Chinese PC giant Lenovo just inked a deal to buy the Motorola Mobility smartphone unit from Google -- and investors pummeled its stock. But Lenovo may surprise pessimists.

Entertainment Magazine: California: Timeshare Vacations
California still has some timeshare presentations
While most time share companies have shifted their focus from selling ownerships to providing discount stays, there are a few options open.
Timeshare promotions usually involve an hour or more requirement to listen to a timeshare presentation in order to get a reduced rate on a destination site. That model has dried up with the economy.
Instead, former timeshare promos are now big discounts on "vacation clubs" or "vacation rentals."
Popular California destinations
Marriot Vacation Club is an other alternative with vacation packages that have flexible options for bookings and locations. One of the most popular California timeshare programs is offered by Marriott Vacation Club. You can purchase Marriott Timeshare week(s) within a seasonal time period instead of being locked into the same week, year after year. Find out more about Marriott Vacation Club. Discover a world of unforgettable vacations.
Vacation Home Rentals is a leading brand in the exploding online vacation rental industry. It provides a meeting ground for a broad spectrum of vacation rental property owners and an active stream of travelers interested in renting those properties. Vacation Rentals By Owner California Vacation Rentals.
VRBO.com is the nation's leading vacation rental by owner network - join today for 12 months at just $279!
Timeshare promotions still popular
By Wendy Croix
California is still the second-hottest timeshare market in the U.S., exceeded only by Florida.
Two of the most popular Southwest timeshares are in Lake Tahoe, up north, and Palm Springs, in the south.
Palm Springs, CA Attractions
Whether it's golf and fine dining, eco-touring at Joshua Tree, or hot air ballooning, Palm Springs offers luxury vacation pleasures in a stunning desert oasis setting.
Though Palm Springs provides both leisure and city amenities, the area timeshares are selling at below the national average. In particular, resales offer bargains to savvy timeshare buyers.
California Timeshare Promotions and Vacation Packages
Savvy timeshare travelers learn the secret of getting the promotion goodies: they ask!
Sellers generally have more free tickets and discounts than they know what to do with, so after the promotional talks, buyers have a prime opportunity to ask the seller to sweeten the Lake Tahoe or Palm Springs vacation package experience with some additional meals and memories.
Whether you're looking for desert or alpine beauty to be part of your vacation, be sure to look at what California has to offer.

Oh dear, possible problem. There were a number of .emlx files that were emails. I'd already moved to the trash and deleted. Is that what you mean by email that arn't attachments?
Yes. Moving email will certainly corrupt the mailbox index which could cause you to lose additional email. To fix that simply rebuild each mailbox that you moved mail from.
More importantly, if you have IMAP accounts or POP accounts where you leave messages on the server, those emails will be downloaded to your Mac again the next time you check for new mail.
The correct way to go handle possibly infected emails is to choose "Reveal In Finder" for each one. When the window opens, double-click on the file to open it in your email client. If you decide you don't need to keep the message, use the email application's delete function to get rid of it on both your Computer and the server (gmail is a special case in that the only way to permanently delete an email is by using webmail in your browser, so you will have to hunt for it there). If you decide the message is something you need to keep then make note of the file number so you can ignore it the next time you scan.

