SPECIES– Atlantic Goliath Grouper (Epinephelus itajara)
CURRENT RANGE– From North Carolina to Brazil; Congo to Senegal
CURRENT THREAT– Overfishing; Slow Reproduction
CURRENT STATUS– Critically Endangered
WHERE YOU CAN SEE THEM– Florida Keys, the Caribbean
When you think of the largest fish in the ocean, images of sharks, marlins and even tuna probably come to mind first. Another one you'd be wise to start considering is the Atlantic goliath grouper, a huge saltwater fish that leisurely swims in reefs and mangroves between North Carolina and Brazil, and also those along the West African coast. The average adult stretches 43-53 inches, but some have been measured at double theatlength. Goliath groupers, which mostly feed on crustaceans and smaller fish, have been known to weigh in at over 700 pounds.
During a recent visit to the Georgia Aquarium, a guide was sharing interesting facts about the "Tropical Diver" exhibit. When a visitor asked about one particularly inactive fish, the guide said, "Oh, that's the goliath grouper." The visitor went on to say how much he enjoyed eating grouper, to which the guide responded, "Don't eat this one. They don't grow fast enough." And he's right. This species is deemed critically endangered by the IUCN because of its reproductive issues (slow growth, late sexual maturity) and overfishing.
Because of excessive fishing, the goliath grouper was considered commercially extinct in the US in the 1980s. The outlook was equally deplorable down in the Caribbean. In America, however, a fishing ban was placed on the species in 1990. Thankfully, the population has slowly rebounded over the past 20+ years in Florida. But across the rest of the Atlantic, numbers are down some 80%. Groups like Florida State University's Coleman & Koening Laboratory are promoting mangrove protection and trying to shift the public's perception of the goliath grouper as being nothing more than a big, lazy nuisance. And, of course, dinner… –DeMarco Williams

Woah! Goliath is right!!! Can't believe a fish that big exists!!!
That's one huge fish! Sometimes its more scary thinking what enormous fresh water creatures lurk in the river, don't you think? River Monsters is one of my favorite shows. Gives Jaws and other sharks a run for their money!
What an almighty large fish! Haha, got to love anthropomorphism – who's to say whether or not the goliath grouper is lazy?!
Love diving and always disheartened by endangered species from the oceans. Especially when you hear about super-trawlers etc.
What an amazing looking fish. I'm glad to hear they're making a rebound in numbers.
Well, I want to do this for my report, but I also want to do the blue whale. I need some help. I love both. They're both so interesting, too. Which one should I do? They're both big animals. They're just so awesome!

Two motorists were hurt around 5 a.m. Friday when two cars, one of which was traveling the wrong way, crashed head-on on I-280 in Lake Township, the Ohio Highway Patrol said.
Sharron Jones, 64, of Toledo, the driver who was going the wrong way, was taken to St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center, troopers at the patrol's Toledo post said. She was admitted to the hospital, where her condition was unavailable Friday morning, according to a hospital spokesman.
John Panuto, 39, whose driver's license carries a Tiffin address, was taken to Bay Park Community Hospital, Oregon, according to the patrol. A hospital spokesman said Friday morning she had no information about a person by that name.
Ms. Jones was southbound on northbound I-280 just south of State Rt. 795 about 5 a.m. when the two cars collided, the troopers said.
Ms. Jones had gotten on the expressway from the Greenbelt Parkway entrance ramp and had traveled about 10 miles on the expressway before the crash. She was cited for driving the wrong way on a divided highway, according to the patrol.
The crash remained under investigation.

As someone who drives along Northern Boulevard (NY Route 25A) almost daily, several months ago I noticed that the road was badly in need of repair. I immediately contacted the New York State Department of Transportation (DOT) and advocated that they make Route 25A a top priority in terms of their road work. And they listened. Now the road is as smooth as glass.
I would like to thank the DOT for the repairs and improvements they made to this heavily traveled road. I also want to thank everyone who contacted my District Office to express their concerns about the condition of Northern Boulevard.
I wish you and your family a happy holiday season and safe travels. As always, if you would like information on a state related matter, please feel free to call my District Office at (516) 482-6966.

I recently ran across (again) this fabulous article called "Pillow Talk" in Southern Living Before and Afters from July 2009. It talks about pillow placement and "to ditch the pillows that came with your sofa and start with a blank canvas." Here is there fabulous example.
It was time for me to make an instant couch make-over!! Here are there specs.
1. The Anchor Pillows (the two on the end) should be a matching pair but does not match the couch. Check.
2. Interest Pillows should be "two pillows with different fabrics and shapes for off-center interest." Well, I kinda did this. If you notice the Monogram pillow in the sample is in the center. I decided I didn't like the monogram pillow in the center because it matched the other interest pillow. Semi-check
3. Statement Pillow (Center) should be a large lumbar pillow. This pillow matches my dining room and pulls that pattern into the living room. Check.
Now here is a snapshot of this wall. I think it is coming together nicely.
All these pillows were made by me. So, if I every get bored with them or it just stops working for me I can make some new ones. I love Pillows!!
Thank you Southern Living. My couch looks very southern now!!

