A Bivins family charity cleared the first hurdle Monday toward using an estate in the residential neighborhood bearing the family's name for offices.
The Amarillo Planning and Zoning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend the city grant the Mary E. Bivins Foundation the
specific-use permit necessary for the nonprofit to move into the family's 1932 estate on Southwest 16th Avenue at Lamar Street.
Amarillo Planning and Zoning Commissioner Judy Day, who is president of the Bivins Foundation, abstained from voting on the matter.
City zoning laws require the specific-use permit because the 8,000-square-foot home is on property zoned only for residential use.
The idea met with no opposition Monday from adjacent property owners the city notified, which it must do under state law.
The foundation intends to convert about 3,200 square feet inside the home for office use and to expand a driveway that runs behind the home to create 12 parking spaces, a city staff report said.
A small, unlit plaque on a brick column at the entrance gates will be the only signage added, and the parking lot will be lit by 4-foot-tall covered light posts, the report said.
The matter next must go to the Amarillo City Commission for approval and should be placed on that panel's Aug. 21 agenda, Planning Director Kelley Shaw said. Zoning ordinances must be approved in two separate city commission votes.
The home belonged to Betty Teel Bivins Lovell at the time of her death in 2008. She was the granddaughter-in-law of foundation founder Mary E. Bivins, according to Bob Gibson, a family employee.
The home was built by Miles G. and Myda Bivins, Mary E. Bivins' son and daughter-in-law, Gibson said.
The planning commission also tabled Owen Bybee's request to rezone a 1.5-acre tract near the intersection of Olympia and Ventura drives in southwest Amarillo in hopes Bybee might meet with property owners concerned about his plan to build townhomes there.
Residents of the adjacent Hollywood/Scotsman addition presented a petition with signatures of more than 45 residents opposed to townhomes.
Those residents would prefer that the tract, now an inactive tree farm, be redeveloped as single-family homes. They said townhouses might hurt the value of their houses.

I think it has officially turned into a tradition – for me to make an entry every October 11 (or thereabout) and register that another year has passed. Yup, it's the birthday again, this time 29, and it has arrived with no fanfare whatsoever. Not only because it is a totally insignificant age, but more importantly because every year that passes I am more laid back and care a little less about my birthday being a big deal. But on the flip side, I take pause this day every year now to evaluate where things are, how far they've come, and, most importantly, where I want them to go.
Generally speaking, all is well in birthday land.
Health-wise, I could be better. Sure I should be working out more often, but that's a given. I am finding myself feeling stiffer and achier than usual these days, and it is 100% correlated with my mood and, dare I say, with my age. For me it is a different situation since technically I have always felt older than I am, physically speaking, but now it's catching up to me and I'm feeling older because I am older.
Scary thought of the day: if I feel this way when I turn 29, what will 59 feel like? Oy.

