text: The Colorplates - My Little Red Book by GreenMonkeyRecords published on 2013-04-07T06:08:47Z The Green Monkey history squad is proud to present The Colorplates, starring in the very rocking Agony and Ecstacy. The Colorplates were a Seattle band circa 1979-82, loosely connected with the art/punk scene. They were equally (though not exclusively) inspired by Ornette Coleman and the Dave Clark Five. They started life briefly as an improvisation unit, The Pigments, spent a while as The Adults and switched over to The Colorplates midstream. As The Adults, they had two previous bass players, Adam Woog (now a local author!) and Howie Wahlen. They mainly played punk joints like the Gorilla Room and the UCT Hall (with bands like Student Nurse, the Pudz and Pell Mell), mostly for friends, but occasionally for sailors. They managed to do a bit of recording (which is featured here) – none of it made it to vinyl, which was the punk rock mark of success back then. In fact, the recordings on this album have never been released – they come from a variety of recording situations with a variety of results. While every effort has been made to capture the best possible sound quality, our first concern was to paint a true picture of this obscure combination. Mission accomplished!

Literary Festival offers weekend of free readingsOctober 10,2012By Kevin O'Connor
Brattleboro boasts a long association with books, from Rudyard Kipling writing "The Jungle Book" here in the 1890s to the first U.S. edition of Harry Potter rolling off local presses a century later.
But ask today's locals for the town's biggest publishing event and they'll point you to this weekend's Brattleboro Literary Festival.
The 11th annual showcase will bring 45 authors to the hub of southeastern Vermont for a series of free programs today through Sunday.
The festival opens today at 7 p.m. with a staged reading of the 2012 Vermont Reads novella "Bull Run," a video exhibit of writer and artist collaborations, and a poetry slam judged by Harvard Review poetry editor Major Jackson.
The festival continues Friday, Saturday and Sunday with appearances by novelists, nonfiction writers and poets ranging from David Aguilar, an astronomer published by National Geographic, to Todd Zuniga, co-creator of Literary Death Match — a self-described mashup of Def Poetry Jam performance and American Idol judging.
More specifics about the following schedule is available on the website brattleboroliteraryfestival.org (all events are on Brattleboro's Main Street unless otherwise noted):
7 p.m.: New England Youth Theatre staged reading of Paul Fleischman's 2012 Vermont Reads novella "Bull Run," Brooks Memorial Library / Center for Digital Art and Write Action collaborations, Center for Digital Art, 74 Cotton Mill Hill / Poetry slam featuring University of Vermont professor Major Jackson, Landmark College Student Center Room, Putney.

I'm an Atheist. Why should I believe in a god? Which god? and why?
I'm considering god, but need a rational reason to actually believe. I would never take blind faith, as you could end up in any religion just dependant on the influence around you.
Anyway, I'm searching, but need a rational way to decide.
Please be serious 32076855
Are you serious or playing? Using the intellect, and doing research, there are numerous proofs of God, but no matter how logical the arguments are, I doubt they are persuasive.
Why? An argument appeals to the intellect. The intellect looks for observable phenomena (evidence), compares that to logical statements, listens to the voices of proponents and critics, and then analzes it himself or herself.
What's missing? Love. Love is not logical. You can't prove it ever. There's some evidence but it's largely circumstancial. No one looking outside your heart (proponents or critics) or even the Beloved can know your heart. There's no way to validate it with analysis or logical or evidence. It won't compute.
But because there's Free Will and assuming you're truly interested OP, then:

Knock yourself out! Even if you disagree, they are elegant to read and study.
But you are comparing love, a natural human emotion with more evidence than just circumstancial as you say, with a supreme deity. That, does not make sense.
Anonymous Coward 23229603
Well first, you asked for rational ways, so I provided a philosophical look (Metaphysics) at the existance of a supreme being. Before you discount anything, there's about 100 pages of logical reading, so I know you have read it yet.
Second, while not all spiritual systems were relational, most were. Certainly monotheism is. The realtionship of YHWH is one based upon Love, and hence relevent.
In YHWH there are two main principles. 1) God is the basis for Being or Existance. 2) God is the personification of Love. As such, you can't remove the Love element.
Please verify you're human:

This application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/950,403 filed Jul. 18, 2007 herein incorporated by reference.
The present application relates to an avalanche photodiode (APD) having an avalanche multiplication structure to suppress edge breakdown. The present invention further relates to a method of making an avalanche multiplication structure in an avalanche photodiode with edge breakdown suppression.
Avalanche photodiode structures that have separate absorption and multiplication layers (SAM-APDs) can provide electrical output signals with high fidelity (i.e. low noise). For use in telecommunications applications, the APD is electrically biased such that the electrical response is substantially linear with optical power. Although the APD requires higher operating voltages, the internal gain of the APD provides a significant increase in receiver sensitivity compared to a PIN photodiode. This is important for realizing high speed optical receivers for high data rate communications networks.
A critical feature of APD design is to maintain gain uniformity across the active region of the device. The active region comprises a p-n junction formed by diffusion in the multiplication layer. However, the edge curvature of the diffusion profile causes locally elevated electric fields at the edge of the active region. The tendency for increase of electric fields at the edge of the active region is a basic property of the physics of finite-size planar p-n junctions. As seen in a prior art diode structure shown in
The p-n junction is formed by opening a window, such as by photolithography, in a passivation layer above an intrinsic multiplication layer. Solid or gas sources are used to deliver a p-type dopant, such as zinc to the window, which is diffused under high heat into the crystal lattice of the multiplication layer. Because the flow of dopant molecules is both lateral and transverse a curved edge region is formed underneath the edges of the window. This curved portion of the p-n junction has a higher electric field than the planar portions in the center of the window.
These increased edge fields lead to larger gain at the edge of the active region which causes a poor gain uniformity and premature breakdown, typically referred to as "edge breakdown". The poor gain uniformity has markedly deleterious effects on device performance, particularly the noise performance and bandwidth of the APD. For practical SAM-APDs, the breakdown-voltage uniformity across the entire active region should be within 5 to 10 percent, and preferably within one percent. The breakdown-voltage is the voltage at which the p-n junction is sufficiently reverse-biased to conduct a large current arising from a self-sustaining avalanche process, even in the absence of continuous optical power.
Reduction of the electric field intensity at the edge of the active region is a key for alleviating edge breakdown. One published technique for controlling edge breakdown in planar junctions is through controlling the diffused pn-junction profile (also called diffusion profile). Ultimately, the key to suppress the edge breakdown is to have a smooth transition profile at the edge of the active region.
As illustrated in
Yang et al. describe a method to form a step-like diffusion profile to suppress the edge breakdown in a single diffusion process step in U.S. Pat. No. 6,492,239. Before diffusion, a 0.3 um step in the InP is formed through wet chemical etching. However, in use the etch depth and sidewall curvature is very difficult to control by wet chemical etching. The diffused pn-junction profile strongly depends on a predetermined depth and curvature of etching. The alternative method is dry etching which can control the etch depth and the sidewall profile much better. But dry etching damages the InP surface severely and the surface condition/reconstruction is critical to achieve a repeatable diffusion profile.
Accordingly, a method of forming a smooth edge transition without a sharp curvature in the diffusion profile in a SAM-APD that will further lower electric fields in the edge of the active region remains highly desirable. An APD exhibiting improved gain uniformity across the active region of the device is equally desired.
The present invention has found that an avalanche photodiode can provide enhanced gain uniformity by tailoring the diffused p-n junction profile. The tailoring is achieved by a two stage doping process incorporating a solid source diffusion in combination with conventional gas source diffusion. The solid source diffusion material is selected such that the solubility of the dopant is higher in the solid source diffusion material compared to the multiplication layer material. The solid source material is patterned so that is has a finite lateral extent. Prior to a first diffusion step, a window is created that exposes the multiplication layer material and the solid source material. As shown in
The solid source also comprises a material which is lattice matched or at least compatible with the crystal structure growth for epitaxial growth on the multiplication layer. The solid diffusion source can additionally serve as a contact layer for the completed device. In a preferred embodiment, a thin InGaAs slab of finite lateral extent is selected as a finite solid source for the second diffusion into the InP multiplication layer to smooth the transition between the first and second diffusion profile.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a separate absorption and multiplication structure avalanche photodiode (SAM-APD) comprising:
an epitaxial layer structure grown on an n-doped substrate in order as follows:
an n-doped buffer layer;
an unintentionally doped absorption layer;
a grading layer;
an n-doped field control layer;
an unintentionally doped multiplication layer, including a diffused p-n junction having a diffusion profile and an active region comprising a diffusion region in the multiplication layer; and
a solid source material layer;
the device further comprising:
a p-contact applied in electrical contact with the active region;
a light input window; and
an n-contact in electrical contact with the n-doped substrate,
wherein the diffusion profile of the p-n junction comprises a smooth edge transition for suppressing edge breakdown.
In an aspect of the invention the solid source material layer comprises a material having a solubility to a dopant that is at least five times higher than a solubility of the multiplication layer to the dopant.
Thus a further aspect of the present invention provides a SAM-APD as defined above, wherein the active region comprises an edge zone, an intermediate zone and a central zone arranged concentrically in monotonically increasing depth, and dopant concentration.
In embodiments of the invention, a method of making a diffused p-n junction in the fabrication of a separate amplification and multiplication (SAM) avalanche photodiode (APD) comprises the steps of:
growing a thin layer of solid source material on a multiplication layer;
etching the solid source material to a dimension having a diameter Dint, exposing the multiplication layer around its edge;
depositing a first protection layer over the exposed multiplication layer and solid source material;
etching the first protection layer to open a first diffusion window having a diameter De larger than Dint, exposing the solid source material and a surrounding edge zone of the multiplication layer;
conducting a first diffusion step by providing a source of dopant in an inert gas carrier over the surfaces exposed in the first diffusion window, and applying heat to cause the dopant to diffuse into the crystal lattice of the multiplication layer in the edge zone, and into the solid source in an intermediate and central zone;
depositing a second protection layer over the first diffusion window;
etching the second protection layer to expose a second diffusion window having a diameter Dc smaller than Dint positioned concentrically over the solid source material;
conducting a second diffusion step by providing a source of dopant over the solid source material exposed in the second diffusion window, and applying heat to cause dopant diffused in the multiplication layer to migrate deeper into the multiplication layer in the edge zone, and to cause dopant diffused in the solid source material to migrate into the multiplication layer in the intermediate and central zone in greater concentration and deeper than in the edge zone, and to cause ions introduced through the second diffusion window to migrate into the multiplication layer in the central zone in greater concentration and deeper than in the intermediate zone,
The method of making a diffused p-n junction as defined above, wherein the multiplication layer is selected from the group consisting of InP and GaAs and the solid source material is selected from the group consisting of InGaAs and AlGaAs.
The method of making a diffused p-n junction as defined above, wherein a solid source material of InGaAs has a thickness of 50-500 nm.
Further features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, taken in combination with the appended drawings, in which:
It will be noted that throughout the appended drawings, like features are identified by like reference numerals.
The present invention provides an SAM-APD having an avalanche multiplication structure to suppress edge breakdown. The schematic structure is shown in
The edge breakdown is suppressed by providing a diffusion profile which decreases gradually both in depth and concentration from a center region to a peripheral edge region. This graded and tailored diffusion profile is created by the drive-in diffusion from the limited solid source, preferably of InGaAs. The limited solid source slab has a diameter smaller than the first diffusion window and larger than the second diffusion window to provide gradual tapering of the diffusion between the two. A structure including an InGaAs slab to tailor the diffusion profile is not only applied to front-illuminated APD, but also applied to back-illuminated APD.
A back-illuminated APD 200 in accordance with the present invention is shown in
A related concept is the use of "floating" guard rings 33, as shown in
The method of forming the diffusion profile 114 is illustrated in the process flow of
In the central zone, Region IIB, diffusion from an infinite source can be expressed as
In edge zone and intermediate zone, region I and IIA, diffusion from a limited source can be expressed as
where N0 is the surface concentration which is determined by Zn solubility in the material. The solubility of Zn in InGaAs is 10 times higher than that in InP. Therefore the surface concentration is much higher in region IIA than that in region I. As result, the diffusion depth of region IIA is greater than the diffusion depth of region I. The depth of region IIB, is selected by time and concentration control of the second diffusion to be deeper than region IIA, as shown in the graph in
Other material combinations can achieve the profile tailoring advantage as disclosed if the material A for the multiplication layer and the material B for the slab layer are lattice matched, or if not lattice matched, can be grown with good material quality, and the difference of the dopant solubility between these two materials is large. The solubility of material B should be about 5 times or more greater than material A. Alternative materials include InP or GaAs as the multiplication layer, and InGaAs or AlGaAs as the slab. Other dopants include Cadmium, Carbon, Magnesium and Beryllium. APDs can be based on GaAs substrate material as well as InP.
The embodiment(s) of the invention described above is(are) intended to be exemplary only. The scope of the invention is therefore intended to be limited solely by the scope of the appended claims.