"I already had the sensibility of taking my work out of the theater into the outdoors," he said. "It became part of my DNA."
Though Koplowitz has gone on to create a number of dances for conventional theaters, he has become best known for his site-specific works, which at times have involved hundreds of dancers, thousands of audience viewers and locales as varied as the windows of New York City's Grand Central Station, a German coal factory and the British Library in London. In these places, Koplowitz's dancers have raced across narrow catwalks, wrestled with machinery and rolled between stacks of books. Uniting the works is Koplowitz's quest to create compelling interactions between people, nature and architecture, and his results have frequently been critically acclaimed.
"Like a calm unfurling of the sea," wrote one critic on the The Dance Insider Web site in describing performers successively "trickling and rolling" down steps in Koplowitz's 2004 "Grand Step Project." In that work, Koplowitz used 50 dancers to explore the kinetic possibilities of six major New York City staircases.
At 52 and the new dean of California Institute of the Arts dance program, Koplowitz is currently preparing to make his Los Angeles debut with what he calls his most ambitious project to date.
"I definitely have never done anything like this before," he said.
The "this" refers to TaskForce, Koplowitz's new company of eight dancers who will embark on a three-year exploration of public sites related to water in Los Angeles, England and Germany. The project, called, "Liquid Landscapes," has as its premiere a weeklong series of performances in Los Angeles at the end of June and entails dancers performing a mix of set choreography and improvisational movement at the Los Angeles River, the Farmers Market, under the Spring Street Bridge downtown and at nearby California Plaza, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, the Port of Los Angeles and the beaches in Malibu.
As they travel from site to site, the dancers will draw from three repositories of material: movements that will be performed at all the sites, rehearsed movement specifically for one site and structured improvisations that stem from interacting with a particular site.
"You could look at the dancers as water," Koplowitz said. "Water takes the shape of whatever container it's in, and we're going to try to adhere to the shape of each site."
Speaking by phone from his office at CalArts, Koplowitz comes across as gregarious and thoughtful. Though he hadn't yet begun rehearsing with his dancers, he knew for certain that his latest work "is not a show. They're more like events, happenings or installations," he said, noting that other visual and performing artists will appear at the various sites and juxtapose their own work with the dancers' movements. "This should add another layer of spontaneity."
The dancers will have only three weeks of rehearsal time to immerse themselves in a process that Koplowitz has spent some 20-odd years refining.
"I am training them to live and breathe site-specific work, so I want them to take ownership of each site," he said. Meaning, "I might give them parameters like, 'Here are three ways of looking at this site, and here are three things we can do here.'"
In the past, Koplowitz has said he takes three elements into consideration when creating site-specific work, the physical site itself, its history and what he contributes as a choreographer. "I always attempt to create a bridge between these three elements, as well as communicating something about people," he said.
Another iron-clad rule for Koplowitz seems to be "always taking the audience into consideration." For example, people attending the Los Angeles River performance will be conducted along the banks as if on a tour, while office workers taking lunch breaks at the tables at California Plaza will be able to see the dancers communing with the Watercourt fountain from any vantage point.
"No one seeing my work should have the equivalent of a bad seat," he said.
Koplowitz's initial "aha" moment as a site-specific artist dates back to 1987, when he created his breakthrough work in Grand Central Station. Called "Fenestrations," Koplowitz positioned 36 dancers so they could be seen performing through different windows of the famous train terminal.
Over the course of two nights, 16,000 people watched lines of dancers walking, running, leaping and collectively creating different shapes and patterns on the glass-encased catwalks behind the windows. Though the movements were often simple and pedestrian, critics lauded the work for its wit and clarity.
"I was inspired by the walls of the building and the homelessness that infused the place," Koplowitz said. "And when I saw everyone in that terminal had a front row seat to the work just by tilting their head and looking upward, I was like, 'Oh my God, that is powerful.' There is this allure to make work on a scale where you can enter into a dialogue with the public in a way you can't necessarily do in a conventional theater."
Raised in Washington, D.C., and Paris, Koplowitz grew up with a father who worked for the CIA but also wrote music and poetry. His aunt was a professional opera singer, and he found himself drawn to all artistic mediums.
"I was interested not only in the arts but in how they connected to people," he said, observing that while he doesn't make "Jewish work, I would call myself a Jewish artist. My art has always been about what it means to be human and to have dialogue and exchange, and I've always associated this with being Jewish."
Koplowitz majored in music at Wesleyan University and unofficially minored in dance. He went onto to receive his master's in fine arts in choreography at the University of Utah, and though he remained passionate about music, "I wanted to plant my pole in contemporary dance, because it was an art form that fully encouraged the blurring of artistic lines," he said. Inspired by choreographers such as Merce Cunningham, who collaborated with musicians and visual artists and multimedia virtuosos like Meredith Monk and Laurie Anderson, Koplowitz settled in New York in 1983 and set out to pursue how ideas could become "conceptually connected to movement. I never was interested in dance for dance's sake," he said.
After 23 years of living in New York and working as both a choreographer and the dance director at Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn, Koplowitz moved to Los Angeles in 2006. His current job at CalArts is essentially his next step as a "full-time educator, which I have been my entire artistic life. It's also another aspect I connect to my Jewish upbringing," he said.
"The connection between art and teaching is an extremely close one for me, and I think that's why I consider the actual process of making work to be so important," he continued. "The teacher in me wants that process to be as healthy as possible."
That might explain why Koplowitz plans to measure the success of "Liquid Landscapes" partially by whether "the process is enjoyable for everyone." Of course, he also hopes his company will "engage the audience on some level. For me, it has been great to get to know Los Angeles this way," he added. "I feel very privileged to do this work."
"TaskForce" performs "Liquid Landscapes" June 29-July 6.