The Canadian and U.S. elections are taking place simultaneously, and the whole world is watching - theirs.
America's election is a titanic struggle that could determine the world's future, from simmering Pakistan and the Middle-East to ravaged, war-torn Wall Street.
Meanwhile our election is a titanic snooze that may determine the head of the Bank of Canada.
Canada's election has only lasted five weeks, yet most Canadians are already bored to death. The U.S. election feels like it's lasted five years, yet it's still incredibly exciting. How else do the two elections differ? Here is a User's Guide to the differences between the U.S. election and ours: THE CANDIDATES: The U.S. campaign pits two fascinating national leaders against each other in dramatic one-on-one gladiatorial combat. One would be the first black president ever elected in America; the other would be a stirring war-hero president - and the 44th white guy in office.
The U.S winner will be the most powerful man in the world, with his finger on the nuclear button. The Canadian winner will be the most powerful man in Ottawa, with his finger on the Rideau Street crosswalk button - and another on the phone trying to reach Washington.
The U.S. race even has a major female candidate - Sarah Palin, a one-woman Entertainment Channel, whose antics have enlivened America's race and terrified the world. As happens, Canadians are experts on Palin and know more about her than even Americans.
That's because we share a border with Alaska - so we can see her from here.
EMOTIONS: Everyone in the United States is voting for their favourite choice. Half of Americans believe the eloquent, elegant Obama is a symbol of hope and change. The other half of the country believes the crusty, heroic McCain can save the American way of life.
But everyone in Canada is voting against someone. Two-thirds of our country doesn't want Stephen Harper as leader and is voting for the Anyone But Him Party. I know several die-hard anglo federalists who have decided to vote for the Bloc and some staunch francophone separatists who are gritting their teeth and voting for Stéphane Dion.
Even many Harper supporters can't take Harper - but they can't stand anyone else.
Likewise, many Liberal voters can't stomach Dion - they're just out to stop Harper. Even many top Liberal organizers and MPs are secretly praying Dion loses this election. They'd like a Conservative minority government, so they can dump Dion and start over.
Like us, Americans are now emotionally consumed by the battered economy, but they express themselves in an utterly foreign economic language from Canadians. They talk about Freddy and Fannie, Bear Stearns, sub-prime mortgages, 401Ks, earmarks, pockmarks and aardvarks.
We Canadians just worry about our RRLPs - Registered Retirement Losing Plans.
THE MEDIA: We have the CBC, which always tries to stay calm and not panic anyone. They have CNN, which always tries to panic everyone so they'll stay tuned.
American coverage focuses less on the issues and more on the candidates' personal lives - their wives, children, family, pets, mistresses, pastors, neighbours, acquaintances and anyone else they've ever met at a school board meeting.
In Canada we don't discuss private matters, we stick to the issues - like carbon credits, energy policy, listeria hysteria and other important stuff that put us all to sleep. The U.S. media made a big fuss about McCain owning seven houses - but few Canadians know if Harper ever owned a house apart from 24 Sussex. Did he have a ranch or a basement flat or just camp out in the tar sands? If Canada's election was covered by CNN, they'd have reporters secretly following Dion to see whether he picks up his dog's poop - and going through Elizabeth May's trash to see if she composts. Then again, if CBC was in charge of U.S. election coverage, we still wouldn't know Michelle Obama's name.
THE DECISION: If the vote is too close to call, the new U.S president will be chosen by the most aggressive party - the one that's ready to fight over every last hanging chad. If Canada's race is close, we'll solve it peacefully by simply turning the decision of who is prime minister over over to the queen.
The key to the U.S. election now is "independent" voters in several states who will decide whether to vote red or blue. The key to our election now is "strategic" voters - who follow each daily poll and change their mind every half hour, while agonizing: "I was going to vote for Harper because I can't stand Dion's voice, but then Harper attacked the arts so I switched to the Liberals, but now they're rising too fast so I'm switching to Green - but that could split the vote in my riding and help give Harper a majority, so I've just decided that I'm going to vote with my heart for the only candidate I really love.
"I'm going to write-in Obama." firstname.lastname@example.com

After winning a year and a half battle against breast cancer, Shelly Buckler was told some news that reintroduced her to an all-too-familiar rival.
Life with cancer has often been described as an emotional and physical battle to simply stay alive.
Sometimes the fight against cancer is successful, other times the will to fight is not enough to carry the struggling, worn-out body along to the finish line.
For Buckler, the battle was over with a check-mark in her favor, but the war was far from over.
Harrison County residents seeking employment opportunities now have more computer access, training and job workshops at the new Public Library Workforce Center (PLWC).
The Cynthiana-Harrison County Public Library is one of 45 public libraries in the state that will have a PLWC.
The centers house computers and software that will be used to provide training in a formal workshop setting to Kentucky residents seeking employment opportunities.
Police have arrested a suspect in three arson cases following a confession from the man
Arson investigators were ready to go searching for the suspect believed to be the cause of the June 18 and 19 fires when he came knocking on their door.
"At approximately 7:30 p.m. Wednesday night, our suspect came knocking on the door of the fire house saying that he wanted to confess what he had done," said Cynthiana Fire Chief Jay Sanders.
Kentucky State Police have opened an arson investigation after three homes were set on fire last weekend.
Saturday, June 18, a call was made to dispatch around 6:25 p.m. for a possible fire at 227 Pike St.
Firefighters rushed to the scene on West Pike and extinguished the fire before it spread to any other houses.
The owner of the building, Richard Hutchison, had recently renovated the home and was in the process of renting the house to a potential tenant.
Police are searching for a man whom they believe cut his brother and woman at her Shawnee Drive home.
About 2:10 a.m. Wednesday, June 15, Cynthiana Police were called to Shabrea Commodore's townhouse apartment on Shawnee Drive, which is located in public housing just off Riggs Avenue.
Commodore had been cut with a large butcher knife on her left arm.
According to Cpl. Walter Tapp, alcohol was the major contributing factor to the domestic disturbance.
A suspected drunk driver ended up with nine charges placed against him.
Cynthiana Ptl. Michael Kiskaden was dispatched to U.S. 27 South after a motorist notified police that he was following a vehicle that was all over the road.
Kiskaden, who was on River Road at the time the call came in before midnight on Sunday, was able to pull in behind the suspect's vehicle between River Road and the John Hunt Morgan bridge.
Kiskaden turned on his police emergency lights because of the suspect's erratic driving.
A 17-year-old Harrison county girl is in deep trouble after she allegedly concocted a story that tied up three Harrison county Sheriff's Deputies for five and one half hours last Monday, June 13.
The teen allegedly took the family's vehicle from their northwestern Harrison County home, along with her 9-year-old sister whom she was baby-sitting.
She abandoned the car after she wrecked it and was able to get back to their home with her sister.

