Volume Two of the History of Draper, Utah, is dedicated to
those pioneers who joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who
had a great desire to settle in Zion with other believers. Many sacrificed all
their earthly goods in coming to Zion. Some were appointed by President Brigham
Young to settle in the community known as Sivogah, then later known as South
Willow Creek, Draperville, and finally Draper, Utah. Others came to the area to
be with family members already settled there.
first public school built about 1852 along the north boundary which became part
of the fort, on property which belonged to Guernsey Brown, and was probably used
for church meetings. In the late 1900s it was the home of Louis Dunyon. When it
was razed, the north wall was found to be part of the old Draper fort.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS and APPRECIATION — first, to
members of the Draper History Committee, listed here alphabetically: Marjorie S.
Clements, Maurine S. Cook, Noel H. Enniss, Luana L. Guymon, Paul J. Smith;
second, to the hundreds of individuals who contributed their histories, and
pictures for volume one, People of Draper 1849–1924; third, to Stephen
R. Cook, proofreader; fourth, to Hiller Industries, the publisher of volume one,
our delight in that published book, and appreciation for their bid for printing
this second volume, History of Draper 1849–1977. Fifth, to Blaine H.
Nelson, who spent hours doing housekeeping work on the proofread text, and later
correcting errors found when proofed by the Draper History Committee for final
An expression of gratitude is extended to the Zoo, Arts, and Parks Department
for a $5,000 grant used in publishing this volume of Draper history.
Acknowledgments are not complete until an arm of gratitude is placed around the
shoulders of the hundreds who purchased volume one for themselves and as gifts.
Grants and those who purchased volume one made it possible to make payments to
Hiller Industries until the committee was debt free.
IMPORTANT FACTS: As committee members came to grips with producing volume two
of Draper history, it was evident from the very beginning that all the history
of Draper could not possibly be written in one book. Bits and pieces of history
like snowflakes continued to descend upon the committee during the writing
process, until the committee was forced to set a date when no additional
information could be used in volume two. Many different short histories of
Draper with unknown authors were received. Such histories included one, two, or
more handwritten or typed pages. All histories were read, differences noted, and
with future readers in mind only those parts of histories that generally agreed
on important facts were considered for inclusion in volume two. Some readers may
be upset with selections made by the committee when there was conflicting
information about who built the first home, who fought against the army
commanded by General Albert Sidney Johnston, who owned the first car in Draper,
who was the first to enter the chicken business, and so on. These were the kinds
of choices continually experienced during the writing process.
The committee recognizes that some readers may feel a need to write their own
Draper history so the record can be corrected. No committee member will be
offended should this attitude produce other histories of Draper. Records used in
writing this history will be available in the Draper Historical Society Library
for those individuals having a desire to write their own history.
The history in this book, as said before, although not all inclusive, covers
from 1849 to 1977. It appeared to the committee that history must mature, that
is, time must pass before an accurate appraisal can be made as to what really
constitutes history. For this and other reasons, the committee decided to cover
only the time period from when Draper was settled in 1849 to 1977 when Draper
became a city.
There may be a few mistakes in spelling of names, grammar, dates, and other
parts of the text. Countless hours in research and writing have been expended in
publishing this history, and the committee hopes that through this history all
Draperites can be proud of their Draper roots. An excellent proofreader, Stephen
R. Cook, was engaged by the committee, and they are convinced he has rendered an
excellent service.

Last month, I opened up my cellphone bill, and what I found showed I finally have entered the modern age. I was so excited and horrified I had to take three selfies and put a public notice on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr to take the edge off.
The big news is that last month, I talked on my cellphone for a total of 35 minutes. That amount of time used to be how long it took for my grandmother to describe the events of a busy day, just the first half of a call to catch up with an old friend or the length of a customer service call from the pits of Hades.
At this point, I can't think off-hand of anyone who still gives me a ring. Even my parents text me for the most part, with adorable elements of style intact. They use Internet shorthand, with the occasional emoticon and incorrect autocorrection, which is how my dog's name becomes Midstream, and "Hooray!" turns into "Haitians!"
The speed of texting can't be beat, but there's an authenticity lost in communication when you don't hear someone's voice on the other end of the line.
Somehow, our culture has adjusted so quickly to texts, email and social media that there isn't a word to describe what might be missing.
What I see when I go out is constant interaction with cellphones, even when we're with people who aren't confined to a backlit screen. You can see it at restaurants, gatherings and even huge events. People are together, but not really, because they're constantly brandishing their phones to text or update social media.
I'm guilty of this, too.
I generally follow a rule where I don't talk on the phone in front of other people, but that somehow goes out the window when you can venture into the electric glow and give the false impression that you can admirably pay attention to two things at once.
The truth is, I get bored in all this. I don't want to talk to a computer-phone when there are actual, living, breathing human beings around me, and I feel like this tech dependence stunts conversations.
I don't want to fact-check topics on Wikipedia at a party, and I can't bond over cat videos or anything else on YouTube — unless it's a performance from the "Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" movie. Then, let's talk.
For however much technology brings us together, I think it also can make us lonelier, more disconnected.
For instance, there have been several studies that suggest Facebook makes people feel bad about themselves, since friends always are posting the best possible electronic versions of themselves.
Everyone else has the most adorable kids, the most gorgeous significant other, the most exciting job, the most exotic vacations, is attending the best parties, and you are sitting alone in your efficiency apartment eating unphotogenic food and wondering why you can't get it together.
For however phony it feels to me, I've bought in, just like most of us have.
Let's celebrate with a LAN party, where we can have snacks, LOLs and those special pains that come from never looking away from your screen.
Staff reporter Mollie Bryant can be reached at 806-345-3353 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Waitrose appoints fresh produce buyer in the Channel Islands
Waitrose has appointed Gary Grace as buying adviser of fresh produce in the Channel Islands. Mr Grace will be working across Guernsey and Jersey, supporting the local branches and island producers.
Mr Grace will bring with him 27 years' experience of working in retail and buying produce for Waitrose in the UK. Most recently he worked within the supermarket's meat, fish and poultry departments.
He has already worked extensively in the Channel Islands, having played an instrumental role in the set-up of the five Waitrose branches. Part of this role was in managing the supply of fresh seafood from the Channel Islands to the shops.
Working closely with local producers of meat, poultry, fish, dairy and vegetables to help grow their businesses, Mr Grace will look at a whole range of opportunities, including making the most of seasonal flushes of produce. Key elements of his role will include looking at the seasonality of produce and planning ahead to ensure the stores continue to stock the freshest and highest quality local products, as well as making sure these products are promoted to customers in the right way.
Mr Grace said: "I'm thrilled to be taking on this new role and to be working even more closely with our five branches across Guernsey and Jersey. The Channel Islands are renowned for yielding high quality produce and I'm looking forward to developing successful long-standing relationships with a vast array of local traders."
Neil Ovenden, area manager of Waitrose in the Channel Islands, said: "We are really pleased to announce Gary's appointment and as we move into our second year of trading in the Channel Islands he will be a valuable addition as we strengthen our relationships with Guernsey and Jersey producers."

