It's still cute, affordable and fun to drive. And now it's in the Guinness Book of World Records.
In its 11th year, the Mazda Miata MX-5 - the world's best-selling roadster with more than 560,000 sold around the globe, according to the famous book of oddities - also continues to improve.
BASE PRICE: $21,180 for base Miata; $23,930 for LS.
TYPE: Front-engine, rear-wheel drive, two-passenger roadster.
ENGINE: 1.8-liter, double overhead cam, four cylinder with variable valve timing.
MILEAGE: 23 mpg (city), 28 mpg (highway).
LENGTH: 155.7 inches.
WHEELBASE: 89.2 inches.
CURB WT.: 2,400 pounds.
BUILT AT: Japan.
OPTIONS: Six-speed manual transmission $650; antilock braking system $550; LS suspension package (includes sport suspension with Bilstein shock absorbers, limited slip axle and 16-inch, high-performance tires) $395.
For 2001, this two-seater gets its largest horsepower boost - up 15 from 140 horsepower to 155.
It's not as if the little, 2,300-plus-pound Miata was sluggish to begin with. I've always enjoyed the way this small car readily scoots and scampers.
But the Miata is facing more competition in the small roadster segment. This year, Toyota introduced its 138-horsepower MR2 Spyder, while Honda's S2000, with a 240-horsepower, 2-liter, four-cylinder, is entering its second model year.
The Miata's new power is plain on all-out highway runs in mountainous terrain as well as on suburban drives.
Mazda officials note that while the Miata's four-cylinder engine remains at 1.8 liters, it now has a double overhead cam cylinder head with variable valve timing on the intake cam. That provides more power and torque across a wider range of revolutions. Peak torque in the new Miata is 125 foot-pounds at 5,500 rpm, compared to 119 foot-pounds last year.
Yet, fuel economy remains noteworthy. The Miata is rated at 23 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway with either manual transmission.
Engine noise is considerable, as you'd expect in this convertible. Mazda said it worked to tune the engine sounds this year to better match the expectations of Miata drivers.
There's also road noise from the tires, especially the 16-inchers that were on the test Miata LS with suspension package. Last year, the biggest tires offered by Mazda were 15 inches.
Prices are up for 2001. The base Miata starts at $21,660, including manufacturer's suggested retail price and destination charge. This compares with $20,995 for a 2000 model.
The Toyota MR2 Spyder starts at $24,040. The 2001 Honda S2000 starts at $32,740. Both are for manufacturer's suggested prices plus destination charge.
For the first time, a six-speed, manual transmission is available, although only on the top Miata, the LS, and as a $650 option. Previous six-speeds were offered only on limited-edition Miatas.
The test car's six-speed quickly earned a spot in my book as one of the most satisfying shifters around. Not only does this shifter have a short throw, there's an easily understandable progression in the gears that fits and feels just right as a driver gains speed.
The Miata's handling is upgraded this year, too.
Brake discs are larger for better braking.
This already stiff, low-riding sports car is made stiffer with new reinforcements under the cockpit and stronger side sills.
Add the optional LS suspension package that includes a sport-tuned suspension with Bilstein shock absorbers, limited slip differential, a strut tower brace and those 16-inch tires, and you can start to appreciate the truly sporty feel - dare I say zoom zoom? - the test car conveyed.
I didn't hesitate to dodge around debris in my lane. The rear-wheel drive Miata whipped around it and resumed its place in the lane in a flash and with composure.
In a slalom, back-to-back test drives of last year's Miata and this year's LS model with suspension package showed how much tauter and confidence-inspiring the 2001 model is. The cars darts where you point it, as always, but remains more settled now while doing so.
Inside, all 2001 Miatas get new gauges with white backgrounds and decorative chrome surround rings.
Sportier high-back seats provide more lumbar and shoulder support, which I appreciate. I also like the new, covered cupholders.
The dead pedal for the driver's left foot is improved, and inside door handles are chrome now for a richer look.
But Mazda does not offer side airbags.
A key-operated airbag turnoff switch for the passenger-side front airbag remains. The switch is easily reachable on the dashboard, at the base of the center console.
Outside are subtle changes, but casual observers are unlikely to take much notice of the new grille work and taillights. The styling change most likely to draw attention is the larger, reflector headlamps.
Company spokesman Fred Aikins said Miata sales have averaged 20,000 over the last few years and are expected to stay in that range.
Half of buyers are men, and two-thirds are college-educated, he said.
Miata buyers are one of Mazda's most affluent buyer groups, with annual household income of $80,000 and more, he said.
Aikins pointed out the Miata attracts two distinct buyer groups. Younger, 25- to 35-year-olds buy the Miata as their primary vehicle. The 50- to 65-year-old empty nesters buy Miatas as a second, third or fourth vehicle for their households. Aikins also said the Miata engenders great loyalty among buyers.
"It has a fairly high level of repeat buyers," he said. "And we have families where they have multiple Miatas."
Consumer Reports ranked 1991-97 Miatas as having much better than average reliability and predicts the 2001 model will be the same.

