We talk about letter writing a lot. And as a result, we get lots of questions.
Lately, questions like these have been coming up more frequently:
- Why, in this technologically advanced age, are we still relying on handwritten "snail mail" as our main form of sponsor-child communication?
- If my child has access to a computer, why can't I e-mail him directly?
- Why doesn't Compassion have a Facebook page or Web site for every child development center?
- We have the technology for so many things. Why doesn't Compassion use it?
And I thought the questions deserve some attention. So, here you go.
Because we want you to have the best relationship possible with your sponsored child, and your questions are reasonable ones, we are currently considering a few technology-driven options to help you connect more directly with your child.
And we're planning to test some of them very soon.
But as we move forward in making the options available to you, we do so with several questions in mind.
- What potential impact could the technology have on the safety of the children in our programs?
- How could giving a third-party site or application access to our database place your personal information at risk?
- How will our processes be affected (e.g., translation, tracking and training)?
- Can we administer the program efficiently, cost effectively and consistently across cultures, languages and dissimilar rural and urban infrastructures in dissimilar countries?
- Can we deliver what we promise? Can we guarantee integrity?
We definitely want to give you better, faster and more frequent communication with your child. And we're working to make it happen.
It's just that we're doing it deliberately and carefully so we can be sure it's done well, done right and done with the best interests of the children in mind.
Thanks for your patience.

Our common sense step-by-step approach has saved our clients millions of $ over the years. Let our 15 years of experience work for you - today.
What is a Trademark?
A "registered trademark", or ®, refers to a name, slogan or logo that has been officially registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office - USPTO. Each State also offers trademark protection from their Secretaries of State offices.
Registering a trademark is greatly beneficial to any business because it publicly states that your trademark is registered with the USPTO, where people can find you and avoid using your intellectual property.
By registering a trademark you will gain exclusive rights to your name, slogan or logo AND a broader array of potentially similar uses - in sound, appearance and meaning within your industry, than if you merely use your intellectual property without a trademark, or otherwise known as having first use Common Law rights.
Prior to filing for a Federal trademark, comprehensive research of existing and pending State trademarks, USPTO Federal trademarks and Common Law uses and analysis of each is needed to ensure that you are not infringing upon another company's trademark or Common Law rights. You need to know if your name, slogan and/or logo is truly legally available BEFORE you file.
The USPTO and every State limits their research to their own databases only. Your intellectual property may turn out to be clear from their own limited research, and it will take the USPTO up to 6 months to do their research, State internal research varies widely - but this is far from what you need. You need to know if your proposed name, slogan or logo is legally clear today, before use, before filing, for a trademark. Only comprehensive research will determine legal availability.
In the USA, there are 2 million Federal trademarks, 1 million State trademarks and 13 million Common Law uses. So, simply filing a Federal trademark, without comprehensive research means your name will never be researched against
14 million out of 16 million names, slogans and logos that exist before you start your business. You need to comprehensively research your intellectual property BEFORE actual commercial use and filing at the USPTO.
There is a marketing advantage to having a trademark too! Businesses that show the Federal trademark ® symbol for their name, logo or slogan are widely considered to be more credible, established and professional. The ® symbol attracts more sales.

Domain Names, Incorporation, Copyrights, Logo Designs and Patents and
how they relate to trademarks - our specialty! Let us help you understand
how trademarks are important to you! Call us for a free consultation!
If you have an existing Trademark or just Common Law rights merely by using your business name, slogan or logo over time - be aware that you will give rights to another business simply by doing nothing for 5 years. Acquiescence happens by doing nothing, and not enforcing your rights over a 5 year period. To prevent this disaster, we urge periodic comprehensive research or our year round monitoring service. We offer both. Call us to discuss!
Having a trademark will achieve added protection against other companies' future names, slogans or logos that are conflicting or even merely similar in sound, appearance or meaning, as well as ownership rights as protected by the USPTO. Having a trademark makes it much easier to protect your intellectual property, when you can simply show
your registered or pending USPTO trademark.
A trademark is like having a silent attorney actively protecting your intellectual property 24 hours a day! Trademarks last 5 years, and are indefinitely renewable in the 5th year, then the 10th year, then every 10 years after that. You still need to actively protect your intellectual property, because the USPTO will not do that for you. We offer a monitoring service or we recommend that you should run your comprehensive research every 2 years to find infringing companies to your property.

