I hope someone can give me some direction.
I have a typical 2 story New England colonial with a septic system. I have 2 baths upstairs and 1 bath on the first floor. The master bath and the first floor bath are located in northwest corner of the house. I believe they tie in to the main drain pipe in that corner of the house. Also in the first floor bath is the washing machine. The main drain goes straight down into the basement and then exits the northeast corner of the house to the septic system in the front yard (east side of the house).
The problem:
I keep finding water around the base of the first floor toilet.
Attempted fix:
The toilet tank and water line is not leaking. I decided then to replace the toilet wax ring. When the problem re-occurred, I took a look and saw that the toilet wax ring was not very well attached to the toilet horn. I then cleaned off the old wax ring and bought a new "wax-free" toilet ring. This is a device that glues with a rubber cement like glue to the toilet horn and then get pressed into drain as you mount the toilet. I am confident that there is a good connection between the new ring and the toilet.
While I was fixing the toilet, I noticed that water started to come up from the drain when someone flushed the toilet upstairs. In the past, I also noticed water filling up the toilet when the upstairs bath was draining and someone also flushed the toilet upstairs. I suspect what I am seeing is water that is coming up from the drain getting out around the first floor toilet ring and then flowing out from under the toilet.
Does this sound reasonable? If yes, what may be causing this? We have our septic pumped once per year.

Mention of "Zadok the Priest" brought back most pleasant memories of concerts at St. Martins-in-the-Fields in London, at which "ZadoK' is performed as the opening number for choral concerts there - rather like "The Star-Spangled Banner" at a baseball game. (For the non-musicians reading this thread, George Friedrich Handel wrote a setting for this Biblical passage in 1727, for the coronation of George II, and it's been performed at every British coronation ever since. Van Boven's must have been open for a LONG time, no? )
Van Boven's has been a University of Michigan campus landmark since 1921. It is located in a charming arcade reminiscent of so many European cities.

New Home with Old World Style
Mediterranean flavor plus Sea Island tradition add up to a new house that blends seamlessly with its established neighbors.
The homeowners wanted a residence that would echo the brickwork and terra-cotta roofs of Casa Genotta, the 1932 home built by playwright Eugene O'Neill, which sits just two blocks away. This is not the high-style Spanish of Palm Beach, 360 miles to the south, but is instead a more rustic version that marks the northern reach of Spain's colonization along the Eastern Seaboard.
Thad had all of the black ironwork in the home—including the front gates and the entry balustrade—custom-made by a craftsman Charles Calhoun in Atlanta.
A sisal rug by Stark Carpet anchors a coffee table from A. Tyner Antiques and tight-back upholstered sofas from South of Market, both in Atlanta. The walls are painted in Benjamin Moore's China White.
The kitchen countertops are granite, with shells and sea life embedded in the stone. The terra-cotta tiles were aged with dark wax.
Pillows on the loggia and by the pool are by Schumacher.

"the quality of the magnet is great, the print is beautiful, the colors are so vivid, the picture could be better, but thats because my picture was taken with a celphone, so the quality is not the same than one taken with a professional camera. My only complain, is that the picture on the magnet could of be bigger, the picture looks a bit small for the size of the card. In general, is a beautifuly made card, great quality."
"Simple and adorable! Magnet quality is amazing, design and lettering is flawless. Just ordered the matching invites too!"
"The pictures were very clear and the background color was very vibrant. Also, the magnet was a lot bigger than I had anticipated. I was nervous about buying online, but I will always buy from Wedding Paper Divas now! Also, I sent my first one in for review and they personally called me and changed the background color to mint and added in my wedding website link at no extra charge. This site was very helpful and I LOVED the finished product."
"This save the date in blue is bright and beautiful. The only thing that I noticed is that anything printed over the picture in the bottom left corner can be slightly difficult to read. The blue color is vibrant and the magnets are of good quality"
"The card is classically beautiful with the slight antique look. I used the Signature paper which turned out wonderfully. The card felt substantial and I predict that it will last well and look great on people's refrigerators."

