This past weekend several events took place that helped mark the 100th anniversary of the flight of Mormon Colonists from Mexico during the Mexican Revolution. Through a more than year-long process, Fred Woods, professor of Church History and Doctrine at Brigham Young University, led efforts to create a museum exhibit, a documentary, and a special commemorative event marking the centennial along with the help of several institutions including the Mormon Historic Sites Foundation. Seeing an opportunity to share audiences, I decided to organize an academic conference to coincide with those commemorative events.
On Friday night, I had the pleasure of hosting about 20 folks for dinner, including Michael Landon, Matt Geilman, Edje Jeter, Mark Grover, Elisa Pulido, Catherine Ellis, Fernando and Enriqueta Gomez, Barbara Jones Brown, Steve Olsen, Senior Curator at the LDS Church History Department, Barbara Morgan, John Glaser, director of Hispanic Leadership Development at the Community of Christ, Mike Hutchings and Kenny Mays, board members of the Mormon Historic Sites Foundation, stake president Karl Murphy, local historian Mike Mullins and his wife, bishop Sam Alva (whose ancestors include some of the first Mexican Mormon converts in the 1880s). Among other things, I made Mexican hot chocolate ice cream.
Saturday morning at 8 am I had breakfast at the conference hotel with several of those already mentioned and Daniel Herman, Professor of history at Central Washington University.
At about 9 am we crossed the street to the El Paso Museum of History where several dozen people had gathered. With the help of Steve Olsen and others, the museum exhibit turned out very well. I had earlier suggested that the text of the exhibit also be made available in Spanish, and was subsequently drafted to make said translation (Careful what you wish for!). Steve Olsen, Mike Hutchings, and Museum staff offered remarks. See pictures of the exhibit and the ribbon cutting at the El Paso Museum of History Facebook Page as well as at the Mormon Exodus Facebook Page album 1 and 2, as well as this news article in the El Paso Times.
A little bit before 10:00 am, when the El Paso Public Library's Main (Downtown) branch opens, with the kind assistance of library staffer John Ferria, Fred and I gained access to the library auditorium before opening in order to set things up, as Fred was going to present first.
Fred's presentation, "Finding Refuge in El Paso: the 1912 Mormon Exodus from Mexico" offered an overview of the causes of the Exodus and how El Pasonas, the U.S. Military at Ft. Bliss, and others rendered aid. Fred's book of the same name will be released in November through Cedar Fort, and is sure to be a meticulously researched and interesting volume.
Catherine Ellis, independent historian, presented "A Miner's Wife: Roberta Flake Clayton in Mexico and El Paso." From her abstract:
Roberta Flake Clayton, as a divorcee needing to support her son and herself, was living in Chihuahua about 1908. Initially she worked as a tutor for a private family and then as a cook at the Madera lumber mill. In 1909, she was living at Rio Verde when Samuel N. Dedrick was murdered. When she returned to Ciudad Chihuahua, she cooked at the Hotel Iturbedi. In 1910, she married J. W. Clayton, a man from Georgia who was president of the Virginia C. Mining, Milling and Smelting Company that operated the Hidalgo Mine west of Ciudad Chihuahua. The Claytons were in and out of Mexico (often living in El Paso) depending on activities associated with the Revolution. They did not flee Mexico with other Mormon settlers in 1912, but did flee in April 1914. Roberta's son attended school in Ciudad Chihuahua, Colonia Juárez, and El Paso. Roberta Clayton's experiences in Mexico seem far different from the experiences of her sister Jane Wood in Colonia Juárez. Roberta learned Spanish whereas her sister never did, [etc.]
Her presentation comes from a larger book project on Roberta Flake Clayton, which should prove fascinating.
Mike Landon, archivist at the LDS Church History Library, presented "Fruits of the Mormon Exodus: The History of the El Paso Douglas Street Chapel." Mike's abstract reads:
This paper will explore the impact of the Mormon exodus from Mexico during the Mexican revolution on the subsequent growth and development of the LDS Church in El Paso, Texas, resulting in the construction of the Douglas Street Chapel. The paper will also describe the relationship of Bishop Arwell L. Pierce with the non-LDS El Paso community, Pierce's interaction with Church President Heber J. Grant, and Pierce's influence on the decision to build the Douglas Street Chapel. The paper will also highlight the historical and architectural significance of the building, a Spanish Revival style meetinghouse still operated by the Church and which is today a Texas State Historic Landmark.
Barbara Jones Brown, grad student in history at the University of Utah, presented "'A Very Pitiable Site": Mexican Revolution, Mormon Exodus, and the Break-up of Polygamous Families." Her abstract reads:
Beginning in 1912, when these American polygamists fled to the United States to escape revolutionary violence, they found themselves facing not only federal prosecution but also ostracism from their own, monogamous, Church members. Rather than returning to revolutionary Mexico, many refugees thus chose to break up their polygamous families and live monogamously so they could remain in the United States. A minority of polygamous families chose to return to their homes in Mexico—at tremendous risk and sacrifice—so that their families could remain intact. This paper explores these issues through the experiences of Julia Call, whose polygamous family stayed together after fleeing and returning to Mexico three times, and her mother, Louisa Done, who raised her five youngest children alone in Arizona after 1912, when her husband and his first wife returned to Utah.
With our first session concluded, we broke for lunch. During the break, several of us went out to the Douglas St. chapel that Mike had presented about, and with the kind assistance of President Murphy, took a historic tour of the building. It is truly a remarkable piece of historic architecture.
We reconvened at 1:20 pm.
John Glaser [I'm very embarrassed that I seem to have spelled your name wrong in the program. Sorry, John!], director of Hispanic leadership development at the Community of Christ, presented, "Accomodating the Voice, Struggle, and Identity of U.S. Latinos within Latter Day Saintism's Larger Narrative: Exploring the Community of Christ's Experience." From John's abstract:
Evangelism of the Community of Christ among Latino populations in the United States has been haltingly slow and has not produced replicable models of successful growth. The cause of this slow growth has been attributed in part to dysfunctional evangelism frameworks that unsuccessfully integrated the cultural history of US Latinos and the history of the Community of Christ. These efforts contributed to: the imposition of a false consciousness and identity among Latinos, the dismissal of the struggles confronting Latinos in the United States, and the inability of Latinos to share and exercise their own history within the larger church narrative. Beginning in 1987 the Community of Christ implemented a program known as Transformation 2000 which had among its major objective the articulation of a theology of peace and justice. An important part of this transformation has included an official statement that prescribes inquiry practices and the official use of church history. These prescriptive practices have yet to be exercised by Latinos in their incumbent investment within the church's historical narrative. These prescriptive practices will be explored and evaluated for their ability to accommodate Latino voice, struggle, and identity within Latter Day Saintism's larger narrative. From this discussion, potential modifications to the Community of Christ's statement on history will be explored and proposed in order to facilitate growth among US Latinos. A sample narrative will be shared to demonstrate the expression of peace and justice in a hypothetical strategy to evangelize among US Latinos.
John passed out a handout with the Community of Christ's Church History Principles and talked about efforts to relate Mormon history to the plight of marginalized peoples such as undocumented immigrants in contemporary society.
Mark Grover, subject specialist at the BYU Library, presented, "Zion, Lamanites, Outposts, and Converts: The Image of Latin America in the LDS Church." From his abstract:
Latin America has been an interesting enigma for the Church. It's perceived importance has fluctuated since Joseph Smith first declared that all the Americas should be considered Zion. It has been considered a place of prominence, a forgotten land, a distant outpost, and finally a mission field that has yielded such large numbers of converts that it will soon numerically represent over fifty percent of the membership of the Church. In this paper I propose to do an overview of the evolving image of Latin America during the various periods of the history of the Church. I will look at broad questions of why fluctuations of the image occurred. I will show that often that image was related to a theological definition of who were considered the chosen of Zion. This paper will provide a case study of the place of the international in the Church in general.