Deville, Davenport earn All-State honors
By: LANCE REED
Sports Editor
The Louisiana Sports Writers' Association released the Class 2A All-State teams Tuesday. Both softball and baseball had individuals from Evangeline Parish. The area was fortunate enough to have two young ladies named to the softball team and three more received honorable mentions. In baseball, two members of the Pine Prairie Panthers received honorable mention.
Senior Alex Deville had a standout district season and she put on a show at the Class 2A State Tournament. Her performance in the quarter-finals against South Beauregard and in the semi-finals against Pope John Paul really set her apart from all of her competitors. She was honored by the sportswriters by being named a first team utility player. A shortstop, she completed the season with a .465 batting average. This was her fourth consecutive time making the Class 2A All-State team. She finished her season with three home runs and several doubles. She was among the team leaders in slugging percentage.
Sacred Heart sophomore Samantha Davenport was named to the All-State team as an infielder. She played shortstop for most of the year for the Lady Trojans. She posted a .371 batting average with two home runs and several stolen bases. She was among the team's leaders in every offensive category. Davenport posted good numbers despite battling an arm injury throughout the season.
Three young ladies received an honorable mention. Senior Mamou pitcher Sadie Fontenot had a great year in the circle. She also hit .372 on the year for the Lady Demons. She helped to get the Lady Demons to the second round of the playoffs. Mamou sophomore Kristie Soileau had a very good year at shortstop for the Lady Demons. She batted .441 and had one of the highest slugging percentages on the team. Mamou Head Coach Kim Manuel is expecting big things from Soileau in the upcoming seasons. Pine Prairie's senior catcher Kayla Johnson completed a brilliant high school career. She recently signed to play softball with Bossier Parish Community College. She had a brilliant career with three appearances on the Class 2A All-State team. Johnson ended her senior year with a trip to the Class 2A State Tournament. She hit several home runs during her senior year and had a couple during her junior year. She remained among the offensive leaders on her team.
Two members of the Pine Prairie Panthers were the recipients of an Honorable Mention. Bryant Firmin and Jonathan Fontenot each had great seasons for the Panthers. Fontenot ended the year with a .463 batting average, 16 RBIs and three home runs. He also led the team in doubles with 10. Firmin had a team-high batting average of .558 with nine doubles and four home runs. He scored 20 runs for the Panthers and drove in 18 runs.
It was a really good year for all of the baseball and softball teams. Congratulations go out to all of the athletes who were recognized by the LSWA.

Update: US-CERT Records Internet Explorer Security Advisory
An unpatched security hole in Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE) browser has triggered an advisory that is now recorded with the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT).
Microsoft's security advisory was recorded with US-CERT as VU#493881 on December 11. Vulnerability was found in IE 7, but IE 5.01 SP4, IE 6 and IE 8 Beta2 are also potentially affected. The Vulnerability Note includes a number of possible workarounds.
The actual Security Advisory 961051 from Microsoft also includes the so-called Disable XML Island and Disable Row Position functionality workarounds. The problem came about through an error in the browser's XML parser that can cause IE to exit unexpectedly in a state that is exploitable from a specially prepared website. IE users affected by the bug will need to wait until the next monthly security update from Microsoft.
Update: Microsoft has since released a Security Bulletin Summary so that users don't need to wait until the next monthly update In January. The bulletin with the out-of-band patch covers two security issues, including the XML parser bug described in this article. Microsoft, in their usual fashion, accompanied the to-do with webcasts and advance notification.

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller
TUCSON, Ariz. -- A year ago, when Arizona coach Mike Stoops met with reporters before spring practices, just about every question hinted at a simple, uncomfortable subtext.
Win or else.
His seat was hotter than Tucson asphalt in July.
While the fortunes of a college football coach can change with a single bounce of the oblong spheroid, Stoops was greeted with back slaps (which were absent any sharpened hardware) when he sauntered onto the Wildcats' practice field Wednesday afternoon and opened 2009 spring practices.
The sense is that Arizona, coming off its first bowl victory since 1998, is on the uptick.
And that means Stoops, after some fits and starts as a first-time head coach, enters his sixth year with newfound confidence and security.
And, notably, a contract extension.
"I don't think there is any self-doubt about what we can do," he said. "We got through that hurdle, which was the most important part. It becomes, 'Can we do this?' And to be able to do it under the pressure we were under, I think, was very gratifying for them. Now we can almost play free."
It was hard to tell if Stoops was talking about himself or his program.
Fact is, it doesn't matter. For the most part, they are one and the same. The Wildcats' players, all collected by Stoops, labored last year knowing their measure was being taken simultaneously with their coach's.
Either they all were good enough. Or they were not.
"I know the pressure here to succeed was pretty apparent," senior defensive tackle Earl Mitchell said.
With 15 starters back from an 8-5 team, the word around the program is that reaching a bowl game is no longer the singular goal.
A national ranking? Why not?
And what about competing for a Rose Bowl berth?
That may elicit grins in some quarters, but Stoops didn't need to be prodded to observe that was a major absence on the program's résumé.
"We don't want to be a seven- or eight-win team," he said.
From the outside, the Wildcats seem to have huge questions. Sure, a lot of guys are back, but a lot of production also walked out the door: record-setting pass-catch combination Willie Tuitama and Mike Thomas are gone, as is leading tackler Ronnie Palmer, not to mention kicker Jason Bondzio, whose 97 points in 2008 ranked second in the Pac-10.
But the general feeling, as the breakthrough of 2008 is put to bed and the program starts to consider the future, is that expectations in 2009 should be higher.
"We have as much talent as we've ever had coming back," Stoops said.
And Stoops believes he's a better coach than he was during his first few seasons, when broadcast production crews seemed to assign a cameraman the singular duty of capturing Stoops' sideline histrionics.
"I think we feel freer as a program," Stoops said. "I think I feel better, more relaxed. Sure. That experience has hopefully made me a better coach [so I can] handle our team better. There are a lot of things I wish I could have done better, but that's just part of the process and evolving as a head football coach."
Has Arizona turned a corner and is it now headed into the top half of the Pac-10?
We'll see.
"We hope these next five years aren't as hard as the first five years," Stoops said.

- PCI Express to Parallel / Serial Port
- Parallel: 1.5 Mbps
- RS-232: 460.8 Kbps Data Transfer Rate
- $51.99 –
- Free Shipping (restrictions apply)
This review is from: StarTech 2S1P Native PCI Express Parallel Serial Combo Card with 16550 UART Model PEX2S5531P
Nice card with two serial ports and a parallel port - great for modems, legacy hardware, and hobbyist projects.
Can supply 0, 5, or 12V on pin 9 of the serial ports (each can be set separately.
One serial port and the parallel port are on ribbon cables and can go into a cutout or a low-profile case.
Bad drivers - regularly caused bluescreens on Windows 8 64-bit.
Other Thoughts:
Installed in a Dell XPS 8500. As soon as I installed the drivers, it would bluescreen with PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (StnSport.sys) with the 2.0.1 and 2.0.2 drivers (then gets into a reboot-bluescreen loop), and would drop off after a short while with the 1.0 drivers on the CD. Startech said it may be incompatible with my chipset and recommended switching to the PEX1S1P952 instead.

