LIVINGSTON, JANET nee KELLY
Janet Kelly was born in Scotland in 1802. Her mother, nee Kirkpatrick was related to the Empress Eugene, wife of Napoleon 111, and Ferdinand de Lesseps who built the Suez and Panama Canals.
Janet Kelly married James Livingston of "Darngarroch" Gatehouse of Fleet, Kirkcudbrightshire, Scotland who died in 1845 at the age of 43 of inflammation of the bowel, which in modern parlance, (according to her grandson, the late Dr George Home of New Plymouth) would be appendicitis, leaving Janet and a very young family of two boys and three girls.
In 1859, her son James and daughter Isabella (Home) migrated to New Zealand, arriving at Auckland on the ship British Queen. In 1864, Janet and the remainder of the family, with the exception of daughter Janet, arrived in New Zealand on the Nelson, settling at Napier. The party consisted of Janet, daughter Margaret, son Peter, nephew James McMichael and John Home from Peebleshire. John may have been a friend made on the voyage, or it may be that he came with the intention of marrying Isabella, which he did in a double ceremony in Napier, with Margaret her sister marrying Andrew Reeves of Tolaga Bay.
James McMichael and James Livingston went into a farming partnership on some land bought from the Wanganui Native Contingent at Ohawe, near Hawera and were beginning to get established when they were driven off by the Maori, along with all the other settlers, their stock and property plundered and destroyed, in June 1868. McMichael returned to farm after the wars about 1870. James Livingston married Louisa Elizabeth Caldwell in Wellington in October 1870, and returned to Hawera in 1874.
James then built "Waipapa" on the South Road at Tokaora and it was about this time that his mother, Janet came to live with them at the age of 74. Janet had a reputation for generosity but could not get accustomed to the extravagances of colonial living. At home the headlands of ploughed paddocks were carefully dug with a spade and to fail to do that in a 100 acre paddock was an inexcusable waste. "We will want yet", she said. The Battle of Trafalgar occurred when she was three years of age and she claimed to have remembered it, an extraordinary feat of memory but not impossible.
Janet Livingston died at Waipapa, Tokaora in 30 March 1895 at the age of 93 and is buried in the Hawera cemetery. Janet is the earliest European woman in this book.

McHenry girls golfers extend win streak
CARPENTERSVILLE – The McHenry girls golf team has been on a roll lately, and Madie Ogden helped continue the hot streak with a solid performance on an unfamiliar course.
The Warriors put their two-meet winning streak on the line Monday when they traveled to Bonnie Dundee to take on Dundee-Crown in a Fox Valley Conference Valley Division meet and left with another win in a 204-215 victory.
The Warriors pushed their winning streak to three behind a strong round from Ogden, who shot 13-over-par 48 to earn medalist honors.
The win continues a nice stretch for the Warriors, who have put together a solid season, one that began with doubt because of the lack of experience on the team. But as the season progressed, McHenry coach Sean Sterner began to see what his young team was capable of.
"We usually have three freshmen who are able to get up there and score for us," Sterner said. "Madie had a great round today."
Ogden, a freshman, had not played at Bonnie Dundee before and said it took awhile to get used to how the course played, but after a few holes she figured out the speed of the greens and where to hit her drives, and the rest came naturally.
"My drives were pretty straight today, but I didn't hit them as far as I normally do," Ogden said. "My wedge was working today, and I was able to finish a couple of holes pretty strong, but it was tough because the greens were pretty fast."
On No. 18, Ogden fired a long, straight drive to the middle of the fairway. After her second shot landed to the right of the green, she chipped on and two-putted for par. It was an important hole for her, and the Warriors.
McHenry held off the Chargers with four solid scores. Playing in the top group, Kailey Lindholm, a freshman, and Lok Yan Fick carded 50s, while Abby Ross turned in a 56.
Kylie Kost and Margaret Ahern each carded 49s for the Chargers, while Morgan Howe (56) and Madeline Hunsberger (61) rounded out the scoring in the loss.
D-C coach Robin Jeffers was happy with the way her team performed, especially with the two top scores. Jeffers has looked at this year as an important one for the growth of the team and is excited to see different players contributing each meet.
"It's important for a lot of these girls to be able to play at this level," Jeffers said. "I'm really happy with the scores. We're a young team, and it's good for the girls to be able to play and have this experience."
For the Warriors, the recent winning streak has given the team some confidence ahead of the Fox Valley Conference tournament Oct. 2. Sterner has noticed that the girls have been having a lot of fun while playing, which has helped relieve some pressure.
"We probably have the most fun out of any team," Sterner said. "It created a nice atmosphere for these girls to play in, and you can see it in their play."