I noticed that! And did you notice that now, all of a sudden, there's like a back room to the pub that we can see? Before this change was made, that little back room was never there. There was a wall there, that had darts on it. They took down the wall and obviously made the pub larger. I don't know why though. No one is ever back there. It's just windows and tables and chairs.

I was thinking the same thing about Abe and Lexie! With the jobs they have they shouldn't have any problem paying for Theo's therapy. They should be pretty well off with the careers they have.
Tuesday's show was ok. I liked the tension between Bo and Daniel. Bo had some funny comments. That is about the only good thing coming from the Chelsea/Daniel crap though.
|Jul 23 2008, 03:29 PM Post #43
I was thinking the same thing. Abe and Lexie are upper middle class and with their jobs, they should also have excellent health insurance. Paying for therapy shouldn't even be an issue for them. A good writer should make the plot fit the characters, not make the characters fit the plot.
|Jul 23 2008, 03:33 PM Post #44
And that's the key word. :)
|Jul 23 2008, 04:13 PM Post #45
Today's show was better, merely on the fact it didn't have Stax or Chan on it. But to get to what I enjoyed:
Loved Bope stuff, we've not had enough scenes between them. I also loved watching Bo and Philip argue, JKJ and PR have great sibling chemistry and I love how it plays between them.
Loved the Kate/Anna stuff. Now LK and LH have excellent chemistry and though I like seeing them as rivals I could really enjoy them being friends. Maybe Anna could be a pal to Kate when sex with SurferTool comes out...I'm sure she's going to get some spit from the Salemnites for it.
Now Phorgan wasn't as bad as it has been. The thing is...I think Morgan does need to have a breakdown moment and I'm sure a girl her age trying to hold out hope her daddy is alive and ok but finds out they are dragging the river would probably lose it right there in the police station. The problem is though...they have had her become this sobbing mess for weeks now and the only person she leans on is Philip which is annoying. I don't expect all women on TV to be strong 100% of the time, but I do appreciate certain ones who have had a spitfire to them to be able to hold up to a certain amount of pressure and when they lean on someone, they don't flock to the frist good looking guy who is nice to them. At some point, I do think a breakdown can occur and it can happen anywhere, but if it's been OTT emotional 100% of the time whenever "romantic love interest" is around...then it falls flat at moments that should be hold a lot of impact.
|Jul 23 2008, 04:37 PM Post #46
I think Nicol and Trent recently sat there. And Max/Trent had some conversation there too. As for why, I think it�s because the different camera angle. Most of the Pub isn�t visible from the back room so the scenes can be taped separately. So many different storylines now uses the Pub as the central so the actors would have to be there all the time just sitting in the background. Sometimes you can easily tell the scenes were taped at a different time because the cameras are deliberately avoiding certain angles to not show place where the other characters are supposedly having their conversation. Using the back room just makes it much simpler.
|Jul 23 2008, 10:08 PM Post #47
Okay. Did Ava and John have sex? I thought I read that they have a steamy love session on the roof top, but all I saw was a little makeout session, then next scene, they are on John's couch. What da hell happened? That is John's second love scene that got nixed!
And so sad that they married Tony because Tony and Kate got some good flirting going on...that could have been a great triangle, especially if you add Roman and his sexing of Anna last year.
Happy that Kate does seem to be okay with Phillip dating Morgan...maybe she will leave them alone.
And Hope and her scrawny arms really need a cheeseburger.
I am not a fan of crying Morgan. I am sure both of the actors are so damn tired of the same scene for the past three weeks. I know I am.
|Jul 23 2008, 10:21 PM Post #48
|Abe and Lexie actually said that they couldn't afford to pay for Theo's therapy? Bullshit they can't! Lexie's a doctor, for Christ's sakes! Add that to Abe's salary, and they most certainly can afford it! Stop trying to tell your own life story, Dena, because nobody's interested!
|Jul 23 2008, 10:28 PM Post #49
Weds epi....
Loved the Tony, Kate and Anna scenes - I kind of liked the John and Tony scene
Phillip and Morgan and the whole dead dad thing - Big Yawn!
Ava and EJ sporting some chemistry - I think they just wanted to hug/hold each other - but that would be inappropriate!
Hope sporting some something something - it must have been cold at the Bo Brady House!

First, Sindacco, that little bug running around your signature had me thinking I had something on my screen! LoL I came thisclose to slapping the screen.
Anyway, I watched Days today for the first time in weeks and I was thoroughly, THOROUGHLY bored.

Welcome to the club.
|Jul 23 2008, 10:41 PM Post #52
I'm with ya, cj...I also thought EJ and Ava were sparking for a second there...is there anyone he doesn't do that with?
And Kenny, you picked a bad day to watch. It has EJ, Phillip, Tony, John - my faves - and even I dozed off a bit there.
There's always tomorrow...that seems to be my Days mantra!
PS-was there any reason that Anna needed to talk about Carrie so much? Could we only hope that she would come back with Muldoon? Probably not much of a story there, huh?
|Jul 23 2008, 10:42 PM Post #53
The best thing about weds show... Max, Stephanie, Lucas, Sami, Chloe, Chelsea and Daniel weren't on it! And if they were on they were soooooo boring I blocked them out!
I did love it when Anna mentioned to Kate "look on the bright side only one of your children is in prision".