The match got off to a brutal start for Manchester City as Vincent Kompany lasted just nine minutes before going down with a thigh injury. The Belgian center-back has been plagued by muscle injuries all season and Manuel Pellegrini was forced to make an early substitution, bringing in Eliaquim Mangala to replace his captain.
Real Madrid would find the tie's first goal in the 20th minute, although it would come off the foot of City's Fernando. Gareth Bale streaked in from the right wing and tried to play a cross into the box, but his attempt deflected off of a sliding Fernando and sailed into the top corner at the far post. Originally given to Bale, it was later ruled an own goal.
Real thought they had a second when Pepe put the ball in the back of the net off a scramble in the box, but the defender was correctly ruled offside as City remained just a goal behind.
It took nearly the entire first half, but City finally created a chance in the 44th minute. Fernandinho found himself upfield and took a pass from Kevin De Bruyne towards the box. The Brazilian cut onto his right foot and fired a shot on goal, but it hit the outside of the post and deflected wide.
[ RELATED: Has Pep Guardiola's tenure at Bayern Munich been a failure? ]
After the break it was more Madrid pressure, with Joe Hart making a massive stop on Luka Modric just minutes into the second half to keep City alive. Gareth Bale also saw a header rattle off the crossbar as Real continued to control the match.
Just one goal would put City through to the final, but Pellegrini's side never threatened Keylor Navas, registering just one shot on target. In City's biggest match in recent history, they were simply not good enough as they must now focus on a top-four finish in England.Follow @KyleLynchFC
Vincent Kompany forced off just nine minutes into Man City's UCL semi
Vincent Kompany managed just nine minutes in Manchester City's Champions League semifinal against Real Madrid before going down with a thigh injury.
The City captain pulled up around midfield and immediately went down, replaced by Eliaquim Mangala.
[ FOLLOW LIVE: Real Madrid vs. Man City ]
Earlier this season in the Champions League, Kompany lasted just six minutes before leaving the pitch with a calf injury against Dynamo Kiev.
At 30-years-old, injuries have been Kompany's biggest enemy this season, with the Belgian center-back managing just 13 starts in the Premier League.
Anfield nights: Liverpool prepares for second leg vs Villarreal
Denis Suarez found Adrian Lopez on a streaking counter attack in the last gasps of stoppage time, breaking 90 minutes worth of stern resilience from Liverpool.
What a difference a minute can make.
Villarreal enters the second leg of its UEFA Europa League semifinal against Liverpool with a 1-0 lead and the knowledge that a draw or one-goal scoring loss will put it into the final.
[ PL PLAYBACK: What does Leicester's title say for the future? ]
For their part, the Reds will be amped up by the Anfield faithful on Thursday, and Jurgen Klopp will hope to make amends for a Starting XI and substitution set that left Liverpool fans asking, "Why no Sturridge, boss?"
Liverpool won't be too worried, though, given its Europa record when in need of a comeback. The Reds came back to topple Borussia Dortmund in the quarterfinals, one of the most enthralling matches in recent memory.
Suffice it to say that Reds don't want to go down 2-0 again, and expect a bit more of a chess match this go-round. Here's Dejan Lovren, from LiverpoolFC.com:
"[It will be] maybe even more than 90 minutes, so like I said – we need to be clever enough. We don't just have 20 minutes to play the game, we have 90 minutes so everything is possible. The fans know and are expecting a massive game, but we will take it smarter than the last time [against Dortmund]. It would be a great season for us if we go to the final and win it."
Klopp opted to rest several regulars in Sunday's loss to Swansea, with names like Smith, Stewart, Ojo, Chirivella and Ward on the pitch. Those will likely give way to more established names Mignolet, Lucas and Lallana come Friday.
Villarreal is coming off a 2-0 win over Valencia, and holding onto a shutout streak of more than three matches (including Thursday's win over Liverpool). They'll have to do very well to hold Liverpool scoreless, but perhaps a road goal will be all "The Yellow Submarine" needs to advance to the final in Basel.

