Central News Agency
Taipei City firefighting officials said 17 elderly people have died suddenly in the city in the past two days. In neighboring New Taipei, the number of sudden deaths on Thursday alone was seven, according to municipal firefighting sources. In Taoyuan, another northern county, a citizen fell into a coma allegedly due to the frigid weather and died Thursday shortly after being rushed to hospital. Three residents in the northern area of Hsinchu were hospitalized with cold-related complaints Thursday and two of them died later in the day.
In the southern city of Tainan, three residents reportedly died suddenly Thursday of cold-related problems. The Health Promotion Administration (HPA) said the death toll is calculated in terms of direct causes of fatality such as diseases or accidents. According to the agency, frigid weather is not a direct cause of death but rather an environmental factor that could cause an illness to deteriorate. As emergency room physicians at hospitals would not necessarily mention whether a patient's health was affected by the weather, the HPA said it is not likely to formally include weather-linked deaths in the death toll. Meanwhile, the Taipei City government's Department of Social Welfare said Friday that it had opened two temporary homeless shelters the previous day as temperatures were dropping. A total of 64 homeless people took refuge at the two shelters Thursday, the department said, adding that it will collaborate with charities or non-government organizations to providing shelter to more homeless people during the winter season. According to the Central Weather Bureau, temperatures around Taiwan dropped sharply early Friday, with Danshui, Chiayi and Banquiao recording 9.5, 9.6 and 9.9 degrees, respectively. Temperatures rose slight during daytime but are expected to drop again at night, CWB officials predicted.
In the mountain areas, meanwhile, the mercury dipped below zero, with the lowest temperature recorded on Mt. Hehuan at negative 8 degrees Celcius early Friday. (By Huang Li-yuan, Chang Ming-kun and Sofia Wu)

Reinhard is A Morristown High School graduate, and her band is a staple of the Morris County music scene. As Carson and Germar acted out the story of a couple struggling through emotional tumult on their wedding day, Reinhard's soulful voice sang underneath, "But I'd stand by you while the palaces fall / And I'll pull you over the heavenly wall / We were born at the wrong time, it's been a long time / No nothing."
Carson and Germar, making their way the show's top-20 eliminations, earned praises from the judges.
"You may not have been committed to this marriage, but you've certainly been committed to every step you did there," judge Nigel Lythgoe said.
The Blaire Reinhard band's own attention may have been a bit split last night, though.
"Flipping between #sytycd and the #Giants game," the band posted on Twitter. "Was that a Casio Bossa Nova beat behind Queen Latifa's anthem"
Count that as one more Morris County connection for "So You Think You Can Dance." Butler's Amelia Lowe made it to the top 20 this year as well, but was eliminated last month.
NJ.com readers, tells us: What did you think of "No Nothing?" Of the performance?
• Butler's Amelia Lowe eliminated from 'So You Think You Can Dance'
• Butler's Amelia Lowe gets first criticism on 'So You Think You Can Dance' top 20

