Album Summary
- Howard Shelley (Piano)
Notes & Reviews:
Howard Shelley is an acknowledged expert in the area of early Romantic piano music. With this disc, Shelley presents the first installment of a sixvolume set of Mendelssohn's complete solo piano music - perhaps the least well-known part of the composer's repertoire. Mendelssohn composed or began nearly two hundred works for piano. However, only about seventy were published during his lifetime. They range from the Op.5 Capriccio, written in 1825, to the sixth volume of the Lieder ohne Worte Op.67, written in 1845. Some twenty-five additional pieces have been published posthumously. The remainder, whether fully drafted or fragmentary, were left to his musical estate or have disappeared. This first volume in Shelley's series includes Opp. 5, 6, and 7 and the first volume of his Lieder ohne Worte.
Where others sound strenuous and hard-pressed Shelley is fluent and urbane, a true keyboard aristocrat free to concentrate on the elusive poetry that lies at the heart of so much fiery pianistic intricacy.
Financial Times, 30th March 2013
A reassessment of what has hitherto been one of the most undervalued areas of the composer's output.
BBC Music Magazine, April 2013
Technically, this is a tremendous disc. All the evidence tells us that Mendelssohn was something of a speed merchant and when...he asks for Presto, Shelley takes him at his word, with a fleetness and control that command admiration, not to mention envy...I particularly like the sparsity of his pedalling, leaving the composer's lines to do their own work.
The Observer, 24th February 2013
It's good to see Howard Shelley embarking on a six-volume reappraisal of these works, so often seen as lacking the depth of Chopin and the fire of Liszt. Fans of fireworks won't be disappointed though...With playing of this quality this is going to be a series to treasure.
American Record Guide, July/August 2013
Shelley does his best to make them interesting, and it is certainly understood that in a comprehensive survey such as this. The notes are very good and the sound a model of excellence.

Introduction / History
The Baeggu people live on the northern end of Malaita in the Solomon Islands. Since the early 1900s, when Christian workers first arrived here, most consider themselves Christians. Despite that profession, many still perform rituals and keep rules to ensure good health, prosperity or abundant crops. These are holdovers from the animist roots in the culture.
Because the local economy is weak, Baeggu families struggle to find resources for school fees. Their community has little access to health services. Farming and fishing provide basic essentials.
Some families are able to send their children to boarding school in a larger city after sixth grade. Though this provides young adults with a valuable secondary education, few skilled jobs exist in the tight urban job market. Graduates are reluctant to return to the rural occupations of their parents. This mixture of circumstances is creating a jobless generation.
Many Baeggu speakers don't understand the Bible in English. They have a vague idea, guessing at the interpretation of what they hear in church. Many Malaitans are hungry for truth, seeking out "fresh revelation," which opens doors for teachers who have their own agendas. Baeggu believers need to be able to discern for themselves the truth based on a true understanding of what God's Word actually says.

Leblon, Rio de Janeiro
11 Reviews
11 Reviews
The least known of the central beaches of Rio de Janeiro, Leblon is referenced as the safest but the most expensive.
Well, safe it was, expensive... one thing are the patterns for locals, the other is for tourists.
For us, the price is generally higher, no matter the country and town that you visit. So, there was no reason to sacrifice the security, and we didn't, but we were there in winter, caught some bad days, and swim has been impossible.
The pollution of the lagoon Rodrigo de Freitas, sometimes invades the sea, and the nearby beaches are affected. That was the case of Ipanema during our visit, but not Leblon. But I think you should verify this before any reserve
Separated from Ipanema by a canal, Leblon is one of the most exclusive neighbourhoods in Rio. The name Leblon is a corruption of le Blond, the name of the wealthy Frenchman who once owned this piece of land. Like Ipanema and Copacabana, Leblon saw its mansions replaced with modern tower blocks over the past decades. With only a handful of hotels, the area is more residential than touristy and contains many good restaurants and lots of high end shopping. A pointed twin peak, named Morro Dois Irmãos ("two brothers"), with a visible favela, serves as a backdrop to Leblon. The beach is popular with families, but it is said that sea pollution is a problem here (though not in Ipanema), particularly after heavy rains.
At first sight it seems to be only one, but actually that long beavh is divided by three, Arpoador, Ipanema and LEBLON.
Leblon is in the right hand of the coast, and it is actually the most exclusive district in our shore, at least the place has an unique style, and the point where the beach is divided is in the Jardim do Alah where you can see a channel which gives water to the Lagoon called Rodrigo de Freitas or simply known as Lagoa. The tide there is really strong so avoid swimming in this area!
May 11th, 2006
Leblon is a bairro , immediately adjacent to Ipanema and ends where the beach blvd "hits" the DOIS IRMÃOS rock, an impressive, a few hundred meters high, solid piece of a rock formation... There the beach blvd turns into narrow and winding Ave. Oscar Niemeyer (the "Brasilia architect", have a look at my Brasilia page...) that will lead you from Leblon to São Conrado..(another bairro ).
Way at the beginning of Ave. Oscar Niemeyer there's an ample terrace made out of wood from where you can see all of Leblons and Ipanemas shores and feel like you're in the agitated water below you... Last year around Xmas we stopped there and also shot a few pics.... This was about ten minutes before a nasty summer storm broke loose, but we were able to save ourselves into the car before getting wet to the skin.....
Pic # 1: I with Thales Gabriel (4 years) sporting some artificial smiles with a sky looking threatening and menacing behind us...
Pic # 2: Five of my six kids, Thales in Vinicius' arm , kneeling Anna and Denis and Benji standing on the right....The two girls in the middle are Evani (pink top), Annas nanny and Miraci ( white top), Evanis cousin.....
This lookout terrace is a nice place to spend 15 minutes but not when it pours....
Leblon is right next to Ipanema and a neighborhood for well-to-do people. There are plenty of bars (botequims), restaurants and clubs to go to. Some of the choices are Melt for some dancing or Davessa if you prefer to hang out and have a beer.
Leblon is the continuation of Ipanema neighborhood and beach. Their separation border is the place known as Jardim de Alah, a nice place with a lovely channel in it. Leblon is even more classy than Ipanema, and its discos and restaurants are also the preferred by tourists and locals. Lodging in here is also expensive, more than in Ipanema.
Although I liked the place, I think it lacked the life that you can find in any other places in Rio. There are some discos and pubs that might be attractive for tourists (like Cozumel or Melk discos, I went twice and they were cool). But as for the rest, like restaurants or attractions, it seemed to me a neighborhood as quiet and normal as any other. It didn't had the lively sparkle that I found in Ipanema or Copacabana. Indeed, its beach didn't look as swimming-tempting to me as that of Ipanema. Leblon would be the ideal place to spend one afternoon doing shopping (if I can afford their high prices, hehe :-) or one night dancing. No more than that.
Ipanema and Leblon are contiguous and, if you are walking along the beachfront, you might pass from one to the other without noticing. Ipanema ends, and Leblon starts, where the canal from Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas comes out to the sea (you may notice it by a power shovel and a mound of sand on the beach; the canal has to be excavated continuously to prevent it from being blocked by sand).
In Leblon, there are few beachfront restaurants and bars; people, both residents and tourists alike, come here to take part in the beach life and the stroll along the sea. You can stop at one of the kiosks on the side of the pavement for the refreshing treat of coconut water. For me, it's the best of Rio's in-town beaches.
Inland, Leblon is a posh neighborhood of upscale condos and shops, and it has a particularly good selection of restaurants (a couple of them reviewed under the restaurant section).
On the far western end of Ipanema is the area known as Leblon. When you're walking on the beach, you can walk toward the mountain peak that is visible on one end of the beach and you'll know you're walking toward Leblon. If you're walking away from the beach, you'll know you're in Leblon when you cross the drainage canal that drains water from the lagoon into the ocean. Also, Av. Vieira Souto becomes Av. Delfim Moreira. This area is full of good restaurants, most of them clustered on or near Av. Ataulfo de Paiva.
Leblon and Ipanema are really nice places to just walk pointlessly. There is something happening everywhere (especially in the afternoon). Here is the street by the beach in Leblon. By the way, see the mountain in the back? The hills of that mountain would have an amazing view of Leblon, Ipanema and the ocean. But can you go there? No, because it's the favelas (slums!) It actually lights up at night.
Leblon beach begins where the chanel at Jardim De Alah passes through going towards to the sea.
The chanel separates Leblon from Ipanema.
Sao Conrado,located at Gavea,better know as Praia Do Pepino,is the landing area for the city's hang gliders.
Barra Da Tijuca is Rio's longest beach,strechting along Sernambetiba Avenue,and the favourite among the Cariocas.
One of the favourite spots is the area around the "Barraca Do Pepe",a famous Brazilian hang glider who died in a competition outside
Brazil!!(there is a famous song about Pepe,written by Caetano Veloso,and in 2 versions,one sing by Baby Consuelo,and one sing by Caetano himself,the name of the song is "Menino Do Rio", written when he was the famous and most handsome guy in Rio's beaches!!).
His kiosk is famous for its natural sandwiches!I can't go to the beach without stoping there to have my "sanduba".
Leblon and Ipanema for the Arts.
Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas and nearby cafes and theatre houses for the perfect weekend!
Centro is a must for the historical bit! The picture is from the outside of the National Gallery of Fine Arts, one of the best in town!