Therapeutic options of secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures include medical therapy and surgery. Along with therapy, management should include counseling of the patient regarding the condition and providing knowledge of standard seizure precautions.
Medical therapy.Medical therapy with a single AED is the initial primary approach to management of secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures. The use of a single AED reduces the risks of idiosyncratic and dose-related toxic reactions, the cost of medications, and chances of drug interactions, and it increases the compliance of therapy. The initial drug selection is based on consideration of syndrome and seizure type, potential side effects, cost, comorbidities, and drug interactions. According to the American Academy of Neurology guidelines, gabapentin, lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, and topiramate are among the newer agents that can be used in initial monotherapy (French et al 2004). The guidelines published by ILAE in 2006 provide evidence for long-term efficacy or effectiveness of initial monotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed or untreated epilepsy (Glauser 2006). Carbamazepine has generally been considered a first drug of choice in the treatment of SGTCS (Ramsay and DeToledo 1997). A large, unblinded, randomized control trial (SANAD) compared carbamazepine with newer AEDs, including gabapentin, lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, and topiramate (Marson et al 2007). The trial found lamotrigine to be significantly better for time-to-treatment failure for any reason (inadequate seizure control or unacceptable side effects). Further analysis showed lamotrigine to be better mainly because of its better tolerability than carbamazepine. Carbamazepine was still slightly better than lamotrigine for the secondary efficacy outcome of time to first seizure. Rational polytherapy, combining AEDs for better efficacy, is a common practice in refractory epilepsy; however, there is a lack of robust guideline and evidence of clinicians to follow (Brodie and Sills 2011).
Achieving seizure control is inversely correlated with the number of failed drug regimens (Brodie et al 2012). ILAE proposed a definition for drug resistant epilepsy as failure of adequate trials of 2 tolerated, appropriately chosen and used AEDs (whether as monotherapies or in combination) to achieve sustained seizure freedom (Kwan et al 2010). Wrong diagnosis, non-compliance, and inadequate or inappropriate treatment are common reasons for pseudoresistance that need attention in cases of drug resistant epilepsy (Kwan et al 2011). Early identification of patients with drug resistant epilepsy is important in order to consider other modalities to achieve seizure control including vagal nerve stimulation, surgical intervention, and deep-brain stimulation.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS).Vagus nerve stimulation is used as an adjunctive therapy to intractable seizures. A meta-analysis demonstrated up to 50% reduction in seizure frequency; however, seizure freedom is rarely achieved (Englot et al 2011). Vagus nerve stimulation involves repeated stimulation of the left vagus nerve through implanted electrodes. Despite studies in animals and human, which show changes in brain electrophysiology, metabolism, and neurochemistry, the mode of action remains uncertain. Stimulation is delivered via a programmable generator, allowing variation in current, pulse, frequency, and duty-cycle. Adverse surgical outcomes are acceptably low in experienced hands. Stimulation-induced effects, such as hoarseness, cough, and dysphagia, are intensity dependent, diminish over time, and are usually not treatment-limiting.
Intracranial stimulation.Direct brain stimulation has received renewed attention in the treatment of epilepsy. A randomized blinded controlled trial with a device that provides responsive, closed-loop focal cortical stimulation has been shown effective as adjunctive therapy in adults with refractory epilepsy with no more than 2 epileptogenic foci, with median 44% reduction in seizures at 1 year and 53% at 2 years (Bergey et al 2015). Suggested mechanisms involved in effectiveness of direct stimulation include changes in cellular inhibition or excitation, changes in synaptic plasticity, neurogenesis or cortical reorganization.
A study of 110 patients who underwent bilateral anterior thalamic stimulation experienced a median reduction of 41% at 1 year and 69% reduction at 5 years in seizure frequency (Salanova et al 2015).
Surgical therapy.Surgery should be considered as a treatment option in patients with drug resistant epilepsy. Common disorders that can be successfully addressed with surgery include low-grade tumors, vascular lesions, cortical dysplasia, and mesial temporal or hippocampal sclerosis. The key to successful epilepsy surgery is multimodal localization of the seizure focus. Video-EEG recording with scalp, and if needed, intracranial recording, plays a vital role in localization. Several imaging technologies, including PET scans, ictal SPECT, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, fMRI, and DTI are being increasingly used to help in localization and placement of intracranial electrodes. Seizures related to benign tumors and mesial temporal sclerosis respond best to surgery. Surgery is less effective if there is no lesion in the MRI, or if the lesion is in extratemporal location. A randomized trial of early surgical therapy for drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy showed 2-year seizure freedom in 11 of 15 surgically-treated patients when compared to 0 of 23 in the medical arm (Engel et al 2012).
Other surgical techniques such as stereotactic radiosurgery or laser ablation have been used to target specific epileptogenic foci (Nowell et al 2014).
Other therapies. Stem cell and gene therapies are making progress and may play a role in treatment of intractable epilepsy in the future. Several neuronal and glial precursors can now be synthesized in vitro, and research is ongoing in molding differentiation, survival, and integration of these precursors (Naegele et al 2010).

I'm not entirely certain what you're trying to say. Are you saying you wouldn't shoot at a fleeing rapist?
Please note that I'm not arbitrarily defending Texas. I've lived here for all of 4 1/2 years and hardly in love with the place.
But I would have to agree with the jury that the entire blame lies with the wife in this case, based on what was reported.
May 3, 2008, 11:44 AM
If I remember correctly, a similar case came up a while ago but he caught them in the bed and she screamed rape. Husband shot the guy in the head, and wife was arrested for murder once details emerged. Don't remember where it was though.
I say good shoot, given the available info at the time, and would hope jurors would see it that way as well, which seems to be the case. As for the wives in these cases... :fire: For putting the husbands in that situation to begin with, and then they have to live with shooting a (fairly) innocent person. The wives deserve exactly what they get.
May 3, 2008, 11:44 AM
I think he's saying it a good deal the lying wife got blamed and convicted for her lover's death.
And, yes, I'd shoot a fleeing rapist and know for certain he'd never repeat the offense.