September will be over $35.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
But the 64% decrease within the last month is just devastating to new investors. They see that stat and think it will keep going down. And that stops them from investing. BTCS needs to get a better public relations firm/department. They need to market this company A LOT BETTER!!! Get the name out there. Until we get some big positive news of serious substance, I don't see any catalyst that will drive the price up.
Ahhh the ole "major market manipulation" excuse. Im sorry but this isnt being manipulated. It just keep going down because there are more sellers than buyers, and the buyers are only willing to buy at a decreasing price. Plain and simple.
I love these kinds of replies. If you know so much, enlighten me with your infinite knowledge of RSO.
Yea the charts look like this just keeps going down slowly every year. I'll sell the minute it gets to 5.75 (if that ever happens again which looks unlikely).
IR should be very truthful...repercussions are jail time.
I hope IR is telling the truth. Those kinds of things put white collars behind bars....and trust me, the SEC/the Feds are dying to put them away even if it's for a few years (even a few days in prison, especially for some white collar guy, will ruin them mentally AND physically). Think twice IR!
I don't think that card ever existed in the first place. Haven't you seen Wolf of Wall St? IMO, this is one of those companies that those types of guys sell/lie about. The acquisition, and maybe even the company itself, are fugazi.
I don't think there is a bottom, unfortunately. I had high hopes but now they are gone.
I got in last week at an average of 5.70. Just wondering, what makes this go up? I noticed that on strong market days this barely moves. I also thought there would be a slight run up to the ex-div date, but that didn't happen. Does this go up ever?
Agree 1000%.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Hopefully soon. Very surprised it's losing so much of it's gains.
Wonder why AVAV has lost over 8% within 48hours. Odd. This should be at least $38 today.
Mt Gox is the only reason this is down. The company is getting a ton of prime time exposure. Bloomberg and CNBC does not interview companies that will be out of business in four days. That is just stupid. This will be over $2.00 very soon. Hold tight.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Irrational selling. Go ahead and take your losses. This will be over $2.00 within a month.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Get in now before it's over $50 in a year or two from now. Charles Allen is like the Zuckerberg of Bit Coin.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
$200k profit for the first quarter alone is EXTREMELY good. Based on these results, this is now worth about .006 WITHOUT even factoring in any acquisition/merger possibilities!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I wouldn't even call this a problem. This slight issue was rectified within 24 hours. The market also didn't pay it much attention. Bullish.
Sentiment: Buy
obviously hurting NE today. Not sure about the drillers anymore. Where is the bottom??

Jobless rate at 4-year low
WASHINGTON (AP) – The American job market isn't just growing. It's accelerating. Employers added 236,000 jobs in February and drove down the unemployment rate to 7.7 percent, its lowest level in more than 4 years. The gains signal that companies are confident enough in the economy to intensify hiring even in the face of tax increases and government spending cuts.

So, visited the doctor the other day. Got my results back. We have a wellness check yearly at work that looks at everything. I wanted to know glucose based stuff as well since diabetes is in both sides of the family, but all I got was cholesterol.
Anyways, anyone here know and understand anything about cholesterol? I'll lay it out for you here....
....................Nov 2012....Current
Total Cholesterol.......250.....233
I was mostly worried about Triglycerides. They are still high, but I am very happy with that number compared to the past. I've only been doing the bike riding for a little over a month and a half now.
I know nothing about this stuff. Only that I've read that HDL helps to clean out the LDL. Since this summer, I've cut out almost all junk food. We use to eat quite a bit. I'm not a vegetarian and never will be, may as well just quit eating altogether if I can't eat meat, but the doctor gave me a packet about eating a low fat diet (actually the receptionist, the doctor has gotten his money and didn't seem to want to talk about anything, such is life these days. As long as they get money, they could care less about your actual health.)
I know I should be eating more vegetables, and "more" I could probably do. The thing with meat and most of our eating is, we eat all organic or our own grown food. We eat mostly chicken which is organic no added hormone or antibiotics and the beef we raise grass fed and rotationally grazed in the family, my father-in-law raises it. We certainly don't eat beef as often as having a freezer always stocked would predict. Most of our meals are chicken or spaghetti which is what most of the beef is used for (think eating 3 meatballs with spaghetti as the majority of my beef eating.)
I think we do eat pretty low fat. My wife cooks everything from scratch with fresh herbs and seasonings. We use very little salt, rarely use butter, cook in olive oil, etc. Like I said, we cut 99% of the junk food out of our diet (occasionally will have something, which is usually homemade of course.)
So, this is pretty much how I've always eaten, we rarely go out to eat, rarely eat fast food, never eat packaged prepared easy food, and I blame all my weight gain over the years on just the junk food which has been cut out. Even calorie wise, the reason I started tracking was to see what I ate normally for meals. That turned out to be about 1600-1800/day without including any snacking on junk food. Since that's been cut out, I'm pretty much left with I eat 1600-1800 calories a day and have been since June. Yes, prior to all this, I did eat a LOT of junk food. Ice cream and homemade baked goods like cookies, brownies, and cake was a big problem.
So I am somewhat confused as I expected to see a decent decrease from last year. I don't know if it is a significant decrease but it seems to me that the triglycerides from 354 to 216 is a significant decrease. But my HDL (target >59 my papers say) was lower from 35 to 31 and my LDL (<100 target) increased from 144 to 159. Yet the total cholesterol decreased from 250 to 233, I don't know what "total" takes into consideration.
Then again, the before numbers were from way back last November. At work we will be having another one of these "Know Your Numbers" day coming up this November. That will give me a better comparison look being closer together than almost a year.
With weight loss (247 in June, 235 end of July when I started riding, and currently 217 today) and with eating less, or pretty much no, junk food, I expected to see better numbers with the HDL and LDL cholesterol. I did with the Triglycerides, but not with the HDL and LDL.

