PARKERSBURG - People looking for a reason to visit downtown Parkersburg on weekends, a monthly event will begin next month to draw crowds.
Beginning next month, Second Saturday Socials will be a monthly event where one downtown business will host entertainment and drinks following guided bicycle and walking tours of downtown, said Kim Coram, chair of the Park Day Planning Committee and a Parkersburg City Council member.
"This came about after the success of Park Day last month," Coram said. "People kept asking us to do it again and it is a lot of work, so we came up with this smaller, monthly event."
For a $5 fee, people can participate in the walk or bicycle ride and enjoy a free beverage with entertainment at the host business. Each month, the event will be held on the second Saturday and hosted by a different downtown business.
"We are trying to get more dollars into downtown," Coram said. "By doing events like this, we are showing businesses our buying power."
According to the Alliance for Biking and Walking, bicyclists and walkers spend more money in business districts than people using cars as their mode of transportation.
"People riding a bicycle or walking downtown see more signs and what is available better than someone driving 25 or more miles per hour in a car," Coram said. "With the Second Saturday Socials we want to show businesses that being a bicycling community helps their business."
This first Second Saturday Social event will begin at 5 p.m. Nov. 9 at The Daily Grind, at 619 Market St. The Dec. 14 event will be hosted by Nostalgia antiques and vendor mall, at 810 Market St.
The third Parkersburg Park Day was held Sept. 14 and was part of an international event to encourage people to temporarily transform metered parking spaces into public parks and other social spaces. In place of cars, people are encouraged to come ride, skate, jump, play and dance in the street.
"Park Day involves too much in closing the street and other things to do it more often, but we hope the Second Saturday Socials fill the public's want," Coram said.
Second Saturday Socials are sponsored by the Blennerhassett Bicycle Club, Parkersburg Bicycle Advisory Board and Downtown PKB.

50+: Live Better, Longer
Buying Drugs Online.
Buyer Beware
But while buying cheaper drugs from reputable online pharmacists at home or abroad can save you plenty, obtaining drugs blindly from a site you've never heard of could also buy you major trouble. The FDA, Federal Trade Commission, and consumer watchdog groups warn that when you order from web sites you're not sure about, you could be getting counterfeit drugs that contain no active ingredients or even harmful substances.
Most consumers are smart enough to know that the "Rolex" watch offered by a street-corner peddler is sure to be a cheap knockoff. If you want the real thing, you go to a reputable jeweler down the street. But when the street is just one little block on the information superhighway, how can you tell whether you're dealing with a respectable storefront operation or a sidewalk hustler?
You only need to glance at the spam clogging your inbox to see that some charlatan somewhere -- whether it's in the Bahamas, Beijing, Africa, or Alabama -- is willing to take your money in exchange for drugs that promise to make your sex life better, grow hair on a billiard ball, double your lifespan, or let you eat deep-fried Twinkies while you watch the pounds melt away!
Some sites offer the chance to "buy drugs (FDA-approved prescription drugs) and other medications with NO prescription." Others promise that only a brief online or telephone consultation is needed. When Consumer Reports magazine senior editor Tod Marks went online to see what he could get without a valid prescription, he found this: "Without visiting or speaking to a doctor, Marks was able to buy seven different prescription drugs -- to help him lose weight, quit smoking, combat osteoporosis, and fight aging, depression, seasonal allergies, and bacterial infection. Except for the antihistamine, which might have helped his hay fever, Marks, a healthy 44-year-old nonsmoker, had no business taking those medications," the magazine reports.
An Ounce of Prevention
How can you tell whether a cyberpharmacy is legit? A bill currently before the U.S. Senate, called the Dorgan-Snowe Drug Importation Bill, would establish a system for ensuring that imported drugs are approved by the FDA and are made in FDA-inspected facilities. In addition, drugs could only be imported from countries with a drug regulation system comparable to that of the U.S. The bipartisan bill also calls on the FDA to establish a list of approved Canadian pharmacies on its web site and furnish a toll-free phone number for Americans to verify the legitimacy of a Canadian pharmacy. The FDA would also be required to inspect both Canadian pharmacies and U.S. importers of prescription drugs to ensure that they comply with the law.

Definition of complementarity in English:
noun (plural complementarities)[mass noun]
1A relationship or situation in which two or more different things improve or emphasize each other's qualities: a culture based on the complementarity of men and women
More example sentences
- Emerging complementarities between the economies of the two regions, buttressed by macro-economic reforms of the recent past, have contributed to a rapid growth in trade, investment and financial flows between them.
- My earlier post was an admittedly rudimentary attempt to come up with a more accurate way of describing gender differences and complementarities.
- As generalists become more different from one another, interorganizational complementarities likely increase, thereby yielding more opportunities for alliance formation.
1.1 Physics The concept that two contrasted theories, such as the wave and particle theories of light, may be able to explain a set of phenomena, although each separately only accounts for some aspects.
Example sentences
- Bohr may be thought to have got perilously close to this when he suggested that complementarity could shed light on the age-old question of determinism and free will in relation to human nature.
- Frayn ingeniously links several other physics metaphors, from Scrodinger's wave equation to complementarity and the disintegration of the radioactive elements.
- The complementarity manifested in quantum laws reflects the inability of our classical concepts to accommodate the richness and subtlety of the world, and removes the Cartesian divide that insulates the observer from the observed.
Words that rhyme with complementarityangularity, barbarity, bipolarity, charity, circularity, clarity, familiarity, granularity, hilarity, insularity, irregularity, jocularity, linearity, parity, particularity, peculiarity, polarity, popularity, regularity, secularity, similarity, singularity, solidarity, subsidiarity, unitarity, vernacularity, vulgarity

LOOKING UNDER A MICROSCOPE AT TICKS SENT FROM ALL OVER THE STATE..RESARCHERS AT MAINE MEDICAL CENTER'S VECTOR- BORNE DISEASE LAB ARE GETTING A BETTER IDEA OF WHERE THESE DISEASE CARRYING CREATURES ARE SHOWING UP. "which shows us over the last twenty-five years how the deer tick has spread from an initial appearance in southwestern maine and Cumberland county, Now to where its appearing in the downeast areas and Aroostook county" AS THE POPULATION OF DEER TICKS IN THE STATE OF MAINE GROWS ...SO DOES THE RISK FOR LYME DISEASE. REPORTING OF THE DISEASE WAS AT ITS HIGHEST LAST YEAR, WITH MORE THAN ONE-THOUSAND CASES.