Cannes, France– A campaign pairing Bing with the launch of Jay-Z's autobiography "Decoded" has won a Grand Prix Lion in the Outdoor category, in the first of what could be many Lions for the Droga5-created effort this week.
While "Decode Jay-Z With Bing" was based on an out-of-home concept, its entry point and much of the experience played out online.
Each of the book's 320 pages was printed and installed in a different spot across 13 major cities. Locations were selected based on the content of each page, so that a section dealing with Brooklyn would be installed in that borough, UK in London, and so on. They appeared on media as varied as rooftops, bus stops, a Cadillac, leather jacket linings, and restaurant plates.
Droga5 then created a race of sorts, seeding clues about the location of pages on Twitter, radio, and Facebook. Users were driven to bing.com/jayz, where they used Bing search to decipher successive clues that led them to a specific location. Using Bing Maps, players were told precisely where the page was. The first fans on the scene texted a code to expose the page to the whole community.
Over one month in October and November 2010, Droga5 seeded 400 clues, exposing 5 to 10 pages of the book per day. By month's end players had assembled the entire book online before it hit stores.
The campaign drove an 11.7 percent increase in visits to Bing while it was live, according to Microsoft's internal numbers. Average engagement per player topped 11 minutes. While the campaign was live, Jay-Z grew his Facebook "likes" by 1 million.

Very easy to install. I love the way it looks and feel. I enjoy looking at it and have had alot of compliments on the way it looks. Well worth the money.

Purchased the 62 piece kit for my 2015 F150. All pieces fit well and were easy to install-proper cleaning first is integral, and take your time installing. There were several pieces that did not apply to my vehicle so they went unused, but there were also some areas of the truck where the kit should have included pieces for, such as the power door lock bezels, power seat control areas, the upper door panel and around the headlight control. Looks great but wish it was a little cheaper.

I wanted to upgrade my 2012 f150 door panels to look like the lariat and king ranch edition. After a lot of research I found this product. Although a little pricy you really get a quality product and if you select factory match it looks like it came from FORD.