Current Boutique
Gently worn separates from popular mall brands such as Ann Taylor, Theory, and J. Crew fill most of the racks at this local consignment chainlet.

Tagalong husbands won't leave empty-handed—Vineyard Vines boxers and ties are nestled by the rear entrance.
No Place Like Home
5140 Wilson Blvd., 703-243-4424
Vintage furniture and retro knickknacks make up the bulk of the inventory at Covet's downstairs neighbor, where bubbly owner Renee Henninger has a warm greeting for every customer.

4150 Campbell Ave., Suite 104; 703-379-5242
Started by two former politicos, this Village at Shirlington boutique aces conservative chic.

The tongue-in-cheek waxing salon Sisters3 knows that an outfit is only as good as its foundations. That's why the waiting area is stocked with shapewear from Spanx, coquettish Betsey Johnson bras, and even the occasional pasty.

And we love the Urban Aid survival kits, which include the tools to handle everything from accidental spills to one-night stands.
South Moon Under

Three Mall Finds
Ignore the throngs of high-schoolers who sometimes mob the food court—the Fashion Centre at Pentagon City (703-415-2400) is home to three shopping resources you don't want to miss.
Opened in mid-September, New York's luxe accessories emporium Henri Bendel (703-418-1208) is a good resource for gifts—we're suckers for anything covered in those iconic brown and white stripes. The only Washington-area location of Club Monaco (703-413-6642), a favorite for minimalist workwear and slinky cocktail dresses, resides on the third floor. And the Pentagon City Macy's (703-418-4488) is one of the few local branches that carry the store's designer collaborations such as Rachel Rachel Roy and Karl Lagerfeld for Impulse.

Award Estimator
Students and their familes, to the extent that they are able, are expected to contribute to the cost of going to college. The award estimator is provided to help you estimate how much your family may be expected to contribute as well as an estimate as to how much you may be expected to receive in financial aid.
First Step
To use the following Award Estimator, you will be required to visit one of the following websites to get the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). This is NOT what your family will actually be contributing, however it is a calculation (much like tax brackets) as to what your family is expected to contribute.
Second Step
Estimation Process - Now that you have your EFC value, enter the EFC value without any dollar sign ($).
Important Points
- This is an ESTIMATE and not your actual Financial Aid Award
- Do not use EFC of 0 (zero) unless the above calculators state you should use 0 (zero)
- DISCLAIMER: Awards shown assume funding is available in all programs at the time eligibility is determined. However, many programs have limited funding and will not be offered once funds have been exhausted. The only programs that don't usually run out of funding are the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Direct Loans. You are encouraged to submit the FAFSA as soon as possible.

The line is not perpendicular to the intersection, the line IS the intersection...
Find the equation of the plane passing through the intersection of and and passing through
I forgot how these sums are done:Here's what I did:
solving the two equations we get and
hence we get the parametric equation:
hence the direction vectors=
as the line is perpendicular to the intersection, it is also the normal vector of the 3rd plane:

but the answer given in the book is:
What am I doing wrong here?
thanks in advance.
You don't need to. Just choose two points that you know lie on the line, and use the point you are told lies on the plane, to substitute into the plane equation ax + by + cz = d. You will get three equations in three unknowns to solve simultaneously.

Whether you're off on a week-long road trip or away from home for a few hours to run some errands, you'll want to safeguard your residence against burglars.
Your home holds much more than items with a high monetary value. It contains moments and many items that have significant sentimental value. Keeping thieves out of your home ensures that those valuables are protected from sticky fingers. Here are a few tips that may help with deterring burglars from targeting or successfully robbing your home:
Carefully store your lock boxes.
Keeping your valuables in a lock box goes a long way for keeping unwanted hands off your prized possessions. When storing your lockbox, be sure to hide it somewhere where burglars will not typically search for valuables. Additionally, when you're on the road, be sure to store your valuables in a lockbox in your car so you can head off for a hike or a bite to eat without worrying about the safety of your belongings.
Keep your property pristine.
If you are going to be gone for a few days, have someone pick up your mail and newspapers. Additionally, enlist someone to take care of your landscaping. When thieves are scouting houses to rob, they look for signs that no one has been home for a while.
Invest in motion sensor lighting.
Consider installing exterior lights that come with motion sensors. They may give a potential thief the impression that you are actually home. Furthermore, you can be alerted if someone is sneaking around your home while you're there.
Get to know your neighbors.
Your neighbors are there for more than borrowing a cup of sugar or a leaf blower. When you have a friendly relationship with your neighbors, they may be more inclined to inform you or the police of any suspicious people or occurrences on your property. When they are out of town, you can keep eye on their home to establish a mutually beneficial relationship.
Be proactive with your landscaping.
If you have a home with a lot of shrubs and trees, make sure they are properly trimmed, as overgrown foliage serves as a good hiding place for burglars skulking around your home. If you have considered adding a bush or two to your yard, lean on the conservative side to make your home a less desirable target.
Close your garage.
Open garages give potential burglars a view of the valuables stored in there, and they can act as a point of entry. If you are not in your garage for an extensive period of time, keep the door closed.
Shut your blinds and curtains.
It is nice to let some sunlight in during the day, but open blinds and curtains may give a thief a good peek at your valuables. Avoid creating an open view into your home by keeping the windows covered in any room you are not currently in and double-checking that all of your curtains and blinds are closed before you hit the road.