Q: unwilling The Avari are a branch of the Elves. Also known as East Elves
When Oromë found the Elves that awakened in Cuiviénen (see: Awakening of the Elves), he summoned them to come with him to Valinor. All the Vanyar and most of the Ñoldor were persuaded, along with some of the Teleri, and followed Oromë into the west on the Great Journey. The remainder of the Ñoldor and Teleri remained suspicious, or simply refused to depart from their own lands, and spread gradually throughout the wide lands of Middle-earth. They were after known in Quenya—the language of the Eldar that eventually reached Valinor—by the name Avari, meaning "the Unwilling", because they refused the summons.
Having never come to Valinor, the Avari remained a wild folk, dwellers of forests. Little is known of them, as they do not appear in any of the tales, save some references to Avari creeping in the south of Beleriand in the First Age. Many of them probably merged with the Nandor and became known as Silvan Elves. Also, it is speculated that the Dark Elves were the first other sentient race encountered by the race of Men during their infancy. The Dark Elves probably taught them many of the basic crafts of civilization, though the craft of the Eldar surpassed that of the Avari even more than that of the Avari surpassed primitive Men.
It is odd that the Avari are seen as dishonorable compared to the Noldor. While the Noldor obeyed their master's call and the Sindar heard it but could not answer, the Avari ignored it entirely. But the reasons for this are not that the Elves are evil or lesser than their Noldorin brethren. The name Dark Elves is misleading in that sense.
These are Elves that were so in love with their world, their middle earth, that they could not bear to leave. A moral, then, that Tolkien quietly inserted into the history of Middle Earth is that sometimes true beauty is not perfection. Valinor was perfection, but the Dark Elves stood by their beloved Middle Earth, even when their brethren left for the obvious bliss of the Undying Lands
In The War of the Jewels, names of six tribes of Avari in their own languages are given, all being cognates of the Quenya word Quendi (the Speakers): Kindi, Cuind, Hwenti, Windan, Kinn-lai, Penni. They are the only certain Avarin words ever mentioned in the published Middle-earth material. It is speculated however that Dorwinion was an Avarin land, with Winion carrying the meaning of "Wine".
The Silmarillion contains a suggestion that Orcs may be descended by Avarin elves captured and corrupted by Melkor. The Barrow-wights may also be spirits of Avari.
Other versions of the legendarium
In older versions of the legendarium, the name Avari was originally that of the later Eldar, then meaning "those that departed".
In other, relatively late writings, a brief idea was that the Avari did not come from the three clans, but from two other clans, led by Nurwë and Morwë. This idea was later dropped. In the final conception, the Elves were divided into three tribes.

Brian Foote and Dave West Discuss Craftsmanship
Brian and dave discuss what it might mean to be a true craftsman and why the idea of craft has become so popular of late. Other issues discussed include the question of why craft seems to be focused almost exclusively on programming and why everyone does not aspire to be a craftsman? Programming as performance art, programs as literary artifacts, and code "habitability" round out the discussion.
Lean Organizations to Support Agile Teams
Robin Dymond gives an overview of Lean, how it can help take Agile to the 'next level' and why organizations that fail to change will not have successful Agile teams.

The respected delegation, headed by former Brazilian President Fernando Henrique Cardoso, irked Israel by initially planning to meet Hamas in Gaza. That trip has been delayed.

and Norway's former Prime Minister Gro Brundtland, front left,

Holocaust Memorial in Jerusalem, Tuesday.
The Christian Science Monitor
They're older and wiser, and with a few hundred years of (cumulative) experience under their belts, they arrived for a visit to Israel and the Palestinian territories on Tuesday in the hope that they might nudge along peace efforts.
The "Elders," as they are called, are a group of prominent former heads of state, renowned activists, and global business leaders who are trying to use their clout and cachet to affect change. Included in the delegation here are former President Jimmy Carter, South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu, former Irish President Mary Robinson, and Britain's Richard Branson, founder of the multinational Virgin Group.
The Elders describe themselves as an "independent group of eminent global leaders, brought together by Nelson Mandela, who offer their collective influence and experience to support peace building, help address major causes of human suffering and promote the shared interests of humanity," according to the group's website. But whether they will be able to lure Israelis and Palestinians to move more quickly on Middle East peace than other international interlocutors in Washington, Cairo, or Riyadh remains to be seen.
Mission: Boost peace efforts
Former Brazilian President Fernando Henrique Cardoso, who is leading the delegation, said that the Elders had arrived not on behalf of any government, but in order to boost peace efforts, which have failed to truly get off the ground despite the intensive efforts of the Obama administration. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was in London on Tuesday holding talks with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, and is to meet with US Middle East peace envoy George Mitchell on Wednesday amid increasing pressure to meet a compromise deal as envisioned by Mr. Obama: an expected Israeli settlement freeze in exchange for moves towards normalization from the Arab world.
"We are very supportive of current efforts to reopen negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians – and hope very much that this will happen. We also recognize that people have lost hope in the political process. We want to say to people here – peace is possible – and we will support their efforts in any way we can," Cardoso said before a meeting at an Israeli youth center. The group also went to Israel's Holocaust Memorial, Yad Vashem, and met with a controversial rabbi, Ovadia Yosef, spiritual leader of the Shas movement.
On Wednesday, the Elders are scheduled to meet with Israeli President Shimon Peres before going to Ramallah to meet Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad. They were also planning to visit the Kalandiya refugee camp – inside Jerusalem boundaries – and are to attend an iftar, which marks the end of each day's fast during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
Israel says Elders shouldn't visit Hamas
Israeli officials said that while they welcome the Elders, the group was making a mistake by having planned to visit the Gaza Strip and meet with Hamas officials there. A spokesman for the Elders' visit, however, said the Gaza portion of the visit had been postponed "due to security concerns" and would not elaborate. The Elders hope to reschedule a Gaza visit in the coming weeks, the group's spokesman said.
"We think these people, with their prestige and their will to push for peace, are a very respectable group who will always be welcome in Israel," says Yigal Palmor, spokesman of the Israeli foreign ministry. "However, what they seem to want to do now will not promote the chances of peace, but rather the opposite. Going to Gaza and meeting Hamas officials will be very unhelpful. Hamas is still in opposition to the international Quartet's conditions, and a move towards them will be detrimental towards peace."
A Palestinian state in two years?
The Quartet, which includes representatives from US, the UN, the EU, and Russia, declared when Hamas won parliamentary elections in January 2006 that the Islamic movement would have to meet certain conditions in order to gain international legitimacy; these requirements included foreswearing violence and recognizing Israel.
The Elders' visit has come at a time of heightened political and diplomatic intensity. In addition to Netanyahu's trip to Europe amid a dispute between Israel and Sweden, which holds the EU presidency, Mr. Fayyad, the Palestinian premier, declared Thursday that his government would create a de facto state in two years, regardless of what happens with peace negotiations.
"The Palestinian government is struggling determinedly against a hostile occupation regime … in order to establish a de facto state apparatus within the next two years," he said in a Ramallah press conference. "This can and must happen within two years."
Israeli Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz responded to Fayyad's announcement by saying that there was no place for "unilateral" measures and threats. "It is clear that a Palestinian state, no matter what its form, will not see the light of day if Israel's security concerns are not taken into account," Steinitz said in an interview on state-run Israel Radio.