HUNTER: Earl Amandus Hunter January 9th, 1924 (Kaleida, MB) - January 2, 2014 (Morden, MB). Earl passed away peacefully at Boundary Trails Health Centre on January 2, 2014, just one week shy of his 90th birthday. Earl was born on the home farm near Kaleida, the youngest of seven children born to George and Christina (Simms) Hunter, where he was raised and worked with his father. He was predeceased by his first wife, Jean (Dickson) Hunter, his parents and siblings May (Kinsman), Violet (Brown), Albert, George, Charlie and Margaret (Mitchell). He is survived by his second wife, Ruth Frith, Earl and Jeans family of 5 and their families; Rodney and wife Colleen Hunter of Calgary Grandchildren Michael & Blair (Emily); Janet and husband Bob Boyd of Pilot Mound Grandchildren Lindy (Darcy) Davis, Great Grandchildren McKenna, Leah, and Gavin of Portage La Prairie; Marnie (Tyler) Butler and Great Grandson Linkyn of Portage La Prairie; Grandson Darren (Kara) Boyd and Great Grandchildren Mason and Ryker of Calgary. Robin and husband Sam Robinson of Binscarth, Grandchildren Kristin (Dave) Barrett, Great Grandchildren Morgan and Hunter of Virden, Lindsay (Justin) Great Grandson Hayden of Virden; Bill and wife Lois Hunter of Powell River B.C. and Granddaughter Amanda of Edmonton; Daughter Cindy of Manitou. As with many men of his generation, he answered the call to serve his country, along with brothers George & Charlie, during the Second World War. In 1943, at age nineteen, he enlisted in the Canadian Army and was sent to England where he served in France, Holland and Belgium as a member of The Calgary Highlanders. He was later posted to the Queens Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada and saw service with occupation forces in Germany, returning home in 1946. In his retirement he returned to Europe for the 60th anniversary of D Day, which was a real highlight of his life. He always said he wanted to return to Europe to see the countryside when it hadn't been destroyed by war. Earl was a lifetime member of the Manitou Legion Branch 21. After his military service Earl obtained his mechanical papers and worked at C.P. Moores Garage and later Pembina Motors. He also operated a Bulk fuel business for The British American Oil Company and, later, for Gulf Oil and Petro Canada, until his retirement in 1988. Dad was a very hard working man and a well respected business man in his home community of Manitou. Family and community were very important to Earl. He was very supportive of any activities his children participated in. He was involved in the Kinsman Club, past president of the Manitou Branch 21 Royal Canadian Legion, long serving treasurer of the Anglican Vestry, founding member of the Manitou Curling Club, member of Manitou Duck Club. He enjoyed his retirement years by travelling extensively, enjoying many new hobbies such as golfing, bowling, playing cribbage and pool at the friendship centre. After Jean passed away, Dad found companionship with Ruth and they enjoyed many years together. In the last number of years Earl was affected by Parkinson's disease, which he dealt with, with great strength and courage. He was a great supporter of the local chapter of the Parkinson's Society, and attended local chapter meetings... Rest in peace Dad, your work is done, you were much loved and you have left behind many footprints. An Anglican Funeral Service will be held on Saturday 11 January 2014 at 2:00 p.m. at St. Andrews United Church in Manitou. Donations in memory of Earl can be made to St .Marys Anglican Church, c/o Leanne Lea Box 313 Manitou ROG 1G0 or the Parkinson's Society of Manitoba or a charity of one's choice.

CROSS: Thomas Stanley Cross of the Griswold area died December 24, 2013 in Fairview Home, age 82. Iris, his wife of 50 years; daughters Beverly (Mepunga, Australia), and Marion (Calgary); sons-in-law Andrew Holloway and Bill Irsa; and grandchildren Jack and Janie Holloway, and Wyatt Irsa, will miss him forever. Stans siblings: Jean, Win, Archie, Joe, John, Evans, and families; as well as a multitude of friends, will miss Stans cheeky grin, readiness to lend a hand, and his quiet generosity. He worked on the family farm from an early age, driving the tractor for his Dad at the age of seven, but he didn't complain. He loved a good laugh, more often than not at his own expense, and he was a fine mimic. When he threw back his head and laughed, it made you smile inside. Dad was respected by neighbours and friends, and was a pallbearer more often than we can remember. He helped to dig graves at the Griswold Cemetery for many years, and helped at the curling rink to make ice and haul water. He used his bulldozer to clear snow in Griswold and area, and later cleared bush with it. He helped others with farm work whenever and however he could.Stan was born March 6, 1931 to Marion and Jack Cross, in Woodrow SK in the house that Jack built. The Cross family moved to the farm north of Griswold in 1937, and Stan worked the family grain and beef farm the rest of his life. He took a short mechanical course in Edmonton in 1952 and used the skills he learned to fix all matter of machinery. Almost every summer Stan could be found in the workshop, taking a motor out of a tractor and repairing it. He created a hoist out of steel beams to help lift tractor motors out. Stan was known for his fiery temper, and we could often hear him cussing from across the road. He mellowed with age, but still loved to make wisecracks up until a few weeks ago. There are not many farmers around Griswold that Stan hadn't helped at some point. He was often called upon by friends to fix or weld everything from lawn mowers and rototillers (he hated both passionately), vehicles, and all manner of farm machinery. He could put his hand to many things but as he was quick to admit, not any of them real well. He dabbled at curling, welding, carpentry, basic plumbing and electrical work. He loved simple things in life - spring crocuses, newborn calves running in the spring sunshine, a new National Geographic, a trip to Canadian Tire, and a beer with a friend. In 2010, Dad was diagnosed with vascular dementia, which robbed us of the man we knew. Dad never wanted to be a burden in any way, so although we mourn his passing, we are relieved he is at peace. A Celebration of Stans Life was held at the Brockie Donovan Chapel on Friday, January 3, 2014 at 2:30 p.m. with Marianne Whyte officiating. If you so wish, donations can be made to the Burrowing Owl Recovery Program. While cutting hay, Stan inadvertently killed many of these small owls, and it always bothered him. This program works to re-establish owls, and that would have pleased Dad. Manitoba Burrowing Owl Recovery Program, Box 508, Deloraine, MB, R0M 0M0, email@example.com