I thought today was pretty good.
I enjoyed the Tony/Kate scenes and especially the Anna/Kate scenes. I like how the tension between them was noted and how they seemed to come to an understanding by the end of the episode. I like them as rivals but they could rock as friends too. Good to see Tanna back in action. I also like how Kate has been drawn into the action and it was nice hearing about how her company is doing. At least it wasn't dropped. Loved hearing an update on Carrie. I like little things like that and I love hearing about past Salemites. LeAnn looked great today, especially in the scenes outside the Pub. Loved the touch of Anna telling Kate the cops were dragging the river. I like touches like that which add to the community feel.
I enjoyed John/Tony too and I liked that they flashed back to Tony and John's conversation from months ago just to remind people it wasn't out of place. Enjoyed the John/Ava scenes. I wasn't expecting to see the love scene. Days knew J&M fans would be pissed so you could say they learned their lesson from the 2005 sexcapades that had Marlena/Roman and John/Kate having sex. Days didn't want too much backlash LOL. J&M fans should take heart in this. If the John/Ava scene aired while the J&M sex scene didn't, there would've been hell to pay so at least they were fair LOL.
Ava/EJ did have some chemistry going on. Seems like we have the buildup to Ava's exit. God I will miss her. I felt horrible for her when she broke down at the end. Good scenes.
I didn't feel Philip/Morgan was repetitive. I liked her telling Philip about her father and recalling past memories. It made me feel for her. KR is handling this well and I like the buildup to Philip/Morgan. Good Bo/Philip scenes too. Loved Bo going off on Philip about how he feels played by Victor and how Philip has become a true Kiriakis. The ending we know won;t go nowhere but I do appreciate that Higley is giving us more cliffhangers.
KA is starting to look way too gaunt again and that outfit was not flattering. Her arms looked the worst they've been in a long time and she was showing a little something else too (those that watched know what I mean). I do like how Bo and Hope have some good conflict now.
I also want to say Clem Egan, who wrote today and I believe wrote an episode a few weeks ago, is doing a nice job. He wrote scripts for Passions but he seems solid on Days. His stuff is quite lively IMO. I also noticed Victor G. wrote yesterday's script and it was pretty good too, which isn't surprising considering he seems to know the characters. He proved that writing during the strike.
I look forward to the next two episodes, which should be solid.

|I'm guessing we got a little bit of nip action out of Kristian today? Hell, that was probably the most entertaining part of the episode.
|Jul 23 2008, 10:56 PM Post #56
Yeah. I was trying to dance around the subject because I'm used to not coming out and just saying something like that. Yeah. What she was wearing not only exposed her gaunt arms but you could see right through it and she didn't seem to be covered all too well.
|Jul 23 2008, 11:00 PM Post #57
LOL see Phoenix, either you are rubbing off on me or I had a relapse cause I did enjoy today's show. I'm not calling it RIVETING but it's an improvement over what we've been watching *cough*Chan*cough*.
|Jul 23 2008, 11:13 PM Post #58
^Oh, no way was it riveting. I haven't seen anything riveting in a long time.
I am one who just enjoys something happening each day and character interactions. I guess I just have simple taste. Either that or after nearly a decade of soaps declining in quality, I've lowered my expectations so much that I find enjoyment in almost anything LOL.
|Jul 24 2008, 02:15 AM Post #59
Get Clem Egan away from the madman known as Reilly and he can actually write, whaddya know? lol
I think he's got some promise on Days with the scripts. They're not exactly riveting, but he knows how to do certain scenes well.

Winter Window Cleaner
Though temperatures may be dropping, windows still need to be cleaned. At normal temperatures, two tablespoons of rubbing alcohol mixed into 16 ounces of of warm water definitely will do the trick. However, your window cleaner will need to be "souped up" to work well in cold climates. The secret formula we use when temperatures drop is easy to prepare. Just add a teaspoon of corn starch. That's right! When combined, two tablespoons of rubbing alcohol, a teaspoon of cornstarch and 16 ounces of warm water make a super "winter window cleaner". And that's the On The House tip for today.

A Kailua business owner who police say used a high pressure water hose to spray down protesters last July was found guilty Monday of four counts of criminal harassment.
Bob Twogood was accused of hosing down a group of Kailua resident who were protesting outside of his business.
The group was pushing for a ban on commercial activity at Kailua Beach, which Twogood says would negatively affect his kayak rental business as well as the business of others in the area.
Twogood faces 50 hours of community service.