Tucker Waugh holds dual roles on Army's football coaching staff, providing him multiple pictures of the talent on the roster, potential among the incoming freshmen and promise among prospects targeted on the recruiting tail.Waugh, a veteran slot backs coach in his 12th season overall spread over two stints, scans the latest depth chart with an experienced eye to believe this is the most talented backfield stable the Black Knights have assembled in his time at West Point."And the beauty of it is other than (senior) Malcolm Brown, they're all back again next year -- and some for two more years," Waugh said. "We feel like we've recruited well to that position. We feel we have a chance to be a good football team."The other role Waugh serves on head coach Rich Ellerson's staff involves the bigger picture as recruiting coordinator. His convinced Army's coaches are wading into a deeper talent pool these days on the recruiting trail.Some of that is evident through the increased number of 3 & even an occasional 4 star Rivals.com ranked prospects. The reasons range from recruiting philosophies implemented by Ellerson to Army's unique schemes that attract players to fit Army's system better than traditional offenses or defenses. But a difference that may be the most important is how high school kids view the world before and after 9/11."When people ask me about that, I tell them I am so impressed and so proud of these kids coming out of our high schools with their maturity and their desire to their serve their country," Waugh said. "We are in great shape with this next generation of young people."The West Point & Ellerson Methodology Ellerson is entering his fourth season in 2012, meaning more of his players are climbing to the top of the depth chart. His first full recruiting class is split between this season's juniors that were admitted directly to West Point and sophomores that started their careers at the USMAPS. "I've worked for a lot coaches here and all of them were great men and great coaches that did their very best to maintain the excellence and traditions of West Point," said Waugh, who also served under former head coaches Stan Brock, Bobby Ross and Todd Berry. "Coach Ellerson has been fantastic about West Point tradition, too. But he is the one that has changed our recruiting philosophy."We are recruiting to the destination of becoming an Army officer first. That's the most important thing. If a recruit has that and also has the academic credentials and is a Division I football player, we want him. Coach Ellerson has brought that to the table and it seems to be working."Another trait of Ellerson's philosophy is he won't let a recruit commit on his official visit, a strategy that would be sacrilegious at BCS powers. Oklahoma wants a recruit to act on an impulse buy before losing him to Texas.But Ellerson doesn't want to set up a recruit for buyer's remorse and thus be forced to later deal with unwanted attrition."I think if we start with the interest level, the guys that really want to be here will be here," Waugh said.Waugh, who also coached two years at Stanford in 2005 and 2006 before returning to West Point, said it didn't take long to accept Ellerson's philosophy."I think that's a great way to do business," he said. "I think that stems not from him being a coach or from caring about West Point -- it stems from him being an excellent father. What he tells recruits when he meets with them, is if he was the young man's parent, he would want them to take the time to travel home, digest all the information and then make their best decision."I think that comes from him being a good dad. His son Drew is attending West Point (in 2012 after a year at the USMAPS). If these guys choose to come to West Point, they are making a decision to be part of our family for four or five years. He wants them to make the right decision."Another characteristic Ellerson seeks among his recruits is what the coaches call "flexibility." He wants them to have the ability -- and willingness -- to switch positions once they arrive."One of these things we look for is for a young man who is open to being a better player at another position," Waugh said. "He might come here as a running back and end up an X wide receiver or a field corner. Coach does a great job with that. He's very honest with them so they are comfortable with how they are going to be used. We feel like we've done a good job of getting guys with position flexibility."With Army starting spring football in February and finishing in March, Army's staff has had the time to focus on recruiting between April and the start of fall camp. Army has extended several Class of 2013 offer already and Waugh feels the they are off to a good start with their recruiting pitches."We are targeting the right people to come to West Point for the right reasons," Waugh said. "There are a lot of good reasons that a young man would want to come to West Point. The elite academics are as good as it gets anywhere in the nation and we play highest level of football with wonderful facilities and great tradition."All of those things are fine, and a lot of people would want to come here for those reasons. But we go one step further and say none of that makes sense unless you're interested in the destination of becoming an Army officer. If that makes sense, the rest is glorious."Keep right here on GoBlackKnights.com for Part II with Tucker Waugh. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