ConocoPhillips will sell its 100% interest in the Clyden oil sands leasehold to Imperial Oil and ExxonMobil Canada for approximately $720 million (C$751 million) before customary adjustments.
[oil sands]
ConocoPhillips announced it has entered into an agreement to
sell its 100 percent interest in the Clyden oil sands leasehold
to Imperial Oil and ExxonMobil Canada for approximately $720
million (C$751 million) before customary adjustments.
Comprising 226,000 net acres of undeveloped land, Clyden is
located near the southern edge of the Athabasca oil sands and
south of Fort McMurray, Alberta.
This transaction is a significant step toward
rebalancing our world-class oil sands portfolio, said Don
Wallette, executive vice president, Commercial, Business
Development and Corporate Planning. We are pleased
Imperial Oil and ExxonMobil Canada recognize the value of the
Clyden asset.
ConocoPhillips currently holds approximately 1.1 million net
acres of land in the Athabasca Region of northeastern Alberta.
The significant bitumen deposits on these lands are estimated
to contain approximately 16 billion net barrels of resources,
making ConocoPhillips the holder of one of the largest land and
resource positions in the region.
ConocoPhillips expects to record an after-tax gain of
approximately $450 million, which will be recognized upon
closing anticipated later in the third quarter of 2013. Closing
is contingent upon approval by Canadas Competition

PADRES: Infielder Cantu signed to contract
The Padres added a power bat to their lineup when they signed infielder Jorge Cantu to a major league contract on Monday night, a team source said.
The source spoke on the condition of anonymity because the signing is pending a physical.
Cantu, 29, has played first, second and third base during a career that began in 2004. Though he is coming off a down season in which he hit a combined .256 with 11 homers and 56 RBIs for the Florida Marlins and Texas Rangers, Cantu has driven in at least 90 runs three times in his career.
This offseason, the Padres have revamped an offense that finished 12th in the National League with 665 runs scored last year. While trading All-Star Adrian Gonzalez to the Boston Red Sox for three prospects and letting several other prominent players leave via free agency, the Padres have added center fielder Cameron Maybin and shortstop Jason Bartlett in separate trades. They also signed first baseman Brad Hawpe and second baseman Orlando Hudson.
Cantu hit .289 with 16 homers and 100 RBIs in 2009 and .277 with 29 homers and 95 RBIs in 2008, both with the Marlins.
FoxSports.com originally reported the signing.

