The Cohasset Board of Health is asking town meeting voters to ban the use of e-cigarettes in public places where traditional cigarettes are prohibited, including business offices and restaurants.
Voters will define the legal use of e-cigarettes when town meeting reconvenes at 7 p.m. Monday in the middle/high school gymnasium.
The town's board of health is asking voters to consider banning the use of e-cigarettes in public places where traditional cigarettes are prohibited, including business offices and restaurants. E-cigarettes are electronic devices that deliver nicotine via water vapor instead of tobacco, designed to replicate the act of smoking without inhaling harmful chemicals.
Health officials are also asking residents to ban the sale of e-cigarettes to minors and to prohibit stores with pharmacies from selling tobacco products.
Tara Tradd, Cohasset's health inspector, said there haven't been enough studies looking at how e-cigarettes affect public health. Some critics say e-cigarettes can lead minors, who are legally allowed to buy them, to get hooked on nicotine and to eventually try smoking tobacco.
Supporters say the devices help people to stop smoking traditional cigarettes.
Cohasset's selectmen and advisory board are unanimously opposed to the health department's proposals.
In other business, town meeting voters will decide on a new operating contract for the water plant. The contract with the existing plant operator, American Water, expires on June 30.
On the first day of town meeting, May 12, voters rejected a proposal to merge the sewer and water commissions, and denied the imposition of additional meals and hotel taxes.

Annoyances That Have Turned Into Huge ProblemsAdam1234567893 Nov 10, 2013 1:30 AM
Okay these were annoyances at one point but they have quickly turned into problems the spawn system was questionable at launch but now it seems ten times worse with the revenge spawns and spawning in front of people and now garbage players have learned it and found out how to exploit it making it almost unplayable. The lag and various network issues have been occasional and made into all night tonight I don't know what's going on but it seemed like I was hours behind everyone and it seemed like people were behind me it could be matchmaking is no longer region locked or it could be lag with the servers themselves or it could be anything I don't know all I know is that the lag issues went from really good to Black Ops 2 lag which was the worse Call of Duty when it came to lag. What happened to listen servers and region lock and the dedicated servers you were talking about Infinity Ward?
The gun balance went from okay to just down right horrible there are only 4 overpowered guns in this game but they are very noticeable because how strong they are all night long the Honey Badger and the Remington and the K7 and the Ak-12 have dominated the game with no hope of out gunning them at all I have used every gun I could and they seem to out gun me. The K7 has a fire rate that's too fast for a power house low recoil SMG. The Remington has either a fire rate that's too fast or it has to much damage I can't tell just saying if it's going to be that accurate it needs to lack something as for the Honey Badger it's the damage and range that are too much. The AK-12 is just too accurate to be a power house it needs recoil to be realistic.
Now the problem that disappointed me and that is your lack of security against hackers and cheaters the thousands of players on the top of your leaderboards speaks for itself so I really don't need proof none of those players were banned yet or console banned they haven't been even removed yet which scares me into thinking that this game will be another CoD4 or WaW or MW2 before the DLC Season even starts. I don't get how you could allow this playability and security should be your top priorities.You could even pull a Rockstar and ask Sony and Microsoft and Steam and Nintendo to console ban the hackers or ban their accounts and yet nothing has been done about them no resets no bans no nothing what gives? There should be zero tolerance against cheaters and hackers it should be first offense ban. Get all the console brands to ban and console ban these players then go through your game and ban any of the players that they have missed and then make ALL hacks incompatible with your game make it where no cheating or hacking works in your game then fix your leaderboards.
If these issues aren't resolved soon I will assume the worse and not buy the DLC I mean why should I consider buying DLC for a game that has developers who won't put the same effort. I do not wanna go through another rip off like Black Ops 2 so please fix your game seriously when it comes to playability and security the customers are always right you should be considering every suggestion that has a chance at improving gameplay. I wanna like this game but the lag issues and spawn issues and bad security are making me not wanna get the DLC I am excited about the game but after tonight I really don't wanna feel disappointed like I was about Black Ops 2 so please fix this game if you want to restore faith in your fans.

Forgive Paul Stastny if he takes Wednesday's Olympic showdown between Team USA and the Czech Republic [noon, NBCSN] a little more personally than the rest of his American teammates.
Born in Quebec to Slovak parents who defected from what was then a Communist Czechoslovakia, Stastny considers himself as American, if not more so, than anyone born in these United States.
And for that he thanks his father, former NHL great Peter Stastny, and mother, Darina, for having the courage to defect from their native country for a better life.
"He was 24 when he did it and he had to grow up really fast," said Paul Stastny, a 28-year-old center born five years after his parents defected in 1980.
"It obviously takes a lot of guts and a lot of sacrificing. Maybe you never see your family again. For the betterment of his children, for us, he made that decision. It showed a lot of guts and showed what kind of role model and leader my Dad was."
Peter Stastny was Czechoslovakia's player of the year in 1980 when he and his brother, Anton, defected from their native country to pursue careers in the NHL. They fled to Austria, where, with the help of then-Quebec Nordiques owner Marcel Aubut, they were brought to Canada and signed to NHL contracts.
One year later, the Stastnys used $30,000 to secure the release of their brother, Marian, who joined them with the Nordiques.
RELATED: [Ovechkin held silent in Russia's win over Norway]
Peter Stastny went on to enjoy a 15-year Hall of Fame career with the Nordiques, Devils and Blues, but it was those early sacrifices that his son appreciates most.
"I didn't ask questions," Paul Stastny said. "There's so much history to it that I didn't know about.
"When you defect your country in 1980 with your wife, who's pregnant at the time, and you can't tell anyone in the world … The only people who knew were his brother and sister-in-law because at that time they might have been, maybe killed."
It was not until nine years later, following the fall of the Berlin Wall, that Peter Stastny saw his parents again.
"That was the first time they were allowed to come back and visit us," Paul Stastny said.
"My dad always says the best thing we have here is we do what we want. No one tells us what to do. The government doesn't rule us. It's not until you actually talk to a parent or a grandfather who had to deal with that stuff and defect from a country under Communist rule that you appreciate it.
"People don't realize how harsh it was, but if you ask him today he'll tell you it was the best decision he ever made to defect overseas and in turn be able to raise us in a country where we had the freedom to have choices to do what we want and not be under Communist rule."
Paul Stastny spent the first five years of his life in Quebec and moved to New Jersey when his father was traded to the Devils in 1990. The family moved to St. Louis when Paul was 8 and he played youth hockey there before attending high school in Iowa.
Stastny won an NCAA championship at the University of Denver and was taken in the second round of the 2005 NHL draft by the Colorado Avalanche. He and his brother, Yan, have dual citizenship in the U.S. and Canada.
"It was an easy decision," Stastny said of playing for Team USA. "I'm raised American and everything I remember in my life, from playing hockey to starting school and the way I was raised, everything was American, a hundred percent. Me, my brother, my sister, we're all American."
In eight seasons with the Avs, Stastny has 152 goals and 287 assists for 439 points in 519 games. But what he values most in his career is the silver medal he won in the 2010 Vancouver Games and the opportunity to reach even higher in these Sochi Games.
"When you're young you think about playing in the NHL," he said, "but as you get older and wiser you realize there's so much more to life than hockey. We're so lucky and blessed to do what we want and have the choices we have.
"To be able to represent the red, white and blue and play in an international event that represents 300-plus million people really is an honor."
Stastny also won a bronze medal with USA in the 2013 World Hockey Championships. With a win over the Czechs on Wednesday the Americans would earn a spot in the semifinals, where they are likely to face Canada for a chance to play for the gold on Sunday.
"There's only one piece left to add to the collection," Stastny said. "As I get older I realize not a lot of people get a chance to play in the Olympics, let alone win a medal at the Olympics.
"Our expectations are a lot higher than they were last time. We have one goal and that's to play on that last day before the ceremonies and to win that game. We don't expect anything less."