Every grain of sand is a jewel waiting to be discovered. That's what Dr. Gary Greenberg found when he first turned his microscope on beach sand. Gemlike minerals, colorful coral fragments, and delicate microscopic shells reveal that sand comprises much more than tiny beige rocks.
Author and photographer Dr. Gary Greenberg is a visual artist who creatively combines art with science. He has a Ph.D. in biomedical research from University College London and holds 17 patents for high-definition 3-D light microscopes. Dr. Greenberg lives in Haiku, Hawaii.
Carl Sagan famously remarked "the total number of stars in the universe is greater than all the grains of sand on all the beaches on the planet Earth." It is estimated that the total number of 'all' grains of sand on the whole planet could be approximately 2000 billion billion. Scientists still believe there are more stars in the Universe. hassers.blogspot.com
And as to planets:
If a grain of sand represented an entire galaxy; so each grain of sand, or galaxy, contains 100's of billions of stars, you would need to fill six rooms full of sand to contain all the galaxies in the known universe. If you drilled a tiny hole in one of the grains of sand, 'our Milky Way universe,' that would be the area that we have been capable of seaching for planets so far. About 900 planets have been discovered so far... directedplay.com

I think Milan's new book is THE DUTCHESS WAR, postponed from September to October and now November. Anybody know anything about when it actually will be out--and how firm that date is?

does anyone have anymore information about a definite release date? on her website it just said between November 15-22.

I don't think that Courtney Milan would mind if I posted her reply to me, last week, about when this book was coming out. When she notifies me, I'll let everybody know.
She wrote:
"I don't know, exactly. A lot is going to depend on how quickly the proofing gets done, and that's something I have no control over on my end. I'm still tweaking here, too. I promise that I'm getting it done as quickly as I can, but if I had an exact date, I would already have announced it.
I know I should be better at updating--but at this point, I don't have running water in my kitchen, and I have to have my priorities. I have to choose between writing regularly and not updating, or taking my updating time from my writing time. Once a lot of this other stuff is squared away I should have more time to take care of details, but right now, I have to focus on the things that have to come first.
For THE HEIRESS EFFECT, I'm not even going to try to predict a date. Whatever I tell you will undoubtedly be wrong. If you throw a dart at a calendar for 2013, you'll get as good an estimate as anything I come up with."

Thanks for posting that, Lynda X.
On the bright side, sometimes I miss the hunting for books: the internet gives you such certainty about what's out and when, that you don't often get that unexpected joy that you used to get when you stumbled across an unlooked for release.
So perhaps the frustration of not knowing an exact date means we get a concomitant thrill when the book suddenly appears.

Okay, firs the bad news. The book NOW is supposed to be out the first week in Dec. The good news: there is supposed to be a novella coming out later in Dec. It's tied in with Christmas (I think), so that means that it has to be out this December (I think).

Never mind. Here's a link for it on Amazon. For some reason it didn't come up on a search.