Bogus police bank scam widespread
Residents to remain vigilant following bank related fraudster scams.
Surrey Police detectives are warning residents to remain vigilant after several further reports of scams involving fraudsters obtaining bank details, cards and cash using bogus telephone calls and couriers across the county.
Over the weekend police received a total of 12 reports from members of the public in the Guildford and Woking areas who had received telephone calls from someone claiming to a police officer or similar who were attempting to convince victims to hand over large amounts of cash and bank cards.
On each occasion the victims reported receiving telephone calls from someone claiming to be a police officer and attempting to convince them to hand over large amounts of cash and bank cards.
Sussex woman loses thousands
Two people in Eastbourne and Rye have become the latest victims of fraudsters phoning and pretending to be police officers. They tell the residents that their bank account has been compromised and that they need to withdraw thousands of pounds for examination and give it to a courier.
An elderly man in Eastbourne was called on 30 September but became suspicious and did not hand over any money. A few days later a woman in Rye however withdrew a large amount of money and gave it to the courier that arrived.
Jet skier rescued by lifeboat
Rye Harbour RNLI Lifeboat B-842 Hello Herbie was launched to assist a broken down Jet Ski over the weekend. The Jet Ski had been tied to the wall of the River Rother just inside the harbour mouth.
Due to the tide dropping fast, the Jet Ski was left hanging causing the rear of the craft to become submerged.
Police appeal for witnesses after fatal crash
Woman killed in car crash is named
A woman who died after a crash in Rye on Tuesday 7th May has now been formally named. 62-year old Sandra Collison, of Holmwood Farm Lane, Camber, was driving her blue Peugeot 107, towards Rye, when it was in collision with a white Mercedes goods van that was travelling towards Winchelsea.
She died at the scene.
The van driver, a 51-year old Maidstone man, received minor injuries and was taken to the Conquest Hospital at Hastings for treatment.
Two Men Held After Air Rifle Attack
Two men have been bailed after shooting man in the face
John Adams is at risk of losing an eye after he was shot in the face with an air rifle on Saturday night. The Environment Agency worker tried to prevent thieves stealing his white Toyota van, when he was attacked out side his home in Harbour Road in Rye.
A 41-year-old from Ashford and a 28-year-old from Maidstone were arrested on the 15th August in conjunction with Kent Police. They have been released on conditional bail until 11 September.
Detectives are appealing for witnesses who may have seen Mr Adam's Environment Agency van being towed between Rye and Charing in Kent, late on Saturday night. The van's s bumper was damaged whilst it was being towed.

Man shot in face by air rifle
Thieves shoot man and take his van
Police are appealing for witnesses after a 43-year-old man was injured as he tried to prevent thieves from stealing his van near his home in Rye.
The victim was told men were trying to break into his Toyota Hilux van in Rye Harbour Road just before midnight on Saturday, 11th August.
He went out to investigate and was confronted by men, who drove at him with their dark coloured car. He jumped out of the way and was shot at with an air rifle suffering injuries to his face. The callous thieves then towed away his van, which has an Environment Agency sign on it, and made off.
The victim is being treated for his injuries at the William Harvey Hospital in Ashford and his condition is stable.

Executing variables that contain shell operators
I touched a little on pipes in a previous post. Here's a quick example of an
echo utility which outputs two lines, and a pipe operator which redirects that output to a
grep utility which performs a simple filter to only include lines that contain the word "cat":
shell$ echo -e 'the cat \n sat on the mat' | grep cat
the cat
Cool - since that worked, what do you think will happen if you do the following?
shell$ cmd="echo -e 'the cat \n sat on the mat' | grep cat"
shell$ ${cmd}
In the above example we're simply assigning the original utility to a shell variable, and then executing it. So why, then, would the output be this?
shell$ ${cmd}
'the cat
sat on the mat' | grep cat
This is something that has bitten me in the past when I write shell scripts. What's happening here is that the shell executes the contents of variable
cmd as a single command, which means that everything after
echo are treated as arguments to the echo utility, including the pipe.
What we actually need to happen is to have the entire contents of
cmd evaluated by the shell so that the shell can create the pipeline between the two utilities. This is where the utility eval comes into play -
eval tells the shell to concatenate the arguments and have them executed by the shell.
shell$ eval ${cmd}
the cat
The morale of this story is that if you want to execute a variable that includes any shell constructs (such as the pipe in our example) - then make sure you
eval. Examples of shell constructs include redirections (i.e.
echo "the cat" > file1.txt), shell conditionals, loops and functions.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- From Lockheed Martin
"If you are talking about hackers that work for foreign governments, then I think the focus would continue with defense contractors as well as anything related to the U.S. infrastructure," said Jim Stickley of cyber security specialist TraceSecurity. "That could include the power grids as well as oil refinery companies and phone systems."
Underlining the importance of this issue, the National Security Agency has reportedly started a project called "Perfect Citizen," which aims to monitor key infrastructure such as power grids and nuclear reactors for potential cyber attacks. The NSA has not yet responded to TheStreet's request for comment on this story.
Attacks that temporarily knock out an organization's Web site, such as the ones which recently targeted the CIA and the IMF, are also likely to proliferate, according to John D'Arcy, an assistant professor at the University of Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business."The next likely target will be a high-profile government Web site or system, or else one of the larger U.S. companies' sites such as Google
TraceSecurity's Stickley also notes a new approach from some hackers shifting their approach away from individual consumers.
"The next generation of attacks will focus less on the home users and more on the employees of organizations," he said. "
Set against this backdrop, Mike Prettejohn, a director of U.K.-based Internet services firm Netcraft told TheStreet that he expects to see businesses focus attention on application-level security. F5 Networks

