Welcome to Week 41 of our 52 weeks of Sharing Memories - A Genealogy Journey for 2012. I hope you'll join in writing your memoirs and childhood memories for your descendants.
you are just joining us, please take a peek at over 150
prompts by clicking on the Sharing Memories tab at the top of Olive Tree
Genealogy blog. You can jump in at any time and you can skip topics
that you don't like. There are no rules, it's all about getting your
memories down on paper. The prompts are here as a guide to help if you
are stuck for ideas.
Last week we talked about the first "grown-up" job we had. That got me thinking about how interesting it would be for descendants to read about all the jobs we ever held. My mother wrote about some of her jobs in her life story and many of them were a surprise to me. I'd only known that she worked in a munitions factory during WW2 and that later she became a medical secretary. It was fascinating to read about other things she'd done during her life.
So - what jobs (full or part-time) have you held? I'm not sure I can remember all mine but here goes:
During High School I worked at the Ajax Public Library, after school and on Saturdays and every day during the summer. (My mother got this job for me when I was 14)
The summer I was 15 I worked part time in my Aunt's Hairdressing Salon - what fun! I got to do shampoos, take out rollers (remember those?) do a comb-out and sweep the floors. I liked it though. I also helped out in my cousin's Veterinary Clinic whenever I could.
The summer I was 16 I worked as a waitress at Divine Lake Lodge in Halliburton Ontario. (I wanted an adventure and I got one but that's another story)
When I was 17 I spent my summer working as a coin sorter for a Vending Machine company. I don't think I've ever had a more boring or lonely job!
My first adult job was the one I talked about last Sunday - assistant to the Chief Accountant of Central Mortgage & Housing ( I was always good at Math, that's what landed me that job)
When I first married, I was hired by a Marketing Firm to analyze survey questions. After a month they promoted me and trained me to work with clients and develop surveys. I loved this job but I didn't feel I completely understood it. I messed up with a big cigarette client but they were very forgiving since I was so new.
I left the Marketing job to accept a position at Deer Park Public Library in Toronto. I was once again a Jill of all trades, trained to fill in for others on holiday as well as do my own job. I didn't like it there so applied for a promotion to another library (Forest Hill Public Library) which was much smaller. I loved it there and worked there several years.
When I moved away from the city to a small town I began a series of miscellaneous jobs - from Day Care worker to Nursery School worker to Dental office receptionist to bookkeeper for an Ophthalmologist then finally to a job I enjoyed - working with emotionally disturbed children in the school system. When one of the workers was murdered by one of the kids in their group home, my husband made me quit.
Then I began a 17 year career working with teens with behaviour problems. I loved that job but boy was it stressful! I switched for a few years to work with autistic children, then developmentally and physically challenged kids but returned to my real love - those with severe behaviour problems.
Eventually I went back to University, got my teaching certificate, and started working one on one with teenage boys who'd been expelled from High Schools due to their behaviour. It was a great job and I did that for about 4 years before I burned out.
For awhile I worked as a Math tutor for kids in Grades 9 to 11 but that was a frustrating job.
At that point I started working in the field of genealogy and here I am today!
Your turn :-) What exciting, boring or adventurous jobs have you held over the years?

PORT LEYDEN Lyonsdale town officials are seeking residents interested in serving as supervisor.
We want to get the best-qualified person for that position, Town Councilwoman Nancy A. OBrien-Dailey said.
Any interested residents are asked to send a letter by Thursday to Lyonsdale Town Board, Attn: Supervisor Position, P.O. Box 722, Lyons Falls, N.Y. 13368.
A couple of people have inquired about the post which has been vacant since second-year Supervisor Marylou Hawk stepped down in early March, citing time constraints but anyone interested is encouraged to submit a letter of interest, Ms. OBrien-Dailey said.
Council members may appoint someone as supervisor through the end of the year, although the post will be up for election in November.
The board now has only three members, since one resigned in February because of health issues.
The board is grateful for the service Marylou gave, Ms. OBrien-Dailey said. She stepped up to fill the position when it was vacated by the prior supervisor.
Mrs. Hawk had an extremely busy year as supervisor, having dealt with audits from various agencies, including the Teamsters, insurance, fire inspection and the state comptrollers office, she said.
While the town is still awaiting findings from the comptroller, Ms. OBrien-Dailey said, the audit was very thorough and covered many aspects of town business.
Concerns over fuel contamination at the town garage also were dealt with through the state Department of Environmental Conservation, she said.
Working with the DEC and a certified environmental contractor, a survey was done of the town barnyard, and it was found to be a nonissue, Ms. OBrien-Dailey said. The concern had been brought to the DECs attention that a prior spill may not have been cleaned up properly, with concerns of a cover-up. The survey confirmed the documentation from the prior spill.
She expressed gratitude toward the previous town board members and superintendent for being thorough with the cleanup.
We have had several different sets of eyes scrutinize the day-to-day operations and feel very positive that we are in compliance, she said. It is our hope that we can move forward and our only concern will be when our snow leaves.