For the internationally recognized indie rock talent Elisabeth "Lissie" Maurus, the hills and trees of Ojai are a welcome refuge. Having recently returned from a multistop tour of Norway, where throngs of fans swarmed her and her band mates, Lissie is happy at the prospect of performing in a more intimate environment for friends and family, or in the case of her upcoming performance at Libbey Bowl in Ojai, to benefit Changing Tides orphanage in Haiti, a country still ravaged from the devastating 2010 earthquake.
Lissie's 2010 chart-topping debut album Catching a Tiger became a smash hit in the U.K., where her single "When I'm Alone" was selected as iTune's U.K. song of the year. Her success wasn't limited to Europe, however. Back home, she had already played Coachella, Austin's South by Southwest (SXSW) and Austin City Limits, and had been invited to open for Lenny Kravitz and Tom Petty. Lissie's 2008 EP Why You Runnin' came to be through a collaboration with Bill Reynolds of Band of Horses, and recently her voice gave power to several Snow Patrol singles.
To say that Lissie is a musician in demand is putting it lightly, and for an artist who suggests both Dr. Dre and Fiona Apple as musical influences, her ability to adapt to the situation is uncanny.
"I think it's really good and inspiring to be around a lot of different people, that's how you learn things you wouldn't figure out on your own," said Lissie. "But it's also nice to have time on my own because I have time to absorb everything I've been stimulated by."
Lissie moved from her hometown in Illinois to Colorado and then to Paris, where she studied for a semester before ending up in California. Regarding touring, she has adopted the laid-back California motto of enjoying the mood without controlling the scene.
"A festival in the U.K., a festival in Texas and in California; it's all different energies," she says.
Since last year's Covered Up With Flowers — an album of covers on which Nick Cave's "The Ship Song" merrily sits beside Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" — Lissie has been writing. Unlike when she began on her own, though, she's using her connections to collaborate, discovering the depth to which other minds can bring her work.
"It's kind of an all over the place kind of process," Lissie says. "Collaborating is good. When you're doing it a lot, it keeps you busy and gives you the ability to craft a song. If you're busy and you're working with people who are prolific artists, it keeps your juices flowing."
After speaking with Taffy Lowen, a board member of Changing Tides, about the orphanage founded by Ojai residents Vance and Cheryl Simms, Lissie offered her talents to perform in support of the organization. The result is the benefit concert featuring Lissie, Todd Hannigan and George Stanford.
"You're lucky when you're a musician. You have this power and ability that people are willing to listen to you, or you can get people to show up at a concert. When you're able to get that kind of enthusiasm and direct it at a cause, it's fulfilling."
After her aunt was diagnosed with ALS, Lou Gherig's Disease, Lissie provided her support toward research organizations searching for a cure, but she wouldn't call herself an activist.
"I think the level we're doing it at is the pretty straightforward altruistic level. It's one thing if you run around talking about how many people you've helped, almost like vanity, but I've never heard anyone say anything along those lines to me."
Lissie will be playing the Libbey Bowl in Ojai in support of Changing Tides Orphanage in Haiti on Friday, Aug. 17. Tickets are $15-$50. For more information, visit www.libbeybowl.com.