Private Libraries, School Libraries, and
Sunday School Libraries
Chapter 1 gave reasons for omitting three kinds of libraries from the main part of this study. All three existed in large numbers in America before 1876, but not enough information is available about individual libraries to permit comparison with the kinds mentioned in chapters 1 through 11. However, an idea as to the prevalence of these three types can be obtained by examining actual counts and estimates reported in surveys compiled before 1876. In chapter 12, each of the three kinds will be considered separately, and then they will be considered as a group.
Of course, private libraries in the hands of persons who influenced the direction of American thought and life were of some significance for the history of culture in this country. And the presence of many thousands of small libraries, owned and used by Americans of lesser stature, may be of more significance than we realize.
Before 1876, the compilers of lists of libraries varied in their attitudes toward private collections. Usually these persons omitted them, but they sometimes included them—often with reluctance. Charles C. Jewett, who was responsible for the earliest extensive list that attempted to include various kinds of libraries, wrote: [My investigations have not been limited to the public libraries, though I have not felt at liberty to make detailed statements respecting private collections. In one sense they are public libraries. Almost without exception, access to them is freely allowed to all persons who wish to use them for research.] In later remarks he makes clear that he has in mind larger collections formed by [scholars.]1
The compilers of the 1850 census gathered information about some of the private collections that numbered more than one thousand volumes apiece, but

Some 70 percent of Agriculture employees are now eligible to telework. (Stock image)
The Agriculture Department's effort to move its thousands of employees to a telework program is advancing quickly, and three-quarters of them are now eligible to work under the initiative, according to telework managers.
Mika Cross, who leads work/life and wellness programs at USDA, said about 75 percent of the department's more than 90,000 employees are eligible for telework agreements in 2013, up from just 16,000 eligible employees in 2011.
Speaking at an FCW Executive Briefing on May 30, Cross said USDA managers have embraced the ideas behind the 2010 Telework Enhancement Act requiring federal agencies to establish telework policies, notify employees who are eligible to telecommute and provide them with appropriate training.
Robin Bailey, deputy administrator for management at USDA's Food and Nutrition Service, said telework not only makes employees happier and more productive but can also yield significant savings for the agency -- if telework capabilities are implemented thoughtfully.
"It's a budget driver," he said, and it helps consolidate unused office space across hundreds of the agency's far-flung facilities. The consolidation and office-sharing opportunities that telework has precipitated at USDA has saved millions of dollars, he added.
By working with USDA property managers, IT personnel and human resources staff, Bailey said the agency is seeking to reduce the amount of space per employee from 150 square feet to 135. And in a 2011 essay on USDA's telework efforts, Cross wrote that when real estate, employee turnover, absenteeism and productivity are all taken into account, the program could yield as much as $250 million in annual savings for the agency.
As it reaps the benefits from the policy, USDA has also learned some lessons. The primary one is that telework might not be for everyone. For instance, employees in rural offices who need face-to-face contact with the public are not the best candidates, Cross said. Workers who inspect agricultural facilities are natural telecommuters, however, and already use a broad range of mobile devices in their travels.
Another lesson is that not all offices face the same weather-related issues. That might be obvious, but a strict telework arrangement that is set up for a Washington, D.C., snowstorm might not translate well in the desert southwest, Cross observed. And USDA's offices in rural areas might not have the necessary broadband connections to support effective data transfer, document sharing or teleconferencing.
Adapting to changing technology is another work in progress, Cross and Bailey agreed. "We use all kinds of technology, [including] webcams, tablets and PCs," to facilitate telework, Bailey said. Because USDA comprises 33 agencies and offices, working across the various legacy systems can be a challenge, he added. "Plug-and-play can be difficult," he said. "There's no common platform." He said the key is to get the IT department in the game early and ask it to focus on applications and capabilities.
There are also some subtleties in dealing with management and workforce politics, Bailey said. "We had to talk with unions" as the program moved forward, he said. With the new policy and computers equipped with webcams for teleconferencing, there were some concerns about management "spying" on employees.
And buying technology for diverse agency applications is still a developing area for USDA, Cross said. "That's a hard issue," she admitted.
NOTE: This article has been updated to correct the number of employees now eligible to telework, as well as to clarify estimated annual savings.

Species such as the horse chestnut, birch, rowan, hazel, hawthorn and blackthorn would normally be in glorious full bloom by now.
But the coldest winter for 31 years means that many trees are still completely bare of leaves.
Others have only just started to sprout foliage in recent days thanks to spring finally arriving after Easter.
The late spring and lack of leaves can be seen in startling matching photos taken of the famous Chestnut Avenue in Bushy Park, one of London's Royal Parks by Hampton Court Palace.
In a photo taken this time last year, the rows of verdant horse chestnuts make for one of the most dramatic, natural outdoor sights of spring in the capital.
But this week, the same trees look forlorn by comparison without any leaves as spring has not yet sprung for them.
And many street trees are not expected to leaf at all. Experts say that tens of thousands are likely to have been killed by the salt used to de-ice roads during the big freeze this winter.
Some species like the oak, ash and plane – which are common street trees - are not due to leaf until the end of April or start of May.
The true scale of tree casualties will only become clear as they fail to leaf in coming weeks.
Jon Stokes, the Tree Council's rural programmes director, said the true scale of tree casualties will only become clear as they fail to leaf in coming weeks.
"Trees need warm temperatures to come back to life in spring. When temperatures pick up, the buds on branches swell and burst and leaves start to appear.
"The harsh winter has seen too many frosts and it has not been warm enough until now to get the whole leafing process going.
"Many trees are three to four weeks late leafing.
"Hawthorn and blackthorn are still without leaves.
"Over the last ten days, spring has suddenly arrived and it is all happening now or will do soon with a bang for birch, rowan, hazel and horse chestnut.
"But that is up to a month later than we would have expected."
Britain has around four billion trees with the vast majority in rural areas.

So I work in a cubical environment. I listen to the phone conversations of my neighbor because he talks particularly loud. The phone rings, he answers it.
> No, I'm not interested, take me off your list.
> ....
> 2 minutes later after being hassled and coaxed to stay on the line
> No, I'm not interested, I don't want the magazine, take me off your list.
Ok, so that was annoying for him. Glad it's not me.
A few minutes later my phone rings.
Me: Hello?
Them: Hi, this is bla bla bla, would you like a free technical magazine for a year?
Me: I'm sorry I'm not interested.
Them: Oh may I ask why not?
Me: Because I just got diagnosed with Cancer and I only have about a Month to live.
Them: [completely new tone] Uhh.. Er... I'm Soo Sorry. Goodbye <click>
Rather than me having to hang up on them, they hung up on me! I think I really frazzled that lady too. I felt kinda bad afterwards. Maybe she'll get a better job anyway and it will be for the best.
It was really effective at ending the conversation. What are they going to say? Wouldn't you like to take this magazine to the grave with you?

true story how i have fun with telemarketers. simple 3 steps and so far it works. My friends started doing it so I think everyone should know.
1. telemarketer calls you offering crap like usual. They usually do a blah blah...
2. Only say this and this only, " do you like whip cream licked out of your ***?"
3. they hang up.
optional 4. every once in a while they say, "what?" Then repeat #2.
serious this does work and its kind of fun.