BERARD: Dorothy Rose Berard (nee Novak) passed away on January 1, 2014 at Brandon Regional Hospital. In accordance with her wishes, her remains will be interred next to the grave of her deceased husband, Gerry Berard, and a Funeral Memorial Mass will be celebrated at St. Benedicts Monastery in Winnipeg on Tuesday January 7 at 9:00 am. Dorothy and her twin sister, Evelyn, were born on April 11, 1921 to Rose (Kasprick) and Frank Novak in the Stony Creek District. She fondly remembered her childhood as one of contentment even though times were tough and making a living meant hard work. She often reminisced about the security and the sense of belonging that she and her siblings (real treasures as she called them) enjoyed. Life was simple and life was good! At the age of seven, she began her education at Stony Creek School for her early grades and continued at Mountain View School for her later grades. To help support the family, she went out to work at age thirteen, doing housework and taking care of children for the Bray and Minkus families. As a young adult, Dorothy ventured out to BC and to the Yukon where she owned restaurant businesses. It was in Alaska that she met the love of her life, Gerry Berard. Having served in the Canadian army overseas (1939-1945), Gerry joined the U.S. Air Force and it was after his retirement that he and Dorothy married in 1954. During their thirty-four years of marriage, they lived in Minnesota, Seattle and Los Angeles, finally retiring in Brandon in 1985. Dorothy will be remembered for her easy-going personality. She was a private person who valued deep relationships. Her patience, her sense of humour, her warm smile, the teasing glint in her eye and her generosity were evident to all who knew her. An avid reader, she never felt alone. She enjoyed her own company and she enjoyed having company. Her hospitality often included the invitation to dine-out with her at a restaurant. As a member of St. Augustines Catholic Womens League, Dorothy helped with many funeral lunches and various parish events; she was acknowledged at St. Augustines Church for her ministry to her parish community. During her retirement years, Dorothy treasured the close companionship of her cousin, Doreen (Simon) Harper. Dorothy is survived by: her sister, Beatrice of Neepawa; her brothers Gilbert (Elda) of Peterborough ON, and Jack (Claire) of Windsor ON; her sister-in-law Marie Novak of Maple Ridge BC, her brother-in-law Nick Zomar of Courtenay, BC; and by numerous nieces and nephews. Dorothy was pre-deceased by: her husband Gerry (1988); her brothers Paul (1992), Alec (1998), Edward (2005), and Isaac (2006); her sisters Evelyn Kasprick (1982), Tessie Dyck (2001), Katherine Levandosky (2008), and Eva Zomar (2011). Dorothy was a very dear AUNT DOROTHY to all her nieces and nephews who will cherish her memory. Dorothy Rose Berard will always remain in our memories. Her last wish and message for us was Always love and appreciate one another be happy together! May she rest in peace.In lieu of flowers and cards, you may wish to make a donation in her memory to St. Benedicts Foundation, 225 Masters Avenue, Winnipeg, MB R4A 2A1; St. Augustines Catholic Womens League 327 4th Street, Brandon, MB R7A 3H1; or a charity of your choice.