The Asian Pacific American Studies Program at Michigan State
The Asian Pacific American Studies Program at Michigan State University is happy to announce their 3rd annual conference to be held on April 17-18, 2009 in East Lansing, Michigan.
Global-is-Asian: Asian diaspora identities in the context of globalization
Community and identity formation have never occurred in a vacuum. However, processes of globalization increasingly facilitate connections, both real and imagined, with other parts of the world. This conference focuses on Asian populations in diaspora—that is, living outside their ancestral homelands. Though the definition of diaspora and its application to various populations has long been debated, in using the term "diaspora" we assert the importance of understanding Asian communities within a global context; as sharing key similarities but as far from homogeneous. We aim to investigate how global forces, both historical and contemporary, have reshaped diasporic forms and analytical categories for examining collective memory, political alliances, transpacific migrations and movements, social spaces and global networks. We hope to explore what Jigna Desai (2004) has called the "heterogeneous connections to both the homeland and to other diasporic locations through such forms as political commitment, imagination, memory, travel, and cultural production."
The forms of cultural production --transnational youth cultures, art, cinema, literature, internet communities, new social movements-- that emerge in the context of globalization hold exciting potential. We are interested in exploring the range of identities that are constructed by Asian diasporic communities, and how these forms are then re-shaped through interactions, on both local and global scales.
• How do transnational flows of media, popular culture, goods, and capital originating from Asian communities in other parts of the world affect the expression and negotiation of "local" Asian identities?
• How are race, gender, class, sexuality, and religious identities reshaped or reworked through the experience of being in diaspora, or by local conditions that shape that expression?
• What new forms of travel, dwelling, migration, and exile emerge in the contemporary context of globalization?
• How do transnational religious movements among Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Hindus, Buddhists and other religions play out within the context of diaspora?
• How do "Asian" groups that did not previously view themselves as sharing similarities broaden their ethnic boundaries in the context of specific racial, economic, and social policies in their countries of settlement?
• Indeed, how might the very definition of "Asian" or the assumed congruence of "race" and "culture" be redefined in the context of diaspora, as in the case of hapa, adoptee, peranakan, and others that reflect the hybridity of diaspora populations?
• How do global forces facilitate or hamper the imagining of homelands, or the creation of new ties altogether? Are homelands merely a construct to compensate for losses?
• What happens when communities who had imagined one another from afar meet though a global encounter (Chinese Americans visiting the motherland, Korean adoptees on homeland tours, Japanese Brazilians going to Japan for work)?
At the same time, we also hope to question the ways that an overemphasis on "global" or "diaspora" as academic buzzwords which, as Sau-ling Wong has noted, can result in the glossing over of local, regional and national levels of organization, and distract from nation-based identities (such as Asian American) that allow for coalition building and empowerment. These terms can become so broad and all encompassing as to lose their specificity of meaning, or merely become a means of expressing old concepts in new packaging.
We cannot ignore the continued power of nation states to define both national and local contexts that shape the constraints under which actors explore and express identities.
• In what ways do state constructions of legal or cultural citizenship define the parameters within which local communities operate?
• In the context of shifting global economies, it is also important to consider how Asian diaspora populations interact with others in their countries of residence. How do the politics of race and multiculturalism in Brazil, the UK, South Africa, the U.S. and elsewhere differentially shape the lives of Asian populations in those locations?
• How does the broader consumption of "Asian" culture through transnational Asian foods, goods, popular culture, movies, affect mainstream perceptions of Asians in a given location?
• How do neoliberal economic reforms accompanying globalization and the emergence of various Asian countries as global powers shape interactions between Asian immigrant entrepreneurs and local populations?
Please submit proposals to Joseph Villafuerte at firstname.lastname@example.com no later than January 15, 2009.
All proposals must include:
1. 250-300 word abstract
2. one-page CV, including full contact information
3. A list of any audio or visual equipment needed for the presentation.