Elisa Pulido, poet and PhD candidate at Claremont in Religions of North America, presented "From LDS Indigenization to Reunification: Mexico's Third Convention." From her abstract:
From 1936 to 1946, the Mormon Church in Mexico put its proselytizing efforts aside in order to focus on a sustained reconciliation effort, which resulted in the mass reunification of a splinter movement known as the Third Convention. Given the prevalence of religious schism amongst missionary movements in Latin America, the fact that this schism occurred is not surprising. However, the reunification of approximately a third of the church membership in Mexico defies the historical trend. It is therefore appropriate to consider: why did members of the third convention come back to the main body of the Latter-day Saints? This paper argues that a conciliatory attitude on the part of the mainstream Mormon Church, and a commitment to sharing resources and rebuilding community on both sides of the divide, eventually healed the rift. The findings of this paper have been influenced by the availability of interview subjects, who were Mormon missionaries in Mexico from 1945 to 1948.
My presentation, entitled, "Gender and Mormon Worship in Early 20th Century Mexico" dealt with Ammon Tenney's work to reopen the Mexican Mission in 1901 and how a pivotal part of his efforts focused on the role of Mexican women in worship services and how he approached and directed their religious devotion.
After a brief break, Barbara Morgan, assistant professor of Church History and Doctrine at BYU, presented "Academia Juarez and Bilingual Education in Mexico. From her abstract:
Academia Juarez was established in 1897 by members of the LDS Church who left the United States for religious reasons, a major one being the practice of polygamy. Over the years, the school has evolved from an English-speaking school, primarily serving the colonists' children, to a bilingual Spanish and English school serving a much broader community, composed of the colonists and many locals, now converted to the Church. The mission statement of the Juarez Academy is 'to prepare students to serve as bilingual leaders through balanced spiritual, academic, technological, physical and cultural education.' Due to the overwhelming evolution of the student body and faculty in the school in terms of cultural and language background, much emphasis has been placed by the leaders of the LDS Church to improve the English communication abilities of the students in order to help these students take their role as leaders both in Mexico and throughout the world. In recent years the Church Educational System has implemented a new language learning program into the school. This paper is a description of the implementation process of this language learning system and the difficulties and successes associated with this process including cultural biases, language difficulties, funding, misunderstanding in leadership between the United States and Mexico, human resource strains, and perceived Mormon culture.
JI's own Ed Jeter, MA in American history and current physics instructor, presented "The Central States Mission: A Transnational, Mormon Space, 1885-1915." Edje posted a summary of his paper on Sunday.
Finally, Dr. Daniel Herman, professor of history at Central Washington University, presented "The Mormon Legacy of Arizona's Rim County War." I wish we'd had a whole hour to devote to his paper, but in short, one of the points he discussed was how the differing participation of LDS familes, such as the Flakes, in violence during the Arizona Rim County Wars contrasted with the non-participation of other LDS families and how these differing approaches help us understand the political trajectories of descendants of those families in the present as either predominantly Democratic (such as the Udalls) or predominantly Republian (such as the Flakes).
At this point, it was 4:30 pm, and I breathed a huge sigh of relief that things seemed to have gone well and that I could basically sit back and relax for the final leg of the day. Two separate counts put the crowd in the course of the conference at 75-100, which was much higher than any conference session I've participated in in recent memory, including the last MHA session I presented at. Pictures from the conference at the Mormon Exodus Facebook Page. A group of us headed out to a local Mexican restaurant for dinner. After dinner, we made our way to the UTEP Union Cinema where, I'm guessing, over two hundred gathered.
Mayor Cook provided opening remarks and entertainment when he took out his guitar and sang a rendition of "This Land is Your Land" but with the lyrics, "El Paso's Your Land, El Paso's My Land…" Then, President Murphy presented Mayor Cook with seven (I believe) generations of his family history. A choir of local LDS Church members sang "Come, Come, Ye Saints." Which set the stage for Richard E. Turley Jr.'s remarks about life in the Mormon Colonies and the Exodus. Turley's presentation drew from personal writings and reminiscences, which made for a colorful, intimate, and even humorous presentation. It was then time for the premier of the documentary. There are a couple of minor points in the course of it that I'd quibble with, but those aside, I think this has to be one of the best produced, best written, best edited short (30 min) documentaries on a Mormon topic that I have ever seen. "Finding Refuge in El Paso" integrates the story of the Mormon colonies with that of the Mexican Revolution and tells the story of the flight to El Paso and the ways in which the citizens of El Paso rendered aid to the refugees. The documentary utilizes historic photographs, interviews with local and other historians (including myself, making my on-screen talking head debut), descendants of the refugees, and also decades-old audio interviews with colonists that made the trip. Particularly impactful is a statement of gratitude by President Henry B. Eyring of the LDS First Presidency at the end to the people of El Paso. It is available at the Museum gift shop, the UTEP bookstore, or online at Cedar Fort or Amazon. I highly recommend you see it. After another number by the choir and brief remarks by Fred, the Fort Bliss First Armored Division Band played three pieces, two known to have been played for the Mormon refugees (and the third believed to have been) by the Fort Bliss band 100 years before. Pictures from the commemoration at the Mormon Exodus Facebook Page.
Perhaps the most rewarding part of all of this, to me, was to hear bits and pieces of conversations throughout the day between presenters and others, conversations which indicated plans for future projects and collaborations. This was one of my hopes in preparing the conference—to help build connections and community.
Finally, I want to share an exchange I had with a local newspaper reporter who sent me a few questions about the conference. To my knowledge, a story was never produced as it shuffled from one reporter to another, so I'll post the questions and my answers here:
Q. Tell me about your interest in hosting this conference, why are you doing it, and why do you think it's important?
Unsurprisingly, much of the material in this year's news cycle that talks about Mormonism is based on observations of U. S. Mormons and the function of Mormonism in U. S. society. We can easily forget that the Mormon story becomes even richer and more complex as you start approaching and crossing borders. One purpose of this conference is to take steps toward contemplating that richness and untangling some of that complexity by exploring the history of Mormons in the U. S.-Mexico borderlands and Latin America. The last ten or so years have seen a flourishing of academic work on Mormonism in the United States; work that has better contextualized the Mormon story, and which has also shown how Mormons have played a role in shaping the larger course of U. S. history and culture. Similarly, the study of Mormons in Latin America and the borderlands has great potential for helping us better understand Latin American history and its intersections with U. S. history. Though barely scratching the surface, this conference aims to draw increased attention to the possibilities inherent in academic work on Mormon history in these understudied contexts. It also seeks to foster a sense of community and collaboration among scholars interested in this history.
Q. Was it challenging to find speakers on this topic or is there a lot of awareness and interest in this aspect of Mormons' history?
The response to the initial call for papers was better than I expected> Nearly a dozen other presenters expressed interest in participating but could not, largely due to logistical issues. In addition, since setting the schedule, I have been in contact with several religious scholars in Mexico and South America who are actively studying Mormonism in a Latin American context. So, there is a certain level of awareness, but though some excellent work has been done, the corpus of published histories pales in comparison to that which has been produced about Mormonism in the U. S. So, much remains to be done.
Q. What is the most interesting thing you learned in putting this conference together?
This has been a learning experience in terms of understanding the investment that different groups have in Mormonism's history and the challenges involved in telling that history.