Sundance Exclusive: Interview with Emad Burnat and Guy Davidi of 5 Broken Cameras
Co-directed by Palestinian filmmaker Emad Burnat and Israeli activist Guy Davidi, the images in 5 Broken Cameras are beautiful, haunting, and bring about dozens of other questions about the history of the occupation and the tactics around love and resistance. Thanks to their fabulous publicist Eseel, I got to interview Guy and Emad and ask them about their lives, their work, and what they think the future holds for Israel and Palestine.
Emad: It has been a sometimes good experience, a sometimes bad experience. In 2005, when I started to resist with my village, I decided to film to protect myself and to protect the other protests and to show the footage for other people, and to use the footage sometime to prove what is going on. Over the last seven years, [I documented] how what happened in the village affected me, my family, my children, and my friends, week by week. After many years of documenting, I thought that there was a huge story that I have to tell to other people. We decided to construct a documentary from my personal life and personal story. [5 Broken Cameras] is not a political film or just a film about conflict – it's a film about life, and how the people can survive and how people live, and how kids grow up. For my kids, everyone loves those boys, and I wanted to make for them a good life, I wanted to take care of them, and protect them. I can't tie them in the house every day, keep them 24 hours in one room. This is our life, like this. I tried to build for them a good life and a good situation. And I wanted to put my life and my experience in the village in one documentary.
Maybe [other people, in other parts of the world] see footage on the news, but they don't know the reality and they don't know the life of these people. I hope that this film does make some change, so we can change the life for everyone – in Palestine and Israel.
Guy: I came to Bil'in in early 2005, one of the first Israeli peace activists that came. I was already interested in what was happening in this movement, I wanted be a part of it. My first main motivation is a bit selfish, it wasn't just to help the movement – it was also for me. Israel is like a ghetto – it is closed, like a bubble, not sensitive to the others. You're not allowed to go here, not allowed to go there – so I wanted to break that. I wanted to live in a free way. If we live in a free way, we have to confront the shadows – and what happens in the shadow is in Palestine and the settlements.
So I met Emad. He was a very known character from the start, because he was the only cameraman who was basically staying in the village all the time. He became what we say in the film, "the village's eye." So we met many times while filming. We didn't work together until 2009, when Emad approached me to make the film, so we decided to make it as a personal narrative. When I thought in the beginning to make a film on Bil'in, there were many that were similar. We had to have a new and refreshing take and I was happy to find out in the material that we could tell the story in this very intimate and personal way. You could see in the world both the context of the movement and the occupation, and you can have a really intimate family moments.
Guy: First we have to know that there are many kinds of settlements and many kinds of settlers. It is the Israeli machine that is making it move. These are not necessarily ideological settlers going because they want to conquer the land or wipe out Palestinians. They just want to improve their lives. The government is subsidizing the apartments in the West Bank, and using [the people's] financial circumstances to move an agenda forward. Some settlers don't know what is going on – the way Israel is designed, you can travel through parts and not really know where you are. Some settlers do know what's going on and don't care. And then you have a very small minority, a violent minority, the fundamentalist Jews that are creating terror in Palestine. They are small, but noisy and strong. If Israel would like to change its ways, they will have to find a way to root out the fundamentalists, to pull the weeds. Continue reading
Quoted: Houria Bouteldja on "White Women and the Privilege of Solidarity"
In 2007, women from the Movement of the Indigenous of the Republic took part in the annual 8th of March demonstration in support of women's struggles. At that time, the American campaign against Iran had begun. We decided to march behind a banner that's message was "No feminism without anti-imperialism". We were all wearing Palestinian kaffiyehs and handing out flyers in support of three resistant Iraqi women taken prisoner by the Americans. When we arrived, the organizers of the official procession started chanting slogans in support of Iranian women. We found these slogans extremely shocking given the ideological offensive against Iran at that time. Why the Iranians, the Algerians and not the Palestinians and the Iraqis? Why such selective choices? To thwart these slogans, we decided to express our solidarity not with Third World women but rather with Western women. And so we chanted:
Solidarity with Swedish women!
Solidarity with Italian women!
Solidarity with German women!
Solidarity with English women!
Solidarity with French women!
Solidarity with American women!
Which meant: why should you, white women, have the privilege of solidarity? You are also battered, raped, you are also subject to men's violence, you are also underpaid, despised, your bodies are also instrumentalized…
I can tell you that they looked at us as if we were from outer space. What we were saying seemed surreal, inconceivable. It was like the 4th dimension. It wasn't so much the fact that we reminded them of their situation as Western women that shocked them. It was more the fact that African and Arabo-Muslim women had dared symbolically subvert a relationship of domination and had established themselves as patrons. In other words, with this skillful rhetorical turn, we showed them that they de facto had a superior status to our own. We found their looks of disbelief quite entertaining.
Another example: After a solidarity trip to Palestine, a friend was telling me how the French women had asked the Palestinian women if they used birth control. According to my friend, the Palestinian women couldn't understand such a question given how important the demographic issue is in Palestine. They were coming from a completely different perspective. For many Palestinian women, having children is an act of resistance against the ethnic cleansing policies of the Israeli state.
There you have two examples that illustrate our situation as racialized women, that help understand what is at stake and envisage a way to fight colonialist and Eurocentric feminism.
— Houria Bouteldja, spokeswoman for the PIR (La Indigènes de la République) speaking at the 4th International Congress of Islamic Feminism, in Madrid, 22 October 2010