text: Future museums report: 3D-printed artefacts and environmental havens Culture 06 November 13 by Liat Clark Squidsoup.org Cardiff Museums of the future may be filled with 3D-printed replicas, green walls and sensory surfaces, according to a report by Arup. Arup, the London engineering firm behind Japan's planned Giant Observation Wheel, the world's first algae-powered building and Thomas Heatherwick's Garden Bridge, compiled the report "Museums in the Digital Age" with help from Central Saint Martins' students on the MA Practice for Narrative Environments course."The students explored a number of trends before developing some future scenarios for some real world case-studies," Josef Hargrave, Arup's senior analyst for foresight, research and innovation, told Wired.co.uk. Hargrave's team developed these ideas for 2040 museums, working with internal experts that have advised on some of the aforementioned future-forward projects. A number of things will drive the changes, including decreased funding, limited access to artefacts in new cities, an ageing population, cultural shifts, the increasing digitisation of media and the rise of new technologies. "As people become more accustomed to the freedoms and empowerment of digital technologies, museums will be encouraged to invent new ways to tell stories, engaging visitors themselves in the creation and curation of content," write the authors. In the advent of the maker movement, this could mean visitors 3D printing parts of the artefacts to take home with them. Museums themselves could replicate damaged or lost items to a finer degree than ever before. This may lead to "less emphasis [being] placed on the display of originals," add the authors.Hargrave emphasised to Wired.co.uk that this would not mean originals become defunct -- there will just be a necessary exploration of new approaches to display. "Historically museums would start with a collection, followed by a building to house them. What we are seeing now in places like China is a rapid expansion and growth of museum spaces that is not fully matched by the availability of collections. This vacuum of content will lead to new approaches in terms of what is displayed and by whom. We can imagine anything from high-level copies, to 3D printed artefacts to exhibits brought in by the visitors themselves."Visitor participation will be a huge part of the museum of the future, with an abundance of content that can be adapted "to the preferences of users in real time", most likely through adaptable digital interfaces driven by big data that caputures visitor behaviour and preferences. Likewise, museums will have to start thinking more about what the audience wants to see. With limited resources and funding, personalisation could be more effective. "Will museum-goers be interested in seeing original artefacts from a forgotten war?" asks the report. To actually survive the decrease in funding, museums will have to look to other avenues such as installing high-end restaurants on-site, to events tailored to particular groups. "The utilisation of the collection will also change, in particular for established museums," adds Hargrave. "More and more will start renting out parts of their collections to maximise the revenue from it, while at the same time creating global brands and outposts." It will also mean creating museums in unusual and unexpected places.A couple institutions already doing this include the Nomadic Museum and the Alter Bahnhof Video Walk. The former is a temporary structure specifically designed to house one exhibit, the Ashes and Snow photography and film exhibition. It was originally made from shipping containers but has morphed as it has gone from New York, to California, to Tokyo and Mexico City. The Video Walk, on the other hand, takes place at an old train station in Germany. With a borrowed iPod and headphones, users can see and hear another reality being played out in the same location. These kinds of temporary or moveable museums will mean exhibits reach a wider audience. Immersive experiences like this will be important, with technology being used to enhance physical experiences."Museums will be challenged to create experiences which will be considered novel and valuable, social rather than anti-social," says the report. "They will cultivate experiences that extend beyond the walls of the museum, both virtually and in terms of new types of physical spaces."This will be facilitated by the use of data-collecting sensors that monitor and analyse visitor behaviour which, "coupled with automation will provide a way for museums to deliver highly compelling, individually-curated experiences, where users, exhibits, light, sound and space interact to create a seamless environment." Taking these ideas, the authors have reimagined a few of London's most famous landmarks.In 2040 Kew Gardens is one of the few places where isolated city dwellers can come together for a shared experience which, facilitated by big data and self-monitoring systems, become curated for individual experiences. It's described as a temporary retreat where biodiversity is preserved: plant walls regulate environmental toxins, personal alerts are sent to visitors about their carbon emissions at home. CSM Students - Wallace Collection As the world becomes a smaller place and cultural divides become blurry, the V&A will up its income by planning journeys where artefacts are returned to their place of origin. The team imagines a train journey to the Middle East, where artefacts are visible on the ride. CSM Students - Wallace Collection In a future where digital is everywhere, overtaking the city's physical infrastructure, exhibits will be everywhere with immersive augmented reality experiences transforming traditional rooms at the Wallace Collection. While in a future of mass urbanisation, the Freud Museum will become a mental retreat with listening pods and a rare break from digital, with sensory walls. A lot of these scenarios are fairly dystopian, and are necessitated by a lack of green spaces, a good environment and the scarcity of energy resources. But it also demonstrates the different ways in which technology can create a more social and shared experience, possibly moving away from the ubiquitous screens. Latest on wired.co.uk