Skip to comments.Suggestion of a married Jesus - Ancient papyrus shows that some early Christians believed he wed
Posted on 09/18/2012 11:20:37 AM PDT by Red Badger
Four words on a previously unknown papyrus fragment provide the first evidence that some early Christians believed Jesus had been married, Harvard Professor Karen King told the 10th International Congress of Coptic Studies today.
King, the Hollis Professor of Divinity at Harvard Divinity School, announced the existence of the ancient text at the congress meeting, held every four years and hosted this year by the Vaticans Institutum Patristicum Augustinianum in Rome. The four words that appear on the fragment translate to Jesus said to them, my wife. The words, written in Coptic, a language of Egyptian Christians, are on a papyrus fragment of about one and a half inches by three inches.
Christian tradition has long held that Jesus was not married, even though no reliable historical evidence exists to support that claim, King said. This new gospel doesnt prove that Jesus was married, but it tells us that the whole question only came up as part of vociferous debates about sexuality and marriage. From the very beginning, Christians disagreed about whether it was better not to marry, but it was over a century after Jesus death before they began appealing to Jesus marital status to support their positions.
Roger Bagnall, director of the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World in New York City, believes the fragment to be authentic based on examination of the papyrus and the handwriting. Ariel Shisha-Halevy, a Coptic expert at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, considers it likely to be authentic on the basis of language and grammar, King said. Final judgment on the fragment, King said, depends on further examination by colleagues and further testing, especially of the chemical composition of the ink.
One side of the fragment contains eight incomplete lines of handwriting, while the other side is badly damaged and the ink so faded that only three words and a few individual letters are still visible, even with infrared photography and computer photo enhancement. Despite its tiny size and poor condition, King said, the fragment provides tantalizing glimpses into issues about family, discipleship, and marriage that concerned ancient Christians.
King and colleague AnneMarie Luijendijk, an associate professor of religion at Princeton University, believe that the fragment is part of a newly discovered gospel. Their analysis of the fragment is scheduled for publication in the January issue of Harvard Theological Review, a peer-reviewed journal.
King has posted a preliminary draft of the paper, an extensive question-and-answer segment on the fragment and its meaning, and images of it, on a page on the Divinity School website.
The brownish-yellow, tattered fragment belongs to an anonymous private collector who contacted King to help translate and analyze it. The collector provided King with a letter from the early 1980s indicating that Professor Gerhard Fecht from the faculty of Egyptology at the Free University in Berlin believed it to be evidence for a possible marriage of Jesus.
King said that when the owner first contacted her about the papyrus, in 2010, I didnt believe it was authentic, and told him I wasnt interested. But the owner was persistent, so in December 2011, King invited him to bring it to her at Harvard. After examining it, in March King carried the fragment to New York and, together with Luijendijk, took it to Bagnall to be authenticated. When Bagnalls examination of the handwriting, ways that the ink had penetrated and interacted with the papyrus, and other factors confirmed its likely authenticity, work on the analysis and interpretation of the fragment began in earnest, King said.
Little is known about the discovery of the fragment, but it is believed to have come from Egypt because it is written in Coptic, the form of the Egyptian language used by Christians there during the Roman imperial period. Luijendijk suggested that a fragment this damaged probably came from an ancient garbage heap like all of the earliest scraps of the New Testament. Because there is writing on both sides of the fragment, it clearly belongs to an ancient book, or codex, and not a scroll, she said.
The gospel of which the fragment is but a small part, which King and Luijendijk have named the Gospel of Jesus Wife for reference purposes, was probably originally written in Greek, the two professors said, and only later translated into Coptic for use among congregations of Coptic-speaking Christians. King dated the time it was written to the second half of the second century because it shows close connections to other newly discovered gospels written at that time, especially the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Mary, and the Gospel of Philip.
Like those gospels, it was probably ascribed to one or more of Jesus closest followers, but the actual author would have remained unknown even if more of it had survived. As it stands, the remaining piece is too small to tell us anything more about who may have composed, read, or circulated the new gospel, King said.
The main topic of the dialogue between Jesus and his disciples is one that deeply concerned early Christians, who were asked to put loyalty to Jesus before their natal families, as the New Testament gospels show. Christians were talking about themselves as a family, with God the father, his son Jesus, and members as brothers and sisters. Twice in the tiny fragment, Jesus speaks of his mother and once of his wife one of whom is identified as Mary. The disciples discuss whether Mary is worthy, and Jesus states that she can be my disciple. Although less clear, it may be that by portraying Jesus as married, the Gospel of Jesus Wife conveys a positive theological message about marriage and sexuality, perhaps similar to the Gospel of Philips view that pure marriage can be an image of divine unity and creativity.
From the very beginning, Christians disagreed about whether they should marry or be celibate. But, King notes, it was not until around 200 that there is the earliest extant claim that Jesus did not marry, recorded by Clement of Alexandria. He wrote of Christians who claimed that marriage is fornication instituted by the devil, and said that people should emulate Jesus in not marrying, King said. A decade or two later, she said, Tertullian of Carthage in North Africa declared that Jesus was entirely unmarried, and Christians should aim for a similar condition. Yet Tertullian did not condemn sexual relations altogether, allowing for one marriage, although he denounced not only divorce, but even remarriage for widows and widowers as overindulgence. Nearly a century earlier, the New Testament letter of 1 Timothy had warned that people who forbid marriage are following the doctrines of demons, although it didnt claim Jesus was married to support that point.
In the end, the view that dominated would claim celibacy as the highest form of Christian sexual virtue, while conceding marriage for the sake of reproduction alone. The Gospel of Jesus Wife, if it was originally written in the late second century, suggests that the whole question of Jesus marital status only came up over a century after Jesus died as part of vociferous debates about sexuality and marriage, King said. King noted that contemporary debates over celibate clergy, the roles of women, sexuality, and marriage demonstrate that the issues were far from resolved.
The discovery of this new gospel, King said, offers an occasion to rethink what we thought we knew by asking what role claims about Jesus marital status played historically in early Christian controversies over marriage, celibacy, and family. Christian tradition preserved only those voices that claimed Jesus never married. The Gospel of Jesus Wife now shows that some Christians thought otherwise.