An Everyday Epic Battle: Pride Toronto, Blackness Yes, Israeli Apartheid and Sticking Together
By Deputy Editor Thea Lim
I am from Toronto, though I now live in Houston. I get most of my Toronto community news through Facebook, and I have been watching with disgust and amazement for the past two months as my Facebook feed has filled up with reports about Pride Toronto, Blackness Yes! – a community organization that celebrates black queer and trans history – and Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA).
Long story short: Pride Toronto, which is an internationally famous week-long celebration of queer and trans pride, has made conscious or unconscious attempts to curtail the wholehearted participation of queer and trans folks of colour and their allies in Pride. They have attempted to relocate and shrink black-identified spaces, and they have banned QuAIA from participation in Pride 2010. This year queer & trans people of colour (QTPOC) and their allies may participate in Pride, but only as long as they check their histories and politics at the door. Short story long? Hang on to your hats, this is an epic tale.
Blackness Yes!
The first news I heard of this mess was in April, when the Blackness Yes! Blockorama party was asked to move by the Pride Toronto organizing committee for the third time in 4 years.
Blackness Yes! organizer Syrus M. Ware describes Blockorama and Blackness Yes!:
Since 1998 Blockorama has been a party at Pride where black queer and trans folks, their allies, supporters and people who love them came together to say no to homophobia in black communities and no to racism in LGBTQ communities. To say Blackness Yes at Pride – loud and proud…We have built Blockorama out of love, through sweat and toiling. For 12 years, we have claimed space, resisted erasure, found community, shared memories, built bridges, embraced sexuality, and found home. Blockorama is not just a party or a stage at Pride. It is a meeting place for black queer and trans people across North America- Blockorama is the largest space of its kind at any Pride festival on the continent.
Yet Pride Toronto has multiple times tried to move Blockorama further away from the main events, or relocated the party to smaller spaces that will not fit the huge crowds Blockorama draws. Blockorama is a hugely important part of Pride, not only a black space where queer black folks go to party, but also a space that has always been immensely welcoming to non-black folks of colour. Pride Toronto's moves – whether or not they are racist – indicate a lack of sensitivity, care or even basic awareness of the size and meaning of Blockorama.
University of Toronto professor Rinaldo Walcott wrote this letter to the Pride Toronto organizing committee, upon news that Blockorama was to be moved again:
…at the same time that Pride Toronto has moved Blocko three times, Pride Toronto has also taken on the mantle of global human rights as its signature issue.
It is in fact the discrepancy between Pride Toronto's treatment of local black communities participation in pride events and its attempt to position itself as a global player in the LGBTQ global rights movement that I find particularly offensive, disrespectful and unmindful of the very communities residing here that Pride Toronto would seek to champion overseas.
How can this be? How could it be that Pride Toronto did not see this ethical dilemma before it? Is it because Blocko is the last non-commercial space at pride? Is it because like much else in this country Pride Toronto too believes that black people as a constituency can be ignored? These are genuine questions, not accusations.
…We will not as black people here and globally stand to be exploited by white folks who now want it to appear that all is well at home, but not elsewhere.
On April 13 Blackness Yes! held a community meeting to protest these moves. Deviant Productions, an alternative youth media collective, made a video of the meeting:
You can read a transcript of the video here.
In many ways this community mobilisation was successful. 3 days after the meeting, Pride Toronto agreed not to relocate Blockorama to a smaller venue for this year, and agreed to work with Blockorama, starting in July, to put a stop to the yearly migrations and find a permanent home for Blocko at Pride.
However negotiations are stalled around the matter of a dancefloor. This is a queer dance party, after all.
Open Thread: The Gaza Freedom Flotilla
by Latoya Peterson
On Memorial Day, twitter was abuzz with news about the Gaza Freedom Flotilla and what happened. Mainstream media, not so much.
Here's a quick run down for those not familiar with the chain of events.
The Gaza Freedom Flotilla is a part of the Free Gaza movement. The boat trips were designed as an act of international civil disobedience to challenge the State of Israel's blockade which prevents ship travel into Gaza. According to the Free Gaza's "A Simple Idea" section:
The Free Gaza Movement began in the Fall of 2006 with a simple idea: Instead of waiting for the world to act, we would sail to Gaza ourselves, and directly challenge the Israeli siege ourselves. For almost two years, Free Gaza activists in Australia, Britain, Cyprus, Germany, Greece, Lebanon, Palestine, and the United States worked to raise money, locate ships and crew, and train and organize for our first attempt to break through Israel's blockade. By August 2008 we were ready, and we sailed to Gaza in two, small, wooden fishing boats: the FREE GAZA and the LIBERTY.
Since then we have continued to sail to besieged Gaza, bringing in human rights workers and lawyers, journalists, academics, and parliamentarians, as well as several tons of desperately needed humanitarian aid. We are students and teachers, human rights observers and aid workers, lawyers, medics, activists – parents and grandparents. We are of all ages and backgrounds, from countries all across the world. We will go to Gaza again and again and again. We have not and will not ask for Israel's permission. It is our intent to overcome this brutal siege through civil resistance and direct action.
We will continue to challenge Israel's illegal closure of the Gaza Strip and collective punishment of its civilian population until the Israeli siege is forever broken and the people of Gaza have free access to the rest of the world.
The Guardian has posted a Q & A about the flotilla, which reads:
What was the aim of the Gaza Freedom flotilla?
