: : Crack The Bat
Crack of the Bat: The Next Big Deal
Patrick Ebert
Friday, March 19, 2010
Quite often one player can define any given draft year. Last year we followed the exploits of Stephen Strasburg, whose success has carried into this spring as one of the bigger stories in Major League Baseball out of the Washington Nationals spring training camp. With the ability to throw his fastball consistently in the mid-to-upper 90s, to go along with a killer breaking ball and impressive command, he has been the most hyped (and so far deservedly so) draft prospect ever.
This year we're following an equally interesting story in Bryce Harper.
Harper's story is unprecedented as a 17-year-old who should be a junior in high school, but currently is playing for the College of Southern Nevada. There is more skepticism about his game and eventual ceiling than what surrounded Strasburg, but nevertheless, Harper remains the top prospect available for this year's draft.
Following in the footsteps of those two players will be no easy task, at least from a media and interest standpoint, but fans of teams that could pick at or near the top of the 2011 draft should prepare themselves for the next player who is poised to receive a considerable amount of attention and hype between now and next year.
That player is Rice third baseman Anthony Rendon.
Rendon is coming off a very successful freshman campaign in which he was named the national freshman of the year by numerous publications. And he's picked up where he left off, and then some, this season.
Scouts who have seen Rendon rave about his hitting ability, with a great swing, bat speed and the ability to master the strike zone. While you can never take statistics posted by amateur players too seriously, a quick glance of Rendon's leads you to believe he is clearly dominating his competition.
That comes down to walks and home runs.
Rendon is leading the nation in walks with 29 and has slugged seven home runs. Ten of those walks and four of those home runs came last week, in which four of his games were played against a Cal team that boasts some pretty good pitching. He recently added another pair of bases on balls and a home run in his most recent start, a mid-week game against the Texas Longhorns.
Basically, when he gets a pitch to hit, he crushes it, and when he doesn't, he doesn't swing at it. He's getting on base at better than a 60 percent clip, and he has struck out only six times in 18 games.
His freshman year was very comparable to another college star, former Vanderbilt Commodore Pedro Alvarez, the second overall pick of the 2008 draft.
Rendon hit .388/.461/.702 in 242 at-bats last season, with 14 doubles, 20 home runs, 72 RBI and 170 total bases. He walked 31 times versus 23 strikeouts and committed 12 errors at the hot corner.
Alvarez hit .329/.456/.675 in 240 at-bats in 2006, his freshman year, with 15 doubles, 22 home runs, 64 RBI and 162 total bases. He walked 57 times versus 64 strikeouts and committed 16 errors at third.
Outside of the offensive numbers the two are capable of posting, that is pretty much where the comparison ends for the two players.
Rendon, a right-handed hitter, has a modest build, listed at 5-foot-11 and 180 pounds, as compared to the 6-foot-3, 230-pound plus Alvarez, a left-handed hitter. Rendon also profiles to play third base at a Gold Glove level, as some have even suggested he could play second base given his quickness and natural athleticism. Alvarez's size, especially if he continues to add weight to his large frame, may cause him to slide across the diamond to first base in the next few years.
None of this is meant to take anything away from Alvarez, who is one of the top prospects in the game and a cornerstone-type of talent the Pittsburgh Pirates can build around. However, it does illustrate just how good of a hitter and overall player Anthony Rendon could be at the next level.
Of course there is a lot of baseball left to be played not only this year (he will once again be in the national spotlight this weekend as Rice travels to San Diego to face prominent draft-eligible pitching prospects Sammy Solis and Kyle Blair), but next year as well. As it stands right now, Rendon is my pick to become the next big thing when it comes to following draft-eligible prospects over the next 12 to 15 months.
Competition for the Top Spot
UCLA's Gerrit Cole and Texas' Taylor Jungmann would likely take offense to this proclamation, as they too are very talented sophomores who are off to very good starts this year.
Coming off of a dominating 17-strikeout performance over Iowa, Jungmann leads the nation in strikeouts with 43. Just behind him is Cole, tied for second with 41. Cole is also among the leaders in opponent's batting average at .136, as few players can dominate a game with their fastball alone like he can.
Most impressive for Cole this season is how drastically improved his control has been. In more than 25 innings of work he has issued only four walks, after he walked nearly a batter every-other inning a year ago.
Jungmann has given up only three earned runs this year in 29 innings, leading to an ERA (0.93) below 1.00. Command hasn't been an issue for him so far during his college career, as he was equally impressive a year ago as a freshman playing off of his fastball-slider one-two punch.
Both Cole and Jungmann serve as the Friday aces for their respective teams. Both UCLA (currently ranked fifth in the country by Perfect Game) and Texas (sixth), boast arguably the two most dominating pitching staffs in the nation, currently ranked second and third in the nation, respectively, in team ERA.
In a previous column, I detailed that the 2011 draft will be strong in college pitching. The presence of these three players in particular from the college level could make next year's draft not only strong at the top, but one of the stronger collections of talents overall in recent years.

We come together because God has forgiven our sins and is changing us into new beings through the Love and Compassion of Jesus Christ. We are a nondenominational church where you can truly become a part.
When you visit the Church of our Lord Jesus, you will be greeted and assisted in locating where you want to go. We are respectful of your time, our worship assembly will last about one hour. Visitors are not required to participate in any aspect of the worship service and may just watch if they wish.
The people who make up the family of the Church come from all walks of life and have the normal pains, discouragement and problems. But, we face each challenge with the assurance that God provides for his children. You will find that we are an enthusiastic family very eager to spend eternity in heaven.
The Eufaula Church of Christ is a safe haven where you too can experience love, acceptance and forgiveness. If you are in search of a home church, we want you to know there is a special place just for you.
We are fully aware that we are not perfect and make mistakes far too often. We do not ask you to follow us, but to walk along with us as we follow in the footsteps of Jesus, always seeking to "walk in the light". But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. (1 John 1:7)