Rocklin tops Roseville 12-8 in baseball
By: Russ Edmondson The Placer Herald
Rocklin High junior pitcher Blake Fassler was in control out of the bullpen on Thursday as the Thunder topped the visiting Tigers 12-8. Roseville led 7-4 with a runner on second base in the top of the fourth inning when Fassler came on in relief for Kyle Garvella. Fassler let that run score (not charged to him) on a triple by Anthony Roberts but he gave up just one hit the rest of the way. His final line was 3 and 1/3 innings pitched, two hits, no walks and four strikeouts. Fassler retired the side in order in the fifth and seventh inning. "He's been great the whole time – he could definitely (be a starting pitcher)," Rocklin coach Roc Murray said. "I'm feeling really good – just trying not to think and let (the ball) go. (My job is to) come in and shut them down," Fassler said. "I feel like we are going to be on a roll . . . We definitely have a target on our backs but Granite Bay is 7-0." Rocklin, which has won the Sierra Foothill League the last two years, is 3-1 in league and its only loss was to Del Oro in the SFL opener. Roseville dropped to 0-3 with the loss. Roseville jumped ahead 1-0 in the first inning on a solo homer by Andrew Beals but Rocklin scored three runs in the last of the second inning to go up 3-1. A two-run single by Kevin Spaulding highlighted the rally. The Tigers responded with three runs in the top of the third inning as Roberts hit a two-run homer and Beals drove in a run on a groundout. Rocklin's Cameron Gordon tied the game at four in the last of the third inning with a run-scoring single. The back-and-forth action continued in the fourth inning as both teams scored four runs. Michael Moreno hit a two-run double to highlight the Roseville rally while Rocklin's big blow was a two-run single by Gordon. Roseville was done scoring for the day after the fourth inning while Rocklin scored three times in the fifth inning and once in the sixth. Rocklin catcher Wes Marker had a two-run single in the fifth inning while Jason Hampton drove in a run with a single in the fifth and the sixth inning. "We didn't cave in the third inning (after Roseville scored three runs) – we battled and chipped away and got a run," Murray said. Rocklin senior outfielder Pat Stover, the SFL MVP from last season, played in the last two league games but he sat this one out. He is also a starter on the basketball team that will play in the Division II state finals at Arco Arena Friday night. "Just resting for tomorrow," said Stover, who watched the game from the stands.

" 'Tarantulas can now be sold inside the city limits, according to a 4-0 Council vote Tuesday night.'
"Yassuh … I love my adopted parish!"
Radio days
Tales of old radio stations triggered an "American Graffiti" moment for Phil Ragusa:
"In my high school days ('50-'54) at Catholic High, Roger Davison (Ravin' Dave) of WIBR worked in the control room by the tracks on Choctaw.
"We went in the 'hut,' wrote record requests and held them to the glass. He generally complied."
Stories of WLCS remind Robert Porter, of Zachary, that he still has a WLCS cap he won by answering a trivia question.
And Fiddling Doc Chaney still has a WLCS "91'er Club" card, and wonders if it's good for any promotions on the new sports talk station that now occupies the 910 AM spot.
(Check with Buddy Songy, Doc, and maybe you can work out a deal for Manda sausage.)
Love and oysters
Gordon Barney adds to nostalgia items about the late lamented Bernard's Chicken Loaf House on North Boulevard:
"Bernard's made the best oyster loaf in the world — on a whole loaf of bread soaked in butter, loaded with fried oysters with dill pickles and cocktail sauce, all for (I think) less than $5.
"Ann and I were newly married and didn't have much money, but after watching LSU play football we would splurge and stop by Bernard's and get an oyster loaf to take back to our garage apartment.
"We'd climb in bed and watch TV and eat the loaf.
"Ann would always say that she didn't want many oysters, but she liked the bread. So she'd let me eat the oysters.
"She has been this way all of our life together, and that is one of the reasons that I love her so after being married to her for almost 55 years."
Happy returns
Chery Aliers, of Prairieville, thanks two Entergy employees who recovered the pendant she dropped down a grate on Poydras Street in New Orleans.

Colorful comment
John Morgan says, "Astronomers have photographed a planet in orbit around a distant star, and are studying the light coming from it.