I just hang up.
Got better things to do with my time.
I used to be polite and listen to them talk for a while and then politely excuse myself. But I realized there was nothing polite about what they were doing (unsolicited invasion into my home), so why shouldn't I return the "courtesy"? All they get is a "click" on the line now.

Just put your number in www.donotcall.gov and if you still get a call, you can report it on that site. I used to just let them talk as long as they want while I'm doing whatever, and when there's a pause after the whole 5-10 minute speech I just ask them to repeat the whole thing. They usually don't repeat it more than once though.
I used to act like it was a phone sex call.
Them: Would you be interested in ...
Me: Oh yes, baby.
Them: Umm... It includes [...]
Me (as they are talking): Daddy likes!...moan...Oh yes!...say that part again!
Them: What?
Me: Hang on, let me get my pants off.
Them: Huh?
Me: What are you wearing?
Usually they hang up.

Soaking the roots is usually for plants that have been shipped and allowed to dry out. If these bushes are moved in one day or healed in and planted later soaking isn't needed. Air pockets in the root zone aren't really a problem. We charge people to put air pockets in the root zone of their lawns all the time. Watering is a bit of an art. Most plant losses in the landscape are either too much (amount or frequency) or too little water. When the plant leafs out in Spring, insufficient water causes smaller leaves. Up to a point more water and food will give larger leaves. Any damaged roots can be pruned before replanting.
How dehydrated does a bush get, when taken out of the ground for t-plant... soaking in a bucket of water is done around here for all hardwooded plant after "transport" home from the nursery...
Air pockets from a t-plant, is very important and has not to do with aerating established over grown plant that have grown in the same spot for years...
The mixing of apples and oranges are really rampant in planting shrubs...
No wonder the comments are made about,,, "don't move it to another property, becuz it never works"...
My transplanting success rate has been near 100% , whether from one side of the yard to the other or from across town...
Never would I shy away from t-planting anything for a client unless it is too large and requires a spade truck...
Now that I know that clay's texture(platelets) has nothing to do with water infiltration, percolation, or drainage,,, I wonder what does...

Author writing about Palin moves next door to her
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) -- Sarah Palin has taken to her Facebook page to complain about her new neighbor — a writer penning a book about her.
Author Joe McGinniss has taken up residence in a house next to Palin's lakeside home in Wasilla.
McGinniss previously wrote an expose on Palin for a magazine, and is planning a book about the former Alaska governor and GOP vice presidential candidate. It's tentatively titled, "Sarah Palin's Year of Living Dangerously."
Palin wondered on Facebook "what kind of material he'll gather while overlooking Piper's bedroom, my little garden, and the family's swimming hole?"
She says he's renting the place "for the next five months or so."
McGinniss wasn't available for comment, but his publishing house says "McGinniss will be highly respectful of his subject's privacy as he investigates her public activities."

Saving Jack: Religion, Benevolent
Organizations, and Union Sailors
during the Civil War
Michael J. Bennett
IN HIS WORK For Cause & Comrades: Why Men Fought in the Civil War, James M. McPherson contends that, as products of the Second Great Awakening, "Civil War armies were, arguably, the most religious in American history."1 Many soldiers, he contends, marched off to war with Bibles in their pockets. Not so for Union sailors, who "with few exceptions" were more prone to throw their Bibles aside.2 Overall, most men who served as Union sailors in the Civil War seemed to lack the religious dedication McPherson attributes to their brothers in arms. Unlike the soldiers' experience, sailors' time in the navy during the Civil War lessened, rather than encouraged, genuine and expedient reliance upon prayer, conventional religious practices, and faith in God. Much of the blame for failing to save "Jack" falls upon the navy, which took actions that effectively discouraged religious expression aboard ships and helped turn the irreligious impulses of its recruits into fixed patterns of behavior. The navy failed to provide enough chaplains and Bibles, worked sailors on Sundays, and abandoned a prewar policy of mandatory attendance at Sunday services. Stirred by charges of Sabbath desecration and a perceived erosion in religious sentiment among an already irreligious set of men, the United States Christian Commission launched a vigorous

Men who are overweight are just as likely as overweight women to experience interpersonal discrimination when applying for a job or shopping at retail stores, according to new research from psychologist Mikki Hebl.
A new universitywide scholarly consortium of faculty fellows and distinguished postdoctoral fellows has been created to significantly raise Rice's overall research profile by fostering intellectual exchange and advancement of research.
Medical professionals know that when a spouse dies, the surviving partner is at increased risk of suffering early mortality – but they don't entirely understand why. Professor Chris Fagundes has received a $3.765M R01 grant from the NIH to study the connection between psychological and physiological responses to stress.
The Martha and Henry Malcolm Lovett Chair of Psychology, Hebl is one of three finalists for Baylor University's 2016 Robert Foster Cherry Award for Great Teaching, one of the country's top collegiate teaching honors.
Graduate ProgramOur graduate program is unique in that our faculty, together with our graduate students, work in Research Interest Groups (RIGs) allowing for tailor-made programs based on shared research interests.
Undergraduate ProgramPsychology goes beyond disciplinary boundaries and represents the scientific study of the mind and behavior from multiple levels of analysis. It is among the most popular majors at Rice.

Where am I?
Later Edit: I recall the Hawthorn Station became very run down, maybe in the 1980s. I think a new station was proposed but the local residents wanted their old one restored and successfully argued their case. Well done Adam and Daniel for a quick answer.
I am not so keen on the grubby looking timber but overall, the station is quite nice. Not quite so nice is the graffiti. The bricked up arches are interesting. It would be very interesting if they were open to the outside and people could just stroll across the track. Ted, get onto the graffiti will ya.