We understand that many people want to know the nature of the services of a church before they attend. We are happy to share the following overview of the manner in which we worship, when we gather together.
We actively seek to be governed in all that we do only by the Holy Bible, which is the inspired Word of God. Sometimes we are asked: Does what we teach really make much difference? If it matters and it does, we must be able to support our beliefs by the Word of God. We would invite you to consider the principles upon which the Church is based and the Holy Scriptures referenced.
2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Our services are patterned after the Church of the first century, which were
very simple. Our worship services include only those elements revealed in the New Testament.
We sing, pray, partake of the Lordâs supper, preach the Word of God for the instruction of all and give of our means, as we have purposed in our hearts for the spreading of the gospel and the care of poor.
Each part is designd to bring all worshipers closer to God and to provide Spiritual Strength. In all we do, we seek to follow the teaching of Jesus Christ.
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
The religious world of today is divided into almost countless denominations and
sects, using different traditions and names. Finding no scriptural support, we use no denominational governmental organization, creed, doctrine or name.
We are known as Christians, just as believers were known in the days of the Apostles, when there was only one Church. Collectively, we are known as the Church of Christ.
Salute one another with an holy kiss. The churches of Christ salute you.
And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
All the men leading the worship service, except for our preacher, Charlie Bailey, are volunteers who are members of the Church.
Several prayers are offered to God during each service. The man leading the prayer will speak from his heart, rather than reading from a book or reciting a series of memorized statements. Everyone usually quietly bows their heads and closes their eyes while the prayer is being offered.
1Timothy 2:1
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
The congregation will sing several songs, led by one of our members during the service. You are welcome to sing along. The song leader will announce the number of the song. The words and music can be found in the red book, in the rack in front of you.
Since we live and worship under the New Covenant or Testament, members of the Church of Christ sing without the aid of any type of instrumental music. This was the pattern set by the early Church in the first century and therefore is the pattern we follow.
In the Old Testament they did, in fact, worship God with harps and other instruments. However, in the New Testament there is no directive or mention of using any type of musical instrument in the worship of God. Only vocal music is mentioned in the Church of the New Testament, so we use only our voices in this part of the service. This type of music is called acappella.
Does it really matter? It matters to those who wish to strictly obey and be pleasing to God, rather than following the ideas and doctrines of men. The Christian gives of himself, in worship, when he sings from the heart and his spirit is lifted.
Ephesians 5:19
Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Colossians 3:16
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
The Lord's Supper
The Lord's Supper or Communion is served every Sunday to all who wish to partake. Jesus instituted His Supper for us to remember what he did for us on the Cross. After offering a prayer, men will pass plates of unleavened bread. All those who wish to partake will remove a small piece and pass the plate to the person sitting next to them. Next, after offering thanks to God, the men will pass trays of small cups of the grape juice. Those who partake, remove one, drink it, return the cup to the tray and pass it on.
Acts 20:7
And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow
1 Corinthians 11:23-26
For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the New Testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
Giving of Our Means
Our regular members give of their means and lay by in store, as God had prospered them, every Sunday in order to support the various ministries of the Church. Visitors are not expected to contribute, unless they wish to. Immediately following the Lord's Supper, after a brief prayer, plates are passed for the purpose of collecting the offerings.
1 Corinthians 16:2
Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
2 Corinthians 9:7
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
Our preacher, Charlie Bailey will deliver a lesson from the Bible, which is usually 25 minutes in length. Charlie's messages are designed to be informative, positive and encouraging. He does not use titles, such as Reverend or Pastor, and prefers to be called Charlie.
Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
2 Timothy 4:2
Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
At the conclusion of his message, Charlie will offer the wonderful invitation of Christ for the salvation of anyone's soul, who truly believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who will freely confess His name before men, repents of your past sins and is buried with Christ in baptism. While the congregation stands and sings, an opportunity is provided for people to come to the front pew and discuss their needs with Charlie.
Mark 16:15-16
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
You Will Not Be Embarrassed.
When you visit us, it is as a welcomed and honored guest. While people are urged from the pulpit to accept the gospel or to repent of their sins, no individual or group is ever singled out for public attention.
Expect a Friendly Spirit.
People who truly love God have a natural attitude of friendliness. Our guests always receive a warm welcome. You will appreciate the courtesy and cordiality of these loving Christian men and women.
We sincerely hope you will accept our invitation, to attend any of our services,
at your earliest possible convenience.
The Church of Christ at Eufaula exists to give honor, glory and praise to God through Benevolence, Evangelism, Edification, Spiritual Growth, Fellowship, Worship and Glorification of God. We accomplish this through study, prayer and involvement, using only the Bible as our authority and guide.
John 4:23
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Steps required by GOD to become a Member
The Church of Christ
Accept the wonderful invitation of Christ for the salvation of your soul. Confess his name before men, repent of your past sins and be buried with Christ in baptism. At that moment you will have obeyed the Lordâs commandments and God will add you to the Church and write your name in the Book of Life.
The following provides details regarding each required step.
Hear the Word, by attending services of the Church of Christ.
Romans 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
John 5:24-25
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
Truly Believe in God and that Jesus is His Son.
Mark 16:15-16
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
Sincerely Repent of your past Sins
Romans 3:23
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Acts 17:30
And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Luke 13:3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Confess Jesus before men.
Luke 12:8
Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:
1 John 4:15
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
Matthew 10:32-33
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven
Be Baptized
Colossians 2:12
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Acts 2:38
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Remain Faithful until death
Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast [some] of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
If you live in or plan
to visit the Lake Eufaula area, Charlie Bailey, the Minister of
Church of Christ stands ready to assist you in learning the TRUTH, in any way
possible. You are invited to make a complete investigation of the doctrine of
Christ or any part thereof and Charlie would be delighted to personally discuss
any point or answer any question.