DuroMax Exellent First Use
Comment:The instructions for operations and assembly were good but the best part was that it started with the very first pull!
It also continued to restart with the very first pull after each refueling. We had the unit in 24 hr operation for four days without any problems. We had lost power in the recent storms. I used the manual to approximate the load on the unit at about 50%. At this load one tank of gas lasted about 12 hours.
One recommendation to improve the unit would be a load meter to take the guess work out of determining how much load you can add at any one time.Alan - Process Control Engineer

WOW . . . This is a great generator.
Comment:Started on first pull of the cord! I expected very little for the money; however, it runs my 37 foot Montana fifth wheel everywhere we travel. So far, so good.
The issue of adding oil is mute because I found a great funnel that makes life easy. Loudness? No complaints.
Everything is as advertised. If I get a year out of this, Ill be overjoyed. More than a year? Its a steal.
Remember to buy the 30-50 watt adapter. It is sold separately.Old Dad

I'm so glad my children aren't in elementary school anymore. Otherwise I'd be spending the whole Labor Day weekend fretting over next Tuesday instead of cleaning the ashes out of my ears.
Tuesday, as you all know, unless you've been preoccupied with your house burning down or ominous mushroom clouds like we have here in LA, is when President Obama is set to give his "socialist" talk to the nation's schoolchildren.
Mind you, no one has actually seen a copy of the president's speech. But that hasn't stopped right-wing crazies and Republicans from insisting that Obama is going to brainwash our kids with his radical ideas about health care, banking, and taxes. All in the span of a few propaganda-packed minutes.
Some parents have demanded that their children be excused from hearing the president speak. I'm taking a wild guess, but I'm pretty sure that African-American parents won't be joining them.
You'd think Obama was showing kids on live TV how to slip a condom on a banana.
Clearly, none of these people has ever never taught a group of squirming six-year-olds like I have, much less a class of smart-mouthy fifth graders or opinionated 16-year-olds in AP U.S. History or they wouldn't be so alarmed. I know this comes as a shock, but students don't hang on every adult word. They're also curiously able to think for themselves.
But tell that to Jim Greer. Greer, the chairman of Florida's Republican Party, has been the most vocal, if not the most literate, opponent of Obama's speech. (An aside here: Notice how it is always Florida and Texas that cause such a political ruckus?)
If you didn't have the pleasure of seeing the Senate hopeful on the news, here's what Greer said in a press release:
As the father of four children, I am absolutely appalled that taxpayer dollars are being used to spread President Obama's socialist ideology. President Obama has turned to the American's [sic] children to spread his liberal lies, indoctrinating American's [sic] youngest children before they have a chance to decide for themselves.
Asked repeatedly where he got the notion that Obama was going to talk about health care and other policy matters when he hadn't actually read the text, Greer strangely couldn't answer.
But strangely Education Secretary Arne Duncan could. And here's what he said about the content of Obama's speech in an interview with AP:
What's so fun about working for the president is this is so personal for him. He did not grow up with a silver spoon in his mouth. His father wasn't around much....And here he is, the president of our country, the leader of the free world, because he received a great education and worked so hard. He's challenging all of us, but he is absolutely going to challenge students and parents to take their education seriously, to really have personal responsibility.
Now critics are saying that it's not the phantom speech that has gotten them riled up. But the lesson plans the Department of Education sent to teachers suggesting, among other ideas, that younger students write Obama letters offering how they can "help" the president. Or that high schoolers answer such cult-of-personality questions as, "What is President Obama inspiring you to do?"
That's it. I am never sending the teenagers to school again.
Since the Education Department's lesson plans caused such a fuss, I'd like to propose my own essay questions that teachers can use in conjunction with the president's speech. (Caution: They are not organized according to grade level.)
1) Who is Jim Greer? And why doesn't he know basic rules of grammar?
2) What is a socialist? (Parents must answer this question, too.) Name a current leader of a socialist country or one from the 20th century. (Hint: It is not an American president.)
3) Why do you think Obama gave this speech to the nation's students? What was he trying to say?
4) What did you think about it? Did you like it? Why? Why not?
5) Write your own speech as if you were addressing the nation's students. (Hint: Avoid all socialist rhetoric or points will be deducted.)
6) Why do you think some students' parents (not yours, of course) wouldn't let their children watch the president speak? Do you believe they had that right? Why or why not?
7) What is the high-school dropout rate in Texas and Florida?

Newly pregnant, when to see a doctor?
Hello! I am newly pregnant for the first time and just wanting a little advice from some experienced mommies. I have done some research online and noticed the answers vary a bit. I just got a positive home pregnancy test this week. I conceived 3 weeks ago, but calculating from my last period I am considered 5 weeks. I am out of town right now and therefore out of my health insurance network. I won't be able to see a doctor until I return home in 2 weeks. Is this an OK time frame? My understanding is that I will go to my PCP to verify my pregnancy and then be referred to an OB/GYN. How many weeks along were you for your first OB visit?