It looks like Hawthorn station to me. I used to use that station when I was studying uni at nearby Burnley College, so I am pretty sure I recognise those steps.ReplyDelete
Peter, you are on the mark. Not exactly inner, just past. Depends how you define inner really. We would now say it is a Metro station, Metro being the private company that runs our trains. Metlink is an overall body that has more to do with timetables than anything else.ReplyDelete
Quite so Adam. Well done. I don't think there is another station like it. I will edit the post soon and add some extra detail.
Yep, Hawthorn Stn. Geelong Stn has a similar footbridge under the roof; I'm not sure any other stations do.ReplyDelete
Daniel, I knew you would know it, having been a local resident. It was who saw the post first. I will ask my sister about Geelong Station.ReplyDelete
Not having graced Hawthorn with my presence I wouldn't have had the foggiest.ReplyDelete
Geelong and Ballarat both have those footbridges and are enclosed, would have looked magnificent through enveloping steam years ago.

I can't help you directly with your questions about the camera except to say that it's not at all unusual for cameras of this vintage to need new light seals. It shouldn't be an expensive job and depending upon what you paid for the camera shouldn't necessarily be a deal-breaker. However, considering the description and the condition you describe, you may want to return it to the seller. In any case, you should contact the seller regarding the discrepancies.
Ebay is a crap shoot. It can work very well if you know the seller, are very familiar with the goods involved, get lucky - or all three. If you're starting out in a realm in which you're unfamiliar, you're usually better off going to a reputable retailer who will stand behind his product.

Dancing with the Stars: Kirstie Alley Works Her Curves and Loves It! (Video)Emma Brady
Fat or skinny? Kirstie Alley OWNS it all!
First she strutted down a runway on Oprah in a bikini after losing 75 lbs. Then she became the Jenny Craig spokesperson. Then she regained much of the weight. Then she put her battle of the bulge on display on Kirstie Alley's Big Life. Finally she's winning the battle and showing off her healthier (but not perfect) on Dancing with the Stars. The one thing we know about Kirstie Alley – she's just like the many of us waging a battle with the scale that seems to never end.
Watch Kirstie Alley's Quickstep performance below….
What if your battle to maintain a healthy weight was chronicled on magazine covers and tv shows? It's hard enough to fight that fight alone, but will million of eyes on you it must be impossible. Not for Kirstie Alley. It's her humor that has carried her through a battle that ranged between a low of 114 lbs and a high of 230 lbs. Now it's her confidence that has to carry her through the high profile dance competition.
For now Kirstie is winning her battle to slim down having lost 60 lbs before joining the show with another 40 lbs that she hopes to lose with the help of DWTS. If tonight is any hint, Kirstie's going to reign in that inner confidence and work those curves while she's got them!
What did you think of Kirstie's performance on Dancing with the Stars? Can Kirstie find the confidence to win it all?

Well when I say "dumped" I mean into my "selenium bucket." I dump used toner into a bucket reserved for that purpose and let it evaporate. The selenium will be left. Eventually the bucket can be taken to a hazmat disposal. In the meantime, it avoids putting it into the environment.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 22.214.171.124
Forum Moderators: open
Is it an ok alternative to FTP copy the page I want to change to my local drive, edit w/ NotePad, and then FTP back to server? Or will I break some FrontPage code doing it that way? Thanks for the help!
Tricky question. It all depends on what you are changing. If it is just content that resides outside of any included content, then you should be fine.
If its part of any included content, then you will need to "Recalculate Hyperlinks" from your Admin Console from within FrontPage. But wait, you don't have FP extensions installed. That probably means that the site doesn't rely on any of FP's functionality to make it work. If that is the case, then changes shouldn't be a problem.
Hey pageoneresults,
I am surprised you missed that part about no extensions ;)
[edited by: Marshall at 5:31 pm (utc) on Sep. 10, 2007]
Would that have the possibility of breaking something on the existing website?
There is "always a possibility". But, the probability is what counts and in this case, it is very low. ;)
I have this vision of hitting the wrong key and deleting the site.
While that too is a possibility, the probability factor is very low. In my case, its been null. I learned the hard way. :)
You cannot add anything new to the site with EW
I beg to differ. In Expression, you can create forms as you would in FP or using asp.net. To do it as in FP, you drag form elements from the "toolbox" onto a page then right-click the form field and select "Form Properties." From there, it is the same as doing it in FP.
[edited by: Marshall at 12:31 pm (utc) on Sep. 11, 2007]
From the MS site:
The new product does not use Front Page Extensions. It IS 'backward compatible" with earlier versions of Front Page. If there is a webbot in an old site then you will be able to edit it just like you do now. You will not, however, be able to create a new webbot.

Wow. Look at that pair. Those are some serious boobs. I mean, I can't recall the last time I saw bigger boobs.
Get your minds out of the gutter, people – I was talking about Adam Johnson and Micah Richards. A right pair of useless tits, those two are.
To their credit, the Manchester City duo were on hand for a charity auction this past Sunday held at the home of ex-footballer Ashley Ward and his wife Dawn. The Crème de la Crème ball had over 600 guests, all of whom were of the upper-crust variety.
Over £190,000 ($297,000) was raised for several charities related to illnesses that afflicted the Ward's daughter Aston. Of that total, £12,000 ($19,000) came from Johnson and Richards, who combined to bid on a dinner date with Katie Price.
The British "personality" (Page 3 girl, model, actress, etc.) increased the bidding by noting that her husband, MMA fighter Alex Reid (who appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK with Vinnie Jones, Lady Sovereign, Heidi Fleiss and Stephen Baldwin), would not be accompanying her on the date.
Given Price's career as a Page 3 girl (i.e. topless model) – back when she was known as "Jordan" – and Micah Richards' sexual proclivities for roasting, I think poor Adam Johnson has no idea what he has gotten himself into.