The Free Gaza movement says it was intended to deliver aid to Gaza to get around the Israeli blockade and "to raise international awareness about the prison-like closure of the Gaza Strip and pressure the international community to review its sanctions policy and end its support for continued Israeli occupation". The movement is an international coalition of pro-Palestinian human rights organisations and activists. It has been endorsed by Desmond Tutu and Noam Chomsky and counts on the support of a number of Jewish groups that campaign for the rights of Palestinians.
Israel's deputy foreign minister, Danny Ayalon, said: "The armada of hate and violence in support of the Hamas terror organisation was a premeditated and outrageous provocation. The organisers are well-known for their ties to global Jihad, al-Qaida and Hamas. They have a history of arms smuggling and deadly terror. On board the ship we found weapons that were prepared in advance and used against our forces. The organisers' intent was violent, their method was violent, and unfortunately, the results were violent."
Israel has singled out the Turkish-based Insani Yardim Vakfi or IHH ("humanitarian relief fund") as a radical Islamic organisation.
The boat was filled with both aid and an international group of activists, many of whom had protested directly on the ground in Gaza or had joined the 2008 flotillas.
On Sunday night, Israel made the decision to storm the vessel, with lethal results. Continue reading
Coming Attraction: After The Cup in L.A. Friday
By Special Correspondent Arturo R. García
I just wanted to tip our readers in the L.A. area off about the West Coast premiere of After The Cup: Sons of Sakhnin United, which has been garnering praise around the documentary circuit for its' story about Bnei Sakhnin F.C., a football team based out of the city of Sakhnin, an Israeli town that is home to more than 25,000 Arab Israelis. The team's roster is comprised of both Arabs and Jews, and though some elements in the film hew close to more traditional "underdog" fare – because Sakhnin is a small club, for example, its' facilities aren't as modern as its' competitors – it does change up the formula in one significant way: After The Cup deals with Sakhnin in the season after it won the Israeli Premier League's championship, the State Cup. Slight spoiler here: the team soon finds it really is harder to stay on top than to get there.
Unfortunately, I can't make the premiere – I live too far away – but if any of our readers can catch it this weekend, I'd be interested in getting your take on the film in this thread.
An Interview with Cherien Dabis, the Woman Behind Amreeka
by Special Correspondent Fatemeh Fakhraie
Fatemeh Fakhraie spoke with Cherien Dabis, the director behind the film Amreeka, a story about a Palestinian woman and her son as they adjust to their new life in America.
It seems that your experiences as an Arab-American have really shaped the way you tell stories. I remember reading in another interview of yours that the story behind Amreeka is a personal one. Could you talk a little bit about that?
Cherien Dabis: The story is very much inspired by my family and the love, strength and pride that held us together during a difficult time. I grew up in a small town in Ohio where there was no anonymity. So everyone knew that my parents were Arab and that we spoke Arabic at home and went away to Jordan and the West Bank every summer. That was all it took for people to treat us differently. Mostly they were just ignorant, asking questions like: Are there cars in Jordan? It wasn't until the first Gulf War when ignorance turned into racism. My father – who's a physician – lost a lot of his patients because people didn't want to support an Arab doctor. We got death threats on a daily basis. And the secret service even visited my high school because of a tip that they got that my 17 year-old sister allegedly threatened to kill the president. I was 14 years old at the time and actually lost a lot of my friends, that's how ostracized we were. When a so-called friend came up to me at my locker one day and said, "my brother could go to war and die because of you," I knew it had gone too far. I knew that I needed to try to do something about it. But not only is the film loosely based on what happened to my family in 1991, my family members also inspire the characters in the film. In fact, the main character Muna is inspired by my Aunt who immigrated to the U.S. with her teenaged son in 1997. What struck me about my aunt was her attitude. She was so full of hope and optimism, despite the daily challenges that she faced. She was so trusting of people that she unknowingly disarmed them. Even people who didn't want to like her or would have otherwise been suspicious of her couldn't help but ultimately fall in love with her. It's this quality that inspired Muna. When I sat down to write the script, I kept thinking: If more people were like my aunt, the world would be a better place. Continue reading
Losing My Religion
by Racialicious Special Correspondent Fatemeh Fakhraie. A longer version of this article appears on altmuslimah.
I finally got around to watching AmericanEast this weekend. Full disclosure: I had originally read Tariq Nelson's review, which was a pretty good rundown.
AmericanEast is an attempt at mainstreaming American Muslims and attempts to portray the struggles Muslims face in the United States. In my opinion, they overdid it and never established a coherent plot. And on top of that, I found that the characters had no depth and some were cartoonish caricatures.
The movie centers on Mustafa, an Egyptian immigrant who owns a café in a heavily Middle Eastern part of Los Angeles. His life, and the lives of several close to him, is one problem or tragedy after another: at one point during the movie, I asked myself whether anything good was ever going to happen to anyone.
Mustafa has a sister, Salwah. Tariq outlines her character:
Salwah Marzouke, Mustafa's sister, was a nurse that styled hair in the back of her brother's restaurant and was arranged to marry her cousin Sabir. However she did not like him and they did not get married. But the cousin was never informed (at least not on camera) and the story was dropped. Salwah was also interested in a doctor at her hospital who was not Muslim.
The movie stresses over and over that marrying Salwah off is Mustafa's duty (or so he believes). Sabir comes from Egypt to marry Salwah and take him back home with her, although she is less than excited (that's an understatement) about this arrangement. Even though she often fights with her brother, she gives off major submissive, dutiful vibes that plague many female Muslim characters in the form of wide-eyed, helpless stares contrasted with humbly averted eyes and lowered chin.