A message to Current Members of the Church of Christ
Who are planning their retirement
Lake Eufaula is a Great Place To Retire.
Our Congregation Needs You.
We are located near highway 69, just 25 miles north of McAlester, Oklahoma, nestled on the shores of Lake Eufaula. The village of Eufaula is a wonderful place to live, work, and play. You don't have to look very far to find a friendly face and a warm smile.
Lake Eufaula is a great fishing lake (the largest in Oklahoma) with good hunting in the area.
Property taxes are quite low and quality housing can be purchased at very reasonable prices.
We are a stable, conservative, main-line mission church. Charlie Bailey, our full time Minister, has served the congregation, since 1989.
We need sound workers to retire in our area to help in the work of the Master. Come and visit to get acquainted. Spend a few days vacation and get to know us.
If you love the Lord and want to remain active in His vineyard when you
retire, this is your opportunity.

My sylist cuts my hair dry, and then washes my hair. Sometimes I point out a curl to her if it's out of place.
It is true that the hair can dry differently, especially when you style it yourself, and then the curls will be out of place. I think it's perfectly acceptable to call and ask for a touch up free of charge. But most devacuts are a little uneven at the ends, if only because the curls are different. You may find you just prefer wet cuts.
I also agree that specifying getting your ends cut so it looks nice curly and straight is a good idea.

Critical Kush From Private Dealer (tryptamine)
ACK! I wish we had more pictures to post…this looks awesome. I kinda think this should be a hybrid though, cause Critical Mass is a hybrid itself.
Submitted By: tryptamine (Member and Editor)
Camera Used: Unknown
Name: Critical Kush
From: Private Dealer – Ontario, Canada
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Genetics: Critical Mass x Kush
Price: $45/3.5g, $280/28g
Looks: Dense olive green buds frosted in trichomes and a few hairs. This marijuana was very well cured and was quite dry.
Smell: Strong Kush smell with a unique spice hint to it.
Taste: The taste is very Kush-like with a strong spice to it. The smoke is very smooth and tastes very earthy on exhale.
Buzz Type: Strong. This is a potent Indica strain that packs a VERY strong punch. I find this strain is very useful for meditative purposes as it induces a calming euphoria. This strain also tends to make me quite tired and lazy after I comedown and is great for sleep. A definite couch lock strain that gives you strong munchies afterwards.
Buzz Length: Long. 2 medium bowls keeps me high for 2.5 hours!
Overall: I'm really impressed with this great Kush strain. A great strain I recommend any Kush connoisseur to sample. I really wish I had more of this stuff around –tryptamine
Related Reviews
Blackberry Velvet – I wonder if member Kush Connoisseur has had Critical Kush?
Pre 98 Bubba Kush - I am kind of in love with this strain. Wonder if the dispensary is still open?
Critical Mass – Great details, but not the best representation of the strain.
Critical Mass – I'm not really down with a "vegetable taste".

Leicestershire firm Cooke Optics involved in movie classics to receive industry 'Oscar'
Posted: January 23, 2013|
From Charlie Chaplin films to Star Wars and James Bond movies – for 128 years camera lenses made by Cooke Optics have helped capture magical moments in cinema history.
Now, the Thurmaston company's contribution to cinematography will be recognised when it receives an Oscar at this year's Academy Awards.
The company's US owner said the golden statuette will be flown back to the United Kingdom where it will take pride of place in the factory.
Lenses made by Cooke have been used to shoot films including Gone with the Wind, Superman and Silence of the Lambs.
On the small screen, they have been used by the producers of TV shows such as Downton Abbey and True Blood.
Les Zellan, the company's chairman, will pick up the Oscar at the academy's scientific and technical awards, at Beverly Hills Hotel, in Los Angeles, five days before the main awards.
Speaking to the Leicester Mercury from his base in New Jersey, he said: "This really does mean a lot.
"It recognises the company for the first time and the enormous contribution it has made.
"Over the years there have been people within the company who have been recognised but this is a first for the company so it's a big deal.
Les, who used to distribute Cooke lenses in the States, bought the company over a decade ago.
He said: "I have been racking my brains trying to work out if there's a company which has been involved in the motion picture industry as long as we have but I can't – we have been around longer than Kodak."
Cooke lenses were first made in 1894, when the company was owned by precision instrument maker Taylor Hobson, of Leicester.
It moved to its current premises, in Cooke Close, off Earls Way, Thurmaston, in the late 1990s.
The lenses are still made using the same techniques as 100 years ago, though now combined with state-of-the-art technology.
Les will attend the awards ceremony with chief executive, Robert Howard, who is based at the factory in Thurmaston, plus two employees from the production floor.
Mr Howard said "It is wonderful when you stop and think these lenses, each hand-crafted in Leicester, can wing their way all over the world and create images that reach millions of people.
"This award is a tremendous honour that celebrates the talent and dedication of our team, past and present."
Les said: "The company has almost 90 people working for it and we are standing on the shoulders of giants.
"I'm lucky to be the guy who gets to stand up at the end of it and accept the award.
"Cooke is well known in the industry but this will raise our profile outside it."

Exchange GRT backup fails with status 10 (allocation error) - FT transport
Anyone experience this error allocation error(status 10) on SAN Client exchange GRT backup using the Appliance 5220 as the media server (transport type is FT).
I noticed that if I am using the Domain user account on Netbackup Client Service, I am getting the status 10 error, but if it is local system account it writes to the STU but it is not for GRT use.
Any possible solution on this?
Exchange GRT backup fails with status 10 (allocation error) - FT transport
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
I would be surprised if you can do GRT backups using the Fibre Transport method to be honest (haven't see any docs about it though!)
GRT uses NFS to mount the information store and then back it up using GRT - NFS (network file system) as the name suggests is not a protocol that will run over fibre so I am guessing that GRT only works via the LAN.
Happy to be corrected if anyone knows better!