The manufacturer promises that more devices will be added to the list in the coming weeks.When Google Maps Navigation got introduced we were of course very positive about the idea. Having voice navigation for free is an unquestionable privilege, but it now seems long time leader in the mobile industry, Nokia, has wisely decided to follow suit and make its Ovi Maps turn-by-turn service available for free. We knew the company will be making an Ovi-related announcement today, but didn't really expect it would be that cool. Starting now, ten of Nokia's smartphones, including the
In addition, all devices released after March 10 with build-in GPS will come preloaded with the new Ovi Maps and local country map data, along with Lonely Planet and Michelin travel guides, all for free.
In contrast to Google's service, which is currently only available in the US, voice turn-by-turn guidance with Ovi Maps will support 74 countries in 46 languages, as well as traffic information for more than 10 countries. We feel it is more than a decent alternative to Google's offering, having in mind it does not require you to have internet connection.

Whereas Dana's always telling us something other than "Just wait, what's going to happen in the next year is going to blow your mind." By that he means a new season of TUF and a Shane Carwin doll.

Best experience I've ever had getting my license. Efficient and really friendly. Loved the relaxed atmosphere. Helpful people at this office. Be sure to go here for all your DMV/DOR type needs, you won't be sorry!
Thanks for all the help and the smiles!
I found the office personnel to be very rude. I was talking to the manager and the lady that waited on me when others in the office chimed in with their opinions about the matter. One even stopped waiting on her customer to chime in and to tell me that I was being belligerent.
Poor service with egregiously bad manners and a smart alec young woman who's "service" skills are seriously lacking. The intentional and purposeful causing of people to wait in line while talking with others in the office demonstrated that some people skills and professionalism needs to be learned in this office.

As Jacob Walters describes it, his curveball was working "well enough." His fastball worked better, he said, and the Wapahani senior put together a performance that gave his team a 4-1 victory against South Vermillion in the semifinals of the Class 2A Wabash baseball regional on Saturday.
Walters faced the minimum number of batters in four of the seven innings he pitched. He accomplished the feat with two 1-2-3 innings and with the help of two double plays.
"That's really important," Walters said. "Because then you don't have as much pressure on your shoulders." ...

German Lufthansa to cut 3,500 jobs
Germany's biggest airline Lufthansa has announced plans to slash 3,500 administrative jobs worldwide in the next few years as part of its cost cutting program. Airline Lufthansa AG said on Thursday it would achieve the work force reduction "in the coming years" by combining redundant functions and dropping "activities that do not create added value for our customers," adding that some functions could be outsourced. "Only if we restructure our administrative functions and accept a work force reduction can we keep jobs long-term and create new ones," the company's CEO Christoph Franz said. The news comes one day after Lufthansa reported a first quarter operating loss of over 520 million dollars. The airline now hopes to improve its operating revenues by 2 billion dollars by the end of 2014. The aim is to help Lufthansa cope with high fuel prices, fierce competition from low-cost carriers and a weak European economy. MSH/MYA

Dear Justice Clarence Thomas:
Since you first emerged on the national legal scene during the summer of 1991 when former President George H. W. Bush tapped you to replace the late Thurgood Marshall on the U.S. Supreme Court, you were met with skepticism - if not outright derision - from many blacks who did not share your political or judicial philosophies.
That summer, while preparing to begin my sophomore year at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga., I learned that I had been granted column space in the school's Maroon Tiger newspaper. As my politics were decidedly conservative, my first article ...

London Financial Jobs May Climb in Second Half, Survey Shows
About half of financial services companies in London expect job vacancies to rise in the second-half of the year, according to a survey by recruitment consultants Morgan McKinley.
About 47 percent of respondents said hiring levels would increase, while 29 percent said they would stay the same, according to today's survey. About 48 percent said pay will stay the same as the first-half of the year and 47 percent said it will increase.
"Overall, there is still a lack of clarity as to how healthy the financial services hiring market will be over the rest of the year," said Andrew Evans, managing director of Morgan McKinley's financial-services unit, in the statement. "With financial institutions awaiting greater visibility on regulatory issues and the impact of the debt issue, it remains to be seen how strong job growth will be."
Governments, forced to rescue their nations' financial services firms, are pressuring the industry to curb banker compensation. The International Monetary Fund in April called on the Group of 20 leaders to tax banks to help pay for future bailouts. In December, the U.K. put a one-time 50 percent levy on bankers' discretionary bonuses.
The survey showed 71 percent of the 194 respondents, drawn from personnel and hiring managers at financial services companies, said bonuses would stay the same and 17 percent expect them to rise.
Separately, Morgan McKinley said job vacancies at London's financial services firms fell 2 percent in June to 5,645 from a month earlier. The average salary for candidates securing new roles fell 4 percent in June to 53,231 pounds ($80,895) from a month earlier.

HairFinity! Putting It To The Test!
My New Weave Look!
It is no secret that I wear weave. I've had a lot of hair drama over the years. My hair had been long. Then I cut it off and wore it short for many years. Then it just wouldn't grow back to my original length. Then I weaved it for a year, going back and fourth to Ellen Lavar in New York and hanging out with Luke in the meantime. In that year, it grew back to my original long length but it also grew gray. Listening to the choir, I colored the gray. With the relaxer and color, it was just to much for my hair. Over months, I painfully watched, my hair fall out in the sink, in my hand and in my comb.
Then two years ago, I got my hair weaved by Trayce Madre and it has grown, surpassing my original length. Today, for the most part, I have pretty healthy hair and all of my relaxer is gone. Yep, I'm natural under my weave. Weave has been a protecter to allow my hair to grow without all the heat from blow drying and curling.
Me and Tymeka creator of HairFinity at BlogHer
While at BlogHer I met the owner of Hairfinity. Now I have to be honest. I have seen their Intsagram testimonies and I didn't believe the hype. Tiara and I have had a few conversations about this hair vitamin that claims to help your hair become healthy and grow. So when I saw their booth at BlogHer I stopped and told them what I thought. You know I'm never short of opinions and they met me word for word. LOL! But no, they were really nice about it. You can read about how Hairfinity works here.
I had a couple of conversations with the women working the booth at Hairfinity. One who is a breast cancer survivor. She cut her hair when she started chemotherapy. She told me that she wanted to have control, rather than surrender it to chemotherapy. She has been taking Hairfinity for a month and I was honestly impressed. She had more hair then I would have thought.
Another woman working the booth lost all of her hair in a car accident. The accident disfigured most of her face. She not only lost her hair, but also her hair line was virtually gone. I saw the pictures for myself. You talking about her life as a miracle, just the facial reconstruction alone was remarkable. Honestly, I just couldn't see how any of her hair would grow back after her cousin showed me the pictures and pointed to the woman in the picture standing a few feet away from me. "She's been on Hairfinity for two years," her cousin said. I was impressed again.
Now, you all know I'm not easily impressed but they had me eating putty out of their hands the next day when I met the owner. I thought this product was straight out of China. Wrong!! If Hairfinity wasn't impressive, Tymeka Lawrence the creator and owner of HairFinity certainly is . This soft spoken chemist is a very gracious hand-full of dynamite! At fifteen she became pregnant with her daughter, but didn't let it stop her. She not only finished high school and college, but went on to receive her masters degree.
Kloe Kardashians at BlogHer14
O. K. they had my attention, and not because celebrities like the Kardashians use the product but because of the testimonies and the ingenuity of Tymeka. Since 2006 she and her husband has ran Brock Beauty from Slidell, Louisiana
Sooooo, I'm putting HairFinity to the test for a year. Now my hair does grow when I'm wearing weave and I have no intention of stopping. Love weave, it's just far easier to manage than my natural hair. Prior to HairFinity, I've been marking my hair growth every three months when I get my weave redone. That's what I intend to do with HairFinity. I started taking the hair vitamin last Monday. In full disclosure, they did give me a three months supply at BlogHer so that made it easy for me to get started. I gave one month to Tiara to get her started. I felt like I had nothing to lose, but I will be purchasing the rest for the remainder of the year.
I am particularly concerned about my edges and the part of my hair at the very top that I leave out each time I weave so that I have a natural look. Those parts of my hair tend to grow a lot less then the hair braided under the weave.