Class Of 2014, Lori Dauphiny, Honored Following Open Win Over Clemson
There will be time to focus on the future — May 18, in particular. On Saturday, the seventh-ranked open women closed the regular season with a victory, and then honored both the past four years of the Class of 2014 and the past 25 years of head coach Lori Dauphiny.
Princeton defeated another set of Tigers (Clemson) in all four races Saturday morning during Senior Day on Lake Carnegie. The varsity eight improved to 8-2 on the year by finishing in 6:06.8, more than 13 seconds faster than Clemson. The 2V finished its own undefeated season by defeating Clemson by nearly 19 seconds.
The varsity four, which has shown strong improvement since its near comeback win against Yale, picked up its third straight victory by about six seconds over Clemson. The third varsity eight won by more than 24 seconds to earn its seventh win of the season.
It was the perfect day, and the perfect conditions, for the senior class to complete their racing careers on Lake Carnegie.
"Rowing for Princeton is truly a privilege," senior Kathryn Irwin said. "We have one of the most beautiful boathouses in the country and our own lake all on campus. On top of that, the boathouse is home to an extremely supportive rowing community including athletes, coaches, faculty and alumni. I could not be happier to win my final race on Carnegie surrounded by my teammates and coaches who have taught me so much and helped me develop as an athlete and a person over the past four years."
Following the race, Princeton honored its Class of 2014 (pictured, above), and then dedicated a boat to head coach Lori Dauphiny, the two-time National Coach of the Year. Dauphiny has led Princeton to five Ivy League Championships, including two of the last three, and her varsity boat won the NCAA Championship in both 2006 and 2011. Her presence was felt in the 2012 London Games, when five former open rowers competed in the Olympics.
"Lori has been a huge part of my Princeton career and I would not be the rower I am today without her coaching and guidance," senior Maggie Cochrane said. "She has cemented an amazing legacy of coaching here at Princeton and I am so fortunate to have been able to develop under her expertise. I don't think I would have been able to reach this level of athleticism without her and her dedication to our team and our success is unwavering."
As for the Class of 2014, Princeton honored its 13 members, including a large number who will be competing in the Tigers top four boats at the upcoming Ivy League Championships.
"The fact that the senior class is so large really speaks to the girls who came before us," Irwin said. "The classes of 2011, 2012, and 2013 all set the bar high in terms of dedication to the sport. They also fostered an inclusive and supportive environment on the team, setting an example for us both on and off the water.
"Today was a special day–the team stepped up and raced ferociously to honor the senior class and Lori," she added. "I am definitely soaking it up this weekend, but on Monday all our attention turns to gearing up for a successful Ivy League Championship."

Laney High teacher named Southeast region teacher of the year
Published: Friday, December 6, 2013 at 11:17 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 6, 2013 at 11:17 a.m.
A New Hanover County teacher is now on the short list for the state's teacher of the year.
Photo Galleries
Melissa Gillespie, who teaches civics and economics and U.S. history at Laney High School, was honored at the school Friday as the teacher of the year for the state's Southeast region. Gillespie, who was named New Hanover County's teacher of the year in June, was chosen as the top teacher from 13 counties in Southeastern North Carolina. She'll now compete against eight other teachers for the state honor in May.
Gillespie learned about the honor Friday morning in a surprise event at the school. She was confused, surprised and considered it a "huge honor" to receive the award.
"Knowing I decided to do something that makes a difference – it's a big deal," she said.
Gillespie has taught at Laney since 2002. Friday, she told a crowd of Laney students and parents and her own family that the school had a strong impact on her.
"It was really Laney that's made me the teacher that I am today," Gillespie said.
But speakers Friday said she's been an excellent teacher from the start. New Hanover County Schools' deputy superintendent Rick Holliday, a former Laney principal, hired Gillespie.
"As I told you when I hired you, you walk with a purpose," Holliday told Gillespie. "And it's important that people see that purpose."
Teachers are nominated by coworkers and go through panel interviews to be chosen as the teacher of the year at the county and state levels.