Unless you have any known health issues that may affect the pregnancy doctors usually recommend waiting until your 8 weeks along because that is the approximate time you can view the heart tones with a vaginal ultrasound! good luck and congrats!posted 04/03/2011 by Litl12084
I was driving around and I had been thinking I might be pregnant. I stopped by a local clinic Planned Parenthood and took a blood and urine test. Even though I have health insurance I got mixed tests on my pregnancy tests. After the pregnancy was confirmed I called and set up an appt. I visited my doctor at 7 weeks. Although it varies with your health insurance and doctor. Some doctors will not see you until you have missed 2 cycles. I would call you doctor to see what restrictions they have for your first visit. Hope that helps.posted 04/02/2011 by elise20031

Opening remarks begin in shaken baby retrial
By: Penne Usher and Jenna Nielsen, Journal Staff Writers
Opening statements began Thursday in an Auburn courtroom in the second trial of Veronica Martinez Salcedo, who stands accused of shaking 15-month-old Hannah Rose Juceam to death. The prosecution contends that Hannah died from traumatic brain injuries consistent with shaken baby syndrome and the defense that Hannah's brain was still active when her parents, Scott and Lorena Juceam, decided to take her off life-support. The first trial for Veronica Salcedo, 38, ended Oct. 31 with jurors deadlocked 10 to 2 in favor of guilt. Prosecutor Karin Bjork told the seven women and five men of the jury Thursday that Salcedo shook Hannah so violently May 11, 2006 that it killed her. Hannah, who reportedly had a cold at the time, became fussy when her mother left to run an errand around 2 p.m. Salcedo reportedly fed and prepared a bottle in an attempt to stop Hannah's crying. "She picked her up and shook her and shook her and shook her – hard," Bjork told the jurors. "And Hannah stopped crying. Ms. Salcedo quieted Hannah forever." Bjork said jurors would hear testimony from a doctor at Sutter Memorial Hospital who is an expert on child abuse cases will testify that the injuries were caused by shaken baby syndrome. Defense attorney Mary Beth Acton told jurors that parents Scott and Lorena Juceams' decision to take Hannah off life-support days after she was admitted to the hospital was ultimately responsible for Hannah's death and that the 15-month-old's brain was still active. "After she had brain flow, he mother and father chose to take her oxygen away," Acton said. "She wasn't brain dead — she was alive. She had blood going to the brain." Acton told jurors that Salcedo went into the kitchen to feed Hannah and her twin brother Ben and put Hannah on the floor. "Veronica Salcedo heard a thud," Acton said. "She picked Hannah up and saw her eyes roll back. She thought she was holding her breath." Acton said Salcedo picked Hannah up and began shaking her, trying to get a response. "Hannah was not an infant," Acton said. "She was 22-to-24 pounds according to medical records." Acton said Hannah did not have any bruises or marks on her, which would be consistent with shaken baby syndrome. "It could be that she had a virus, it could have been a stroke," Acton said. Acton also said doctors gave Hannah drugs to induce sedation and calm her down in order to insert a breathing tube down her throat. "The coma that she was in was induced by the hospital," Acton said. "She was starting to move, come out of those paralytics. She wasn't dead." Roseville Police investigators said Salcedo was baby-sitting for the Juceam family on May 11, 2006. Scott Juceam was at work and Lorena Juceam left her Roseville home to run an errand at an area bank. She received a phone call from Salcedo just 15 minutes after she left her home. Salcedo said there was something wrong with Hannah. Lorena Juceam then called 911 and arrived at home to find paramedics attending to her infant daughter. Hannah was taken off life-support May 13, 2006. Salcedo has pleaded not guilty to the charge of murder. According to reports, Salcedo told law enforcement officers that she shook Hannah to get her to stop crying. The prosecution and defense disagree whether the shaking was violent and if there was enough shaking to cause fatal injuries. Salcedo, who prosecutors alledge is in the country illegally, has two children who are being cared for by family members. Acton said Salcedo entered the U.S. legally after her husband was murdered in Mexico. Salcedo remains in custody in the Placer County Jail on $1 million bail. If found guilty she faces 25-years-to-life in prison. The Journal's Penne Usher can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Tennessee State University, known as The Big Blue to its fans, won its 12th Black College Football National Championship in the 2013 season. They can now celebrate for another reason – the school was the only HBCU to have its athletes selected in this year's NFL Draft.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers chose four-year starting guard Kadeem Edwards in the fifth round as the 143rd player picked overall. The St. Louis Rams chose center Demetrius Rhaney in the seventh round, the 250th player taken.
"This is huge for the university,'' Tennessee State coach Rod Reed said. "It's not often that an HBCU gets this kind of notoriety. I can't remember the last time an HBCU had two players drafted – not only an HBCU but an FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) school. This is a great day for Black college football and around Tennessee State.''
Two other Big Blue mainstays, tight end A. C. Leonard and free safety David Van Dyke, signed free agent deals within hours of the draft end on Saturday.
Edwards, 6-4, 313 pounds, and Rhaney, 6-2, 301 pounds, anchored the offensive line for Tennessee State as the Big Blue advanced to the second round of the FCS playoffs for the first time since 1999.
Edwards was a 2013 All-American and the Tigers' Offensive MVP. In addition to being named All-OVC for the third consecutive year.
Edwards played in the Senior Bowl All-Star Game in January and more than held his own against athletes from more high profile schools. His draft stock rose when he impressed scouts and personnel executives at the NFL Draft Combine in February.
He ran a 5.25-second 40-yard dash and did 26 reps at 225 pounds in the bench press. His 34 ? inch arms were the longest at the combine and make him well-suited for pass blocking.
"He's a great run blocker,'' Reed said. "But he's also a good all-round lineman.''
Edwards excelled in the classroom as well as on the football field. He graduated cum laude in December with a degree in Health and Human Performance after struggling initially to become academically eligible. He was a part-time student and held down a job his first year at Tennessee State.
Rhaney played two seasons at Ellsworth Community College in Iowa, one at tackle and one at guard. He played guard his first year at Tennessee State before moving to center.
His greatest assets are his quickness and agility, which he showcased with an outstanding performance during Tennessee State's Pro Day. He was clocked at 4.96 and 4.97 in the 40, had a 29-inch vertical jump and a nine-foot broad jump and 24 lifts of 225 pounds on the bench press.
Center is a weak spot on the Rams' offensive line and projections are Rhaney could eventually become a starter though he is likely to spend the 2014 season on the practice squad.
The Rams' current center, Scott Wells, is 33 and has missed 13 games the past two seasons due to injuries. The two draftees from Tennessee State matches the total number of athletes from HBCUs picked in 2013 and continues a recent trend that has seen NFL teams shy away from Black colleges.
Arkansas-Pine Bluff offensive lineman Terron Armstead and Florida A&M linebacker Brandon Hepburn were the only athletes from HBCUs chosen in the 2013 draft.South Carolina State safety Christian Thompson was the lone draftee from an HBCU in 2012.
"I am concerned as one who follows Black college football,'' said American Urban Radio Network Sports Director Ty Miller. "I wonder if the talent level is down or are [NFL scouts] just not looking at the black colleges. I'm not sure what signal that sends. But I do believe there is talent at HBCUs.''
Tennessee State's showing in the 2014 draft pales in comparison to the Big Blue's presence in the lottery during its glory years of the '60's and '70s when "Big John'' Merritt was coach.
During that time, if only two Tigers were drafted, it was considered a bad year. Consider: In 1974, six Tennessee State players were drafted – five in the first two rounds.
Defensive end Ed "Too Tall'' Jones was the No. 1 overall pick by the Dallas Cowboys and teammate Waymond Bryant was picked No. 4 overall by the Chicago Bears.
The 2014 draft is an indication of the progress that the Tigers' have made in recruiting in Reed's four seasons as coach. Edwards and Rhaney are the first Tiger draftees since 2009, and their first two Tigers chosen in the same draft since 2000.