Blasphemy! Behead the infidels.
Oh wait, wrong religion.
This thread should be electric, and with sparks flying.
This scrap of paper is not worth wiping your butt with as long as its provenance is unknown.
This is crap in terms of scholarship. Could be a papyrus from Gnostic circles, if it's not entirely forged.
The stupid professor says its provenance is a mystery. How convenient. How convenient that it comes from a private collector. The great papyri collections all document where the fragments were found. If this is a great collector of papyri, he wasted his money buying something with no known provenance. Or, if he knows the provenance but won't say, that's the smoking gun proof that the provenance, if made public would discredit the piece of (s)crap entirely.
And the idiot fools at the NYTimes and the Harvard PR clowns eat it up.
Journalists are crap-eaters.
Personally, I would have more faith in the authenticity of this artifact if it weren't held by an ultra liberal, left wing, ivy league institution.
Oh wait, wrong religion.
Oh no! Now you did it! You've got 'em going again!
It was given to the Harvard professor by a private collector...
LOOK!, It is Obama's LFCOB!
It may well be an authentic Gnosic (s)crap of papyrus. (The stupid professor herself links it to other Gnostic writings.)
If so, it's not surprising—the Gnostics made claims like this. If that's the provenance it's not new and the professor is trying to ride the supposed novelty to star-status in Academia.
But because she won't or can't say anything about provenance, she has nothing, zero, nada, in terms of scholarly value. She tries to make it scholarly valuable by treating the Gnostic gospels as equal to the canonical Gospels and by claiming that it offers something new.
I sure hope that she gets torn to shreds at the Coptic conference, but chances are good they'll refuse to tear into her like she deserves to be torn into.
Or, perhaps, to them she'll reveal the provenance and settle for an infinitesimal discovery-credit (since it probably comes from Gnostic circles) after the journolist impact-concrete has had time to set and the sound-byte lies have embedded themselves in the popular mind.
Ten bucks says the end result will be about Jesus referring to the church as his "Bride" - but some doofus is trying to gin up publicity by creating a "controversy".
Oh good grief!
This is blasphemy.
I think I'll burn down the White House.
Nah, it's Christian...............
It was not until the Councils of Nicea decided upon the "official" version of Christianity that Jesus' divinity became widely accepted. Many early Christian sects believed that he was a man, a divinely inspired and perhaps divinely conceived man, but a man, with the traditional needs and wants of a man. Why, then, would he not have married and produced children, as instructed by God (be fruitful and multiply)? There is nothing wrong with that, except in the minds of certain individuals who were and are more concerned with power and control than with faith. Heresy, I know. Whatever.
Some poeple believe in unicorns. Doesn't make it so...
now if the translation was "bride", instead of "wife" it would be somewhat believable, since the Church has described itself as the Bride of Christ from the beginning.
It does appear to be a genuine fourth-century piece of papyrus.
Sorry, Charlie. The earliest doubts were NOT about his divinity. They were about his humanity. The Gnostics fullly believed in his divinity. They just couldn't see how the divine could really be human. The Docetists, ditto. Ditto for the Sabellians and Modalists. That covers the first 200 years.
Challenges to his divinity only emerged in the 200s (Adoptionism). Belief in his divinity was there from the start, among those who believed in his Resurrection. Of course most people didn't believe in that—they thought he was just another Jewish prophet and they WEREN'T called Christians.
Anyone who was a Christian did believe in his divinity.
The view you describe was common among 19thc Liberals. They conveniently overlooked the fact that the earliest controversies AMONG CHRISTIANS had to do with challenges to his humanity.
Inconvenient truths.
Jesus said that the foxes have holes and the birds have nests, but He didn't have a place to lay His head. Would Jesus have had a homeless wife and children? No. That would be irresponsible and that would be a sin.
This changes nothing! i have more respect for Jesus if he could do what he did and be married! If he was married to Mary Magdaline, a widow, with a dubious past, he saved her from a life of sin. That's something I can believe he would do. After his resurrection it was she at the empty tomb. But, there is nothing that would change a thing in his teachings, and maybe something that might explain some of the things he said. He needed to experience all of what it is to be human—that could include marriage.
You understand that I was using the word "stupid" off the cuff?
It is stoooooppppppidd for a scholar of her rank to announce this discovery while being unable or unwilling to give the provenance.
Unless she did it because she knew journolists would be too stoooooooppppppiiiiiidddddd to realize that without provenance, the piece of papyrus is useless for making any sort of claim about "what happened back then."
Without provenance, there's no way to know whether it comes from Gnostic circles or orthodox circles. If from Gnostic circles, then it's ho-hum, nothing new.
Of course, she simply assumes that it is Gnostic (but didn't bother to mention the implication of that to the journolists). Since she and her ilk have for 40 years now simply lumped Gnostic and orthodox texts together in a giant heap as equally authoritative historical sources, to her the (s)crap is momentous.
But only because she's made that prior move (which has no historical basis, rather arises from the now discredited Bauer thesis).
So a "fourth century" scrap of papyrus that refers to Christ as married, refutes entire gospels that date to the 1st & 2nd century that do not?
My gardener's name is Jesus and he's married.
If it turns out He was married and even had kids, how would it be a negative on His ministry or Divinity? It would not shake my faith in the slightest.
Actually, early heretics were completely willing to accept Christ as completely divine, but they had a lot of trouble with the concept that He could be fully man as well. The divine was thought to be so above mankind that God would never condescend to be a man.