Secret Ingredient
Homemade Sweet Rolls with a Secret Ingredient (Pumpkin)
One of my most favorite baked treats is the one I tend to make least often. That might be a good thing for my waistline, but I've decided that is just plain unacceptable.
Now, many of you probably call these cinnamon rolls, but from the time I was a little girl I've known them as sweet rolls. Making homemade sweet rolls can take a little time out of your already busy schedules but there isn't nothing like um…
These rolls have a soft and chewy texture, and their yellow color is a result of using my secret ingredient – pumpkin. And while I'm talking about the color yellow, some of you have noticed that many of my baked goods tend to be more yellow than other similar recipes. That's because I use our very own farm fresh eggs that our busy little chickens lay for us each day. The yolks in fresh eggs are so much darker and richer than the eggs you purchase in a grocery store. And why? I'm not certain, but I did read somewhere that grocery store eggs are at least 45 days old before they are available for purchase. I suppose that might have something to do with it.
Homemade Sweet Rolls
Makes about 1 1/2 dozen rolls.
1/4 c. margarine
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. milk
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp., plus 1 tsp. of yeast
1 c. hot water
1/2 c. canned pumpkin
5 c. all-purpose flour, plus 1 1/4 c. for kneading
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1 tbsp. cinnamon
1/4 c. margarine, softened (for spreading on the dough)
1 1/4 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 – 2 tbs. milk
Put margarine, sugar, milk and salt into a saucepan; heat until margarine melts. In large bowl, add yeast, 2 cups of flour, egg, pumpkin, and hot water; mix completely. Add remaining flour and mix thoroughly. *Note – the dough will be sticky but you want it that way. On a floured surface, using some of the flour you've set aside for kneading, knead the dough until it is no soft, tender, and just slightly sticky. Form into a ball and place in a greased bowl. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise until double.
Grease a 9"x13" pan. Line the bottom of the pan with a piece of parchment paper and lightly grease the top of the paper.
Once dough has doubled, punch down and cut in half. With a rolling pin, roll each half in equal sized rectangular shapes (about 1/2" thick). Spread softened margarine on top of the dough, and sprinkle prepared brown sugar filling equally on each piece. Starting with the longest side of the rectangle, roll each piece into a log. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into (about 1 1/2") slices and place into prepared pan – just so they aren't touching. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise until doubled.
Bake in 350 degree oven for about 20 minutes, or until rolls sound hollow when tapped. Let cool, and prepare icing.
In a bowl, thoroughly mix sugar, vanilla and milk. Drizzle over top of warm sweet rolls.
One thing that's worth mentioning – when I make sweet rolls I usually cut the very ends off of the logs so that each piece will be equal in size. Most of the time I will fit the odd pieces into the pan between the perfectly shaped rolls. If you are serving the pan of rolls to company and you want them to look perfect then toss the ends out. I just hate to waste deliciousness!
I divided this pan of rolls up and put most of them in the freezer. When I need them (yes, need) I'll thaw a package and breakfast is served.
Do you freeze baked goods for a rainy day? Or, are you saying what rainy day?
The perks of blogging and double dark espresso cake
Since I started blogging I've been a lucky girl. I have acquired samples of delicious Ghirardelli Chocolates, got a free loaf of Nature's Pride Bread, was welcomed at the 2010 Finger Lakes Cork and Fork event, received Palm Leaf plates from Marxfoods.com, and the flour giant, King Arthur, sent me their cake flour, whole-white flour, and their Secret Ingredient gift pack to try. Not bad for a beginner. But wait! That's not all.
I am also fortunate enough to have won three great prizes in giveaways during my (less than one year) of blogging. Two of the prizes I won were from one of my favorite bloggers – Lindsey at Gingerbread Bagels. Lindsey is a bit like me in the sense that she loves to bake. Her posts are generally about sweets, and lots of them. Her personality matches the confections she makes – sweet. I refer to her as my lucky penny. Before Lindsey, the only thing I won was a football from a Snickers candy bar sweepstakes. I entered to win a Jeep, and got a Snickers Nerf football instead. Oh well, never look a gift horse in the mouth…