Ugh. I'm voting for Palin
Last night's debate disgusted me. Obama blah-blahed the same old lines, no change and no hope there. He continued to dodge the softball, non-followed-up questions about how he plans to pay for his vastly expanded nanny-state empire, denies he will raise taxes at all on 95% of Americans (beyond laughable, to ignore the disastrous consequences of his "economic plan"), and kept blowing the same old nonsensical lines that seem to resonate so feelingly with ignorant citizens mesmerized by the gloss and the mellifluous voice.
Meanwhile, McCain refused to make points about how bad Obama really is. Time and again he let Obama's deceptive and sophomoric comments go effectively unchallenged. Not long after McCain advocated renegotiating mortgages to keep people in their homes (by fixing prices, breaking contracts and destroying the mortgage market and all incentives and expectations with it), and started babbling about global warming, I had to turn off the television. This man, McCain, who supposedly is running a reformist, anti-big-government campaign, can't seem to understand fully what he's even proposing. This is no surprise, as McCain is still being McCain, as his record has always reflected. It is just depressing that these two candidates are the "best" choice we have in this election while we wage war on two fronts, parry with international jihad, and try to mince our way through the current financial landmine.
As a Wall Street Journal review more or less says today, if this is the best John McCain can do, he deserves to lose the election. Sadly, true. Except that Obama as President would be immeasurably more clueless and infinitely worse as a loose cannon on the domestic and the international scenes. Add in his probable appointees, and a Democrat-controlled Congress unleashed and led by the current insane clown posse of Pelosi, Reid, and such Dems as "Fannie is fine" Barney Frank and "What taxes?" Charles Rangel, and it's time to hunker in the bunker and kiss the American Dream goodbye.
I'm voting for Sarah Palin. I'm giving no blanket mandate to John McCain's policies, now or forever. And I'm not looking to government to solve any of my problems. I'm just praying government stays out of the way, out of the business and out of the personal lives and decisions of my law-abiding family and me. I guess that's kind of a vote for no hope and no change. But it does explain why conservatives like me advocate for as little government as possible. We need to contain all these Washington reps, both the corrupt, ambitious poseurs and the honest ignorants, to having as little power over Americans' lives as possible.

Moot Court team advances to national finals
The College of Law's Moot Court team is advancing to the national finals of the American Bar Association's National Appellate Advocacy Competition, April 12-14 in Chicago.
Members of the team are Jacqueline Dobbert, a second-year law student from Greentown, Ind., and Rachel Kopec, a third-year law student from Maple Heights, Ohio. Kyle Novak, a third year law student from Dexter, Mich., is the student coach and faculty coach is Joanne Brant, professor of law.
Coach Novak said, "Jackie and Rachel were one of five teams in the 40-team Washington, D.C., region to advance to the national finals in Chicago. After losing their first two rounds by slim margins, Jackie and Rachel won the third round by a large margin to become the only 1-2 team to advance to the 20-team playoff. In the first round of the playoffs, we faced the number one-seeded team in the entire region and beat them 2-1 to advance to the regional finals. They then faced another higher seeded team and beat them 4 to 1 to advance to the national finals in Chicago. It is my understanding that no ABA team from ONU has ever advanced to the national finals. Jackie was also named the third best advocate in the entire region of over 100 advocates. Jackie and Rachel outscored every team they faced on oral arguments scores alone."

Amie Raney had just walked into the nail salon when she got the phone call from the babysitter that every parent dreads. Amie's 10-year-old son, Lucas, needed emergency help. He had been tapping a quarter on his tooth while watching TV, and he accidentally swallowed it. The quarter was stuck in his airway.
Paramedics rushed Lucas to the closest hospital where pain medication relaxed him enough for the quarter to slide down to his stomach. At that point, it was a waiting game to see if the coin would make its way out on its own. After nearly two weeks, the quarter was still in Lucas' stomach.
When it came time to surgically remove the quarter, Amie and her husband, Lanny, took their son to Children's, a place he knew well. Seven years ago, Lucas was diagnosed with leukemia at the hospital and underwent three years of treatment in the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders there.
Dr. Ashish Patel, GI specialist at Children's, removed the quarter with a tool called the coin grasper and placed it in a container for Lucas to keep.
"Most of the time parents think their child has swallowed a quarter or a silver dollar, and coins all look the same in X-rays," Dr. Patel said. "I go in expecting to find all this money, and I come out with pennies. This time they were right."