FISA Filibuster Fails

Get alerts when there is a new article that might interest you.
Earlier in the week, Russ Feingold said he wouldn't filibuster the FISA bill--but that was apparently before he got his marching orders from the netroots. His attempt to kill the bill last night failed on a vote to begin debate, 80 to 15. The Huffington/Kos crowd might not approve of the majority of Democrats who acted reasonably, but the rest of America thanks them.

RE: #120363856, Heziah Davis
You are most likely right. We could not read the stone and were going by an old WPA list. They probably couldn't read it, either.
I will change the memorial page to agree with what you have.
Thank you.

Edit Request ~
Hello Julie. You sent me an edit request concerning
Mary Drake.
You may want to delete that request, asking me to link Edward Flewellen as Mary's father? (Edward was actually Mary Drake's nephew who never wed, a son of Mary's brother James.) Mary's dad was Archelaus Flewellen 1777-1823 and I've never learned where the father was buried, and I never created a memorial for him because "unknown burials" are contrary to findagrave guidelines.

Hello. I've been following a family trail & noticed you posted flowers on her memorial. Are you family by chance?
I'm trying to confirm that she's my grandfather's sister. Do you happen to know if she had brothers Eugene & Lytle? Lytle would've still been alive in the 80's when I last saw him.

Thanks for catching that. I looked back at the 1st Presbyterian Cemetery book I have and they have it spelled with an "e" both for the marker and the obituary. Someone else created this memorial and I had not caught the misspelling. And always glad to meet a cousin. Thanks for the help.

Hi, Julie.
I am going to put the name of Hugh in the Bio section for Hu Webb. I'm almost 100 percent positive that his name is spelled Hu on his tombstone. I was not sure if it was an abreviation or if it was how he spelled his name. I thought it was an odd spelling.

text: Hey all, new here and back to riding after a looong hiatus. Used to ride everywhere when I lived and wrenched in Huntington, WV. Moved to AL and found the country roads weren't the safest place to ride. After 17 years and 5 moves from Florida to Maine, I'm finally in the position to to start cranking again. I like some of the new stuff but my heart really lies in the C&V arena. Tooling around on my '96 Giant ATX 780 right now but I need to get my '93 Bianchi Giro D'Italia back up and running. Glad to find a place to talk to like-minded folks.

Comments by Eludium Q36
Great pilot episode! I haven't been as excited for a sitcom since "Happy Endings" which Zach coincidentally starred in. I especially like the characters played by him and Becki but Meera looks to be a breakout. They all - minus Becki - did a hilarious scene near the end by ad-lip-syncing a couple's wedding vows. Sharply funny stuff. Great writing and directing, at least in the pilot. Just added to my DVR as "Record Series".
Nnnnoooooooo... "Allegiance" was a faster pace, more to the point, modern-day version of FX's "The Americans", and without the gratuitous S&V. In fact, I prefer it to the highly acclaimed latter show. Why won't NBC give shows like this time to find an audience?! Hmm, maybe the better question is why a broadcast network takes this show in the first place. Why not leave it to AMC, FX, TNT, or Netflix/Amazon to cultivate them with less ratings pressure?
I want to like this show, I do. I'm in IT Security so this show resonates with me but it looks like they just threw the cast together without much thought. James VdB is tall and fit, but he's teamed with a pudgy Patricia Arquette who's just not right for this part. It's got to be awkward for them. And I can't believe they waste the premiere episode on a baby kidnapping/auction ring! Really?! Are they shooting for the young parent demographic with this show? I won't critique the other particulars because I'm more interested in each episode's technical premise, like the hijacking of a wireless baby monitor. So I'll come for the technical topic and will stay for not much else than that.
Is this comment stream for women only because that's all I see with Krystal patting everyone on the back. So here's the other side's opinion. The show is over-the-top in its crusade for women in power and that men in power are apparently the worst.Then there's the plausibility problem. Some shows pay respect to plausibility others don't and unfortunately this one doesn't, at all. There were many but the most glaring and objectionable was depicting her suspension. That she was able to slip the approaches of multiple officers - in skirt and heels no less - and coordinate the handoff of a Top Secret document, then got into the White House - which has multiple checkpoints that would snare suspended CIA officers (or should!) - and into the Oval Office was just unforgivable. If you're going to let your star character do that then it's apparent you're going to let her do anything and everything she wants without consequence and that makes this show no better than an animated series on the Cartoon Network. One and done pour moi, sorry gals.
His Fet character is pretty similar to his dark, mysterious Martin Keamy character on "LOST". Kind of surprised they didn't mention his prior series role on "LOST" at all. I guess none of that series' actors are playing that as a strength.
Like Allison, I see too many elements cobbled together from other shows. That's not bad in itself but it just seems to be pandering to so many demographics: there's the counter-estab-nerd, the autistic kid, the cute/vulnerable waitress, the very serious fed, the smart asian girl, the fat comic-relief guy, and the hipster with the hoody and pork pie hat - just like "Heroes" except with super smarts instead of super powers. And because we haven't all screamed loud enough, the computer hacker gets into any system as easy as if it were his own to begin with. If you're going to permit that lax of a plot mechanism then what's the point in watching because you've just signaled that Deus Ex Machina is the ace up your sleeve which is what that ridiculous plane-cable-car scene was. My prediction: early cancellation.
I like the premise of the show but they're just horrible at execution. The only way I can watch this show is leaning on the FF button. There's typically only two places in each episode I need to play at normal speed. So the net of this is for each week there's only about 5 minutes of this 1 hr show worth paying attention to, wouldn't count on its renewal.
Worst "Stars" cast yet, the producers had to resort to tier-3 actors, some of whom are still trying to make bank on their minor character from the 90s. There just had to be many discussions that started with "I swear if we don't get so-and-so then we are doing another season." Unfortunately, that person never prevailed and we have this pathetic set of "stars" we have to endure because your wives, like mine, make you watch it for the dancing, ugh.
Show's creator was interviewed and noted it's an actually award at Harvard.
Clearly, this and the prior episodes were leading to Louis' suicide but the writers feinted that and gave us Louis the Machiavellian. Also, given his medical history, the stress of those final moments could drop him down; otherwise, next season starts off with Jessica responding "Oh hell no!" In any case, please, please more legal drama and less Mike-and-Rachel playing house.

The funny thing is that in the comics the timeline initially progressed alot faster than it did in the show.
Ah, right, I had forgotten how quickly the timeline progressed in the early issues. Looking back at old issues, it seems that Rick woke in late summer in issue #1; by issue #5, winter has started. Looking back at #10, though, they were still in winter when Otis led the group to Hershel's Farm.