Variations of this gnostic heresy were the predominant alternative to orthodoxy until just before the first Council of Nicea. Then the Arian heresy with its claim that "there was a time when the Son was not" tilted away from the full divinity of Christ. That error was condemned in the Council, although it took quite some time for orthodoxy to completely triumph over Arianism.
"you don't get to have an endowed chair at Harvard Divinity School if you are stupid."
Actually, you do. Liberal professors are often incredibly stupid in very simple matters of how we know things, historical evidence etc. They read only the NYTimes. They have a more narrow worldview and more narrow exposure to diverse opinions and ideas than does your average auto mechanic.
I know. I've spent 40 years in Academia. I've seen more stupid than you'll ever want to imagine.
It really makes no difference whether Jesus was married or not.
He's still the Firstborn Son of God, and died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins................
Define your terms, and be honest, if possible!
When Dr. Soundingbrass says that he believes that this fragment is "authentic" he can only TRUTHFULLY mean that he thinks the papyrus is very old, and comes from the period in question. And Professor Tinklingcymbal's SAYING that this proves anything in regard to Christ's being married merely illustrates HER perverted mindset.
IMHO, this is just one more titillating (to some) relic, either from the many apochryphal writings, "epistles", etc., or from some individual from that era who had either looney tunes or perhaps sinister reasons for writing this kind of stuff.
And although the Coptics have a right to imbibe whatever flavor religeous elixer they can stir together; real thinking believers in Jesus Christ, God The Son, Third Person of The Holy Trinity and Savior of the world, are under no obligation to drink any of it!
It just means that he suffered a little more than we thought..........
Jesus said, "There is no marriage in Heaven."
That's why they call it 'Heaven'................
Mea culpa! Second Person of The Holy Trinity. Please forgive my outrageous mistake.
Mea culpa! Second Person of The Holy Trinity. Please forgive my outrageous mistake.
Okay we're going to have one papyrus fragment be the thing we have to believe over the thousands of other copies and larger fragments of other books?
Please. These artices are done by people who don't believe anything in the bible at all and only want to shake the faith of others as their goal.
The earliest known copies of The Gospels are not from the 1st and 2nd centuries. They also come from the same time frame............
Try Matt 19 and "eunuchs for the kingdom"
Marriage is not essential to full humanity. There's even a Jewish tradition of voluntary celibacy for prophets ("schools of the prophets" in the OT). That Jesus was not married is not of no significance. He was married to the Ecclesia, his Bride. Ephesians 5.
Without some people living voluntary celibacy marriage is not fully understood. Without some people being married, voluntary celibacy is not fully understood. The two are interrelated.
If the universal Christian claim that Jesus was unmarried were simply overturned, you'd have 2000 years of Christian belief proved to have been false. If the Church got all that wrong all these years, based on a scrap of papyrus whose owner won't even reveal where he acquired it, then what else did the Church get wrong all these years?
Your casual willingness to abandon 2000 years of belief is breathtaking.
No problem, that's not my belief anyway.............
It really makes no real difference whether he was or wasn't married............
Maybe I'm a layman, and just read what is written, but isn't the church supposed to be a like a bride, for Christ? Why wouldn't He then refer to the church as "my wife, the church"?
/simplest explanation is usually the one that is right
Well, the main point is that Jesus' mission here on earth was not to get married and sire a genetic line of descendants. This would be a detraction from the real reason He came here.
His mission was to be a sacrifice for all so that jew and gentile alike could inherit eternal life if they believe in Him, and be adopted into God's family.
God's need for human sex to accomplish things is nonexistant. He had the power to become flesh, He has the power to make all peoples part of His family without them having to be part of His personal genetic dynasty.
It would mean he was wrong all the time....
1) Had Jesus married, it would not have been a sin. So, a claim that he was married would not detract from his sinless nature. (Not that I believe he was married—I don't.)
2) The Bible repeatedly talks about the church (the body of believers) as being the bride of Christ. Remember, we're reading someone's translation of this scrap into English. Bride and wife mean the same thing. Had the translator chosen bride instead of wife "Jesus said: my bride" it wouldn't be controversial to most Christian's ears at all, as most would interpret it as a reference to the church.
3) There are thousands of "early christian" manuscripts floating around that are obvious fake/uninspired even to non-experts. There's no reason to think this scrap didn't come from a similar fake/uninspired manuscript unless it can be proven otherwise (in other words, finding a copy of the manuscript in its entirety so it can be analyzed).
Me too. My schedule is booked. I'll try to fit it in however. Maybe we should look at outsourcing our rioting on days we are busy?
There are probably some well qualified offshore companies that could handle our individual rioting needs at a reasonable price.
Ten bucks says the end result will be about Jesus referring to the church as his Bride - but some doofus is trying to gin up publicity by creating a controversy.
Ten bucks also says that IF jesus was married his wife was well past puberty.
King, the Hollis Professor of Divinity at Harvard Divinity School, announced the existence of the ancient text at the congress meeting, held every four years and hosted this year by the Vaticans Institutum Patristicum Augustinianum in Rome. The four words that appear on the fragment translate to Jesus said to them, my wife. The words, written in Coptic, a language of Egyptian Christians, are on a papyrus fragment of about one and a half inches by three inches.
I'll bet Mormons are ecstatic over the news!