By STEVEN C. BARROWESSalt Lake
Why are many Middle East countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Jordan, and smaller Arab states considering building nuclear power plants, when the region has so much oil?
Jordan wants to diversify because they import oil, and oil prices are rising. Perhaps others are worried by prices and Iran's nuclear program, according to an April 15 Washington Post article.
Why do they not fear nuclear, as many in the U.S. do? They probably realize that the Chernobyl disaster happened partly because it had an unsafe design, but mainly because the bull-headed plant manager, who had no nuclear training, insisted on shutting off several safety systems so he could try an experiment. He wouldn't listen to those who had nuclear training.
Practically all of the 400 or so nuclear power plants in the world are built to the safe designs of General Electric or Westinghouse, and are operated by trained, reasonable personnel.
In its half century, the U.S. nuclear power industry hasn't killed one person by radiation, so we needn't avoid nuclear so long as we can continue to avoid unsafe designs and bullheaded bosses.

There's no better way to start the month of December than with a Prayer Day. We're all in different places, with different struggles- some of us are excited for the holidays, and some dreading them. No matter what you're facing, dads, we want to consistently offer the opportunity to bear each other's burdens and joys, because everyone needs a safe space to come and ask for prayer. It's an honor and a privilege to stand together as men in this journey of fatherhood.
Take some time today to pray over this Advent and Christmas season- to rest in the fact that, because of Christmas, we have a Savior, a high priest, who can sympathize with us and who prays on our behalf.
Leave your request in the comments. Then, if you have the time, leave another comment with a written prayer for the person right above you. Let's support each other, holding up each other's arms in this battle to raise godly men.
Let's pray.

Even as the world's most prominent expert on genocide warns that South Africa's European-descent Afrikaner population is on the verge of government-linked extermination, the virulently racist U.S.-based "New Black Panther Party" has a delegation visiting the so-called "Rainbow nation" — a country now ruled by a president who openly sings about murdering whites. The NBPP and its leadership have regularly called for genocide against white South Africans as well, so critics of the visit are expressing alarm, concerned that the officially recognized hate group is agitating for further ethnic cleansing while collaborating with genocidal elements within the regimes ruling South Africa and Zimbabwe.
On the NBPP's official website, the New Black Panthers boast about their "historic" trip to Marxist-ruled Zimbabwe and South Africa, which the anti-white and anti-Semitic organization refers to as "Azania." During broadcasted conference calls about the visit posted online, members and leaders of the group were caught plotting to accelerate the elimination of European-descent South Africans from their homeland. On the call, participants claimed they would "raise up a black army" and offer military training, bragging about collaborating with people who have murdered whites and calling for more racist killings.
The NBPP did not return a request for comment from The New American. However, according to a statement released online, the vaguely outlined purposes of the visit apparently include creating a better future as well as uniting African and black countries. In reality, as the group's publicly available radio shows and frequent genocidal remarks demonstrate, the true purpose of the ongoing visit is more likely to help pursue the ultimate extermination of all European-descent Africans from the region.
The official NBPP statement, which was filled with spelling and grammar mistakes, also indicated that the "home coming visit" was being coordinated with the All-African People's Revolutionary Party (A-APRP) and brutal dictator Robert Mugabe's "Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front" (ZANU–PF). The socialist so-called "Pan African Congress" also played a role in arranging the trip, which includes NBPP members from various countries including the United States and goes from March 19 until the 27th.
"This is not just a visit but a historic journey that may UNITE AFRICAN/BLACK Nation's [sic]," the group said on its website. "It is a visit in which, 20 and 30 years from now, men and women will speak about it and write of it [sic]. To all my brothers and sisters we ask each and everyone [sic] of you to give your full support to make this historic journey a success, wherever you are, support us spiritually, physically, especially financially [sic] if you can please contact and Support the Revolutionary Roots tour 2013 [sic]."