1As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3If anyone asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.'" 4They went and found a colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. As they untied it,
5some people standing there asked, "What are you doing, untying that colt?" 6They answered as Jesus had told them to, and the people let them go. 7When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
"Hosanna! "
"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" 10"Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!"
"Hosanna in the highest heaven!"
11Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
12The next day as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry. 13Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it, he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs. 14Then he said to the tree, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." And his disciples heard him say it. 15On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves,
16and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts. 17And as he taught them, he said, "Is it not written: 'My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations' ? But you have made it 'a den of robbers.' " 18The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard this and began looking for a way to kill him, for they feared him, because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.
19When evening came, Jesus and his disciples went out of the city.
20In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots.
21Peter remembered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered!" 22"Have faith in God," Jesus answered.
23"Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them. 24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." 26 27They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28"By what authority are you doing these things?" they asked. "And who gave you authority to do this?" 29Jesus replied, "I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
30John's baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!" 31They discussed it among themselves and said, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will ask, 'Then why didn't you believe him?'
32But if we say, 'Of human origin' ..." (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.) 33So they answered Jesus, "We don't know."Jesus said, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things."

The colorways on offer — White/Black-Dark Grey-Court Purple and Black/Light Wild Mango/Varsity Maize/Imperial Purple — are wholly evocative of the shoe's '90s origins, featuring a subtle vintage treatment across the midsole for a distinct weathered aesthetic. The first ever re-issue of an unfairly overlooked classic, the Nike Air Base II VNTG opens the new year on a high note for retro runner fans. Check out more looks in the gallery below.

According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the definition of reckless is "marked by lack of proper caution: careless of consequences." Synonyms include irresponsible, kamikaze, and foolhardy.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the definition of reckless is "marked by lack of proper caution: careless of consequences." Synonyms include irresponsible, kamikaze, and foolhardy.
It's now official, reckless is among the many ways to describe the actions of politicians at this year's legislative session. The State House Republicans, lead by Speaker Mike O'Neal (Rep-Hutchinson) passed the Senate's tax cut package that would leave an estimated $2.0 billion hole in the state's budget by 2017.
In case you don't remember, back in late March, the Senate had voted down this tax cut package (20 to 20), but at the behest of the Governor's office, came back later that day to pass it. This legislative maneuver enabled a conference committee to reconcile the House and Senate's tax cut proposals. On last Wednesday, in the middle of the Senate's debate on the compromise House-Senate conference committee report, (a bill that would leave smaller hole in the state's budget), Speaker O'Neal and Governor Brownback decided to push for passage the Senate's original tax cut bill passed in March, which the Speaker's conservative House Republicans allies quickly did.
Governor Brownback has now promised to sign this larger tax cut measure, effectively stabbing Senate President Steve Morris (Rep-Hugoton) in the back. This is a classic tit-for-tat reprisal. Governor Brownback and Speaker O'Neal feel that President Morris did not fulfill his promise to redraw three State Senate district boundaries to include announced conservative challengers to incumbent moderate Republican senators.
It's now time for everyone to take a chill pill. This is not a game. A $2.0 billion budgetary hole can only be filled by cutting almost every state agency and program, including highways, the state highway patrol, the KBI, state prisons, healthcare programs, and largest budget item, education. This is on top of the last four years of budget cuts.
Now, I could go on to discuss the impact of these budget cuts, but let me instead propose a compromise for salvaging this legislative session and breaking the logjam.
First, Senate President Morris will shelve his State Senate map that gerrymanders conservative challengers out of the districts of his moderate Republican allies. Although one can certainly understand his frustration with the Governor and Speaker, who are openly plotting his political demise, his Senate map is egregiously gerrymandered and thus from the standpoint of democratic representation, seriously flawed.
Second, Governor Brownback and Speaker O'Neal will use their influence to call off the conservative groups planning to pour thousands of dollars into Republican Senatorial primary contests this summer. There is nothing wrong with a fair political fight, where candidates with different ideas of the role of government present their cases to Republican primary voters. However, with hundreds of thousands of dollars waiting to be spent by the Governor's conservative allies, it turns these primary contests into unfair political battles, where the ideas from the most conservative side of this debate drowning out the right of center point of view. These are Washington D.C. political warfare tactics come to roost in Kansas. Let there be a true battle of ideas and then let the Republican primary voters decide.
Page 2 of 2 - I realize that my prescription will fall of deaf ears. The Governor and Speaker are convinced that pointing this loaded political gun at the Senate President will make him and his Senate colleagues succumb to their wishes.
However, playing this type of game with so much on the line represents a form of political gamesmanship this state has never seen.
This is also Washington, D.C. politics come to roost in Kansas. This is a political development that is bad for all of us.