Steve Howe has always loved basketball.
From the time he was a child, he always had a spot on the sideline of Grant County High School basketball games.
"When I was small, my dad (Carl) kept the clock for Grant County High School," he said. "I used to sit in his lap and I was a part of the basketball program when I was very small. It was a dream to get to play for Grant County."
The Grant County girls' basketball team hoped that the momentum from the Forcht Bank/Dry Ridge Toyota Invitational, their home tournament, would carry over into the new year.
The Lady Braves won three of their four games, finishing second for the second straight season. They followed with three losses in the KSA Classic in Orlando, Fla., but returned to Kentucky with a win against Bellevue on Jan. 2.
Going with their momentum, the Lady Braves earned a district win over cross county rival Williamstown, coming away with a 42-32 win on Jan. 4.
Freezing temperatures and a downpour of snow and sleet can lead to a recipe for disaster on the roadways.
With meteorologists forecasting 3 to 6 inches of snow to hit northern Kentucky on Jan. 7, motorists need to be cautious.
Children may get out of school to make snowmen and sled down icy hills, but not everyone can stay home because of inclement weather.
Despite some people's beliefs, even if a snow emergency is declared by Grant County Judge-Executive Darrell Link, residents are not necessarily forbidden to go to work.
Dry Ridge City Council is back to six members again.
The council had a vacancy after Jason O'Nan resigned in November for personal reasons.
Judy Curry, a retired social worker who was married to former Dry Ridge mayor Donald Pat Curry, was selected unanimously by the council to fill the position during its Jan. 4 meeting.
She will serve the remainder of the year, but can run for a full term in the November election.
A Williamstown school teacher is the winner of Forcht Bank's statewide "Pay My Bills" sweepstakes.
Vicke Crowder, a special education teacher and school bus driver for Williamstown Schools, was presented a check for $2,500 at Forcht Bank in Williamstown on Dec. 31.
Crowder, a single-mother of two, was eligible for the contest by signing up for online banking and paying her bills at forchtbank.com. The contest was open to non customers, as well as customers, who paid their bills with Forcht Bank's online service.
The new year brings good news for Corinth's Marathon Drive sewer expansion project. Bid opening will be held on at 2 p.m. Jan. 21 at the Corinth City Building.
Mayor Billy Hill said 90 days from the time of the bid awarding the successful bidding company will be able to begin the expansion.
"There are still some easements outstanding, though the city has a blanket easement in place," Hill said
Ron Kinmon is passionate about basketball and teaching.
As the principal at Eagle Creek Learning Center and head boys' basketball coach at Grant County High School, Kinmon looked to have an impact on student's lives.
Now, he'll look to have an impact in a different capacity after being named the new Director of Operations for the Grant County school district. Kinmon replaces Mark Hudson, who retired after 28 years in education.
Forcht Bank will be closing the Corinth and North Main branches on March 31, 2010.
Customers who opened accounts at either of the locations were notified last week via a letter.
The reason for the branch closings were "due to changing customer patterns and low overall usage," the letter read.
"I hate it and think they are making a big mistake," said Corinth Mayor Billy Hill. "I think not only did Grant County depend on and use that bank but so did people from Scott and Owen counties."

Grant County Sheriff's Office
Deputy Kevin Burke executed a warrant for Virgil O. McKinney, 54, of Williamstown at 10:35 p.m. Dec. 26. McKinney was lodged in the Grant County Detention Center.

Wow, 285$ for this, you can get a heck of a lot better. Take a look at Limestone Networks. They've reduced their prices a lot recently.

You should be able to do it easily. But you can get there faster offering 5GB plan rather than a 1 GB plan. (Your sites will average much less than 1GB size)

Just on the basis that you are planning to oversell your disk by half I would say not at all.
Also the specs for that price are pretty high, you can find better.█ hostingcove.com | Tennessee Based Hosting Provider.

OP, go with boxes with less customers per server. Or you are going to find out the hard way that restoring 1000-1500 accounts on a single server after a raid failure or hack is the most stressful and expensive thing you are going to deal with.

Anytime your trying to figure out how many clients you can put on a single server it's just a "Best Guess".
It is totally dependent on the type of websites that will bee hosted like static or dynamic. The number of hits the sites get. The list goes on and on.
IMO it's always best to provide good equipment then NEVER overcrowd the server else your business will suffer greatly, especially in these days when hosting is so cheap and the companies that overcrowd their servers are fast being found out.
Keep a eye on your server resources and be sure that it doesn't reach a capacity where your clients sites don't run at full speed.Shared and Reseller hosting on high speed uncrowded servers at Glitter Hosting Services - Super server leasing deals, VPS, High End Reseller accounts at OverVolt.com and Glitter Hosting VPS.
1 million clients, minimum.
we cannot answer your question. it all depends on the individual site types, scripts, and traffic for each customer's sites.EasyDCIM.com - DataCenter Infrastructure Management - HELLO DEDICATED SERVER & COLO PROVIDERS! - Reach Me: [email protected]

From my experience, I would NOT put 1000 clients on that server, or rather, ANY server. I would advise you to slowly build your client base on your server. Perhaps add enough clients on there and then cut the server off from new clients and move new registrations to a newer server.
Once you are able to determine how stable server #1 is, you can slowly add more clients on there. Remember, the more clients you have on the server, the more stress the server has and the more stress you have in case of a server failure. So keep everything balanced. Don't oversell, and don't overwork your server(s). You can continue to add clients and monitor your clients/server. If some problems rise up, that should tell you something about the server and it's capacity.█ HJI Technologies, LLC - A New Uncompromising Experience, Since 2014

We are running over 400 customers on our server but need more staff to handle enquires at this moment.
It all depends on the size of the server and location of customers.

If it's a shared server, it's also a good idea to stick in a big SATA drive and mount it purely for backups, makes for a much faster restore in case of primary drive failure! That doesn't negate the need for offsite too though obviously.█ Twikam

Despite what the folks in Hollywood think, some books should just remain books. But certain adaptations of children's stories help to renew our enthusiasm for forgotten or overlooked titles. Most recently, Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr. Fox was brought to the big screen by Wes Anderson. Using exceedingly vivid stop-motion animation, Anderson rewrote the classic for adults with Noah Baumbauch.
The film works so well because it focuses on childlike themes of the story, such as sibling rivalry, while incorporating very adult elements such as poverty and emotional failings laced with self-effacing humor. Below is a list of five children's books that would also make a successful jump to film with a newfound adult perspective.
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst: This story features a series of events in which Alexander gets screwed over at every turn by his brothers, classmates, and lima beans. From an adult's perspective, it would undoubtedly be interesting to reminisce on the trivialities that drive Alexander mad. Everybody knows what it feels like to have a bad day, but what if you couldn't even tie your own shoes? Bring in Woody Allen to direct.
The Very Hunger Caterpillar by Eric Carle: Sure there are only 225 actual words in this visual classic, but look what they did with Where the Wild Things Are (338 words). There are a number of different directions that could be taken with this one, but a visceral story put in the hands of a director like Michel Gondry could be both a feast for the eyes and a dark allegory for gluttony.
Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown: Who knew that Goodnight Moon was the story of an obsessive compulsive boy who has to say goodnight to every trifling object in his entire bedroom? In 3D, of course, so you can actually reach out and say goodnight, too. (If 3D is what you're into, anyway.)
Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle by Betty MacDonald: A charming lady lives in an upside down house and uses a magical treasure chest of cures –bequeathed by her pirate husband – to rid the neighborhood children of their bad habits. This isn't already a Hollywood movie? If Garfield can get made, then they can do Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle.
Frog and Toad by Arnold Lobel: The poignant, sometimes existential, exploits of Frog and his friend Toad, two dapper amphibians wearing blazers, are the perfect characters for a dry and witty take on par with Fantastic Mr. Fox. Let indie darling David O. Russell direct and have the chance to revive his struggling career in the same way that Wes Anderson did.