'The Amazing Race' - 'I Feel Like I'm In, Like, Sicily' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 25th 2010 11:35PM
(S16E10) With four teams remaining on 'The Amazing Race,' this season's almost a wrap. While the remaining teams aren't quite the teams I expected vying for the win, there's one aspect of the four teams which almost puts me in shock. There's only one woman left. That's a bit surprising in and of itself.
'The Amazing Race' - 'Dumb Did Us In' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 11th 2010 11:54PM
(S16E09) Yikes! I'm finding it hard to believe that we're down to five teams on 'The Amazing Race.' It seems like it just started a few weeks ago. Where has the season gone? The five remaining teams aren't necessarily the final five teams I would have predicted in the beginning. I really thought Steve and Allie or Joe and Heidi would have taken up a few of the last slots.
But both of those teams were Philiminated, so we're down to models, lesbians, cowboys, cops and young brothers, oh my. Well, the cowboys are brothers, too. Are the best teams still in the running? I can only say that since they haven't been eliminated, they deserve to be there. That doesn't mean I have to like them.
'The Amazing Race' - 'You're Like Jason Bourne, Right?'
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 5th 2010 1:02AM
(S16E08) Tonight will make or break this season's strongest team, Jet and Cord, on 'The Amazing Race.' I know some folks might say they aren't the strongest team as they came in last in the previous leg and were only saved by it being a non-Philimination leg. But I beg to differ. They definitely had a bad leg; they most certainly screwed up by not reading a clue. Even taking that into consideration, they're the strongest team. They seem to be up to almost every task thrown their way, and they work well together as a team. Can they overcome the speed bump and continue the race?
'The Amazing Race' - 'Anonymous?'
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 29th 2010 12:20AM
(S16E07) Who'd be a better sponsor for the seventh episode of this season's 'The Amazing Race' than 7-Up? While I'm surprised there wasn't product placement throughout the show, it was certainly mentioned enough. And, now one team even has a lifetime supply of the beverage.
While it was a nice reprieve from the Travelocity Roaming Gnome, it makes me miss the old days when commercials were just in the commercials. What? You say I'm promoting products? Not so ... er, pass me that glass of 7-Up, please.
'The Amazing Race' - 'Cathy Drone?' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 22nd 2010 12:31AM
(S16E06) I realize, for the most part, sometimes the folks on the West Coast are envious of us in the East. After all, we get to watch our favorite shows three hours earlier than they do! Sure, we can give breaking news on spoilers like "Phil was at the welcome mat with a mime." But there's a huge drawback to viewing our favorite shows here in the New York City area.
It's called sports. It doesn't matter what sport either. Sooner or later, golf, basketball, football, baseball or another fan-driven game with its overpaid pseudo-celebrities delay our favorite reality shows with their own pseudo-celebs. Tonight, 'The Amazing Race' was delayed nearly an hour due to March Madness. That's aptly named as I get mad every March at basketball.
'The Amazing Race' - 'I Think We're Fighting the Germans, Right?' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 15th 2010 1:08AM
(S16E05) Brave soldiers marching as to war ... or maybe it's just a team from 'The Amazing Race' hoping to make the pit stop without interference from the Red Baron. The episode started off on a new and different note. After arriving at the last pit stop, the teams were taken to an undisclosed location. They didn't know; we didn't know. Mais oui, we all figured it out. It turned out that the lack of whereabouts knowledge wasn't what affected this leg. It was all about over confidence. That can end up biting you in the butt.
'The Amazing Race' - 'We Are No Longer in the Bible Belt' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 8th 2010 1:08AM
(S16E04) Ah, a tough decision -- 'The Amazing Race' or the start of the Academy Awards? Nah, not tough at all. If 'The Amazing Race' is on, I'm watching! I'm such an addict. I just can't get that rush of adrenalin, that perched-on-the-edge-of-my-seat excitement and more over the Oscars. With the Academy Awards, I don't have a team to cheer on, nor anyone to mock. I don't get that quick smack of cultural knowledge watching Hollywood glitz. Give me beer-drinking, bungee-jumping, bad taxi hacks, sauerkraut-eating, polka-playing, soccer ball kicking, strange metro systems, and teamwork (or the lack thereof). That's what I want for my Sunday evening. And, anyway, the best awards come late into the evening!
'The Amazing Race' - 'Run Like Scalded Dogs' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 1st 2010 12:20AM
(S16E03) "Run like scalded dogs?" Well, that's a new one on me. It was said by one of the cowboys on 'The Amazing Race' tonight and is just about as pleasant as the "don't throw the baby out with the bathwater" saying. Who comes up with such evil sayings? What twisted minds create such horrid images? Probably some of the same minds who create challenges on reality television competition shows.
'The Amazing Race' - 'When the Cow Kicked Me in the Head' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Feb 22nd 2010 12:10AM
(S16E02) 'The Amazing Race' is the reality television show that most viewers want to live vicariously through. After all, who really wants to be stuck in a house with strangers? Or eat bugs? Nope. We want adventure! A whirlwind trip through countries, cool challenges, a quick cultural dip into unfamiliar territories, and more. Sure, there's a million dollar prize at the end. But I think the show attracts some teams almost as much for the adventure of it all. However, teams caught up in the adventure sometimes take their eyes off the prize and face Philimination.
'The Amazing Race' - 'Nanna is Kickin' Your Butt' Recap (Season Premiere)
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Feb 15th 2010 12:30AM
(S16E01) It's always hard to keep the teams straight during the first few episodes of any reality show. 'The Amazing Race' is no exception to the rule. True, as a 'Big Brother' fan, I'm all too familiar with Jordan and Jeff from last season. But that leaves ten teams to confuse me! At least the teams are diverse enough so that my main dilemma is figuring out who is whom on the same sex teams. I mean, really, which one is Jordan and which one is Dan? At least I can tell the male and female Jordans from different teams apart! And I also know Chile isn't China.
Teams announced for The Amazing Race 16
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Jan 21st 2010 7:06PM
Before you know it, it will be time for another whirlwind race around the world as the Emmy-winning reality show, The Amazing Race, returns for its 16th season. The new season is set to premiere at 8 PM ET/PT on Sunday, February 14. Today CBS announced the teams we'll be loving or hating as we vicariously travel around the world with them from the comfort of our own homes. The official CBS website is up and running with in-depth bios of the teams.
Review: The Amazing Race - Amazing Grace, How Sweet the Sound!
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Dec 7th 2009 1:12AM
(S15E12) And, so it ends. Yep, the season finale of The Amazing Race tends to sneak up pretty quickly on us, doesn't it? Each season, the adrenalin rush builds up, builds up, then comes crashing down in one fell swoop back in the United States after a warp speed cruise through foreign cultures and faraway lands. I like to think of this show as a thinking man's (or woman's) reality show. Not only do I get to mock or enjoy the contestants, I learn about people and places. Oh, and I learned not to blow the finale results on the main page before the jump. Read on.
Review: The Amazing Race - It Starts With an F, That's All I'm Saying
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Nov 30th 2009 12:01AM
(S15E11) Next week is the big season finale of The Amazing Race. But this week the last four teams have to battle it out for the prized final three slots racing for the finish line. So, you would think this is the time to put on the big boy (or girl) pants, step up to the plate, give it your all, and a thousand other corny trite sayings. Alas, one team tonight has a huge fail. Of all the legs to fall apart and go kerflooey, this one so near the finale is cruel indeed. Too bad, so sad.
Review: The Amazing Race - We're Not Working With Anybody, Ever, Anymore!
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Nov 23rd 2009 1:25AM
(S15E10) I mentioned last week that the remaining teams on The Amazing Race are really feeling the pressure as they're getting closer to the win. Well, there were no fisticuffs, no elbowing, but there was an underhanded incident ... or two or three.
Unlike Survivor, this show doesn't depend on sneakiness or scheming. In the end, it's how well they run the race around the world, how well they read the clues, and how well they complete the tasks. While getting along with the other teams is always a good thing, there's no popularity vote at the finish line. But they are competing. Sometimes some sneakiness just sneaks on in.
Review: The Amazing Race - We're Not Meant for the Swamp
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Nov 16th 2009 12:50AM
(S15E09) Things got a bit down and dirty tonight on The Amazing Race. I'm talking more ways than one. As the promos for the episode showed, we had muddy bogs and a quasi-skirmish between two teams tonight. There are five teams left in the race at this time. Two of the teams are definitely vying for the alpha male rating on the show. And I'm not talking Brian and Ericka! Any previous alliances are gone in the wind as the teams try to get to the precious final three. Take no prisoners.