I watched a A&E American Justice thing a few years ago. It covered 5 murders. 4 of them, were DIRECT or INDIRECT results of "cheating".
May 3, 2008, 12:40 PM
The husband probably had a good idea there were issues in the relationship. The fact that he'd shoot someone in a car driving away makes me think?
1. did he have the gun on him
2. where did he get the gun
3. what did his spouse do
4. where did she go when he caught her
5.where was she when the spouse first saw her
The wife was probably a liar and the spouse knew as much and this wasn't the first case of infidelity
I think the article doesn't give enough details so I will with hold judgement for now. Texas is a good state but it seems that sometimes the residents think it is the greatest state ever which is certainly debatable.

In less than two weeks the citizens of Aiken County will have the opportunity to change our form of government from council/administrator to council/manager. The main distinction between the two is that the council/manager form ensures the treasurer and auditor will be qualified professionals appointed by the County Council rather than popularly elected citizens who may or may not be qualified. Also Clay Killians title will go from administrator to manager with the treasurer and auditor reporting to him.
In order to best understand why this important structural reform is necessary it might be helpful to know a little about how we arrived at our current state of affairs. Before the implementation of home rule in the mid-1970s, electing these offices probably made sense. At one point in time, the resident state senator in each county appointed most local officeholders.
Obviously this concentrated too much power in the hands of one individual which could potentially lead to substantial abuses of power. Therefore, the state legislature decreed that the auditor and treasurer (and a host of other offices such as registrar, coroner, etc.) should be separately elected to create a division of duties between tax bill preparation, tax collections, determining how much in taxes should be paid and how your monies should be invested.
In the mid-1970s when home rule was established, however, the power vested in the resident state senator was transferred and diffused among the nine separately elected Council members making the separate election of a host of offices essentially obsolete.
With this history in mind, my reasoning in support of the council/manager form of government is as follows:
Sound management practices dictate accountability and authority must go hand-in-hand if an organization is to achieve its goals and objectives. Most citizens and state law dictate that the county council is ultimately responsible for properly managing county finances. Unfortunately under our current form of government, the County Council does not have the authority over the treasurer and the auditor to make needed changes in policies and procedures that would make us more efficient.
Every year as required by state law an independent accounting firm completes an audit of the countys internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. While Aiken County has always received a clean financial opinion (which is good), in every one of the last 10 audits serious operational deficiencies have been cited in departments outside Councils jurisdiction.
For years Council has begged, pleaded, and cajoled to get these issues addressed, but most remain with us still.
Furthermore, the treasurers and auditors functions are very technical in nature. I submit that these positions should be filled by the best qualified individuals, not the most popular. Simply put, the public at large is not in the best position to determine whether an individual will make a good treasurer or auditor no more than for the director of public works, chief engineer, or the emergency services coordinator.
You might be interested to know the job description for treasurer adopted by Council a dozen years ago runs for 10 pages and shows the minimum qualifications to include a bachelors degree in financial management or business accounting in a related field; supplemented by six to nine years of experience in government finance, accounting, or banking; or an equivalent combination of education, training, and experience providing the required knowledge, skills and abilities. Clearly, the county is looking for a professional accountant.
But what does state law require in an elected treasurer? The candidate must have a high school education and reside in the county. No business in the private sector taking in hundreds of millions of dollars a year would set the bar so low.
Now lets look at the auditor. If you ask 100 citizens what the Auditor does, 99 will say that the auditor audits. But in truth the auditor audits nothing. Instead, the auditor prepares your property tax bill. Similar to the treasurer, the job description outlines individuals with the appropriate training, qualifications and experience.
And, unsurprisingly, state law merely mandates an individual who is more or less still breathing.
So heres the choice facing the citizens of Aiken County: Do we want to hire treasurers and auditors with the requisite skills and experience to professionally handle your money and your tax bills? Or do we want to fill these critical positions with the most popular and electable candidates?
Furthermore, do we want county finances in the hands of elected officials whose job descriptions arent even understood by the citizens of the county? Or do we want county finances in the hands of the County Council, which is already accountable?
We can do better in Aiken County. Therefore, I urge the citizens of Aiken County to vote Yes to this important question the upcoming general election.
Scott Singer represents District 2 on the Aiken County Council.

We may not see Allen this season, but he will be there fighting to get on the field and providing depth at the center position. While many overlook the importance of the center position, Mark Dantonio has always looked to have a solid point man.
Mark Dantonio Says: "Jack Allen is an outstanding football player who shows great effort. We saw him play in 2010. He has a great motor and is an extremely explosive player with great lateral movement and power. He is one of the top wrestlers in the nation, and certainly the top wrestler in the state of Illinois. He is a very exciting player to watch. We will look to build an offensive line around him in the future. He is one of the most outstanding centers in the country."
Spartan Digest Says: While you can find offensive linemen ranked pretty high in scouting rankings, centers at time do not get as much love as a tackle. However, as the point of the offensive attack, a solid, smart and physical center can mean the difference in the overall performance in both the running and passing game. Centers touch the ball on every offensive possession and have to do more than make a clean snap. Allen has all the physical skills to play at a high level and should provide depth at the position in the coming years.

Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler was born February 8, 1831. She practiced medicine out of her home at 20 Garden Street, not Joy St.(Check the city of Boston directories of 1870 and 1872.) Her husband Arthur Crumpler was not a doctor, he was a blacksmith and then a porter, working at 122 Tremont St. The couple had a daughter, Lizzie Sinclair Crumpler, born in December 1870.
Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831-1895), Physician
• First African American woman to earn a medical degree at a time when advanced education for women was rare.
• Wrote Book of Medical Discourses about medical care for women and children.
Rebecca was born free (not into slavery) in Delaware in about 1833 to Absolum and Matilda Davis. She was raised by an aunt in Pennsylvania who had a profound effect on Rebecca. The aunt was the person in the community to whom everyone came for medical assistance, and as a result of watching her aunt, Rebecca wrote that when she began work she knew it had to be in a field where she could "relieve the sufferings of others."
Rebecca moved to Charlestown, Massachusetts where she became a nurse (1852-1860); there were no schools of nursing at that time, so she learned on the job. She impressed the doctors with whom she worked, and they submitted letters recommending that she be admitted to the New England Female Medical College. Her acceptance at the college was highly unusual as there were few medical schools and most did not admit African Americans.
She started classes in 1860 but her studies were interrupted by the Civil War so she did not graduate until 1864. When she did, she became the first African American woman in the United States to earn a medical degree, and the only African American woman to ever graduate from the New England Female Medical College.
Rebecca began a medical practice in Boston, but when the war ended in 1865, she moved to Richmond, Virginia to help the freed slaves who otherwise would have had no access to medical care. She noted that it would be "a proper field for real missionary work," and it was; racism was widespread.
In 1869, she and her husband (she married Arthur Crumpler–I inadvertently noted that he was a doctor as some of the research shows; he was not, see correction below) returned to Boston and established a practice in Boston at 20 Garden Street. Rebecca specialized in caring for women and children. By 1880 the Crumplers had moved to Hyde Park, Massachusetts, and she began work on her book which was based on journals she kept during her years of active practice. In 1883 Book of Medical Discourses was published; the book was written for women to provide them with information to understand how to care for the health of their families.
Dr. Rebecca Davis Lee Crumpler died in 1895 in Fairview, Massachusetts.
No photos or other images of Dr. Crumpler survive from her lifetime. The little we know about her comes from the introduction to her book. Though her story was not known for many years, today she is recognized for her groundbreaking achievements. In 1989 two women physicians founded the Rebecca Lee Society, an organization which supports and promotes black women physicians. Today there is an Association of Black Women Physicians, and a scholarship is still given in the name of Rebecca Lee.
I have recently added the story of her husband, Arthur Crumpler. This story was brought to my attention by H. Lee Price, a mathematician who became interested in the Crumplers. Thank you, Lee!
Correction: In 2012 I heard from Anthony W. Neal who has done extensive research on Rebecca Crumpler, and he kindly wrote to inform me of what he has learned. In the article above, I have now corrected the date of birth and her Boston address, but his correction on Arthur Crumpler can be expanded upon. Neal checked city directories, census lists, and then hit pay dirt with an article about an Arthur Crumpler that appeared in the Boston Globe on April 3, 1898. Anthony Neal reveals the results of his research on Arthur Crumpler in an article in the Bay State Banner, and his article gives a more complete understanding of Rebecca Crumpler as well as the life of African Americans in the northeast in the late 1900s. I recommend that you read it.

This Was A Really Big Help Thank You So Much. bShe Is Now My New Idol <3
Rebecca's husband was a jeweler, not a doctor.
Is there any evidence that Dr. Crumpler used homeopathy or advocated it in her book?
In his article in the Boston Globe: "Boston's Oldest Pupil: He's 74, and He Goes to the Evening School," The Boston Sunday Globe, April 3, 1898, p. 25, Arthur Crumpler said he was a blacksmith before he moved to Boston. The City of Boston Directory of 1870 lists him as a porter working at 122 Tremont Street. On his daughter Lizzie Sinclair's birth register, Arthur Crumpler's occupation, oddly enough, is listed as jeweler. See Massachusetts, Town and Vital Records, 1620-1988 [database on-line] (accessed December 27, 2012).
There is a citation from Ancestry.com. U.S., High School Student Lists, 1821-1923 [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA, that lists Rebecca Crumpler's husband Arthur as a physician.
After reading Tony Neal's article that states all his research, I am inclined to feel that the mix-up was because the "Dr." of the family was actually the wife. Some people assumed Dr. referred to the husband. I stand by Tony Neal's research. Thank you for citing the additional source though!
This Article gave me a lot of insight in Rebecca Lee Crumplers life. Although I am a little confused on whether if Rebecca's husband was a physician or a jeweler
Anthony Neal has done the most extensive research on the couple, and I believe what he has discovered is as accurate as we can get:
Arthur was a blacksmith before they moved to Boston. He became a porter when they first settled in, and then he must have taken up the jewelry trade later. Here's Neal's response:
In his article in the Boston Globe: "Boston's Oldest Pupil: He's 74, and He Goes to the Evening School," The Boston Sunday Globe, April 3, 1898, p. 25, Arthur Crumpler said he was a blacksmith before he moved to Boston. The City of Boston Directory of 1870 lists him as a porter working at 122 Tremont Street.

How shameful that the generations lose their quality of what is historically pertinent while preparing in school for their futures! This should be known by everyone in the United States.
There is a Fairview, Mass. Someone said there wasn't.
Were there not photograph's taken of students at the medical college?
Because photography was in its infancy, the only early pictures of the school I have seen are sketches of the buildings. There is a photo floating on the Internet that may be Rebecca Lee Crumpler, but right now I have no verification so I have not posted it. Thank you for posting!

i love this cite even though i have only been on it once it show great facts that i use in everyday life.
Thank you! I write about the things that make me curious, so I'm delighted you are enjoying it.
I believe Rebecca Lee Crumpler died in Hyde Park and is buried in the Fairview Cemetery near there. I think her last name at birth was "Davis"; her first husband was "Lee" (who reportedly died while she was still in medical school)and her second husband was "Crumpler". I would love to see a copy of the reference given by Mr. Neal as to the location of her practice being at 20 Garden Street in the Beacon Hill area of Boston and wonder about the more oft-reported location of Joy Street (also in Beacon Hill). Could both have been correct at different points in time, I wonder?
The New England Female Medical College supported the homeopathic approach to medicine. After the merger with Boston University, some form of homeopathy was practiced in addition to more "conventional" medical treatments and the homeopathic approach was not fully abandoned, apparently, until after World War I (from what I have read).
Thank you so much for your information. In the last week, I have had one person contact me with some additional information about Arthur as well as Rebecca. I am in the process of documenting Arthur's story, and over the next month I'm going to re-examine all that I have on Rebecca. I believe Tony Neal checked City Directories, but I will try to trace his path and verify the information he provided.
I did not know that the New England Female Medical College was homeopathic but that means I need to re-answer one of the people who posted earlier.
I truly appreciate your interest and added material. I will email you when we have puzzled through this profile again and have verified all that we have thus far.
It's wonderful that Rebecca and Arthur Crumpler generate so much interest. I tip my hat to the people they were, and I will try to them full justice.