I've recently discovered The Organised Housewife, a blogger who shares great tips on home organisation. This blog appeals to me because I am a very organised person. I often get told I should be a party planner because I love organising so much! However in the home it's more "organised chaos" – I know exactly where things are in a messy pile and it drives my very neat partner bonkers. It drives me bonkers too! I started a magnetic task board which has helped, but I still need tips and most of all motivation to really organise our house once and for all!
So…. I'm taking the 20 days to organise and clean your home challenge!
Why is organisation in the home important?
- Clutter usually means unneccesary 'stuff', by de-cluttering you begin to realise how little you really need! I realised this recently when I took my friend's wardrobe de-clutter challenge.
- Clutter and disorganisation can often mean a dirty home. You can't dust properly when you've got a bunch of stuff in your way! A clean home means a healthier home.
- There's the "messy home, messy mind" theory. Having an organised space does wonders for your clearing your head. Don't you always feel good when the house has been freshly cleaned?
Heck, what have we got to lose? I figure this challenge should, at the very least, give me some new tricks right? At least the house will get clean!
So…… who's gonna join me?

Barry surprised at streetcar plan from Barry mayoralty
During the streetcar debate, Councilmember Marion Barry (Ward 8) has repeatedly expressed puzzlement that a streetcar is planned on H Street. He seems to think the idea suddenly appeared out of the blue. However, he shouldn't be surprised: his own administration published a plan with that very project in 1997.
During Tuesday's discussion of the streetcar overhead wire emergency legislation, Barry criticized the way, as he saw it, H Street suddenly appeared on the streetcar plan after not being "part of the discussion." His comments start at 1:26:05 on OCT's recording:
I support streetcars. what I don't support ... is this haphazard way of planning. ... 37 miles of streetcar. No involvement from the community, no involvement from anybody except themselves. ... Originally as I understand it ... it would be Georgia Avenue and Anacostia. And so all of a sudden we have H Street which was not part of the discussion and we have some other areas.This is a repeat of some of his comments from the May 26 debate when streetcars were being cut and later restored (at 24:18):
Our original plan was to go from Bolling Air Force Base down to Anacostia station. ... Down Martin Luther King, up Good Hope Road, and maybe across the 11th Street bridge to Capitol Hill. All of a sudden I hear from somewhere that H Street is on the agenda.The H Street streetcar is a brand-new idea that suddenly appeared? Mr. Barry had never heard of the concept?
If that's right, then Mr. Barry must not have ever read the 1997 transportation plan published by the government of the District of Columbia, Marion Barry, Mayor. That plan shows a streetcar on H Street, but no streetcar at all in Anacostia.
The only things the Barry Administration had in mind for River East, besides the end of the Benning Road line, was some municipal parking for commuters, a freeway extension, truck-to-rail intermodal centers (the brown targets), some truck routes, and a trail connecting the fort parks. Here's the complete page, including the key.
Since then, a streetcar did get planned for Anacostia, and it's still being built. Despite Councilmember Barry's confusion, it's still going to go to Anacostia station, and eventually across the 11th Street bridge. It just won't go to Bolling, because that doesn't help any of the residents of Ward 8, and almost nobody would ride it.
A lot of people seem to have gotten the idea that the streetcars have had no planning. As this plan shows, that planning dates to 1997. Since then, there have been two very exhaustive reports, in 2005 and 2010, which streetcar head Scott Kubly said cost about a million dollars to make. The latest one includes station locations, costs, ridership estimates, and economic development analyses of each potential line segment. (Unless people haven't read the report because the DDOT site makes viewing PDFs so unpleasant.)
It's true that before Kubly took over the streetcar program, communication was pretty poor. The streetcar line in Anacostia got rerouted several times with very little public debate or awareness. But more recently, DDOT has been planning up a storm.
The only problem is that many elected officials seem not to be reading the plans. At the hearing on the overhead wire bill, Councilmember Phil Mendelson asked me several questions about the H Street line which he said hadn't been planned. The only problem was, the answers to his questions were in the voluminous packet of information DDOT had sent to the Council in response to their questions.
And despite Councilmember Barry's impression, there have been numerous DDOT public forums about streetcars. Again, it took a while; B.K. (Before Kubly), the Sierra Club spent almost a year trying to get DDOT officials to talk about streetcars. But starting with the August 7, 2009 community meeting, there has been substantial community involvement and many community meetings in all eight wards.
DDOT representatives have attended ANC and citizens' association meetings from Georgetown to Trinidad, and even upper Connecticut Avenue neighborhoods that aren't even slated for a streetcar but want one. Here's an announcement for a November 2009 meeting in Anacostia. Was Councilmember Barry there?
In project after project, no matter how much public outreach government officials do, some people still insist that they never heard about the meetings and there wasn't enough consultation. In this case, DDOT is moving quickly, and many people seem to mistake moving quickly for lack of planning. Those of us who keep up with the streetcar plans feel there is plenty of planning. If people haven't bothered to read the plans, well, I encourage it. They're pretty good.
Slow news day, David?