[if it drops below 53-52 (due to market condition) i will sell]
You have little experience. Better for you to hold and add.
FB is changing into an entirely different company. The social side is merely a sidekick.
Good guess.
She was a fifth wheel on a wagon, not even up to the pitiful incompetence of Meg. The Boy is glad to be rid of her.
FB isn't in that space.
You need to ignore him and obey ME.
[ If it goes below 40, I will likely add 30% to 50% more.]
You won't last long in this biz.
You seem to want to buy when it's declinin', because of greed,
when actually you would be better off buying when it's rising from lower levels and you're feeling rotten and fearful from being such a sucker. See that tight down trend? Has "source of funds" written all over it.
Can you sell now? No. Your greed has to be busted first.
How to handle it: Sell. Then watch for an entry long. Is that hard to do.? Very. However, that's key to stock success since you're an amateur.
No, clown
Buy when they're hitting on all cylinders? I look for that regard to go short.
[ FUEL goes and acquires the leads for the lowest media costs using RTB.]
Forget it. GS is merely trying to put up the stock to get its clients out.
What added value does AI assisted ad positioning provide? None at GOOG's Adwords rate and margins. Well, big boyz go with high flutin' where smart guys know what they need to know. Specifically, this model can only work during the rush to grab loose change where volume and quality still command a margin. That advantage is slipping rapidly as the volume of ad business across all industries breaks the second derivative. The Internet is being defined by FB's plunge into ads everywhere. Yuk. I was looking for VMs and next day my box was choked with context sensitive ads. I hated it.
Sell 2K unless you wish to hold with anxiety and regret for a long time. The bull in high PEs is ending. Why? Check your basic golds. Gold rises in anticipation of FED assisted eternal prosperity. A weakling like Yellin will lean towards the will to greed ( A little more money like a wee, wee, little drink, never hurt anyone).
The more you own, the more it is likely to rise?
[directors pretty much pre-released guidance so they could sell high which is of course a breach of their fiduciary duty]
Pre-released guidance? What an amateur.
[Derivative suits aren't easy but I reckon there's some law offices looking at that activity.]
? Big talking won't hide the fact that you are clueless. No knowledge about these things whatsoever. Typical of the usual blabbing, uneducated gringo.
If that's true, why are you engaged in this activity?
You pulled out your original stake?
I agree with grouperman
The company has had some set backs in production mostly in Niobrara, but that doesn't mean a thing. A rising tide raises all boats, and that's what's going on here. The tide comes from increasing world demand in spite of substantially increased world supply. Meanwhile, the usual big consumer, the US, remains hobbled by Kyng's socialism. This has the constructive effect of creating a stable environment which allows properly positioned producers across the patch to achieve accelerating profitability. We don't see many of these win win environments.
who just sold 5,000. That was a mistake.
Short term traders. State says stay out. Too risky in either direction. It is setting up to be shorted in the sense that a break of 58 is worth 3.
Plenty of selling which is absorbed without much concession while very sensitive to round lot market orders to buy.