Whoa, I was hoping for emphezema!
I just went and bought a snake bite first aid kit. Now all I need is someone to make the tiny incisions and suck the poison out.
If a guy had just one of those little orbs removed, would that lower his chances by half?
And yes, I realize this is in poor "taste".

And Wiltshire is eh Fab!!
If I were you I would be tempted to be a little quite until the RVP situation is sorted out.
But what skill is there in looks?
...and Corluka has gone to Lokomotiv Moscow...
I hope Levy et al get the manager sorted before venturing too far in the transfer market.
CB seems to have gone quiet, but Vertonghen was reputedly negotiating his cut of the transfer fee. Without Corluka (and his versatility) I still think that even if Vertonghen signs, we may need another CB (on tha assumption that Galls/King play a lesser or no part next season) - maybe not if the new manager 'fancies' Caulker or Khumalo.
I see as well that the Damiao rumours have resurfaced, as well as VdV's departure. So depending on VdV (and if the new manager likes playing the 'one behind'), we may also need a couple of strikers.
Good hook to repeat earlier comments eh?

i thought u we're teasing me john. but u are right,
corluka has finally gone!
as u know i was never a fan of his. far too slow for a RB & hasnt got the natural CB instincts for a CB.
made a lot of mistakes the other day against a poor ireland team too.
bales news is good but not great. its basically a 1yr contract extension but with a pay rise. but a year extra of bale is good!

We have been granted, in partnership with SSE Renewables, an
exclusive lease option on an area of seabed off the west coast of
Orkney. This allows us to start working with stakeholders on
the first phase of our proposed Oyster wave farm.
We are currently conducting technical and environmental surveys
to assess the feasibility of installing Oyster wave energy devices
along a stretch of Orkney's coastline from Costa Head in the north
to Neban Point in the south-west.
In conjunction with our survey work, we are following statutory
environmental impact assessment and permitting processes.
These processes will ensure our proposed Oyster wave power project
is developed sensitively and with due consideration to the local
environment and community. We are working in close consultation
with key local stakeholders and government bodies and will continue
to do so as our proposed project progresses.
We have appointed Orkney-based environmental consultancy
Xodus Environment to independently assess any potential
environmental impact of our proposed Oyster wave power project and
to work with us to mitigate any such impact. We are
also working with a number of local surveyors to collect baseline
data on the local bird and marine mammal populations present in the
Aquamarine Power was awarded the exclusive lease option on this
area of seabed in partnership with SSE Renewables in March 2010 as
part of The Crown Estate's Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters leasing
round. This leasing round was the world's first seabed
leasing round, which was designed to enable marine energy
developers such as Aquamarine Power to investigate the potential
for the installation of marine energy devices around Britain's
coastline. The Crown Estate owns the seabed around Britain out to
12 nautical miles.
We are working in partnership with SSE Renewables under the
joint venture name Brough Head Wave Farm Limited (BHWFL). SSE
Renewables is part of SSE (Scottish and Southern Energy plc).
SULA Diving has been working with Aquamarine Power since 2006 carrying out seabed surveys and deploying Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers to measure wave conditions. We are glad to be working with Aquamarine Power in the early stages of the marine renewables industry and appreciate that they recognised our local knowledge and expertise and choose to work with us local companies whenever they can.
ORCA has built a strong working relationship with Aquamarine Power since we began providing archaeological and geophysical consultancy services for them in 2009. At ORCA we have worked hard to build a reputation for integrity and trust. It's great to work with an organisation like Aquamarine Power whose values align with our own.
Marc MurrayMarc is our senior site developer and is responsible for managing our site development team. Prior to joining us in 2010, Marc worked at Dounreay nuclear site for 11 years holding a number of project management roles.
As the lead industry partner in the Hebridean Marine Energy Futures project we can see clearly the economic and social benefits that could be generated in the Western Isles through a thriving marine energy industry. It is vital to recognise though that we are new arrivals on these islands. We are a young industry and we need to develop our plans in partnership with the people who live here.
Scottish islands - a solution in sight?

Opening the Ethanol Floodgates: Here Comes Brazil
The U.S. ethanol industry just can't catch a break.
If scientific reports questioning the environmental benefits of corn-based ethanol, higher feedstock prices, tumbling retail prices, a capacity glut, and brokerage downgrades weren't enough to wrestle with, U.S. ethanol producers now face the specter of more competition from abroad.
The Brazilian government announced today a $10 million campaign to make Brazil's sugarcane-derived ethanol industry an export giant, reports AFP:
"The aim is to build an international biofuels market, which currently practically does not exist," [Brazilian trade promotion agency] president Alessandro Teixeira said. It will target the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. "Brazilian ethanol, made from sugarcane, has emerged as the most viable alternative, with competitive advantages over maize, beetroot and other primary materials."
Brazil is already the second-biggest ethanol producer, behind the U.S. But most of its production feeds a domestic auto market built to run on ethanol blends. Exports look increasingly viable: Brazilian ethanol's lower production costs help it offset U.S. tariffs, and it can also export ethanol via third countries thanks to the Caribbean Basin Initiative. Meanwhile, the European Union is mandating greater use of biofuels, but has lately gone cold on forest-razing Southeast Asian palm oil biofuels.
For U.S. producers, the bad news is a broken record. Friday, Goldman Sachs slashed its recommendation on Aventine Renewable Energy Holdings to "sell" from "neutral," after the Pekin, Ill. company reported a 76% drop in fourth-quarter profit. Goldman says at a time of declining ethanol margins, the company's insistence on burning cash to expand capacity makes no sense: The brokerage slashed its target price from $12 to $4. Goldman also has a "sell" rating on VeraSun Energy and Pacific Ethanol. All three stocks have been manhandled by the markets this year, and all are trading at a fraction of their 52-week highs.
But hope springs eternal: After announcing earnings last week, Aventine chief executive Ron Miller called for the U.S. government to open new markets for U.S. ethanol. Maybe Brazil?