Höchst empfehlenswert
Mein Mann und ich haben am 29. Januar 2007 drei N�chte in diesem Hotel verbracht, die Angestellten waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es war nicht weiter problematisch, dass man nicht direkt im Zentrum war, denn man konnte den D Line Bus nehmen und rein fahren. Die Gegend war nichts Besonderes, aber der Preis f�r die �bernachtung und das ausgezeichnete Fr�hst�ck haben dies wieder ausgeglichen.
Man erh�lt beim Einchecken einen kostenlosen Verkehrspass, der f�r alle Verkehrsmittel g�ltig ist, einschlie�lich dem Wassertaxi und dem Zug zur�ck zum Flughafen.
Das Hotel liegt in einem exklusiven Einkaufszentrum, wo es einige wundersch�ne Gesch�fte gibt; Sie sollten auch die B�ckerei und das Kaffee im Erdgeschoss, sowie das Martel Teezimmer auf der ersten Etage ausprobieren. Abgesehen davon gibt es noch einen sehr gro�en Supermarkt.
Die Zimmer sind modern, es gibt Tee-/Kaffee- und Kakaozubereitungsm�glichkeiten und ein sch�nes Badezimmer. Ich w�rde auf jedem Fall wieder hier �bernachten.
Highly Recommended
My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights 29th January 2007
the hotel was very friendly and staff helpful It was no problem being 10 mins out of the town centre use the D line bus the area had no beauty but for the price of this hotel and the excellent buffet breakfast it more than makes up for it
The hotel will give you a free travel pass on check in and this covers all transport about town the water taxis and even free back to the airport by train
The hotel is set inside a very up market shopping centre with some lovely shops try the bakery/coffee lounge on the ground floor and the Martel tea rooms on the first floor it also has a very large supermarket
The bedrooms are modern with tea/coffee/hot chocolate nice bathrooms
I would definitely stay here again
Loved the place
Hotel has a good business location and has an excellent price /quality level. Broadband was available and rooms are very functionnal and modern equipped. Hotel has a nice ambiance and personnel is very friendly. Hotel to be recommended.
Good hotel NOT for business!
We (family of 5) stayed here for two nights recently. While it's a fair-rate clean hotel, don't expect any access to the internet or other business-loke facilities. I changed our rooms (two) literally three times, each time with a promise that the new room would have internet access (only 6 of all the rooms in hotel have internet access, believe it or not!) and yet, there was no access! Of course, they deducted the "internet " surcharge off the rate at the time of check-out. Nevertheless, I missed an important business I had to attend as a result of this. On the second night, I came down to the lobby at 2:00 am (business hour in North America) only to find that two people had already started on the only two internet stations available in there! They both seemed to be busy chatting on their respective sites with no prospect of seeing them off any soon! Ticked off and sleepy, I returned to my room after a useless protest to the front desk gentleman! Very frustrating, considering the fact that I had clearly emphacised to them that I'd be in need of an internet connection at that hour (I even had my own laptop, to no avail!).
Other than this, the hotel is acceptable. The rooms are smallish but clean, the beds are comfortable. Don't expect any views from the windows: only rail road tracks. Also, the hotel is about a 5-10-min drive to downtown Geneva. They have an indoor, extremely clean and well-lit parking for 15 Euros per 24h.
Overall: NOT for business, but for leisure and preferably if you have a car.
Oh! One last thing: avoid the Italian restaurant next to the hotel. We sat in there for more than 20 minutes witing for a server; NONE came! There were only a handful of customers in there and I really couldn't make out why they were so indiferrent to us. My children were so hungr; we left both hungry and angry!
It has been a while since you stayed in our hotel and I've been waiting for long time in order to be able to give you a reply.
Off course what happened is unfortunately as even more we have had several other plug in possibilities in the hotel besides the ones at the reception. Why this wasn't told to you we will never know.
However we have since a few weeks, (finally I can say) WIFI in the hotel through optical fibre. Problems like you have lived belong to the past now. I hope that this might be a reason for you to come back to our hotel.
Excellent place to stay!!!
I booked this hotel via the internet. The price was very reasonable for Geneva (especially during the local festival, which takes place in August) so, after reading the reviews on this site, I decided to go ahead. Well, I must say that I totally agree with the good stuff that's been said about this place!
There were 3 of us in the room which was still fairly spacious, nice, spotless, and equipped with sat tv as well as tea/coffee making facilities. The staff at reception were all extremely helpful and kind, and the buffet breakfast caters for all tastes. In the morning, there are newspapers to read while sipping your cup of coffee, if you wish, although it is only local papers. Internet access is available in the lobby (sorry, can't remember the rates).
Something worth mentioning (for I know there are people who have a thing about windows) is that all windows are sealed and that ventilation is provided only by air conditioning (perfectly efficient, as far as we were concerned).
The only downside is that, for the month of August only, the hotel restaurant is closed in the evening so we had to go and look somewhere else (BTW, avoid the Italian next door, prices are daylight robbery!).
It is true that view and location are not spectacular but the bus really takes 10 minutes to the city center and it is always very punctual. You can check out the time-table at the hotel front-desk and get to Bel-Air (shopping area) in no time!
I will most definitely stay in this hotel again if I go back to Geneva!!!
Great hotel - shame about the location
Great hotel, rooms very comfortable and spotless, as was the whole hotel. Staff friendly and helpful. Location not so good, a fair way out of town, so its a taxi, bus or tram, we used the tram which is about 400 yards to the right of the hotel and cost 3 franks to get into city centre. It is next to the Geneva stadium, a concrete monstrosity, and backing onto a large railway marshalling yard which was the view from our window. No opening window in room which I found claustrophobic but room air conditioned. Hotel is very good value for Geneva, some of the city centre hotels would have cost for one night what we paid for 4! The old town is beautiful and we enjoyed the lovely botanical gardens.
Top Hotel
We found this Hotel to be first class in all departments:very helpful and friendly staff,spacious and spotless bedroom and bathroom. The breakfast offered both hot and cold food and the evening menu was reasonably priced. A shopping centre adjacent to the hotel is very clean and packed with good quality shops---check out the beautiful coffee shop on the ground floor. Geneva is a 20 min bus ride away with buses cheap and frequent---up to 5 per hour.. Lake Geneva and the many parks and gardens impressed us most but our highlight was a trip to Montreux---a lovely peaceful town with gorgeouis views of the French Alps and the Lake. Our day finished with a 4 course dinner and a bottle of Montreux white costing 70 euro for 2 dining on the verandah of the local tennis club. All in all we had a great 5 day break in Switzerland.
We stayed at the Encore for 5 nights in Feb this year, and after going through alot of Europe, found this hotel to be the best yet!
We arrived a good few hours before check in and the staff were more than willing to help us out... even letting us check in there and then. They were very helpful when it came to public transport (it's a fair bit out of the way but a bus trip will get you to the city centre in no time).
The room was quite inexpensive, and pretty big as well. The bathroom was gorgeous! Glass basins and everything! Very clean and quiet - the hotel itself is located just off of a shopping centre which was an absolute blessing! The breakfast in the morning was divine and there were a fair few restaurants around as well (I wouldn't recommend the italian one though, they didn't speak a word of English - and because of that, they all ignored us for the night!).
Geneva itself is a bit dull - if you end up going, there is a tourism centre in the middle of town - GO TO CHAMONIX!!! An experiance of a lifetime! It's about 90 Euro BUT it's a two hour drive to Mont Blanc which takes you to some breathtaking scenery!
All in all, a fantastic stay! Well worth the price! And I would recommend anyone to stay here!
Excellent mid-range hotel
This must be one of the best 'affordable' hotels in Geneva, where decent accomodation seems to be universally expensive. Spacious rooms with multi-lingual TV, friendly and helpful staff, and a good in-house restaurant all commend this one. A quiet yet well-appointed location helps too (right beside the football stadium, with shops/restaurants in the commercial centre adjacent).
The only possible drawback is the fact that the hotel is not central, but it only takes about 10 minutes to reach Gare Cornavin using the D line bus that departs from opposite the hotel.
Highly recommended.
Good business hotel
I have stayed in this hotel for two nights on a business trip in July. The hotel reasonably far away from the center, so you basically need a taxi to go see the lake or eat out in the evening.
Staff is friendly and there is internet access in the lobby. Breakfast is good too. Rooms are nicely decorated, beautiful bathroom! A negative point was the fact that there are no drinks in the room, you need to get them yourself at the bar downstairs.