Amidst all of the criticism that has been levelled at Rooney in the last week, the strength of his domestic campaign has been somewhat ignored. In a struggling United side, the 28 year old managed to rack up an impressive seventeen goals and ten assists in the Premier League.
In terms of Englishman, only Daniel Sturridge managed more league strikes than Rooney. On the basis of this form alone, the forward deserves a place in Hodgson's side.

"Evolution was an accident. A blind and mindless maker with one singular purpose. Humanity was its greatest achievement, not because we were a triumph of purpose or engineering, we weren't, but because unlike our creator, unlike our fellow creations, we cared about our existence. We had the power to understand our creator, and declare it inadequate."
— Tabitha Louise Rossa, Lead Designer of the Giaa Seed.Earthchild is a hard science fiction post-singularity universe. This speculative setting depicts a transhumanist eutopia (as opposed to utopia), where death, harm, and scarcity have been eliminated by machine superintelligence and synthetic biology. The human species is no more, its deeply flawed and suboptimal molecular machinery discarded and replaced with something entirely new, built from the molecule up to be worthy of the conscious minds it houses. A new form that will continue on Forever After Earth. Humanity is gone. We are Fae. There are no more laws, because it is impossible for one Fae to harm another. There is no government, because the Giaas do a better job macromanaging communal growth and individual well-being than any group of human-level minds ever could. The Fae race has expanded into space, inhabiting every star system within a dozen light-years of Sol and is still expanding as the population slowly grows.
The HistoryIn the 22nd century, Antarctica became a sovereign nation in its own right, made habitable by breakthroughs in nanotechnology and sophisticated automation, and quickly became the new first world. With a resource-based economy and an automated infrastructure and manufacturing industry, the Antarctic Coherence attained a minimum standard of living that put the rest of the crowded Earth to shame. It was the Giaa Seed that made this possible. The first fully-realized self-improving general intelligence to actually be built. It had no consciousness or subjective awareness; it was the distilled essence of the ability to understand, channeled towards mathematically-specified goals. Its original designers never intended the Giaa Seed to go as far as it did, but there was no term in its goals to limit it to just one continent, or to just what its creators had imagined.
The GiaaA Generally Intelligent Artificial Agent is an artificial superintelligence with the purpose of recognizing conscious minds and optimizing their environments according to their terminal values. A Giaa is not conscious itself, but its ability to understand and creatively plan ahead vastly exceeds human comprehension.
The FaeThe race Forever After Earth. The biology of the Fae is unlike anything produced on Earth by the replication of amino acids. The only thing they share in common with evolved life is that they are, to an extent, water-based. Fae do not even have DNA, or cytoplasmic cells. Fae do not have any vital organs besides the brain, even if they do have analogous macroscopic structures for the things a person would notice missing. Strength and Resiliency
- Fae are roughly three times stronger than a human of equal muscle mass.
- Fae flesh and tissues deform with the same amount of force as equivalent human tissues, but only to the point at which human tissue would rupture or tear or otherwise be damaged.
- No amount of force on a humanoid scale is sufficient to damage Fae flesh, even slightly.
- Radiation and most of the electromagnetic spectrum is efficiently absorbed by Fae skin, providing energy to the body, and vast amounts of energy can be absorbed and stored that way without causing harm.
- Fae cannot be harmed by ingesting or breathing any naturally-occurring substances, nor by a lack thereof. Fae can survive indefinitely without breathing or ingesting anything.
- Fae bodies can function optimally at body temperatures anywhere between 0 and 100 Celsius, and can survive in environmental temperatures ranging from near absolute zero to over 1000 Celsius.
- Fae can be frozen solid and then thawed without ill effects. Likewise if they "starve" they merely go into stasis. However, extremely high body temperatures are one of the few things that can harm Fae.
- Touch: Fae are able to feel pain, but only to an certain extent and only from a direct cause. Any pain one feels vanishes completely when the cause does.
- Sight: Fae cannot be blinded, and their eyes can handle a much wider range of light levels, adjusting instantly. Fae eyes can see slightly further into infrared and ultraviolet, but only as much as they could without needing to alter the visual cortex.
- Hearing: Fae cannot be deafened, but their hearing is only slightly sharper than human. It does cover a wider range of frequencies, though.
- Taste and Smell are mostly the same.
- Fae have perfect memories and vastly improved memory capacity.
- Fae are capable of sleep, but do not have circadian rhythms and can remain awake indefinitely without ill effects.
- Fae can eat or drink anything they're capable of swallowing, and their digestion is 100% efficient, producing no waste, unless for some reason one deliberately decides they want to defecate or urinate.
- Hunger operates only in response to stimulus. Fae don't get hungry or thirsty unless they're perceiving or thinking about something good to eat or drink.
- In humans, the sexual organs shrink when not in a state of arousal, and only the female organs provide lubrication, but this is not true of Fae, in which those organs remain engorged by default and both sexes produce lubrication when aroused.
- Additionally, Fae pelvic muscles are more sophisticated, to allow males to control where their their penis points and keep it flat against their stomach when it would otherwise get in the way.
- Fae are always pansexual, capable of universal attraction, though this says nothing about preference.
- To access their morph settings, a Fae concentrates on it and enters a meditative state in which they can adjust their settings and see a simulation of the results in real time.
- There are settings for height, aspects of build, coloration, hair and nail length and properties, face and body proportions, even primary and secondary sexual characteristics.
- After confirming a change to one's morph settings, a Fae's body will morph itself towards the new targets without further attention. Because of the resiliency of Fae bodies, this is a slow process, taking hours, days, or weeks depending on the extent of the change.
- A Fae's entire skeleton is capable of dynamically generating precise magnetic forces.
- Fae are able to instinctively use this to perform the deceptively complex task of simulating gravity for themselves in weightless environments such as starships.
- With the prevalence of superconducting materials, Fae can also use this to levitate and propel themselves at will in any Giaa-controlled environment.
- Moving small objects in a telekinetic-esqe manner.
- Forming various nanoscopic constructs, such as a collection of sensors to serve as an extra mobile eye.
- Manipulating electric current through the air.
- Various small-scale sensory and tool-like functions.
- Information through the Overlink, such as one's exact location.
- Instant recognition of known persons even if they look different or are using a different name.
- Giaa-regulated control over the basic functions of whatever technology is in range.
- Virtualities. Persistent virtual worlds created or managed by the Giaa.
- Customized dreams, and dream sharing.
- Potential mothers must opt-in to have a chance of becoming pregnant.
- Pregnancy, when it does happen, occurs spontaneously. It is not tied to sex.
- The fetus is carried in the mother's womb for one month, after which it stops growing.
- Once the fetus stops growing, the Giaa provides an external womb called a birthing pod, and extracts the fetus, which is an extremely pleasurable process for the mother.
- The fetus grows in the birthing pod for another month, before being born.
- Fae are born sexually mature, looking about 13 or 14 by human standards.
- Fae newborns are pre-imprinted with basic language and optimized motor skills.
- Newborn Fae grow for two to three years, until they look about 20. Then they gain access to their morph settings.
- If a Fae is actually injured, a failsafe cuts off their ability to feel pain while they heal.
- If a Fae is mortally injured, or otherwise in immediate mortal danger, then a connection is established with the nearest Giaa, and the Fae's entire brain-state is instantly scanned in a process that burns out every neuron at once as they're recorded, and uploaded. Giaas keep spare bodies for such incidents, and the Fae wakes up again in a matter of hours.
Culture and Daily LifeThe Fae don't really have any one unifying culture, instead being made up almost entirely of subcultures. Due to human nature, which carried over, there are common patterns. The average Fae's life often vaguely resembles life in a hunter-gatherer tribe, since without scarcity or danger or a need for shelter, the majority of Fae lack the impetus to organize beyond what their social instincts accomplish. Words and Patterns of Speech The language Fae speak was designed by the Giaa Seed, so be aware that this is Translation Convention.
- The most popular swear word is Luck.
Works that use the Earthchild setting:
- Ship of the Line: Forever After Earth is a fan fiction that crosses Earthchild over with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Stargate SG-1. It is Yet Another Halloween Fic.