Blood drive at BPC set for April 24
MOUNT VERNON -- The deployment of area National Guard forces has significantly depleted the number of customary blood donors and resulted in a blood supply level for the American Red Cross Southern Region Blood Services that is below safe levels.
To alleviate the everyday need for blood on a regional basis, Rho Lambda Chi and Delta Sigma Chi of Brewton-Parker College are working with the American Red Cross Southern Region Blood Services to have a blood drive Thursday, April 24, on the Brewton-Parker campus in Mount Vernon.
The Bloodmobile will be open behind Gates Hall from 1:30-6:30 p.m.
Nancy Martin, senior account manager for the southern region, said the region's supply of blood is below safe inventory levels, and those for types O and B blood are especially low.
A large portion of the blood collected in this country is needed for surgeries and the everyday treatment of diseases such as cancer and sickle cell anemia.
People who donate blood are seen as everyday heroes to each person who has ever needed a blood transfusion.
To become an everyday hero and set an appointment for the blood drive, contact Michael Aoa, director of student activities at Brewton-Parker, at 583-3186.
Patrons unable to make the April 24 blood drive but wishing to donate at an alternate time and site may contact the American Red Cross by calling 1-800-GIVE-LIFE (1 800-448-3543) or by logging on at www.givelife.org.

A mother and her children hide from gunmen at Westgate Shopping Centre in Nairobi. Gunmen stormed the shopping mall killing at least 20 people in what Kenya's government said was a terrorist attack, and sending scores fleeing into shops, a cinema and onto the streets in search of safety. Sporadic gun shots could be heard hours after the assault started as soldiers surrounded the mall and police and soldiers combed the building, hunting down the attackers shop by shop.

Today, I did something I have never done. Today, instead of running away, I ran towards something very special. Today, I felt like an important part of an incredible group of people. I have spent many months trying to convince myself that I am not part of this group. But I am and I am so lucky to be here. Today was my first Race for the Cure in NYC. I have been told by fellow survivors that the Race is a very meaningful experience and now I understand why. An estimated 20,000 people were involved today. How can I feel alone when that many people care?
I was joined today by my spectacular parents. They were by my side today like they are each and every day of my somewhat complicated and amusing life. I was also honored to have two of my closest and most important friends walk with us. To me, their participation represented all of the special people in my life who have been there for me and my family. Thank you all for your love and support. I need it now more than ever. I am focusing on the future. I am focusing on helping other women through this experience. And I am focusing on the New Year we are about to begin. May we all be blessed with health, happiness, and great things.
Today is a special day.