Like many children of the '70s, Mindy Greenberg grew up with pink hearts, yellow moons, orange stars and green clovers.
"Our pantry was full of beautiful colors — sugar cereal, Pop-Tarts and Cheetos," she said.
Beyond the plethora of processed foods, the family had a grapefruit tree in the yard, from which they'd pluck part of their breakfast. That tree planted the seeds that salvaged Greenberg's health when, 20 years later as a mom of three children, she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Popping pills to combat the aches and malaise, she still felt sluggish.
"I had a vicious inflammation process going on in my body," she said.

26th of April 2012 – Freshùu and Gimmie announce a multi-game partnership through which Freshùu will be able to offer real-life rewards, such as free physical goods and gift coupons, for achievements earned in all games it publishes, by relying on the recently unveiled Gimmie network. The first app to propose the service to gamers is none other than critically acclaimed ZiGGURAT. Gimmie has been switched on in ZiGGURAT through a free update available in the AppStore as of last night. ZiGGURAT players receive push notifications whenever they earn Gimmie points. They can then head to the Gimmie Store to redeem them and collect gifts, from either the settings page or the game over scream screen.
[ http://www.freshuu.com/appstore/ziggurat/gim]
From now on, it pays to be The Last Human on Earth. Those bravely surviving the End of the Universe for slightly longer than everybody else will earn themselves socks and underwear from ManPacks, luxury headphones by Fanny Wang, mens luxury bags and backpacks by KillSpencer, set-up boxes by PopCornHour and oh so much more.
"There are two things editors and critics agree upon when it comes to ZiGGURAT: one, it is excellent; and two, it is tough as nails. I couldn't think of a better fit to introduce the Gimmie service to the gaming community. You really have to break a sweat to unlock these achievements – Which means you'll actually deserve the rewards you'll earn", stated Pascal Clarysse, chief creative at Freshùu.
"ZiGGURAT is definitely a gamer's game, so we're looking forward to hear what the hardcorest of the hardcore community have to say about our Gimmie platform", added Gimmie CEO, David Ng.
[ http://www.freshuu.com/appstore/ziggurat/gim]
ZiGGURAT is a novel survival shooter with unique gameplay mechanics. It places you, The Last Human On Earth, atop the tallest ziggurat on the planet, resisting the endless onslaught of alien freaks who killed everybody else, and who will, eventually, kill you too.
ZiGGURAT has been developed in Emeryville, CA, by Action Button Button Entertainment. It was created, directed and designed by Tim Rogers, programmed by Michael Kerwin, with art direction by Brent Porter and soundtrack by Andrew Toups. It has hit the AppStore on February 17th of 2012.
ZiGGURAT has garnered worldwide critical acclaim, getting featured by Apple, OpenFeint and TIME magazine among others. It obtained the first 9/10 for a mobile game in the history of iconic EDGE magazine.

The Gimmie mission is to provide a platform to enable a complementary revenue boost for developers and a more cost effective way to acquire customers on mobile for brands. Gimmie was founded late 2011 in San Francisco by Roy Liu, lead developer on PvZ for PopCap, and David Ng, formerly of ChinaCache. The team is passionate about gaming, shopping and apps.
Founded by Lik Sang driving force Pascal Clarysse, along with entrepreneur extraordinaire Paul Chen (Bleem, NubyTech, Bleem) and industry veteran Bernie Stolar (Atari, Mattel, Sony, SEGA), Freshùu brings over a century of combined industry expertise in gaming, hardware design, and Internet with market leaders and pioneering start-ups.
Members of the team have participated in designing and launching a wide range of diverse gaming products, such as Guitar Hero, Atari VCS, Sony Playstation, SEGA Dreamcast, Resident Evil Chainsaw Controller, Street Fighter Anniversary Stick, Bleemcast! or Smartjoy FRAG.

A comet discovered by and named for a University of Hawaii telescope two years ago will be visible in the Northern Hemisphere beginning Thursday. And now, there's new evidence that this may be where life on Earth began.
A new study just out from chemists at UH Manoa and the University of California, Berkeley, reveals that the foundation of life could have been created on comets then carried to Earth.
UH chemistry professor Ralk Kaiser and his local research partner Seol Kim used a machine to simulates a comet -- its chemical makeup and temperature, along with the vacuum in space.
To imitate cosmic rays in space, Kaiser and Kim zapped the chemicals with high-energy electrons. Tests were also done by three other researchers in Berkeley.
The reaction formed complex compounds, specifically dipeptides.
"Dipeptides are building blocks of protopeptides and also of enzymes and enzymes are very important organic and bio molecules in life as we know it on our own planet," Kaiser said.
This discovery means that it's possible that a comet or asteroid brought these molecules to Earth. Or even to other planets.
"So there is also a chance if these comets impacted on earth-like planets, they might have delivered the prerequisite for life as we know it also to other planets," said Kaiser.
But Kaiser says there is more research to be done, because comets and asteroids impact Earth at a very high rate of speed, "So we have to find out, can the dipeptides really survive and how many percent of the dipeptides can survive?"
As far as that visible comet, it's called Pan-STARRS. Look for it in the west, just to the left of the point on the horizon where the sun sets, shortly after sundown. Best viewing days should be Sunday through Wednesday.

I proved myself and earned a year-long placement
Laura Freedman
Laura Freedman participated in the TrainE-TraidE placement scheme last summer:
"As a first year I didn't really know what I wanted to do or how to get into different placements.
"TrainE-TraidE were great in introducing me to the contacts, helping me to put a CV together and giving really good advice on workplace skills. They found me a three-month placement as a business development assistant at the Redbus Media Group.
"I worked on lots of different projects at the company, as well as assisting the chief executive.
"My favourite task was giving a presentation to the sales team on student life and overall student purchasing trends. At first it was daunting, presenting my ideas to a team of professionals and answering questions on the spot, however, I learnt a lot doing this.
"All work experience is good experience and if you do your best to maximise the internship, it can act as a springboard for future opportunities. Initially when I applied I was hoping to make contacts and get some industry exposure over the summer.
"At the end of my placement, the chief executive offered me the chance to come back for my placement year, which is a huge step in my career development, and one that I am really looking forward to."

