehicle Company' tag
Four-Links – One Austin's role in history, Eldorado photo shoot, New York's electric taxis, vintage racing in Central Park?
* Over at Hooniverse this week, Robby DeGraff shared the tale of one particular Austin, the monk that it carried, and his stumbling across is, still in Vietnam, largely forgotten.
* Lou over at the 1956 Eldorado Biarritz Survivor Roster recently came across some intriguing photos showing just how secretive Cadillac was about its new cars in the mid-1950s, especially when it came to transporting them for a photo shoot.
* We've previously taken a look at the Electrobats, those electric taxi cabs built by the Electric Vehicle Company that you'll often come across in turn-of-the-century photos of New York City, but if you didn't happen to catch Jalopnik's story on the Electric Vehicle Company this week, it's worth a read.
* While we're on the topic of New York City, Bradley Price over at Automobilian suggested this week that Manhattan consider introducing a vintage grand prix to Central Park to go along with the upcoming Grand Prix of America at Port Imperial, something like the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix.
* Finally, let's disabuse you of the idea that stock car racing is a purely American motorsport with OldStox.com, a site dedicated to British stock car racing of the 1950s through the 1970s.

It's about time.
The locator beacon entirely manufactured by an outside contractor (Honeywell) and used on many aircraft manufacturers' planes, is about as specific to the 787, as a can of Coca-Cola in the galley carts.
Wonder what is the latest word is on that 787 at Heathrow.
I think the reason it was specific to the 787 at first, besides the fact that it was in one, was there was a question on the installation. Apparently they have found something else.
As far as the 787 at Heathrow, I haven't heard anything either. That will be interesting if/or when it surfaces. It could be that Boeing will be taking the fix on that and trying to sweep it under the rug
Yes, at first, in ignorance, the faulty locator was associated to the aircraft type by having burned up inside the plane. But that's about the extent of the relationship. About the same as getting a bad case of gas from drinking a Coke on the plane, as anything to do with the aircraft.
They quickly determined that the crimped wires were inside the unit. Other similar units on other aircraft inspected after the incident also showed wiring issues and/or damage inside the units.
As such they should've inspected all such units in ALL aircraft ASAP, after such determination by the investigating parties that the cause of the fire was from the locator. Even moreso, after other units turned up with problematic issues.
If another one of these burns up at cruising altitude will almost certainly result in fatalities, particularly in ETOPS operation, but not only. An uncontained fire on an aircraft in flight in an area without automatic fire suppression can quickly damage essential control elements. Many if not most incidents of cargo fires, there is only a period of minutes before pilots lose control of essential control surfaces and/or the plane falls out of the sky.
Personally, I'd feel better if these locators (and similar devices with stored combustible energy) were only placed in areas of passenger aircraft that are equipped with automatic fire suppression.
Tend to agree with you about your take on the fix. But nothing more than an inkling to go on.
Thanks for the additional info on the ELT's. I never did hear that the wire crimp was on the inside of the unit. The initial reports indicated they were outside of it, which I guess is what caused the 787 scramble
the only info we got from insurance experts was that the entire tail section of the Ethiopian 787 has to be replaced, we are waiting for more info to do a followup article.
Maybe Honeywell are getting these made and assembled by a bunch of 13 yr olds somewhere distant like China or India. The FAA takes a long long time to react. I get the feeling they ask all financial parties first before acting. Personally I would not give them the time of day.

The Catholic University for Independent Thinkers
The Catholic Biblical School is offered as several programs, whether onsite in the Dallas - Fort Worth area or online. It is also offered in Spanish, both in the Dallas area and several other dioceses across the United States.
The Dallas - Fort Worth onsite program is meant for individuals in the DFW area who want to take their CBS courses at the University of Dallas or another parish in the area. These classes meet for two hours a week.
The online Catholic Biblical School is accessible across the globe. Class work is completed asynchronously by students, who engage with classmates through online discussion boards and watch relevant lectures posted by professors.
The Escuela Bíblica Católica is the same curriculum of the Catholic Biblical School, only taught in Spanish. It is offered throughout DFW and at several dioceses across the U.S. in partnership with the Catholic Extension Society.
