For the history buff who is not afraid of a bump in the night, a hidden gem in the heart of the South Florida Fairgrounds has a haunted mystery in store for you. By day, Yesteryear Village is a quaint replica of a turn-of-the-century Florida town. But by night, those same buildings that seem so chipper in the light of day have an eerie calm and stillness by moonlight, where the whispers of tenants long past linger.
Twenty historic buildings dot the 10-acre parcel of land. Some are replicas, while others are originals, saved from demolition, restored and moved to the fairgrounds to act as a link to South Florida's history. As most old buildings do, there is a story to each, some more PG-13 then others. For years, staff and tour members have spoke of mysterious happenings in the buildings—apparitions, chills and cold corridors, the sense of being watched—to the point that the Travel Channel's television show Ghost Adventures caught wind, and filmed an episode in the Riddle House. Their conclusion: Haunted.
Say what you may about these television shows, the media attention perked an interest in the community and tourists to the tune that Yesteryear Village now holds an "Evening in the Dark: A Ghostly Affair Walking Tour" of the premises each month, giving doubters and believers a chance to experience the haunted history. Scheduled for the first Friday of every month, the tour take guests through the town, highlighting certain buildings while giving an oral history of the people who once lived there. The tour highlights three historic buildings: The Riddle House, the Corbett Shack and the Pineapple Processing Plant. Since these buildings were relocated to the village, unexplained sounds and ghostly sightings have been the norm, and staff, volunteers and visitors all vouch for the mysterious activity.
The Riddle House is perhaps the tour's star, the onus of the Ghost Adventures crew in 2008, and one of the more peculiar stories. No stranger to death, the quaint three-story house was built in 1905 in downtown West Palm Beach. Known as the Gatekeeper's Cottage, it was first used as a funeral parlor and home of the Woodlawn Cemetery overseer—a job not only steeped in death but also protector of the deceased; grave robbing was quite common in the early 1900s.
The home eventually took on the Riddle name when Karl Riddle, West Palm Beach's first city manager and superintendent of public works, took up residence in the home in the 1920s. Legend has it that one of Riddle's workers committed suicide in the building—hung himself from a roof beam since removed—spurring what many believe to be the ongoing hauntings today.
The Corbett Shack, an old hunter's ramshackle moved from the JW Corbett Wildlife Management Area, was once a lone refuge in a wild, primordial landscape of western Palm Beach County. After the move to Yesteryear, long buried bodies were found at the shack's old location, with some believing their restless spirits moved with the building to its new village setup.
The third stop on the ghost tour is the old Pineapple Processing Plant. Once a bustling business in Martin County, it now holds relics from the Civil War and both Seminole Wars. Mysterious sounds and sights are often witnessed at the processing plant, most notably a clock that had stopped working at midnight years ago, was once found on the floor reading 3 a.m., the hour a soldier was murdered more than 100 years ago.
- Guides dress in period clothing, conveying the mysterious history of each building, from origin to ghostly encounters at Yesteryear Village. Admission is $18 per person. Tours run from 8-10 p.m. 2015's remaining schedule is as follows: November 6, and December 4. Space is limited and reservations are required. Click here to RSVP.

I really regret not getting mine in two halves. It is a pain in the ass lugging my 16X16X1/2 in the oven.
The easiest way to remove mill scale is by soaking your plate in Muriatic Acid, available at your local giant hardware store. You can use just about any plastic bin to soak. Use rubber gloves when handling. Soak it outdoors and in a clear area, 30 minutes should be enough, make sure to soak on both sides. When you're done soaking, neutralize the acid with sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and pour down the drain.Once done, rinse with water and dry. Clean off any rapidly forming rust with vinegar on a cloth then coat your steel in oil. http://sherylcanter.com/wordpress/2010/01/a-science-based-technique-for-seasoning-cast-iron/ suggests that flaxseed oil is best, because it is high in Alpha Linoleic Acid. Take a look at the wikipedia page for ALA and you'll see that chia oil is even higher in ALA than flaxseed, which is why I chose it to season my steel. My steel became black after 2 coats of chia seasoning. I believe the darker color should also improve the cooking experience, a la dark pans vs. light pans.
Do you use a broiler pbs? Steel is only better if you incorporate use of the broiler so you can get to 4 minutes. Me personally, I prefer 5-6 minutes but that's another discussion.I use 2nd rack and broiler the entire time. I could get to 4 minutes if put the steel on the top shelf, but I'm happy with my setup as it is.
So how do you recommend: Max oven temp 550* for 1 hour, Then after launch blast on the Broiler? My steel is on the oven floor
Move the steel to the top rack, or second from top rack (depending on broiler strength). Steel does not belong on the bottom, your top will never finish at the same time as your bottom which is the goal.My broiler is weak, so I can broil for 4-6 minutes and not over cook the top. Your results may vary.
Oh dear my back my poor back..
Mary Ann,Thanks for your comments. Very much appreciated. Glad that your oven racks are holding up.Others,Oven racks bending or not bending with 1/2" plates? Thanks again.
No issues using a, 18" x 20"x 1/2" slab. As Scott123 has said in the past, keep in mind that an oven rack should easily hold a thanksgiving turkey & then-some
Thanks for everyone's help. In the process of trying to find steel plates locally. Unfortunately, our oven depth will only allow 16" plates (front to back). Going to get two 8" x 18" plates with 1/2" bars as Mary Ann advised.Mary Ann:We are entertaining this weekend. Company is making Chicago style pizza. Thought about trying to make garlic knots as an appetizer. Looked back through this thread and saw your photo. They looked amazing! Do you happen to have a recipe link?Thanks againChad