FORREST: Henry Harry Woodhull Forrest. On December 28, 2013 Harry Forrest passed away at the Souris Personal Care Home at the age of 97 years. Born in Souris on April 16th, 1916 Harry lived his entire life in Souris except for his service with Royal Canadian Air Force during WW II. The youngest child of a family of six, Harry had five older sisters: Kate, Mary, Grace, Margaret and Helen all of whom have predeceased him, as have his parents, Samuel Henry SH Forrest and Grace Helena Woodhull. After finishing high school in Souris, Harry studied law, graduating from the University of Manitoba in 1938 and immediately joined his father in what became the Forrest & Forrest law office at Souris which his father had begun in 1907. His son, Brian, joined the firm in 1973 and continued the practice until the firm was sold in 2010. This brought to close 103 years of the Forrest law practice. During the early years before the war Harry took the train to Melita (and later to Reston) where he had satellite offices and it was while in Melita that he was introduced to a young school teacher, Agnes Sellers, by Melitas mayor, Bill Pound.He enlisted in 1941 in the Royal Canadian Air Force. Following his training, he was sent overseas in 1942 in the hold of a New Zealand butter boat. There he was stationed on the English coast operating costal radar stations and later worked with mobile radar units which moved from Holland to France and finally Germany. On the day Paris was liberated Harry happened to be in that city and fate would have it that he ran into another Souris soldier, one of the Brindle boys.In October of 1945 Harry returned to Canada and asked that school teacher, Agnes, to meet him at the train station in Winnipeg and that led to their marriage in July of 1946. They quickly settled into domestic life in Souris, raising four children: Helen, Brian, Jean (Stan) and Karen. Later four grandchildren arrived: Chris, Jim, John and Fiona. His wife Agnes predeceased him in 2002. Harry joined the Masonic Lodge, Souris Curling Club and Golf Club and was a founding member of the Mouse Investment Club. He was a lifelong member of St. Pauls United Church. He served as town solicitor for many years and was a School Trustee during the consolidation of the country schools and the building of the new Souris School. In 2013 he received his 60-year membership pin from the Souris Legion. Highlights of each year for Harry were attending the Manitoba Curling Association Bonspiel in Winnipeg, the annual Souris bonspiel and later the Labor Day golf tournament in Minot. In later years annual winter vacations in Florida and later Palm Springs were much enjoyed with Souris friends. Harry took over as Police Magistrate from his father and later became a Provincial Court Judge. This judicial service began in 1946 and ended at his retirement from the Bench in 1992. On April 6, 2000, the Lieutenant Governor of Manitoba presented him with a gold watch from the Law Society of Manitoba in recognition of his 50 years of legal practice in the province. On May 23, 1992, the community held a appreciation night to honour Harrys many years of dedicated service. Harry was born in a house on Dickson Street in Souris. In 1952, he and Agnes built their home on Dickson Street where he lived until April of 2013 when declining health required his move into the Souris Personal Care Home. Harry had a strong sense of community and the value of supporting activities and businesses in the Souris area. He enjoyed reading, especially history, finance and world affairs. His was a familiar figure on his daily walks across the Swinging Bridge. For the last eight months of his life, Harry received wonderful care in the Souris Personal Care Home in Souris, Manitoba. The celebration of Harrys life will be held on Tuesday, January 7, 2014 at 2:00 PM at St. Pauls United Church in Souris, Manitoba. Cremation has taken place and internment will occur at a later date at the Souris and Glenwood Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations in Harrys memory may be made to the Souris and Glenwood Community Foundation.
GENUNG: Donald Murray, beloved husband of Marlene, passed away on Saturday, December 14, 2013 after a lengthy illness, at the age of 79. A Celebration of Murrays life was held in the Minnedosa United Church on Wednesday, December 18, 2013 with Rev. Natasha Pearen officiating. Born on March 2nd, 1934 at the family home to Maurice and Olive (Dot) Genung in the R.M. of Blanshard. He attended White Bank Lee School and later Oak River School. He worked as an electrical technician for the Department of Defence. During this time he married the former Marlene Burt and together they raised four children in Oak River until 1974 when he was employed with the Rolling Rivers School Division and they moved to Minnedosa. In 1989 they moved out to Basswood where he enjoyed his garden. Murray was a quiet person and enjoyed singing and playing his guitar, if there was not too many around. He liked country western music and was good at yodeling. He always had time to help family and friends with their plumbing, electrical, painting and even farming. Murray will be remembered and sadly missed by many, especially his wife Marlene of 57 years; his son, Donald; daughters, Sherrie (Clark), Cathy (Chris), Maxene (Cam), 10 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Also surviving is one sister Marjorie (Jack), and two brothers, Bob (Wilma) and Brian (Brenda). Murray was predeceased by brother William. He will also be missed by brothers-in-law, Jack (Wendy), Brian (Margaret), and sisters-in-law Mayvis (Jim), and Linda (Syl), and numerous nieces and nephews. Murrays remains will be interred at a later date in the Basswood Cemetery.
HORNER: Harvey Winford Horner passed away peacefully on December 23, 2013 at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home. Harvey will be greatly missed by his wife of 60 years, Mary, stepson Larry McCracken (Joy), stepdaughter Colleen Cowan (Wayne), son Alan, daughter Cindy Grant (Greg), grandchildren Shannon and Nicole McCracken, Lee and Ryan Cowan, Sean, Laura and Drew Horner and Robin and Laurel Grant, great-grandchildren Levi Lepird and Bo and Brenna Cowan, sisters-in-law Joyce, Lorna and Pat Horner, brother-in-law Archie Londry and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by parents Winford and Annie, his brothers Wilbert, David (Pete), Elliot and Alvin Horner, his sisters Eunice Thorkelson and Winona (Nonie) Londry, and his brother-in-law Bert Thorkelson. Harvey was born in Minnedosa, Manitoba on August 21, 1925, the fifth child of Winford and Annie Horner. He spent his early school years at McBride School and graduated from Minnedosa Collegiate in 1943. At 17, he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force, taking his pilots training in various centres across Canada, and receiving his wings in Dauphin. After the war ended, Harvey returned to Minnedosa to work on the Canadian Pacific Railroad. While walking back and forth to work, a neighbor, Mary McCracken, caught his attention. He learned that Mary, a young widow with two children, was a skilled seamstress, and so soon discovered that he had some pants that desperately needed hemming. It didnt take too long for Harvey to realize that Mary, Larry and Colleen were meant to form a new family together. Mary and Harvey were married on June 19, 1953, in the United Church Manse, as Reverend Matchett`s first wedding in Minnedosa. Son, Alan, was born in August, 1954 and daughter Cindy arrived in March, 1958. Harvey always wanted to return to farming and in 1960 he and Mary sold their home in Minnedosa and bought a farm in the Havelock district, south of town. The drafty house was a bit of a shock to the family, but the classic red barn on the property was soon filled was beef cattle, milk cows and very briefly, a few pigs. Chickens, cats and a black lab completed the farmyard population. For the next several decades, Harvey worked full-time on the CPR while expanding the farming operation, with son Alan as his partner almost from the time he could walk. Harvey was always willing to try new farming innovations, being one of the first in the community to try anhydrous, continuous cropping, and no till. He was a true conservationist, and the health of the land and the wildlife on the farm were uppermost in his mind. Harvey was a school trustee for Havelock School until its closure in 1967. He was a leader in the Minnedosa 4-H beef club for many years. He served as president of the United Grain Growers in Minnedosa, representing the district at the national meetings. He was a lifetime member of the Minnedosa legion. He was an avid curler and golfer. Harvey worked for the CPR for nearly 40 years, beginning as a trainman and retiring as a conductor in 1985. He and Alan continued farming together, but with a bit more free time, Harvey and Mary were also able to travel. Mexico was a favorite destination, and they explored not only the beaches, but also many of the agricultural and historical areas throughout the country. They visited Hawaii, Europe, the Caribbean, many parts of the United States, and Marys family home in northern Scotland. In one year, they spent the first day of spring in Alaska and the first day of winter in Australia. Harvey found joy in many things. He loved music, poetry, hunting, fishing, golfing, and curling and managed to get a both hole in one in golf and a 29 hand in cribbage. He was always happy to spend time with his grandchildren, who all took turns eating porridge on grandpas lap over the years. Above all, he loved his years on the farm with Mary. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimers Society or the Minnedosa Personal Care Home. Minnedosa Funeral Service in care of arrangements.