The only thing to come of fruition on that map is the NY Ave Metro station.
Getting to Anacostia was the hard nut to crack for streetcars because no one was willing to proposed another bridge across the Anacostia river in the aftermath of the Barney Circle freeway debacle.
Fully support adding Southern Ave between Branch Ave & Naylor Rd.
Too bad the plan for Georgia Ave/7th Street was never done.
Have YOU bothered to read that response? ... There's a lot of muckty-muck dancing around the questions, with answers such as 'we plan to study this aspect of your question', or the like. But no real substantive responses to probably 90% of the questions.
It seems adequately detailed for a project at this phase of development. In real transportation projects, all minor details are not always decided before the contracts are awarded.
Has there been any evaluation of: the amount and timing of such an assessment?
For the purposes of planning DDOT assumed that the amount would be sufficient to fund the network on a pay-go basis. This means that the proposed assessment is higher but assessed for a shorter duration than if this funding source was bonded against.
This is typical of the answers. There are some pretty big 'details' left unanswered ... and unevaluated. Big enough to suck us down a black hole financially. And ensure the streetcar 'system' goes nowhere but 'up and down H St NE' ... not even reaching Union Station ...
However, they still haven't finalized the exact location of the grab bars, or which seat covering to use, because part of the process involves getting a test car and trying it out with riders to see what works, and getting input once the test cars are in.
That's not a lack of planning, it's just that when you do projects like this, not every single detail has to be worked out well ahead of time. You just have to work out enough details to be confident that you know what you're building and that you want it. DDOT has.
by David Alpert on Jul 2, 2010 7:13 am • link • report
The traditional, 20th century view is that project managers hold endless meetings with stakeholders to gather requirements and create a detailed plan as the first stage of any project (the Big Design Up Front method). And even though the vast majority of major projects are delivered very late, over-budget and lacking many requirements that popped up during the project, we still insist that projects be done this way.
Architects are switching to design-build, software managers are switching to agile methodologies, and project managers in other industries are finally adopting lean practices. Because no amount of feedback to a paper plan is nearly as valuable as observing how people actually use a product, and during the years it takes to create your Big Design Up Front many requirements change.
Gabe Klein comes from the business world and has said several times he wants to run DDOT like a business. So, I'm not surprised he put a single bike lane out there with less "stakeholder input" than his predecessor might have, because the use of the initial bike lane was the input and the lessons learned will reduce rework costs and improve quality for all future lanes. The same is true for the streetcar. The use of the initial streetcar line is essential input into the design of the rest of the streetcar network, far more meaningful than feedback to the 300-page plan that DDOT circulates for stakeholder feedback.
Klein is creating a more agile DDOT that may be a model for other transportation agencies going forward.
You keep saying DDOT bought wire powered cars without knowing how to run them. False. They bought the cars for the Anacostia line which allows wires. No cars have been bought for H Street yet. But now the law allows wires there.
They know where it's going to go. There's a map with lines. Other than changes which might come up 5, 10, or more years down the road as things evolve (which happened with Metro too), we know where it's going to go.
How to pay for it? There was a pot of money supposed to go to Metro for capital but which wasn't because of the FTA. That was what was going to be used. Plus the administration had identified some projects they didn't need to spend money on. That's how budgeting works. They had a plan for paying for it, and the plan was in the budget.
by David Alpert on Jul 2, 2010 9:18 am • link • report
That was during the Control Board era, Barry didnot control that department. The District has some serious plans for light rail, but what is going on now is gimmicky stuff and "show and tell". This is the same gimmicky approach to transit development that has Metro in a mess now. BTW, just raising real estate values has not been shown to result in good development. One of the reasaon there are so many empty store fronts in new developments. Because of this the only people coming into retial spaces are "bars" and chains.

- Are public spaces really public when not everybody can use them?
- Cell service in tunnels, junking old rail cars, getting finances in order. Here's what's in Metro's Back2Good plan.
- What happens when people without cars move to places built for driving?
- If racial inequities didn't exist, DC would look like this...
- Metro now has an official plan for getting better in 2017. It's called Back2Good.
- WMATA recommended express bus service along 14th Street NW four years ago. Is it time to make it happen?
- The DC reps on the WMATA board might veto late-night closures

I've been playing guitar for about 6 years, but where my technique fourishes, my theory lacks.. I've been playing mostly in Minor for the last 2 years. I just started playing phrygian while writing songs, and i love how it sounds. But I've been listening to a lot of Opeth and Darkane, and they seem to switch to different modes a lot in the midst of their songs. Thing is, whenever I write something in a certain mode(lets say minor, for the sake of discussion) I have a hard time fitting in a riff that's in a different mode(like phrygian) yet other bands seem to do it so easily. And it's not that i can't just put them together and play them, it's the fact that it always comes out sounding weird, and it seems like the song isn't flowing together like it should.. I know there are plenty of experienced and very skilled musicians on this forum and I hope i can get a good answer because i want to be a more versatile player, especially when writing music. I don't wanna just stay on one path the whole time. Any help is appreciated! thanks in advance.