Mitigation services are fast becoming a great work at home business model for many around the country.
There are many types of mitigation services, some of which involve loans and lawsuits, those are not the services we will be discussing as home business opportunities. The services we are highlighting have to do with the true definitions of the word mitigation " to make less severe, less painful and less costly" after catastrophic damage to one's home or business.
That is where the opportunities are bountiful and rewarding as a start up or franchise work from home business.
Consider these important industry facts concerning just a few types of home or business loss services.
- Water damage is the number one homeowner insurance claim.
- One third of all insurance claims are mold or water damage related.
- Water damage and mold damage cost insurers $5 billion nationally on an annual basis.
- Changes to water chemistry contribute to accelerated corrosion and failure of copper pipes.
- A 1/8-inch crack in a pipe can release up to 250 gallons of water a day.
- Property damage resulting from water damage due to plumbing failures and freezing pipes is the third most common cause of homeowner loss.
That is just a sample of the industry statics that equal a lot hurt, pain, damage, and cost that require immediate mitigation to avoid becoming worse.
What Drives All The Damage?
Think about the simple fact that the insurance policy market pays out around US$ 200 billion each year to recover storm damage consisting of roof, home siding, home window in order to rain gutter harm, a number that normally rises yearly. And also it is an exterior insurance restoration firm that commonly does the job.
As the number of solid tornados including rain, higher winds and hailstorm is on the rise. In 2010, the U.S. was struck by additional all-natural catastrophes compared to ever before, with 247 snowstorms, thunderstorms and floods that cost the country 10s of billions of dollars in damages.
Insurance policy business in 2010 paid out more than US$ 9 billion for electrical storm harm alone, highlighting a 500 % rise in typical yearly electrical storm loss since 1980.
Basing the info on the CBS Morning Information, in the three-day duration of April 24-27, 2011 there have been more than 1,000 intense weather forecast across the country. 2011 has actually verified to be a historical year for tornadoes and tornado damage to property. 90 % of all damages will be repaired at the expense of the insurance policy market!

A Lesson In Hardwood Flooring And Installation
Installing wood flooring can occur in several methods depending upon the kind of hardwood flooring that you have. You have to look at the type of wood you have if you have strong hardwood. You can have parquet flooring, which usually is available in tiles of 6 inches by 6 inches or strips or planks that can be as much as 3 inches broad. If you have laminate wood flooring then you need to take a look at a different method of installing hardwood flooring.
Whether you select laminate flooring or solid wood flooring, the directions for installing both of them are printed on the within of the packaging. You do require to read the instructions for installing laminate flooring if you have actually previously set up wood floors and now you desire to set up glueless laminate flooring. When you are installing wood flooring made from strong wood, you need to pen the plans and let the wood ended up being acclimatized to the humidity and temperature level of your home. With laminate flooring, you need to do the specific reverse. You must not take this flooring out of the bundle up until you are all set to start setting up.
Successful setup of wood or laminate flooring relies on careful planning. Even if you are setting up wood flooring over an existing concrete or vinyl floor, you do have to sweep and vacuum the floor to remove all the dust and dirt. If you are not sure of exactly how much laminate flooring you will certainly require, the instructions for setting up laminate flooring also include instructions for determining the space to compute the quantity of flooring that you need. When you intend to install glueless laminate flooring, you can likewise bring your measurements into your local floors 2U store and have the experts do the computations for you.
If you are questioning how to install glueless laminate flooring and be able to keep it on the floor, each of the planks lock together with the tongue and groove design. When setting up hardwood flooring like this, you can not glue, nail or staple it in any method. When you start setting up constantly think about the way the light lusters into the room. Begin laying the planks towards the light and in a hallway constantly install glueless Orlando laminate flooring lengthwise.
The instructions for installing laminate flooring will certainly tell you that you lay the first plank with the grooves against the wall. Place spacers where they are needed when installing hardwood flooring in between the plank and the wall to maintain 1/2 inch extension gap. Since they are of random lengths, you will certainly have to mark and cut the planks as you are installing the flooring. Constantly start in a corner when installing wood flooring and the first board in the row must be a complete plank.