19th century
Lake Anna State Park is a favorite local destination for campers, boaters, and families who just want to spend a summer day at the lakeside beach. For most of us, the way to the lake runs down Lawyers Road. These days, there's not much to take in with the view from this one-lane road, which passes through as quiet a stretch of Spotsylvania countryside as remains in the 21st century. But in centuries past, the western part of the county was the scene for tribal wars, slave labor, religious awakenings, whiskey barrel politics, gold mining, and Civil War armies on the march.
The Northern Neck runs from Falmouth in Stafford County all the way down to Windmill Point in Lancaster County, bounded by the Rappahannock River to the south and the Potomac River to the north. Now it's a sleepy section of Virginia but it was once called the Athens of the New World.
Famous picture book illustrator and author Tasha Tudor loved the old ways of country living and payment for her beautiful work allowed her to live the life she dreamed of. She dressed in clothes styled for the 19th century that she made herself and carried a handmade willow basket to do her grocery shopping. Tasha kept goats, chickens, Corgi dogs, as well as a garden full of herbs, flowers, and the sort of tasty fruits that would find their way into homemade pies cooked on her wood stove. These things she loved and made a part of her illustrations.
Fredericksburg port record information, collected by historian John "Jack" Johnson, is now available for searching and browsing through the CRRL history Web site.
Discover ships and captains making port in this bustling sea town or conduct a general search to get an idea of the commercial activity. For instance, on Christmas Day, 1816, a half dozen ships made port from as far away as Boston, Massachusetts, and as close as Richmond, Virginia, bringing undisclosed cargoes!
Searching the port records can be done by year, ship name, captain name, OR combinations thereof.
Down the old plank road from Fredericksburg towards Culpeper--today's Route 3 West, you'll find the still-standing and ruined remains of many a grand Virginia plantation. One of these was home to Charles Nalle, who escaped from slavery in hopes of reuniting with his already-freed wife and children. In 1860, the streets of Troy, New York, became the scene of a struggle between the Harriet Tubman's Underground Railroad supporters and the slave hunters who had been sent to retrieve him.
"By the King's Patent Granted" was a common embossing on English medicines of the 18th century. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries patent medicines reigned supreme as cures for everything from "hooping" cough to kidney ailments.
The inhabitants of early Fredericksburg enjoyed a cool drink during the hot summer months, just as we do today -- hence the massive excavations referred to as ice houses. These brick-lined, wood-floored structures were generally 15 to 20 feet in depth and 12 to 15 feet in diameter.
Dairy products, meats, and other perishables had to be kept cool, and what better way to do it than to cut the ice from the Rappahannock or a local pond during January, store it in a circular, subterranean cavity, cover it with straw, and preserve it for the warm months ahead.
This account has been compiled from the Free Lance newspaper of Fredericksburg, Virginia, October 16, 1894 through September 27, 1895, by Robert A. Hodge.
Robert Hodge reported in 1981 that this is from a report prepared by a students of Germanna Community College in circa 1979. Report is not verified and was unsigned. Indeed, there is a variation in the name Bumbrey - represented as Bumbray here, but there are stones with Bumbrey in the cemetery. The original list was accompanied by the following statements:
"The following list of names is a list of people buried in an all black cemetery in the City of Fredericksburg at the corner of Monument Avenue and Littlepage Street.
The new 17-acre park, located in northern Stafford County near Aquia Harbor, will become part of the county's own park system when it opens next year. Government Island is historically significant as the source of Aquia sandstone, used in such structures as the White House, the U.S. Capitol, Aquia Church, Gunston Hall, Kenmore, and Christ Church in Alexandria. In 2002, the House passed a resolution recognizing the historical significance of Aquia sandstone quarries on Government Island.

This week I stumbled upon a fascinating discovery by a University of Texas paleoanthropologist named John Kappelman. He, along with Turkish and German colleagues, found a 500,000-year-old skull cap of the species homo erectus in western Turkey.
The young man, because of markings on the skull, almost certainly died of tuberculosis.
The stylus points to tiny lesions 1-2 mm in size found along the rim of bone. The lesions were formed by tuberculosis that infects the brain.
Until now scientists had thought TB jumped into humans only recently, with the domestication of cattle. The disease, therefore, infected humans much earlier than previously thought. But the really fascinating insight comes when you consider the implications of such a disease existing so long ago in a species believed to be the first hominins to walk out of Africa.
Scientists believe the early humans who came out of Africa had very dark skin because they lived near the equator, where dark skin laden with melanin would have protected them from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays.
While UV rays are mostly harmful, they do have the benefit of stimulating the production of vitamin D. Doctors have long understood the importance of vitamin D to bones, but only recently have they realized that the immune system also needs the vitamin for optimum performance.
As soon as early humans migrated north into the Middle East they began receiving considerably less UV light, said Nina Jablonksi, who heads the department of anthropology at Penn State University. As melanin is highly effective at scattering UV light, early humans at northern latitudes would become deficient in vitamin D unless their diets made up for it.
It's plausible, then, that infectious diseases like tuberculosis preyed on the weak immune systems of dark-skinned early humans who left Africa, Jablonski said. Moreover, if such diseases were widespread, it would have provided an impetus for the development of lighter skin.
"This all would have favored light skin, which would have led directly to better survival and more successful reproduction outside the tropics," Jablonski said.
Now, we must be careful not to take a single data point and run with it too far. But the fact remains that scientists believe infectious diseases were quite rare in prehistoric times, when there weren't large populations to provide reservoirs for the disease to spread.
So the discovery of tuberculosis so long ago provides a tantalizing insight into the challenges early humans faced as they left Africa, and the evolutionary pressures that might have led to changes in skin color.
Simply fascinating.