All quotes tagged Consciousness
(617 quotes found)
". . . full sexual consciousness and a natural regulation of sexual life mean the end of mystical feelings of any kind, that, in other words, natural sexuality is the deadly enemy of mystical religion. The church, by making the fight over sexuality the center of its dogmas and of its influence over the masses, confirms this concept."
"The world itself is pregnant with failure, is the perfect manifestation of imperfection, of the consciousness of failure."
"Consciousness will always be present, though a particular consciousness may cease. For example, the particular tactile consciousness that is present within this human body will cease when the body comes to an end. Likewise, consciousnesses that are influenced by ignorance, by anger or by attachment, these too will cease. But the basic, ultimate, innermost subtle consciousness will always remain. It has no beginning, and it will have not end."
"Inspiration may be a form of super-consciousness, or perhaps of subconsciousness - I wouldn't know. But I am sure it is the antithesis of self-consciousness."
"Na Hanyate Hanyamane Sarire"
"Consciousness is eternal it is not vanquished with the destruction of the temporary body"

10GBASE-T Ecosystem Is Ready for Broad Adoption
10GBASE-T is the standard technology that enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet operations over
balanced twisted-pair copper, including Category 6A unshielded and shielded cabling.
10GBASE-T provides great flexibility in network design due to its 100-meter reach capability.
10GBASE-T also provides the requisite backward compatibility that allows most end users to
transparently upgrade from their 10/100/1000-Mbps networks. The ecosystem is now in
place, and adoption of 10GBASE-T is poised to surge. Many analysts are predicting rapid
growth of 10GBASE-T in the coming year. The latest data shows that the price of 10GBASE-T
technology is declining dramatically, which is helping increase product demand.
New 10GBASE-T physical layers (PHYs) allow lower-cost and lower-power high-density
designs. The latency of the 10GBASE-T PHY has also been improved and allows the building
of 10GBASE-T networks to support most of today's applications. .
10GBASE-T equipment from multiple vendors is available in the marketplace. The equipment
includes high-port-density switches, modular-chassis-based switches, network interface cards,
Small computer System Interface over IP (iSCSI) storage arrays, and cabling. 10GBASE-T LAN
on motherboard (LOM) and higher-port-density switches are expected to become available in
the near future, further aiding the adoption of 10GBASE-T. .
An immediate use for 10GBASE-T is to build the data center access-layer network that connects
servers to access switches. The data in this article shows a vast number of data center
customers need to deploy networks reaching between 18 and 46 meters. 10GBASE-T, along
with its corresponding cabling, is the most cost-effective and flexible solution in this length
range. With the zone distribution model discussed in this document, 10GBASE-T can be used
to build modular and scalable data center networks. .
Using the data and analysis in the following sections, this document concludes that the
economic and technical barriers to end-user adoption of 10GBASE-T have been overcome,
and 10GBASE-T is moving toward massive deployment. .

I had a horrible refractive laser surgery experience with this doctor, and I question whether he made the treatment decisions having his patient's - mine - best interest in mind. As an outcome of the surgery performed by Paul, my vision indoors is blurry, I see ghosting images (under indoor lighting),and I see starbursts off the streetlight reflections of car fenders. Koch Eye Associates stated that these effects are normal side effects of the treatment, and refused to diagnose lest treat them (I paid to a different practice to get my eyes scanned to find out that my corneas were not reshaped properly). To add insult to injury, only after the surgery I was told that I was a borderline candidate. But, evidently, Koch Eye Associates consider my result great because I can read the 20/20 line on the table. Hence, I am probably even included into their "success" statistics - even though I consider my surgery botched.
This practice is very friendly and helpful. The doctors have a great sense of humor and are always knowledgeable.
Our family has been going to Koch Eye for over 20 years. They have great service and wonderful doctors for all of you eye care needs. Dr. ...

TRAVERSE CITY – Our loving mother Eileen M. Stereff, 85, of Traverse City and Lake Leelanau, passed away May 2, 2014 surrounded by her loving family.
Eileen was born on February 4, 1929, in Toledo, OH to the late Stanley F. and Wilma (Spotts) Schmitz. On June 21, 1947, Eileen married the late James A. Stereff in Monroe, MI.
All throughout her life, Eileen was an excellent role model for her children and grandchildren. Eileen had a strong Catholic faith and said the rosary daily. She was a Eucharistic Minister at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Erie, MI. While at St. Joseph she served as a dedicated Altar Society President. She also represented the Altar Society from the parish to the National Council of Catholic Women. She was given the Mother of the Year Award at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Erie.
She enjoyed traveling many parts of the world. She went on many religious pilgrimages to Rome, Italy, Fatima and Lourdes. She enjoyed her religious retreats, especially to Mount Angel Abbey in Benedict, OR. She became an Oblate at Mount Angel Abbey. She won a State Award of Merit for her outstanding service in 1996 from the Catholic Daughters of America.
Throughout her life she made many beautiful quilts for her family and friends. She was also talented in knitting and crocheting.
Eileen was a kind woman and touched many lives in a very special way. Her listening skills were superior to most. Typically she would greet a person with a warm smile and something pleasant to say. Her beautiful smile and tender heart will be missed all who knew her.
Eileen is survived by her sister Barbara (Richard) Schaddeau; children, Cheryl (Dennis Marchese) Stereff, James (Mary Ann) Stereff, John (Mari) Stereff, Christopher (Virginia) Stereff, and Ann (Peter) Zenz; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and many other loving family members and friends.
Eileen was preceded in death by her husband James of 63 years in 2010; her son Darryl; her brother Richard; and her parents.
A visitation for friends and family will be held at the Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home on Tuesday, May, 6, 2014 from 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. with a rosary held at 7 p.m. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Wednesday, May 7, at 11 a.m. with a visitation beginning at 10 a.m. at St. Francis Catholic Church. The Rev. Fr. Kenneth Stachnik will officiate. Burial will take place at the Grand Traverse Memorial Gardens.