That said, I do find t odd that the comics are suggesting that only 18 months have passed. I wonder why they slowed down?
The sixteen months bit came from editor Sina Grace in the letters column for #90. I think the comics timeline started slowing down after the survivors reached the prison; that location alone anchored the group for six story arcs (approximately thirty-six issues). As best as I can recall*, there have been relatively few time jumps in between issues since that point.
(* Admittedly, my memory could be pretty off on that - for most of the series' life so far, I've been reading the comics in the big hardcover volumes. A pretty decent amount of time, of course, passes in between each of those volumes. It's only within the last few weeks that I've started reading single issues.)

There is a lot of buzz about HTML 5 and the support for HTML 5 provided by Internet Explorer, but what about adding HTML 5 content to pages on your SharePoint site? Sure we can do it, but you will need IE9 or another compatible HTML 5 browser.
Why would you want to do this? Remember, the Visio Services API allows us to add overlays to a Visio diagram. These overlays can be based on HTML. HTML 5 supports the new Canvas tag which will allow us to draw just about whatever we want including animations.
I have a floor plan diagram in Visio with various shapes that represent office locations, facilities, and equipment.
Some of these shapes represent network racks which are data linked to an asset data source that tell me which rack contains a particular piece of equipment. ( If you are not familiar with data link in Visio review this article, http://visio.microsoft.com/en-us/Get_Started/How_To/Pages/Linking-Data-to-Shapes.aspx).
I want to add search capability to my diagram so that I can easily find the rack that contains a specific piece of equipment. To do this I will add some HTML and JavaScript to the page that will provide me with a way to search the data linked into the diagram and then highlight the shape(s) that match my search criteria.
Something like this…
The last piece of functionality that I want is to point to the appropriate rack when the user selects a specific piece of equipment from the search results, like this…
This is where HTML 5 comes in as I will simply place a <canvas> tag in the diagram at the appropriate location and draw a nice arrow to help the use see where the equipment is located according to the data that has been linked to the shape.
The first step is to make sure you are using an HTML 5 compatible browser. You can install IE9 from here, http://www.beautyoftheweb.com/experience#/download. This is required for the HTML 5 capabilities, i.e. <canvas>.
Next, create a folder on your SharePoint site for the web part page and the rest of the solution code.
To make this easy I included a ZIP that contains all the JavaScript, HTML, and the sample diagram that you need to implement this ( see the download link at the bottom of this article ).
After you upload all the files from the ZIP that I provided, create a new web part page in this folder and add a Visio Web Access web part to it. If you are not familiar with this process you can review the first two sections of this article on MSDN, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff394649.aspx. I chose the Left Column – Body layout for my page so that I could place the Search pane on the left and leave the majority of the page for displaying the diagram. I typically create a folder in a document or asset library where the web part page is stored as well as the other files that my web part page will reference.
You should also follow the instructions from the MSDN article referenced above for adding a Content Editor web part to the page as we will use this as the mechanism to add our custom HTML and JavaScript to the page.
Visio Service has two rendering modes in SharePoint 2010, XAML and Raster. By default we choose XAML unless the browser does not have the Silverlight plugin installed. For HTML based overlays we need to force the rendering mode to Raster which is done in the Web Part properties pane.
Add the default.htm file to the Content Editor web part by assigning the URL property of the web part to the full URL of the default.htm file that you uploaded from my ZIP.
Don't forget to set the Content Editor web part to load the default.htm file that you added to your document library. Without this the HTML and JavaScript will not load with the page.
Now that all the files are in place you can test the search. If you are using my sample diagram that is included in the ZIP try searching for "spdev" as there are 4 servers that start with this name.
What you might find is that when you click on one of the results from the search you might see a message on that shape that says
This is because SharePoint master pages are set to IE8 compatibility by default, so to render HTML5 content we need to change this.
And there are two ways to do this.
1. Change the master page and set it as default for the whole site
2. Change just the web part page to render using IE9 compatibility
For either option we need to edit the master page:
In SharePoint Designer, make a copy of the master page (v4.master) and name it v4_ie9.master
Edit this new v4_ie9.master page
a. Change the content attribute value from IE=8 to IE=9
b. Save and check in v4_ie9.master
a. Change the content attribute value from IE=8 to IE=9
b. Save and check in v4_ie9.master
Method 1 - Set this master page as the default master page for the site.
This change will affect the rendering of all pages on the site as it will add the IE=9 attribute which will allow for HTML5 content to be rendered.
This change will affect the rendering of all pages on the site as it will add the IE=9 attribute which will allow for HTML5 content to be rendered.
Method 2 – Set this master page as the master page for only the web part page
Edit the web part page and change the masterfilereference to point to this new master page
to this
to this
Spend some time to review the code.
The search capability is simply looking at the property values for the Shape Data properties that are attached to the shapes in the diagram.
HTML 5 is supported in SharePoint 2010 by simply enabling it via a master page assigned to your site or your specific web part page.
If you look at the code there is also a XAML version of the overlay and the code looks to see what version of the overlay it should provide. I told you to force the Visio web part to render as HTML so we could show off HTML 5 and the <canvas> tag but you might enable both scenarios by unchecking that box. I suggest if you are going to provide overlays that you provide both an HTML and a XAML experience so that you can support desktops and mobile devices that might consume your dashboard.
Before implementing the change to x-ua-compatible, please make sure you read and understand the consequences of this change. I have a blog post on it here: get-spblog.com/.../html5-sp2010
Visual Studio Developer Center > Visual Studio Team System Forums > Team Foundation Server - Administration
Team Foundation Server - Administration
Discuss Team Foundation Server administration and operations.
Instead of globally forcing HTML5 within the masterpage, use the following technique to add it "on-demand" to specific pages:
Can somebody please help me with .js.
I want a function that renders the data from visio into the content editor.(all data from visio no data in sharepoint)
I want by clicking on some shape you can see the information on content editor and from there you can edit the information.

Dear TareqPhoto,
I would guess that if the film leader looks "thin", either the developer was weak or the time/temperature were insufficient. If the leader looks normal, then it might simply be insufficient exposure. Poor fixing would result in cloudy areas where the film should be clear. With luck the good ones will print nicely anyway.