Jestila's Houghton trial delayed
MARQUETTE – The Houghton trial of a former Marquette business owner has been postponed.
Houghton's Michael Jestila, in court on drug offenses, is now slated to stand trial in Houghton County Circuit Court beginning April 15.
The 47-year-old Jestila, former owner of Backroom Multi-Entertainment in Houghton, is charged with possession of 50 to 449 grams of cocaine, heroin or other narcotics, a 20-year felony.
According to the Houghton Daily Mining Gazette, Jestila's lawyer David Gemignani said Friday that he needed the additional time to review the complicated issues related to the case.
Gemignani also filed a request for the original search warrant used in the 2011 sweep of Jestila's store.
During that search, police seized dozens of packets of materials that they say tested positive for chemicals commonly found in bath salts, as well as hallucinogenic mushrooms. A scheduling conference is set for Jan. 20.
Jestila's former lawyer Timothy Quinnell withdrew from the case in December.
In April of 2012, Jestila reached a plea deal with Marquette County authorities that banned him from ever again doing business in the county.
Under the agreement, a criminal charge, a nuisance complaint and a pair of forfeiture actions against Jestila were dropped. In exchange, Jestila's Marquette store, Backroom Obsessions, was closed and Jestila is prevented from ever again operating a retail business in the county. Additionally, a $20,000 bond he paid to the Marquette City Police Department was forfeited.
During a December of 2011 search of the Marquette store, police seized about 1,000 items, including numerous packets of suspected controlled substances. A chemical analysis of the substances identified them as JWH-250 and pyrovalerone. Both are Schedule I controlled substances.
Jestila was charged with one count of unlawful delivery and manufacture of JWH-250, a seven-year felony. JWH-250 is a common ingredient in synthetic marijuana.
Kyle Whitney can be reached at 906-228-2500, ext. 250.

Urn Returned To Pomfret Woman
POMFRET – After nearly a year, a Pomfret woman has her husband's ashes back.
The Chautauqua County Sheriff's Office reported Friday morning that an urn, which was reported stolen April 4 from a residence on Van Buren Road, has been returned to its rightful owner.
On Thursday morning, the woman went outside to walk her dogs and located the urn in a bag on her porch. It is believed the person who took the urn thought it was a piece of art. The item was intact with only a small chip in the bottom and a few scratches on the side. An identification specialist was sent to check the urn for DNA and/or fingerprints.
Sheriff's officials are unsure if the thief was uncomfortable showing the urn as art or if their conscience got to them.
In April, the victim was not interested in pressing charges against anyone who may have taken the urn. She was said to be very distraught and just wanted the item returned.
In a release Friday, the officials said they are just happy that the victim has recovered her husband's ashes.

Bargain Price for 100 Shades
Posted by lillysbeautyspot on Jun 26, 2013
As I've mentioned in another one of my reviews, I have really been pleasantly surprised by the E.L.F. range of cosmetics and makeup tools; they are a great alternative to higher branded items and are great for makeup lovers who do not want to fork out a whole heap of money. This is a great set of shadows for if you are just starting out with makeup as it will allow you to get an idea of what shadow shades suit you before you go out and purchase higher end shadows/palettes. This palette has a great range of shades that will allow you to create a ton of eye looks. I will definitely be purchasing again.
great palette
Posted by melsie on May 10, 2013
Great palette. Lots of colors to choose from and they are well pigmented. They stay on for a pretty long time, too. A good palette for someone who wants to experiment with different colors.
I like it

La palette est super grande. Beaucoup de variété dans les couleurs. Pas cher. J'ai tout de même trouvé que les couleurs n'étaient pas aussi éclatantes que sur la photo. Par contre la composition n'est pas top top (contient des paraben et autres produits cracra) mais pour le prix il fallait s'y attendre

The best St. John product for good mood
Posted by headman78 on Sep 10, 2013
Tried them all and this is the only one that really works.
great product
Posted by Reviewer1471868 on Jan 02, 2014
This is the best st John's wort. I've tried lots that didn't work but this one did and still does. Periodically I take breaks from it and end up going back on it. I sleep amazing on it, less anxiety and helps depression immensely. If you are going to try st John's wort I recommend this one, there are side effects such as sensitivity to the sun so wear your sunscreen also interferes with other medications so make sure you read the warnings
So far, so good
Posted by 5512415157988739335 on Aug 19, 2014
I trust the New Chapter brand, as their Cordyceps has been superior. I also am taking Holy Basil, which calmed down my morning blood sugar spikes. I'm trying the St. John's wort for flare ups of depression - I think it's helping. But when I added the Holy Basil I got more relief from the depression episodes.

More than almost any other German chef, Harald Rüssel has made regionality his maxim and developed his own interpretation of 'nouvelle German cuisine'.
Ruth and Harald Rüssel have been at Landhaus St. Urban in a quiet side valley of the Middle Moselle for 20 years. At the outset, Harald Rüssel realised that the produce from local farmers, butchers, bakers and anglers was an undiscovered treasure trove, and over the years he built up partnerships to support them. Rüssel is a rare example of a chef serving exclusively regional or German food, even in his gourmet restaurant, except for the sea fish which comes from France. Both classic and modern techniques are employed in transforming these precious ingredients into light, contemporary, transparent creations. Rüssel uses his plates to represent the idea of 'terroir', which is deeply rooted in his overall philosophy and reflected in his use of regional materials in the Landhaus decor.
With his gently poached brook trout with smashed sweet potato, chive broth and pig's chin , a tantalising contrast arises from the rusticality of the chive broth in combination with the wonderful salmony flavours of the trout. Nothing could be more fitting for the region, with the pig's chin adding to the culinary complexity. Rüssel's game specialities are locally hunted, for instance his splendid small wild boar with preserved pumpkin, beetroot and lamb's lettuce, or saddle of venison served with a small dumpling with hock ragout, hock jus with clove and a hint of lemon, which cries out for a German red wine. Rüssel has succeeded in putting German regional cuisine on the podium. This is what Germany tastes like right at the very top!