The Workshop on Constructing Difference in Colonial Latin America meets to critique and to improve participants' current work and publication projects exploring the making of difference in colonial Latin America, including work on the African Diaspora, indigenous communities, and the meaning of 'casta'. The Workshop is open to a variety of interrogations with a central focus on how people in colonial Latin America imagined and maintained their identities. Workshop organizers strive to bring together a forum of researchers who employ a variety of methodological and theoretical approaches including qualitative and quantitative, cultural and social, literary and historical. Although the Workshop maintains a primary interest in the periods before, or transitions to, national independence, the workshop welcomes post-colonial and transnational interventions.
The workshop will be conceptually and thematically wide-ranging; nevertheless, many papers will particularly address the following themes:
Papers (in English or Spanish) will be circulated before the workshop. Senior and junior colleagues as well as graduate students are welcome to participate. Participants are not required to present a paper. Now in its third year, the workshop will be held on Friday afternoon & all day on Saturday--March 11 & 12, 2005--on the campus of Connecticut College in New London, Connecticut.
To participate in the workshop, send your title and abstract and/or intention to attend by December 6, 2004 to Rachel O'Toole (e-mail address given below).

The 'yid' t-shirt unriddled
By Simon Rocker, May 27, 2010
Last week I showed a Portsmouth fan leaving Wembley after the FA Cup whose t-shirt bore the legend: We've got 99 problems but a yid ain't 1.
It was all perfectly innocent, a reader has written in: he must have had the t-shirt done for the semifinal against Tottenham, whose supporters of course are known as Yids: so all the slogan meant was "at least I'm not a Tottenham fan".
But Jewish Chelsea fan Michael Coplans, who the took the original photo, remains unappeased. "I discovered that the actual wording is plundered from a Jay-Z song, I've got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one", he said. "Just as offensive, really."

The Kinect demo was also cool, although I'm wondering if it wouldn't be easier and more intuitive to just touch the screen. I guess I could see this in a scenario with a -massive- screen though, but even then: wouldn't it be easier to just use a secondary device to control the panning and zooming, rather than these gestures?

I take it your bedroom is totally blacked out as near as possible. If not, that's the first thing to do. Even tape over luminous dials on electrical equipment—although possibly removing all electrical equipment from that room and turning off wireless routers and mobile phones would be even better. (EMF radiation looks to have more effect on the body than the industry has been claiming for so long—I see your own government has said that, after reviewing the evidence, it will not allow 4G in the country.)Anything primal, or non would be suggested. This has been going on for a few weeks now, and I am not sure how long I can keep it up...
It's said a short walk just before sunset and another just before sunrise can help. The different wavelengths of the light on the skin at those times of day should help re-sync your bodyclock. Exercise should help, too.
Don't drink any caffeinated drinks after midday. Nor alcohol anywhere near bedtime.
Your bedroom should also be on the cool side.
Take a while to "wind down" before going up. All computers, TVs, etc. off a couple of hours at least before. Keep lights low, prefer table lamps to overhead lights, possibly wear red sunglasses round the house (better wavelength). Warm camomile tea can help. You might also try a small, not carbohydrate-rich, snack before bed, since blood-sugar crashes can wake you up.
Oh, if you do wake up, don't put the lights on, don't look at the clock. Doing those will tend to stymie your ability to get back to sleep.