Down Year for Striped Bass Reproduction
10/16/2012 | Posted by jdavidsburgTags: Recreational, Commercial
Biologists attribute the drop to weather conditions
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) announced that the 2012 striped bass juvenile index - a measure of striped bass spawning success in Chesapeake Bay - is below the long-term average this year.
While we expect large variation in striped bass reproduction from year to year and do not view this low value as an imminent problem, we will be carefully monitoring the results of future surveys, said DNR Fisheries Director Tom OConnell. Three consecutive years of poor reproduction would be necessary to trigger mandatory conservation measures.
This years striped bass juvenile index came in at 0.9, the lowest on record. Last years survey showed the fourth highest result in the 59-year history of the survey. The long-term average is 12.
Striped bass spawning success can vary dramatically from year to year. Typically, several years of average reproduction are mixed with large and small year-classes. Environmental conditions such as flow rates and water temperature influence spawning success. The highly successful years of 1989, 1996, and 2001 were followed by below-average years.
Other anadromous species (fish that return to fresh water to spawn), such as white perch, yellow perch, and river herring, also experienced low reproductive success this year, likely due to weather conditions. Similarly, a survey conducted by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science documented poor striped bass spawning success in Virginias portion of Chesapeake Bay.
Generally, warm winters and dry springs are unfavorable conditions for fish that return to freshwater to spawn, said DNR Striped Bass Survey Director Eric Durell. The survey showed increased reproduction of fish species that spawn in higher salinities or offshore, such as Atlantic croaker and bay anchovies.
During this years survey, biologists counted more than 31,000 fish of 54 different species at 22 sites in the four major spawning systems - Choptank, Potomac and Nanticoke rivers, and the Upper Bay. DNR biologists visited each site monthly from July through September, collecting fish samples with two sweeps of a 100-foot beach seine. Juvenile indices are calculated as the average catch of young-of-year fish per sample.

Wouldn't science, scientists, and all the rest of us be better served if these sixteen and all the others in the scientific community would focus on designing better experiments to test the different global warming theories?
Certainly there is a political dimension to the issue, and an economic one, and scientists are entitled to have an opinion on these issues. But they seem to be an aside to the scientific problems -- which is where these men's expertise lies.

It seems that the majority of US engineers are clueless about global warming. The people who wrote the letter appear to be the usual mix of emeritus professors and people from other scientific endeavors - using their name to give themseolves some credibility.
80% of engineers in the UK say that global warming is real and only 10% do not. Thye don't have a continuous drumbeat from the ignorant press and Republicans.
Engineers in the US don't keep up to date with what is going on on the rest of the planet.

The entire CO2 debate (NOTE: There has never been an honest debate, under oath - only a 50 billion propaganda campaign sponsored by some "not so honest people"!
Just apply a little common sense, such as the WSJ article, and do your own "thorough" investigation - not difficult to do!
First, what are the two most important events for creating "all life on earth"?
The SUN & the wonderful trace gas CO2.
I have asked >50 people about "how much of the astmosphere is represented by CO2" & the answers ranged from a low of 3 % to 60 %? The actual is that all CO2 in the atmosphere is 0.04 % (their term is 390 parts/million) or 1 part in every 2500 parts! Also, remember that "water vapor" is 25 times more (1.0 %) abundant & creates the heat trapping clouds
A interesting science experiment would be to heat all the earth's Co2 & spread evenly back into the atmosphere - and there would "probably" be "NO TEMPERATURE CHANGE"!
Much more common sense (the internet has volumes of honest data - concentrate on some of the older info generated when science was factual); but we really need an honestd debate, under oath, to resolve this controversy!