McKIE: Sylvia Ella McKie passed away on Saturday, December 21, 2013 at the Assiniboine Centre at the age of 89 years. Sylvia was predeceased by first husband Raymond, second husband William (Bill), parents Fritz and Gladys, sisters Annabel and Nettie, and brothers Melvin and Oliver. Left to cherish her memory is brother Russell (Edith), two children Russ (Donna) and Dale (Roy), three grandchildren Ray (Kim), Duane (Gina) and Tyler (Jessica), eight great grandchildren and several extended family members. Sylvia was born and raised in Bellhampton, Manitoba. She attended and graduated from Littles Business College in Dauphin, Manitoba in 1943. She married Raymond in 1947 and was employed in several jobs as her and Raymonds careers had them moving several times. Raymond was killed in a car accident in 1964. A few years later, Sylvia purchased a summer motel on the shores of Lake Superior in Duluth, Minnesota. While running the motel, she met Bill and they were later married. The motel was sold and their careers took them to Chicago, Minneapolis, Fort McMurray, Calgary and others. When it was time to retire, Silvia and Bill settled in Brandon. Sylvia took on the task of being the secretary for Labours for Christ, a program of the Lutheran Church of Canada where retired couples built and renovated churches throughout Canada. When she and Bill left the Labours for Christ program, they moved to Medicine Hat to enjoy the milder winters. As age was catching up to them, they again moved to Brandon to be closer with family where she spent her last days. Sylvia was a woman of great faith and was always willing to help someone in need. She stayed active with the church as long as she was able. She loved travelling through North America in one of their various camper vans and loved spending time with family and friends. Sylvia will be deeply missed for her caring heart, honesty and thoughtfulness. The funeral service was held at Grace Lutheran Church on Friday, December 27, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. with Pastor Edmund Mielke officiating. Interment followed at the Brandon Cemetery. Active Pallbearers were Jim Langseth, Dixon Baker, Glen Andrews, Rene Fifi, Bill Woodland and Ivan Soloway.

Prajapati encounter case: Guj HC rejects bail plea of IPS officer
Ahmedabad: The Gujarat High Court on Friday rejected the bail plea of suspended IPS officer Vipul Agarwal who has been in jail since May this year in connection with the fake encounter of Tulsiram Prajapati, a close aide of Sohrabuddin Sheikh.
Justice A S Dave hearing the case, refused to grant
bail to Agarwal as it accepted the argument put forward by the
prosecution that there was a possibility of evidence being
tampered in the case if an influential accused was granted
While opposing Agarwal`s bail plea, government pleader
Prakash Jani had argued that the former SP was in constant
touch with the Rajasthan IPS officer Dinesh M N and then DIG D
G Vanzara, both of whom are accused in Sohrabuddin fake
encounter case, and telephonic conversation establishes that
Agarwal was part of the conspiracy to eliminate Tulsiram.
Agarwal was the district Superintendent of Police,
Banaskantha, when Prajapati, a key witness in Sohrabuddin
Sheikh fake encounter case, was killed by the Gujarat police
in an encounter near Ambaji in Danta taluka the district when
he tried to escape from custody while being shifted from
Rajasthan to Gujarat in December 2006.
Agarwal has been named as the key accused in the
Prajapati case, along with six other police officers who
include four from Rajasthan.

Abbas urges settlement freeze during talks with Israel
December 10, 2012 - 14:17 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas urged the Arab League on Sunday, Dec 9, not to withdraw its 2002 peace initiative as he called instead for renewed negotiations with Israel for six months.
He told the League in Doha he would demand that Israel freeze West Bank settlement construction and Jewish building in east Jerusalem during that time.
Abbas's comments came in response to statements by Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jasem al-Thani, who called on the Arabs to reconsider their 2002 peace initiative.
Abbas's offer marks the first time that he has placed a time-frame on his consistent call for Israel to halt Jewish building over the pre-1967 line since Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu took office in March 2009. They come on the heels of an Israeli announcement that it plans to build thousands of new settler homes, including the development of E1 in the Ma'aleh Adumim settlement.
Israel has insisted that direct talks with the Palestinians should be held without preconditions.
Abbas issued new conditions for renewed negotiations with Israel at the Doha meeting in Qatar, less than two weeks after the UN General Assembly upgraded the Palestinian status to that of non-member observer state.
Negotiations should start from the point where they ended during the era of former prime minister Ehud Olmert in 2008, Abbas said.
The negotiations would lead to agreement on the core issues and an Israeli withdrawal to the pre-1967 lines, Abbas told the Arab League.
Abbas and Netanyahu are sharply divided on the issue of the pre-1967 lines, with Israel insisting that any agreement must modify that line to accommodate the settlement blocs. Olmert in contrast had said that a final-status agreement would be based on the pre-1967 line with land swaps.
On Sunday, Abbas told the Arab League that only a full six-month settlement freeze, including Jewish building in east Jerusalem, could jumpstart negotiations.
He told the delegates, "We want to discuss with you a mechanism that would lead to an Israeli withdrawal from the Palestinian and Arab territories, including Jerusalem, the release of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails and halting settlement construction."
"If this happens, there could be feasible negotiations. Also, we could return to the point where we stopped during the era of Ehud Olmert's government, when we put all the final-status issues on the table. We reached many understandings on over these issues," Abbas added.
Abbas said that the two sides reached understandings on the borders, Jerusalem and the refugees.
The PA will not agree to return to the negotiations from point zero, he stressed.