The first prize I won from Gingerbread Bagels was a beautiful jar of Marrionberry Fruit Spread from Oregon Growers & Shippers which I'm saving for a special occasion. The jar of jam is so pretty it brightens my day every time I see it.
The second prize I won from Gingerbread Bagels was a variety gift pack of Tate's Bake Shop cookies, and a Tate's Bake Shop Cookbook written by Kathleen King. As luck would have it this package just arrived today. I can't wait to scour the cookbook while dunking the cookies in a piping hot, fresh cup of coffee.
Speaking of Gingerbread Bagels, she currently has a contest going on. Her prize this time? Williams-Sonoma Peppermint Bark Cookies. Be sure to check out her site and enter the contest. I promise I won't enter this one!
The other prize I won this year? The Earthbound Cookbook written by Myra Goodman. The giveaway was offered by Greg at Sippitysup. Greg has the knack of really making you feel like you've won big time. He actually video taped his drawing. When my name was drawn I might have jumped up and down like a Price is Right game show contestant. Here is Sippitysup's video clip announcing the winner – thank God no one was video tapping me as my name was drawn. I love the cookbook which is packed full of (250 to be exact) recipes and tips on eating green and protecting our planet. As a person who recently started raising chickens for some fresh eggs I found myself particularly drawn to pages 376 & 377 which explains the terms used relating to eggs – very informative.
Last month when King Arthur Flour sent me some of their products to try I was on cloud nine, and I was especially eager to try the secret ingredient collection and the cake flour I received. The secret ingredient collection is a gift pack that includes some of the companies best-selling ingredients. Double-Dutch cocoa, espresso powder, Fiori di Sicilia flavoring, Vietnamese cinnamon, and Madagascar vanilla – all packaged in an eye-catching 8 " square USA pan.
This pan is awesome. It's commercial grade and constructed of heavy gauge aluminium steel (65% recycled steel). The sides and bottom are fluted giving it some character in the appearance department, and adding strength and facilitated air circulation for even baking. The pan is coated with a clear, non-stick environmentally friendly silicone that helps ensure your baked goods will release from the pan more easily. The best thing about his pan? It's made in the USA.
I've used some of the ingredients in several of my recent baking creations and I can't say enough good things about the quality of King Arthur. Their cocoa, vanilla and cinnamon are so fragrant that I have a hard time closing them once I open them. Not only do these all smell aromatic, they contribute a quality robust flavor to every treat.
Since King Arthur was kind enough to share some of their products with me I decided to create a recipe using their products to share with you.
This recipe is for a dark, delicious chocolate cake. I 've named it Double Dark Espresso Cake. For best results bake one day ahead of needing the cake. This allows the flavors to saturate the cake overnight.
The ingredients you'll need:
2 c. sugar
2 eggs (room temperature)
1/2 c. butter (softened)
1 c. hot black coffee
1 c. sour milk
3/4 c. King Arthur Double-Dutch cocoa
1/2 tsp. Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla
1/2 tsp. King Arthur espresso powder
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 c. King Arthur unbleached cake flour blend
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl with a mixer mix sugar, butter, eggs and vanilla until creamy. Add the dry ingredients to the sugar mixture. Then add the milk and coffee. Mix completely.
I used the 8″ USA pan and a 6″ round cake pan. Bake until toothpick comes clean. The size of the pan you use will determine your baking time. Frost with your favorite chocolate frosting. I really like the dark chocolate flavor produced from using the cocoa, expresso powder and coffee.
This post should be construed as a big thank you for all the wonderful things I've received, and all the connections and friendships I've made while blogging. When I started blogging I never imagined I'd be this fortunate. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Dodger Stadium grows in stature as it reaches 50th birthday
LOS ANGELES – Dodger Stadium is 50 years old. Considering that 30 is the new 100 for ballparks, that's not bad.