Wall Street Journal Op-Ed?
Login to Rate
What is a scientist doing writing an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal rather than in the pages of the scientific journals publishing the papers discussing global warming? As Happer states in his op-ed, this is not the way science is supposed to work.
If you search for Happer in Google Scholar, you'll see that he has not published any research supporting his contentions that global warming is controvertible or that CO2 is not a greenhouse gas or that increasing greenhouse gas concentrations do not increase the energy of the earth's climate system thus forcing changes to achieve a new equilibrium. In fact his scant discussion of CO2 leaves completely undiscussed that last issue and its consequences, such as increased extreme weather. The question must be asked why?
I think that his closing paragraph sums up his real concern, and it is about corruption of the policy process, such as that which pushed for cap and trade as a free market answer, not that global warming is not occuring. For one, free market theory is a failed theory, as proven by the existence of bubbles and financial crises, and using it to serve to ameliorate human activity would more than likely result in a few gaming the system to their benefit without reducing greenhouse gas emissions and slowing global warming. But that is a question separate from whether human activity is causing global warming.
I suggest that Happer et al enter the debate through valid research. As it stands now it seems that he is actually concerned with the economic implications of global warming rather than its effects on life as we know it. He may be honestly concerned with the consequences of human activity and how to best minimize the harm we cause, but he hurts his cause by writing an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal or
First Things
First Things
is published by The Institute on Religion and Public Life
, an interreligious, nonpartisan research and education institute whose purpose is to advance a religiously informed public philosophy for the ordering of society."
I think that Happer et al have their own agenda, they should be honest enough to disclose it.

Re: Climate change evidence

CO2 is increasing, but it is not as simple as you indicate. CO2 is already at a concentration that achieves over 90% absorption at it's relatively narrow band of wavelengths. Doubling the CO2 concentration only increases the greenhouse effect by a few percentage points.
Advocates of the "hair on fire" scenario have to resort to the argument that small increases in warming, due to CO2, cause an increase in water vapor, which in turn really does cause more infrared absorption, hence more increases hence "hair of fire". This completely ignores the opposite feedback, where water vapor causes more clouds to form, which reflect incoming infrared and cause cooling.
Whether the positive feedback or the negative feedback win out is a complex issue that cannot be addressed so naively as "CO2 is a greenhouse gas and causes warming". It is quite likely that the negative feedback works like a thermostat and keeps the temperature relatively stable.
Note that NONE of the computer models so often quoted has a mechanism for cloud formation, not one. This in itself is an astonishing fact, given the absolute certainty with which their proponents declare our future climate.

Climate change evidence
Login to Rate
The article on the dissenting scientists misses a couple of important points. First, scientific truth is determined by evidence and logic, not by nose counts. But even considering numbers, the American Physical Society (of which I am a Life Member) has 50,000 members. Membership is not subject to any qualifying exam, nor (unlike religions or political parties) are dissenting members subject ot expulsion. I believe the other named societies are similar in this regard. Thus it's to be expected that there will be a few contrarians. incompetents, and members with conflicting affiliations within such organizations.
Second, the case for anthropogenic climate change is not based solely, nor even mainly, on weather records. It is predictable from well established physics and chemistry. We know the optical properties of CO2 and how it contributes to a "greenhouse effect." We also can plot the trend in CO2 concentration over a long historical period. This is from direct measurements in the last 50-100 years, and from ice core samples before that. (The two agree closely over the period where both are available.) The amount of extra CO2 corresponds to our consumption of fossil fuels since the industrial revolution began (correcting for that absorbed in known sinks). And isotopic analysis shows that the added CO2 is of fossil fuel origin.
As for the "natural" climate changes (Milankovich cycles) these take place over millenia, not decades, and according to the Milankovich theory we should be in a cooling phase now.
Permit a little analogy. If a kid is batting baseballs at the side of a house, one can predict from the scatter of trajectories and the kinetic energy of the ball that sooner or later he will break a window, even if he has not yet done so.
The legitimate debate in the scientific community is in the details of exactly how the effects of increased atmospheric heating will be manifested. (Which window will break and where will the pieces fall?)
We can think of the atmosphere as a heat engine (or an ensemble of engines), using temperature differences to perform work (wind, the water cycle, and other weather). Adding more heat the the "boiler" will make the engine work harder. This is likely to show up as intensified weather phenomena as well as a general temperature rise. If we wait until the catastrophe has already manifested itself to the satisfaction of the most die-hard deniers, it will be much to late to take any effective action.

climate change happens, get over it!

Mt. Pinatubo has been putting out greenhouse gasses over the last 20 years which total more than the total of all human emmission in recorded history. The recent eruptions in Iceland have emmitted enough CO2 to negate all "human" CO2 reductions over the last 4 years. The climate on this planet is changing and humans are extremely arrogant to think that their puny input into the system is driving the entire system. The planet climate changed before we were here, and it will keep changing after we are gone. The "climate change" program is nothing more than a way for left leaning politicals to get control of money and power.
I am not advocating a return to no pollution controls, but we need to use common sense.