My only complaint beyond that is that they didn't send me enough white stones. When I got them, I listened to the other reviewer (thanks, by the way) and counted them immediately. I only had 170 white stones (instead of 180). I wrote the company just now, and will update on their customer service with regards to my stones.
Aside from the one deformed stone and the missing stones, it's a great starter set. The bowls are nicer than I thought and the stones a nice for the price.
I would have scored it 4 or 5, but the missing stones and the one damaged stone annoy me.
The service from yellow mountain imports leaves a lot to be desired. Very lengthy response times and a seeming unwillingness to send out enough stones to complete the set.
The bowls came well packed in a plastic foam (a soft semi-stretchy foam that rebounds to shape after a presseing force -- not crumbly styrofoam bead type)double compartment box -- I wish all suppliers used custom packaging of this high protection/quality. The bamboo double sided board, which looks nice, has a solid feeling and is well made; was packed in a custom foam and heavy custom box. The "stones" are all clean molded, no deformaties or color problems and are a complete set.
Back to the smell. We can not figure out if it is the finishing laquer or the wood itself, but these bowl's wretched smell is enough to make you gag. At first, I thought that they would "air out." So, I put the stones into them and played a solitare game. I got a headache. I set them aside for nearly a week. The aroma transferred to the plastic. So, since they are plastic, I rinsed them in a big ceramic bowl with a teaspoon of mild dish soap and running warm water. In a few minutes -- no smell.Read more ›
I'd gladly recommend this set to anyone who loves Go and needs a set of stones. I'll be looking into getting sets for my local Go club as well!
The containers look nice and the stones feel great. The lids don't fit incredibly tight and the straps they give you to hold the tops down are cheap, but it doesn't really detract from the experience.

Tweet of the Day is a series of fascinating stories about the British birds inspired by their calls and songs.
Wildlife Sound Recordist, Chris Watson, presents the Jack Snipe. The song of the Jack snipe has been likened to the sound of a distant horse cantering along a road. To hear it though, you need to visit Scandinavian bogs and mires where these small waders breed. When the ice seals their northern breeding areas jack snipes head south and west and many winter in the British Isles.

PARIS General Motors (GM.N) is facing a legal battle with a group of French Chevrolet dealers who are preparing to go to court over the terms of the brand's withdrawal from Europe.
The U.S. carmaker said in December it would halt Chevrolet sales in the region at the end of next year, opening negotiations to end dealer contracts.
But France's CNPA, which represents retailers, repair shops and service providers across the auto industry, has called a news conference on Tuesday to announce legal action on behalf of a group of Chevrolet dealers who have rejected GM's terms.
The court challenge, to be filed on Monday, accuses GM of failing to honor compensation payments owed to dealers as it unwinds franchise contracts, a CNPA spokeswoman said.
GM France said the Detroit-based automaker was not yet aware of any legal action.
"All contracts have been respected," a spokesman said, declining to comment on their terms. Cancellations are being negotiated on a case-by-case basis, he added.
Dealers are seeking redress for restructuring costs, previous investments to meet GM showroom requirements and the impact of Chevrolet's withdrawal on the value of their businesses and vehicle stocks, according to the CNPA.
The association declined to say how many of the Chevrolet brand's 133 French dealers are backing the challenge.

Compared to any other celebrity moms, Katie Price has been chosen the best in an online poll by UK shopping website Grattan.

Three sets of campers came over to look and ask questions as we set up the "GO." They all were impressed and wanted one! The "Go" was great to sleep in and pull. I'm so glad you created the "GO."

Ford automobiles are assembled with pride and designed with quality in mind to be the Detroit standard. Ford drivers know what it means to be "Built Ford Tough". At SylvanSport we crafted our signature GO Ford Camper to channel that same invincible toughness to take you and your outdoor experiences to the extreme. The GO Ford Camper helps get you and your gear off the beaten path and into Ford country.
The GO Ford Camper was made to be especially easy to use and a fun way to take the whole family on vacation. Designed with an articulating multi-position aluminum frame that is strong yet light, along with a control-tilt deck, this Ford Camper effortlessly hauls all your outdoor gear and then simply pops up its Kelty tent to set-up camp for the night. We leave the competition in the dust by getting you into the woods with a comfortable place to turn in after a day's activities. This Ford Camper is your gateway to adventure.
Recently we have seen Detroit make a comeback due to strength and a commitment to American made automobiles. SylvanSport salutes these efforts and takes great pride in the fact that our GO Ford Camper is built right here in the United States. Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Brevard North Carolina, we love the great American outdoors. Travel our great nation in a GO Ford Camper.
It doesn't matter if you're rocketing down the highway in your small hybrid Ford Fusion or grinding up a mountain in your Ford Flex SUV, the GO Ford Camper will work with all Ford makes and models. With its low profile design for minimum drag and super fuel efficiency, the GO Ford Camper is as versatile as your plans. SylvanSport recommends that all GO owners follow the guidelines put forth by their tow vehicle manufacturer. We do not recommend doing anything that would either void a warranty, create an unsafe condition on the road, or put anyone in an uncomfortable situation. Hop into your new Ford Focus with all the confidence of having your gear and your campsite with this unique Ford Camper.