This 3D Printed Wristband Can Turn Prosthetic Hands Into Mice
Computer mice, not cheese-munching vermin mice.
Computer mice, not cheese-munching vermin mice.
When all other options fail, 3D-printing comes to the rescue.
Prepare for nothing you've ever seen before.
From prosthetic legs that enable people to run faster to exoskeletons that can make the disabled walk again, OT World 2016 is showcasing some of the most futuristic inventions you've ever seen.
Scientists give missing fingers the finger.
This development represents a major breakthrough in the world of cybernetics.
There's good cause for randomly kicking wearers in the knee – it's all to do with prosthetics.
The old prosthetics were too short, and they prevented the dog from sitting normally. A new upgrade now overcomes both of these limitations.
New pioneering research is promising for people with prosthetic body parts.
A prosthetic hand is about more than just improving the wearer's physical capabilities. It's also about improving their self-confidence. So Open Bionics has teamed up with Disney to realise some very cool designs.
Today's news that Joel Gibbard won the Dyson Award for his Dextrus design is a great sign for the ever-growing field of bionics.
Nine-year-old Josh Cathcart was often bullied in school for having just one hand. But he's about to become the coolest kid in school, thanks to his new i-limb.
Explore London's Moorfields Eye Hospital, where a highly skilled team create around 1,400 detailed prosthetics.
Doctors painstakinly relocated a patient's nerve endings to create the groundbreaking prothesis.
You could have 24 of them grafted onto your stomach to conveyor-belt sandwich crumbs back up to your mouth.
A generation ago, getting a prosthetic limb fitted usually amounted to a having a heavy, nearly useless hunk of plastic and metal tacked onto your body. But bionic hands such as this one illustrate just how quickly that's all changing.

Public transportation is a service, not a money-maker, provided by the city of Greeley. In order for it to work, that means it needs to run as efficient as possible.
Greeley made a change to the bus routes that should make things run smoother and more efficient. But in doing so, it also cut out a route that inconveniences 1.5 percent of its ridership. The city eliminated the so-called Family FunPlex loop.
There's no doubt the new changes make life better for most of the city's bus riders, maybe even the 98.5 percent the city seems to think will benefit. The changes make it possible for heavily used routes to run every 20 minutes, 40 minutes and on the hour, for instance. And it should make things smoother in the future, when the city's new, $815,000 transfer center off North 11th Avenue is completed.
The city made the decision based on numbers provided by the buses equipped with Automatic Vehicle Location systems, meaning transit officials can track ridership and timing to find ways to improve their routes. That information, along with good, old-fashioned observations from bus drivers, helped the city reconfigure the routes.
This seems like a good way to change the routes. We are a little disappointed the city didn't seem to ask the public what they thought of the changes. Public input remains one of the most important ways to monitor how the government meets its roles, and transportation can be a lifeline to the people who really need it. These people will be inconvenienced, possibly having to walk a half-mile or more to a new stop, and the city may have been persuaded by a special case or two had they been given the chance to speak up.
But ultimately we understand how public transportation works. It's an important service provided by the city, and in order to make it work, routes that aren't used often need to be eliminated. This ensures public transportation can continue for the masses, even if a few people will have to walk a bit to use it.