Now that autumn has officially arrived, pet health experts say it's important for pet owners to consider some potential dangers of the season.
While the cooler weather may drive many pet owners outdoors more often with their furry friends, it may also cause rodents, such as mice, to go indoors. According to the ASPCA, the use of rodenticides increases during the fall as humans try to keep these pests out of their homes. If you use these products, it's important to remember to be extremely careful with them and put them in locations where they cannot be accessed by your pet.
Fleas and ticks on dogs and cats may also be a problem for some pet owners this time of year. According to VCA Animal Hospitals, ticks can be active all year round, even in the fall and winter. Flea infestations can continue until a hard freeze occurs outside, NorthJersey.com reports. Pet owners can reduce their animal's risk of getting fleas or ticks by speaking with their veterinarian about preventative treatments.
Remember that cats and dogs share the same fleas. So, if you have an indoor cat, she can become infested by the same fleas your dog brings inside. That's just one reason why flea control for dogs is important even when the weather turns cooler.
If your pet spends a lot of time outdoors this fall, make sure he always has clean water and appropriate shelter from the cold, windy weather. Additionally, the ASPCA recommends feeding animals who exercise heavily outdoors, or who live outdoors, more food during the cooler months. AnimalCompanionsAndTheirPeople.com reminds pet owners to gradually introduce pets to cooler weather and not leave them outdoors in uncomfortably cold conditions for an extended length of time.
Animal experts say that pets may also be at an increased risk of being bitten by a snake during the fall. As snakes prepare for hibernation, they may become irritated and are more likely to bite pets who intrude upon their terrain. It's important to keep your animals away from possible snake-infested areas, especially during the fall, according to the ASPCA.
Other seasonal hazards include Halloween candy and school supplies that can be accidentally ingested by your pet. Remember that foods such as candy, chocolate and other sweets as well as some household products can make your pet sick if eaten.

LONDON – Paige McPherson (Sturgis, S.D.) made it two Olympic medals in two days for the U.S. taekwondo contingent as they wrapped up their competition at the 2012 Games.
The 21-year-old South Dakotan, who trains in Miami, Fla., battled her way back through the repechage round to claim a bronze medal in the women's -67kg division at the ExCel Centre on Friday. She clinched the medal with an 8-3 win over Slovenia's Franka Anic, then took a victory lap around the arena with the American flag.
"That was something I've always dreamed of doing," said McPherson of her celebration. "As soon as I won I knew that it wasn't just myself that got me here, it was my parents, my family, my coaches, my training partners, everyone. That was for them."
To start the day, McPherson not only had to face the nervousness of competing at her first Olympic Games but also the challenge of facing a legend in British taekwondo, two-time world champion and 2008 Olympic bronze medalist Sarah Stevenson. But nothing seemed to faze the young American as she quickly landed a three-point head shot and then extended her lead to 5-0 in the second round and was never in trouble, winning by a count of 5-1.
"I had to respect her because she is a world champion," McPherson said. "I just laid it all out there and I was successful. I fought my fight. When I saw the faces of my family and their eagerness, it just fed my eagerness."
In her quarterfinal match, McPherson would run into a determined Nur Tatar of Turkey. After going up 1-0, McPherson surrendered a two-point turning kick to Tatar, followed by a four-point spin hook kick to the head, resulting in a 6-1 loss that relegated her to the repechage round following Tatar's advancement to the final.
In her first repechage match, McPherson refocused herself and completely dominated Grenada's Andrea St. Bernard, winning by a 15-2 point gap, and capping with a three-point headshot 51 seconds into the third round.
"Ever since I lost I told myself I need to step up my game and give it my all," McPherson said. "I just needed to let everything go."
She followed that up in the medal round, coming back from a 3-1 deficit to Anic and closing out the match with seven straight points, including a three-point head shot in the final round to ice the victory.
Korea's Kyung Seon Hwang won the gold medal in the division, with Tatar taking the silver and Germany's Helena Fromm claiming the other bronze medal.
Things did not go as smoothly for the U.S. in the men's -80kg division which was also contested on Friday.
Fighting on an injured ankle sustained in training two weeks ago, three-time Olympic medalist Steven Lopez (Sugar Land, Texas) lost a 3-2 decision to the top-ranked fighter in the division. Lopez took a 1-0 lead late in the first round of his opening match against Azerbaijan's Ramin Azizov, but Azizov rallied with two scoring kick of his own in the second round to take a 2-1 advantage.
Another score by the Azerbaijan fighter in the third round made it 3-1 before Lopez earned a point for Azizov's second infraction of the contest. Azizov's loss to Italy's Mauro Sarmiento in the quarterfinals ended Lopez's chances to reach the repechage round for the bronze medal and marks his first Olympic Games in four appearances in which he hasn't walked away with a medal, having won gold in 2000 and 2004, and bronze in 2008.
Argentina's Sebastien Eduardo Crismanich won the gold medal in the men's -80kg division, defeating Spain's Nicolas Garcia Hemme in the final. Great Britain's Muhammad Lutalo and Sarmiento took the bronze medals.
Terrence Jennings (Alexandria, Va.) claimed the American's first medal of the competition on Thursday night, winning bronze in the men's -68kg division.

Funeral director ordered to repay customers
BUFFALO – A Fredonia funeral director was ordered to repay customers who made advance payments after he improperly spent the money beforehand.
According to records filed in State Supreme Court in Erie County, Michael R. Fantauzzi, who operates Fantauzzi Funeral Home, admitted accepting advance payments from two customers before subsequently failing to deposit the funds into a trust account, as required by law, and instead spent the money for his own purposes.
His victims include one woman who only discovered that $5,414 her mother paid Fantauzzi was gone after she switched funeral homes and was forced to pay all her mother's cremation and burial costs herself.
When she asked Fantauzzi to return the cash, he told her he had "some financial issues" and had spent it all, court records show.
Fantauzzi owed $11,234 out of $19,234 in advance payments.
Erie County Supreme Court Judge Donna M. Siwek ordered Fantauzzi to repay the outstanding balance as well as $3,000 in costs and penalties for "deceptive and fraudulent practices." The order and judgment was filed March 13.
Fantauzzi was also prohibited from accepting advance payments from any customers in the future.
The case was brought forward by James M. Morrissey, the Assistant Attorney General of Council for the office of State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman.