Was Jesus Married?
Occam's Razor............
It's of no value for telling us anything about Jesus and the original disciples--it may shed light on what some divergent quasi-Christian group in Egypt thought 300 years later.
"...is the Church"?
"...is those who hear the Word and do it"?
See, at this point, we don't know.

This intelligent heating system uses motion sensors to direct warmth at occupants. Instead of heating an entire space, the solution targets heating where it's needed the most.
Goodbye central heating, hello local warming.
Large quantities of energy can be wasted trying to maintain consistent warmth across all areas of a building. Whether you have a lobby, atrium, or areas with only partial occupancy, it doesn't always make sense to heat every corner of these high volume, low density spaces.
To address this source of energy waste, MIT researchers at the Senseable City Laboratory have developed an intelligent heating system called Local Warming. Using motion sensing and autonomous control, the prototype installation provides people with direct and localized warmth.
The system functions like a spotlight that can aim heat to a micro zone. An infrared energy beam follows the movement of occupants so they can be comfortably warm in an otherwise cold environment. This precision ensures that the inefficiencies of ambient heating are avoided all together.
A working model can be experienced at the Venice Architecture Biennale and is directed at visitors walking up to an exterior entrance. This outdoor application provides the ability to manipulate unenclosed environments in an efficient manner and subsequently blurs the architectural boundary between interior and exterior. When thought of as a responsive environment, the system exhibits a smart, data-driven, and personalized form of climate control.

Best Moonlight Stroll: Sierra Club's Griffith Park Hike
Hiking the hills of Griffith Park alone after dark is, unfortunately, ill-advised. Happily, Sierra Club's Angeles Chapter has your back, offering group hikes of varying difficulty during the week and on weekends — and, once a month, a special moonlight hike. These treks are no secret: Between 150 and 250 trailblazers usually show up for each excursion during the warmer months, the more serious ones armed with a sturdy set of boots and poles. (Difficulty levels are numbered: 1 for beginners, 6 for — let's face it — those in better shape.) Led by experienced Sierra Club volunteers, the hikes are two hours long, exploring all 53 miles of the park's trails and changing each week to keep things interesting. Most hikes stop at a high point to give participants a chance to enjoy city views. From up high, even the 5 freeway takes on a mystic quality, the cars streaming around its curves in waves of tiny white lights. "This is a fantastic way for people to enjoy the park," says Councilman Tom LaBonge, who takes in a hike from time to time. "It's activities like this that make our city great." Damn straight, Tom.
Angeles Chapter headquarters, 3435 Wilshire Blvd., Ste. 320, L.A., (213) 387-4287 or www.angeles.sierraclub.org/griffith/location.asp.

10 Reasons Why a Cruise is the Perfect Family BabymoonMichelle Horton
If you're pregnant while taking care of older kids, the concept of a "babymoon" might seem silly to you.
Isn't that something you do before your first baby?
Oh no, my friend. Oh no. I'd argue that you deserve a babymoon more than anyone — and so do your kids. Before your newest baby inevitably shifts the family dynamics, why not get away and enjoy your three-person/four-person/five-person family as it is? One last hurrah before the next baby years!
We've already established that a cruise and a pregnant woman make lovely vacation-mates (the food! the spas! the lack of planning!), but it's also an incredibly convenient option for pregnant women with families to keep entertained.
Here are 10 reasons why you should consider taking a cruise for your family babymoon:
The Splash Academy 1 of 10Norwegian has brand new youth programs rolling out now through the end of summer, and their Splash Academy is specifically for kids 6 months to 12 years old (and they're broken up by age group). It's jam-packed with so many activities — like a Cirque de Jour circus school (juggling! tumbling!), arts & crafts workshops, Wii games, surround-sound cinema, etc. — they won't even notice that mom and dad have been lounging at the spa all morning.
Entourage 2 of 10And if you have much older kids to entertain — say the hard-to-please teens — Norwegian's Entourage program is for kids ages 13 to 17. They'll be distracted with sports, fashion, pool parties — whatever catches their attention that day. In all honesty, you might have a hard time pulling them out of The Teen Center, considering flat-screen TVs, air hockey, and dance music tends to trump family time. There's even a Late Night Fun Zone open until 1 a.m. every night so mom and dad can have some romantic alone time.
Family Activities 3 of 10And when you're ready to step away from the pool and create some family memories, there's plenty to do — whether you want water slides (Norwegian has a cool on-board Aqua Park) or family-friendly live entertainment.
Pre-Planned Excursions 4 of 10Forget about booking reservations or hunting for the coolest activities. The cruise offers tons of different shore excursions, many of which are family-friendly — like swimming with dolphins and whale watching.
…Or Not 5 of 10Or you can opt out of excursions if pre-planned activities aren't your thing. You're free to freestyle it.
Food For Even The Pickiest Eaters 6 of 10With kid-friendly menus all over the ship — and a range of eating options — there's no way your kids would ever go hungry.
No Long Trips Confined To a Seat Belt 7 of 10Is there anything worse than a really long plane ride or car ride with stir-crazy kids — on top of your pregnancy? You'll get from Point A to Point B while sliding down water slides, playing Wii, splashing in pools, napping in beds, etc. Heaven, I tell you!
A Short or Long Trip 8 of 10If you know that your vacation limit is only 3 or 4 days, then book a 3- or 4-day trip. If you want to be away for two weeks, that's an option too. Totally up to you and your family.
Family-Friendly Destinations 9 of 10The cruise isn't the only fun part of the trip — there are tons of different destinations to choose from, ranging from Alaska to Bermuda. See all of your destination options.
All the Relaxation, None of the Mom Guilt 10 of 10Complimentary childcare + a range of mommy-needed services = the best of both worlds. You can have your fill of family-making memories while also having date nights and alone time with just you and your baby-to-be. And without any of the vacation-planning hassle?! Sold.