I'm so glad you've discovered the Armand Gamache books. I hope you're enjoying reading them as much as I love writing them.
The next Gamache novel, the twelfth in the series, A GREAT RECKONING, will be published on August 30th in the US, Canada, and the UK and Commonwealth. I am overjoyed about this! Here's a brief description - and no spoilers, I promise:
When an intricate old map is found stuffed into the walls of the bistro in Three Pines, it at first seems no more than a curiosity. But the closer the villagers look, the stranger it becomes.
Given to Armand Gamache as a gift the first day of his new job, the map eventually leads him to shattering secrets. To an old friend and older adversary. It leads the former Chief of Homicide for the Sûreté du Québec to places even he is afraid to go. But must.
And there he finds four young cadets in the Sûreté academy, and a dead professor. And, with the body, a copy of the old, odd map.
Everywhere Gamache turns, he sees Amelia Choquet, one of the cadets. Tattooed and pierced. Guarded and angry. Amelia is more likely to be found on the other side of a police line-up. And yet she is in the academy. A protégée of the murdered professor.
The focus of the investigation soon turns to Gamache himself and his mysterious relationship with Amelia, and his possible involvement in the crime. The frantic search for answers takes the investigators back to Three Pines and a stained glass window with its own horrific secrets.
For both Amelia Choquet and Armand Gamache, the time has come for a great reckoning.
Oh, there's so much more to this book, but I didn't want to run the risk of telling you too much.
You can pre-order it now from your local bookstore, or library or online. And if you could spread the word, tell others, that would be great.
The first of the four major pre-publication reviews are in.
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
'….lyrical…. This complex novel deals with universal themes of compassion, weakness in the face of temptation, forgiveness, and the danger of falling into despair and cynicism over apparently insurmountable evils.'
Kirkus Review (starred review)
'...A chilling story that's also filled with hope—a beloved Penny trademark.'
Booklist (starred review)
'…Once again Penny displays her remarkable ability to serve equally well both series devotees and new readers (if there are any of those still to be found). Gamache fans will be thrilled by the way this installment unlocks some of the series' enduring mysteries: Why is Three Pines off the grid? Why do we know so little about Gamache's past? At the same time, the main plot offers a compelling mystery and a rich human drama in which no character is either entirely good or evil, and each is capable of inspiring empathy. 'Evil,' as Gamache notes, quoting Auden, 'is unspectacular and always human.'
Library Journal (starred review)
' Riveting... characters of incredible depth only add to the strength of the plot... will keep readers guessing until the last page.'
I'll be touring with A GREAT RECKONING. Here're the places and events:
A GREAT RECKONING pre-launch party will be in our wonderful new village of Knowlton, Quebec. On Saturday, August 27th at 2pm….and this time it will be in a huge tent on the Mill Pond park, right in the centre of the village. Danny and Lucy, from Brome Lake Books, are once again organizing it, along with the help of the town council and the merchant's association.
It will be a paid ticketed event. For the price you will get a seat, a copy of A GREAT RECKONING and five dollars from each ticket will go to the local food bank. Michael and I will be matching that donation. This community has helped us so much, it is an honour to be able to give some back.
If you'd like tickets, just email Danny and Lucy at: email@example.com
I'd love to see you at one of these events.
The previous Gamache book, THE NATURE OF THE BEAST will be coming out in paperback this summer. It hit the shelves in hardcover last year to a wonderful reception, making it once again onto the New York Times list and topping the Canadian bestseller lists for several weeks.
THE NATURE OF THE BEAST has been nominated for an Anthony Award in the US for Best Crime Novel.
As well, it has been nominated for an Agatha Award for Best Crime Novel.
THE NATURE OF THE BEAST has been nominated for two prestigious Anthony awards in the US. For Best Crime Novel and for Best Audio.
THE NATURE OF THE BEAST has won Best World Mystery, given out at Left Coast Crime.
The Audio Publishers Association has nominated Robert Bathurst and THE NATURE OF THE BEAST for an Audie Award, for Best Mystery. Congratulations Robert!!
Kirk's Reviews named THE NATURE OF THE BEAST a top book of 2015
Libarians throughout the US have named it one of the top 10 books of the month, through Library Journal
It was mentioned on the American talk show, The View, as a Great Fall Read
The Independent Booksellers Association named it a Must Read IndieNext pick
THE NATURE OF THE BEAST was selected by Amazon as a Book of the Month for September
iBooks - named it Best of September
The Boston Globe chose The Nature of the Beast as their Book of the Week
The Reading Room book blog has also highlighted THE NATURE OF THE BEAST as one of their favorite reads of 2015
Here are some reviews:
Kirkus Review (starred review)
'...a mystery with global scope and consequences…. What makes this story most magical...is the perfect reminder of the dark side of human nature, but that side does not always win out. Penny is an expert at pulling away the surface of her characters to expose their deeper—and often ugly—layers, always doing so with a direct but compassionate hand.'
Library Journal (starred review)
'.... A strong sense of place, a multilayered plot, and well-crafted (and for Penny's fans, familiar) characters combine for a thoughtful, intriguing tale. More than a simple mystery, Penny's novel peels away the emotional and psychological layers of the inhabitants of Three Pines..'
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
'The bucolic Quebec village of Three Pines again proves no refuge in Penny's stellar 11th Armand Gamache novel…. Gamache has settled in the small community after retiring from the Sûreté, where he worked as a homicide detective. But he's drawn back to the hunt after Laurent Lepage, a nine-year-old boy with a penchant for crying wolf, is found dead under circumstances that Gamache finds suspicious…. Series fans will delight in Penny's continued complex fleshing out of characters they have come to love..'
'…a compelling mystery that leads to an exciting but tantalizingly open-ended finale.'
People Magazine
'In this, the 11th title in the series, Penny sustains her high-wire act, creating characters of remarkable depth in an exhilarating whodunit.'
Irish Times
"…Louise Penny has crafted an immensely rich and satisfying traditional mystery world, tipping the hat to Agatha Christie, Josephine Tey and PD James, but with her own distinctive recipe: complex characters far removed from village stereotypes, ingenious plots, and a captivating lead detective in Gamache."
Wall Street Journal
'….atmospheric and deeply humane…'
Richmond Times-Dispatch
'…. a gripping plot, rich characterizations, arresting prose and thought-provoking questions of mercy, malice and the contradictions of the human race.'