Whidbey and Camano islands -- Island County -- sit at the gateway to Washington's extraordinary Puget Sound. Nearly every fish, marine mammal, ship and submarine that enters and leaves this vast estuary passes our shores.
More than 1,000 rivers and streams feed fresh water into Puget Sound. Where the fresh and salt water meet, our tides mix them in an ever-changing nutrient soup. Among all the estuaries in the United States, Puget Sound is second only to Chesapeake Bay in size. Puget Sound's salmon, steelhead, orcas, birds and other wildlife are priceless to our lifestyle. Their health and that of our marine waters are tied closely to our own. They are also crucial to our economy.
To focus greater awareness and education on the unique marine assets of our Island County waters, county commissioners in 2003 created the Saratoga Passage Marine Stewardship Area and the Admiralty Inlet Marine Stewardship Area. Their purpose is education and voluntary change -- not regulation.
Please explore this website to learn more about stewardship, these two, large, stewardship areas and how you can help. If you own waterfront property or live in a community with shared access rights to the shoreline, please consider becoming a Shore Steward. If you'd like to volunteer to conduct research or perform other service to benefit the marine environment, please consider applying for the training course to become a WSU Beach Watcher.
Stewardship is an ethic people embrace willingly and voluntarily - not a set of rules imposed by law. We become stewards by choice because we value clean water, safe food and a healthy environment, and want to pass these blessings to the next generation. We take responsibility to learn about, respect and care for that which is in our trust. As we learn we gain new insights about the land we own and beaches we use. We begin to see in new ways and enjoy them more. We make wiser decisions about how to manage and treat them.
Island County Commissioners created the Admiralty Inlet and Saratoga Passage Marine Stewardship Areas in 2003 at the request of the Island County Marine Resources Committee (MRC).
Currently, the Island and Snohomish MRCs are working with the Northwest Straits Commission, Tulalip Tribes and Nature Conservancy on a proposal to create a third, inter-county Port Susan Marine Stewardship Area.

"Returning to Beloit as a graduate teaching assistant this summer was very rewarding. Teaching Arabic gives me the opportunity to spread my enthusiasm for the language and its cultures. Some of my favorite memories from this summer are of students asking questions and starting discussions about aspects of Arab culture that interested them. Having started my own study of Arabic at CLS years ago, I have an appreciation for the amount of intense study required of students to succeed in an intensive language program. I remember that as a high school student, I had to quickly adjust to a heavier work load than I was used to, and it really paid off: it was great to be in an environment where I was challenged to practice and experiment with my new language skills all the time instead of just in the classroom. The immersion experience really gives students the chance to absorb the language quickly and start speaking it right away! As an instructor, it is fulfilling to teach students who have dedicated their summer to focus solely on Arabic and are committed to spending the amount of time necessary to learn it successfully."

The Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE) declared itself in opposition to the government of Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa on May 12. The CONAIE accused the president of continuing right-wing neoliberal economic and racist social policies. The harsh condemnation focused on Correa´s opposition to two key demands: the recognition of
While the CONAIE has supported a number of Correa`s programs, most social movement activists in Ecuador say that this conflict was foreseeable. Correa`s support for large scale mining and his opposition to plurinationality run up against the indigenous movement's top political priorities.
Plurinationality is a broad framework that encompasses a number of key indigenous movement demands, including cultural rights—such as bilingual education and culturally appropriate healthcare—and collective economic rights such as the requirement of affected communities' consent before any exploration or extraction of non-renewable resources, whether by State or multinational corporations.
The CONAIE's strong position against large-scale mining and for prior consent is a boon to Ecuador`s anti-mining movement, led by the National Coordinator in Defense of Life and Sovereignty. Over the past several months, the Coordinator has organized massive road blockades in
The environment is a central issue for the Ecuadorian indigenous movement, as they see cultural rights as closely tied to territorial rights and the preservation of biodiversity. The CONAIE's environmental demands extend beyond the indigenous movement and involve close collaboration with local and international environmental organizations. The CONAIE, along with a wide range of regional social movements, rejects the South American regional integration plan known as the Initiative for the Integration of Regional Infrastructure in South America (IIRSA). The development program, funded by the Inter-American Development Bank and other regional financial institutions, such as the Brazilian Development Bank and the Andean Development Corporation, consists of mega-development projects such as dams and hydroelectric plants. According to the Bank Information Center, the IIRSA "poses one of the greatest challenges to environmental sustainability and social justice today." In