In its lifetime, 11 cities have built stadiums that have been abandoned or demolished since.
Houston's Astrodome was the Eighth Wonder of the World and now cowers like a thimble next to a gigantic football stadium, its baseball team long gone to downtown. It came along in 1965 and attracted tourists from wayward continents. Dodger Stadium was 3 at the time.
Now it stands alone, cleaning itself daily, a shining antique on a hill, overlooking City Hall, becoming more relevant with each birthday. It is shielded from the motorist's gaze and is yet so central.
"I was in college when it was under construction," Peter O'Malley was saying last week, in his downtown office, sitting not far from a newspaper cartoon depicting Kay O'Malley, Walter's wife, throwing out the first pitch — and catcher John Roseboro muffing it.
"The size of it, the height, the magnitude struck me more than the setting. It just stood out like an ocean liner. It was a photo finish to get it ready, a great buildup. But the reviews were very good."
Back then, stadium manager Bob Smith instructed the crew, "If you see graffiti in the restrooms in the third inning, it's gone by the fourth."
That, in retrospect, probably explains the intensity of the anger toward Frank McCourt, who has mercifully sold the Dodgers to a group fronted by Magic Johnson. McCourt didn't maintain the cathedral. The parking lots and bathrooms got slovenly, and it was perceived as unsafe even before Bryan Stow.
Dodger Stadium and Vin Scully are what's left of the Dodgers. Even among last year's plagues, the club sold 2.93 million tickets. But why? The club itself hasn't been to a World Series since 1988. No, it's the ballpark.
In 1957, Walter O'Malley spotted Chavez Ravine from a sheriff's helicopter. He was an engineer and saw how the ballpark could fit into the hills. The Dodgers won a city referendum in 1958 that authorized construction.
Because the last six families in Chavez Ravine were forcibly evicted from their homes, in 1959 as cameras rolled, it has become popular to assume the Dodgers were responsible.
City council member Roz Wyman, exasperated by the dissonance, said that Clete Roberts of KCBS/2 actually told the families not to leave voluntarily but to wait for the deputies, since that would make better TV
"He told me that himself," Wyman said. "The story never gets told correctly. It all started in 1949, long before Walter O'Malley was even thinking about moving."
In fact, Dodger Stadium is where it is because of McCarthyism.
The vision was to build 26 high-rises and 160 houses in the ravine, for public housing, and to relocate the residents until the project was finished.
But when Norris Poulson became mayor of L.A. in 1953, he denounced public housing as a socialistic scheme, and the program was abandoned.
Frank Wilkinson was in charge of the L.A. Housing Authority and had to appear in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee. When he refused to answer questions, he spent nine months in jail.
Another twist is that Peter O'Malley's dream scenario would have included the demolition and replacement of Dodger Stadium.
"We wanted to build a 'wow' football stadium right next door," he said. "Then we would tear down Dodger Stadium, the Dodgers would go somewhere for a couple of years, which isn't an eternity, and then build a 'wow' stadium for the Dodgers."
O'Malley also pioneered Diamond Vision, in 1980. He bought the video board from Mitsubishi for $1.
"My feeling on it was that less is more," he said. "I didn't want to show every batter going to the plate. I wanted people to want more."
He smiled at such an archaic thought.
The no-hitters and championships still resound. But O'Malley remembers a dinner party in the stadium club, the night before the opener, when they watched the final chunk of the scoreboard go into place. It had rained all winter, but Walter was adamant. The Dodgers would open the 1962 season on April 10.
Roz Wyman, instrumental in the process, remembers the cool of another evening, when Walter asked her to come to the loge and gaze upon the scene they all had wrought.
"And he got the organist to play 'Take Me Out To The Ballgame,'" Wyman said. "For just him and me."
Dodger Stadium is like that. It flips all the L.A. clichés. Amid dehumanizing traffic, it is the most personal building we have. In a city that supposedly tosses its yesterdays and worships the 'new,' it shows that craftsmanship never ages.
"My hunch," said Peter O'Malley, as understated as his park. "is that it'll be there for a long time."