Share Your Orders Thread
Just cleared my cupboard to 95 teas, so time to buy more? /0\
Della Terra Tea:
1oz: Cactus Flower, Rabbit's Garden, Cafe Vanilla, Lemon Lime Cream Tart, Pineapple Upside Down Cake, Strawberry Sundae and Swiss Mountain.
2oz; Malt Shop (only wanted 1, but didn't want to wait. Can swap of needed)
Free Sample: Jellybean dream
Total: 26.22, and 10.55 shipping to Canada.
Not bad. The sale paid for my ship costs.
That's a nice selection there.
I was VERY surprised with malt shop. We LOVED it. It steeps twice VERY well too.
I had to ship most of my tea collection with the movers… and then realized I didn't leave myself enough for my near-continuous drinking for the next month, month and a half.
So this became a total excuse to go tea shopping lol. So last night I ordered:
From Upton:
ZW45 – 30g packet: Pre-Chingming Top Pai Mu Tan Organic (2 of these by accident)
ZW55 – 40g packet: Pai Mu Tan Imperial
ZW75 – 30g packet: Moonlight White Tea
ZW66 – 30g packet: Pai Mu Tan Select
ZW57 – 30g packet: Organic Pai Mu Tan
ZJ97S – 7g sample: Jasmine Silver Needles (2 of these by accident)
TD13 – 125g packet: Arya Estate GFTGFOP1 Green (EX-35) Organic
ZG10 – 125g packet: Young Hyson
ZG13D – 250g packet: Season's Pick Green Snail
TF18S – 15g sample: Apricot
TT92S – 7g sample: Formosa Pouchong
TG45S – 15g sample: Gunpowder Green Peppermint
TG42S – 15g sample: Green Tea Mango Indica
TG14 – 125g packet: Sweet Almond Green Tea
Red Blossom:
Organic Dragon Pearl Jasmine 8oz
Silk Road:
1 Keemun (Quimen) .25lbs
1 Yunnan Gold Bud (Dian Jin).25lbs
1 Darjeeling .25lbs
I wasn't completely sober when I went shopping, so that caused the 2X ones and the fact that I went waaaay overboard. I'm kinda ashamed by the amount and cost due to the fact that I'm trying to save money right now… but in the long run it'll all get used, so I'm trying not to beat myself up about it too much.
Della Terra- Pineapple Upside Down Cake
(Jelly Bean Dream)
Their coupons were too tempting again, and I was craving pineapple.
So I found some Christmas money (oops) and this is what happened.
Forever Nuts 50g
Bear Trap 50g
Vanilla Orchid 50g
Ceramic Maté Gourd (very excited for this!)
Toasted Marshmallow 100g
Large Read My Lips Collectible Tin
The Spring Collection
And a free tin and free filter bags.
Hiding in the card it came in, it got put in my "to clean up/put away" box. As you can see I haven't really gotten to it yet…
I have a couple of gift cards I haven't used yet and you totally just gave me a (terrible (-y great)) idea…
Just got this one from Chado Tea House:
-Organic Hojicha Green Tea 100g
-Mecha – Bud Tea – "Anzu" 100g
-Matcha – Special Ocassion
-Tama Guricha (Japanese Gunpowder) 100g
-Genmaicha Plust Matcha 100g
-Traditional Genmaicha 100g
-Gyokuro Tea FUJI 100g
And this one from David's Tea is on it's way:
-Banana Dream Pie (Organic) 50g
-Coffee Pu'erh 50g
-Mint Chocolate Rooibos 50g
-Assam Banaspaty 50g
-Jumpy Monkey 50g
-10 tea tins
-4 Double Wall mini cups (Glass)
-100 Tea Filters
I REALLY tried to resist the Della Terra coupon code, but I couldn't help it! I ordered:
Blueberry crumble
White chocolate :)
I know! I never ordered with them before and I recently just ordered with Teajo…Davids Tea…and Art of Tea (again – I got a good price!). I need to quit spending money on tea, lol! There's just so much to still try though!
The white chocolate is delish. Its very strong on the white tea too.
Ooh, I'm so excited! It just shipped! On the white chocolate, I ordered that because I'm still searching for an after dinner tea that I love. I hope I like it because I only had the option to buy 2 oz!
I love my Breville, but the stay-warm feature only lasts for an hour after the tea is brewed, and I am a s…l…o…w tea drinker. I usually pour my second 8-oz. cup about 45 minutes after I poured my first cup.
SO I needed a Thermos to keep the rest of the tea hot longer so I could enjoy the whole pot without microwaving any of the tea. I think I got the cutest one ever: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002VK4MK6/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have a bunch of other orders to make, but I have been curious about the rose black from In Nature Teas for a while and they posted that coupon, plus the tea itself was on sale when I got to the site, so…
Products Ordered:
- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -
1 x The Red Rose – Black Tea
I just put an order in with Della Terra …. Sampler Pack of S'mores, The Malt Shop, White Chocolate, Classic Apple Pie, & Eight Candles. Then a 1 oz package of Blueberry Creme….one tea someone posted on another forum here for best blueberry tea:)
Sounds good! I really like that blueberry one.
More great orders. White chocolate is amazing if you're into white teas. My sister in law loved it and brother hated it as I expected. Their apple pie is amazing so is the malt shop. I dont do marshmallow teas though (:
I did a "HELL YEAH" when I saw Bluebird Tea Co open up international shipping! That rhubarb custard tea was calling to me! Lots of really cool and interesting teas, but I did a small order for now.
Ankara Apple – turkish apple tea with sage? YES!
Rhubarb + Custard – can't wait!
Free samples – link to it from the discussion thread http://steepster.com/discuss/5073-bluebird-tea-co-new-on-here-free-samples?page=3
$20 and change after shipping and money conversion. Also included 10% off promocode