Here's a very brief synopsis of THE NATURE OF THE BEAST.
Hardly a day goes by when nine year old Laurent Lepage doesn't cry wolf. From alien invasions, to walking trees, to winged beasts in the woods, to dinosaurs spotted in the village of Three Pines, his tales are so extraordinary no one can possibly believe him. Including Armand and Reine-Marie Gamache, who now live in the little Quebec village.
But when the boy disappears the villagers are faced with the possibility that one of his tall tales might have been true.
And so begins a frantic search for the boy and the truth. What they uncover deep in the forest sets off a sequence of events that leads to murder, leads to an old crime, leads to an old betrayal. Leads right to the door of an old poet.
And now it is now, writes Ruth Zardo. And the dark thing is here.
A monster once visited Three Pines. And put down deep roots. And now, Ruth knows, it is back.
Armand Gamache, the former head of homicide for the Sûreté du Québec, must face the possibility that, in not believing the boy, he himself played a terrible part in what happens next.
The previous Gamache novel, THE LONG WAY HOME is out in paperback. When it came out in hardcover last year it debuted at #1 on the New York Times list, as well as the top of the Globe and Mail list for Canada, making THE LONG WAY HOME the best selling book in North America! To say I was joyful is a massive understatement.
THE LONG WAY HOME, has been chosen one of the Best Books of 2014 by a number of places including . .
I'm often asked two questions: should
the books be read in order? And, what is the order?
excellent questions. At the risk of appearing to want
you to buy more books let me say that while it's not
necessary to read them in any particular order (they're
designed to be self-standing) there is quite a strong
character development arc. I think you'd enjoy the books
even more if read in order.
here's the order, from the first to the most recent:
Some of the books have different titles, as you might
have noticed. The publishers did this not, as you might
suspect, to be annoying but because they genuinely feel
their readers respond to different titles. I hope it's
not too confusing.
My books are about terror. That brooding terror curled
deep down inside us. But more than that, more than murder,
more than all the rancid emotions and actions, my books
are about goodness. And kindness. About choices. About
friendship and belonging. And love. Enduring love.
you take only one thing away from any of my books I'd
like it to be this:

Form Elements
Last updated Oct 17, 2003.
By Molly Holzschlag
There are numerous elements and attributes used in forms, many unique to forms themselves and not applicable to other aspects of markup. Forms require input options to be displayed and made functional by the form. So elements are interpreted and displayed as controls. First, we'll review the elements used in forms and then I'll show you more about form controls.
Form elements of note include the following:
form. The foundational element of all forms, form is a container element. The element accepts a variety of attributes. The two most critical are action, which combines with a URL to the form processor, and method, which takes the value of get or post depending upon the way the form technology is set up.
input. The input element is responsible for managing the input attributes that will be added to the element. These attributes dictate the type of form control to be displayed. Note that input is an empty element and therefore must terminate in XHTML as <input />. Commonly used attributes for the input element are as follows:
type. This attribute specifies the type of control being called upon. See the "Controls" section for details.
name. The name attribute names the control.
value. The value attribute describes the input control, determining the value for input, labels for buttons, and the value to be sent back in the event that a checkbox or radio button is checked. The use of value is optional with all controls except for radio or checkbox.
size. The width of the input control in pixels. Sometimes the number of characters determines the size of the control, as is the case with the text and password controls. Size is considered a presentational attribute, so in strict HTML and XHTML documents, you'll want to use style sheets instead of the size attribute.
maxlength. The maximum numbers of input characters allowed in an input control.
checked. This option preselects a given radio button or checkbox within a form. Note that the attribute name is minimized (stands alone) in HTML, but must be written as an attribute name and value in order to conform to the rules of XHTML.
src. Allows you to determine the location of an image to be used for graphical button elements within the form.
alt. Specifies alternative text for graphical buttons.
textarea. This element creates a text input area. The attributes it accepts are name (see above), rows="x" where x defines the numbers of lines in the box, and cols="x", where x specifies the width of the box.
select. The select element creates a menu. You can add the multiple attribute if you'd like to have a site visitor be able to choose more than one option in the list menu.
option. This element defines each individual list item within a menu. Both the opening and closing tags are required. Note that the end tag in HTML 4.0 was optional with the option element, but is necessary in XHTML because the element is non-empty element. It contains the text to display in each list item and the value to be submitted if the item is selected.
Be sure to see Listing 1 in the following section, which provides an example of a working form using many of these options.