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

How can I get the diagnostics information out of YQL rest query?
I am executing the simple query below in YQL Console, and I want to get the "diagnostics" portion of the data in my application. How can I do that?
As far as I can see, this query gives me only the "results" part for html table, right?
select * from html where url="http://google.com/" and xpath='//head/title'
With the console, you have to turn on the Diagnostics checkbox. If you click in The Rest Query box at the bottom of the page, right-click, choose Copy from your web browser's popup menu, your clipboard will now contain:
Notice the &diagnostics=true appended to the end of the query.
Yes. Diagnostics should be set to true. I have figured that out thank you very much. Unfortunatelly some documentation still says diagnostics is true by default, which is not correct at the moment.

The neuroscience of drugs for therapy, for prevention, and for recreation. Drug addiction and drug abuse. You'll learn the prospects for new generations of medications in neurology, psychiatry, aging, and treatment of substance abuse.Preview Lectures
What happens in the body when a person smokes a cigarette? After several weeks of smoking? When a person takes antidepressant or antipsychotic medication? A drug for pain, migraine, or epilepsy? A recreational drug? Neuroscientists are beginning to understand these processes. You'll learn how drugs enter the brain, how they act on receptors and ion channels, and how "molecular relay races" lead to changes in nerve cells and neural circuits that far outlast the drugs themselves. "Drugs and the Brain" also describes how scientists are gathering the knowledge required for the next steps in preventing or alleviating Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, schizophrenia, and drug abuse.
Week 1. Beginning 4 January 2014
Introduction and summary of the course. What is a drug? Types of drug molecules. Drug entry into nervous system. Drug receptors. Introduction to mammalian brains. Botulinum toxin. Origin of the resting potential. Electrophysiology.Week 2. Beginning 11 January
Drugs activate ion channels. Drugs block ion channels. Drugs activate and block G protein pathways.Week 3. Beginning 18 January
Drugs block neurotransmitter transporters. Pharmacokinetics. Recreational drugsWeek 4. Beginning 25 January
Drug addiction and Drug abuse.Nicotine Addiction.Opiate Addiction.Week 5. Beginning 1 February
Drugs for neurodegenerative diseases: Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease.Week 6. Beginning 8 February
Drugs for epilepsy and migraine. Drugs for anxiety.Week 7.Beginning 15 February
Drugs for psychiatric diseases: Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia. Prospects for better drugs.
Neuroscience, the most interdisciplinary science of the 21st century, receives inputs from many other fields of science, medicine, clinical practice, and technology. Previous exposure to one or more of the subjects listed in "Suggested Readings" will provide a good vantage point, as we introduce material from these subjects.
We recommend (but do not require) that students read Molecular Neuropharmacology: A Foundation for Clinical Neuroscience (Second Edition)
by Eric Nestler, Steven Hyman, and Robert Malenka.
The instructors and students provide additional appropriate links to reading on molecular biology, genomics, physiology, pharmacology, cell biology, biophysics, organic chemistry, psychiatry, neurology, and electrical circuits.
The class consists of lecture videos, 8 - 15 minutes in length. These contain 2-3 integrated quiz questions per video. There are standalone quizzes each week. Total lecture time is ~ 14 hours.

Camped here for one night during the week. Office staff was super nice on check-in. Park was empty because it's past the season and during the week. Can't imagine what the place is like when it's filled up! Too few bathrooms for too many people, I'd bet. Bathrooms were clean but old and rundown.
The beach looked nice, but too small for even 100 people, never mind the crowds that must gather from over 800 campsites. Bikes would be a good idea to bring here, everything is a bit too far to walk, and no place to park a car.
No amenities of any kind, strict no alcohol, no nudity, no cutting of trees.
(Where's the fun in that? If I can't drink beer while cutting down the woods naked, ....) It really is a lovely park and we enjoyed our stay.
The sites are all different sizes and layouts, some useless due to rocks and tree roots, others wide open and perfect. We camped here in our VW Westfalia camper. - JudoJeff

Stayed at this campground many times over the years. Great location to the only real asset RI has which are their beaches. As far as the campground goes it is not given the maintenance it requires to offer safe access to the facility. Tree limbs are hanging to low everywhere. The state of RI like other north eastern states employ lazy personal that are there for the check instead of the pride of having a descent job with yes responsibilities. I witnessed the campground staff taking their afternoon nap deep off the trail on at least two occasions. We all know this will never change. It's to bad because this campground has more potential than it state is giving it. - tinman

Great campground. We were at site 110 on Labor Day weekend. It is right at the boat ramp so there was constant activity. Early morning wakes up with boats backing in and the fishermen shouting directions. The camp itself is great. This was our third trip here. - wfmdfm