For about 20 years I have had lunch with my friend Janna on Tuesday. I think this is the longest we have ever gone without meeting. I can't wait to see her today and there are many adventures to share.
My mind has been going back to moments with the boys. Those long walks were full of ideas. I think they will always remember the "bee tree". A very large, very beautiful tree that buzzed with bees. As soon as we got near it they would start shushing, walk on tippy toes, and all scrunched down so as not to disturb the bees. We walked under that tree many times and never had a problem. Here's some photos of the "bee tree"

text: Bugs item #29075, was opened at 2011-03-11 14:36 You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=29075&group_id=126 Category: `gem install` command (extensions) Group: next Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: need for a post_install hook Initial Comment: While there is Gem.post_install this cannot be used for gems that want to run some code on installation. In my particular case I need to compile some C++ code -a command line tool- that the gem depends on. It does not come with an extension though. Since there is no post_install hook exposed to the gem lifecycle people use the extconf for things like this. Since that one makes the assumption of building an extension, leaving out the create_makefile() results in Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing ... ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. No builder for extension 'path/to/extconf.rb' Which result in people doing things like this http://blog.costan.us/2008/11/post-install-post-update-scripts-for.html The best solution would certainly be to have some gem lifecyle hooks. But just making less assumption on the extension building would already be a first step. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-14 18:04 Message: If that binary was something that would make sense outside of the gem I would agree - but it doesn't. Following your arguments all native code should live somewhere else - including the normal extensions. That would add a complexity to the system I don't see worth having. A post_install hook certainly gives room for abuse but it's a common pattern found in the various packaging systems. Not sure I would call this a broken feature. In fact I think the current build in assumptions are even worse. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marcus Rueckert (darix) Date: 2011-03-14 16:47 Message: imho this is just the wrong approach, intree packaging like that just sucks. for users as for packagers. maybe the user has your binary installed already just outside of $PATH? while you could walk over $PATH and check if a binary with the desired name exists, you couldnt be sure that behind the filename is really the app you are expecting and that the version is compatible. handle the absence of the binary properly in your code and document for the user that a certain binary is required for proper functioning of your gem. I would really object adding a broken feature like this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-14 16:07 Message: You are probably right. As long as it is tracked as feature or bug I am fine. Thanks - the short term thing works. It's just ugly :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon Forums (jonforums) Date: 2011-03-14 16:04 Message: Fair. IMO this issue should reappear as a feature request rather than stay a bug. And that would likely lead to relooking at plugin/hook visibility. I don't know what Eric wants for next steps on this, but since he asked you to open the issue, maybe it's enough to leave it as a bug. Good luck with whatever short-term solution you choose. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-14 15:22 Message: Sorry, but the --init is more a work around than really an option. IMO a post_install hook for a gem is quite a natural thing to expect. If that's not on the table extconf should at least not make all those assumptions people hack around today. If you just close this issue people will continue to abuse the extconf like I am doing, too now. IMO an empty extconf should just not result in an error and we would be OKish. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon Forums (jonforums) Date: 2011-03-14 14:51 Message: While you could go down the plugin/hook path and split things something like... https://github.com/jonforums/prething https://github.com/jonforums/thing I think it's a bad fit for what you're trying to do...could become a tarbaby trying to keep the `prething` plugin from affecting other gems and coordinating with your main gem. Try building/installing the `prething` and see how globally it affects RG ops. Probably faster and more robust to add an `--init` to your gem's `bin\somthing` executable and document your gem's two-step install process in a `Gem::Specification.post_install_message` and your project doc. Any reason to keep this listed as an open RG bug? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon Forums (jonforums) Date: 2011-03-12 16:18 Message: That snippet from our install script results in a rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb file being generated similar to the following: # :DK-BEG: override 'gem install' to enable RubyInstaller DevKit usage Gem.pre_install do |gem_installer| unless gem_installer.spec.extensions.empty? unless ENV['PATH'].include?('C:\DevKit\mingw\bin') then Gem.ui.say 'Temporarily enhancing PATH to include DevKit...' if Gem.configuration.verbose ENV['PATH'] = 'C:\DevKit\bin;C:\DevKit\mingw\bin;' + ENV['PATH'] end ENV['RI_DEVKIT'] = 'C:\DevKit' ENV['CC'] = 'gcc' ENV['CPP'] = 'cpp' ENV['CXX'] = 'g++' end end # :DK-END While my usage is fairly simple and the only mildly clever parts are (a) checking whether a native extension is being installed, and (b) wrapping the code snippet in markers so I can manage non-clobbering/upgrades of existing operating_system.rb files, I'm still betting that you could use `system` to call out to your toolchain and build your C++ tool in a similar way. It's the combination of the filename/location in combination with the block to Gem.pre_install which sets the pre-install hook that RG calls at the appropriate time during an install. These two places in the source should help: https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/blob/master/lib/rubygems.rb#L65-82 https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/blob/master/lib/rubygems/installer.rb#L140 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-12 11:55 Message: @Jon: Still don't quite understand when you are setting that hook. Why would that code be called on a 'gem install' ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon Forums (jonforums) Date: 2011-03-11 17:05 Message: In the DevKit (MSYS/MinGW toolchain for Windows) subproject of the RubyInstaller we have a Ruby install script which dynamically builds a gem override script that uses the pre-install hook to setup the environment for building native gems on Windows using the DevKit: https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/blob/master/resources/devkit/dk.rb.erb#L46-65 Basically, it automagically brings the DevKit toolchain into the environment when doing something like `gem install bson_ext` Thinking out loud, but I wonder if you can do something similar but use `system` or `IO.popen` to optimistically compile your gem's C++ dependency before the install and abort if you get any errors. Might also want to check/cleanup in post-build. A wild-eyed idea, but it might work if you can split things into "pre-build dependencies" and "build extension" and abort if things go badly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-11 16:46 Message: Maybe I misunderstood but I think Eric said on IRC that the existing post_install is not for gems. Which is why he asked me to open this issue. Jon, can you give an example how that would work? Whether it is pre or post install is not important to me. It's just that one might want to build more than just extension on install. I got that working by abusing the extconf to execute my build and creating an empty Makefile. But that smells. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jon Forums (jonforums) Date: 2011-03-11 16:13 Message: Can you split things up to use the pre-install and post-build hooks which as of 1.5.0 that can cancel gem installation...optimistically compile in the pre-install and abort if needed in either pre-install or post-build? http://blog.segment7.net/2011/01/31/rubygems-1-5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Torsten Curdt (tcurdt) Date: 2011-03-11 14:54 Message: Then you also cannot allow native builds. Where is the difference? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luis Lavena (luislavena) Date: 2011-03-11 14:44 Message: I would say no to this. Most of the users do not check what the gem do inside, so there is a huge potential of security risks on this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=29075&group_id=126