The Koreshan Unity Collection: A Final Look Back (Part 11)
In December 2011, we began a 15-month journey with the Koreshan Unity, a journey that carried vestiges of New York State's mid-19th century "burned-over district" west to the bustling streets of late 19th century Chicago, and then south to the untamed frontier of southwest Florida at the turn of the 20th century.
The journey was guided by an extensive collection of archival records created and maintained by the Koreshan Unity for over a century; personal letters and journals, religious writings, legal and financial records, publications, and many thousands of photographs documenting the Unity's founding and founders, their beliefs, and their dream to establish a New Jerusalem against seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
The Koreshan Unity Collection (Part Ten)
In previous posts, we've discussed how we approached processing a large, very disorganized collection, talked about the nature of the collection and some of the interesting items found in it, and looked at the background and some of the beliefs of the Koreshan Unity as revealed in the collection.
Full-time processing of the collection has continued in the meantime, so let's take a look at the very significant progress our archivists have made in transforming the collection into an easily-accessible research resource, supported in large part by National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) grant funding (www.archives.gov/nhprc).
We have largely completed processing of the Koreshan Unity's administrative records and operating records, including general accounting and transactions, payroll, stocks, taxes, attorney fees, legal cases, insurance, will and estate records, and other records documenting the administration and operations of the organization and community.
These records include foundation documents such as original constitutions, corporation records, and early minutes of the organization. The pages below, taken from minutes in 1893, document the Unity's adoption of a constitution in which an Archivist and an Assistant Archivist were designated as two of the seven members of the Board of Directors. It is thanks to the work of these first Koreshan Unity archivists that today's archivists have such a valuable collection to process and make available.
We have also completed processing the files of Hedwig Michel, a German immigrant who joined the Unity in 1941 and was the last remaining member upon her death in 1982. Processing the papers of "The Last Koreshan" was complicated by the extensive intermingling of personal and organizational records. The three items below are examples of the wide variety of materials found in Michel's files.
Koreshan Unity Collection (Part Nine)
What did the Koreshans believe exactly?
Up to this point we have discussed Cyrus Teed's illumination and subsequent events that led to the formation of the Koreshan Unity. We'd like to continue to delve further into the Unity's core principles. This time, we move from the realm of Cellular Cosmogony to a much more basic idea: equality.
Among the truths that Teed derived from his illumination was the belief that God existed as both male and female. Teed believed that while God drew from his masculinity, it was not his permanent state. In order to maintain equilibrium in the spiritual sense, he would eventually assume his female side. If God captured both sexes evenly, Teed believed his followers should as well. As a result, Teed called for equality of the sexes within the Koreshan Unity, a notion largely unheard of at the end of the 19th century.
Female members were not valued solely as wives and mothers, but for their intelligence, resilience and work ethic. Koreshan women held officer positions within the Unity, often outnumbering men. In addition to traditional officer roles, seven women made up the governing body known as the Sisters of the Planetary Court. Living together in a building of the same name, these sisters helped to manage the Unity.
Teed acknowledged the difficulty of both attaining and sustaining equality. This reality is apparent in his manuscripts and speeches. Teed explained, "I speak now for the human structure. If the two were now placed side by side as equals in government, there would still be no equality, because men have ruled so long there will be no righteous government until a woman stands at the head of affairs."
This belief is most readily shown in the role of one Koreshan in particular: Annie G. Ordway. Ordway, one of the earliest followers of Koresh, acted as the first President of the Koreshan Unity. She operated as Teed's counterpart in the managerial and supervisory senses, and in 1891 Teed pronounced her Victoria Gratia, Pre-Eminent of the Koreshan Unity. He believed Victoria was destined to be his successor. Despite Teed's overwhelming faith in Victoria, not all Koreshans were convinced. After Teed's death, many opposed Victoria's continued leadership. This led to her eventual resignation in 1909.
While Koreshan women received equal treatment, the struggle for women's rights beyond Koreshan grounds did not go unnoticed. Victoria Gratia spoke to the disconnect between the sexes before the Koreshan Convention in her 1888 address titled "Woman's Restoration to Her Rightful Dominion." She explained,
"Woman, a natural born citizen of the cosmos, evolved through the same agencies which bring into being her brother, equally expert in all that pertains to juvenile sports and pastimes, as active in the discernment of specific means to any given end, as fertile in inventive genius, as dominant in will, more righteously and kindly disposed, more compassionate and humane than her masculine counterpart, finds herself at her majority the technical bondwoman of the most arbitrary and tyrannical prestige possible to conceive."
In her speech, Victoria Gratia urged women to acknowledge the disparity between women and men. Both possess characteristics inherent to their sex. Only when the rights of women are protected can we truly benefit from our differences.
The State Archives of Florida's in-depth processing of the Koreshan Unity Papers allows for a greater understanding of the Koreshan Unity's convictions. Look to future posts for more on the fundamental beliefs of the Unity!
Koreshan Unity Collection (Part Eight)
In Part Three of this series, we alluded to the fundamental principles of Koreshan belief that arose from founder Cyrus Teed's "illumination." Among the most interesting beliefs of Koreshanity was cellular cosmogony, or the hollow earth.
In The Cellular Cosmogony (first published in 1898), Teed explained that the earth was not a convex sphere but instead a hollow, concave cell containing the entire universe with the sun at its center. The earth was motionless while the heavens rotated within the concave sphere. Life existed on the inside surface of the cell, and people were held on that inner surface by centrifugal force. Teed dismissed gravity, heliocentricism, and other scientific theories as "gigantic fallacy and farce" and the convex appearance of the earth's surface as an "optical illusion."
In truth, according to Teed, "The earth is a concave sphere, the ratio of curvation being eight inches to the mile, thus giving a diameter of eight thousand, and a corresponding circumference of about twenty-five thousand miles. This fact is physically and mechanically demonstrated by placing a perpendicular post at any point on the surface of the earth, (though it were better to place it by the side of a surface of water,) and extending a straight line at right angles from this perpendicular. The line thus extended will strike the surface at any distance proportionate to the height of the vertical post."
The Koreshans had in fact conducted this very experiment in 1897 to demonstrate the truth of their beliefs. The Koreshan Unity Geodetic Survey staff devised an apparatus they called a rectilineator and conducted tests on the Gulf Coast at Naples, the results of which Teed published in The Cellular Cosmogony as proof that the earth was indeed concave.
Bolstered by what he considered scientific proof of his theories, Teed now laid them out in detail in The Cellular Cosmogony. According to Teed, the sun and stars formed a "stellar nucleus" in the atmosphere above the concave surface of the earth at the very center of this hollow cell. Instead of the earth rotating on an axis and revolving around the sun, it was the heavens that moved, their movement generated by the "electro-magnetic substance created at and radiating from the stellar nucleus." The heavens were, as Teed described them, "a great electro-magnetic battery."
This universology also dictated Teed's vision of what the final form of social government would be. "The government of the physical universe is imperial," Teed wrote, "in that the head of government resides in one center; but democratic, in that all of the stars bear that reciprocal relation which makes the center dependent upon the reciprocal activity of the subsidiary but contributory centers. While there is a subordinate relation of the multiplicity of stars to the central one, so there is a subordination of the central star to all of the stars, whence the central one derives its powers of government. The regulation of society, therefore, is not left to another experiment, because former experiments have failed to accomplish for the people that for which government is established, but must be regulated by the scientific knowledge and application of principles which may be determined before the correct form of government is instituted."
Midwife Doll
Who is She and Why is She in the Archives?
Most of the unusual or unexpected items we find in the Archives are usually some form of recorded information. Every once in a while, though, something – or someone – a bit different makes an appearance.
Take this distinctive woman, for example.
Who is she, and more importantly, why is she in the Archives?
One clue is the agency from which she originated – what archivists call provenance. This mystery woman is from the State Board of Health, located in a series of Midwife Program Files from 1924-1975 (series S904).
Make sense now?
The State Board of Health initiated a midwife licensing program in 1931 to reduce infant mortality and to promote maternal and child health. So, yes, this was a maternity and childbirth teaching aid for midwives and expectant mothers.
In addition to this midwife teaching doll, the Midwife Program Files include correspondence, reports of legislation, essays on midwifery, midwife manuals and publications, photographs, and midwife licenses, record cards, and summaries. The midwife record cards provide yearly health checkup information, race, literacy and education level, and consulting physicians. The summaries list licensed midwives in each county for each year.