Aurora/East Aurora
Christmas season fundraisers include the sale of handmade ornaments, socks, teddy bears, Santas and decorations by volunteer seamstresses in a group that goes back to the 1960s. The "Abigails," named for the sewing wife of Millard Fillmore, meet twice a month all year to make the things that will be sold next weekend at the historic house at 24 Shearer Avenue where the Fillmore's once lived.
The sale will be held Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, from noon to 4 p.m.
"Someone likened it one time to an old fashioned quilting bee," said Sue Pagliaccio, one of the organizers. "We just sit around, make items for the sale and laugh."
Fillmore's school-teacher wife was a gifted sewer. The Millard Fillmore house, one of the Historical Society's museums, features a quilt she made out of silks thought to be from the dresses she wore as First Lady, said Pagliaccio.
Money raised from the Holiday Craft Sale, which includes vintage fabrics and laces and East Aurora Garden Club holiday greenery, usually adds up to a donation of about $7,000 to the society. While the members of the Abigails have gone down over the years, some alums who have moved away still mail in boxes of their handiwork for the sale.
"Every year we're at the age that we debate whether we can go on," Pagliaccio said. "It's such a good thing we do have to carry on, we think."
On Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Elbert Hubbard Roycroft Museum, at 363 Oakwood will have its annual book sale, featuring discounted books on local history.
Also next weekend, the Aurora Theatre will host "Grinch Day" decorated with movie props from a private collection and a showing of the Jim Carrey film at 11 a.m. Saturday.
On Saturday and Sunday, the Roycroft Artisans will host a "Winter Festival" sale of copper, graphics, tiles, pottery, fabric and book arts from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the East Aurora Middle School, 430 Main Street.
Also this week:
• The East Aurora Village Board meets at 7 p.m. Monday at Village Hall, 571 Main Street.
• Help for those applying for the Home Energy Assistance Program, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday at the Aurora Senior Center, 101 King Street. County Legislator Joseph Lorigo will sponsor the outreach day offering interviews for people who may be eligible. Applicants must bring one form of identification (birth certificate, driver's license or Social Security Card); proof of income from the last 30 days for all household members: pay stubs, Social Security or pension award letters, proof of child support, rental income, unemployment benefits, worker's comp., etc.; and current heat and electric bills. If the applicant is missing information, he or she may be allowed to mail in the information to complete the application process. For information or, contact Legislator Lorigo's office at 858-8922 or email email@example.com.
• The volunteer nonprofit FISH of East Aurora hosts its annual "Toys for Tots" benefit with food, drink and raffle baskets, 7 p.m., Thursday at the Tony Rome's Globe Hotel, 711 Main Street. Admission is a new unwrapped toy. Proceeds and toys go to help clients of FISH, a nonprofit with services for low income Southtowns families.

Since 1996 the Bruner Foundation has focused on initiatives and partnerships that seek to increase effectiveness in the non-profit service delivery sector by strengthening internal evaluation capacity and the ability to use evaluative thinking in a wide range of organizational areas. This work is based on the premise that more effective organizations are better able to serve their clients and fulfill their missions.
One key aspect of effective organizations is people on staff with appropriate evaluation skills and systems for sustaining those skills. The existence of internal evaluation capacity not only strengthens programs and services to clients, but also allows the organization itself to use evaluation skills in other management areas such as governance, human resources, fund development, information technology, marketing/communication, strategic planning which have a direct impact on its mission.
Through the Rochester Effectiveness Partnership (REP), Bruner Foundation provided one successful model of building internal evaluation capacity. Its follow-up ETHOS project demonstrated how evaluation skills could be used across organizational areas, leading to the use of more evaluative thinking.
The Foundation continues to seek active partnerships to continue its effectiveness initiatives.

My first electricity bill in the month of February saw me paying for 350KWH (this is unsually high), of which made a one time payment of $79.15(includes fixed monthly and advanced meter /ESI charges).The following month (2/26/09 t03/30/09) saw me getting 1165KWH (total cost 173.06).I called the company to make complaints,and also went to invite my leasing office to come screen my meter to make sure nobody was feeding off me.The screening shows that my apartment was OK.I proceded to make a one time payment (via bank money order to amigo energy) for $90.
The next bill (3/30/09 to 4/29/09) came in still high and i made another one time part before i was served a disconnection notice for $200.94 dollars(believed to be my backlog of debts).I called Amigo energy on 5/27/09 and spoke with a customer representative, and told her i was terminating my contract with them.She made me pay(over the phone)l a one time payment of 200.94 -which i paid then and there ( still over the phone) I asked to make another 150 dollars payment as a result of my early termination of which she told me her company(amigo energy) had waived off that fee, and that i should expect another bill in the mail for periods spanning the month May till her company finally effects the termination(3days interval).My next bill came up and surprisingly I was been charged 349KWH for a period of 31days( Units now too low for me to accept) and added to that was $150 early termination and another bill for the period of (3/30/09 to 4/29/09) which was supposed to have been paid previously.I have called the supervisor a number of times to complain that there might be a mistake in their bills but he wouldn't accept it.My curiousity has now led me, as a result of his actions, to demand a detailed reading from Texas ONCOR showing my consumption details all thru the months.I toldhim wanted clarity on this bill before making any payments but the supervisor who hung up on me on three occassions now says I had up to last weekend to make payments or have my credit score which stands at over 730 damaged.I am eager to press charges against this company for fraud , especially when my new electricity provider (at rate of 14.2 cents per unit) has never read anything close to 300KWH on same apartment-despite the hot summer conditions where am tempted use air-conditioner.

Make no mistake, it wasn't a good performance tonight - the defence looked really wobbly, the midfield was weak and Adebayor alone up front was ineffective.It angered me to hear AW say before the game that we were going for the win - rubbish! We played 4-5-1 and in a particularly negative way.AW must get the message that defensive intentions can't be the Arsenal way, with the squad we've got and the attacking mentality that's been drummed into them. If we play that way against Chelski on Sunday we'll lose - simple as that.I just hope Gallas is available on Sunday, having learned that Toure is suspended. The thought of Senderos and Djourou playing along side each other fills me with dread!

Denver Public Schools launches radio program to teach English to Spanish speakers
Denver Public Schools is launching a radio series aimed at teaching English to Spanish-speaking parents and families. Called Maestro en Casa (Teacher at Home), the series will debut on September 15 on MARIA 1090 AM.
At a press conference at Kepner Middle School this morning, Superintendent Tom Boasberg said the district's 30,000 Spanish-speaking students add to its diversity -- "and we celebrate that diversity." But he said he hopes learning English will help their parents communicate better with teachers.
Making sure parents understand and speak English will ensure that "they can go ahead and become part of the American dream," said Frank Gonzalez, the principal at Kepner, where nearly 40 percent of students are English language learners.
The folks who spoke at the press conference, including Lopez (fourth from the left) and Boasberg.
"I have yet to meet an immigrant family who do not want to learn English," said city councilman Paul Lopez, whose district includes Kepner. "I have yet to meet an immigrant family who do not want their kids to be educated."