Skip to comments.Japanese conglomerate Suntory to buy Jim Beam
Posted on 01/13/2014 12:01:02 PM PST by ColdOne
OSAKA, Japan, Jan. 13 (UPI) -- Japanese alcoholic-beverage-producer-turned-conglomerate Suntory said it had agreed to buy Beam, makers of Jim Beam whiskey, in a deal worth $16 billion.
Suntory, which was founded in 1899 and produced Japan's first whiskey in 1923, controls vast holdings in Japan, including a multibrand beverage business, fitness spas, health clubs, Subway restaurants and golf ranges, the New York Times reported Monday.
(Excerpt) Read more at upi.com ...
America is commin apart at the "beam's"...
Yet in many countries foreign ownership is forbidden.
'1974 - Suntory Whisky, 'Sammy Davis Jr ad'
DuKyper cordials were distilled here too, but that's now gone too.
Looking forward to those "Jim Beam" flavored ramen noodles.
Now it will be marketed with Hello Kitty wines.
I was very impressed with the way Suntory operated back in those days . . . lots of decisions made at the middle management level so the top brass could concentrate on big fish like this.
Booze persists no matter what the economy.
I saw a story on Jack Daniel who as a teenager took over for his boss at the distillery who had been conscripted into the army and made a small fortune selling booze to both sides of the civil war.
Just what I'll need to make some Fukishima Fuzzy Navels....
They will never get Jack however... there will be a war zone established at the entrance.
Maker's Mark continues to decline down the list of good whiskey's.
24 year aged whiskey should have been excellent indeed!................
Garrison's is still the best bourbon out there. And it is made in Texas.
Jim Beam and Makers Mark now to be sold on Tokyo sidewalk vending machines. Craziest thing I saw when I was there in 1990, beer as well.
Naw, had to age longer because they used rice instead of corn, and as far as fired oak barrels they probably didn't know what an oak was.
"They will never get Jack"
Just the 'possible' thought makes me want to bury a 500 gallon tank in my back yard - right now!
Five hundred gallons should carry me through to my 90's.
from wiki:
Japanese oak is used in the making of professional drums from manufacturer Yamaha Drums. The higher density of oak gives the drum a brighter and louder tone compared to traditional drum materials such as maple and birch.
So, Japanese Oak should give the whiskey "a brighter and louder tone" as well..................
Huh, I thought they imported most of their oak, didn't know they had much of it there. I timbered my property a few years ago and all the veneer quality white oak and walnut was bought at the standing auction on site by a Japanese importer. He had to buy all of it, but everything of lower quality he let a local lumber company harvest at a much lower bid price.
JD is still American-owned as is Woodford Reserve, Old Forester and Early Times. They are owned by Brown-Forman.
Loud Whiskey, great band name!
Now you know why. It's in drums...........soon to be barrels..................
He paid nearly $8k for a single white oak tree, that better be some damn fine drums or barrels of whiskey at that price!
I can't speak Japanese...
It probably will be..............as soon as it's aged enough.................
This is a defensive move for them. They need to diversify out of the yen before the yen loses its value in the next few years.
Actually a good move. Booze should hold it's value, along with oil and ammo.
I tried their 12 y/o Hibiki during New Years. Thought it was very good. Better be at 47 euros that worked out to be about $75 a fifth.
Ever see an drunk/excited Japaneese dude over on a work trip party at a Vegas strip club? Pretty well fits all those details...bright, loud, oak... ;)
Suntory was high end stuff when I was there in 67.
I can't imagine drinking Beam hot out of little tiny
glasses though.
So I guess I should pronounce my favorite whiskey as Meikomaku or something similar...
I have 2 Yamaha Oak snare drums that are the best sounding snare drums I have , and I have a couple of dozen .
" Jim Beam and Makers Mark now to be sold on Tokyo sidewalk vending machines. Craziest thing I saw when I was there in 1990, beer as well."
Those days are gone . But now that convenience stores are ubiquitous , open 24/7 , and have a wide selection of booze , one can always get a drink .
Loud Whiskey, great band name!
"Whicskey" would be a better brand name..
You can thank Abathar for the oak.................
Garrisons is still the best bourbon out there. And it is made in Texas.
....maybe it's your whiskey it's not Bourbon though.
Today they age in barrels made from three different woods; American white oak, European holm oak and Japanese water oak.
That's Sammy Davis speak.
Under U.S. law, bourbon can be made pretty much anywhere in the country. But if you want to sell it, you'd better make it in Kentucky. :)
Remember what "angels' share" is, in the aging process? Gotta give some up the evaporative loss quotient. In any case, that's a lot of whisky for you!
The employees would revolt. It is a shame watching American industry die from the cancer of progressive infection.
Knob Creek single barrel reserve is my favorite. A bit pricy at $50 a bottle, but well worth it if you have a good liquor store that keeps it in stock.
Uh oh.