There are plenty of great resources for mid-20th century public health policy research among the records of the State Board of Health in the State Library and Archives. Among the many other record series from the Board are a substantial series of administrative files dating from 1889-1926 (series S46), Board minutes from 1889-1969 (series S272), subject files from 1875-1975 (series S900), and a series of photographs, photographic slides, lantern slides, negatives and sound recordings documenting the history and activities of the State Board of Health (series S907).
Koreshan Unity Collection (Part Seven)
The Koreshan Unity Collection: An Inside Look into Processing a Large Archival Collection (Part Seven)
What should be saved?
Archivists grapple with this day in and day out. The question of what to save, commonly referred to as appraisal, is arguably the most challenging archival issue in the profession. However, the archivist is not the first to determine the long-term value of records; that role, knowingly or not, belongs to the creator.
The materials within the Koreshan Unity Collection tell much about the focus of the Unity and show that they attributed long-term value to surprising quantities and types of materials. The collection provides a glimpse into the structure of the group and shows relationships and themes between members.
Often, records are saved in order to document some sort of transaction; they offer proof of an event or an agreement. The Koreshan Unity's administrative records are evidence of their business dealings both within their settlement at Estero, Florida, and relating to other ventures across the United States. Along with the typical receipts, tax records, and payroll records, the administrative records also include documentation of the origins of the Koreshan Unity and the emphasis its members and leaders placed on organizational structure and clear lines of authority from the Unity's beginnings. Foundational documents such as a printed 1896 Constitutions of the Koreshan Unity and its Departments (below) are evidence of this focus on organizational structure.
The Unity's focus on organizational structure continued after Cyrus Teed's death, as evidenced by this "General classification and assignment of duties" from about 1909 (below).
The manuscript starts, "General classification and assignment of duties for the Edification, Assistance and Guidance of all Members of the Ecclesia or Home. Ecclesia is a Greek word signifying congregation, and as used in this connection, would embrace all those who have entered into communistic relation and have accepted Cyrus as their Shepherd and Messiah, and the authority He established as having the legal and moral right to regulate the conduct of the membership…"
Part Six of this series alluded to unexpected findings within the administrative and operational records. While most records align themselves with the function that they were created to document, it's the unexpected items that provide archivists with the most entertainment and, in some cases, surprising insight. Here, then, is our first installment of:
They Saved What!?
Are these items in the collection because the Koreshans were meticulous record keepers? Because of a general consensus to save everything? Quite possibly it's a combination of both. From the outset, the Koreshan Unity recognized the importance of maintaining their records to ensure long-term access and even designated members to carry out that responsibility. The size and contents of the collection are testament to that role.
As the community dwindled in the years after Teed's death, responsibility for the Unity's survival fell on a very small group of remaining members. It is likely that limited staff leaned towards saving everything to avoid the risk of throwing out important records. The plethora of receipts held members accountable for money spent from the communal treasury down to the last penny. While their historical value to the collection might seem less obvious than that of some other administrative records, these individual items explain daily operations of the Koreshan Unity and show the uniqueness of their administrative functions beyond what is expected.
An Archivist's View, Part Two
By Bethanie
Hello, again! Earlier this week I discussed my thoughts and experiences as a student of archives and as an archivist. This time I'd like to move from past experience to a discussion of the archives profession as I see it today.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to pursue a career in the archival field. In the midst of economic and budget issues, archives have downsized in order to survive. Today, many archives are run by a single person. These archivists, commonly referred to as lone arrangers, take on all archival responsibilities. They are responsible for acquisition, appraisal, arrangement, description, preservation and access. The lone arranger advocates both for their repository in order to promote use and to maintain proper security of their archival holdings. Here at the State Archives of Florida, we're fortunate to have multiple archivists that work towards these goals.
Although staffing is a common concern, the role of the archive within society remains strong. This is particularly apparent in the continual shift to digital. Our culture's increased awareness and participation in the digital sector is changing the process of records creation, storage and long-term access. In this sense, technology serves as a catalyst for constantly evolving archival operations. Archivists have a commitment to preserve all mediums of recorded and collected information that they accession. Technological advances constantly challenge the archivist's ability to adapt to change. New mediums call for new means of preservation. However, these advances also promote the archive within society through online dissemination and access. Technology connects the archive to a larger community.
I'm constantly reminded of these concepts here at the State Archives of Florida. I believe that Florida Memory is a prime example of the bond between the archive and technology. Through the digitization and web design efforts of the Florida Memory team, the State Archives brings centuries old documents into the digital age. The myriad online collections, coupled with the use of educational resources and social media, provide outreach far beyond what was possible pre-internet.
That being said, this shift does not negate the traditional archival collection and access methods. If anything I think it calls for an even more firm foundation within arrangement, description and collection management. The digital age expands our responsibilities as archivists. Each format expands existing preservation concerns. File migration of born digital records, format and software obsolescence, and digital metadata programs will join the storage and environmental concerns of existing collections.
Now I find myself back at my elevator speech, so here it goes. Archivists protect the historical and public records of the institution in which they work. These record groups are as varied as the archives that house them where they act as evidence of past events. By following professional guidelines and best practices we ensure their long-term preservation, appropriate arrangement, and availability for future users. To quote Theodore R. Schellenberg's The Management of Archives, "Use is the end of all archival effort." I agree with Schellenberg. While we work at all stages, the final goal of an archivist is to provide proper access. It both justifies and validates our continued existence.
Theodore R. Schellenberg, The Management of Archives, quoted in Mark A. Greene, "The Power of Archives: Archivists' Values and the Value in the Postmodern Age," The American Archivist 72 (Spring/Summer 2009): 33.
An Archivist's View, Part One
By Bethanie
In the spirit of American Archives Month, we've decided to discuss the role of the archivist in a personal fashion. That being said, a brief introduction is in order. As you can tell from above, my name is Bethanie. My presence on Florida Memory up to this point is with the series of blog posts on the Koreshan Collection. I work at the State Archives as a Project Archivist where my main responsibility is arranging and describing the aforementioned collection.
Each archivist comes to the field in a different way. Some seek out the profession directly while others happen upon it. On the whole, I identify most with the former rather than the latter method. What follows are my thoughts, opinions, and experiences as an archivist; my metaphorical archival soap-box.
So, what is an archivist? Or, more importantly in terms of this post, what does it mean to be one? One of the first bits of advice I was given when I started as a student in an archival education program was the importance of an archivist elevator speech. In other words, a 20 second speech designed to explain and justify my role as an archivist to anyone who asked. Fast forward two years, and I'm still working on it. I suppose part of my problem is in my inability to condense my thoughts. A much easier, though longer, way for me to explain begins with my experience.
I decided I wanted to be an archivist while at my internship for my history degree. I worked in a historical society in Western Pennsylvania where I transcribed correspondence written by a member of an expedition to the North Pole. I enjoyed learning about the early 20th century through one man's life in letters. Needless to say, I was hooked.
Next step: master's degree. Fortunately, I lived within an hour of a university where an archives specialization in the Library and Information Science program was offered. Thus began my archival education.
Theories and best practices, arguments and discussions. Debates over Sir Hilary Jenkinson and Theodore R. Schellenberg. Functional analysis vs. Macroappraisal vs. Documentation Strategy vs. countless other approaches to appraisal. Drills on provenance, original order, and a determination to always, always respect des fonds. I, along with my classmates, spent many months in a theoretical think tank. After a long class of discussing a topic ad nauseum, we'd eventually come to the same question: why?
Enter, experience. While interning at a university archive and participating in collaborative projects with a local museum, the endless discussions started to make sense. Their relevancy beyond the classroom became apparent as we applied best practice and theory to the task at hand.
As a project archivist I draw from my education and that of fellow archivists daily. It's a constant back-and-forth activity. There seems to be a divide between a concentration on theory and on the reality of everyday archival operations. I think the truth of the archival profession is somewhere in between. While theory and practice are necessary in the archival sphere, theory requires experience in order to be fully appreciated. Of course, that's just my point of view!
Stay tuned later this week for my thoughts on the archives profession today!