About Us
The Chambers Farm Family
We are dedicated to learning and teaching about the Native American way of life sometimes referred to as "The Native Path". We welcome all peoples to our gatherings regardless of race, religion or spiritual beliefs. We have a creed: "Come in Peace-Leave in Peace". We do not tolerate drugs or alcohol on the property and this rule is strictly enforced. We also do not accept any racial, religious or spiritual bias on the grounds, however we always welcome open, peaceful and truthful conversations where all people may learn and grow.
Our family is made up of many different people who all share a common theme and that is to be of service to others, to share our knowledge, to learn from others and most importantly to have fun in life. Many of our family are the Vendors who set up and display their wares during the gatherings. Life on the road often appears to be romantic to those who visit us but in reality can be a trial of faith. So coming to "The Farm" is more than an opportunity to sell but a time of renewal and a time to have fun. Please visit the "Vendors" page to learn more. Besides the Vendors are all the Volunteers who contribute enormous amounts of time and materials to keep the grounds in top shape. These people are the backbone of The Farm and come from many different walks in life. They are welders, electricians, carpenters and plumbers; business owners, executives, doctors and lawyers; wives, husbands, fathers, mothers and our precious children. Yes, our children who are the future learn respect, responsibility and reality. Reality being how to deal with real life situations that are not always pleasant but are a part of everyday life. There is a group who call themselves "Long Camp". In addition to being the primary grounds keepers between gatherings they are also recognized as respected elders and serve a major purpose where the children are concerned. They are the mediators, the counselors, who when a problem arises, are called upon to find a peaceful resolution. Through this process our children (of all ages) learn to settle differences in a good way, a non-violent way, a fair way. Lessons we learn at an early age stay with us our entire lives.
So what does it take to become a member of our family? Well there are no forms to fill out, no membership fees, no secret handshakes or interviews before a committee. Simply come to "The Farm" and help out wherever it is needed. (Visit the "Volunteer" and "Work Days" pages) Introduce yourself, make yourself known through your good works, laugh truly, longly and loudly. Be humble, be honorable, be a warrior by being a true human being with compassion, love and dedication to the rest of your family.
Wado is a Native word which may be translated as "Thank You" or "It is Good"

Technical Resources
Can Conservation Districts, RC&Ds or other traditional NRCS conservation partners register as TSPs and then compete with other TSPs?
NRCS conservation partners who directly compete with TSPs must separate from NRCS facilities prior to the partner entering into the TSP marketplace. The partner may not use NRCS facilities, files, or equipment for the purpose of providing services as a Technical Service Provider.
It should be noted that this does not apply to partners who are fulfilling Contribution Agreements with NRCS to provide technical services. Contribution Agreements are non-competitive and the partner contributes 50% of the cost of providing the services.

Bio and Links
Hi, I am Billy .......
(Last updated 16 Dec 2012)
Due to my Dad's death, I have taken over my dad's work on the Womble Family Tree. The Family tree goes back to the 1600's when the Wombles(Wombwell) came over from England to Virginia.((( Some of the first settlers of this family name or some of its variants were: Thomas Wombwell who settled in Virginia in 1648 ))) Sometime in the early 1700's the Wombles move to Edgecombe County, NC.
Edgecombe became a County 1741
Nash become a County 1771
Wilson become a County 1855
These are the 3 main Counties for the Womble
(The early years) ....
John Womble b.1756/d.1821
OFF of John William Womble b.1837/d.1904:
There are very few "Womble" (name Womble) left in Edgecombe County from the blood line. There is a lot of, next to kin, still there farming the home stead.
The Family Tree is not just of the Womble but it goes in all direction. You can follow the links I made on Fine A Grave. My dad did not take pictures of any headstones. SO, since I am out there anyway, why not take pictures of other headstones.
The County I will be going to is Harnett, Johnston, Wilson, Nash and Edgecombe, all in NC.
These are the main Counties.
I made this line for family members who would like to trace their family ancestry.
I prefer you to send me information on Find A Grave Memorial. Once I know there is an interest on that person, I will add the information and add some other information that I can find and sometimes I will start a family member search.(Trace their family tree) I love doing this and I do this for free.
Please do not ask for a Transfer just to own it.
Please add or contact me if you have family photos .......

I notice you are managing this man's memorial. I was recently came across the honorable discharge papers for him from his service in WW1. I saved the papers hoping to find one of his family members who might like to have them as part of their genealogical treasures. Are you related to Mr Pittman? Do you know someone who would like these papers?

Hi Billy,
Lunsford George H. Pittman was my Great Great Grandfather and I have found some information on him after he migrated to West Tennessee. However I have not be able to connect him to his parents. I see your Pittman Family Cemetery Findagrave Memorials #105269023 and #105268969 indicate he was a child of Grisham Coffield Pittman and Mary Lynch Pittman. I assume you have evidence to support this and would appreciate it if you would provide me the data or sources.
Thanks in advance for any information you can provide,
William L. Pittman

Death Date Correction
Billy, I was checking my Wife's Family Cemetery in Four Oaks, NC, Jernigan Family Cemetery and noticed a wrong death date for Ida B. Capps Young, my Wife's Mother, Memorial # 50399085. She actually died in 2002.
I also noticed there were no Family Links to Nannie Mae Young, # 50399152 or William Howard Young, # 50399133. Their Mother was Ida B. Capps Young, # 50399085 and their Father was David Wilmer Young, # 50399102.
My Wife has Family pictures we'd like to add, or have you add, if you don't mind.

Sprint enables new SMS emergency alert system
Sprint Nextel said it is the first U.S. wireless carrier to enable a new SMS-based emergency alert system that the nation's Tier 1 wireless operators and federal agencies rallied around earlier this year.
Sprint said its network now supports the Wireless Emergency Alert system, which will allow the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to deliver warning messages to wireless networks from the president of the United States, the National Weather Service and state and local emergency operations centers.
Customers receive the warnings when their phones are enabled with special chipsets and software and the warnings are sent based upon geolocation. Sprint also said that it will conduct a test of the system later this year in New York City in coordination with federal and local public safety agencies.