Vt. towns delay vote on consolidating schoolsThe Associated Press | October 07,2013BROOKLINE - Five southern Vermont towns considering whether to consolidate their school boards are delaying a vote on the issue.
Vermont Public Radio reported that Brookline, Jamaica, Newfane, Townshend and Windham were supposed to vote Tuesday on articles that would create a unified education district board. But the vote will be held in June instead, because revisions made to an agreement drafted by a five-town study committee weren't approved by the state in time.
Emily Long, who chairs the Windham Central Supervisory Union committee, says a unified district would allow small schools that have struggled to maintain music, arts and athletic programs to share teachers and other resources.
The state has offered financial incentives for districts to merge but only one such district has been approved by voters.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A North Bennington man who had worked as a crossing guard for the Village School of...

Thorsten Heins Speak In Waterloo, Our Takeaway 10 commentsJul 10, 2013 1:50 PM | about stocks: BBRY
Listening to the conference call live from Waterloo Canada for the BlackBerry (NASDAQ:BBRY) became more insightful after speaking with an expert on linguistics and how speech varies from country to country. More on this later. First we want to address the current shorts outstanding in BBRY shares and the negative rebate borrow rate-NRBR- because today after the market close, NASDAQ will report short interest numbers for the end of June. We will know very soon how much of the recent selling of BBRY shares stems from shorts adding to their position. As of last week, the NRBR was 11.5% annual. We will have an update in our next article after the short report is published by Nasdaq.
While listening -we encourage you to listen-to BBRY CEO Thorsten Heins give his presentation, we heard a thumping noise when he had the ever so slight inclination in his voice. He is not an emotional speaker by any stretch of the imagination. However, the thumping seems to be his hand pounding against the podium from which he was speaking.
(click to enlarge)We are told by Europeans that the hand pounding or thumping is a sign of extreme conviction and therefore must conclude Thorsten meant what he said sincerely. We think its a good start, but he must move much more quickly with regards to transparency. He is too old school and is not embracing the world he himself describes as the connection of all things. From his remarks:
"...the software update management for automotive facilitates machine-to-machine communication directly between the automaker and the vehicle. It allows the automaker to easily provide software updates to the car and to the client using our infrastructure that is already globally deployed.
And we're using it today to update millions of BlackBerry out there. We can use this to update every mobile computing endpoints out there, be it a car, be it a smartphone, be it a telemetry element, be it something in healthcare, this is what the network can do. ..."
But with all do respect, these words are not enough to squelch the critics who accuse BBRY of hiding behind their numbers regarding their rollout. The quote by Winston Churchill, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself" is our message to Thorsten: Be upfront and realtime about sales. Announce them on Twitter or BBM. Make the shorts by a Z or Q10 to get the blow by blow on how sales are doing. Make transparency a marketing tool and not a distraction from what your goals are. We are one of the few SA authors who still believe in BlackBerry. Show the world you are not afraid of the truth.

Would be great if Heins would announce QNX revenues as well, though he certainly can make an estimate of what they might be a few years out. Generally, I think he is out of his element in running the company, as I am particularly concerned about his inability to know what is and push good marketing of a totally new product (the BB10) and his choice not to get focus groups involved in helping to develop new products and determine what apps are key for the BB10, but he is generally good at product development.
$NIHD hot
Yes - for example I bought 15000 shares of LEAP and sold 14000 of them a week ago. Sold the remaining 1K at 17.20 this morning. I could kill myself, except that the money I got selling the pre-leap LEAP shares, I used to buy more NIHD. So I hope NIHD redeems me at some point with a 20+ sale. Anyway, picking myself up and hurrying off. Good quote.

How do you spend your time?