Don't forget to "Mark as Solution" if someones advice has solved your issue - and please bring back the Thumbs Up!!.
Hi Mukamo.
I'm having the same problem. I actually confirmed this with Symantec last year some time before implementing this and it is supposed to work. GRT backup does not use NFS, the NFS service is only invoked during the restore operations when the backup image is mounted and exported to the client via NFS/NBFSD. The initial backup pass/data transfer happens as a normal backup would. GRT backup processing then happens after the backup image is secured by the media server as a "post-write" process. The problem we are having, is that SAN Client/FT backups require the netbackup services to run as local system, and GRT requires the services to run as a user with exchange permissions.
Please let me know if you case has been resolved yet, as I am still awaiting feedback from Symantec.

This week on the "Tonight Show" actor and rapper Ice-T talked about his foray into the virtual world industry when he discussed his partnership with IMVU, a website where users can adopt virtual personas in a virtual world and buy virtual things from virtual vendors. Users never actually get the things they pay real money for. (Even Ice-T had to remark on the ignorance of the users who utilize that feature.) Ice-T is one of these virtual vendors, having set up (no shocker here), a tattoo parlor and a gun store. (No surprise from a grown man from the hood who proudly recounted his days wearing rollers and house–shoes…to school!) It is what it is, but it's nothing to brag about. And neither is Ice-T's "Twitter gang".
Ice-T explained how he encourages his Twitter followers to gang-up on fellow Tweeters if they express disagreement/discontent with something he Tweets. Ice-T commands that his "Twitter gang" intimidate the dissenting Tweeter until s/he surrenders or closes the account. The need for this kind of control is pathetic, and only perpetuates the stereotypes of the frightening Black man.
One of the sad things about the Hip-Hop culture is that it doesn't encourage its community to grow up. Grown men are walking around with their pants to their knees and sporting t-shirts and hoodies like honor badges letting everyone know they're part of a sub-culture that promotes the immature attitudes of misguided youth, not to mention the ever present violence.
You can take the boy out of the hood and you can actually take the hood out of the boy-if you chose. The fact that Ice-T has created a longstanding career as an entertainer and surpassed the circumstances of his childhood environment is a pretty outstanding achievement; one that should come with some sense of responsibility, and some basic common sense.
Too many young Black men are still dying-being murdered by each other with guns. Just this week here in New York Brian Scott, a Black eighteen year-old high school senior was gunned down after school while hanging out with his friends over nothing. With great opportunity comes great accountability. A Black man in the public eye should feel compelled to be part of the solution, not the problem.
Okay, it's just a virtual game but it promotes a violent attitude and lifestyle. In fairness, Ice-T does his share of charity work, but if he in fact has a level of commitment to youth, then can't the commitment and consciousness be carried over into his money making ventures? There are plenty of ways to make money that don't further contribute to the crisis of violence among young people and society as a whole. Does Ice-T need money that badly? (How many outfits from Frederick's of Hollywood does Coco really need?)
Again, it's time to redefine "keeping it real". It should no longer mean being illiterate, insolent and hostile. We shouldn't need to use the fact that a Black man is President to motivate other Black men in or out of the spotlight to step it up-period. We're not asking Ice-T to turn into Hill Harper, but to think of the real ramifications of his choices. A Black man selling virtual guns is an actual shame.
What do you think of Ice-T's new venture?

Talent and creativity abound in the Art of Quilting feature in Love of Quilting.
30" x 20", 2008
Tracey Pereia is a native of England, and has the distinction of being one of the first three people in the UK to own and operate a longarm quilting machine. She made this quilt for her husband, a fan of Mini Coopers and the 1969 movie The Italian Job, starring Michael Caine. It is essentially a wholecloth—Tracey sketched the pictorial elements in one continuous line with freehand machine quilting. The skyline even spells out "mini" in very small type. She added color and dimension with Derwent Inktense coloring pencils. Tracey is a teacher and judge with the Quilters Guild of the British Isles, and she recently designed a series of robotic and computerized quilting and embroidery systems.

The Way of Art. ~ Brooke Gessay
Photo Courtesy of SCIENCE JERK
Declaration on the Value of Art
Art is valuable. It is an expression and a conversation about being alive on earth, particularly as human beings, and how strange, bewildering and achingly beautiful this whole play can be. Art is a way of gathering what exists in the unique territory of a person's or group of people's subjectivity, and moving it out into the collective space for other people to experience. Art connects us as humans.
Art is valuable. It points out the ordinary as extraordinary so that we can more vividly see our world. Some art ignites a felt sense of a common source and interconnectedness with all that exists. Some art pisses us off or shakes us awake to a truth that moves us into action. Art points out how things are and points toward how things can be. It shifts our perspectives and states of consciousness. Art engages, exercises, and opens our minds, while transmitting wisdom beyond the limitations of mind. Art is medicine for sickness in our psyches and it is also a slap in the face when our eyes glaze over and we forget to be curious.
Art is valuable. It lets people have and tell their stories, and in doing so, liberates them from identifying solely as those stories. Art is a friend to paradox, unanswerable questions, madness and peace. Art affirms the truth of both linearity and circularity. Art is you, and art is me, and art is everything–and art helps us to know that. It invites or demands a quality of attention from our perceiving of the world, which, when engaged, can start to notice art everywhere. This way of seeing can literally be reason to keep living, and in this way, art saves us. It lets us celebrate and grieve our world of duality, instead of trying to figure it all out.
Art is valuable. It reaches an arm into the unknown and brings back evidence that our finite lives are happening inside of infinity. On that dizzying perspective, art gets us drunk, drunk enough to tell more of the truth. And when we tell the truth it rings like a bell, it buzzes in our cells, and maybe we can feel more alive and less afraid.
Art is invaluable, as a way of being and a way of communicating, accessible to all people without exception.