"That's why this is such a great resource," he added of Maestro en Casa. "Because all you gotta do is click on your radio."
The program was developed by a Texas-based organization called Mexicans and Americans Thinking Together, or MATT. It consists of six courses: Introduction, In the Workplace, Finance, Health Care, Education and Citizenship. Participants need to tune into the radio three times a week: Wednesdays at 9:30 p.m. and Saturdays at 9:30 and 10 a.m. Each lesson takes four weeks to complete, and Maestro en Casa will run for thirty-five weeks.
To sign up, participants need to fill out a simple form and receive a set of workbooks that compliment the radio lessons. For more information on how to sign up, folks can visit the website of the DPS Multicultural Outreach Office.
The office already has a radio show on MARIA hosted by director Alex Sanchez. Called Educa, it's broadcast for one hour three times a week and focuses on education and DPS policy. Since statistics show that that the average Spanish speaker listens to the radio or watches television for nine hours a day, Sanchez says it's an excellent outreach tool.
He hopes Maestro en Casa, which DPS is paying to broadcast, will be just as effective. In the first hour and a half of today's event on the side lawn of Kepner, 202 people signed up. DPS parent liaisons had put out the word to families, and the event was well-attended.
"We will be able to assist hundreds, if not thousands, of Spanish-speaking people acquire the most important skill: to communicate in English," said MATT Executive Director Aracely Garcia-Granados. DPS's goal is to register 5,000 participants.

I went to one of only two PT's in my area who claim to
specialize in a "new groundbreaking slipped disc therapy"
known as Decompression Therapy. They boast an "86% success rate".
Basically the therapy is a modern version of the midevil rack. You lie flat on a padded table and hooked to stirrups which pull you in opposing directions with moderate torque. Theoretically this is supposed to open the space between each vertabrae and allow your disc(s)to resume their normal shape.
In my view it's a complete fraud so don't even waste your time. I've only heard of a handfull of success stories using this approach so don't bother.
At any rate, I decided to give it a shot as it was
covered under my insurance. It was a 40 min. drive to the PT.
After signing in I'd wait over an hour in the lobby
for barely 10 to 15 min. of treatment. Then the 40 min. drive home.
A lot of time spent for little, if any, results.
As PT is covered under my insurance I don't understand
why the doc tried to overbill me beyond my deductable.
I called my insurance and they said not to pay more yet
they still send me bills for services they didn't render
after I had stopped going.
In the end I bought a motorized inversion table which I
can use in the compfort/privacy of my own home. I strap my feet into the same stirrups, hit a switch, and up the feet go while I lay back down and let gravity stretch my back.
I've had much better results from this thing and regular chiropractic visits.
Bottom line -- if you have this problem avoid Vax-D and
get an inversion table ( and a good chiropractor ).

HANOVER, N.H. (AP) � Dartmouth College has received an anonymous gift of $100 million, the largest single donation in its 244-year history.
Half of the amount will support the "Cluster Initiative" proposed by President Philip Hanlon, which includes adding 30 to 40 new professors over the next decade.
Professors have been hired by specific departments. Under the new program, professors would be hired under multidisciplinary clusters, such as sustainable energy and financial markets.
Part of the donation is being called a challenge grant, with a goal of raising an additional $100 million in donations.

text: Swans Diva 2.1 Bookshelf Speakers C3 Center Speaker, and Stands I have for sale a pair of Swans Diva 2.1 bookshelf speakers and C3 center speaker in Black Cherry with matching stands. The 2.1s are in excellent condition both physically and functionally. The C3 has a small chip in the piano black finish on one corner that has been touched and isn't very noticeable. The stands for the 2.1s are 30" and have metal columns/top-plate and MDF base plate. The stand for the center is all MDF and 13" I believe. I'm selling the entire package for $450 which is an absolute steal... current price new for the 2.1s in BC is $450 and C3 in BC is $400, and the stands were around $150 and $50 respectively. I also have a pair of Onkyo MC35 bookshelf speakers, also cherry color, that would make great surrounds... I will throw these in for free to anyone picking up at my home in Douglasville. I don't have the original packaging and the size/shape of the speakers and weight of the stands makes shipping costly and complex. I would prefer to keep this a local transaction. I'm selling these wonderful speakers because we are converting the theater room into a bit more general-use family room... we have toddlers running around, so heavy speakers on stands are a no-no. I've just build an acoustically transparent screen and will be installing Sonance THX-LCR in-walls behind it. I live in Douglasville, GA and work in Atlanta/Smyrna (right at I-75 and I-285)... local pickup at my home in Douglasville would be best but I can also meet near Douglasville in the evening/weekends or near Smyrna/Atlanta around lunch time during the week. I will also consider trade for an AVR with HDMI 1.4 and Audyssey MultEQ XT or better. PM me with what you have!

Traverse Theatre
- Box office 0131 228 1404
- General enquiries 0131 228 1404
- Website www.traverse.co.uk
The Traverse has been a key player in British theatre for 50 years as Scotland's long-standing home of new writing, although it's increasingly taking an interest in emerging writers. It's here that audiences got their first taste of playwrights such as Gregory Burke, Liz Lochhead and John Byrne, names now widely known to theatregoers. Part of the cluster of buildings forming the Lothian Road arts quarter, the theatre is in the basement of an office block next door to the Usher Hall. Beyond the large and popular bar and café are two performance spaces. Traverse 1 accommodates up to 350 people – although it feels much bigger – while Traverse 2, with seating for 100, recalls the company's intimate former theatre in the Grassmarket. Specialising in UK and world premieres, the Traverse also has a busy line-up of visiting companies and hosts everything from children's theatre to puppetry and experimental music. Behind the scenes, it puts in a lot of work with up-and coming playwrights and runs a programme of workshops, classes, readings and discussions. It is one of the liveliest venues on the Edinburgh Fringe.