Album: I Choose Jesus
If I could fly like a bird
Singing songs to the world then I would
But here I am on the ground
With troubles that I wish that I understood
But in the dark, in the sun
I believe that Your love is still good
God, You're so good
I wish that life could be
Carefree, sunny, never cloudy
But You said that I would be
In Your arms when things get crazy
So when the storm doesn't go away
I have decided to sing in the rain
We all want the easy way
No one ever prays for pain
We'd rather live the charmed life
But like a seed in the earth
If I'm gonna grow, it's gonna hurt
But after, You'll bring sunlight
But I have seen beauty come
When my world has come undone
You came through at the right time
I'm, I'm not gonna sit here doing nothing
No, I'm gonna sing Your name
Jesus, Jesus, You give me, give me something
That makes me wanna sing in the rain
Jesus, You give me something
You make me wanna sing
Doesn't matter what's gonna happen to me
Jesus, Jesus, You give me, give me something
I'm, I'm not gonna sit here doing nothing
No, I'm gonna sing in the rain

You guys are on it, thank you for a perfect match of paint. I am really pleased with your products. Looking forward to ordering more paint. Ordering was easy, delivery was prompt, and I am a happy customer. I have already given out your website to friends with a 5 star reference.
The paint you supplied based on the paint codes for my 95 Cherokee matched perfectly. When I first sprayed it on, I thought it was going to be a little dark presumably due to 19 years of fading on the Jeep.
Once dry, it matched great!
Perfect match! I'll buy from you again and have already recommended you to several friends.

"One of the biggest jobs for any leader is using our imaginations to imagine a future that's different than the one we have today. Whether inventing a new service or a new product, you have to stay ahead of competition. And you need to position that product in a place where that product doesn't exist in a future that doesn't exist yet. And then you need to lead a team of people to deliver on that new reality. How will that new product or service be brought to market? That's the leader's role, to use imagination to do that." — Scott Case

Circa 2012 weekly Agenda
By Diogenes
from Madison, WI
Disappointed with the 2012 compact weekly agenda. Month-at-a-glance gone completely. Months not clearly separated, so my month tabs leave as many as 6 days of the month under previous or next month's tab. A significant step down in utility, organization, and quality. Hope this is corrected for 2013 weekly agenda or I will find another planner.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: This has certainly been corrected for 2013 and I will be more than happy to contact you to make your 2012 agenda more usable. Thank you again for your feedback.