Most of the shows I watch used to be NBC sitcoms — "The Office," "30 Rock," "Up All Night," "Perfect Couples," "Community," "Parks and Recreation." As you can see from that list, only two of those shows are currently airing, with one ("Community") all but cancelled last season, and renewed only after some very serious campaigning from fans.
So that time of the year when my network TV life hangs in the balance and I'm waiting to hear whether my beloved television shows will be renewed for another season makes me a little nervous.
This season, when it comes to NBC shows, things got particularly brutal. Rumor has it the station is trying to complete revamp itself. ABC had some major cuts, too, but it wasn't too bad for other stations! Here's a list of those shows that have been confirmed as renewed or canceled/not returning due to its being the final season, as well as a few Fall 2013 shows to look out for.
Renewed: Grey's Anatomy, Castle, Modern Family, The Middle, Nashville, Scandal, Revenge, Once Upon a Time, Suburgatory, The Neighbors, Last Man Standing
Canceled/Series ended: Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23, Happy Endings, Private Practice, Red Widow, Body of Proof, Last Resort, 666 Park Avenue, The Family Tools, How to Live With Your Parents (For the Rest of Your Life), Mailbu Country
On the bubble: Mistresses (has not yet premiered)
Renewed: The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, Elementary, How I Met Your Mother, Criminal Minds, The Amazing Race, Blue Bloods, The Good Wife, Survivor, 2 Broke Girls, Hawaii Five-0, Mike & Molly, The Mentalist, Person of Interest, Undercover Boss
Canceled/Series ended: The Job, Made in Jersey, Rules of Engagement, Partners, CSI: NY, Vegas, Golden Boy
Renewed: The Mindy Project (OMG), New Girl, Bones, Raising Hope, The X Factor, American Idol (but the format will be completely different), MasterChef, Hotel Hell, The Following, Glee (actually renewed for two seasons), Kitchen Nightmares, American Dad, Bob's Burgers, Family Guy, The Simpsons
Canceled/Series ended: The Mob Doctor, Touch, Ben & Kate
On the bubble: The Goodwin Games (has not yet premiered)
Renewed: Parks and Recreation (yay!!!), Community (also yay!), Chicago Fire, Law & Order: SVU, Grimm, Parenthood, The Voice, Celebrity Apprentice, Revolution
Canceled/Series ended: Smash, The Office, 30 Rock, Guys With Kids, 1600 Penn, Go On, Whitney, Up All Night, Rock Center with Brian Williams, The New Normal, Do No Harm, Deception, Ready For Love, Animal Practice
On the bubble: Hannibal
I confess: many of the upcoming pilots sound a little like SNL skits to me. Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar as father/daughter? A gang member who must infiltrate a police department? A "Wonder Years"-type revival? There seem to be a lot of pilots to choose from, too, including remakes of old shows or shows that tell stories we're already familiar with. Here are a few of the fall 2013 programs to watch out for, which I admit I chose totally at random because there are a lot. (For a full list, check out EW.)
Agents of SHIELD: Based on Marvel comics, the show features the secret law-enforcement agency that famously reigns in superheroes like Iron Man. Clark Gregg (yes, Agent Coulson lives!) stars.
Once Upon a Time in Wonderland: Spin-off of "Once Upon a Time," but takes place in Wonderland, told from Alice's perspective.
Crazy Ones: Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar play a father/daughter team working at an ad agency.
The Millers: Following a recent divorce, one man (Will Arnett) has to cope with parents who have their own marriage issues.
Sleepy Hollow: Ichabod Crane partners with Sleepy Hollow's local female sheriff to solve a town's mysteries.
Almost Human: A buddy cop show with a spin. It's set in the future, when all LAPD officers have androids for partners. Stars Karl Urban and Michael Ealy.
The Michael J. Fox Show: Based on Michael J. Fox's life, he plays Mike Henry, a former news anchor who has Parkinson's disease. The show follows him as he returns to his old job.
Ironside: A police detective, who is left in a wheelchair following a shooting, leads a team of officers to solve the city's biggest crimes. This is a remake, starring Blair Underwood.

Upset about Malibu Country.Watched it all the time,didn't miss a show.Not impressed by the returning shows and the new ones look a bit dismal or lukewarm.
July 8, 2013 at 10:00 AM
It's always the best shows that get canceled. I am amazed at some shows I think are awful that stay on forever, and others that seem fantastic that get the axe after just a season!
August 8, 2013 at 8:33 AM
I can't believe they canceled Vegas. It was just getting good. Damm!
July 24, 2013 at 2:28 PM
Total bummer. Maybe Netflix will pick it up like they did "Arrested Development"!
August 8, 2013 at 9:02 AM
why is body of proof being cancelled? my family loves that show. It is very educational, too. it is a lot better than once upon a time which you are keeping
August 6, 2013 at 7:40 PM
There was some talk about "Body of Proof" moving to a different station, but it looks like that fell through Sorry to hear the show will be cancelled! I hope a new show comes along that you love just as much.
August 8, 2013 at 9:01 AM
I totally agree. I can not believe that Body of Proof is being cancelled either. I really can't believe that "DO NO HARM" is being cancelled. It was great and different for once. A Dr. Jekyll and Hyde show. But, was only given what, 4 or 5 episodes. We have so many reality shows and so many crime dramas, when they finally put something different on like DO NO HARM or LAST RESORT, and then cancel it before the show even gets reviews. Most people can't or don't watch a show because they either have not heard of it or it is on while they are watching their normal favorite show. I think they should put shows that are up for cancellation on days like Saturday or Sunday and then watch how much attention they get. PERSONALLY, there are so many shows on that I love, but can't watch all 2 or 3 at the same time, I end up switching back and forth during commercials, and then end of missing something important. What I really like about some shows is that they air 2 or 3 times that week. So if I miss it on a Tuesday or Thursday, I can catch it again on the Friday, Saturday or Sunday. They should do that with all shows. I work full-time and enjoy laying back, relaxing and watching my favorite TV shows. I just wish they had better shows on the weekend. Please air some new and repeating shows on the weekends. Thank you for your time and consideration.
August 26, 2013 at 3:16 PM
I think a lot of networks want to create a show that's immediately the next "Big Bang Theory" or "Modern Family" in terms of ratings, and when that doesn't happen right away, they give up. So networks end up cycling through a bunch of TV shows without giving them a fair shot, and it makes us (the viewers!) less likely to want to tune in to things because we think, "Well, it will get cancelled anyway." It would be interesting to see how shows would fare on the weekends, though! I agree, there are so many good ones to watch it's sometimes hard to keep up.
August 27, 2013 at 9:15 AM
Agreed about Do No Harm but I take responsibility for it because I didn't get to watch it until I could do a marathon watch on Hulu but I think partly the promotion of it didn't draw my attention. I am so disappointed about it's cancellation. However, I am excited about the return of Once Upon a Time. I really enjoy the unfolding of all the interwoven stories.
August 31, 2013 at 1:16 PM
I also don't always get around to the shows I'm interested in until much later. Sometimes it's lack of promotion (like you said) but sometimes I just don't have the time to sit down and watch it until later in the season. Too many great shows to watch! I also like "Once Upon a Time" and I'm looking forward to its spin-off, "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland." I was a big fan of ABC's show "Lost" so I'm excited to see Naveen Andrews in the show as Jafar.