Emerging Leaders Project: Connecting University Resources to Community-Based Organizations Supporting Refugee Resettlement
In recent decades, populations seeking refuge have underscored the limitations of what have been standard approaches to resettlement. Shrinking resources, post-9/11 increase in security measures, and the diverse needs and assets of new arriving populations have exacerbated existing weaknesses in U.S. social service delivery systems and challenged neighborhoods inexperienced in these areas with complex issues of integration (Kerwin, 2011). In response to these issues, the University of Utah, the Utah State Refugee Services Office, and Salt Lake City Community College started an initiative to support the development of Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) and provide leadership and organizational training to existing leaders within these communities. The project created a shared space for community capacity building and integration as a two-way process. This paper will describe the formation and impact of the Emerging Leaders Project, a community-based participatory action research (CBPR) project focused on capacity building with new arriving communities in Salt Lake City.

It may not look much more than a sprawling desert city at first but the appeal of Lima lies in its hidden treasures, from the country's finest museums to the many colonial buildings located in the historic UNESCO-listed centre. Pre-Colombian temples stand amid stately colonial mansions and the wealth of archaeological remains on display is nothing short of staggering. The city's museums rate highly as must-see attractions for the sheer size of their exhibits and the insight provided into the various civilisations of Peru. Other sights include the canary-coloured Franciscan monastery and church, famed for its catacombs lined with the bones of an estimated 70,000 burials, and Puruchuco, the site where 2,000 excellently preserved mummies were unearthed from the large Inca cemetery. Further out of town is Pachacamac, an archaeological complex of a pre-Colombian citadel with palaces and temple pyramids.
Aside from Lima's architectural and archaeological attractions, the city is also known for its delicious and varied cuisine. A profusion of eateries offer everything from fine restaurant dining to humble street stall grub flaunting the influences of Spanish, African, European, Chinese and Japanese immigrants. Lima also boasts a thriving nightlife scene from the trendy international nightclubs to the salsa clubs of San Isidro where you can shake your tail feathers and learn one of South America's hottest dances. Shopaholics will love the busy Polvos Azules Mercados, packed with everything from back catalogue CDs to excellent quality fake brands. Open every day of the week, it's Lima at its most frenetic and well off the beaten track.
To get you started with planning your holiday to Lima, we have showcased below some popular itineraries requested by our clients which we hope will inspire your visit to South America

To support Team USA before the London 2012 Olympic Games, Hilton HHonors launched the Support the Dream program, encouraging Team USA fans to submit good luck messages to U.S. athletes. For every message received, HHonors committed to donating $1 worth of hotel amenities to U.S. Olympic Training facilities.
In the end, HHonors received more than 190,000 messages and have since refurbished the training facilities. Check out some highlights from the stops across the country:
In Colorado Springs, Hilton HHonors shipped 960 blankets to the Olympic Training Center for the athletes to use. In addition, HHonors delivered new shower curtains, liners, and hooks to the USOC headquarters for its new fitness center.
In Chula Vista, 133 new bed pillows, duvet inserts and covers. Hilton Worldwide Team Members from the USOC's Team USA Career Program – Jon Ginolfi, Britney Henry and Ciara Short – showed their support for Team USA athletes by taking time to spend their day refurbishing each dorm room.
The Lake Placid refurbishment wrapped up the Support the Dream campaign. Sixteen local Hilton Worldwide Team Members spent the day moving, unpacking and setting up items in each of the athlete dorm rooms. In addition, Team Members were able to take a mini-tour of the OTC facility, meet with resident athletes during lunch, and watch a freestyle sports demonstration before heading back to Burlington.

Goat milk honey & vanilla smells so good! I got this as part of a gift for someone. I am very pleased with this.
Artisan: Shuchil Soaps
The forests of El Salvador thrive with a lush diversity of native plants that locals have harvested for healing power since the days of the ancient Mayans. In San Salvador, Matilde Carillo de Palomo uses traditional Mayan recipes to create herbal soaps that soothe the body and quiet the mind. Matilde learned her craft from her father, an herbalist who spent decades studying the properties of local flora. Their company, Shuchil Soaps, creates spa-quality products from plants grown on the de Paloma farm, including hibiscus, lemon grass, vanilla, and coconut.
The company prides itself on hiring women from rural areas and paying them fair wages for the first time in their lives. One employee, Bertha Marina Miranda, asked Matilde for work several years ago because her husband's income wasn't enough to put their children through school. Matilde hired Bertha and taught her how to work with herbs and dry hibiscus and lemon grass. Today, Bertha is a master of her craft and all of her children are in school planning professional careers. Her eldest is in college studying to be a chemist.
Another employee, Reina Isabel Guerra, has worked on the Shuchil farm since the 1980s, when most local residents fled due to a devastating civil war. The de Paloma family was committed to keeping their farm despite the constant threat of guerrilla attack, and Reina was one of a handful of loyal employees who stayed on. When the war ended, Matilde's father expressed his gratitude by giving Reina and a handful of other employees each a piece of land to build on. Over twenty years later, Reina and her husband are still with the company and live in a thriving community that includes a school, health clinic, and soccer field.
Shuchil Soap's products have been given a Certified Organic designation in the United States, Germany, and Asia, and a recent grant from the Humane Society of the United States will allow a new line of organic pet shampoos to garner a USDA Certified Humane stamp.
Matilde's next project: training retired women in the craft of soapmaking to ensure their well-being in old age. "The elderly suffer from abandonment in El Salvador, and we want to help them live a life with dignity," she says. "We will also continue to teach pre-Columbian recipes used by our Indians and passed down from generation to generation."