Bayer 04 Leverkusen have bolstered their attacking options with the signing of 18-year-old Poland striker Arkadiusz Milik from Górnik Zabrze on a contract which runs until summer 2018.
Leverkusen have paid a fee believed to be in the region of €3.5m for the forward, who has made three appearances for Poland following his debut in a friendly against South Africa on 12 October. Milik watched from the stands on Saturday as his new club beat Hamburger SV 3-0 in their final Bundesliga game before the winter break.
"This match confirmed that I have made the right choice," said Milik, who will join his team-mates for a training camp in Portugal at the beginning of January. "It was a great experience, the performance on the pitch was outstanding and the atmosphere in the stadium fantastic."
Sporting director Rudi Völler also expressed his delight at the Werkself's latest acquisition, saying: "In Poland, Arkadiusz Milik is seen as probably the biggest talent right now. He has already played for the Polish national team at the age of 18. Our coaching team of Sascha Lewandowski and Sami Hyypiä will continue to develop him step by step."
Leverkusen will discover their UEFA Europa League round of 32 opponents when the draw is made on Thursday.

Fairy gardens bring a bit of magic to yard
Trees no taller than hairbrushes, penny-size steppingstones, twig ladders, gazing balls made from marbles, mini wheelbarrows and glittery little frogs. Such is the stuff of a fairy garden.
"I think we all need to be a kid now and then and pretend there are fairies," Gail Gibbons of Redding said last weekend while transforming a terra-cotta pot into a wee, whimsical world at Wild Thyme Gifts & Gardens. She quickly added, "I shouldn't have said 'pretend.' "
Her friend Terry Aquino of Cottonwood wasn't buying into the fairy angle at Wild Thyme's first-ever fairy garden class, but was enjoying creating a miniature garden with tiny plastic toadstools, little copper watering cans, a small birdbath and succulents as small-scale shrubbery. "I am not all that into fairies, but I am into cute," she said.
She'd come to the right place. Adorability was in abundance at the downtown Redding store. Twelve participants in the Saturday class filled containers with potting soil, and then made little paths, planted little trees, built little patios and plunked down little figurines.
"These are so cute!" was said more than once.
Wild Thyme owner Eileen Barry had a waiting list of 60 for the class, and plans to offer more.
"I cannot believe the reaction," she said.
Barry's store is stocked with wheelbarrows, birdbaths, gourd houses, ponds, dragonflies and other small-scale decorations specifically designed for fairy gardens. Some items sell for a dollar or two; others have a price tag of $30 or more. The fascination with fairies has been going on for centuries, but there's been a recent surge of interest in creating little places with plants and furnishings that might appeal to the garden sprites.
Barry made a container fairy garden as a demonstration for her store. Both children and adults are fascinated by it, she said.
"Everyone just lights up when they see it," she said.
With adults, the gardens seem to tap into their inner child, she said.
"I never played with doll houses, but I'm making up for it," Barry added.
Participants in the fairy garden class used a variety of plants and embellishments to create and personalize their miniature gardens.
"It's a chance to use my imagination. To be creative," Deonn Woods said.
"I'm having a blast," said Sue Ford of Phoenix, Ariz. She said her garden would be the front-seat passenger on the return trip to Phoenix. Ford often visits family in Redding and signed up for the class because she's a fan of Wild Thyme, noting that she appreciates Barry's "good, happy energy."
Jan Carter's terra-cotta-pot garden was a warm-up for the fairy garden she wants to build in an antique wheelbarrow at her Redding home for four granddaughters, ages 2 to 5.
"They'll have a hands-on little garden they can manipulate and play with … and it will be cute."
Believing in fairies is not a requirement for fairy gardening. The real magic is in being able to step away from the real world.
"It's whimsical, magical, playful," said class participant Johanne White of Redding. "And sometimes we forget about those things."
White turned an old birdcage into a fairy garden, placing moss in the bottom and adding tiny plants and accents. She positioned a little fairy doll on the swinging bird perch.
"I like that you can garden on a small scale," White said. "Sometimes I think in life things look really big. I think we want a project we can do."

Up-to-date overview of the standardised air interface
The use of mobile communication devices has grown phenomenally throughout the world during the last few years. With strong consumer demand to increase data delivery (large emails, browsing the Internet on wireless devices, transferring video images, etc.), engineers are faced with the challenge of enhancing CDMA to provide larger data capabilities while improving voice signals for clearer reception.
In November 2001 the U.S. Federal Communications Commission released a much broader band of frequencies to wireless service providers, which will speed up the development of these systems.

We all know of baseball's greatest players of all time, as well as the fan favorites. The best stories in baseball come not from these players necessarily, but from success stories.
The players who have had to overcome odds, fight back in the face of adversity and became successful in spite of the obstacles. Jackie Robinson had to fight through the color barrier and break that down, while others had their own odds to overcome.
Here is the greatest success story of each major league franchise. I tried to pick out historical players where I could, though many are rather recent.

Model Number:
Who said toe socks can't be performance socks? Injinji Performance Lightweight Mini-Crew Toesocks are thin, lightweight and breathable for performance or those who prefer the feeling of a minimalist sock.
Comments: These are perfect for use with Vibram FiveFingers. Very thin and form-fitting. They are smaller than regular Injinji socks, but designed to stretch - comfortably - to fit perfectly. And, with less material between the toes, they work well in regular running shoes to - no crowding. They seem a bit flimsier than regular Injinjis, but they've held up well for me over the past 4 months - including the pair that I wore (blister free!) throughout my last 100-mile race.