Disappointing 2012 Agenda
By alevengerfan
from Undisclosed
I have been a longtime fan of the Circa Agendas and products and rely on the features present in past years that have been completely omitted in this year's version. Monthly to-do and recap lists as well as monthly calendar are completely missing, and the months run together so that if you use monthly tabs you have a few days from the current month in the previous or next month's section. Dark shading in headers has also removed some of my strategic writing space. From an esthetic view, the printing is very harsh and the new font, print color, and shading makes it look cheap. Very disappointed in the new format. Bring back the tried and true!
Merchant response: Thank you for your response. Your comments have been submitted to our product development and design team for further review. We strive to ensure satisfaction with all of our products and want to be sure we make it right for you.
Disappointed with Changes
By LongtimeLevengerFan
I have purchased the compact agenda for the past 5-6 years. This year, as mentioned in previous reviews, the full month calendar pages were omitted. I have ordered the "Monthly tabs and pull out calendar" hoping to use it in combination with the agenda. I'm disappointed Levenger maintained the price of the previous style of agenda, but omitted the monthly pages.
Consistently excellent product
By JenniferL
from New York, NY
I've been using the circa agenda for years and minor changes do not inhibit funtionality. I like the added "prior month" calendar at the bottom of the right page. The "check" section for completed tasks - it's just grey, so you can write over it if you don't use it. The smaller "dotted tabs" at the bottom that you pull off once you're done with the week. I do agree that the month/year on the same page would be helpful in case you add extra notes pages or for archiving, but normally you should already know what year you're living in. Honestly, I don't use the monthly calendar pull-out and it added unnecessary bulk. The beauty of circa is that you can add what you like, so a weekly calendar should be just a weekly calendar. I've also used the junior size, but prefer the smaller compact that I can carry in my purse. I write a lot in it ranging from work meetings and personal appointments to grocery lists, and don't find that I run out of space. This agenda fits the bill every year.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By GMWB
As a long time user of circa products I am disappointed in the 2012 calendar layout. There is no monthly calendar. I am disappointed you decided to cut corners. This is not the usual quality from Levengers.
Merchant response: Thank you for your feedback; we are definitely working to restore the agendas back to their original form which includes the monthly calendar. Please call us at 1-800-544-0880 and we will be happy to make it right.
Disappointing improvements
By merrily
from Eugene, OR
I like the way the 2012 calendar recaptures wasted space from the bottom margin. However, the added "checkoff" column usurps space for writing tasks and is useless. Same for the numbered day of the year in the top right corner of every day. Two obvious corrections didn't happen: instead of "January" at top on the left page and only "2012" on the right, you should have both of these at top of each page, with the month at the outer margin of each page so that you can easily flip through weeks, when you have to look back, and know where you are. The less useful "Week 1" can be put at top of the inner margin instead of the outer margin. Finally, the font and layout look kind of washed out compared to last year, with less contrast and nothing in bold. The font itself is readable but not very attractive. I'll probably use your product forever, but hope this helps someone think about next year's design.
Merchant response: Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused you. Fortunately, our product development and design team has decided to include the monthly spread again in our 2013 versions of the agenda. The 2013 agenda will be more like the 2011 version. Please call us and we will do what it takes to make this right. Thank you so much for your feedback; all of you made a difference.

BERKELEY HEIGHTS -- The Township's tax assessor pleaded guilty last week to stealing while serving as treasurer of the Florham Park - Fairfield Elks Lodge 815, according to published reports.
Tax Assessor Konstantin "Stan" Belenky was named as a co-conspirator in a state grand jury indictment of former Morris County Tax Commissioner Anthony Crecco.
A state deputy attorney general said Mr. Belenky is cooperating with the state in its case against Mr. Crecco who is accused of conspiring with Mr. Belenky to use Elks funds to gamble at casinos in Atlantic City.
The deputy attorney general said an investigation revealed that about $475,000 in Elks funds was misappropriated but replaced over the years by the two men. About $35,000 is unaccounted for and Mr. Belenky said he would repay the missing funds.
The indictment against Mr. Crecco alleges that between August 2006 and June 2008, he conspired with Mr. Belenky to steal $278,650 for gambling purposes. The funds were used to pay off lines of credit at three Atlantic City casinos. Authorities said the markers were in Mr. Crecco's name and used to cover his and Mr. Belenky's gambling debts.
Mr. Belenky is an employee of Certified Valuations Inc., a real estate appraisal firm. As part of his plea agreement, he agreed to resign from part-time positions in Franklin Township and Berkeley Heights.
Mayor David Cohen said Mr. Belenky tendered his resignation effective June 26. He served in a part-time role for four years.
Mayor Cohen said that Mr. Belenky's responsibilities encompassed the assessment of commercial and residential properties as well as working with tax attorneys and appraisers to resolve tax appeals.
"He was never in a position to misuse township funds," the mayor said. He added that Mr. Belenky had done a fabulous job for the township and referred to the situation as "an unfortunate set of circumstances".
The mayor expects the position to be filled soon. The job has been posted online and the township has received several recommendations from tax attorneys.