HH Gregg appliance store commercial using crappy "HELP!" cover

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Focus on Making Money
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Don't focus on Italy, focus on the best way to make money, Jim Cramer told "Mad Money" TV show viewers Tuesday. He said the best way to make money in the markets is not to fret over Italy but to focus on everything that's working right here in America.
Cramer said the days when Italy's economy could drag the U.S. down with it are over. The U.S. is stronger, he said, while Italy, and indeed most of Europe, has only slid further into irrelevancy.
Meanwhile, here in the U.S. we have an unbelievable housing recovery underway, one that's led Home Depot (HD) to post what Cramer called the single best earnings so far in 2013.
Home Depot, a stock Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS, posted a strong 7% gain in same-store sales and boosted its dividend by 34%, all while buying back more of its stock and maintaining a positive outlook for the rest of 2013.
When asked where the company is seeing strength, Home Depot management rattled off a list of departments that sounded more like a store directory than pockets of strength. Everything from tools, lumber and lighting to kitchens, bath and decor saw rising sales.
Cramer said he wouldn't buy shares of Home Depot at current levels, but on any weakness he's a buy, buy, buyer. He said the spillover from Home Depot will be good news for all the housing-related stocks including Stanley Black & Decker (SWK) , Eaton (ETN) , Masco (MAS) , Lumber Liquidators (LL) and countless others.
Put Italy in perspective, Cramer concluded, and buy some Home Depot.
Executive Decision
In the "Executive Decision" segment, Cramer spoke with Chip Johnson, CEO of Carrizo Oil & Gas (CRZO) , a stock that's fallen 20% since Cramer last spoke with Johnson in March 2012. The company just posted a 19-cent-a-share earnings beat.
Johnson said Carrizo is still building value for its shareholders. He said the company's proven reserves are now valued at $1.4 billion. Adding on unproven assets, that figure is likely north of $3.6 billion. Unlike many drillers that have been slow to transition away from natural gas and into the more lucrative oil markets, Carrizo has been able to move quickly, said Johnson, which is only helping production increase ahead of schedule.
When asked about where Carrizo's oil goes after it's drilled, Johnson said his company sells its oil to companies, which haul it to the Gulf coast via truck, rail or barge. There, he said, it is sold at the higher Brent crude prices and usually refined into diesel fuel and sold into the Latin American marke,t which offers the highest margins for the refiners.

Whether you are Irish or Irish-American, you're probably immensely proud of your surname. Many Irish families declare their roots by displaying the crest of their clan in their homes. But which last names win in the battle of Irishness? IrishCentral took a look at the most common surnames in Ireland in order to come up with a top 10 list.
Smith and Murray are two of the most common, but one is of British origins and the other's Scottish, so they didn't make the cut.
Here, then, are the 10 most Irish last names. Many others were featured in our Irish Clans Month series – click through to learn more history and fun facts.
Take a look at the rundown in this video and you can find more info about the names themselves below.
1. Murphy – The Sea Battlers
Murphys – you win the prize for most common and widespread name in Ireland, especially in County Cork.
This surname, which means "sea battler," translates to Gaelic as MacMurchadh (son of Murchadh) and O'Murchadh (descendent of Murchadh), a derivation of the first name of Murchadh or Murragh.
O'Murchadh families lived in Wexford, Roscommon and Cork, in which county it is now most common, with the MacMurchadhs of the Sligo and Tyrone area responsible for most of the Murphys in Ulster.
The name was first anglicized to MacMurphy and then to Murphy in the early 19th century.
2. Kelly – The Bright-Headed Ones
Kelly comes second to Murphy as the most common surname in Ireland.
The Kellys are all over Ireland; the name originates from around 10 unrelated ancient clans or septs. These include O'Kelly septs from Meath, Derry, Antrim, Laois, Sligo, Wicklow, Kilkenny, Tipperary, Galway and Roscommon.
O'Kelly comes from the Gaelic O Ceallaigh, meaning "descended from Ceallach," an Irish chieftan. "Ceallach" means war or contention. It is an ancient first name that is no longer used as a first name in Ireland. However, Kelly is a popular first name for women in the U.S.
3. O'Sullivan – The Hawkeyed Ones
Kellys may have bright heads, but O'Sullivans have hawk-like eyes.
The O'Sullivans or Sullivans are one of the most populous of the Munster families. In Irish, O'Sullivan is O'Suilleabhin, and there is no doubt that origin of the name comes from the word súl (eye), though whether it is to be taken as "one-eyed" or "hawkeyed" is in dispute among scholars.
Originally lords of the territory around Cahir, County Tipperary in the 12th century, they migrated to what is now west Cork and south Kerry, where the name is still very prominent.