Formula's for question (iii) as well would be appreciated.
Thanks again
The question reads:
With respect to the origin O, the points A,B,C,D have position vectors given by
OA = 4i + k, OB = 5i - 2j - 2k, OC = i + j, OD = -i -4k
(i) Calculate the acute angle between the lines AB and CD
Completed this, answer is theta = 99.03degrees
(ii) Prove that the lines AB and CD intersect
(iii) The point P has position vector i + 5j + 6k. Show that the perpendicular distance from P to the line AB is equal to sqrt3
(I can solve this one)
(ii) Prove that the lines AB and CD intersect
Please could someone help me with a formula here?
Thank you kindly
Thank you
I feel silly asking but could you explain this:
Line 1: x x0 u1t = + , y y0 u2t = + , z z0 u3t = + ,
where (x0 , y0 , z0 ) is a point on line 1 and (u1 , u2 , u3 ) is a vector in the direction of line 1.
x,y,z would be your (x,y,z) vector right? Why does it say point, and where does u fit in? :S
If you're referring to the first few lines of the attachment, the only reference to a point is where the general form of the parametric equations of the two lines is given.
Are you familiar with finding the parametric equations of a line if you know a point on the line and a vector in the direction of the line?
Not at all.
I know a . b = 0 for a perpendicular line, but there are no parametric equations in my book :/
When I work out a . b it doesn't equal 0, which is why I'm stuck lol. I think maybe I'm doing something wrong.
I went through the pdf you posted, it all makes sense except for this:
Line 1: x x0 u1t = + , y y0 u2t = + , z z0 u3t = + ,
where (x0 , y0 , z0 ) is a point on line 1 and (u1 , u2 , u3 ) is a vector in the direction of line 1.
Line 2: x = x'0 +v1s , y = y'0 +v2 s , z = z'0 +v3s ,
where (x'0 , y'0 , z'0 ) is a point on line 2 and (v1, v2 , v3 ) is a vector in the direction of line 2.
I dont understand what substitutions to make
Thank you
It works out right for the 2nd question though :S
(i) OA + OB = AB = 9i -k - 2j
(9, -2, -1)
OC + OD = j - 4k
(0, 1, 4)
|AB| = sqrt86
|CD| = sqrt17
|a||b|cos theta = a1b1 + a2b2 + a3b3
a.b = -6
theta = -6/sqrt86sqrt17
therefore theta = 99,03degrees
-headdesks repeatedly-
I was doing it the wrong way >.<
New answer = 45,585degrees

Today the cognitive behavioral approach has become increasingly popular as a form of therapy for many individuals (Phares, pg. 252). The main idea of the cognitive behavioral perspective is that an individual's cognition and thought plays a vital role in that person's behavior. The cognitive behavioral theory can be applied to traffic in terms of rationalizing and understanding one's driving behavior.
First, several methods can be used to discover a driver's cognition. In 1976, Schwartz and Gottman developed a 34-item questionnaire called the Assertiveness Self-Statement Test (ASST). Through the use of the ASST, people could become more aware of and understand why they might drive the way they do. For example, a positive self-statement of the ASST could be: "I was thinking that I am perfectly free to drive the appropriate speed that is safe for me and others around me; I was thinking that other drivers were going way to fast for me to keep up with them."
A negative self-statement would be: "I was worried about what the other drivers behind me would think of me if I did not keep up with the faster drivers up ahead; I was thinking that the other drivers might feel that I was in their way." With more similar statements as the two mentioned, it can become clearer about why drivers may behave the way they do.
Those who fall under the positive self-statement would be regarded as having a high degree of assertiveness. Assertive drivers are therefore drivers who have a sense of identity and who do not follow the convoys of other drivers. For instance, an assertive driver would remain at the speed limit that is appropriate and safe under the weather, road, and traffic conditions present at that time. On the other hand, drivers who fall under the negative self-statement are drivers who are simply followers who do not have enough strength to do what's right.
Cognitive behavioral therapy could be a positive method of reforming reckless drivers. Therapists might be able to help a reckless driver become a careful driver by teaching them to label situations more realistically. By labeling situations more realistically, drivers may realize the danger they are creating for themselves and for those around them.
In order for drivers to come to this realization, therapists might strike up an argument in attempt to get the driver to see the irrationality of his or her beliefs. Furthermore, drivers may be taught to stop and ask themselves why and what is causing the aggression and anger and if it is really worth the anxiety that's involved.
In addition to the cognitive aspect, drivers should be taught to find an alternative means of reacting to their anger that is more rational and less stressful to the driver. For example, instead of driving reckless to relieve the tension (which for me, would make me go more crazy) maybe they can stick in a favorite (CD or tape to calm their nerves.
In extreme cases, maybe the driver should even pull over on the side to overcome their anger and proceed traffic when they are certain they are ready. Therefore, the goal of a cognitive behavioral therapist in terms of of driving is to make drivers be able to confront their unreasonable thinking and to use common sense as to how to react in their situation.
I derived my topic through looking at several of my psychology texts. I decided to go with the cognitive behavioral approach because it was a concept I have yet written about. For this lab report, I was interested in relating the concept of thought to performance and behavior. I strongly believe that cognition along with performance is applicable to why drivers drive the way they do. Thus, it is the process of thought that produces one's performance let it be rational or not.