Latest "Ideas for Intergenerational Living" Newsletter
It's been an exciting and eventful summer in terms of new intergenerational initiatives, including pilot projects, conferences, research, curricular resources, reports, blogs, and more.
Intergenerational Contact Zones – or ICZs for short, serve as spatial focal points for older adults and younger generations to meet, interact, build trust and friendships, and work together to address issues of local concern. They can be found in all types of community settings including libraries, schools, parks, and multi-service community centers.
Leading Pennsylvania's economy with $5.7 billion dollar in sales each year, Pennsylvania's future depends on agriculture. 7.7 million acres are devoted to agriculture use and of those 4.2 million acres (54%) are owned by farmers age 55 and over, according to 2007 NASS agriculture statistics. If agriculture is to remain Pennsylvania's largest industry it's imperative for these acres to transition to the next generation of farmers.
Here are some U.S. Census: Facts for Features - In 1970, Marian McQuade initiated a campaign to establish a day to honor grandparents. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed a federal proclamation, declaring the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents Day. This day has been celebrated every year since to honor our nation's grandparents.
With 7.1 million grandchildren living with their grandparents and 4.7 million children living with "other relatives," according to the 2010 census, almost 12 million children in America today are being raised in kinship care. Of course, this group of kinship providers comes with unique needs and challenges that are often difficult to address. The outcome for millions of children depend on the resources and support these families can access.
"Using Technology to Connect Generations: Some Considerations of Form and Function" is the title of an article recently published in the communication and education journal, Comunicar (vol. 23, no. 45, 2015).
Project TRIP, from Virginia Cooperative Extension and Virginia Tech, consists of an online training program, a series of fact sheets and other publications, and presentations – all with a focus on articulating effective practices in intergenerational programming.
The European Map of Intergenerational Learning (EMIL) is a collaborative network of members working together to support intergenerational learning taking place across Europe. Established in 2009, the network uses the existing expertise of partner organizations already working in the field to create a learning network for others involved in intergenerational programs across Europe.
"Bridging the Intergenerational Divide" is a BBC Capital article on intergenerational relations at the workplace. It presents many provocative examples and diverse perspectives about intergenerational contact and conflict at work. In the "consider an alternate view" section of the article, an argument is made to counter oversimplified notions about intergenerational tensions and conflict that are gaining increased media attention in recent years.*
"IK: Other Ways of Knowing" is an electronic, multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles as well as review articles in all areas of indigenous knowledge from a global perspective. The journal is published twice yearly by the Pennsylvania State University Libraries, and is co-sponsored by the Penn State Libraries and the Penn State Interinstitutional Center for Indigenous Knowledge (ICIK).
[from NCFR news, Feb. 13, 2015] The RAND Corporation has published a new research brief -- "Valuing the Care We Provide our Elders" -- that puts the monetary value of informal caregiving of elderly people in the U.S. at $522 billion annually. Findings, which are based on data from the American Time Use Survey, include that Americans spend more than 30 billion hours annually providing informal care for elderly friends or family members.
The following excerpts are from the Caregiving Policy Digest (July 30, 2015 issue), published by the National Center on Caregiving.
Generations United is looking for exceptional individuals for summer internships in Washington, DC. These internships provide opportunities to build research skills, become involved with advocacy training and engage in an active intergenerational network. Stipends available.
Matt Kaplan, Penn State Professor of Intergenerational Programs and Aging, and Alan Lai, Associate Professor in the Department of Applied Psychology at Beijing Normal University/Hong Kong Baptist University, are co-recipients of the Brabazon Award for Evaluation Research.
The following creative productions documenting family journeys through caregiving were highlighted in the Family Caregiver Alliance – National Center on Caregiving newsletter: Nov. 24, 2014.
A new study from the American Academy of Pediatrics founds that more than 1.3 million children spend their time caring for a family member who suffers from a physical or mental illness or substance abuse. On average, children caregivers spend about 2.5 hours per weekday and 4 hours on weekend days caring for their loved ones.
The National Alliance for Caregiving recently released a white paper on family caregivers and technology. The report, Catalyzing Technology to Support Family Caregiving, is the next step following the organization's April 2014 roundtable in Palo Alto, California. The roundtable included a panel of 22 national experts from Silicon Valley, government agencies, and the non-profit sector who identified the best next steps for moving the field of caregivers and technology forward. This report, written by Richard Adler & Rajiv Mehta, provides a good starting point for innovators who want to better understand a caregiver's needs.