Hey a friend of mine is going to Chicago and was wanting to stop somewhere along the way and play a round. I suggested Davenport and was wondering which course would be the best choice, he will be by himself so I think westlake would be out. Is there one that's really close to the interstate, and easy to find.
Wanted to ask this in the Dav/quad cites section but for whatever reason its restricted.

Horace Silver - Jazz great dead at 85
The pianist, who co-founded famed Jazz Messengers band, was a favorite of Steely Dan, James Brown & Steve Miller. He created a rich legacy.
Perhaps the best way to gauge the indelible impact of jazz great Horace Silver, who died Wednesday in New York at the age of 85, is to look at his impact beyond jazz.
His classic song, "Filthy McNasty," was recorded by the Steve Miller Band, while Steely Dan's 1974 hit, "Rikki Don't Lose That Number," was built on the opening motif to Silver's "Song For My Father" (which also inspired Steve Wonder's "Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing" and Earth, Wind & Fire's "Clover"). The English rap-jazz group Us3 sampled both "Father" and "Filthy McNasty" on its chart-topping 1993 album "Torch." James Brown and Dan Hicks are just two of the artists who recorded their own versions of "Father."
Silver's 1966 album, "The Jody Grind," soon inspired the name of a young English rock trio called Jody Grind. He was also instrumental in introducing elements of Brazilian bossa-nova, Cape Verdean morna and various Latin music styles to American audiences. In 1965, the infectious title track to Morgan's landmark album, "The Sidewinder," was used in a Chrysler TV commercial that aired during that year's World Series
"Horace was one of the most important musicians in the whole history of jazz. And he was influential not just in jazz, but in much of American and World Music through the years," said Grammy Award-winning former San Diego trumpeter Brian Lynch, who was 26 when he joined Silver's band for a three-year stay in the mid 1980s.
"I really believe that not only was my journey in jazz inspired by Horace, but also my journey into Latin music. One of the biggest thrills I ever had was when I got a phone call from him, after I auditioned for his band, saying that I got the gig. It was one of the best moments in my life."
Those sentiments were seconded by San Diego trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos, who in 2001 received a call from Silver, a longtime Los Angeles resident.
"I thought it was a friend playing a joke on me!" Castellanos recalled. "And Horace was like: 'No, this is Horace Silver.' I was completely shocked and awe-struck. I don't even know how he got my number. He changed the sound of small-group jazz playing in the early 1960s and he was the sound of Blue Note Records. He was responsible for making a quintet sound like a big band by the way he would compose."
A 1995 National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master honoree, Silver died of natural causes Wednesday at his home in New Rochelle, N.Y., according to his son, Gregory.
A triple threat in music, he excelled as a pianist, composer and band leader. He also had an almost unerring knack for finding and nurturing talented young players. The list of musicians to pass through Silver's various band lineups before becoming stars in their own right is formidable.
In addition to Lynch, it includes saxophonists Joe Henderson, Bennie Maupin, Michael Brecker and Ralph Moore; trumpeters Art Farmer, Dave Douglas, Randy Brecker and Woody Shaw (whose brother, Pete, used to be a San Diego Charger); drummers Billy Cobham, Carl Burnett and Louis Hayes; and many more.
On and off stage, Silver set an example for his less seasoned band mates.
"Horace was a beautiful, warm, caring, person," Lynch recalled. "His personal habits and honesty were beyond reproach and he was very playful and very aware of spiritual maters, in terms of 'Do unto your brother as you would have your brother do to you.' He gave younger players an opportunity to express themselves and to be heard in his band. and he was a lot of fun and so hip."
Silver was born Sept. 2, 1928, in Norwalk, Conn. His first major musical epiphany came when he was a child and heard Jimmie Lunceford's all-star big band perform at a nearby amusement park. In 1949, when he was 21, he began his career playing piano in saxophonist Stan Getz's band. Getz was quick to recognize Silver's talents as a composer and recorded several of his early songs.
Silver subsequently worked with such sax giants as Lester Young and Coleman Hawkins, before his mid-1950s partnership with drum dynamo Art Blakey gave birth to the Jazz Messengers, which became one of the most storied bands in jazz and a leader of the budding hard-bop movement.
Silver left the Jazz Messengers after a few years to launch a solo career that endured for decades. His infectious, brightly melodic fusion of jazz, blues, gospel, funk, Latin and more was delivered with consistent spunk and concision, fire and finesse.
He performed a number of times in San Diego over the years, including at Sherwood Auditorium in La Jolla, where his 1984 San Diego Jazz Festival concert featured budding trumpet star Lynch.
"He was great and he helped me a lot with his kind words on my first solo album," Lynch recalled. "I have paid tribute to him over the years playing some of his many compositions. His work is a towering monument in American music."
Silver's final San Diego appearance was in May, 2001, at Dizzy's, although he did not perform. Instead, he attended a tribute concert in his honor that featured erstwhile Silver trumpeter Castellanos and now-deceased San Diego sax star Gary Lefebvre.
"Horace called me," Castellanos recalled. "He said: 'I found out you're dong a tribute to me, and I'm deeply honored and would like to attend.' I was like: 'What?!' He said he didn't drive at night any more, so (Castellanos band pianist) Mikan Zlatkovich and I picked him up in Malibu, and I got Horace a hotel room at the Hilton in the Gaslamp Quarter. We did two tribute concerts, one on Friday at the Juke Joint Cafe and then Saturday at Dizzy's. He attended both nights. During the day, I drove him around and took him to breakfast, lunch and dinner.
"After that, he called me and said: "I'm putting together a new band and want you to come to the rehearsals. (San Diego drummer) Chuck McPherson was also in the band and we all rehearsed together about three times. Then Horace stopped calling. I found out his son had moved him back to the East Coast in 2001. His phone was disconnected and that's the last I heard from him.
"Everything Horace wrote was so full of life and had so much detail. He told me that at one point 'Song For My Father' was being played on jukeboxes across the country and that's how he was able to afford his home in Mailbu. He really changed the sound of jazz in a major way."