We arrived early April and found only two other RV's in the park. Absolutely secluded and beautiful beach location. We own a 20' RV and since there's no dump station nor water AND you have limited grey/black tank storage you must conserve and be smart about use or you'll have to drive to the nearest dump site 15 min. You can use a generator but it's only allowed until 8 pm.
I've had family and friends stay here over the summer and its wall to wall campers with loud generators and cramped for space, the bathrooms in April were closed to us. If you're looking for serene and quiet I'd go off season as we will do so in the Fall. If they'd allow generators to go to 10 pm I'd give it a better rating. Not an issue if you have the larger RV's, a challenge if you have ones with limited power and water capacities. - koeka

Park still gets a 10 for location. But during July and August there simply are too many vehicles in it. Getting set up can be a real challenge. One big problem is that the Department of Environmental Management is now in an office, so after the parking vendor leaves at 5:00 pm the gate booth is unmanned. So some folks with sites have all kinds of family and friends coming in to visit. This park is much better just before and after the peak summer season. - Bob and Inga
Apr 2014 - $20.00
This is an open area parking. Since it was off season only a few campers were here so it was pretty quiet. Extensive beach for walking, fishing, and small boating could be seen. We had cold evenings, nice sunsets and sunrises. There are no amenities so it's dry camping. Good restaurants nearby. We stayed 3 days. - RonMill

Dow Jones Industrial Average futures added 14 points, or 0.1 percent, to 12,536. The number of shares changing hands in Stoxx Europe 600 Index's companies was 9.3 percent below the 30-day average at this time of day.
The selloff "probably has a little more to go in the short term as the fiscal cliff is obviously the biggest worry for the market," Nick Xanders, an equity strategist at BTIG Ltd. in London, said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. "The uncertainty is keeping companies on hold and consumers on hold until next year."
President Barack Obama will hold an opening round of talks with Congressional leaders today to reach a deal to avoid a $607 billion deficit-cutting package known as the fiscal cliff. U.S. industrial production probably cooled in October as superstorm Sandy knocked out power in the Northeast, economists said before a report today.
Concern about the so-called fiscal cliff has driven the S&P 500 to the lowest level since July 25. The index has retreated 5.3 percent since President Barack Obama's re-election set up a budget showdown with the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.
Gap climbed 3.8 percent to $34.52. The company has been among the top performers on the S&P 500 this year as improved product and marketing at its namesake, Old Navy and Banana Republic brands drive sales in North America. The retailer, which said revenue this fiscal year has increased 6.4 percent to $10.9 billion, is benefiting from lower cotton costs and new management, especially at value-oriented Old Navy.
Dell retreated 2.7 percent to $9.30. The No. 3 PC maker is struggling amid a deep slump in demand as companies wait to upgrade machines and consumers turn to smartphones and tablets like Apple Inc.'s iPad and iPhone to manage their work and personal lives. Even as Chief Executive Officer Michael Dell works to mitigate the decline by adding storage, networking gear, software and services through acquisitions, the company still gets half its sales from PCs.
Dynavax tumbled 56 percent to $2.03. While Heplisav works to treat the contagious liver disease, Dynavax didn't provide adequate safety data to support approval, Food and Drug Administration advisers voted yesterday. The FDA, set to make a decision by Feb. 24, isn't required to follow the panel's guidance.