Custom Tank
Does anyone know how much a cust aquarium costs and is it per gallon or do they need to see the plans?
Many things come in to account.
size, material, shape, special modifications.
What are you thinking of doing? Most custom places will have you give them specifics and quote you a price.
I have 2 tanks that i have plans for. These will be display tanks for a small business.
Acrilic tanks with a stand. resesed 6 inches into to the stand is where the tank sits. A canopy with the tank resesed 3 inches into it. The tank will be 8x4x3 and aproximately ( pardon my spelling) 718 gallons with air hoses and filtration hoses drilled into the bottom. with a rock wall in the middle of the tank (designed so that you can walk around it so you can see from all side) 2 ft long and 6 inches wide.
Built the same way but 5x2.5x3 280 gallons.
i would think something like that stand and all ur looking around 1-2 grand, custom stuff like that does not come cheap
I know i am trying to find out the price so i can see if it is feesable as i dont want to build it and have it look horible.
To be honest, you might want to build your own stand/canopy and just have the tank custom drilled in the center (I'm assuming you want the rock formation to cover up all drilled holes). To make your own "rock" center piece what you could do is use great stuff expanding foam and build it yourself. Just line up the intake tubing and output with tubing and put the expanding foam over or build a box in the center and surround that with the expanding foam. To make caves and holes just use a razor blade after the foam has cured and cut them out yourself. Then you could cover the foam with black silicone/co-co fiber to make it look attractive. If you wanted live plants you could plant all over the rock formation. As far as building your own stand/canopy, it really isn't very hard. Just build a frame for it out of 2x4's and put paneling/doors/molding or whatever you want. That would be the best/cost efficient way, though it is a bit of work on your part.
Ballpark 8k for full set up. Their are a lot of places to cut corners but you picked one of the most cost effective gallon per dollar ratio.
Thanks i got 1 more plan but it is for a 1200 gallon tank and will be much 2 expensive ( but perfect for almost any aquarium fish on the market 10x4x4 built the same way as the other 2)
A 10x4x4 would be about double the price of a 8x4x3
i thought that would be true and as it is a dispaly tank for a small buisness i think we might go with either a 240 gallon standerd and maybe customize it myself. maybe as zapher said but instead make it acroos seperating the tank except make space at top it would help if this was a cichlid tank with turf wars.