Combi Boiler Reviews by Manufacturer
Greenstar 27CDi Reviews (Combi Condensing)
Worcester-Bosch Greenstar 27CDi
The Greenstar 27CDi is one of a range of highly energy efficient – over 90% efficient on average – condensing combination boilers available from Worcester-Bosch. A combination boiler system does not store hot water in a hot water storage cylinder but rather heats water directly from the cold mains supply. This means that there is no requirement for a cold water storage tank in your loft or any associated plumbing.
The Worcester-Bosch Greenstar 27CDi is, nevertheless, at least 10% more efficient than a conventional boiler of equivalent output and features a "keep hot" facility – which maintains a constant temperature in the primary heat cell – so that hot water is instantly available. Alternatively the Greenstar 27CDi can be operated in "eco" model; this heats water from cold as and when required so requires a little longer for water to reach the desired temperature.
The specification of the Worcester-Bosch Greenstar 27CDi includes the following features:
- 27kW DHW ("Domestic Hot Water") output
- SEDBUK "A" rated for energy efficiency at 90.3%
- Fully condensing in DHW and CH ("Central Heating") mode for additional fuel savings
- Choice of "keep hot" or "eco" heating modes
- Sophisticated boiler management and temperature control in DHW and CH modes
- Environmentally friendly with low emissions of CO2 and NOx
- Robust cast aluminium and silicon heat cell
- Multi-directional fluing system, combined ignition and control board, for easy and flexible installation options
- Available in natural gas and LPG ("Liquified Petroleum Gas") models

WASHINGTON (AP) - Don't throw away the lawnmower yet, but scientists found a way to stunt the growth of grass and other plants and keep them greener longer by tinkering with a single gene. It could be a dream come true for suburbanites weary of the weekly mowing ritual.
The gene regulates production of a steroid hormone that causes plants to grow, much the same way similar steroids work in animals. Scientists succeeded in manipulating the gene to create dwarf versions of standard plant species, according to research published today in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
A tobacco plant that would normally grow 6 feet tall was engineered to mature at 12 inches by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego.
The same technique worked with the Arabidopsis plant, a member of the mustard family that, like tobacco, is frequently used in genetic studies.

Release is a glorious metal ribbon sculpture featuring several looping strips of carefully cut silver aluminum, masterfully formed into an elegant body. This piece takes on a different life from different angles, however the most notable might be that of a lovely elegant swan, the essence of which is captured in abstract perfection. Nicholas textures the metal surface with a soft grind pattern to create variation and high and lowlights as both ambient and direct light reflections are distributed across the surface.

Auburn's Whitney Boddie (44) shoots over Ohio State's Marscilla Packer (22) during the first half
Nov. 25, 2007
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Sherell Hobbs scored 21 points, Whitney Boddie had 20 and DeWanna Bonner added 16 Sunday to lead No. 24 Auburn past No. 15 Ohio State 67-58 for the Buckeye Classic title.
Hobbs had 13 points in the first half as the Tigers (6-0) built the lead to 16 before the Buckeyes (5-1) rallied to trail 40-30 at the break. Jantel Lavender scored 16 of her 22 points in the second half for Ohio State.
The Buckeyes pulled to 63-55 with 3:50 to play, but Boddie put back an uncontested rebound after Trevesha Jackson missed both free throws to put an end to Ohio State's comeback bid.
Auburn was 18-of-32 (56.3 percent) from the field in the first half, but just eight of 28 in the second. They were able to maintain the lead by making 10 of 17 free throws in the final 20 minutes.
Ohio State was averaging 80.2 points per game but missed all 10 of its 3-point attempts and committed 14 turnovers to 12 for the Tigers.

The Illusion of Separateness (Paperback)
On Our Shelves Now
Staff Reviews
I've always been a sucker for cross-generational tales of intertwined lives and the unexpected glues which hold them together, but sometimes they sadly feel contrived. Not so with Van Booy's dazzling story of random acts of kindness and mercy and their unexpected ramifications; this is a restrained, poetic message brimming with love and wonder. --Todd— From Staff Picks - Todd
July 2013 Indie Next List
"Simon Van Booy's newest novel reminded me simply what it means to take joy in reading again. The story, spanning over a number of decades, delicately intertwines the lives of several characters who at a glance seem like strangers at first, but are in fact are making unforgettable impacts on each others' lives. This marvelously written book sinks its teeth into the hell of war, the pain and unspeakable joy of loving another human being, and what it means to grow up and grow older. With the introduction of each new character, pieces of the story begin to fall flawlessly into place, building upon a truth that Van Booy clings to- that there are no coincidences and the experiences we share with others are vital in shaping who we are as individuals. He has crafted such a delicious story with such believable and personable characters that it was difficult to put this book down!"
— Hannah Hester, Lemuria Bookstore, Jackson, MS
The characters in Simon Van Booy's The Illusion of Separateness discover at their darkest moments of fear and isolation that they are not alone, that they were never alone, that every human being is a link in a chain we cannot see. This gripping novel--inspired by true events--tells the interwoven stories of a deformed German infantryman; a lonely British film director; a young, blind museum curator; two Jewish American newlyweds separated by war; and a caretaker at a retirement home for actors in Santa Monica. They move through the same world but fail to perceive their connections until, through seemingly random acts of selflessness, a veil is lifted to reveal the vital parts they have played in one another's lives, and the illusion of their separateness.