4. Walsh – The Welshmen
The meaning of this "Welsh" name is pretty straightforward.
The name Walsh is one of the most common of the Norman associated names found in Ireland. It seems to have been the name used by the many different groups of Welsh people who arrived in Ireland with the Normans during the 12th century.
The name comes from Welsh, which simply means Welshman, and its early Norman form was "Le Waleys." But this became gradually anglicized to Walsh.
5. O'Brien – The Noblemen
O'Briens are pretty lucky – they are descended from one of the greatest and most famous Irish kings.
The name O'Brien, also spelled O'Bryan or O'Brian, translates to Ó Briain in Gaelic, which means "of Brian."
The name indicates descendance from Brian Boru, the celebrated High King of Ireland. This gives O'Briens leave to call themselves "high" and "noble."
Most O'Briens can be found in counties Clare, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford.
6. Byrne – The Ravens
Byrnes can be found flying around all over Counties Wicklow and Dublin.
Byrne, originally O'Byrne, comes from the Gaelic O'Broin meaning "descended from Bran," an 11th century King of Leinster.
The O'Byrnes were chieftains of what is now County Kildare until the Norman invasion when they were driven from their lands and migrated (ha!) into the mountains of County Wicklow.
There, together with their allies the O'Tooles, they successfully resisted Norman and English domination for centuries.
7. Ryan – The Little Kings
The meaning of the Irish name Ryan comes from the old Gaelic word "righ" and the old Irish diminutive of "an," which together form the meaning of "little king."
The name Ryan comes from the Irish name O' Riain – a contraction of the older Irish form O'Mulriain, which is now virtually extinct.
Ryan is also an extremely popular first name, especially in Britain and the U.S.
The Ryan family motto is 'Malo More Quam Foedari,' which, when translated, means 'I would Rather Die than be Disgraced.' And they call them "little" kings…
8. O'Connor – Patrons of Warriors
They might not be warriors themselves, but at least O'Connors descend from them!
The O'Connor name, with its varied spellings, doesn't spring from a common source. The name arose in five areas of Ireland: Connacht, Kerry, Derry, Offaly and Clare and split into six distinct septs.
The most prominent sept is that of the Connacht O'Connors who gave us the last two High-Kings of Ireland: Turlough O'Connor (1088-1156) and Roderick O'Connor (1116-1198). They trace their heritage and name from the Irish "Ua Conchobhair," meaning from Conchobhar, a king of Connacht.
9. O'Neill – From Niall of the Nine Hostages
The O'Neill family traces its history back to 360 A.D. to the legendary warrior king of Ireland, Niall of the Nine Hostages, who is said to have been responsible for bringing St. Patrick to Ireland.
Niall is also said to have been incredibly fertile – he has 3 million descendants worldwide.
"O'Neill" is derived from two separate Gaelic words, "Ua Niall," which means grandson of Niall, and "Neill" meaning "champion."
Ireland's O'Neills were known by the nickname "Creagh," which comes from the Gaelic word "craobh" meaning branch, because they were known to camouflage themselves to resemble the forest when fighting the Norsemen. Crafty fellows, those O'Neills.
10. O'Reilly – Descendants of Raghaillach
The O'Reillys round out the top 10 most popular names in Ireland.
Their family name is derived from the Gaelic "O'Raghailligh," meaning descendants of Raghaillach.
The O'Reillys were the most powerful sept of the old Gaelic kingdom of Breffny (Cavan and the surrounding counties), and the family is still prominent in the area.
Reilly, often spelled Riley, has become a trendy given name in the U.S., for both baby boys and girls.

For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

In Years Past
100 Years Ago
In 1913, the Fairview School in Corry at the corner of Main Street and Second Avenue was threatened with destruction by fire on this morning and only the timely discovery of the blaze prevented the old frame building from being burned to the ground. The fire started from an unknown cause in the basement of the building near the heating plant. It had gained great headway by the time the alarm was turned in. The firemen experienced considerable difficulty in fighting the flames on account of the dense smoke. It was expected that the building would be repaired within the next few days.
Although sweeter singing had been heard in the First Methodist Episcopal Church at Jamestown on many occasions, none had ever been greeted with more downright enthusiasm than that occasioned at the annual meeting of the Methodist Brotherhood when a chorus of 50 veterans of the Civil War sang "Marching Through Georgia" and "John Brown's Body." There was not much real music to it, to tell the truth, but there was something about the scene and the singing which aroused the greatest enthusiasm and the applause burst forth again and again.

In 1938, the Jamestown pilgrimage to Philadelphia and Wilmington, Del., in June for the celebrations marking the 300th anniversary of the first Swedish settlement in America would be made by chartered Erie train making the trip from Jamestown to Philadelphia without change. It was estimated by heads of local groups making the celebration plans that there would be fully 400 persons aboard when the train pulled out of the local station. Included in the Jamestown party would be the Jamestown concert band of 30 pieces, and a male chorus of 60 voices selected from the local Swedish male choruses.
Traffic Officer Vernon D. Chipman of the Jamestown Police Department operated the 15-watt station transmitter during a demonstration of the new RCA two-way police radio system in Jamestown Thursday. Det. Lt. F. Bernard Clark and Mayor Harry C. Erickson watched as Chief Edwin M. Nyholm conversed from a police car with the operator at police headquarters. Officials pronounced the tests eminently satisfactory. RCA engineers told them equipment for the station and five police cars would cost about $5,000.

In 1963, two Lakewood youths, age 13 and 14, were apprehended at 1:40 a.m. on Route 20, Town of Ripley, and charged with driving a stolen car. The pair was alleged to have taken a car from the lot of Ticknor's Garage, Lakewood, at about 7:30 p.m. the previous evening after entering the garage to get dealer's plates. The youths were turned over to their parents to await family court action. Troopers E.L. Milks and C.C. Lee of the Westfield station, apprehended the pair.
Cattaraugus Creek swelled and overflowed the previous morning. During the day the creek continued to pour water into lowlands on the Chautauqua County side of the waterway and by 11 p.m. Routes 5 and 20 were closed to all passenger cars. Tractor-trailers were able to crawl through the 3-foot high water. There was no panic among long-time residents evacuated from their homes. In the morning there were 50 persons left in the Sunset Bay Fire Hall. Two men identified only as Jones and Burghardt, were isolated for some time on a picnic table. Passing firemen in a boat attempted to rescue them but the two warned them off because of "floating debris and swirling waters." They were reportedly rescued later in the night.

In 1988, all that was left of Frank and Madeline Lucas' home on Hamlet Road, Villenova, was charred ruins. It was destroyed by a fire of unknown origin the previous afternoon. The fire was reported by their son, Richard, at 12:44 p.m. He was in the basement when he heard a loud noise upstairs in the kitchen area. He said he left the basement through an outside door and found flames shooting out of the kitchen windows. Darlene Anderson, a daughter, said the family had no insurance on the home. "They lost everything. After all these years, they have nothing," she said. Anderson said that her brother burned his arm saving one of the family's dogs. The heat of the fire was so intense it melted a telephone cable leaving homes in the area without service for several hours.
Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., was slated for two appearances Saturday in Jamestown. He was scheduled to conduct a public town meeting in the Crystal Ballroom Senior Citizens Center in the Hotel Jamestown. The meeting would be open to the public and anyone wishing to ask the senator questions or offer comments regarding any issue relating to the federal government was welcome to attend, according to Jamestown Mayor Steven B. Carlson, who would moderate. Moynihan was also scheduled as the keynote speaker at the Chautauqua County Democratic Committee annual dinner at the Jamestown Holiday Inn.