Loving it, Brooke. I've been thinking about this since I first read it a few days back, and have been more clearly realizing the degree to which my art and my "self" are so deeply intertwined.
While the artwork itself is an "object out there", an "artifact", the art-creating itself is a process, and the process of making art (from the first trickle of inspiration to the final brushstroke to publishing it on FB or delivering it to the gallery) changes me, deepens and widens my capacity for being present with whatever is going on in/around me, broadens my scope and capacity for perspective-taking.
It's a remarkable play – I often don't know what is happening in me, until I create the art, and can see it "out there", and then reflect back on what's "in here". But the art/artifact I've brought into being also pulls me into an ongoing evolutionary unfoldment. Just because I'm the artist, does not mean that I'm not impacted by witnessing the finished artifact – and this, to me, is kinda shocking. It continues to work me, to pull me toward taking greater responsibility for my own authenticity-of-being. The artwork of others, be it dance, film, music, etc is clearly a catalyst for my own transformation/translations, but what's remarkable to me is that the work that comes from me is also a potent catalyst.
This is a pretty sloppy outpouring of thoughts – just wanted to share the emerging insight that your writing sparked in me.
Keep it coming, Brooke, your eloquence and passion are invaluable.
Bryce – thank you for your comment! I love what you are saying. I can so relate to the strange, mysterious experience of watching and nudging along some kind of idea or energy fom "in here" into an object or event "out there." It honestly really scares me when I am at all outside of the process, in any way reflecting or analyzing, but when I can somehow release completely into the process, it is one of the most transformative and exhilerating processes I've known. I very much agree with you & Ryan that it is intimately connected with other kinds of contemplative practices, in bringing the unknown right here. Thank you so much for being in conversation. I would be happy to hear more of your thoughts any time!
Wow, I am so glad I got to read this. I feel really inspired.
Lindsey, that it so cool to hear. Thank you for reading.
Art is also difficult to convey via syllables. Thank you for this.
Especially for: " Art is a way of gathering what exists in the unique territory of a person's or group of people's subjectivity, and moving it out into the collective space for other people to experience." & for "It reaches an arm into the unknown and brings back evidence that our finite lives are happening inside of infinity. On that dizzying perspective, art gets us drunk, drunk enough to tell more of the truth."

Force of Nature: The David Suzuki Movie
Release Date: Oct 20, 2010
Genre: Documentary
Rating: (NR)
User reviews on Force of Nature: The David Suzuki Movie
This doc**entary was absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. David Suzuki is a wonderful person and definitely deserves a film just like this one. I know there are a lot of doc**entaries about saving the environment but this film was different because the subject is such a warm and charming guy and you want to listen to him and do what he says. The film was very informative and clear and I was really moved by Suzui's life story. Overall, I hope this film reaches a wide audience because it is a great film about a great man with a very important message.
This is a doc**entary about Canadian environmentalist David Suzuki, the film is directed by Sturla Gunnarsson and stars David Suzuki. I really enjoyed watching this film and I highly recommend seeing it in the theaters. The film is very interesting, engaging and warm, I had a great time watching it. The film has very passionate environmentalist arguments as well as warm biographical portrait. I think that the film is not only about Suzuki but also about the power of ideas that he spreads, this film made me think and I love movies like that. I hope this film reaches a wide audience because it has very important messages that are presented in an easy and approachable way. Overall, this film is definitely worth seeing.

how do I delete a task when I view "today"
every day i look at today. sometimes there is a task that is no longer appropriate , or it's a repeating task that I don't need to do this week. it's not appropriate to postpone the task or to mark it as completed. I just want to delete that task from my today box. as if it was going on to completed list, but into another list - deleted/not done. is this possible (on iphone)?
I've tried to find question place in iphone support but can only find lists of existing questions.
All responses
Hi KayKante,
The Today view will only show tasks that are due today, so if it's a repeating task that is everyday, or happens to be Today, it will show up, as it needs to be done.
What is the due date of these tasks that are showing up? If you search for them, where are they located? Does this only happen on the iPhone app, or on the web version as well?