US H-1B visas nearly run out - Apply for yours now!
07 June 2012
For concise and recent immigration information watch our news.US Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that, as of 1 June 2012, it has already received 55,600 H-1B visa cap-subject petitions out of the 65,000 available visas. Additionally, they have already received 18,700 H-1B visa petitions for foreigners with US advanced degrees out of the 20,000 available visas. This means that on 1 June 2012 there were only 9,400 visas left under the H-1B regular visa cap and 1,300 for the H-1B visa advanced degree level visa cap.
This also means nearly 95 percent of H-1B advanced degree level visas and 85 percent of the H-1B regular visa cap quota has been reached. If you are considering filing a cap-subject H-1B visa petition as part of the FY2013 quota, we highly recommend you apply as soon as possible. At the current rate of filings, it is expected that the H-1B visa advanced degree level visa cap will be reached within the next few weeks. Once the visa cap has been reached, USCIS will stop accepting H-1B petitions for FY 2013 and will not accept new applications until 1 April 2013.
These numbers show an increased demand and a much higher rate of H-1B visa filings compared to last year. Although, the rate of filings is still quite low compared to say 2008 when the H-1B visa cap was reached in the first week of the application season. Prior to the economic crisis in late 2008, the H-1B visa quota was always reached very quickly.
USCIS began accepting the applications for the popular H-1B visa program on 2 April 2012 for positions with a start date of 1 October 2012 or later. Each year only 65,000 visas are available for regular H-1B visa cap petitions for graduate level foreign workers in professional or specialty occupation positions. Also, an additional 20,000 H-1B visa cap petitions visas are made available for those with an US Master degree or higher degree awarded at an US university.
To find out more about US H-1B visas, you can check out our detailed H-1B visa section explaining everything you need to know from who can apply to what companies can sponsor you.
If you would like to apply for a US visa, WorkPermit.com can help. WorkPermit.com is a specialist visa consultancy with nearly twenty-five years of experience dealing with visa applications.

Common Emacs Lisp Functions
This page gives a list of the most useful elisp functions for text processing tasks in elisp programing. Any elisp coder would have memorized every functions in this page. That's how important they are.
Get Cursor Position
;; current cursor position (point) ;; returns the position of the beginning/end of region (region-beginning) (region-end) ;; returns the position for the end of buffer ;; (taking account of narrow-to-region) (point-max) ;; beginning of buffer has point of 1. ;; Use (point-min) to get beginning position of buffer when narrow-to-region is in effect (point-min)
Move Cursor and Search
;; move cursor to position 392 (goto-char 392) ;; move cursor by n chars (forward-char n) (backward-char n) ;; move cursor to the first char that's not a newline or tab ;; Returns the distance traveled (skip-chars-forward "\n\t") (skip-chars-backward "\n\t") ;; move cursor to the location of myStr ;; returns the new position (search-forward myStr) (search-backward myStr) ;; move cursor to the location matched by regex ;; returns the new position (search-forward-regexp myRegex) (search-backward-regexp myRegex) ;; move to beginning/end of line (beginning-of-line) (end-of-line)
Text Editing
The following functions all have the Current Buffer as target.
Insert Text
;; insert string at current cursor position (insert "i ♥ u") ;; insert part of a buffer (insert-buffer-substring-no-properties myBuffer myStartPos myEndPos) ;; insert a file's content (insert-file-contents myPath)
Delete Text
;; delete 9 chars starting at current cursor pos (delete-char 9) ;; deleting text (delete-region myStartPos myEndPos) ;; delete whole buffer content (erase-buffer)
Find/Replace Text in Buffer
Emacs Lisp: How to Find/Replace Text
Grab Text
Functions that grab text in a buffer into a string.
;; get the string from buffer (setq myStr (buffer-substring myStartPos myEndPos)) (setq myStr (buffer-substring-no-properties myStartPos myEndPos))
;; grab a thing at point. The "thing" is a semantic unit. It can be a ; word, symbol, line, sentence, filename, URL and others. ;; grab the current word (setq myStr (thing-at-point 'word)) ;; grab the current word with hyphens or underscore (setq myStr (thing-at-point 'symbol)) ;; grab the current line (setq myStr (thing-at-point 'line)) ;; grab the start and end positions of a word (setq myBoundaries (bounds-of-thing-at-point 'word))
For more about
thing-at-point, see: Emacs Lisp: Using thing-at-point.
(info "(elisp) Buffer Contents")
Functions that take a string argument.
;; length (length "abc") ; returns 3 ;; Extract a substring (substring myStr myStartPos myEndPos) ;; join strings (concat "some" "thing") ;; check if a string matches a pattern (string-match myRegex myStr) ;; get captured match ;; second argument is optional, but required if the last match is done by "string-match" (match-string 1 myStr) ;; change a given string using regex. Returns changed string. (replace-regexp-in-string myRegex myReplacement myStr) ;; split a string into parts, returns a list (split-string "ry_007_cardioid" "_") (string-to-number "3") ; change datatype (number-to-string 3) ; convert to string (format "%d" 3) ; similar to number-to-string but with fine control
Emacs has only very few functions that takes a string as argument. Any non-trivial string processing is done with a buffer. Use
with-temp-buffer, then insert your string, process it, then use
buffer-string to get the whole buffer content.
(info "(elisp) Strings and Characters")
Preserve Cursor Position
When your command moves cursor to do some work, you usually want to preserve the cursor position before the command starts, so that when user calls your code, the cursor won't end up somewhere unexpected.
;; preserve {point, mark, current buffer} (save-excursion ;; lisp code here involving moving cursor, mark, changing buffer. ) ;; preserve user's narrow-to-region ;; useful when you want to narrow-to-region in your code to work in just that region (save-restriction (narrow-to-region pos1 pos2) ;; lisp code here )
Functions that act on the buffer data type. Most buffer function assume the current buffer if no argument is given. Some requires a argument. The argument can usually be a buffer's name, or a buffer object.
;; return the name of current buffer (buffer-name) ;; return the full path of the file (buffer-file-name) ;; switch to a given buffer (set-buffer myBuffer) ;; close a given buffer (kill-buffer myBuffer) ;; use a temp buffer to manipulate string (with-temp-buffer (insert myStr) ;; manipulate the string here (buffer-string) ; get result )
{Open, Append, Write} Files
;; open a file (returns a buffer) (find-file myPath) ;; save current buffer (write to the associated file) (save-buffer) ;; like "Save As". Save current buffer, close it, and open the new saved (write-file myPath) ;; append a text block to file (append-to-file myStartPos myEndPos myPath) ;; close a buffer (kill-buffer myBuffName)
{Rename, Copy, Delete} Files
(rename-file fileName newName) (copy-file oldName newName) (delete-file fileName) (copy-directory dirPath newDirPath) ;; delete a whole dir. (new in emacs 23) (delete-directory dirPath t)
File Name Manipulation
;; get dir path (file-name-directory myFullPath) ;; get filename part (file-name-nondirectory myFullPath) ;; get filename's suffix (file-name-extension myFileName) ;; get filename sans suffix (file-name-sans-extension myFileName) ;; get relative path (file-relative-name myFilePath dirPath) ;; get full path (expand-file-name myFilePath)
or, buy something from my keyboard store.