Jazzablanca Festival 2013: Casablanca, Morocco, March 30 - April 4, 2013
Casablanca, Morocco
March 30April 4,2013
A chronological scan through the list of artists who have played in jazzablanca Festival for the last seven years reveals a strong wish to improve and position the event as a leading jazz festival in Morocco, beside Tanjazz in Tangiers and jazz au Chellah in Rabat. Indeed, each year has been marked by the appearance of a great jazz figure: guitarist Al Di Meola, guitarist/vocalist Keziah Jones, pianist/singer Peter Cincotti, pianist Chick Corea and bassist Marcus Miller. However for its 8th annual edition, the new production team was able to assemble a strong lineup of highly distinguished stars: the retiring Dani Klein (Vaya Con Dios), rising singing star Melody Gardot, accomplished composer/pianist/arranger Chucho Valdes, klezmer jazz/funk band Abraham Inc, and avant-garde oudists Dhafer Youssef and Karim Kadiri (M'oud Swing).
Meanwhile, off events were programmed downtown in one hotel and five restaurants converted into jazz clubs, in addition to jazz workshops for young students organized at the FOL (Fédération des Oeuvres Laiques). The objective was to transform Casablanca into a booming centre for jazz during the days of the festival.
The main concerts took place in the Hippodrome (racecourse) of Anfa. Characterized mostly by green spaces and a beautiful view over Anfa's golf course, the Hippodrome offered a relief to the audience, alongside a VIP space, dedicated to cocktails and concert preludes.
On Friday evening, April 30, Melody Gardot opened the festival. The audience knew beforehand that you do not necessarily need to be a jazz specialist to like Gardot's music, and was rather ready for the show and the musical voyage upon which Gardot was about to take them. Starting in Brazil with "Mira," Gardot mashed up fast rhythm with Samba influences. Up to Capo Verde, she "kissed the sky for Cesaria Evora" with a rhythmic rendition of "Sodade," then northwest to Paris with "Les Etoiles," played essentially with Manouche style guitar strings. Still with guitar, but in a flamenco fashion, Gardot moved south to Spain with "So We Meet Again My Heartache," then back to Brazil, closing the concert with "Lemanja." Gardot encored with an intimate version of "Over the Rainbow," accompanied by Stephan Braun, who grappled his cello like a guitar to release some smooth sounds.
On the second day, another female voice reverberated throughout Anfa's complex: Dani Klein. At the age of 60, Klein is still heading Vaya Con Dios with the same heated passion, though she confessed that this world tour is the last before her retirement. Overbooked, the concert promised amazing feedback from the audience; and indeed dancing, clapping, and singing all throughout the concert was part of the show. Vaya Con Dios' songs were all classics along with which the audience was ready to sing along. "Johnny," "Puerto Rico," "Just a Friend of Mine," "Je T'aime, Je T'aime..." and the final tune, "Nah Neh Nah," for which Klein asked the audience "to go crazy" and which was considered, by general consensus, to be one of the biggest highlights of this year's festival.
April 1 was by far a different date for jazz aficionados. Singer/oudist Dhafer Youssef was expected to play and sing a worldly jazz, yet one which combined oriental sufi airs with rock beats. His bliss-manifesting voice offered the audience another perspective on avant-garde jazz, where ascending music accompanied by climatic solos sounded like a mystic voyage. Youssef played mostly titles from Abu Nawas Rhapsody (Jazzland, 2010), specifically "Les Ondes Orientales," "Sura," "Ode Suite Profane," and "Khamriyyat Abu Nawass." The audience couldn't help but applaud Youssef's songs through an unconditional frenzy, spurred by the electric and very harsh playing of the skilled musicians accompanying Youssef: drummer Chander Sardjoe, double bassist Phil Donkin, and pianist Kristjan Randalu. For the pleasure of the audience, Youssef encored with "Ode poetry" from the album Divine Shadows (Jazzland, 2006).

We build race cars, I hate rules that say you can have a nice cheap and cheerful LS7 but must run restrictors that would strangle a lawn mower. My only added rule would be,
You have X litres of fuel, use it anyway you like.
Other than the basic safety regulations it is all we need.We will then see an amazing variety of solutions.
BTW the 2 word validation is concocted by drunken Hobbits.
You are correct Stephen. Having worked for 20 years for a race team that was a power house in CART and Champ Car and then made the switch to IRL.(NHR) Throug the course of those years I have wathced crowds simply dissapear, and I believe that we have lost a whole generation of open wheel fans. From a mob scene at Road America to not racing there at all, that is what my father used to call a cryin shame. Thank God my sons grew up at the race track in the good days of open wheel racing in America. Knowing every driver up and down pit lane and asking them to sign a hat, or if they had a spare visor to part with. Those days will be missed and I do not think at this point in time that they are anywhere on the horizon. People say that if you do not learn from your past you are doomed to repeat it. I say lets all be doomed and bring back the past.
Nothing wrong with the 105% rule, which was actually IGNORED last May by IndyCar; they basically cut a deal with Lotus, basically guaranteeing the last two spots, to allow Dragon Racing to switch engines to something actually competitive. If those too-slow times weren't allowed in (and they were both under the minimum speed), then two slots would've remained open for whoever wanted to shoot for them. If the field is short because too many cars are just too damn slow, then stick to your guns and be like founder Carl Graham Fisher, in the Progressive Era of the 1910s.
The 105% rule was introduced to deal with the farce that was Milk & Donuts. Between the two, I'd easily take a legitimate 31-car field.
Hi Stephen
I have a variety of ex F1, Indy and LeMans cars in my collection. Can I bring them along?
I will need to change all body work to box shape to meet the non perpendicular rule but thats ok for sponsor signage.
Do I need to have all the tubs crash tested to current motorsport standards? I lost a few friends this year....
Can I run the ground effects car? Oh cool, be great to hear that fan running again....or maybe I will bring the tyrell out again, you remember her, the 6 wheeler, runs great on 10 inch tires.
You've only listed 3 lines of rules and yet you said 1 page...so if you wouldn't mind adding a few more lines just so I can bring these babies out again....without the without the safety negligence lawsuits.
Oh and one more thing, can we have a variety of fuels please.. Ive got an old Williams F1 car with active suspension, fly by wire everything....but it kinda needs heavy fuel, thanks Bud!
Another person that gets it. If it were to occur I would be on my way to Indy to get a car. I will join you in the garage area. Pass this along to the brain dead - brain trust at 16th & Georgetown. They need to wake up from their coma!!!
Until the H-G group releases it's momopolizing stranglehold on the actual Indy Car series, nothing will change, and a slow dying death will occur, if it hasn't already.
Amen Stephen long over due.
Hi Stephen, Having owned a racing series for a couple of years in Canada I fully agree with you. Let's get back to what racing is all about. Start out with "run what ya brung" and then let team inginutity , driver capability and parts reliability take over.
Basic rules for engine disp. / horsepower, tire size, brake dia. and overall wing. Yes, skinny tires can be a great equalizer...no more than 10" wide. will anyone listen??