Feature: Is Ghana Africa's greatest hope 2014 World Cup in Brazil?
FOUR years ago, the African nations bonded around one country in the World Cup knock-out rounds.
Despite hosting the tournament for the first time in the event's history, the African nations continued to struggle in the group stage and only saw one of its neighbours manage a berth in the round of 16.
That nation was Ghana and it carried the hopes of a continent. Despite falling short, the run was one of the most impressive in Africa's history.
Ghana is arguably the best African side at this year's World Cup in Brazil, but the team is faced with a monumental group to overcome. Can Ghana prove to be among the world's elite in 2014?
Ghana's first ever World Cup appearance came in 2006 when the team was placed into a group that included Italy, the United States and the Czech Republic.
The African contingent, also known as the Black Stars, lost 2-0 against Italy in its debut but defeated the Czechs 2-0 and topped the Americans 2-1 in a game that determined both teams' group fates.
Ghana would move on to the knockout rounds where it would have to take on a tough Brazilian side; Brazil won 3-0.
Four years later in 2010, Ghana was back at the World Cup in a group that included Serbia, Germany and Australia. The team topped Serbia 1-0 before tying Australia 1-1.
In the final game, Ghana lost against Germany but managed to qualify due to having a better goal difference than Australia; the Socceroos lost 4-0 against Germany in their opener and possessed a -3 difference while Ghana was even.
In the knockout rounds, Ghana renewed its rivalry with the United States and managed a 2-1 win in extra time. In the quarterfinals, Ghana was tasked with taking down a surging Uruguay. Ghana blew a 1-0 lead and then was handed a penalty in the waning seconds of the match after Luis Suarez stopped a shot into an empty net with his hands.
Asamoah Gyan had a chance to win it in extra time but fired it over the net. On the ensuing penalty shootout, Uruguay eliminated Ghana 4-2.
How they got here
Ghana was placed into a group that included Lesotho, Sudan and Zambia.
The team dominated the entire group with five wins and one loss and became the highest scoring African side of the group stage with 18 goals scored and only three conceded. The team's lone defeat was away at Zambia.
In the ensuing round, Ghana was tasked with taking on Egypt, the only undefeated team from the first round. Many felt that this knockout round would be the one to watch, but in the opening 90 minutes Ghana made everyone forget about this tie.
The team destroyed Egypt 6-1. Egypt won 2-1 in the second leg, but it was not enough to overcome the opening leg destruction at the hand of Ghana.
Top Stars
Gyan led Ghana with six goals in the qualifiers.
Gyan is undoubtedly the team's top star, and at 28, he is likely playing in his final World Cup as a starter. He has 39 goals in 78 matches for the Black Stars and will be counted on to score the big goals. The team will also rely heavily on Kevin-Prince Boateng to control the midfield play.
The Ayew brothers Andre and Jordan will also be likely fixtures in their debut tournament. Sulley Muntari and Michael Essien will also likely be called on to the lead the team in the midfield.
Can they get out of the group?
Ghana is a quick side with tremendous offensive potential. The problem in this tournament could be about containing German's tremendous offense and Portugal's superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
Group G has been repeatedly labelled as the Group of Death because it includes Germany, Portugal and the United States. Ghana and the United States have a history and a favorable one at that for the African nation.
As noted above, these two sides have met in the last two tournaments; Ghana has won both games 2-1. The teams previously met in 1983 when Ghana topped the US in two different tournaments.
Ghana has never lost against the US and could leverage this to its advantage.
But Germany is another issue altogether. The Germans took down Ghana in 2006 and are the favorites in this group. Ghana might have the attacking prowess to take down the German contingent, but its defense is likely to wilt against the European side's bravura and superiority.
Portugal is not a complete side. Most would point to its lack of quality midfielders and lack of attacking options aside from Cristiano Ronaldo.
The old motto is that, if you shut down CR7, then Portugal has no plan B. But the big issue here is whether Ghana can truly shut down Ronaldo at all. He is playing at his best right now and will be more determined than ever to place his stamp on the international tournament.
Can they win it all?
Negative: Ghana is a terrific offensive side, but it lacks the skill or defense to truly make the run necessary to win it all. A knock-out round berth is possible if Portugal or Germany slip, but that is not likely given the quality of the two sides. Look for Ghana to finish third in this group!?

Spicy Stir Fried Prawns with Cashew Nuts
Gok says: "There is so little wastage when cooking Chinese food – if making a king prawn dish like this one, all the shells and prawn heads can be used to make a delicious stock. When you've shelled the prawns – I always wear a pair of rubber gloves when I'm preparing this dish, as I can't stand the smell of prawns on my hands – pile the shells, tails and heads into a pan of boiling water, add some garlic and smashed ginger and you have a gorgeous and tasty stock. Use this stock to add flavour and balance to any dish, be it meat, fish or vegetables. This is how cooking should be – free! As Poppa Wan always says, 'No waste it . . . it add fravor, innit!'"
- For the stock
- 4 cm piece of fresh ginger, cut in half and roughly bruised
- 2 – 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and roughly bruised
- shells and heads from 8 raw king prawns (prawns used below)
- For the stir-fry
- 2 tblsp groundnut oil
- 2 cm piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
- 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
- 4 spring onions, trimmed, green and white parts separated, whites roughly bruised
- 8 raw king prawns, peeled and de-veined
- 3 sticks of celery, trimmed and thinly sliced on the diagonal
- 1 long red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
- salt and ground white pepper
- 1 – 2 teaspoons shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
- 2 tsp light soy sauce
- 1 – 2 tsp fish sauce, to taste
- a pinch of sugar
- 100 g cashew nuts
- 1 heaped tsp cornflour mixed with a little cold water
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- For the stock, place the ginger, garlic and prawn shells and heads into a wok or saucepan. Cover with water and bring to the boil. Once boiling reduce the heat and gently simmer for up to 1 hour (although 10–15 minutes is fine). Drain the liquid through a sieve lined with muslin before using, discarding the spices, shells and heads.
- Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat. Add the ginger, garlic and spring onions (both green and white parts) and cook for a minute or until the garlic has softened and the ginger is aromatic. Add the prawns and cook for a further minute, then add the celery and ¾ of the chilli.
- Once the prawns start to turn pink, add 4 tablespoons of stock (the rest of the stock can be used in other recipes) and season with salt and pepper. Add the Shaoxing rice wine, soy sauce and fish sauce. Taste, and if the mixture is too salty, add a pinch of sugar. Add the cashews and dot in ½–1 teaspoon of the cornflour mix to slightly thicken the dish.
- Serve the prawns sprinkled with the remaining chopped chilli and a drizzle of sesame oil. If you like, you can use a large savoy cabbage leaf as a bowl.

NOTE: Lentils, like all dried beans, vary in their cooking time depending on several factors, including age. Yours may take longer to become tender, but they shouldn't take much more than an hour. Hard water can also affect the cooking time—if your water is hard, use bottled water.
YIELD: Serves 4 to 6
TIME: Cooking time: 1 to 1 1/2 hours (45 minutes active)
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 4 or 5 large onions, halved and thinly sliced (use the slicing blade on your food processor, or a mandoline if you have one)
- Salt and pepper
- 1 1/2 cups brown or green lentils, sorted and rinsed
- 1 1/4 cups long-grain white rice
- Plain yogurt or sour cream, optional, for serving
1. Heat the olive oil in a very large nonstick skillet over low heat (if you only have smaller skillets, divide the oil and onions between two). When the oil shimmers, add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Meanwhile, bring 4 1/2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan or small stockpot and add the lentils. Simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes, then add the rice and half the cooked onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer, covered, over very low heat until the lentils and rice are tender, about 20 minutes more. You may need to add more water toward the end; check after 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
3. While the rice and lentils are cooking, cook the onions remaining in the skillet over low heat, stirring often, until dark brown and nearly crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
4. Serve hot or at room temperature, with browned onions sprinkled on top. Add a dollop of the yogurt or sour cream if desired.
MAKE BABY FOOD: Puree the entire thing with an additional splash of water. For finger food, skip the browned onion topping, which may be challenging to young eaters.