Commuters walk, ride as Tube strike continuesComment on this story
London - Millions of Londoners faced another morning of travel chaos on Thursday as a 48-hour strike by London Underground workers angry at ticket office closures and job cuts entered its second day.
Staff from the two main rail unions began the first of two planned 48-hour strikes late on Tuesday, leaving many people unable to get to work or forced to pack onto overcrowded buses, mainline trains or cycle.
Transport for London (TfL), which runs the capital's public transport network, reported that just one underground line was running normally at rush hour on Thursday with the remaining 10 either closed or operating a reduced service.
Talks between the unions and TfL are due to resume on Friday in a bid to avert a second 48-hour walk-out planned from February 11 to February 14.
TfL said commuters had found alternative ways around town on Wednesday, with a 50-percent increase in the use of its city cycle hire scheme, known by Londoners as "Boris bikes" after mayor Boris Johnson.
However, some workers opted to shun public transport altogether.
"Running to #ShoreditchHouse along the high street to beat the #tubestrike," Daniel Watts posted on Twitter. "11k in the bag and feel great." - Reuters

Sariel shows his Power Functions mastery yet again with this motorized model of Kaneda's Bike from Akira. The model features remote-control steering, working lights and even a dauntless driver who you get to find out by watching the video below. You can learn more about this project from the builder's website.
Tag Archives: Power Functions
Rugged as granite
Most truck builders I know either aim for looks, with relatively little functionality, or they go for the full Technic treatment, with lots of working functions, but often at the expense of the looks or details. With his Mack Granite heavy-duty truck, Ingmar Spijkhoven (2LegoOrNot2Lego) has combined the best of both worlds.
It has Power Functions remote control for the drive and steering, working lights and working suspension, and can be fitted with a flatbed trailer than can be raised and lowered via remote control. It also looks brilliant, with a beautifully sculpted hood, a detailed interior and a carefully modelled representation of the engine.
Following fellow Dutch truck builder Dennis Glaasker the presentation of the all the goodies is top notch too, with a clever photo-edit that shows some of the inner workings and details. It wouldn't look out of place in the manufacturer's brochure.
Functioning Lego Claas Jaguar forage harvester
Polish Lego builder Michał Skorupka (Eric Trax) made a functional Claas Jaguar forage harvester featuring rotating cutting discs, lights, RC function with steering and more. Check out the YouTube video to see this amazingly realistic model in action.
Remote-controlled Lego Batpod
The mastermind of RC Lego vehicles, Sariel, built a RC batpod featuring steering and lights. The genius lies in incorporating function into such a small model. Check out the video below to see it in action.
Smart brick for controling Lego vehicles
Check out this Kickstarter project by Mark Bollobas that introduces a Lego-compatible smart brick that lets you control your power-function vehicles with a smartphone via bluetooth.
Aztec themed Great Ball Contraption
It's even more visually pleasing to watch a GBC with a theme. This creation by IamKritch is worth a look. The first second of the video is enough to get me hooked.
Full R/C Articulated LEGO Technic Dump Truck
This monster construction vehicle by Technic guru pipasseyoyo is a complex blend of Technic engineering and skillful brick sculpting. The articulated dump truck is fully controlled by remote and features a tipping bed, six-wheel drive, and powered articulated steering. Be sure to check out the video of it in action.
DAF Dakar racer
Today is the start of this year's Dakar rally. This off-road race, for trucks, cars and motorbikes used to run from Paris to Dakar in Senegal, but because of worsening security in Northern Africa is nowadays held in South-America. Back in 1985, a Dutch team led by Jan de Rooy finished second in the truck category. They raced a much modified DAF 3300 known as The Bull, recreated by Nanko Klein Paste (nkle). The model has a Technic chassis and is remote-controlled using Power Functions, to participate in Truck Trial competitions organised by Lowlug.
I don't think I'm particularly prone to nationalism, except when it comes to my choice of beer and the sort of trucks I like. Forget your Scanias, Volvos or Kenworths; to me DAF trucks are king of the road. DAF has its home base in Eindhoven, in the south of the Netherlands, where I lived for more than ten years. I used to see trucks operated by De Rooy Transport haul DAF cabs through town on a regular basis.
The little big rig is a zippy RC
Back in 2009, LEGO released two sets (8183 and 8184 ) that got me pretty excited. The reason for my excitement was that these sets contained a car chassis that could be remote-controlled using a Power Functions IR-remote. This would make it relatively easy to build your own relatively compact remote-controlled car. I bought one, but it had about as much directional control as a puppy on a wet floor; it constantly bumped into walls or bits of furniture. It was fast, though.
Curtis D. Collins (curtydc) has now used a similar chassis to build his "little big rig". He too reports that the steering isn't great, but also that it is a zippy a little RC. I believe that, certainly with those big wheels. I also think it looks pretty cool. Like Barry Bosman's Monster Masher, it has a certain toy-like quality to it that reminds me of the RC cars that were around when I was a child.
Simply the Cat's Meow
Cole Edmonson just posted a great sculpture of his cat, Cooper. The light up eyes on this piece really put it over the top. My cat-loving daughter is going to want to build something like this of one of her cats…

It sounds like the best advice for you is to seek legal counsel to answer that question.