Coffee Talk Tuesday - Velonews Analysis of USAC on grassroots growth
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
This week's Coffee Talk deals with probably one of the most commented stories of 2011, the integration of ACA with USA Cycling. Velonews takes a look at this affect of assimilation of local associations and their affect on grassroots cycling
A few weeks ago VeloNews did and amazing spread on USAC titled, Analysis: Is USAC feeding grass roots, or trampling them?. Now, over a year into the USAC/ACA integration how do we feel? Below are some clips from the VeloNews story
In early June 2012, Tom Danielson, Georgia Gould and Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski were among thousands of competitors at Vail's Teva Mountain Games, a multi-sport event that includes bike racing, kayaking, rock climbing and trail running.
All three cyclists made the most of their trip to the Colorado high country, winning their respective races and collecting the accompanying $3,000 first-place prize checks.
A few days later, fellow pro cyclist Danny Pate penned what appeared to be a semi-sarcastic tweet, asking: "Hey @tomdanielson does @usacycling or @UCI_cycling know you raced the Teva Games this year, I don't think it's a UCI race?"
Fifteen days later, in what appears to have been a response at least in part prompted by Pate's tweet, USA Cycling technical director Shawn Farrell sent an email to Horgan-Kobelski, Gould and several other pro-level mountain bikers who had competed in Vail. (Danielson was not part of this group, but presumably received a separate email.) VeloNews obtained a copy of the correspondence, which read in part:
"Dear Pro Mountain Bikers: It has come to our attention that you participated in the 2012 Teva Games in a MTB discipline. This event is not sanctioned by USA Cycling. As such, a professional rider on a UCI team may not participate in it, according to UCI rule 1.2.019. The penalty for not following that rule is a fine of 50-100 Swiss francs and a one-month suspension. As this is the first documented and reported case of this in your collective instances, we will not be proceeding with any suspensions, and are choosing the low end of the fine spectrum. Therefore, please consider this your notice that you were fined. I shall leave it up to you and your teams to decide who wants to pay."
Whatever the motivations were, the ACA rejoined USAC in 2012 under its old name, the Bicycle Racing Association of Colorado, overseeing a successful, albeit more expensive, calendar of amateur bike racing in Colorado. In 2011, the cost of an ACA license, good for road, mountain, and cyclocross, was $45. In 2012, a USAC road license ($60), plus a mountain bike add-on ($30), and membership in BRAC ($25) totaled $115.
While not mandatory, the BRAC membership was necessary if a rider wanted to avoid a $5-per-race surcharge required of non-members racing BRAC races (which include nearly all the popular Colorado cyclocross races).

Clarification of UCI Rule 1.2.019 and related sanctions
Submitted by David on
To: USA Cycling Members
RE: UCI Rule 1.2.019
There has been a tremendous amount of discussion and misinformation recently in articles and forums regarding UCI rule 1.2.019, which prohibits all UCI licensed riders from competing in events that are not sanctioned by a national federation. USA Cycling received the following letter from the International Cycling Union (UCI) on March 26 to all national federations clarifying its expectations in the enforcement of rule 1.2.019. It also explains what the few possible exceptions to its rule are.
The UCI confirmed that Rule 1.2.019 and the related sanctions in 1.2.020 and 1.2.021 must apply to every UCI-recognized national federation in the world. Therefore, as a member of the International Federation, USA Cycling will comply with the direction from the UCI.
Here is the link to the UCIs direction

Joining USAC just keeps on giving. Two licenses. No more non-USAC sanctioned MTB racing or competitive charity rides on the side. The majority that voted us in certainly got it right. They're not fools. Not at all.