As the yardstick sank in a crack at David Gammill's powder-dry wheat field, the farmer's heart plummeted as well.
The wooden measuring stick went 20 inches into the southern Oklahoma earth.
As the yardstick sank in a crack at David Gammill's powder-dry wheat field, the farmer's heart plummeted as well.
The wooden measuring stick went 20 inches into the southern Oklahoma earth.
Behind Gammill, his son, Josh, was at the helm of a John Deere 9600 combine.
In a good year, that 30-foot header on the machine would be gathering 40 bushels per acre, David Gammill said. This time, they hope it'll make 15 bushels.
Wheat harvest has started in Oklahoma. And as usual, the outcomes likely will vary not only throughout the state, but possibly within counties.
The Gammills are an example of the angst and determination that mark each Oklahoma wheat harvest.
"We thought that first field we cut would only make 5 bushels and we got 15. This should be about the same," David Gammill, 59, said of the field near Faxon. "Right now, with all the crop has been through, we feel fortunate to get that much."
Mark Hodges, executive director of Plains Grains Inc./Oklahoma Genetics Inc., which tests wheat for quality, recently traveled to southern Oklahoma visiting some producers who are in harvest, including Gammill. Seeing the cracks, he went to his pickup for some baling wire to poke into the ground to get an idea of the depth. But he happened to find the yardstick in the truck's cab.
Even though Gammill's heart dropped when the yardstick sank past a foot and started approaching 2 feet, this wasn't breaking news. He's watched the cracks multiply and widen for months.
He knows this crop has endured drought and at least five freezes just to get to this point.
What next?
Gammill had the wheat crop of his dreams in 2008, cutting 50 bushels per acre. The next year, a late freeze wiped him out. In 2010, the 28 bushels an acre was close to his average. In 2011, combines harvested 9-bushel-an-acre wheat in his fields. Last year, some of his neighbors' crops got hailed out while Gammill came away with 35 bushels an acre.
Ups and down. The challenges are usually more bountiful than the crops.
"That's why you're truly paranoid about being ready and in the field as soon as it will harvest," he said.
Time to harvest
Minutes earlier Josh Gammill, 31, had pulled the combine alongside a truck to dump the wheat. He got out, and his father handed him lunch in a small ice chest. He climbed back into the cab of the combine. There are few to no breaks when it's possible to harvest.
"When you get into the field you have to stay with it," Josh Gammill said.
Thinking back to the months before wheat harvest, David Gammill couldn't remember a real good rain since the 2 inches in October. And once the wheat was ready, they needed to get it harvested before rains came. As it turned out, they received about 2.5 inches of rain this past week, in his particular area, just days after starting harvest.

PIC: Ivana Trump, 60, Strips Down to Underwear, High Heels
Ivana Trump is no shrinking violet.
The 60 year-old mother of three and ex-wife to Donald Trump doffed most of her clothes Monday on an episode of British reality show Celebrity Big Brother.
Check out which other stars are proud of their bodies
Stripping down to her underwear -- but keeping her high heels on -- the blond socialite posed for sketch artists during a "life drawing" segment on the series.
Did these stars have plastic surgery?
In earlier days, Trump was a model, and, for this Big Brother challenge, she comfortably stretched out on a red velvet chaise lounge and stood alongside a Roman column.
Older women, younger men: see the slideshow
Trump wasn't the only housemate to show off her undressed state: her modeling partner was fellow contestant Nicola Tappenden, a 27 year-old topless model.
See a shot from Ivana's daughter Ivanka's wedding to Jared Kushner!
Known most famously as wife to Donald Trump and mother to Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, Ivana divorced her fourth husband Rossano Rubicondi in 2009.

Estonian nationals Timur Gerassimenko, Dmitri Jegorov and Konstantin Poltev – all of them accused of being involved in the DNSChanger cybercriminal operation – will be extradited to the United States.
According to the Associated Press, Estonia's Justice Minister approved the extradition of the suspects.
In the US, the three are charged with running a massive operation in which 4 million computers from all over the world have been infected with the DNSChanger malware. They're said to have made over $14 million (€10.5 million).
Gerassimenko, Jegorov and Poltev are among the six Estonians charged in the US. Another suspect, Anton Ivanov, was already extradited. 32-year-old Valeri Aleksejev pleaded guilty to the charges brought against him earlier this year.
Authorities dismantled the operation back in November 2011. However, it took several months to clean up most of the infected computers.

Missy Hinson said some of the pastures at Larkspur Ranch were under 4 feet of water on Monday.
Hinson, the equine manager at the ranch, said she and husband, ranch owner Joe Hinson, had to open pasture gates late Sunday afternoon so horses could reach higher ground. Older horses were put up in stalls to shelter them from the wet, heavy snow and wind.
GREAT FALLS There is no question that coach Smith will emerge victorious in the Class A boys Upper State championship basketball game Saturday in Greenville.
But which one?
Having head coaches named "Smith" is not the only similarity that Great Falls and Landrum, who will battle Saturday in Greenville's Bi-Lo Center for a shot at going to state, share.
Both teams come into the contest with records of 25-1.
Lancaster County Parks and Recreation will have seven all-star teams participating in Central District playoff this weekend.
The 10-and under boys and girls travel to Fort Mill to play on Saturday. Lancaster I boys play at 9 a.m. against Ruth C. Simons and Lancaster II boys play at 10:30 a.m. against the City of Columbia.
The first-round games will be played at Fort Mill High School.
Second-round games are at 1:30 p.m. at Fort Mill High.
The championship is set for 4:30 p.m. at Nations Ford High School. The field consists of nine teams.
Indian Land High School's record-setting wrestling season garnered more sterling standards over the weekend at the Class A-AA Lower State tournament at Aynor High School.