Fashioning a Different Nominating Process for 2012
Rhodes Cook is a veteran Washington political analyst who tracks national elections and voting trends and publishes a bimonthly political newsletter. Click here for Mr. Cook's full bio.
The field of candidates for the 2012 presidential race may yet to be known. But within the next six weeks, the rules under which they must conduct their campaigns should be in place.
Meetings of the Republican National Committee early next month and its Democratic counterpart in mid-August are set to approve rules for their 2012 presidential nominating contests. If all goes as expected, the nominating process will officially start a month later than it did in 2008.
Unlike last time, the candidates would not have to spend Christmas in Des Moines, Twelfth Night in Manchester, and face a nationwide array of primaries and caucuses before Valentine's Day. Rather, the four early states – Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina – would have their contests in 2012 scattered across the month of February. Come the first Tuesday in March, the rest of the country could begin voting.
For the first time in recent memory, the two parties are on the same page when it comes to these basics of the primary calendar. Beyond that, each party is working on its own to get the states to spread their delegate-selection contests over the spring calendar, rather than have them pile up in a big heap on the first date they are allowed to vote.
In 2008, nearly half the states held their primaries or caucuses on Feb. 5, a huge nationwide votefest that was aptly called "Super Tuesday" or "Tsunami Tuesday." Republican John McCain essentially wrapped up his party's nomination that day, while Barack Obama emerged on the Democratic side poised to take the lead in his long-running battle with Hillary Clinton.
Preventing a Logjam
In 2012, the corresponding date for such a huge event would be March 6. To help prevent another early logjam, Republican rules makers are proposing that all states that vote in March award some of their delegates using proportional representation, in which candidates would be given delegates to reflect their share of the primary or caucus vote.
Forbidden in March 2012 would be straight winner-take-all contests, the preferred method of delegate distribution favored by GOP leaders in roughly a dozen states that voted on Super Tuesday in 2008. Mr. McCain's dominance in many of the larger winner-take-all states that day ensured his early nomination.
The Democrats do not have a similar card to play, since for decades they have required proportional representation in awarding their elected delegates. Instead, they may turn to a "carrot" in the form of bonus delegates in an effort to entice states both to vote later in the spring and to arrange themselves into small-scale regional clusters.
At the latest Democratic rules meeting last weekend, there was considerable discussion of a proposal to give states that voted in the last two months of the process bonuses ranging up to 10% of their base number of elected delegates. But an even greater incentive – a 15% delegate bonus – was suggested for states that agreed to take part in a mini-regional primary.
The model cited was the "Potomac primary," which was held Feb. 12, 2008, with the adjoining jurisdictions of Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia taking part. The event was hailed for maximizing voter attention and preserving candidate resources. And not coincidentally, it was won handily by the eventual Democratic nominee and current president, Mr. Obama.
Summer Meetings
The Republican rules for 2012 will be considered at the summer meeting of the Republican National Committee in Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 4-7. The Democratic rules will be up for a vote at the Democratic National Committee meeting two weeks later in St. Louis.
Of the two, the bigger hurdle will probably be on the Republican side where a two-thirds majority is required for passage. Democrats, though, have issues of their own, particularly when it comes to selecting a site large enough to hold their convention.
Democratic rules makers have reduced the share of "superdelegates" (automatic delegates by virtue of their party or elected office) from roughly 20% in 2008 to 15% in 2012, largely by increasing the number of elected delegates by about 700. That would push the total number of Democratic delegates in 2012 to around 5,000.
Republicans have already picked Tampa as the site of their next convention, the first time the GOP will meet in Florida since renominating President Richard Nixon in Miami Beach in 1972. Four cities remain on the Democratic list – three in the Midwest (Cleveland, Minneapolis and St. Louis) plus Charlotte, N.C.
A final decision is expected late this year or early next. That is about the time the Republican presidential field for 2012 will start to form, or a Democratic primary challenge to President Obama would begin to stir.