Gardening Articles: Care :: Pests & Problems
The Do-Good Bugs
by Whitney Cranshaw
Spined soldier bug feeds on a Mexican bean beetle larva
Insects are the most successful living organisms on the Earth. That's just one reason it makes good sense to balance one against the other, rather than trying to kill pests with poisons. It is also true that in nature there are no good or bad bugs. All are trying to make a living in the way nature programmed them. But from a gardener's perspective, some insects help and some don't. It's smart to learn about and exploit insect behaviors. In this article you'll learn how to wisely purchase and use beneficial insects.
Using insects to control other insects has a long history. Ancient Chinese records describe the construction of bamboo runways to help predatory ants move through citrus groves, and for hundreds of years Yemeni nomads brought ant colonies from the mountains to control palm pests in oases. Modern biological control began in 1888 when a small lady beetle was brought from Australia to California. This effort, organized by state and federal agencies, saved the citrus industry from the cottony cushion scale and was successfully repeated dozens of times worldwide.
There are two kinds of beneficial insects: predators and parasites. Predators eat or otherwise destroy one or more other insect pests directly. Parasites complete their life cycles in a specific host, destroying it in the process. Today there are nearly 100 mail-order companies in the United States (and more in Canada and Mexico) either producing or selling several dozen species of predatory and parasitic insects. Most of these are used in agriculture, of course, especially in greenhouses. But a few are well-known garden beneficials.
Releasing large quantities of a beneficial insect into your garden can work in several ways. Sometimes it's like a biological insecticide: The bugs you buy go straight to your pests, clean them up and then disperse or die off. Sometimes the beneficials have limited effectiveness on target pests, but then go on to establish a local population of beneficial offspring that live on from year to year, helping to reduce the background level of pests. And sometimes the good bugs consume just a few of your pests before flying away.
When we say that one of the insects described below provides control, we mean that a release can make a significant dent in the population of the target pest. Most beneficials will eat many different kinds of insects, but eating a few isn't control. Praying mantises, for example, feed on a wide range of pests but almost never serve to control outbreaks of any of them. In many instances, the beneficials will only give you partial control, so you may occasionally need sprays, too. Be careful to select a time and a material that will do minimal damage to the bugs you have bought.
Often the best strategy is simply to increase the biodiversity of your garden. "Simplify" an environment--by spraying an insecticide or by growing only one kind of plant--and problems get out of hand quicker. Make an environment more complex and problems are less likely. Accomplish this in your garden by planting a wide range of plants and by not using broad-spectrum insecticides.
Learning to use beneficial insects will make you a smarter gardener. Start by ordering some catalogs. Most suppliers provide some direction on how to use what they sell, although the quality of these details--and the prices--can vary greatly. Shop for quality as well as quantity. When you realize it's time to resort to the bug busters, it's often best to phone your order in. Most suppliers are very aware of the need to transport living cargo quickly and use express shipping when appropriate.

A 23-year-old Felton man is facing criminal charges after allegedly driving into a Harrington yard and fleeing before police arrived.
Adam T. Bowker's vehicle left the roadway and ended up getting stuck in the yard of home in the 200 block of Delaware Avenue just before 8:15 p.m. on March 7, according to Harrington Police Department spokesman Lt. Earl Brode.
Bowker reportedly fled the scene on foot, but was later identified by police, who obtained warrants for his arrest.
Bowker, who turned himself in to police on Monday, is charged with leaving the scene of a property damage accident, failure to have insurance identification in his possession, failure to have vehicle registration in his possession and inattentive driving.
He later was released on a $325 unsecured bond, Brode said.

I'm a sysadmin with a decade of Windows experience (Server, Exchange, SQL, etc. on networks large and small), and I'm looking to build up my Linux sysadmin skillset.
It seems like most of the tutorials are either for computing neophytes or seasoned Linux sysadmins. I don't need anyone to explain the OSI model, or what a file system does. I don't need instructions burning the installation media to a CD so I can boot with it.
I've got Ubuntu running on Virtualbox, and I'm looking for a tutorial that will walk me through the CLI. I want to know about how services are controlled, how apps get installed/configured, etc. I want to know what's required to get the LAMP stack up and running, securely, on a lean box without a GUI.
Any ideas?

The University of Antwerp ranks top 20 of the 50 best young universities
The University of Antwerp is ranked number 15 in the list of top 50 young universities according to Quacquerelli-Symonds (QS) World University Rankings.
The University of Antwerp was number 197 in the general Quacquerelli-Symonds (QS) World University Rankings, but was able to secure a nice number at the top when competing with only its younger counterparts. A "young" university is one that was founded only since the year 1962. The University of Antwerp was founded in 2003 – an efficient compilation of collages formerly known as RUCA, UFSIA, and UIA.
For existing only 9 years receiving the 15th ranking is an honor. The University of Antwerp was the only Belgian university eligible for ranking in the top 50 young universities, but the oldest university of our country; the KU Leuven, received an impressive ranking of 67th in the top World University Rankings.