Re: Remember, Spontaneous Generation theory
Login to Rate
Any time a so-called scientist cites a theory as 'fact', I need to take issue.
I remember a lot of the pseudo-scientific alarmist climate theories... from the no-atmosphere in the model 'nuclear winter', to global warming to global cooling and back again. In order to bring the alarmists together, who couldn't get their scary theories straight, 'climate change' was invented! What ever happened to the earth-killing ozone hole over the Antartic? Weren't we all supposed to be dead by now because of the 'incontrovertible' danger of this cataclysmic event?
Unfortunately, my experience has been that there are few real 'scientists' left... Science is based upon criticism and skepticism. I left my pursuit of Physics (with a special intersest in astrophysics/cosmology), not from a loss of interest, but because of the narrow-minded political focus of academia... and little better can be said of so-called 'private' research facilities, too. Everyone needs to make a buck, feed their families, pay off their student loans, and, unfortunately, we sell our skills for a price unless we're independently wealthy. Academics sells their skills usually for government or private grants, publications, and occasional media interest in the form of books, movies/video, consulting, etc. There is a major bias going on, and don't let anyone fool you into thinking there's not. The true scientific method really doesn't accept 'laws', it accepts theories that haven't been disproven yet. The 'climate change' that I am most concerned about is the 'climate' of the scientific community... namely the notion that the theory is 'fact', that this issue is not open to discussion and reasonable debate... they feel the matter's been settled and any dissenters are foolish, misguided, and not to be trusted. Hardly a climate suitable for scientific progress.
A great deal of money has been funnelled into the so-called 'green' industries... many of the industries focus upon renewable energy, such as solar, hydro, wind, etc. Many of the heavy metals used for photovoltaic cells are plentiful from Chinese mines, but not so much in the West. Just track the money, and I'm sure that 'sound, scientific' opinion will soon follow... but don't worry, there are those will will jump on the bandwagon just to 'fit-in' and be accepted by their peers.
Many of us accept that there may be global warming... but many of us aren't convinced that it's anthropogenic. Notable scientists from CERN noted a few months ago that the verdict was still out... that they felt that the huge fusion reactor only 93m miles from us, called our sun, was a major factor in 'climate change'... the sun goes through cycles of cooling off and heating... the solar spots recently leading to CME (coronal mass ejections/emissions) have had some minor inconveniences for satellites and communications, but these were from CMEs on the far side of the sun. Several cycles of solar activity will soon coincide, or super-impose, which prove to be very interesting... some are predicting a solar storm that hasn't been seen in 50+ years. Additionally, there's the question of geogenic contributions to global warming... what about greenhouse gases emitted from the Earth itself? I've read claims that humanity puts out X times the amount Y greenhouse gas than all of nature combined... really? Where's the data? How much greenhouse gas was emitted by active volcanoes? I've looked at USGS data, and I can only find sampling stations... yet this is a qualitative analysis, not a quantitative... yes, estimates could be made on fluid flow using CFD, but GIGO... if there's estimates, that's all they are... estimates, and my guess, SWAGs. Additionally, let's discuss other potential sources of emissions from the planet... geothermal vents, caves, springs, fissures from geologic shifting... and we're just talking about the those on the landmasses... think about marine sources as well. Let's also think about the biomass of the planet.... from oceanic algae to forestation... while in several third world countries we are cutting down trees for lumber, biofuel, etc. in the U.S. forestation has drastically increased since we not struggle to stop forest fires whether they are natural or man-made in origin. Additionally, let's consider the gravity merry-go-round our planet is riding at any given moment... Sometimes I think it is a miracle that our little planet has managed not to be flung into space or spiral into the sun by a passing massive body or be destroyed by an earth-killer, much like the one thought to be responsible for the moon. Variations in our orbital path could cause significant changes, as well as changes in both our magnetic poles and axis of rotation, which are also slowly changing.
I suspect that much of the AGW argument is based on a fear of humanity's 'power' to change the world... but geologic history has shown that the Earth has had cycles of ice ages and warm spells without human intervention. While I think humanty has a great ability to harm and destroy our own ecosystem on this rock, I suspect that our efforts to significantly terraform our own planet, apart from nuclear warfare, may be greatly exaggerated. I think blamining humanity may be a lazy cop-out... it may be true, and I'm open to it, but I'm not convinced yet, especially given the frenzied response to discredit, silence, and persecute dissenting opinion. Statistical cherry-picking and massaging of data has been seen, so, if the data is so incontrovertible, let's make it publically available for EVERYONE to look at... if it's so damning of us, can we see the data and statistical methods used, the research conducted, who's funding the research, and what's their stakes in it? I'd rather not take the word of some government-grant lackey spouting off in a journal next week just because he or she determines that oxygen and pure water are now categorized as 'pollutants' and we need to tax them to death, and the whole community agrees... I've read enough scientific journals to know that scientists typically guard their data like it was their immortal soul (not that they believe that have one), afraid that someone else may 'steal' their information and reach different conclusions, or, *gasp*, refute their claims... 'peer' review, if honestly done, may be sufficient for those who trust in it, but if we are truly talking a danger to all humanity, let's see more than their 'findings' and see the information be available for all to see, including the skeptics and nay-sayers. It may be available... if so, please let us know where we can find the the 'incontrovertible', 'irrefutable', 'undeniable' all-encompassing collected mass of evidence demonstrating that that AGW, not natural forces, are significantly and primarily responsible for life-endangering changes in climate... if we can see it, let us see the truth (and any nay-saying evidence as well) and let us become believers too...