text: Iran to launch 'Islamic Google Earth' in four months Technology 11 April 13 by Liat Clark An Iranian minister has announced the country will launch an "Islamic Google Earth" in the next four months, in an attempt to challenge the "spying" tool's monopoly. Referring to it as Google Earth is probably not the best way to begin, then.Information and communications technology minister Mohammad Hassan Nami made the announcement this week, as reported by Mehr News Agency, saying it is being developed with "Islamic views" in mind to show the world "reality" and "values in Iran". This will all be in contrast to a Google Earth that "belongs to the ominous triangle of the US, England and the Zionists". Any idea of it being an open access educational tool for all, appears to have been lost in translation.Just how Islamic a 3D view of the globe can be, will be interesting to find out -- though a report flagging up a potential Islamic Google Earth contender last year said it would enable Muslims across the globe to know which way Mecca is, for prayers. Conveying religious and national identity through a flyover is going to be tough, though.Iran might choose to start with the Persian Gulf. In May last year a foreign ministry spokesperson announced Iran would be launching legal action against Google for removing the body of water's name from its map service. Bahman Dori of the ministry of culture and Islamic guidance said that "Google would not be able to hide the truth" with its actions. The truth behind the matter is that the body of water is known across the globe as the Persian Gulf, but often referred to as the Arabian Gulf by Iran's neighbours. As when Apple attempted to side-step national arguments by not labelling the East China Sea islands -- disputed by China, Japan and Taiwan -- Google looked as though it was trying to avoid any confrontation. No such luck. "Such actions from organisations such as Google would not bear fruit and their visitors will lose trust in the information they provide," said Dori. "By spreading lies, they lose their credibility."Since announcing it would move away from the global internet to its own national intranet service by the end of 2013, Iran has been intermittently blocking YouTube and Gmail, with the latter reinstated last October only after a public backlash. Meanwhile, millions of other websites are permanently blocked and, most recently, the public reportedly had difficulty accessing these even using VPNs. All these moves, including the launch of a national email system, appear to indicate it is getting closer to an intranet -- the nation may even be hoping to one day mimic a Google-like monopoly on integrated services. In December 2012, for instance, Iran announced it would launch its own video-sharing site to replace Google-owned YouTube after the controversial Innocence of Muslims film was published on the site. Again, the intent of launching a homegrown alternative was to "attract Persian-speaking users and also promote Iranian culture and oppose western cultural propaganda". That project actually first began in 2009, so it's entirely possible an Islamic Google Earth has been in the works for a while. According to Nami the ministry is currently working on "creating an appropriate datacentre which could be capable of processing this volume of information", so it doesn't yet have the capacity to support it.Iran has repeatedly referred to Google as a spying tool -- which, in fairness, is not totally inaccurate, considering how much user data is being gathered and logged from integrated services like YouTube and Google (and how many bizarre government structures have been spotted in the desert using Google Earth). This pooling of data has already been criticised by European regulators which are threatening legal action and regard it as excessive and a threat to personal privacy. Iranian authorities probably also love the fact that Google Earth's tech came from a CIA-funded company acquired by Google in 2004. Mehr reports Nami as saying: "On the surface, Google Earth is providing a service to users, but in reality security and intelligence organisations are behind it in order to obtain information from other countries."It's unclear whether Iran's continual critique of US entities like Google is a commentary on privacy, modern monopolies or ethics, or just a vehicle for persuading the Iranian public that a national intranet is a good idea. An IT consultant who had worked on Iran's intranet project told the Guardian he thought the whole announcement was purely aimed at getting more funding and secure working contracts, considering it is so far off having the infrastructure to launch a datacentre with the kind of capacity they're talking about. It will also be an interesting development to watch, one year on from Apple (worth more £400 billion at the time) attempting, and epically failing, to replace market-leader Google Maps on iOS 6. How an Islamic Google Earth will be any less of a destructive spy tool than a western one, remains to be seen. Particularly considering it will be named Basir, which means "spectator" in Farsi, but is also the name of an Iranian model of laser-guided artillery. Edited by Olivia Solon Latest on wired.co.uk