Sugar Defies OLPC Cutbacks
After the OLPC project announced it would cut financial support for Sugar, developers have taken the future of the learning platform into their own hands.
In January the One Laptop Per Child project had to layoff 30 members of staff due to financial difficulties. Among them were almost all of the team working on the OLPC dedicated Sugar desktop. MIT Professor and head of the project, Nicholas Negroponte, announced at the time that further development of Sugar would be left entirely in the hands of the community.
South African developer Morgan Collett, together with the Sugar Labs Marketing Team, has now posted a project status report on his blog. The project, he says, has now reached its third month of development, with almost no support from OLPC.
Good news is that all the full time developers are sticking with the project. Says Collett, "Sugar has not lost any of its full-time core developers as a consequence of OLPC's layoffs: All of the core team will stay around as unpaid volunteers while we're looking for new ways to finance their full-time contribution." Collett mentions 20 contributors who are helping with engineering resources and travel costs, tendency rising. The project is determined to realize the planned March release of the next version, Sucrose 0.84, considering this a yardstick of their new independence.
At the same time, Sugar is working to establish local labs and grassroots organizationsto help fill the gaps the OLPC has left behind.
Sugar LabsIn fact, Sugar Labs spun out from OLPC almost one year ago. Since then we have made significant progress, including a major release last fall and a new release on Sugar in March 09--stay tuned!! We've also worked with the upstream Linux distros to package Sugar as part of their standard distributions. And we have produced LiveUSB versions of Sugar--"Sugar on a Stick"--to make it easier for teachers and parents to try Sugar in their classrooms or at home. New Sugar activities are coming on-line almost daily. Regarding the impact of the OLPC layoffs on Sugar, in fact it is not at all as described by Mr. Negroponte. Only two of the 30+ people who were laid-off from OLPC were working on Sugar (for their day job)--this hardly qualifies as "most". We at Sugar Labs are saddened by the OLPC cutbacks, but as your article suggests, Sugar is thriving despite the hard times being experienced at OLPC.

As the tree falls, So Shall it lie.?
This question has been answered · 22 replies
Anonymous:"As the tree falls, So Shall it lie." Does anybody know the meaning of this proverb? I think that it might be from the bible, however, I don't know it's meaning.
Approved answer (verified by Mister Micawber)
A quick Google search reveals that "As the tree falls, so shall it lie" is actually a Chinese proverb. I guess it means "things are the way they are".
Perhaps one of our Chinese users could clarify this?
You might like to compare these "tree words" by Virgil. As the twig is bent, so the tree inclines.
ie If you bend the baby tree, the tree will grow in that direction and thus the adult tree will be bent in the same way. The way you begin as a child will be the way you are when you are an adult.
Best wishes, Clive
Anonymous:yes, it is from the bible and I am trying to find book and verse. I found it once and have misplaced it.
It is telling us that we can accept Christ as our Savior any time during our life, and God will forgive and make us once of his children.
When we die, whatever we were at the time of death is what will decide on heaven or hell.
Once we are dead, (as the tree falls) it is to late for us to turn around(So shall it lay."
Anonymous:Virgel got that line from the bilbe, Clive
Check it out.
However, I think the statement, as written, does seem to be a Chinese proverb.
Added material:
However, the proverb seems to also exist in English via the Bible text. It may originate with this translation of the theological writings of Ladislaus Boros.
As the tree falls, so shall it lie;
As a man lives, so shall he die;
As a man dies, so shall he be;
Through all the aeons of eternity.
AnonymousVirgel got that line from the bilbe, CliveCan you give proof of this statement?
Anonymous:You can compare a tree to a man. If a tree falls & dies it is as it was in life. If it was good then it dies good if it was corrupted with diease etc so it will be when it dies.
Therefore if a man dies corrupt thout God, there is no changing that he doesn't get up & try it again he dies corrupt. If a man dies righteously, he will be righteous in death. So when the Lord raises all men from all time to stand before the judgment seat there is no changing who & what you are. There are no do overs no reincarnation.
You need to get it right while there is still breath in your body & live a life that is true & right according to the word of God you can't wait till the last minute & try to get it right it won't work.