Delaware State Police advises potential renters to use caution regarding homes advertised for rent on Craigslist and Zillow, according to a news release sent July 11.
Scammers have been using pictures of real homes, usually for sale by the owner, to create a fake rental property listing at an enticingly low price.
Victims have said that when they asked to see the property, the landlord would claim to be out of the country, but would ask for a large deposit in exchange for the keys.

text: From the outset, Martha Reeves' voice possessed an earthy, direct quality that distinguished her from other female singers - such as sultry Mary Wells or demure Diana Ross - at Motown. Her voice bore the righteous fervor of gospel and the flinty edginess of rhythm & blues, which, combined with Motown's stylized pop-soul approach, made for a compelling package. Together with her backup singers, the Vandellas, Reeves recorded a classic run of singles in the mid-Sixties, most of them composed by the songwriting team of Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland.

For two years, the art was of a roll of candy and last year, it was a child's toy movie camera.
This year, the art is a rocket ship zooming to the unknown, created by commercial artist Bill Sneed.
"Bill wanted to create something he wanted to show off that would draw attention to his business," said Slamdance Executive Director Peter Baxter. "He agreed to work closely with me to come up with a piece of art that reflected the theme of the festival."
This year's theme is No Fear, No Limits.
"Fear and limits are the scourge of the independent filmmaker," Baxter said. "So, Bill wanted to show these artists don't have fear."
The artwork is centered around a rocket that has a do-it-yourself look.
"You can see smoke coming out the back of the engine, but the pilot looks to have no fear as he travels to the outer limits," Baxter said. "That's what independent filmmaking is all about. The graphic element does stand out and we hope everyone will agree."

text: Bonnie Raitt (vocals, guitar; born November 8, 1949) When Bonnie Raitt won a phenomenal four Grammys in 1990, it came as overdue recognition for an artist who had been breaking down barriers of gender and genre since the early Seventies. Her feel for the blues was evident on her first album, Bonnie Raitt (1971), and though she's explored different kinds of material over the years -- including pop, rock and balladry -- a serious rooting in the blues has remained evident in her work. Bonnie Lynn Raitt was born in 1949 in Burbank, California. Her father, John Raitt, ...full bio

White Night
THE SETTING Idlewild Ball was the official kickoff of the social season, where Dallas' finest debutantes—Amelia Crank, Laura Rowsey and Krystal Schlegel—took their very first Texas dip of the season, turning the hyperextended curtsy into an art form on the grand staircase of the Hilton Anatole ballroom. THE SCENE The most traditional of the deb balls, Idlewild stuck to its carefully curated palette of white and green: grand-scaled garden urns overflowing with pale green and white hydrangeas, white and cream roses, white orchids and more, flanking a 5-foot-tall stage. Down these stairs, wearing traditonal white ballgowns and gloves, debs carrying bouquets of red roses made their first debut, accompanied by dapper dates in white tie. THE CROWD Idlewild President Daniel Branch, along with officers Pete Dale, Preston Evans and Chad Lavender, invited guests such as John and Natalie Lesikar, proud parents Myrna and Bob Schlegel and others to dinner and dancing to live band Cuvee, followed by an after-party in a private suite upstairs—the perfect start to the season.

Preschool and kindergarten-aged kids will love this fun take-along game that's packed with animal facts and sounds. The NG kids who tested this game loved it!
Kids can use the attached key to open the case and get to the 30-page activity booklet tucked inside. Use the magic pen to play the games and answer the quizzes, then check your answers with the electronic module. The magic ink disappears in a few hours so kids can play again and again. Or press the paw print on the electronic module to hear a fun fact about endangered animals. There's also a secret compartment underneath the activity booklet to stash small treasures away from prying eyes.
Ages 4 and up. Includes a sticker sheet of animal photos. 3 AAA batteries, included. 8"W x 9"H x 1"D.

Comments about Endangered Animal Discovery Game:
Bought for 4 year old granddaughter. She enjoyed the light to find clues but needed assistance for completing most of the activities. It's an ok toy to play together at age 4 but I don't think it has a long live play opportunity since there is only one book to work in.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