Whisky is distilled from a selection of cereal grains. Each brings its own different character to the finished product, you can experience this by trying one of our 18 year old whiskies. We believe at eighteen years, the whisky still pertains the bite and power of youth, the can do attitude that only a teenager possesses, though coupled with a few more years of maturity and a little wisdom. Why not try one of our great Scotch whiskies. These are among the world's most flavourful spirits, with a broad reaching flavour profile, widely influenced by the terroir, which ranges form the placid undulations of Speyside, to the rocky crags of Skye. If you're an experienced connoisseur looking for something new, or are just starting out in the world of whisky, we have a dedicated team of whisky experts who are always delighted to assist in matters of malt, so feel free to contact us.

focused, challenging, transformational
Yoga guides me toward increasing inner freedom, deeper contentment and authentic connection with myself and others. Yoga provides inspiration, purpose and meaning. It is a path of healing the past and moving into my highest potential as a human being.
I believe yoga has the power to uplift, empower, and inspire people on all levels. I love facilitating the process of multi-dimensional self-discovery that is inevitable in this practice. Nothing is more satisfying than witnessing students tap into their unlimited potential, transform themselves and, as a result, influence the world for the better.
Applying the ancient wisdom teachings of yoga in all aspects of my life and sharing these teachings with others in ways that are practical and easily accessible.

NORFOLK The 60-year-old Norfolk man whose actions led Norwood-Norfolk Central School officials to lock down their buildings Friday morning posted a $100,000 bond Saturday and was released from jail.
State police charged Steven R. Wells with third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, first-degree harassment and fourth-degree stalking Friday following an early morning incident at the school. He was wearing a shoulder holster with a black Desert Eagle BB pistol, which is considered an imitation pistol, beneath his jacket, troopers said.
According to documents filed with Norfolk Town Court, Mr. Wells arrived at the school at approximately 7:20 a.m. and asked a secretary if he was in the right building to see teacher Kaylene Pernice.
He said he had something he had to give to her, and I asked him if he could just leave it for her, the secretary said in her statement to police. He advised me he had to give it to her in person by orders of his boss. He said he was from Syracuse and had to give it to her.
The secretary told troopers she told Mr. Wells she would check to see if Ms. Pernice had arrived at school yet, and the visitor asked if he could use a bathroom. The secretary said she directed Mr. Wells to the faculty bathroom and then contacted Ms. Pernice and informed her there was a visitor to see her.
She said Ms. Pernice immediately suspected the visitor might be Mr. Wells, said he was stalking her and urged the secretary to contact an administrator. She said high school Principal Robin Fetter responded to the area, intercepted Mr. Wells when he left the bathroom and took him to a school office.
Mr. Wells was denied access to the school by the administration, and law enforcement was notified. He was taken into custody without incident in the middle school office, according to state police. They said because of the lockdown procedures initiated by school administration at the beginning of the incident, Mr. Wells was not able to gain access to the interior of the school, and no students were placed in any type of danger as a result of the incident.
Ms. Pernice, in a seven-page statement given to state police, said she that had met Mr. Wells approximately two weeks earlier and that his behavior had become increasingly erratic in the days before Fridays incident.
Mr. Wells reportedly called and texted her numerous times over the next few days and suggested he wanted to buy tickets so that she and her son could join him in Florida. He also offered to buy tickets for Ms. Pernice and her friends to attend a concert at the Turning Stone Casino in Verona. She rejected those offers.
She said over the next few days Mr. Wells continued to call and text her with minimal response. She said he asked her Jan. 21 whether he could see her later in the week, and she told him she was not interested.
That led to seven text messages between 1:40 a.m. and 5:11 a.m. Jan. 22, and Ms. Pernice told troopers that she told Mr. Wells to stop calling and texting her. But he reportedly continued to call and text Ms. Pernice. I would not take his calls, and he would leave voice mails on my cellphone, she said in her statement to troopers.

Since joining the football staff in the summer of 2012, Joey McIntyre has had an active role in making certain the program runs smoothly behind the scenes as the director of football operations.
No stranger to the Upper Valley, McIntyre is a Vermont native and attended Castleton State, where he received his bachelor's degree in sports administration while minoring in coaching and business administration. He went on to join the staff at the Upper Valley Aquatic Center in White River Junction, Vt., when the facility opened its doors in 2009, elevating from a part-time employee to the director of customer services.
Meanwhile, McIntyre also served as the wide receivers coach and the freshman defensive coordinator at Hartford High School, which has won the state title four of the past five years, including 2011 with a perfect 11-0 record. Among his responsibilities were summer camp, preseason and in-season practice planning, and charting offensive and defensive plays.
McIntyre took a postgraduate year at Bridgton Academy and played football there, then went to Bryant University to play on the gridiron. He transferred to Castleton State and was a member of the hockey and lacrosse programs while earning his degree.

The Illusionist (L'illusionniste)
"The Illusionist" is a story about two paths that cross. An outdated, aging magician, forced to wander from country to country, city to city and station to station in search of a stage to perform his act meets a young girl at the start of her life?s journey. Alice is a teenage girl with all her capacity for childish wonder still intact. She plays at being a woman without realizing the day to stop pretending is fast approaching. She doesn't know yet that she loves The Illusionist like she would a father; he already knows that he loves her as he would a daughter. Their destinies will collide, but nothing -- not even magic or the power of illusion -- can stop the voyage of discovery.