You may be aware of press reports alleging that Internet companies have joined a secret U.S. government program called PRISM to give the National Security Agency direct access to our servers. As Google's CEO and Chief Legal Officer, we wanted you to have the facts.
First, we have not joined any program that would give the U.S. government—or any other government—direct access to our servers. Indeed, the U.S. government does not have direct access or a "back door" to the information stored in our data centers. We had not heard of a program called PRISM until yesterday.
Second, we provide user data to governments only in accordance with the law. Our legal team reviews each and every request, and frequently pushes back when requests are overly broad or don't follow the correct process. Press reports that suggest that Google is providing open-ended access to our users' data are false, period. Until this week's reports, we had never heard of the broad type of order that Verizon received—an order that appears to have required them to hand over millions of users' call records. We were very surprised to learn that such broad orders exist. Any suggestion that Google is disclosing information about our users' Internet activity on such a scale is completely false.
Finally, this episode confirms what we have long believed—there needs to be a more transparent approach. Google has worked hard, within the confines of the current laws, to be open about the data requests we receive. We post this information on our Transparency Report whenever possible. We were the first company to do this. And, of course, we understand that the U.S. and other governments need to take action to protect their citizens' safety—including sometimes by using surveillance. But the level of secrecy around the current legal procedures undermines the freedoms we all cherish.

High school students taking university entrance exams in the small Chinese city of Zhongxiang went on a rampage after teachers actually tried for the first time to seriously crack down on cheating.
The school brought in 54 teachers from other schools to administer the test and set up metal detectors to find electronic cheating devices.
They also deployed officials to patrol the area outside the school to catch people using transmitters to beam answers to test takers.
As soon as the test was over, a mob of students, parents and others started throwing rocks, with some chanting: "There is no fairness if you do not let us cheat." (The idea is that cheating is so widespread in China that one school not being allowed to cheat is unfair.) Teachers were trapped inside while police tried to protect the school.

A New York Times notable book
"A tour de force, a womderful, entertaining and informative book." —Abraham Verghese, New York Times Book Review
After fifteen years in print, Woman remains an essential guide to everything from organs to orgasms and hormones to hysterectomies. With her characteristic clarity, insight, and sheer exuberance of language, bestselling author Natalie Angier cuts through the still prevalent myths and misinformation surrounding the female body, that most enigmatic of evolutionary masterpieces. Woman is a witty and assured narrative tour de force with a reliable grasp of science.
Updated throughout and with a new introduction bringing readers up to date on the latest science in evolutionary psychology and hormone replacement therapy, this new edition of Woman reinvigorates Angier's joyful vision of womanhood.
In Woman, Angier shows how cultural biases have influenced evolutionary psychology and led to dubious conclusions about "female nature," such as the idea that women are innately monogamous while men are philanderers. But she doesnt just point fingers; with enlightened subversiveness, she offers a joyful, fresh vision of womanhood. Woman is an essential read for anyone interested in how biology affects who we are—as women, as men, and as human beings.