Vandalism prompts surveillance upgrade
A rash of vandalism at Auburn elementary and middle schools has caused administrators to consider increasing security when students and teachers are off campus.
The Auburn Union School District Board of Trustees will meet on Nov. 14 to discuss new surveillance cameras for multiple schools that were vandalized in a variety of ways over the summer.
Michele Schuetz, superintendent of the Auburn Union School District, said the vandalism occurred primarily at EV Cain Middle School and Rock Creek Elementary School, but some damage was also sustained at Skyridge Elementary School.
"A year ago we had someone burn a few slides, but this summer it was constant, so we decided to beef up security," Schuetz said.
The vandalism was reported to law enforcement, but the culprits have not been caught.
At one school, classes were broken into and computers were smashed. Someone poured soda over computers and keyboards as well. At Rock Creek, Schuetz said the vandals went as far as breaking into the kitchen and stealing food.
Monica Williams, chief business official with the Auburn Union School District, said the damages totaled $15,000. The biggest expense falls on the technology that was destroyed and the windows that were broken.
One of the problems that led to the vandalizing is that during the summer there are not as many people on campus. During the school year, Schuetz said a custodian is there until very late at night, which helps deter anyone from coming on campus or trying to break into the building.
EV Cain Principal Randy Ittner said in the two incidents that happened within two weeks in July, a laptop was stolen and windows were broken at his school. Some areas of the school have alarm systems and there is not video surveillance currently, but so cameras would be a welcome addition.
"The problem in the summer is that there isn't someone here all of the time," Ittner said.
Williams said the district has only looked into a few options for better surveillance equipment, but that the installation at each school will probably run around $1,900 per site and $120 per month for monitoring.

DH has a gun that his father is keeping for him. He wants to bring it home. He says it has a trigger lock on it with the key on his possession, he can keep the ammo separate, and he'll buy a safe for it. I have three preteen kids and one on the way. My brother died because he broke into a man's home, stole his gun, and shot himself. I. Do. Not. Want. This. Gun. In. My. Home.
DH is %100 positive that he can keep our children from ever coming to harm because of this gun. This is also purely out of sentimentality and recreational reasons, we don't live in a dangerous area where he feels he needs to protect us. We don't even lock our doors most of the time.
This conversation, every time it comes up, leaves me crying and furious and just not understanding how he can think the risks outweigh the benefits. He says I'm being a snob and selfish. I guess I'm just asking you ladies for your opinions on the matter. Am I overreacting? If he follows through with all of the preventative measures that he's outlined, should I feel safe with this thing in my house?

Black Elk frontman Tom Glose in his formative years, hanging on the wall of the B Side bar in PDX
It about broke my heart in two that I was only able to attend MusicfestNW in Portland for two days (Wednesday-Thursday), but I'm thrilled that I got to catch what I did. The Doug Fir served as my primary default location, since most of what I wanted to see was there and I didn't want to risk missing out on anything by dodging to other venues. When we needed a breather from the crowds at that club, we made a beeline for the B Side, a charming dive with a fondness for mixing flammable-strength drinks and playing Hot Snakes records. They also had quite a knack for decor...among the items hanging from the walls: crude-yet-cute dioramas of the bar itself, a stuffed bunny with a nail through its head, and a framed, grade school-era photo of Black Elk frontman Tom Glose with the word "Fail" written in across his forehead (amusing, especially considering how whip-smart that guy is).
Sadly, the pragmatic choice of sticking close to Doug Fir on Thursday night meant bailing on the Scared of Chaka reunion (midnight over at the Ash Street Saloon) so that I didn't miss the return of Steel Pole Bathtub (1 a.m. at Doug Fir). Thankfully, watching SPB openers Red Fang melt everyone's faces off was a helluva consolation prize, and hopefully Scared of Chaka will play a show in Seattle soon (confidential to Dave Hernandez: Do it! Do it!).
Steel Pole Bathtub
On Monday, I'll have much more on everything I managed to catch, including the unanticipated joy of seeing former Unwound drummer Sarah Lund's excellent new band, Hungry Ghost (pictured below).

NEW YORK — MSNBC is in apology mode again. This time it's about mocking a Romney family picture that showed the 2012 Republican presidential candidate's adopted grandson, who is black.
Melissa Harris-Perry's show Sunday showed a photo with infant Kieran Romney, his grandparents and their 21 other grandchildren, all of them white. Panelist actress Pia Glenn sang "one of these things doesn't belong, one of these things just isn't the same," a tune from the children's program "Sesame Street."
Comedian Dean Obeidallah said that it "sums up the diversity of the Republican party."
"I am sorry. Without reservation or qualification. I apologize to the Romney family," Perry's Twitter account said.
Glenn also apologized to families with adoptive children but said her sing-song wasn't racist.
It's the latest misstep from an MSNBC host. Martin Bashir resigned Dec. 4 after suggesting someone should defecate in Sarah Palin's mouth; and actor Alec Baldin's show was dropped after he used a gay slur in a confrontation with a photographer.

Right, the Rockets' lighter side peaked out on this one, though, it would be the Clefairy one (3 episodes later) where it's front and center and forevermore. At this point, I think it's clear the writers were uncertain which way to go with the trio, as the previous episode had them so serious. Again, it's that's dark potential that I discussed in the Emergency discussion, which impacted this episode for me. Particularly, as their role was split: comedic, yet competent (i.e., the Pokemon battle).
In terms of character study, this was a good one for them, which isn't something I say often on this series.