"You sure are fascinated with boogers," he gruffly said. "Seems to me that you like talking about them a right smart bit."
Well, yeah, I silently thought.
Lancaster High School first-year baseball coach Brett Blackmon said the Bruins' prep baseball jamboree – Gameday at Doomsday – was a hit Saturday at the LHS field.
The jamboree included three mini-game – host Lancaster vs. Class AAAA foe Richland Northeast, Great Falls vs. Indian Land and Lewisville vs. Fairfield Central of Winnsboro.
RNE edged the Bruins 4-1 and Great Falls downed Indian Land 5-1.
"We had a wonderful event," Blackmon said of the jamboree which also featured a host of baseball contests between the mini-games.

Grand Haven varsity boys basketball coach Steve Hewitt said Tuesday's O-K Red Conference battle at East Kentwood was especially frustrating to watch.
Grand Haven (7-8 overall, 2-4 O-K Red) had plenty of solid looks down low, but the Bucs failed to convert throughout the evening in their 57-41 setback.
"We had 17 shots in the paint and granted, some were contested. They're very athletic," Hewitt said. "But a lot of them weren't contested and we should have converted.
"We did some good things to get good looks, but you need to finish."
Grand Haven finished just 15-of-47 from the floor (32 percent).
The Bucs trailed by a 24-17 score at the half and could never put much of a dent in the deficit throughout the second half.
"They're not very big, so you can get some good looks in the paint and off the boards," Hewitt said. "We had 10 offensive rebounds to their six, but you have to convert those second chances. It was frustrating to watch."
Sean Steffel led the Bucs with 13 points, while Mac Carter and Ty VanWieren added eight points apiece. Hewitt was also pleased with the effort of Connor Grimes, who led the team with eight rebounds.
Ben Hester paced the Falcons with a game-high 14 points, but no other Falcon reached double figures.
"(Hester) was a killer," Hewitt said. "But they have a lot of guys who can knock down shots. It's hard to help (defensively) against a team like that. You can't leave anyone alone. Plus, they press the whole game, which kind of wears you down."
Grand Haven committed 15 turnovers, which Hewitt said was too many for his squad in their upset bid.
The Bucs will have another tough test on Friday, as they travel to O-K Red Conference co-leader Rockford.

MADRID — The park at the community center was cluttered with cars, canoes and camping gear this weekend for the 23rd annual Madrid Canoe Regatta.
People from across the country and Canada came prepared for a weekend on the Grasse River; some even set up tents to camp out Saturday night.
Organizers Bernard L. Moulton and his wife, Amy J., said about 100 people usually attend the weekend races and most are from out of town and even out of state.
"They like this race course because it starts and finishes in the same place, so they don't have to move their cars," Mr. Moulton said. "Also, since it's right here in the park, they can camp out and make a weekend out of it."
About 25 different classes of both a 9-mile and a 3-mile race were held Saturday and several more classes for 16-mile, 13-mile and 6-mile races were held Sunday.
Mr. Moulton said several sponsors make it possible to have prize money on each race day up to $250.
Anne McMahon and Judy Lyon are from Montreal and joined in the 6-mile recreation race Sunday. They are members of the Pointe-Claire Canoe Club.
"It's just lovely being on the water," Ms. McMahon said.
Ms. Lyon said she participated in last year's races as well.
"It's like a holiday every time you go," she said.
Mrs. Moulton said one reason canoeing events in the north country attract so many from out of state is that "there are so many waterways that people can easily put a canoe or kayak in."
Mr. Moulton said the out-of-towners also help boost the local economy in Madrid.
Jeffrey G. Pedersen and his wife, Laurie S., owners of Southern Tier Canoe, had a tent set up in the park selling anything from energy drink systems to nutrition supplies to boat supplies to paddles to T-shirts.
Mrs. Pedersen said she and her husband, who are from Gilbertsville, travel to all of the canoeing weekends in the north country with their business.
"Jeff participates in the races," she said. "This is one of the big ones because so many Canadian paddlers come to it."

Tanya Peterson, technology guru at Ancestry.com, published this useful article on the Ancestry blog today. I have Family Tree Maker 2012 and the following post on charting has helped me:
"Over the years, we have received requests to include some charting features that were available in Family Tree Maker 2006/version 16. In Family Tree Maker 2012 we're brought back two of them: direct-line descendant charts and generation labels.
Direct-line Descendant Charts
In recent versions of Family Tree Maker, the descendant chart showed all of an individual's descendants. With only one or two generations, this chart can get quite large and difficult to understand. Now you have a simple alternative. You can create descendant chart that shows the direct-line relationship between two people you select.
Generation Labels
Another option available in 2012 is generation labels, which identify the relationship between the primary person in the chart and other family members (such as parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents). These labels appear above chart columns and help you identify relationships in a glance.
Text Boxes
A new feature in 2012 is the ability to personalize charts by adding your own free-form text boxes. Write a story about the individual, add a caption to a family photo, or include information that doesn't fit elsewhere on the chart.
As an Ancestry.com affiliate I've posted the entire article, but here's the link: Ancestry.com."

1 Comment on Family Tree Maker: New Chart Options in 2012
You are absolutely prolific in your blog posts – and all such fascinating topics. I must get here more often. Since I have a MAC I decided to work with Reunion, into which my brother (visiting from Seattle) and I entered in about nine generations of information last week. I'll do a post on that some day. I'll have to see if we can do this labeling generations trick for an individual on Reunion. We can add photos and all sorts of info on notes and of course, sources. As Kerry Scott's post several months ago noted on Clue Wagon — there are lots of good programs out there — just what you're comfortable with. Many are probably thrilled to have your update here.