Greenwood advanced in the Class 4A Whiteland Sectional on Tuesday with a 59-27 first-round girls basketball win against the host Warriors.
But Whiteland didn't make things easy for the Woodmen despite what the score indicates.
Whiteland forced Greenwood into 18 turnovers while committing 16 itself and had all but one Woodmen starter saddled with two fouls at halftime. Greenwood starting point guard Holly Hoopingarner had three.
In spite of that, Greenwood held a 27-12 halftime lead and asserted itself even more with a 12-0 run to start the fourth quarter. The Woodmen shot 44.7 percent from the floor (21 of 47), but Whiteland managed to hit only 18.4 percent of its field-goal tries (7 of 38).
"In spurts, we played well, but we need to do a better job taking care of the ball and with our shot selection," Greenwood coach Debbie Guckenberger said. "We had way too many turnovers, and that's a credit to (Whiteland). They played hard."
While Greenwood might have struggled in those areas, it dominated the rebounding, grabbing 41 boards to Whiteland's 21.
Woodmen forward Megan Overton led everyone with nine rebounds, while Sarah McLeod corralled eight despite sitting out the second quarter with two fouls. Every Greenwood starter pulled down at least five rebounds, which also enabled the Woodmen to take nine more shots than the Warriors.
"That was big, especially in the second half," Guckenberger said. "We got a lot of putbacks. Whiteland was outsized. A couple of times, they were in position. We were just bigger."
Hoopingarner overcame her foul trouble to score 14 points and grab five rebounds. Brittany Gray took over in the paint in the fourth quarter, when she scored 10 of her game-high 16 points.
McLeod added eight points, Madison Renfro scored seven off the bench and Sydney Hite contributed six points for Greenwood (9-11).
The Woodmen advance to play New Palestine (9-10) in Friday's second semifinal game, which will start at approximately 7:30 p.m. The Dragons won the regular-season match-up between the teams 55-47 on Feb. 1.
Meanwhile, Whiteland's season ended with a 1-20 record. Warriors coach Kyle Shipp was happy with his team's defensive effort Tuesday but admitted poor shooting and rebounding was its downfall.
"We felt like we got good looks, we just couldn't knock down shots," Shipp said. "We had them in foul trouble. Our goal was to hit 20 free throws, and we thought if we did that, it would be a decent game in the fourth quarter."
Instead, Whiteland also struggled from the free-throw line, hitting just 13 of 31 (41.9 percent). Greenwood, meanwhile, connected on 72.7 percent of its shots from the line (16 of 22).
"Our kids played hard. We just need to make better decisions and take care of the basketball if we're going to win Friday," Guckenberger said.

A cold, penetrating rain had been falling for a few days. Such rains were not unusual in Auschwitz. I opened the the gate of the infirmary very quietly so as not to disturb the performance and listened. "Plop, plop," -- the drops continued falling without a stop. Outside it was dark and quiet. The lights on the ramp of the station were out. It had been a few days since the last trainload of victims had arrived at Auschwitz. Perhaps, I thought, they would not bring any more victims here.
I sat down in the corner to watch the performance. It was Sunday. Since everything was at peace this day, Irena had organized a cultural evening in the infirmary. She had planned an evening of dancing -- without men, of course. But then, it is possible to dance without men, too.
Irena was an actress. Although she was originally from Poland, she had lived in Paris some fourteen years before being shipped to Auschwitz. She was tall, strong, and straight. I remember that when I first met her it was hard for me to believe that she was an actress. Looking at her, you would absolutely never guess that she was an actress. The girls who knew her swore that once she got on the stage she changed so completely that you would never recognize her. She was particularly wonderful, they said, as a character actress.
In Auschwitz we often organized such friendly get-togethers. I remember that for the first few months of my stay here those get- togethers struck me as being indecent. How was it possible that we could sing while the sky above was red with the flames of the crematoria.
"How can you joke, dance, and tell stories," I asked, "when we are enveloped in a sea of suffering, pain, and tears?"
"You will get used to it. Then you will understand." So said the old prisoners.
One evening, as I was returning from the infirmary to the barracks for the night, I bumped into a group of girls from the lei-

Deputy pleads no contest, will retire
ST. ALBANS A Burlington deputy police chief who was charged with drunken driving has agreed to plead no contest to a reduced charge of negligent operation and will leave the police department.
Andi Higbee of Colchester is expected to be fined $500 when he is sentenced in April, according to a plea agreement.
Police Chief Mike Schirling said that Higbee plans to retire. The agreement allows him to resume driving. He also will be expected to undergo alcohol screening.
The plea averted the second day of a hearing to consider a defense request to dismiss the DUI charge.
I do feel it was an appropriate resolution, said Vermont Superior Court Judge Marty Maley.
Higbee was placed on paid administrative leave following his arrest in July in Sheldon. He returned to work in September and was assigned to non-law enforcement duties until his case was resolved.MORE IN This Just InThe National Retail Federation, based in Washington, D.C., recently named Rep.Peter Welch, D-Vt.