Dear Tom and Ray:
I purchased a new 1997 Mercury Cougar. After driving for two weeks, the hubcaps were covered with black brake dust. I went back to the dealer and the service manager said, "That's normal. All Fords have brake dust. Look in the owner's manual and it'll show you what to do."
I looked in the manual, and there's no mention of brake dust. So I wrote to the chief executive officer of Ford Motor Co. at the time, Alex Trotman, and related my story. I told him the removal of brake dust with a toothbrush every two weeks was not acceptable maintenance to me. He never replied. I checked with another Ford dealer, who recommended PAM or silicone spray. The PAM attracted flies, and the silicone left a black smudge. I tried Castrol Super Clean for brake dust, and it was no better than soap and water. Any suggestions? - Dick
TOM: Well, I can't understand why Alex Trotman never got back to you. I know he was trying to run a multinational corporation and all, but brake dust is important!
RAY: It's an absolute scourge, isn't it? It's related to the design of the wheels and how the brakes are ventilated. It's important to keep air moving over the brakes so they cool off. But if the air is drawn out through the wheels, it also draws out dust from the brake pads.
TOM: And if you leave that dust on the wheels - particularly alloy wheels - it can eventually react with the metal and cause pitting.
RAY: Some car companies are solving this themselves by redesigning their wheels. They obviously got tired of having their CEOs spending four days a week responding to letters about brake dust. So you might check with your Mercury dealer to see if the wheels have been changed since 1997 to correct this problem.
TOM: Other than that, your only choice is to clean them every week. If you keep up with it, the spray-on soaps - like Castrol's or the foam cleaner made by Kiwi - work pretty well. But if you let it sit for more than a week, you'll probably have to get on your hands and knees with the toothbrush.
RAY: That's what my wife does. Hey! I wonder if that's why I've been get that funny taste when I'm brushing my teeth?
Dear Tom and Ray:
In a recent column, you said you've had some success with a product called "Restore." Under what conditions do you recommend it, and where can I find it? - Bill
TOM: Under "desperate" conditions, Bill. Restore is one of those "ring-job-in-a-can" products. But it happens to be the only one we've ever had any occasional success with.
RAY: Sometimes a customer will come in with an old beater that's burning oil. He may need it to last another six months while he finishes graduate school - or till he can knock off his mother-in-law and inherit her Coupe DeVille. And if he's got nothing to lose (if the alternative is junking the car or rebuilding the engine), we'll often recommend a can of Restore.
TOM: And even if it doesn't work, no harm is done because he's going to rebuild the engine or junk it anyway.
RAY: So it's a last resort, in our opinion, and not recommended for your '98 Caravan, for instance.
TOM: The Restore folks say it's sold in most Wal-Mart and Kmart stores, as well as auto parts stores. And if you can't find it locally, you can call them at (954) 563-7001.
Dear Tom and Ray:
Is it possible to rotate the seats in my '96 Oldsmobile Aurora? I'm a fairly big guy, and I drive a lot. The car has more than 150,000 miles on it already. The passenger seat has only a few thousand miles of "seat time" on it - most of it by smaller people. Casual examination of the situation looks promising - seat controls are mounted on the doors, not the seats. The seats seem to be symmetrical. They both have the same functions: heat, lumbar, tilt, recline, etc. So can this be done? Will the bolts line up with the holes? Will it be safe? - Mark
TOM: You might be able to do it, Mark, but you're going to have to experiment. I've never done a full-frontal seat transplant on an Aurora (there are only few hospitals in the country that do this). On most cars, seats are left and right specific, but some DO happen to be interchangeable.
RAY: And since your seats have the same electronic features, are remotely controlled from the doors and have seat belts that are attached to the pillars - not the seats themselves - there's no reason not to try it.
TOM: It's a simple procedure. There are usually four or so bolts that hold each seat in place and an electrical harness that plugs in under the seat. So take 'em out some Saturday morning and try reinstalling one on the other side. If it works, finish the job.
RAY: If the bolt holes DON'T line up correctly, put the seats back in their original positions and forget about it. It'll take you an hour or less either way.
TOM: And in terms of safety, if the holes line up and you tighten the bolts properly, it should be fine. There are no safety features in the driver's seat of this car that are not present in the passenger seat.
RAY: If the holes don't line up and you're unable to do the transplant, there are two other options you can look into, Mark. One is to look for a newer, used Aurora driver's seat at a junkyard. The other is to go to an automotive upholstery shop and have them restuff and, if necessary, reupholster your driver's seat. That's cheaper than a new seat, and they may even be able to customize the Aurora's seat to YOUR seat.
Wait! Before you buy your next car, make sure you read Tom and Ray's guide "How to Buy a Great Used Car: Things Detroit and Tokyo Don't Want You to Know." Send $3 and a stamped (55 cents), self-addressed, No. 10 envelope to Used Car, PO Box 536475, Orlando FL 32853-6475.

There are only two changes you need to make in order to install SUS on your users' client machines. But don't try this at home if your PCs are not running XP or Windows 2000 Professional. Here are some installation pointers from Douglas R. Spindler, president of the San Francisco Networking Technologies User Group.

Step 1: Configure the client while the SUS server download is occurring.
Step 2: Remember that the client can only be run on Windows 2000 Professional or Server; Windows XP, Home or Professional; or Server 2003.
Step 3: The client software can be found here on Microsoft's Web site. It's a quick download at 1MB WUAU22.MSI. But note that, if the client is running Windows 2000 Pro, you will need to install Service Pack 2 first. SP3 includes the SUS client, so you can skip the install for those machines. XP requires the client unless you have SP1, which includes the client. Server 2003 machines all include the client.
Step 4: Since you are not using Active Directory, you will need to make a registry modification. Copy the following text into Notepad and replace <YOUR DNS NAME OR IP ADDRESS> with your SUS server's IP Address. This is on the third and fourth line; be sure to leave the quotes.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
"WUServer"="http://YOUR DNS NAME OR IP ADDRESS"
"WUStatusServer"="http://YOUR DNS NAME OR IP ADDRESS"
Step 5: Save this as a .reg file. We called ours "SUSregchanges.reg."
Step 6: Install the reg file modification by double clicking on the reg file icon. You will be warned that the reg file is being modified.
Step 7: Accept the modification.
Step 8: Reboot the client.
A word of warning: as new critical updates are downloaded by the SUS server, they will appear in the Approve Updates window on the SUS server. "New" unapproved updates appear at the top, above previously "approved" updates. Here's where you have to be careful; updates to previously "approved" updates appear below the section of "approved" updates and are unchecked, waiting for your approval. Below this section are the entries that appeared in previous approval sessions as "not approved." It would have been nice to have all of the items needing approval together rather than being broken apart by a section of "approved" in the middle. To avoid this trap, scan the list from top to bottom, looking for unchecked boxes.
That's it! Your test SUS server now is ready to supply your clients with the updates you just approved. The clients are configured to contact the SUS server at 7 a.m., download and then install the latest critical updates, and reboot the client (if needed).
